Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Demon Blood Pill

Jialan City had a marketplace known as Black Street; it was bustling with people coming and going.

In Black Street, various things unseen in the outside world were sold.

Many people liked to come to Black Street to find treasures.

Lin Feng arrived at Black Street.

He planned to sell a Demon Blood Pill.

Back then, Lin Feng had hunted down a Flying Night Demon.

...

This Flying Night Demon was a rare existence among the Demon Clan, especially having cultivated to the Martial Master Realm.

A Flying Night Demon of this level could condense a Blood Pill within its body.

This Blood Pill contained the essence of the Flying Night Demon’s blood.

The monster in the Flying Night Demon specialized in absorbing blood and could automatically condense essential substances.

The essence contained in this Blood Pill was unimaginable.

If Lin Feng directly refined this Blood Pill, he could even attempt to reach the Martial Master Realm.

However, the Flying Night Demon’s Blood Pill contained a deadly poison from the Flying Night Demon itself, so cultivators could not refine it directly.

Only an Alchemist could neutralize the toxins through special methods.

And the Demon Core of the Flying Night Demon was a necessary ingredient for refining many high-grade elixirs.

Lin Feng planned to sell this Blood Pill on the black market.

He visited several shops and inquired, finding the purchase price to be around a million.

The shops in the black market bought low and sold high, and Lin Feng did not intend to sell the Blood Pill in these shops.

He went to the northeast corner of the black market.

This was a place for free stalls within the black market, where cultivators could set up their stalls and sell the items they wanted to sell.

“Little brother, take a look at my Qi Replenishing Pills. These Qi Replenishing Pills are made from seventy-two kinds of spiritual medicine, and each one is only a thousand taels of silver.”

“You, little brother, I have just unearthed treasures here, left behind by a cultivator from the Yin Yang Realm; there might be Immortal Treasures in them, come and pick a few for self-defense.”

Many people were selling their items to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng ignored them and walked to a corner where a young man, looking about seventeen or eighteen years old, sat cross-legged. He was thin, with a flushed face, seeming to have suffered some injuries.

In front of him was a black root, and it was unclear what it was.

Lin Feng sat down next to this young man.

He took out the Blood Pill and placed it in front of him.

“Is this Wu Wood Root?” A middle-aged cultivator came to the young cultivator’s stall next to Lin Feng and asked.

The young cultivator opened his eyes and said, “This is Black Spiritual Root.”

“What? Black Spiritual Root? Little brother, you wouldn’t be deceiving me, right? As far as I know, Black Spiritual Root is the root of the Black Spirit Tree, all guarded by powerful Fierce Beasts, and you managed to get Black Spiritual Root?” The middle-aged man questioned.

“If you don’t believe it, you may leave.” The young cultivator said coldly.

“Black Spiritual Root? Is it really Black Spiritual Root?”

Some cultivators around heard and gathered around to look at the thumb-sized root.

An old man observed for a moment and said, “It’s indeed Black Spiritual Root, the root of the Black Spirit Tree that can bear the Xuanming Black Flame Fruit.”

“Xuanming Black Flame Fruit?” Lin Feng’s heart stirred.@@novelbin@@

The Xuanming Black Flame Fruit was famous and one of the rare Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fruits.

This kind of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fruit was said to contain mysterious and powerful energy, and after a cultivator ingested it, they could use the power of the Xuanming Black Flame Fruit to break through their cultivation. However, the root of the Black Spirit Tree didn’t have much use, though it did have some medicinal value, and given its rarity, it should fetch a good price.

“Little brother, how much do you plan to sell this Black Spiritual Root for?” A cultivator asked.

“Five million taels of silver.” The young cultivator replied.

“Haha, Black Spiritual Root isn’t Xuanming Black Flame Fruit, yet you want to sell it for five million taels of silver. Even though Black Spiritual Root is rare, at most, it’s worth two hundred thousand taels. Here, I’ll give you three hundred thousand taels; will you sell it to me?” An old man said.

“I only sell to those who know its value. I won’t sell for less than five million taels.” The young cultivator closed his eyes after speaking.

“Hmph, ridiculous, asking sky-high prices. Five million taels, you won’t sell it even in a lifetime.”

“A root, dare to ask for five million taels, truly mad for money.”

The people around gradually dispersed.

Lin Feng was also puzzled, not understanding why this person insisted on selling for five million taels. Clearly, it wasn’t worth it! However, Lin Feng speculated that he might be injured and perhaps needed to buy some Healing Holy Medicine. If that were the case, it might explain why he insisted on selling for five hundred taels, but Lin Feng merely smiled at the “only selling to destined people” line, thinking it was mostly the young cultivator’s excuse.

At this moment, a group of over a dozen people walked over from afar, led by a young gentleman. They stopped in front of Lin Feng’s little stall.

“Eh, is this a Blood Pill?” The young gentleman looked surprised at the Demon Blood Pill placed in front of Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Flying Night Demon’s Blood Pill.”

“What? Flying Night Demon’s Blood Pill? This thing is rare; I’ve only heard of it and never seen it.”

Many people exclaimed upon hearing his words and surrounded Lin Feng tightly.

Pausing a moment, Lin Feng continued, “Moreover, it’s a Blood Pill condensed by a Flying Night Demon in the Martial Master Realm.”

“A Blood Pill condensed by a Flying Night Demon in the Martial Master Realm?” The gentleman’s eyes lit up.

He said, “A year ago, I saw a Blood Pill in the refining room of my family’s elder, but its quality wasn’t as good as yours. That one was condensed by a Flying Night Demon at the Martial Artist Ninth Level. I want this Blood Pill of yours. Someone, pay the money.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Immediately, a guard stepped forward, took out a stack of silver notes, and handed them to Lin Feng.

Each silver note was for one hundred thousand taels, ten in total, equaling a million taels.

Lin Feng shook his head and said, “A Flying Night Demon Blood Pill at the Martial Artist Realm costs five million taels to purchase outside, and it is unavailable. A Flying Night Demon Blood Pill at the Martial Master Realm, I heard one was sold at auction years ago for a price of twelve million taels. I didn’t want to go to auction, too troublesome, so I brought it here to sell. If you recognize its value and genuinely want it, ten million taels of silver should be fine. Your one million taels of silver won’t buy my Flying Night Demon Blood Pill.”

The young gentleman smiled and said, “This is Black Street, not an auction house. The price of this Flying Night Demon Blood Pill is up to me, not you.”

“My stuff, and you set the price? Are you joking?” Lin Feng spoke calmly.

“Of course not; I’m very serious. This Flying Night Demon Blood Pill, I want it for one million taels of silver. Now, take your silver, and you can leave,” the young gentleman said in a tone that brooked no question.

“Ridiculous, less than ten million taels, and you can’t take it.” Lin Feng said coldly.

The young gentleman’s face immediately showed a cold smile, “Boy, don’t make a fool of yourself.”
