First Immortal of Destiny
Chapter 45 - Blood Fiend Orb
Chapter 45: Blood Slaughter Pearl
Standing in front of the stone pavilion, Shen Mo watched as the Spirit-Hiding Rat finished eating the meat.
This time, it ate five catties all by itself, finally feeling full.
Unlike before, it didn't stare at Shen Mo with a dumbfounded expression after finishing its meal, waiting for more meat.
Rubbing its round belly happily, the Spirit-Hiding Rat let out a satisfied burp and prepared to leave.
"If you want to eat again tomorrow, you can come back, but remember to bring something with you," Shen Mo said with a smile.
"Ying!" The Spirit-Hiding Rat nodded its head, disappeared in a flash, and left without a trace.
After seeing it off, Shen Mo refocused his attention on the content of the jade slip.
Returning to his room, Shen Mo sat cross-legged according to the instructions on the jade slip and gradually began circulating the Macrocosmic and Microcosmic Circulations within his body.
"Whoosh!" With the circulation of the cultivation technique, the qi and blood within Shen Mo's body gradually boiled.
"Hoo!" When the first Macrocosmic Circulation was completed, the essence blood of the meridians in Shen Mo's body all rushed into the Dantian.
"Crack!" These essence blood gradually gathered in his Dantian, eventually forming a faintly blood-colored translucent pearl.
"Blood Slaughter Pearl."
"To cultivate this body refining technique and grasp its essence, one needs to supplement it with Blood Slaughter Essence."
After the Blood Slaughter Pearl condensed, Shen Mo exited his cultivation state.
The "Dragon Elephant Blood Slaughter Body" body refining technique was different from the other martial arts techniques he had cultivated.
To master it, simply relying on cultivation was not enough.
Sufficient Blood Slaughter Essence was needed to fill this newly formed Blood Slaughter Pearl.
Only when the Blood Slaughter Pearl was fully infused could he grasp the essence of this body refining technique.
"According to the information recorded in the jade slip, Blood Slaughter Essence is formed by devouring the flesh and soul of humans, demons, and ghosts after their deaths."
Shen Mo's eyes flickered with a faint light as he secretly thought, "If I want to condense Blood Slaughter Essence, I need to kill human cultivators, high-level demonic beasts, and underworld ghosts, and accumulate their flesh, blood, and soul power at the moment of their death."
Apart from using external objects, if Shen Mo could withstand it, he could also use his own essence and blood to condense and supplement this Blood Slaughter Pearl.
However, this option was completely out of his consideration.
Because the essence and blood required for the Blood Slaughter Pearl were too vast. Even though he was considered vigorous in terms of essence and blood among Body Tempering cultivators, his physical strength was robust.
But it was still far from enough to condense the power required for the Blood Slaughter Pearl.
Even if he drained himself, it would most likely still be far from enough.
"I can only find a way through external objects. It doesn't have to be freshly killed. If there are corpses, demon cores, or souls left by underworld ghosts, they can all be used for refining and absorption."
"Let's give it a try!"
With that in mind, Shen Mo rummaged through his Qiankun Bag and quickly found two round and translucent light blue crystals.
These were the demon cores he collected when he killed the Double-Headed Silver Ring Python.
He had originally planned to sell them in the market when he found the opportunity.
But because of the price issue, he hadn't sold them yet.
Now, he could use them to try and condense the Blood Slaughter Essence!
Shen Mo took a deep breath, tightly grasped one of the demon cores in his palm, and gradually activated the cultivation technique within his body.
Soon, a powerful devouring force emerged within his body, continuously absorbing the residual demonic energy and essence marrow within the demon core.
"Crack!"
In no time, the demon core was completely absorbed, cracking open and turning into ordinary rocks.
Shen Mo casually threw it away and then internally observed the situation of the Blood Slaughter Pearl in his Dantian.
"About ten percent."
After a careful observation, he finally confirmed.
Just now, that demonic pill filled only one-tenth of the Bloodthirsty Bead for him.
If he wants to fill the Bloodthirsty Bead completely and start his body cultivation journey, his two demonic pills are far from enough.
"I'll refine these first. When Senior Sister Chen and Senior Brother Guo come back, I'll see if they have what I need!"
Shen Mo secretly thought to himself.
Although he doesn't have much inventory, Chen Mengze and Guo Zhao are both inner disciples and have considerable wealth.
They should be able to find some demon beast corpses or something similar.
An hour later, Shen Mo completely refined the two demonic pills.
At the same time, Guo Zhao and Chen Mengze had also returned to the cave.
He followed the plan and went to Chen Mengze's room first.
"Demon beast corpses?" After hearing his request, Chen Mengze rummaged through her Qiankun bag. "I have some, but they are all low-level demon beasts, at the peak of the first rank."
"How many?"
"Twenty."
"Can you give them all to me?" Shen Mo took out three bottles of small Peiyuan Pills from his pocket. "I can exchange them with these pills."
These three jade bottles contained a total of twelve small Peiyuan Pills, all refined by Shen Mo during this period.
These pills are excellent supplements for Qi-gathering stage cultivators and can be used for Chen Mengze's daily cultivation.
"Alright, take them." Chen Mengze took out all the demon beast corpses from her Qiankun bag and let Shen Mo put them in his bag.
But she didn't show any interest in the small Peiyuan Pills he handed over.
"I have plenty of these pills, I don't need your few." Chen Mengze said, "Your daily cultivation consumes a lot of resources, and you're already living a tight life. Keep them for yourself."
Although Chen Mengze's words seemed a bit sarcastic, she still cared about him in her words.
Shen Mo didn't just accept it calmly, "Senior Sister Chen, if you don't take these pills, I won't feel at ease with what you're giving me."
Even brothers need to settle accounts.
He has already gained a lot of benefits in front of Guo Zhao because of Chen Mengze's relationship.
If he takes it for free again, he would feel guilty.
"Fine, I'll take them." Seeing that Shen Mo insisted on giving them, Chen Mengze frowned slightly and accepted them.
After leaving Chen Mengze's room, Shen Mo went to find Guo Zhao again.
"Demon beast corpses?"
"I don't have those." Guo Zhao shook his head, then changed the subject, "But I do have a mid-stage second rank Xuan Water Refining Soul Turtle demonic pill, do you want it?"
"Mid-stage second rank demonic pill?" Shen Mo was slightly stunned, then overjoyed, "If there is such a thing, of course it's even better!"
The value of this demonic pill has already exceeded the twenty first-rank demon beast corpses that Chen Mengze brought out.
"But even if I gather all the items I have, I'm afraid it won't be equal to this mid-stage second rank demonic pill." Shen Mo smiled bitterly and rummaged through the items in his Qiankun bag.
He took out all the miscellaneous items he had refined during this period, such as small Peiyuan Pills, Fire-Refining Talismans, Light-Body Talismans, Concentration Talismans, and Strength-Enhancing Talismans.
Although there were many items, most of them were cheap goods.
It would be difficult to match the value of this demonic pill even if they were put together.
But fortunately, Guo Zhao didn't mind, "It's alright. Consider the remaining price difference as my advance payment to you."
"In the future, Brother Shen, please speak a few good words for me in front of Junior Sister Chen."
He still cared about Chen Mengze ignoring him.
"Rest assured, Brother Guo. I will do my best." Shen Mo quickly patted his chest and promised when he heard Guo Zhao's words.
