Chapter 590: Chapter 266: Blood Essence Yuan Pearl! Requests and Rewards!

“Another instant kill!”

The Bai family’s couple was repeatedly shocked, their hearts surging with tumultuous waves.

Strong!

Incredibly strong!

Qin Yu was a peak Eighth Layer of Awakening Vein Realm expert, his combat strength approaching that of a Ninth Layer expert, yet he was slapped to death without any resistance!

The opponent seemed to be only about fifteen years old.

When did the Great Yue Dynasty produce such a youthful prodigy?

They hadn’t even heard of him!

“Huh?”

Seeing Luo Cheng’s gaze over, the couple’s pressure increased, looking tense.

The region of Mingxia Lake is vast, bordering several huge dynasties, and with its complex environment, it’s rife with strong individuals and various outlaws. Those who dare to venture alone into Mingxia Lake are rarely good, virtuous people!

The opponent’s methods earlier testified to that.

Even some seasoned veterans weren’t as decisive.

If the opponent harbors ill intentions, the two of them would die without a burial place, with zero chance of survival!

Luo Cheng saw through their thoughts, stepped in front of them, and said, “No need to worry, this matter doesn’t concern you two.”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief, quickly stood up, and said gratefully:

“I am Bai Hua from the Bai family of Mingxia Lake! This is my wife, Lin Xiu! Thank you, Young Hero Luo Cheng, for saving our lives!”

The gentle woman also quickly expressed her gratitude.

Luo Cheng shook his head and said indifferently, “No need for gratitude. As you can see, I have enmity with them and it was a mere convenience.”

“Had it not been for Young Hero Luo Cheng, my wife and I would have perished here today. This is indeed a life-saving grace! How could it be casually dismissed! Ah, Qingxiu, bring out that item.”

Recalling something, Bai Hua looked towards the woman beside him.

Hearing this, Lin Xiu blushed slightly, turned, and took out from her chest a small finger-sized, blood-red pearl.

Bai Hua handed the pearl to Luo Cheng, saying, “White owes you a life debt. Please accept this, young hero.”

“This is…”

Luo Cheng originally intended to refuse but, upon seeing the blood pearl, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse.

The surface of the blood pearl shimmered, appearing to breathe rhythmically, full of spirit, and even from afar, the pulsating blood energy could be felt!

Bai Hua explained, “This pearl is a Blood Essence Yuan Pearl, a divine object condensed over a thousand years by an old clam spirit absorbing blood essence in Mingxia Lake. It was something my wife and I acquired by chance.”

“The Blood Essence Yuan Pearl has a multitude of effects, such as being used for refining advanced spirit pills! Wearing it can temper impurities and enhance blood and physique, and if wounded, holding it in the mouth can restore blood and flesh, compensating for blood loss, exceeding the effects of ordinary intermediate healing spirit pills!”

“Restoring blood and flesh, compensating for blood loss!”

Luo Cheng’s eyes lit up.

The Blood Ganoderma he obtained from Sun Yingyang’s home had been mostly consumed, and he was preparing to find some spiritual medicine to restore blood and flesh, to be used when needed!

Unexpectedly, the two people he saved carried such treasures.

With this Blood Essence Yuan Pearl, he need not worry when using Blood Burning Pills in the future!

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony!”

Having saved the two people’s lives, receiving a reward was only right, the question was whether he wanted it or not!

Accepting the Blood Essence Yuan Pearl, Luo Cheng thought of something and asked:

“Are you from the Bai family of Mingxia Lake, the renowned alchemy family?”

Bai Hua nodded, “We dare not claim to be an alchemy family, but we are indeed from the Bai family.”

Luo Cheng’s eyes flickered. Although the Bai family in Mingxia Lake was not well-known now, thousands of years ago, several Spirit Medicine Masters emerged from the Bai family, standing apart, and they were the greatest power in Mingxia Lake, surpassing the Three Great Sects!

“Does the young hero have something that needs our assistance?” Bai Hua, an experienced old timer, asked proactively.

Luo Cheng nodded, “Indeed, I need your help with something. I want to know if there exist any spiritual medicines or pills capable of reconstructing broken meridians and Qi Mansion?”

Luo Cheng was, of course, referring to his father Luo Hong’s old injuries.

In the past, he hadn’t considered this matter due to his weak strength.

Now that his strength had soared, it was time to consider aiding his father in recovering from his injuries.

The Bai family, with its profound alchemical heritage, surely has deep understanding in this area!

Upon hearing this, Bai Hua pondered, “There are indeed spiritual medicines and pills capable of reconstructing broken meridians and Qi Mansion. Divine objects such as the Blood Spirit Nine-Turn Grass can achieve this, as can some Heaven and Earth Spirit Pills refined by powerful Spirit Medicine Masters…”

Luo Cheng quickly interjected, “Does your Bai family have any? Don’t worry, I won’t take it for free, I’m willing to accept any cost!”

Bai Hua showed a wry smile and said, “To be honest, young hero, after the fall of several ancestors, our Bai family hasn’t produced a Spirit Medicine Master for thousands of years, and we are not as we once were, lacking such divine pills or medicines. However, if you don’t mind, we can help you inquire about such information.”

“That would be a great help.”

Luo Cheng nodded.

The Bai family, with a heritage of thousands of years, although in decline, still had some underlying resources and extensive connections, making it much more convenient than searching desperately on his own.

Looking at the corpses on the ground, Luo Cheng said, “This place is not safe for long, you both should leave quickly.”

Bai Hua and his wife had the same intention and asked, “Young hero, if we find information, where can we contact you?”

Luo Cheng replied, “Luo Residence in Qishan City of the Great Yue Dynasty.”

“Got it! You take care!”

Bai Hua and his wife took their leave and departed.

Luo Cheng released his soul power, and only when the couple was far away did he relax.

He wanted them to leave quickly because he intended to devour the martial soul essence of Qin Yu and others.

These four individuals were all core disciples with significant strength; he couldn’t let it go to waste.

Roar!

Sitting cross-legged, Dragon Energy swirled around Luo Cheng, aggressively devouring the nearby corpses.

Dozens of miles away.

Bai Hua and his wife soared through the air.

Lin Xiu exclaimed, “A single punch to instant kill a peak Eighth Layer of Awakening Vein expert, this person’s strength must be at the level of a top Awakening Vein expert. So young and already so formidable, Luo Cheng must certainly be a top talent of the Great Yue Dynasty. Hua Ge, have you heard of this person?”

Bai Hua was deep in thought, suddenly his expression changed, and he exclaimed:

“Luo Cheng of Qishan City… could it be him?”

“What?”

Bai Hua took a deep breath, suppressing his inner excitement, and said, “Last year’s Three Sects Martial Arts Competition champion of the Great Yue Dynasty, Luo Cheng!”

“Him? That’s impossible! Only Tongxuan Realm martial artists qualify for the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, how could he have grown from the Tongxuan Realm to a top Awakening Vein expert in just a year? That’s impossible!”

Lin Xiu covered her red lips in shock, using “impossible” twice.

Bai Hua said, “Name, age, appearance, as a person from Qishan City… Moreover, I’ve heard that the Eighth Prince Jin Min has enmity with that Luo Cheng, and those Xuanyuan Sect disciples were from the Crown Prince Hall! Everything matches. It can’t be wrong, it’s him!”

“Once his deeds spread, they will surely shock the entire Great Yue Dynasty! Earth-shattering!”

Hiss!

Lin Xiu took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes swirling, “If that’s truly the case, the Xuanyuan Sect might face significant change!”

On the desolate island.

Luo Cheng rose to his feet.

With the enhancement of his cultivation, his devouring ability greatly increased.

The martial soul essence of the four late-stage Awakening Vein experts was consumed rapidly in no time.

“There’s surprisingly no change…”

Perceiving this, Luo Cheng frowned slightly.

He had thought that devouring the martial soul essence of the four would loosen his cultivation bottleneck.

But it caused no change.

It was like a drop of water falling into a great river, failing to cause the slightest ripple.

“Indeed, breaking through to the Ninth Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm is not a simple task…”

The Ninth Layer of Awakening Vein Realm represents a transformation, beginning the step towards the Four Extremes Secret Realm, corresponding to which, breaking through to the Ninth Layer is incredibly difficult!

Just devouring some ordinary late-stage Awakening Vein experts cannot break through the bottleneck.

Luo Cheng didn’t mind this.

Progress needs to be steady, and he had made significant strides recently, which he thought was enough for now, enough to consolidate.

Swoosh!

With a flick of his hand, the storage rings on the arms of the four dropped into Luo Cheng’s hand.

Effortlessly wiping away their Primordial Qi Marks, Luo Cheng casually examined them, revealing surprise:

“So wealthy!!”
