Immortality

Chapter 52: Harvesting Blood (Seeking monthly ticket)

Fang Sheng didn't expect this either.

The bamboo dragon he met a month ago actually had the Zhu Yuan blood essence that he needed.

Moreover, the number is so large.

Fifty portions of essence and blood, totaling to twenty-five points of progress.

A quarter of a Red Kite Dao Fruit.

But this is where the trouble lies: the number is simply too large.

To consume these fifty portions of essence and blood, at least seven hundred and fifty spirit stones are needed.

Fang Sheng was in deep thought.

Although this amount is not small for him, it is still affordable.

He also had more than 300 low-grade Fire Element Pills and a batch of mid-grade Fire Spirit Pills on him.

These pills alone are worth six hundred spirit stones.

Including the spirit stones that he has not yet spent, his current net worth is over one thousand spirit stones.

"However, if a Qi Refining Level 4 cultivator takes out more than 700 Spiritual Stones, it might attract the attention of the Tribulation Cultivator..."

"It is difficult to guarantee that there will be no traitors leaking information within the Eight Directions Alliance."

Fang Sheng never gambles on this possibility.

He directly hooked up with three sellers other than Zhulong:

"I have collected the blood essence of these three people."

"Okay, the handover may take several days, and verification will be required..."

The so-called verification only requires showing a sum of spirit stones to simply prove one's financial resources.

Fang Sheng threw out a storage bag and took out two hundred spirit stones from it.

The maid finished the calculation calmly, then stood up and left, going to inform several sellers.

Fang Sheng is lucky.

The three sellers were all near the market and the transaction was completed on the same day.

A total of ten portions of blood essence and a transaction amount of more than one hundred spirit stones.

For someone in the middle stage of Qi Refining, this is quite normal.

after that.

Fang Sheng did not leave Shenhufang City, but found an inn to stay in.

He still didn't want to give up the great treasure of Bamboo Dragon.

But he planned to take a detour.

The next few days.

From time to time, orders for Zhu Yuan's blood essence would appear within the Eight Directions Taoist Alliance.

Some of these orders were placed by low-level independent cultivators in the market town who specialized in running errands for the cultivators and earning some spirit stones.

Some of them simply come from some monks who conceal their faces and have mysterious identities.

Moreover, among these mysterious monks.

Some practice water magic, some practice fire magic, and some practice gold magic...

Add up the amounts of all Zhu Yuan's blood essence orders.

There are as many as sixty-five copies.

Soon, Zhu Long's fifty portions of Red Kite's blood essence were split up to satisfy these orders...

……

Three days later, inside the inn.

Fang Sheng looked at the fifty portions of Zhu Yuan's blood essence in his hand and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Those monks who placed orders were naturally those he pretended to be.

Relying on the Nuwa Emperor Technique, he changed his practice method many times without arousing almost any suspicion.

Even if someone discovered the clues, it would be impossible to imagine it.

These monks were all alone, and at most they thought they were a small group acting together.

"Although it's a bit risky, compared to these fifty portions of blood essence, this little risk is worth it."

"Moreover, 750 spirit stones on one person is completely different from 750 spirit stones on a group of people..."

Without waiting to return to Ziyan Valley, Fang Sheng placed his palm directly on the blood essence:
"absorb!"

Swish!
[Red Fire Red Kite Dao Fruit - Cultivating]

【Progress: 30/100】

[Effect: Barbarian bloodline, born wild, can understand the use of the Red Kite Spirit Fire. ]

"This time, I got sixty portions of Red Kite's blood essence!"

"The progress of the second Red Kite Dao Fruit is close to one third."

"Also, I have an order for fifteen blood essences from the Eight Directions Alliance, and the spirit stones have already been prepaid."

"From now on, as long as the Red Yuan's blood essence appears, the Eight Directions Dao Alliance will help me intercept it until the order is completed..."

Fang Sheng couldn't help but sigh at the thoughtful service.

There is a reason why the Eight Directions Taoist Alliance was able to develop over hundreds of years and become the largest foundation-building force in the eastern branch of the Zihe River.

Next.

Just come and check the order status every once in a while and settle the commission before leaving.

Fang Sheng also made some unexpected discoveries in Shenhufang Market.

"Zhulong, the direct descendant of the beast taming lineage of Qianhuo Dao Palace."

"Fifty-five strands of Dao rhyme, medium spiritual roots, only twenty-three years old this year, fourteen years of cultivation, seventh level of Qi Refining."

"Half a month ago, I placed an order with the weapon refinery in Fang City, requesting the refinement of a top-grade magical weapon for female cultivators. The price was over 2,000 spirit stones..."

Looking at the information in his hand that cost five spirit stones.

Fang Sheng couldn't help but sigh.

The teachings given directly by the Taoist master are extraordinary.

"This person is close to having a superior spiritual root, and his cultivation limit is at least in the late stage of foundation building. And according to common sense, he should be close to the seventh level of perfection now..."

That's not the most important thing.

Compared with qualifications and cultivation, Fang Sheng actually values ​​Zhulong's identity more.

He chewed over the few words in the intelligence carefully:

"A direct descendant of the Beast Taming lineage."

“No wonder they can produce so much blood essence from the Red Falcon. There must be tamed Red Fire Falcons in the Qianhuo Dao Palace…”

It is even possible that Zhulong himself tamed the Red Fire Kite.

……

Before returning to Ziyan Valley.

Fang Sheng took a detour and went to the Sishuifang Market.

The time to pick up the blood of the wild rhinoceros there has arrived.

He took away twelve portions of essence and blood, and at the same time reserved the portions for the next three months.

Then it took him a night to get back to Zheng's house.

Early morning hours.

As soon as Fang Sheng walked down the mountain, he frowned subconsciously.

White cloths were hung at the entrances of several Zheng family dojos...

At this time, many Zheng family cultivators walked out of the mourning hall with gloomy faces.

Among these people.

Fang Sheng saw the figure of Taoist Shuimu at a glance.

He was standing in the crowd, looking a little confused.

Fang Sheng walked over.

Without waiting to ask, he followed Shuimu's gaze and saw the tablet in the mourning hall:

"Zheng Chilong?"

It was an unexpected name!

Fang Sheng originally thought that Zheng Jinli had passed away.

result……

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Taoist Shuimu turned around with a gloomy expression.

He knew the doubts in Fang Sheng’s mind.

"Just yesterday, the Red Dragon forcibly attacked the foundation building, but failed."

"..."

Fang Sheng was silent for a moment, expressed his condolences, and then left quietly.

On the way out.

More monks from the Zheng family continued to arrive.

Everyone had a gloomy look on their face, and some couldn't help cursing Zheng Chilong, blaming him for not understanding the overall situation.

It is also in the stories told by these people.

Only then did Fang Sheng gradually understand the details of the matter.

Before, after Taoist Shuimu got married.

Zheng Jinli has already started arranging a marriage for Zheng Chilong.

The meaning is self-evident.

However, Zheng Chilong still refused to give up his dream of building a foundation.

After several years of recuperation, he had already recovered his cultivation level, and after the stimulation of marriage, his spirits were also forcibly boosted.

So, before he settled the marriage.

Without telling anyone, he tried to build his foundation directly in the Zheng family's core dojo.

"In the end, no miracle happened. Zheng Chilong lost control of his spiritual energy and his meridians were severed and he died..."

"This time, the Zheng family has completely lost the possibility of being promoted to a foundation-building family."

Zheng Chilong's funeral lasted for half a month.

Fang Sheng received another bad news.

Niu Dan's condition is getting worse and worse, and his vitality is gradually weakening...
