AST 2341 - Demon-Refining Thunderbird, Good Item: Blood Strengthening Pellet

This Thunderbird was the purebreed of an ancient species . It was certainly great but not incredible . Qing Shui could kill it instantly using the Stellar Transposition . Yet, he suddenly thought that it might be better not to kill it .

Activating his spiritual sense, the Divine Weapon Flying Sword appeared in front of Qing Shui .

Rule of Nine Continents, Art of Pursuing!

Go!

Qing Shui used the Divine Weapon Flying Sword in a way so fast that it was beyond description . It was as if the attack was unavoidable .

Pfft!

The sword penetrated the wing of Thunderbird instantly and made a terrifyingly loud scream . This was just the beginning as the Flying Sword continued piercing through the Thunderbird continuously . Qing Shui used the Nine Continents Mountain and made continuous strikes .

The current Nine Continents Mountain was daunting, it was able to crash and injure the Thunderbird when the Shield Attack appeared . Painful screams of the Thunderbird were heard while its feathers fell down ceaselessly .

‘It’s about time’, Qing Shui thought . He then took out the Demon Refining Furnace and used the oppression .

The Thunderbird let out a high-pitched yell when it saw the Demon Refining Furnace, as if it saw something frightening . However, it was already too late . The Demon Refining Furnace expanded immediately and oppressed the Thunderbird . Next, it appeared in the Demon Refining Furnace .

The Demon Refining Furnace shrunk and fell into Qing Shui's hand . He had a look at the Thunderbird which was as big as an egg now . Then, he started the refinement . It had been ages since he last refined . The Demon Refining Furnace upgraded a lot in terms of the realm . It was much stronger in refinement now . It was able to oppress completely .

Of course, a treasure would be based on strength and it could not oppress all levels of strength . The stronger the opponent was, the stronger the power of repulsion . If one could not handle the power of repulsion, he would suffer huge damage .

Qing Shui realized it was getting dark so he entered the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal and continued his journey on the next day .

The Demon Refining Furnace was stronger now so Qing Shui did not have to get involved in the normal refinement anymore . However, it would require a longer time . Qing Shui was not worried about time . He had the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal after all . He had plenty of time and nothing to do .

Ten days later in the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, Qing Shui looked at the Demon Refining Furnace . The Thunderbird had vanished entirely, leaving behind a violet pellet the size of a walnut . It was crystal clear, giving out a tempting and fresh fragrance .

Qing Shui took the pellet out and observed it using the Heavenly Vision Technique .

Blood Strengthening Pellet, able to increase the amount of some special bloodline . The increment depended on the strength of the target bloodline . The stronger the blood was, the smaller the increment . The increase would be from one to five percent .

Qing Shui was rather excited as he found out that Demon Refining could produce an item like this . It was definitely a good item despite the small increment . How many purebreed demonic beasts were required in refinement to complement for the little increment? Moreover, the outcome was not absolute . The Blood Strengthening Pellet would not be produced each and every time .

Qing Shui thought of his demonic beasts . The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant had 18% of primordial blood now . He wanted to upgrade the blood of the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant so that it would become stronger . Also, there was the Dark Phoenix, Dragon Spider, the Dragon Slaying Beast, the Diamond White Tiger King…

It seemed like he needed to refine the Ancient Purebreed Demonic Beast now . However, they were all very strong and powerful . Plus, there were only a few of them . If they were from a tribe, there must be someone scary and daunting . If he had refined their offspring, they would probably seek revenge .

Qing Shui gave the Blood Strengthening to the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant . He was confused to find out that the increase was only 1% .

There was 19% primordial blood now . 20% was the first critical point which could increase its strength greatly . However, the strength increment for 19% was relatively low . Primordial blood was daunting . It was ranked within the top ten or higher among all of the others .

The Dragon Slaying Beast ate the heart of Golden Primordial Bear and awakened the primordial blood previously . Yet, it was so thin that it was negligible . Using the Blood Strengthening Pellet should be able to increase its primordial blood .

Qing Shui made an Origin Essence Pill out of the remaining items . It was meant for strength improvement . It would neither increase the blood nor change it .

Qing Shui shook his head . Hopefully, the Dragon Slaying Beast and the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant would become powerful with primordial blood in the future . He wished that they would achieve the level of the Golden Primordial Bear, which would absolutely be able to overturn the world with only 70 to 80% primordial blood .

Nevertheless, this was just an idle thought . If he could find enough purebreed demonic beasts in the future, they might not be able to fully absorb them after frequent usage . There was only a one percent increase during the first time . Qing Shui was afraid that the subsequent ten intakes of Blood Strengthening Pellets would be one percent as well . It was totally possible that it might even become immune to it and showed no other changes .

It was always great to have a wish . As for the outcome, he should not overthink it . He should be happy with the slightest increment . Things should never be forced and a man who was contented would be a happy man . He had enough now . It was unnecessary to pursue perfection in everything . Moreover, there was nothing perfect . Even 100% was not the highest limit . There were 200% and even 300% .

Bailan City!

The next day, Qing Shui arrived at Bailan City . It was a big city with no domain present . Since the Demon King Domain involved the whole region, there were cities inside it . A city could be very big and was divided into several small towns . Some were divided according to the direction: North, South, East, and west .

The noblemen were usually in some special cities . A common city had one or even two noblemen .

As for Bailan City, there was one nobleman staying here . The nobleman was a person with the highest status in a country after the king . Though there were many noblemen in a country, the land of a nobleman was so vast that one could hardly imagine . Along Qing Shui's journey to Bailan City, the land he traversed belonged to the nobleman in Bailan City .

The nobleman of Bailan City had the surname Lan . He was apparently a powerful Demon King who had ruled the land for three hundred years . In the Water Nation, the noblemen were not very outstanding and had no ability to compete with the Water Emperor . Hence, they remained in the same current state for their whole lives .

As soon as he arrived, Qing Shui realized that Bailan City and Heishui City were like the ancient and modern worlds respectively . Bailan City's flourished environment was greatly ahead of Heishui City’s .

The infrastructure here was much more classy . Along the walkway, the size of the buildings, the width of the streets, arrangement on the road, outfits of pedestrians, and the types of beast vehicles here were totally on a different level .

Auction house!

After a short walk, he saw an auction house . It looked like an extremely presentable auction room with a spacious place . Most importantly, it was crowded outside the shop; there were many high-end beast vehicles with strong demonic beasts . The vehicles were luxurious and the beasts were ferocious . They seemed to have survived countless battles .

Qing Shui wanted to check it out since he had nothing to do . Perhaps he could bid for some useful items like the Divine Weapon Crystal or a Divine Square Cauldron .

“Sir, please show your invitation card,” The beautiful waitress at the door said in a formal tone .

“What? You need an invitation card?” Qing Shui replied in surprise .

“Yes, our auction house is only open to certain people,” The waitress answered with a smile .

“Do you mean that I can't even enter without an invitation card?” Qing Shui asked .
