Chapter 605 - 605 Exchange for the Zhu Yan Blood Essence

605 Exchange for the Zhu Yan Blood Essence

“A Ruler entered. He’s from the Gongsun family. He might be coming for you.”

Lin Mo was still excited when a crisp and melodious female voice came from behind him.

He turned around and saw Mu Yuzhu with her maidservant, who was looking at Lin Mo curiously.

“Thank you. I’ll be careful.”

Lin Mo nodded his head in thanks. He did not expect Mu Yuzhu to know so much, even though she was not from Cloud State.

“Also, if you lack cultivation resources, I can provide them for you,” Mu Yuzhu continued.

She wanted to win Lin Mo over and try to bring him back to the clan.

This way, the Mu clan would have another top powerhouse in the future.

“Don’t reject it yet. You know how many resources the God Devouring Body needs. You can’t get everything by yourself.

“For you, the best choice is to join a force. Stubbornly pursuing so-called freedom will only waste your talent.”

Mu Yuzhu wanted to continue but was interrupted by Lin Mo.

“I appreciate your kind intentions, but please allow me to refuse your offer.”

Lin Mo shook his head. Joining a force? He had indeed joined one. It was just a pity that the Bai clan was in the Southern Continent…

Perhaps if they knew that he was in the Northern Continent, they would come to pick him up, but they obviously did not.

“Why?” Mu Yuzhu did not understand.

She had stated the pros and cons, but Lin Mo still rejected her…

“I’m not a real rogue cultivator. I’m just a temporary one. I can’t tell you the specific reason…”

Lin Mo shook his head. He had no choice but to tell her in such a vague way. He had no choice but to reject Mu Yuzhu’s offer to rope him in.

“I see…”

Mu Yuzhu fell silent, feeling a little disappointed. Nonetheless, she quickly raised her head and said, “In that case, I wish you good luck.”

After she finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to leave. Since she could not win Lin Mo over, she did not need to risk offending the Gongsun family to help Lin Mo.

“Miss Mu, please wait a moment,” Lin Mo suddenly said.

“What’s the matter?” Mu Yuzhu stopped in her tracks.

“I want to ask if you have the Zhu Yan Blood Essence. If you do, I’m willing to exchange it with a heaven-grade divine medicine.”

Lin Mo was nervous. The Zhu Yan Blood Essence was the most important part of the Zhu Yan Body Refining Art.

If even Mu Yuzhu did not have one, then it would be difficult for him…

“Zhu Yan Blood Essence?” Mu Yuzhu was taken aback. She looked at Lin Mo, then turned her gaze to her maidservant.

Seeing this, the latter stepped forward and carefully sized up Lin Mo.

“May I know how to address you?” Lin Mo said as he cupped his fists. ‘Does she have the Zhu Yan Blood Essence?’

“My name is Su Qing. I’m the young lady’s maidservant. I do have the Zhu Yan Blood Essence.”

The maidservant smiled slightly. The Zhu Yan Blood Essence was very precious in the market and was the best body-tempering treasure.

Generally speaking, only the major forces with a rich foundation would have an inventory of that item, and only the core disciples would use them.

Lin Mo was rather surprised that a maidservant like Su Qing could obtain it.

On second thought, did Mu Yuzhu not travel from Bamboo State to Cloud State just to help Su Qing fight for the Hidden Dragon Pavilion’s jade seal…?

“Miss Su Qing, are you willing to trade? I have a Golden Divine Fruit here. It’s a heaven-grade tier 1 fruit. I’ll exchange it with you.” Lin Mo took out the golden fruit, and the place was instantly filled with fragrance.

He had quite a lot of divine medicines on him, so he did not mind exchanging a divine fruit for what he wanted.

“I don’t want the divine fruit. I want your jade seal.” Su Qing smiled as she took a fancy to the jade seal that Lin Mo used to enter the ancient battlefield.

“Although you’ll be at a loss in this deal, I only want that. I don’t care much about the divine fruit.”

The Hidden Dragon Pavilion had stated that no matter who held the jade seal, as long as they fulfilled the conditions of entering the ancient battlefield, it would not be taken back.

Lin Mo was qualified to be listed on the Hidden Dragon Rank, so he would be able to get a jade seal.

Though, having one more was equivalent to one more chance to live, and it was more precious than the Zhu Yan Blood Essence.

“Alright, let’s exchange.”

To Mu Yuzhu and Su Qing’s surprise, Lin Mo took back the Golden Divine Fruit and took out his jade seal instead, agreeing to the exchange.

“You’re agreeing just like that?”

Su Qing was taken aback. She thought that she had not explained clearly, so she repeated herself.

“You have to think carefully. You have two chances to live, and yet you want to give one away for this exchange?”

“I’m sure. Just give me the Zhu Yan Blood Essence.”

Lin Mo waved his hand nonchalantly. In fact, he was confident that he would not die even once on the ancient battlefield.

It did not matter if he gave up one of the chances.

“Deal. You can’t go back on your word.” Su Qing quickly took out a palm-sized jade bottle.

The Zhu Yan Blood Essence was sealed inside, and there were specks of silver light in the scarlet blood.

Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction when he saw the silver light. A silver luster meant that the Zhu Yan’s bloodline was very pure.

“Many thanks, Brother Lin.”

Mu Yuzhu looked at the jade seal in the maid’s hand and thanked Lin Mo.

She had achieved her goal of coming to Cloud State. Even if she did not get the inheritance of the Kun Peng, it did not matter.

“We’re just holding onto what we need.”

Lin Mo waved his hand. He was extremely excited. There was a lot of Zhu Yan Blood Essence in this bottle, and he would not be able to use it all.

He estimated that half of the Zhu Yan Blood Essence would be enough for him to complete one move of the Zhu Yan Body Refining Art.

“I hope I’ll have the chance to obtain the second move…”

He sighed internally. There was not much time left. He should hold the auction…

According to Mu Yuzhu’s information, the few elders from the Gongsun family had some fate with him and had obtained his cultivation techniques.

Even so, he did not think that those people would show mercy.

Time waited for no one. He came to the trading area without hiding his appearance and caused a commotion the moment he arrived.

“Lin Mo is finally here. Is he really going to auction off the martial arts he has?”

The people were extremely excited. The incomplete techniques of ancient divine beasts were all comparable to heaven-grade, and they were very tempting to them.

“Everyone, as you wish, I’ll auction off the martial arts in my hands. I’ll sell them no matter the price.”

Lin Mo stood on the stage, and the people below the stage were instantly excited.

In fact, this was the purpose of their visit. Now that Lin Mo was finally going to start the auction, they could not wait any longer.

“Let’s cut to the chase and start the auction. There are a total of five treasures in this auction…:”

Since it was not a proper auction, Lin Mo did not waste any time on formalities, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand.

“The first item is the Zhu Yan Blood Essence. It has a pure bloodline and is a body-tempering treasure. This is an opportunity that can’t be missed.”

When Lin Mo’s words spread, many people were disappointed to hear that it was not a martial art.

That said, when he heard that it was the Zhu Yan Blood Essence, they were overjoyed. This body-refining treasure could only be used by the core disciples of the big sects.

They did not expect Lin Mo, a rogue cultivator, to be able to get his hands on it, much less put it up for auction…

“Miss, what is he doing?”

Below the stage, in a corner, Su Qing was looking at Lin Mo in disbelief.

He was auctioning the Zhu Yan Blood Essence that he exchanged with a jade seal just like that?

Did he not know how precious the Zhu Yan Blood Essence was?

“It’s half gone. There’s no need to make a fuss about this,” Mu Yuzhu said directly.

However, she was curious as to why Lin Mo only needed half of the Zhu Yan Blood Essence to temper his body.
