Chapter 977: Chapter 382: Striking It Rich Chu Yunyun knew that she felt a bit twisted, yet she still couldn’t help but feel disgusted. At this moment, she saw Chu Xisheng beside her, whose lips were slightly raised, eyes shining brightly, with a hint of happiness on his face. Chu Yunyun couldn’t help but frown slightly: “What makes you so happy?” Chu Xisheng was thrilled with the surge in Blood Essence Points on his system panel. Starting from noon five days ago, in just five days, his Blood Essence Points had skyrocketed to 970,000, and the number was still changing dramatically. Chu Xisheng felt quite puzzled. After all, this issue of “Debating Martial Arts” should have been released over a dozen days ago. This book, unlike the “Heavenly Mechanism Martial Arts Manual,” doesn’t gradually ferment like that. Chu Xisheng speculated it might be related to his own ‘Vengeful Bloodline,’ with the 32nd on the Heavenly List, ‘God-Killing Doctor’ Li Zhen’e, successfully withdrawing from the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace, likely bringing his news out. But it shouldn’t be like that; the “Heavenly Mechanism Martial Arts Manual” was published around New Year’s Eve, which is still a few days away. Thinking of New Year’s Eve, Chu Xisheng secretly had a headache. It seemed this New Year, he had to spend inside the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace. But looking at the soaring Blood Essence Points, Chu Xisheng was extremely satisfied and filled with anticipation. Just a while ago, he found the ‘Blood of Ten Thousand Ages (Fourteenth Tier)’ in the Martial Arts Treasure Vault, requiring 1,180,980 Blood Essence Points. At that time, Chu Xisheng felt the system panel was just there to frustrate people. Where did he have so many Blood Essence Points to exchange? He couldn’t get any other bloodline talent, only this Fourteenth Tier Blood of Ten Thousand Ages repeatedly appearing. Now he didn’t think much; this time, it was just right to exchange it. He needed only 200,000 Blood Essence Points more, and at the current rate of increase, it was just a matter of two days. When returning to the Formless Divine Sect, he could perform a Blood Burning Ritual to see if he could use the ‘Iron Mountain Blood Selection Technique’ to push his ‘Blood of Ten Thousand Ages’ to the Fifteen Layers, unlocking the next stage of talent ability. As Chu Xisheng knew, this level of Eternal Blood could give him an extremely powerful ability, raising his combat power again. Chu Xisheng was dreaming sweet dreams when he was awakened by Chu Yunyun’s words. Of course, he couldn’t tell the truth, so he just smiled and said, “I made a lot of money again, how can I not be happy?” Chu Yunyun couldn’t help but glance sideways at the Magic Weapon Mountain on Little Xuanwu’s back. A few days ago, in the fog battle, they did earn a big profit. Before her true body returned, she had thrown all the opponents’ relics to Chu Xisheng in one go. Wen Zhiyi didn’t take a single thing; she even deliberately shattered the Cold Ice on the 18th of the Heavenly List, ‘Great God Yin Hand’ Baili Lieshou, the intention naturally self-evident. Chu Xisheng himself was not polite. Taking advantage of the fog before it dissipated, he relied on the mysterious expert and Wen Zhiyi’s prestige to loot vigorously, almost carrying away everything that he could take back on Little Xuanwu’s back. Among them, there were four storage devices. Although, like before, they were subbodies of storage devices, these materials contained powerful Void power. This means that Chu Xisheng’s future Qiankun Storage Device could be expanded further. As for the second and third-grade magic artifacts, there were no fewer than twenty pieces. Unfortunately, magic artifacts of this tier had gained some spiritual wisdom and possessed strong Forbidden Techniques. Wearing or refining them without the owner’s permission could lead to the artifact’s self-destruction. Therefore, Chu Xisheng could only sell them to the black market or the Heavenly Artifact Institute of the Formless Divine Sect for the price of materials. Selling to the black market could mean that enemies might buy them back, while the Heavenly Artifact Institute might break the Forbidden Techniques or decompose the materials. So the more valuable items were the fourth-grade magical devices; they took over sixty pieces this time. However, thinking of these things, many of which were given to Chu Xisheng by Wen Zhiyi, made Chu Yunyun feel even worse. For some reason, she felt a bit of irritation and thus spoke in a slightly colder tone: “It’s already been seven days, is it worth being so happy still?” Chu Xisheng immediately sensed something was wrong and instantly straightened his expression, putting away his joy. “No, I sold those Pass Tokens you gave me, and the gains were considerable. This time when we go back, let’s see if we can reforge the War Map for Yunyun and pair it with a set of magical artifacts.” This fog battle, he had taken a total of five tokens. He used one himself, gave one to Mrs. Han Guang of Lishan, and sold the other three at high prices to Rijialuo, the Nine-tailed Fox, and those mysterious masks people. Chu Xisheng originally didn’t want to sell them, but those families offered very high prices. Upon hearing this, Chu Yunyun only felt a heaviness in her chest. But after a quick thought, she decisively nodded: “Alright!” Chu Yunyun realized she must recover her strength quickly. Find the newest release on novel•fire.net She was eager before but never as urgent as today. At that moment, Bai Hanguang, an Inner Sect Disciple, raised his eyelids: “Great Elder, I have mastered the ‘Wind’s Intent.’ He was the slowest among everyone present. Yan Guilai immediately raised his eyebrows, looking toward the staircase. He then stood up, smoothing his clothes: “Let’s go to the ninth layer.” At this time, Wen Zhiyi and the others from One Sword Overturning City had already entered the ninth layer for a while. Chu Xisheng also became spirited and stood up tall. He had already comprehended ‘Wind’s Intent’ a day ago, mastering all nine extreme moves. Chu Xisheng had gotten a glimpse of the full scope of ‘Wind Near Trace’ and was very tempted by this wind element Near-God extreme move. However, he didn’t exert effort studying it. Chu Xisheng was only at the proficient level in the wind element Martial Way and couldn’t integrate the complete ‘Wind Near Trace’ from the nine extreme moves in just a few days. So in the remaining time, he spent his dreams studying Vajra Martial Intent, Undying Martial Intent, etc. Chu Xisheng believed that the rotating stone pillar in the ninth layer of the Wind God Tower must contain the full view of ‘Wind Near Trace,’ at least helping them quickly comprehend it. And just as Chu Xisheng followed Yan Guilai up to the ninth layer, his mind suddenly stirred, and he looked ahead with slight astonishment. At this moment, in Chu Xisheng’s mind, dozens of pieces of information suddenly appeared. It was like a computer screen filled with pop-ups. Chu Xisheng stared at the rotating stone pillar, his expression gradually solemn.
