Actually, besides being used in pill concoction, demon cores can also be utilized for refining magic arrays.
The magic arrays crafted this way, when embedded in magical treasures, can produce a variety of marvelous effects.
For example, they can increase attack power, reduce the consumption of True Essence, co with certain special skills, or enhance certain types of damage, and so on.
Magical treasures of the sa level, with or without embedded Array Refining Stones, the difference in efficacy is like heaven and earth.
Take Ling Xiao’s several swords, for instance, they are embedded with Array Refining Stones, which is why they co with special skills and also have special amplifying effects.
Otherwise, they could only increase damage.
The reason Ling Xiao chose to learn the thod of Array Refinent was also due to this aspect.
Because demon cores have all sorts of special uses, they are absolutely hot commodities in the market.
Take the demon cores of Fierce Beast King Level, they are not sothing just anyone can hunt, unless they are Heavenly Person Realm Experts, otherwise, it’s really difficult to co by.
Because they are hard to obtain, their value is often frighteningly high.
...
"Sister Moon, how co I seem to see the symbol of Moon Hua Sect on those stalls?"
Having arrived at a market dealing in beastly materials, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but ask.
"That’s because these stalls and shops all belong to the Moon Hua Sect, you’ve spent too little ti in the Outer Sect, so it’s normal that you’ve never experienced this kind of thing. These are all managed by Outer Disciples, or rented out to others, from which they can collect rent," Moon Lady explained.
"A sect’s developnt cannot be separated from economic prosperity. Otherwise, where do you think the gold, silver, and Spirit Stones the sect needs on a daily basis co from? You don’t think they can just fall from the sky, do you?"
"I see, I’ve been solely focused on cultivation and haven’t really given these matters much thought," Ling Xiao suddenly realized.
"So, that being said, the Beast King Palace, Sword King Sect, and the three sects of the Southern Region also have their own businesses?"
"Of course! This is the largest city in the eastern and southern regions, with a very large population flow, so doing business here naturally yields the most profit, and everyone is willing to co to this place," Moon Lady nodded and said.
Both of them were dressed in casual attire, without the symbol of Moon Hua Sect on their clothes, so naturally, those Outer Disciples of Moon Hua Sect did not recognize them.
Moon Lady has always kept a low profile.
And Ling Xiao was elusive; so people might have so impression of him, but after all, they hadn’t seen him often, and now Ling Xiao was also in disguise, making it hard to recognize him.
They didn’t go out of their way to disturb these people, since this ti they weren’t out on an inspection, they just wanted to buy so things.
Ling Xiao continued his arduous search for the Mirage Beast Core of Fierce Beast King Level, while Moon Lady followed behind him, curiously examining the dazzling array of accessories on the stalls.
This area, being a market specifically for the Twelve Sects, was large in scale and high in standard, with extraordinary items for sale.
Even the hawthorns on the candied haws were special, when eaten, they could strengthen the body and prolong life.
Of course, good things are naturally expensive, elsewhere a skewer of candied haws cost only a coin of broken silver, but here, even gold was not acceptable, only Spirit Stones could be used for purchasing.
Therefore, those who ca here were naturally prominent figures.
Disciples of the Twelve Sects, mbers of the Royal Family of the Northern Han Kingdom, and various independent martial artists.
And their strength was not ordinary.
"Dang dang dang!"
The streets suddenly filled with the resounding clang of gongs.
"Listen up, everyone! His Highness, the Crown Prince of the Northern Han Kingdom has recently brought back a giant elephant from the Savage Country," announced the herald. "His Highness has said, if anyone can ta it, they will be rewarded with a Fierce Beast King Level Inner Elixir and 1 Million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn’t help the hint of joy that appeared on his face.
Although they did not specify that the reward would definitely be a Mirage Beast Core, owning a Fierce Beast King Level Inner Elixir would allow him to trade with others.
Moreover, this was from His Highness, the Crown Prince of the Northern Han Kingdom, whose status was even higher than Zhao Zhi, the Fourth Prince; there might be a chance of getting a Mirage Beast’s Fierce Beast King Level Core.
With this thought, he glanced at Sister Moon beside him.
Sister Moon clearly understood what he was thinking and nodded. After finding out the location of the challenge, the two hurried over.
This place was similar to Sword King City’s Battle Beast Arena, but there were no slaves or death row inmates—just pure beast fights.
Beast against beast.
Or martial artists against beasts.
By this ti, there was already a large crowd gathered in the stands, and Ling Xiao and Sister Moon directly walked to the very front row. It was only fitting for him to sit there since he intended to challenge the elephant.
No one stopped him, because those capable of reaching the first three rows were not the weak.
In the center of the arena stood a giant elephant, seven to eight ters tall, looking majestic and occasionally letting out roars of violent anger.
Because soone was currently battling it.
What Ling Xiao found interesting was that the person fighting the giant elephant was actually an old acquaintance of his, none other than the Beast King Palace’s Tyrant Sky Tiger.
Having not seen him in a few days, Tyrant Sky Tiger’s cultivation level hadn’t broken through, but his combat strength had clearly increased, his fierce moves earning continuous cheers from the watching crowd.
Although Ling Xiao wasn’t particularly concerned about 1 million low-grade Spirit Stones, most martial artists were still very poor, and to them, 1 million low-grade Spirit Stones was an astronomical figure.
Moving his gaze around, Ling Xiao spotted several familiar faces in the stands—She Jiao, Wang Lang, Li Hu from Beast King Palace, and Chen ng and Jian Feng from the Sword King Sect.
"This giant elephant is truly fierce. It seems that Tyrant Sky Tiger is about to be overwheld," he heard soone comnt.
"Yes, killing it would be easier, but the Crown Prince wants it tad, which is a much harder task," another person agreed.
"If Tyrant Sky Tiger can’t manage, then Sister Chen ng definitely can. When it cos to delicate tasks, Sister Chen ng is the one to get it done," soone else chid in.
Unexpectedly, Chen ng, whom Ling Xiao had once easily defeated, was still being praised, and it seed that the ones singing her praises were disciples from the Southern Three Sects.
However, it made sense. Jian Wuji was one of the Six Young Masters of the Sacred Dynasty, and Chen ng was considered Jian Wuji’s woman. The flattery from these people was ultimately for Jian Wuji’s sake.
In this context, it was natural for Chen ng to be held in high esteem.
Speaking of which, Ling Xiao still hadn’t found out what Chen ng’s Martial Soul was, simply because he had defeated her too easily in their last battle.
He was sowhat curious, but that was about it. Chen ng wasn’t much of a threat to him now; his goal was the Holy Son, the leader of the Six Young Masters of the Sacred Dynasty.
With this in mind, Ling Xiao’s gaze returned to the arena. The battle was nearly at an end, and Tyrant Sky Tiger’s disadvantage grew more pronounced.
It seed there was so rationale behind His Highness, the Crown Prince of the Northern Han Kingdom, calling experts from various sects to assist; this giant elephant was indeed no small challenge.
This giant elephant differed from ordinary elephants; it was completely white like jade and emitted a strange jade-colored luster.
Standing there, it resembled an Immortal Beast that suppressed evil spirits.
