Chapter 683: Chapter 682 - 683: 361: Demon God

Over ten minutes later.

The Xuanhuang Refining Qi Furnace finished melting, and just like before, the demon corpses inside turned into ashes, leaving behind a few drops of essence blood.

With a wave of his hand, the essence blood turned into ruby-like crystals and landed in Su Nan’s palm.

A total of eight pieces.

“From the two early-stage King-level corpses before, I got 8 drops of essence blood.”

“Now from one mid-stage King-level corpse, I also got 8 drops of essence blood, which means that from one late-stage King-level demon corpse, I can get 16 drops of essence blood, and from one peak King-level corpse, I can get 32 drops of essence blood.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Golden light flashed in Su Nan’s eyes, as this amount of essence blood was much more than what he could obtain by exchanging demon corpses from Tiangong Pavilion!

“Adding the previous eight drops, I now have 16 drops of king-level demon essence blood on me, and I also have a peak King-level demonic beast that I killed yesterday at Mountain Deity Slope, as well as three mid-stage King-level demonic beasts waiting to be killed in my Universe in the Sleeve.”

“With that said, the amount of king-level demon essence blood on me has reached 72 drops! That’s enough for the second level breakthrough of the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture.”

He didn’t realize how much he had until he counted, and it was quite surprising!

With 72 drops of essence blood, if it were before, he would have to hunt 72 Demon Kings, and although there would be that many Demon Kings in the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, if he really did so, he would be afraid that the Demon Monarch would come to kill him.

“The Xuanhuang Refining Qi Furnace is truly deserving of its ability to trace back to the origin, its essence blood output rate is extremely high!” Su Nan was delighted.

But the most important thing was the ancient demon essence blood.

He immediately looked at the eight drops of essence blood, his eyes filled with anticipation.

However, he was disappointed again soon after.

Among the eight drops of essence blood, seven had the same color, all blood-red, while only one drop of essence blood contained traces of purple.

In an instant, he understood that among these eight drops of essence blood, only one drop had reached the level of ancient demon essence blood, while the remaining seven were just ordinary essence blood.

“Only one drop of ancient demon essence blood, why is this? Could it be that the bloodline regression is not thorough enough?”

Su Nan frowned, as he initially thought that all the refined essence blood would be ancient demon essence blood, but it seemed that he had thought too much of it.

“Well, it’s good to have even one drop.”

If he could extract one drop of ancient demon essence blood from a single demonic beast, then he would only need to hunt twelve demon kings to gather enough ancient demon essence blood for his three roles, which wasn’t too many.

Putting away the essence blood, he checked the World Chat once again.

More than ten minutes after sending the message, he finally received a reply from “Blazingfire Boy.”

The two of them added each other as friends, and after a brief conversation, they quickly confirmed the trading location.

“Yongzhou County, it’s not too far.”

Blazingfire Boy’s in-game name was Li Zheng, a Spirit-level Early-stage player from the third public beta test, currently in a small town in Yongzhou County.

As one of the two counties that were first breached during the last human crisis, Yongzhou County was very close to the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge and was one of the three counties bordering the ridge.

“No choice but to let the avatar run.”

The power of the River of Time was almost consumed, and his main body was about to breakthrough soon, so this kind of errand work could only be entrusted to his avatar Wang Nan once again.

“However, I should still use foresight before that, just in case the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg is also of no use to me, I won’t be making a wasted trip.”

He hadn’t used any foresight opportunities today, and now was the time to use them.

Death’s Foresight activated.

45 foresight opportunities were consumed in an instant.

“45 foresights, about more than two days of time, I wonder how I’ll die this time?”

“Perhaps it will be because of my cheap big brother!”

Seeing the consumed opportunities, Su Nan immediately thought of various possibilities.

[You learn that an Outsider in Yongzhou County has obtained a Vermilion Bird Stone Egg, and you plan to send your avatar to exchange it for the Moon Soul Pure Gold.]

[Six hours later, your avatar leaves Ten Thousand Demon Ridge and arrives in Yongzhou County, finding the Outsider and obtaining the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg from him.]

[Through the avatar’s teleportation, the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg reaches your main body’s hands, and you attempt to use the power of the Life and Death Mirror to reassemble the Vermilion Bird’s Fate Pattern.]

[Unfortunately, you are disappointed, as the Vermilion Bird’s Fate Pattern is unique, and the Life and Death Mirror in your hand is broken, its power insufficient to resurrect the Vermilion Bird’s Fate Pattern.]

[In desperation, you attempt to burn the stone egg with the Li Fire Essence, hoping that the Li Fire Essence can cause some change to the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg.]

[Vermilion Bird is born from the Li Fire, and the Li Fire Essence has a nurturing effect on the Vermilion Bird’s egg, aiding in the hatching process. However, the Vermilion Bird egg in your hand has completely lost its vitality, and the Li Fire Essence has no effect on it.]

“Li Fire Essence is also useless?”

Su Nan was disappointed. The reason he wanted to exchange for the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg was that he had the Life and Death Mirror in his hands and also the Li Fire Essence.

Now that neither of these items had any effect, if he continued to exchange with Li Zheng, it would undoubtedly be a huge loss.

“The foresight said that the Life and Death Mirror in my hand is broken and not enough to revive the Vermilion Bird’s Fate Pattern. If I find other Life and Death Mirror Fragments and repair the Life and Death Mirror, will I be able to revive it?”

Su Nan pondered for a moment, thinking whether he should first exchange for the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg, wait until he gathers all the Life and Death Mirror Fragments to revive the Vermilion Bird. After all, the other party wanted Moon Soul Pure Gold, which he couldn’t use anyway.

However, as soon as this thought emerged, he shook his head again.

Life and Death Mirror Fragments were not easy to collect. It was already his great fortune to be able to get two pieces now. To gather them all, he might have a lifetime of difficulty ahead.
