High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 226 - 194: Ten Billion Spirit Stones, Bountiful Harv

Ji Xiaoyan and Ling Xue were breathing heavily, their gaze fixed on the tusked pig that looked like a small mound of flesh, then they took out their Hunter Orders and approached it.

"Five hundred points, it really is a Tier Four Fierce Beast!"

"These two as well."

The two hesitated for a mont, then began to harvest the valuable materials from the tusked pig. When cutting the tusks, Ji Xiaoyan encountered resistance, so she had to infuse her Qi and Blood into the long saber in her hand.

This ti she exclaid.

"My Qi and Blood seem to be much purer than before."

"You feel that way too?"

The two quickly collected the Fierce Beast materials and moved to a deserted place, where Ling Xue solemnly took out the booklet given to them by Su Mu before he left.

The booklet did not have the na of the Secret Technique left by Su Mu, only the cultivation thod and effects of the Secret Technique.

"Condense Essence Blood and store it within the body, which can be ignited in tis of need to unleash greater combat power... Long-term cultivation may enhance Qi Blood Purity!"

"Essence Blood? The fearso Qi and Blood within must be that Essence Blood? I guess it’s left by the Master."

"No wonder, I was wondering why these large pigs were so weak, turns out it’s not that they’ve gotten weaker, but that we’ve beco stronger!"

The two suddenly understood, their faces showing gratitude and joy, yet they had no idea that this Secret Technique would change their lives.

...

Inside the Flood Dragon Cave, Su Mu attempted to use the Hunter Order and Selection Order on the Fire Flood Dragon, but both tokens were ineffective before the "Black Flood Dragon", unable to recognize the Fire Flood Dragon.

But Su Mu didn’t mind, he’d already devoured the Flood Dragon Blood, replenishing his Five Viscera and ascending to the sixth level in one go, a hugely rewarding endeavor.

At this mont, Su Mu transford his hand into a saber, and with the Blade Qi emanating, he sliced open the Fire Flood Dragon’s head, retrieving a Blood Core the size of a baby’s head from within.

Upon seeing this Blood Core, Su Mu was sowhat surprised. The largest Blood Core he had seen before was the King Beast’s Black Cat Blood Core, but that was only the size of a fist, while this one was thrice the size of a King Beast Blood Core.

"As expected of a Blood Flood Dragon’s Blood Core, truly extraordinary."

Su Mu contentedly stored it within his Space Ring, then began inventorying his spoils.

Starting with the appetizers left by Ji Xiaoyan and Ling Xue.

"Not bad, exactly a hundred weapons in total, with sixty-seven being Tier Five Weapons, twelve Tier Six, and fifteen pieces of Rare tals, which include a small amount of Secret Copper and Mithril, the rest being Secret Iron."

Su Mu nodded silently; he asked the two to leave the weapons and tals so he could devour them for the extraction of Golden Essence Qi. He wasn’t interested in anything else now.

After the appetizers, next ca the main course, the treasure piled up in the Flood Dragon Cave by the Fire Flood Dragon. Looking at the dazzling array before him, Su Mu couldn’t help recalling sothing from his previous life.

Dragons love to hoard treasures and anything shiny.

The Blood Flood Dragon might not be a dragon, but there were many legends of Flood Dragons transforming into dragons on Blue Star in his previous life.

Starting to inventory the Spirit Stones, Su Mu was sowhat astonished, it greatly exceeded his expectations.

"About ten billion Low-grade Spirit Stones, around five billion Middle Grade Spirit Stones, one billion Upper Grade Spirit Stones, and five hundred million Top Grade Spirit Stones."

If all these Spirit Stones were converted into Low-grade Spirit Stones, it’d amount to an astronomical number: 41 billion!

"Murder and arson... Golden Belt indeed."

"I wonder where this guy collected so many Spirit Stones, how much ti was spent gathering them, and how many Hunters died at the hands of the Fire Flood Dragon during this ti?"

Despite his musings, Su Mu’s heart was filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest, as the Blood Flood Dragon’s lifeti collection of treasures had now beco Su Mu’s inheritance.

These Spirit Stones alone filled five whole Space Rings for Su Mu.

"I need an opportunity to get a larger Space Ring, as it’s getting a bit inconvenient now."

Next ca the weapons, and Su Mu could tell that the Fire Flood Dragon had a high regard for the quality of its collection because the weapons piled in the Flood Dragon Cave were all at least Tier Six.

"Not bad, not bad, one hundred and ninety-five Tier Six weapons, among which there are nine Grandmaster-level Weapons, enough for to devour for a while."

Su Mu nodded secretly, quite satisfied with the Fire Flood Dragon’s quality control, then with a wave of his hand, stored the weapons in two Space Rings.

There were also quite a few Rare tals, with the most common being Red Iron. It was not surprising for the Fire Flood Dragon, naturally attuned to flas, to enjoy collecting Red Iron.

"Is this... Mithril?"

Su Mu approached a tal piece that was inconspicuous and resembled a stone stump, it was sared with an unknown soil until Su Mu placed his hand on it to identify it as Mithril.

Su Mu was imdiately surprised; the piece of Mithril standing before him was nearly as tall as an average person—this was the first ti he’d seen such a large piece of Mithril. He imdiately embraced it with both arms.

"It weighs approximately three thousand jin."

Mithril’s main characteristic is its extrely light weight. Generally, its price is one and a half tis that of Secret Copper Essence, with Secret Copper Essence being about fifteen thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones per kilogram, and regular Mithril priced at around twenty-two thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones per kilogram.

This ans the value of this piece is about 330 million Low-grade Spirit Stones.

However, Su Mu felt there was sothing unusual about this piece of Mithril. He imdiately brought out a fist-sized piece of Mithril in his hand, which he had obtained from the Secret Realm.

Comparing the two, Su Mu’s eyes brightened. He instantly discovered the Spiritual Power fluctuation within the Mithril from the Flood Dragon Cave far exceeded that of the piece in his hand.

"Could it be Secret Silver Essence?"

Su Mu hesitated; if it indeed was Secret Silver Essence, its value would increase at least tenfold.

"I’ll take it back for my teacher to examine."

Su Mu stored the Mithril imdiately; apart from it, the Flood Dragon Cave also contained several other large pieces, one being Secret Copper Essence and another Secret Iron Essence, for which Su Mu used several Space Rings to hold.

"Fortunately, I don’t lack Space Rings."

Su Mu wasn’t short on Space Rings, especially after returning from the Secret Realm, where the Alien Race had provided him with plenty of Space Rings.

Besides Spirit Stones, weapons, and tals, there were nurous dazzling gemstones, though Su Mu had little knowledge of them and simply stored them all in the Space Ring.

"It seems that the Blood Flood Dragon indeed had a unique penchant, particularly fond of collecting shiny things, as there are no Elixirs or Spirit Plants."

Su Mu was in a great mood after taking stock of everything, and his gaze fell on the final item, the Fierce Beast Egg.

The Fierce Beast Egg was highly spiritual and trembled subtly, making a chirping sound.

The little creature inside sent out feelings of affinity towards Su Mu.

Su Mu was more expectant than ever, the Fierce Beast Egg had intertwining flas and ice-like patterns. He wondered what kind of Fierce Beast it would be?

Chirp chirp.

"Blood... you want my blood?"

Chirp chirp.

The little creature inside the Fierce Beast Egg conveyed a longing feeling.

Su Mu pondered slightly; he had read many Xianxia and Western fantasy novels in his previous life where there were instances of nurturing Fierce Beast Eggs with fresh blood. Beast nurtured from a young age with blood were often more attached to their masters.

"It’s worth trying."

Filled with anticipation, Su Mu walked up to the Fierce Beast Egg. He used Blade Qi to open his palm; the pale gold blood dripped down, and the Fierce Beast Egg imdiately expressed jubilant joy.

The flaming and icy patterns on the Fierce Beast Egg flickered, the dripping blood rapidly spread over the eggshell, like a net of blood enveloping it, and was eventually absorbed by the little creature within with each breath.

Half an hour later, the small creature expressed satisfaction, and Su Mu ceased the Blade Qi from his palm. Soon after, the bleeding stopped, and the wound healed at a visibly fast rate.

"It’s fallen into slumber... it will probably be able to break out of the shell next ti it awakens."
