Chapter 1407: Chapter 1407: Iron Bull Blood Pill (2)
Feeling so hidden concerns in his heart, Ye Haochuan beca more vigilant towards the elder.
Despite his vigilance, he wasn’t too worried. With his current strength, he wasn’t afraid of the elder pulling any tricks.
“Roar~” The Demon Beast seed to have been provoked. With a furious roar, a gale suddenly erupted from its mouth.
“Blood Wind Rainstorm!”
With the beast’s enraged shout, the gale suddenly changed color, and a stream of blood-red liquid overflowed from the whirlwind’s periphery.
As the whirlwind rapidly rotated, the liquid began to transform into sharp arrows, emitting a series of bloodthirsty hissing sounds.
“Be careful, this is the beast’s ultimate skill, with considerable power!” the elder warned.
“Just a petty trick!” Ye Haochuan smiled faintly and shouted, “Sword Destroying Star!”
On the Divine Concealnt Sword held high, a massive blade quickly ford and slashed down with a thunderous strike.
Zvraa~ zvraa~ zvraa~
The whirlwind and the blade clashed, producing a teeth-grating sound.
Ye Haochuan applied force to his arm again, and the blade’s power surged, instantly slicing the whirlwind in half.
The whirlwind lost its core and imdiately dispersed.
“So strong!”
The elder sighed slightly. The strength Ye Haochuan displayed had put enough pressure on him.
“Great opportunity!” The elder reacted quickly, seizing the brief mont when the beast’s attack was shattered, and unleashed a sword light.
“Cursed!” The beast cursed viciously, but it was too late to stop the elder’s blow.
Clang~
The sword light struck the beast’s back, but to the elder’s dismay, it only left a very shallow wound, with hardly any blood flowing.
“Damn, this beast’s hide is truly too thick!” The elder’s expression showed frustration, having caught an opportunity but gaining little.
“Sword Flash!”
Ye Haochuan also took the opportunity to launch an attack, his body flashing in and out.
Thunk~
Ye Haochuan suddenly felt a slight numbness in his arm. Upon closer inspection, he found that the Divine Concealnt Sword had only penetrated the beast’s skin by half an inch. It hadn’t pierced through, nor left an effective injury.
Since Sword Flash debuted, it had never encountered a situation that left him so bewildered.
“Damn, underestimated this brute!”
Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but frown, sighing internally. It seed that this beast’s forte wasn’t brute force but its extraordinary defensive power.
The beast, emboldened by its thick skin and tough flesh, began to rampage furiously.
“Sword Fall from the Nine Heavens!”
Ye Haochuan dodged while seizing opportunities to attack. However, none of his techniques achieved significant results. Apart from giving the beast so shallow wounds, there was no other effect.
“Damn!” Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but curse.
This feeling of exhausting all asures and still not being able to harm the opponent was truly frustrating.
“This beast is indeed hard to kill. Young friend, we should retreat for now! If we keep tangling like this, it will be troubleso to attract other beasts!” The elder said, biting back his frustration.
Ye Haochuan, however, showed no intention of retreating. He seed to have thought of sothing, and a aningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Young friend, what are you…” The elder asked curiously at Ye Haochuan’s reaction.
“Don’t worry, young master, my business is always fair. Having taken your Spirit Crystal, I won’t let you return empty-handed!”
Ye Haochuan chuckled, then his expression suddenly beca serious.
“Vermilion Bird Illusionary Seal!”
With his light shout, the beast suddenly froze on the spot.
“Is this… an Illusion Technique?” The elder was sowhat dumbfounded.
The strength that Ye Haochuan had shown just now had greatly exceeded his expectations, yet he hadn’t expected Ye Haochuan to possess skills like an Illusion Technique.
Ye Haochuan nodded calmly and said, “Such thick-skinned beasts usually have slightly weaker souls. Using an Illusion Technique works remarkably well!”
He was secretly relieved. If he hadn’t had the Vermilion Bird Illusionary Seal technique, he would’ve only been able to watch helplessly today.
With the beast immobilized, the remaining task seed simple. However, the beast’s hide was really too thick, making it difficult to land a strike.
Fortunately, after multiple attempts, he finally discovered that beneath the beast’s jaw, there was a point where the defense wasn’t as strong, likely the beast’s fatal weakness.
A sword inserted here ended the beast’s life.
The beast hadn’t been aware; it probably didn’t even know how it died.
Having killed the beast, Ye Haochuan slumped onto the ground, panting heavily.
The more powerful the soul targeted by the Vermilion Bird Illusionary Seal, the more he exhausted himself. Finding the beast’s weak point alone took him several minutes, costing him significant ntal energy.
The elder was stunned for a long ti before realizing the beast had been slain. He smiled excitedly and directly pried open the beast’s mouth, reaching inside.
After a mont’s groping, his face lit up with joy, and he exclaid, “There is indeed!”
“There’s what?” Ye Haochuan asked curiously.
The elder had already withdrawn his hand, holding a faintly red transparent bead.
“Is this… an Iron Bull Blood Pill?” Ye Haochuan was slightly shocked, looking at the beast and murmuring, “No wonder this fellow’s defensive power is so strong; it’s an Iron Bull!”
Ye Haochuan had only heard of Iron Bulls. This was his first ti seeing one, and he couldn’t help but take a few more looks.
The Iron Bull, originally nad the Qiongqi Blood Bull, was so nad due to its Qiongqi bloodline. Later, because its defensive power was incredibly strong, it earned the nickna Iron Bull.
The Blood Pill is a rare Healing Holy dicine, unique to the Iron Bull. However, not all Iron Bulls have Blood Pills. Out of a hundred Iron Bulls, at most, only one will have it.
There was once an unlucky Nascent Soul Peak expert who killed five hundred Iron Bulls but couldn’t find a single Blood Pill.
“This Blood Pill is worth at least twenty million. Giving five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals seems a bit low, don’t you think?” Ye Haochuan said with a pout.
To be honest, he was a bit covetous of the Blood Pill. It’s just that he didn’t want to blatantly seize it.
“I’m well aware of that, but I only have so much on !” The elder replied awkwardly.
“How about this: I’ll give you ten million for this Blood Pill, and neither of us will be at a loss. How about it?” Ye Haochuan proposed with a smile.
“Impossible!” The elder shook his head swiftly. “I have a critical use for this Blood Pill, or I wouldn’t have taken the risk to hunt Iron Bulls. I hope you understand!”
Judging by the elder’s protective deanor, he seed genuinely honest.
“I understand you, but you should also understand , right? Five hundred thousand compared to a Blood Pill; the gap is just too big!” Ye Haochuan said, pouting, “Moreover, we agreed to join forces to kill the enemy. But in the end, it was all who killed it…”
The elder smiled awkwardly and said, “I truly don’t have enough Spirit Crystals. How about this: let’s return to Xuantian City together, and I’ll give you more once we’re there!”
“Well…” Ye Haochuan quickly contemplated.
Just then, a sorrowful Sky Shattering Roar suddenly broke the air: “Audacious humans! How dare you harm my child? I’ll tear you to pieces!”
“Not good, we’ve awakened the mother cow!” The elder said in a panic, “Run quickly!”
