Chapter 314: Master, Did You Break Through Again?

"Blood Essence Stones?"

Both Xiao Fan and Jiang Taixuan had a flash of brilliance in their eyes.

Recently, the turmoil caused by the Otherworldly Demons had been growing ever more intense. Along with it, the name Blood Essence Stones had gradually risen to prominence. Since the Otherworldly Demons had not yet launched a full-scale invasion across realms, Blood Essence Stones remained a commodity with demand but no supply.

Still, compared to their prices several hundred years ago, they had dropped somewhat, yet even so, they were far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

In the current era, any top-tier prodigy who failed to refine some Blood Essence Stones would, invisibly, fall behind others.

After all, everyone had powerful factions backing them.

When it came to actual combat, if one side had refined Blood Essence Stones, even if they could not achieve rebirth from a drop of blood, as long as they could regenerate severed limbs, they would already surpass others by a huge margin.

One could imagine just how sought-after Blood Essence Stones were now.

To compete for them, many major factions were already at each other's throats, stirring up storms everywhere.

Because of the matter involving the Quasi-Emperor's decree, both sides might maintain restraint for the time being, but in the long run, no one could guarantee what those factions unable to obtain Blood Essence Stones might do.

"Immortal… isn't this too valuable?"

Jiang Taixuan took the storage ring and examined it carefully. Inside, black crystals the size of fists were piled high, filling the entire ring.

A rough count suggested at least several hundred thousand pieces.

Moreover, their quality seemed anything but low.

With Jiang Taixuan's keen eye, he estimated that these were at least high-grade Blood Essence Stones, possibly even peak-grade ones. 

Without exaggeration, if the Blood Essence Stones in this storage ring were released into the outside world, they would undoubtedly trigger a bloody storm.

Judging by current market prices, these several hundred thousand Blood Essence Stones could be exchanged for tens of millions of peak-grade spirit stones!

That was an astronomical sum.

Even for him—someone who had once looted the Spirit Clan's treasury—whether he would be willing to part with such a fortune was uncertain.

Thinking of this, Jiang Taixuan's respect for Li Xun rose to another level without him realizing it. 

He had never imagined that this immortal that he had known since his early years would value him so highly.

This act of kindness had already reached an incomparable level in his heart.

"Blood Essence Stones are indeed precious, but for you, they are exactly what you need. Once you refine them, if you encounter powerful enemies in the future, you'll at least gain a few more means of survival." Li Xun said with a smile.

As for Blood Essence Stones, he already had more than he could ever use. That ancient existence deep within the Abyssal Demons Burial had been exceedingly generous.

The Blood Essence Stones given to him numbered in the hundreds of millions.

But he would never say such things aloud. If that were made clear, then in Jiang Taixuan's eyes, this favor would no longer appear so precious.

He had to give the impression that he himself did not have many, yet was still willing to share some, only then could the value of this kindness be maximized.

"Today's kindness from the Immortal… Jiang Taixuan will remember it for the rest of his life." Jiang Taixuan spoke.

At this moment, he felt a faint sense of shame in his heart.

'The Immortal has helped me so much, yet right now I can't offer him any help at all…' Jiang Taixuan felt a deep sense of guilt in his heart.

Xiao Fan, on the other hand, was much less concerned with such things.

To him, nothing in this world could compare to his big brother's life-saving grace. After offering a word of thanks, he casually took out a Blood Essence Stone and bit down on it hard.

Crack!

The Blood Essence Stone in his hand instantly split into two pieces.

After chewing for a moment, Xiao Fan frowned and said with a hint of disdain, "Doesn't taste good."

Compared to the demon beast meat he had eaten before, the flavor of the Blood Essence Stone was worlds apart.

"Blood Essence Stones aren't meant to be eaten," Li Xun said with a smile.

He then stood up and added, "I look forward to the next time I see you, by then, you should be able to fight alongside me."

In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, Xiao Fan and Jiang Taixuan's cultivation speed was already nothing short of heaven-defying.

But in Li Xun's eyes, it was still not quite enough.

If the two of them were to truly be of help to him, it would likely take several decades, perhaps even a century.

Of course, that assumed that during this time, he himself would not obtain cultivation rewards from the system.

Ironically, just as he had invested in Jiang Taixuan and Xiao Fan, one of them immediately returned one hundred and fifty years worth of closed door cultivation!

One hundred and fifty years worth of closed door cultivation—this was already almost on par with a purple-grade investment.

Once claimed, Li Xun estimated that he would not be far from becoming a Saint.

"Big brother, you're leaving already?" Xiao Fan looked up in surprise.

"Mm." Li Xun nodded. "We'll meet again."

As his words fell, he took a step forward. His figure vanished directly from the private room. Disappearing along with him was Huang Xi. When the two reappeared, they were already hundreds of miles outside the ancient city.

Li Xun raised his hand and summoned the Golden Divine Chariot, stepping into it together with Huang Xi.

'System, claim the reward.'

Once seated, Li Xun spoke inwardly.

Buzz!

The next moment, a jade transmission slip emitting a soft white glow appeared before him. Li Xun glanced at it casually before storing it away.

It was merely a high-grade Heaven divine technique.

In terms of value, it wasn't anything special. If it could be upgraded to a Saint-level divine technique in the future, he might consider cultivating it,but as a Heaven-level technique, it was somewhat underwhelming.

Among today's investments in the city, what he valued most was the second reward—

Cultivation.

Boom!

Moments later, a powerful aura erupted from within Li Xun's body. His strength began to rise rapidly without any warning, climbing steadily until it finally stopped at the peak of the Divine Palace Realm.

This scene stunned Huang Xi beside him.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed tightly on Li Xun, filled with incomprehensible confusion. 

If she remembered correctly, not long ago, her master had only just broken through to the late stage of the Divine Palace Realm.

How could his strength have increased by such a large margin again in such a short time?

If she wasn't mistaken, her master's current strength was now not far from becoming a Saint.

"Master… did you break through again?" Huang Xi murmured.

"Just a stroke of luck," Li Xun replied calmly.

The one hundred and fifty years of cultivation were slightly less than he had imagined. Although he had reached the peak of the Divine Palace Realm, he still hadn't sensed his Saint Tribulation.

In other words, if he wanted to become a Saint now, he would either need to further solidify his cultivation or consume a Hun Tian Pill.

There was no immediate danger at present, so there was no need to rush and use a pill to break through his realm.
