"That’s strange. I found this shrine in a room in Black Death City," Li Xiu said.
"Is there a fragnt of a spirit in this shrine?" Li Ming’Er pondered and asked.
"There should be." Li Xiu was unsure whether what’s inside the Godslayer Shrine counted as a spirit fragnt.
"That’s really odd." Li Ming’Er couldn’t make sense of it either.
"If not, forget it. You should stay here for now," Li Xiu pointed to his room.
"Is that okay?" Li Ming’Er blushed slightly.
"No need to worry. I still have to guard the Sword Soul Gate and won’t be back for a while. The items in the courtyard and all the side rooms are full, and there’s no other vacant room. Stay here for now, and if you need anything, let know. You can go out, but you must have soone accompany you. I’ll inform A Fei; when you want to go out, she can go with you." Li Xiu said, then left the room.
Li Xiu had things on his mind and didn’t say much to Li Ming’Er. After leaving the room, he went to Xin Guan.
"Old Guan, can you take a look at this thing for ?" Li Xiu took out a gold coin for Xin Guan to inspect.
"A gold coin? It’s not a gemstone or demon spirit material. Why show it to ? I’m not an antiquarian for old coins." Old Guan took it, looked at it, and said nonchalantly.
"Can you check if there’s any energy in this gold coin?" Li Xiu wanted to know if the coin could still be used.
The last ti that Spiritual Mace shattered, the spiritual sense Han Ling’Er left in it was consud and vanished imdiately.
Though the coin was undamaged, within it was only a sliver of the will of Han Ba, unable to regenerate energy like a real person. After unleashing such a terrorizing strike, almost all the energy in the coin might have been used up.
Li Xiu just wanted to know if there was any energy left in the coin. If there was, it might still be useful for survival. If not, then it would only serve as a keepsake.
"Are you crazy? What energy can a gold coin store? It’s not a gemstone." Though Xin Guan said this, he still tested the coin.
At first, Xin Guan casually checked, but upon seeing the data results, he wore a surprised expression and used other equipnt to conduct several types of tests.
"How is it? How much energy is left inside?" Li Xiu saw Old Guan inspecting so ticulously and thought there was hope.
"What energy? There’s none inside." Old Guan shook his head.
"None at all?" Li Xiu asked, unwilling to give up.
"Not a bit," Old Guan mused. "But the material of this gold coin is peculiar; it’s neither gold nor any known tal, nor does it resemble demon spirit materials. Where did you get this thing?"
"No energy left? Then forget it." Li Xiu was a bit disappointed. If there was Han Ba’s protection within the gold coin, he could roam the Demon Spirit Realm freely, without so many worries.
"This gold coin’s material is special; leave it with , I’ll study it. Perhaps it could be used to make demon armor," Old Guan suggested.
Li Xiu snatched it back, put it around his neck, and said casually, "I can’t give you this; it’s a gift from my sister. I have to keep it."
Old Guan didn’t insist, considering it to be rely a peculiar material which didn’t matter much to him.
"Right, Old Guan, check my body again," Li Xiu requested after securing the gold coin.
"Check your body? Why? You’re not injured, and at your level as a Trial Taker, you wouldn’t get sick, would you?" Old Guan sized up Li Xiu.
Li Xiu didn’t bother to waste words with him and directly drew the Fire Lotus Sword. He extended his white arm and made a deep cut, causing blood to pour out.
"Look at this," Li Xiu moved his wound closer to Old Guan for a better view.
Old Guan observed Li Xiu’s wound earnestly. After a while, blood continued to ooze out from the wound.
"What does this an?" He couldn’t comprehend what was going on, nor could he understand what Li Xiu intended to show, and looked at Li Xiu with puzzlent.
Li Xiu’s complexion turned sowhat grim. Due to excessive blood loss, his face had paled to the color of paper.
"It’s nothing, just feeling a bit overheated lately, like there’s too much blood. Letting so out to cool off." Li Xiu quickly summoned the Forbidden Spear and shot his wound. Without waiting for Xin Guan to speak, he turned and left.
"Bleeding...to cool off... Truly a ruthless guy; geniuses are always different." Watching Li Xiu leave, Xin Guan marveled at the uniqueness of geniuses.
Li Xiu now felt like cursing to himself. Clearly, he had eaten Longevity at and a Rebirth Egg, and Li Ming’Er said such a body would have strong regeneration and self-healing abilities. But in reality, they were of no use and left him the sa as before.
"Could it be that the Longevity at and Rebirth Egg Old Bai gave were fakes?" Li Xiu imdiately returned to Courtyard Seven and found Old Bai.
Old Bai, who was tidying up the room, listened to what Li Xiu said and replied in surprise, "Impossible. That Longevity at and Rebirth Egg were taken from the Longevity Hall. Over the millennia, many demon spirits across Longevity Island, including myself, have eaten them and gained an undying body. How could it be useless?"
