Chapter 202: Ego Nurturing

Of course, of course! Li Daoyes eyes lit up.

He was overjoyed to make away with a 100-year-old Scarlet Fruit and 500 low-grade ki stones. Were it not for Fang Chen, he wouldnt have gotten a single ki stone at all!

The two of them split their spoils in front of JI Congyun and the others.

With that, Fang Chen now had 800 low-grade ki stones in his storage ring. That was a fortune that even Foundation Establishment cultivators would struggle to raise at a whim.

Ive made a killing. Li Daoyes heart felt sweet like honey.

Fang Chen sighed. He took out the shattered fragments of his Moonsunk Gold Truncheon to show Li Daoye. You might have made a killing, but I made a huge loss.

This Li Daoye gasped.

The twelve daosoul imprint Moonsunk Gold Truncheon has been destroyed?! Thats an artifact forged out of Moonsunk Gold! Its worth at least 300 to 500 low-grade ki stones in Infernoblazes black market!

What a pity Li Daoye sighed. Such a wonderful artifact was destroyed

Losses and gains come hand in hand. Fang Chen sighed once more as he stowed away the Moonsunk Gold Truncheons fragments.

He turned to Ji Congyun and said, I havent dealt with the two faes in there yet, so you wont be able to send people in yet. Lets return to the capital for now. Ill subdue those two faes once my preparations are in place. Meanwhile, you should station more people here.

All right. Ji Congyun nodded.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

The group returned to the capital.

Fang Chen and the others moved into the Ji Manor, where they received the highest privileges. Ji Congyun relinquished the courtyard he was staying in to Fang Chen and ordered Ji Lengxing and the other servants to be on standby to address Fang Chens needs.

Young master Fang, I shant get involved in whatever happens next. Now that I have the Scarlet Fruit and ample ki stones on hand, I wish to find a quiet place where I can spend a few years in seclusion training. I want to first raise my cultivation before returning to Infernoblaze.

Li Daoye bade Fang Chen farewell.

There might still be good stuff in that place. You arent interested? Fang Chen asked with an enigmatic smile.

Li Daoye rolled his eyes before earnestly replying, Its thanks to your thick thighs that I received such handsome rewards, Otherwise, I would have died many times over by now. A 100-year-old Scarlet Fruit and 500 low-grade ki stones; thats enough to fuel my cultivation needs for years, so I shant be too greedy. Feel free to visit me at the Eight Trigrams Sect if you need me. I wont turn down your request as long as its within my means.

Zhao Yan and Xu Ge nodded in approval.

The more blood essence used, the faster the speed of assimilation. However, a cultivator would be weakened whenever they lost their blood essence, so they needed time to recover.

Fang Chen wrapped his blood essence with his spirit ki before delivering it to the silver sword embryo. A red tinge flowed into its silver body and slowly fused with it.

Boom!

Fang Chen heard a loud bang. All of a sudden, he was transported into the middle of space, where he saw countless stars twinkling around him.

Where am I?! Fang Chen was taken aback.

I was in the midst of nurturing my sword embryo, right? Why was I suddenly transported here? Is this an illusion?

Just then, a loud explosion echoed. Fang Chen looked over and trembled in shock.

A massive planet reflecting a cold gleam was collapsing. The fragments of its collapsed body ricocheted all around as meteorites. Some of the stars were bombarded by the meteorites and ended up being crushed into bits.

Just like that, the massive planet peeled off bit by bit until its spherical silver inner core was revealed.

This Its the same aura as the silver sword embryo! Was the sword embryo made out of a planets core? Fang Chen was mesmerized.

An even more shocking image appeared next. A massive palm emerged from the sky and slowly grabbed the silver core. It took the silver core away with it before vanishing into thin air.

Silence returned to the world. It was as if the earlier commotion was just an illusion.

Before Fang Chen could think deeper into what it meant, he was dragged back to the real world. He opened his eyes and saw the sword embryo flying before him, looking much more energetic.

It felt like an inexplicable connection had been forged between him and the sword embryo.

Im starving No, that isnt right. I am a cultivator. I might not have reached the level of grain avoidance, but I wont feel hungry even if I dont eat for a month or two. This feeling of hunger isnt from me but the sword?

Fang Chen looked at the sword embryo and asked probingly, Are you the one relaying your hunger to me?

The flying sword embryo paused for a brief moment before moving up and down, as if nodding its head.

Hungry, hungry, hungry!

The sword embryos thoughts gushed over like a furious tsunami.

This Ive already expended a droplet of blood essence. You should at least give me some time to recover, right? Fang Chen sighed.
