God of Pets

Chapter 527 Blood-Coagulating Jade Bodhi

"I'm not dead yet. I think I can still struggle a bit more," Bai Xiuyan said with a wry smile.

"Sorry I'm early. Please continue. I'll come back later." Upon hearing this, Chen Guan pulled out the sheathed jade sword stuck in the ground and spurred his horse to leave. However, the people's pets were surrounding them and did not move aside.

"Excuse me, could you move aside?" Chen Guan looked at the pet owners.

No one answered him; instead, the pet stone golem closest to Chen Guan punched him.

These people recognized Chen Guan; after all, he and Teng Mingli had carried the sword for Bai Xiuyan all the way here, so it would be really hard not to recognize them in Taishan City.

Therefore, they also knew that Chen Guan's level was not high; he was just a young man who had just entered the cave heaven. How strong could he be?
Although their main battle pets had been killed by Bai Xiuyan, the pets they were using now were just backups, not as high in level or as strong, but still not something a young person who had just entered the cave realm could contend with.

This stone golem's level is just 51, which is considered the gatekeeper of the Six Awakenings, and its strength is in the lower tier among the Six Awakenings.

Even so, the stone golem's abilities were enough to overwhelm the Four Senses Mystic Spirits and cultivators.

Chen Guan watched as the stone man threw a punch, the energy on the fist exploding like a bomb. The power of the explosion alone was enough to pulverize any hard material.

Chen Guan quickly retreated, simultaneously retrieving the black jade unicorn horse, and landed beside Bai Xiuyan.

The Five Thunder Orthodox Dharma in Bai Xiuyan's hand flickered slightly, and the stone man's fist and head fell to the ground together. The force of the punch was shattered and failed to erupt.

“They don’t even spare me, a corpse collector. They’re beasts.” Chen Guan handed the piercing sword in his hand to Bai Xiuyan and said, “These beasts deserve to die. It’s better for them to die than for you. You should kill them all.”

Bai Xiuyan reached out and took the Transparent Flash Sword, and laughed, "I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult. I only have enough energy to kill three people right now, but I'm afraid I can't kill all these people."

His gaze swept over the remaining seven cultivators who were still capable of fighting, and those cultivators immediately retreated instinctively.

Bai Xiuyan said he could kill three more, so he definitely could kill three more. Nobody wants to be one of the three who get killed.

"Because of the injuries on your body?" Chen Guan asked.

"The power of the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist penetrated my body, blocking my body from absorbing vital energy. So every bit of vital energy I use is gone, and it cannot be replenished," Bai Xiuyan said.

"If you can't absorb the free-flowing primordial energy of heaven and earth, does that mean you can't take pills to recover? Don't tell me that someone of your wealth doesn't have any pills to restore your primordial energy," Chen Guan said.

“Yes, but it’s useless. The Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist doesn’t block the absorption of free-floating primordial energy from heaven and earth, but rather prevents the body from reacting with the primordial energy. The primordial energy cannot be integrated into the body and is therefore difficult to use,” Bai Xiuyan said.

"Isn't there any other way?" Chen Guan asked.

"Yes, as far as I know, there are three secret techniques in the world that can counter the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist, but none of the people who know those three secret techniques are currently in the Tai Shan Secret Realm."

"Besides the secret method, among the pills I know, there is one that can also counteract the power of the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist. That is the Reincarnation Pill of the Medicine King. Unfortunately, the Medicine King has long since passed away, and the recipe for the Reincarnation Pill has been lost. The number of Reincarnation Pills remaining in the world is very small, and they are extremely difficult to obtain."

"Besides that, there is no other way to counter the power of the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist, which is beyond my knowledge."

"Is there really no other way?" Chen Guan sighed. "These are the only solutions I know. If we can't find a solution, there is a compromise, but it's quite difficult and we can't implement it right now," Bai Xiuyan said.

"Tell me about it," Chen Guan said.

"Do you really think we're dead?" The living cultivator glared angrily at them, as the two of them were actually chatting right in front of them.

Suddenly, the piercing sword in Bai Xiuyan's hand moved slightly. The cultivator who was speaking in the distance had a bit of blood between his eyebrows, which then slowly bloomed, like a blood-red flower growing larger and larger, before collapsing to the ground with a thud and dying.

"I can still kill two more," Bai Xiuyan said calmly.

The remaining cultivators were horrified. For a moment, no one dared to utter a sound, nor did they dare to send their pets to rush forward, for fear of becoming Bai Xiuyan's next target.

"What compromise?" Chen Guan asked again.

"After being hit by the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist, I cannot absorb the free-flowing primordial energy of heaven and earth or the primordial energy of pills. There is only one kind of rare and precious material that is exempt from this restriction, namely the Blood-Coagulating Jade Bodhi. Moreover, it is necessary for the Blood-Coagulating Jade Bodhi to be over ten thousand years old in order to break through the power barrier of the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist and for its primordial energy to be absorbed by the body."

"But it can only absorb the damage; it cannot remove the damage caused by the Xuan Tian Wu Di Fist."

"Moreover, the Blood-Coagulated Jade Bodhi itself is an extremely rare natural treasure. It is already rare to see one normally. A Blood-Coagulated Jade Bodhi that is ten thousand years old is probably only easy to see in the Great Cave Heaven."

"However, within that Great Cave Heaven, no matter how strange and terrifying spirits appear, even the strongest beings in the Great Cave Heaven must risk their lives to go out and harvest the Blood-Coagulating Jade Bodhi. The quantity produced is also limited, and most of it is used up by the cultivators of the Great Cave Heaven themselves, with very little able to flow into the market."

"What did I think it was? It's just a ten-thousand-year-old blood-coagulated jade bodhi seed! You should have said so earlier," Chen Guan said with a smile.

"You have a Blood-Coagulated Jade Bodhi?" Bai Xiuyan asked, somewhat surprised.

No one else believed that Chen Guan would have such a thing.

Bai Xiuyan said that this person possessed the same rare and precious material; what a coincidence!

This was no coincidence; Chen Guan had gathered various rare and precious materials and placed them on Huangni Island, just in case he was short of certain materials when refining pills in the future.

They said that any rare and precious material found in the Secret Garden of the Devouring Spirit God could be found here by Chen Guan.

"Is this it?" Chen Guan took out a fruit that looked like a jujube, with a texture like green jade, and seemed to be covered with blood streaks inside, and tossed it to Bai Xiuyan.

“It really is a Blood-Condensed Jade Bodhi. Judging from the maturity of the blood streaks on it, it must be over ten thousand years old.” Bai Xiuyan said, but then tossed the fruit back to Chen Guan.

"Why aren't you eating?" Chen Guan asked in surprise.

"The amount of vital energy a Blood-Coagulated Jade Bodhi can restore to me is limited, not enough to help me break through the encirclement. Eating it would be a waste. Such a treasure is hard to come by, so I'd better keep it; it will be more useful in the future." Bai Xiuyan looked at the group and said, "Let him go. If he doesn't leave, I'll eat the Blood-Coagulated Jade Bodhi. The vital energy I gain should be enough to kill you all. Besides, he originally had nothing to do with this matter. Your master didn't order you to kill him, did he?"

The group hesitated, not expecting that this person actually possessed a Blood-Coagulating Jade Bodhi.
