Chapter 2801 Swallowing the Treasure

"Recite with me!" Xue Jiu made a mysterious seal with his hands, looked at Lu Ye solemnly, and then began to chant.

All he was thinking about was the agreement he had made with Lu Ye.

As he continued to chant, Lu Ye felt the burning sensation on his forehead becoming more and more intense, as if it was going to burn through his head, but he knew it was just an illusion.

After a moment, as the seal in Xuejiu's hand changed, the patterns on the foreheads of the two people slowly disappeared, and the burning sensation gradually faded.

It was not until this moment that Xue Jiu let out a long sigh: "It's done!"

Lu Ye sensed it silently and found that there were indeed some extra constraints in his blood. This constraint prevented him from easily violating the previous agreement when working with Xue Ju, otherwise he would suffer a huge backlash. This backlash might not be fatal, but it was definitely not something that could be endured casually.

He was secretly surprised that this blood oath was indeed very useful. Although it was not as good as the Star Abyss Oath, it was a restriction derived from blood and was extremely strong.

In silence, Lu Yechong slowly stretched out a hand to Xue Jiu.

Xue Jiu looked at him steadily, his eyes full of reluctance, and finally he sighed, took out the Sky Mirror and handed it to Lu Ye.

Now that the blood oath has been made, there is no turning back. If this plan succeeds, he will be able to rise to the top in one step. If it fails, he will lose both his life and his wealth.

That being said, if he really had to take this step, how could he bear to do it? After working hard in the inner world for so many years, he only had this treasure.

Lu Ye raised his hand to take it, but failed to get it.

Xue Jiu held the Sky Mirror tightly.

"Blood Lord, do you have anything else to say?" Lu Ye looked at him.

Xue Jiu's lips moved, but he finally shook his head and let go.

Lu Ye picked up the Sky Mirror and looked at it from left to right. At first glance, this treasure looked extremely ordinary, just like a bronze mirror used by ordinary people, but the aura of the treasure on it was extremely strong.

Xue Ju has controlled this treasure for countless tens of thousands of years, and it has obviously taken a lot of energy and time to nurture it.

"It has no spirituality?" Lu Ye asked.

Xue Jiu said unhappily: "How proud the treasure is. If it had spirituality, how could it be used by me?" When he was trying to seize the Starry Sky Chessboard, he also needed to destroy the spirituality of this treasure first, otherwise he would not be able to take it at all.

It's a pity that Lu Ye got the advantage by mistake.

Lu Ye nodded, said no more, and put away the Sky Mirror.

For him, this was a pleasant surprise.

His original plan was to wait until he was strong enough, then find an opportunity to kill Xue Ju and seize the treasure, but to be honest, with his current strength, this was a bit difficult.

The Lord of Blood Drinking City is no soft persimmon who can be easily bullied. Even with the treasure in his hand, Lu Ye is not sure of defeating him.

But he didn't expect that Xue Jiu would take the initiative to deliver this treasure to his door.

If Xue Jiu did not want to seize Xue Tian Xing's bloodline, and if the blood clan in the inner world was not very likely to be attacked, Xue Jiu would never be willing to make this decision.

He was not in a hurry to let the talent tree devour the Sky Mirror, but continued to collect the fragments of the Hedao Pearl.

Xueju has already paid his dues, so it is his turn to reap the rewards next.

"Blood Lord, I've thought about it and think that building Hedao City is not a wise decision!" Lu Ye said slowly.

Xue Ju said: "I just said that casually, just help me condense the Dao Bead!"

The reason why there are so many Hedao Cities in the inner world is because the Hedao Pearl is too easy to break, so those city lords need to build Hedao Cities and rely on the protection of Hedao Cities to guard the Hedao Pearl.

It is impossible for them to carry the Hedaozhu with them when fighting against others. If the aftermath of the battle destroys the Hedaozhu, they will have no place to cry.

But it would be different with Hedao City. With the protection of many formations and the guards under his command, the Hedao Pearl would be in a relatively safe environment.

This applies to the Inner Realm, but not to the Source Realm.

Because there has never been such a thing as a Hedao Pearl in the Source Realm from ancient times to the present, let alone a Hedao City.

Therefore, if Xue Jiu really built a Hedao City, no matter how small it was, it would attract attention from all parties. What would they do then?

Therefore, Xue Ju can only have the Hedao Pearl, but cannot own the Hedao City.

"It's good that Lord Blood understands!" As he spoke, Lu Ye had already collected dozens of fragments and handed them over to Xue Ju.

Xue Jiu took it with joy and mobilized his strength to fuse the fragments. It was not difficult to fuse the fragments of the Dao Bead. It only required a little guidance from the cultivator. After all, the fragments were originally one.

And Xue Ju had worked his way up from the bottom, so he was naturally familiar with this matter.

But after a moment, a dimly colored Hedao bead was born.

He quickly began to refine it.

There was one thing he had to confirm quickly. Although there should be no problem, he would feel uneasy if he didn't confirm it.

After a day like this, Xue Jiu showed a happy expression: "It works!"

He had been worried about one thing before, that is, whether the amplification of the Hedao Pearl would work in this Source Realm, because this was something that had never appeared in the history of the Source Realm and there was no precedent.

Now that I have refined the Hedao Pearl and experienced it myself, I am sure of this.

The Hedao Pearl in his hand is only of the lowest yellow grade quality. With the help of this pearl, he can improve his basic strength by 10%. His own foundation is strong enough, so this 10% is also very considerable.

He turned his head and looked at Lu Ye eagerly, his meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Lu Ye was also not vague. Anyway, he had collected a lot of fragments of the Hedao Pearl, so he only needed to give some of them to Xue Ju.

Hence, for the next period of time, both of them were busy integrating the fragments of the Dao Bead.

As time goes by, the quality of the Hedaozhu in Xuejiu's hand is gradually improving.

Until one moment, Lu Ye frowned.

Xuejiu stood aside, his face so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of it.

There was no other reason. The fragments of the Hedaozhu that were passing by them had been decreasing rapidly since a few days ago. Up to this moment, the two had not seen a single fragment for three hours.

"I'm afraid the war is over." Lu Ye said slowly.

How could Xue Ju not know this?

There were so many fragments of the Hedao Pearl before, because many Hedao cities were destroyed one after another. Now there are no fragments of the Hedao Pearl for such a long time. There is no other explanation except that the war is over.

If his and Lu Ye's previous speculation was true, it would mean that the blood clan suffered a great defeat in this war.

What about Blood Drinking City?

How's it going?

Xue Jiu was worried about this matter, but he was unable to verify it, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Blood Lord, there is something I have always wanted to ask you." Lu Ye suddenly spoke.

Xue Ju calmed down and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"It is said that the ten great cities have their own special features. What exactly is this special feature?"

Xue Jiu hesitated for a moment.

Before the cooperation, he would definitely ignore Lu Ye, but now he had many requests from Lu Ye, so he could only say: "The core of the Hedao Pearl!"

"What do you mean?" Lu Ye was puzzled.

"Legend has it that when the Hedao Pearl was broken, the core of the Pearl split into ten parts. You can regard these ten parts as fragments, but they are different from ordinary Hedao Pearl fragments. Only by integrating these core fragments into them can the Hedao Pearl be promoted to the Yu level!"

"So that's it!" Lu Ye suddenly realized.

He couldn't help but have some thoughts in his mind. If the Blood Drinking City was destroyed, then this core fragment would fall into the hands of the Dragon and Phoenix clans without any accident.

This made Lu Ye eager to make a move.

If he has the chance to return to the inner world in the future, he may ask the Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord for the core fragment. In this way, he can also build a universe-level Hedao city.

With his current background, he is qualified to compete for the position of one of the top ten city lords.

"It's almost done." He looked at the Hedaozhu in Xuejiu's hand.

The war in the inner world has ended, and it will be difficult to have the opportunity to collect a large number of Hedaozhu fragments at will as before. Although I can continue to collect them by staying here, the efficiency will definitely be far less than before.

After these busy days, the Hedaozhu in Xuejiu's hand has reached the wild level quality. With this bead, the strength he can exert has undoubtedly been greatly improved.

Xue Ju silently checked and said, "We are not far from the Hong level. Do you want to work harder for a while? This way you will have a better chance of success later."

Lu Ye thought about it, nodded and said, "As you wish!"

Anyway, he wanted to practice the secret method of the small world. It would take a lot of time to construct the pillars of the world and engrave the traces of the Tao.

For him, practicing is practicing wherever he is, there is no difference.

As he spoke, Lu Ye began to immerse his mind and construct the pillars of the world in his small world.

He was already very familiar with this kind of thing. The power of time and space surged in his body, and soon a pillar of the world was born.

Now he could even spare some time to take out the Sky Mirror.

Xue Jiu's attention was immediately attracted. After a moment of hesitation, he realized what Lu Ye was going to do, and immediately widened his eyes and watched curiously.

Not long ago, he had seen a treasure turned into powder in Lu Ye's hands. He knew that it was caused by the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl, so he was very curious, could the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl really devour the treasure?

If so, it is too unbelievable.

While observing, he did not notice any obvious changes in the Sky Mirror. He did not even notice any unnecessary movements from Lu Ye. He just took the treasure that originally belonged to him in his hand.

He didn't know that at this moment Lu Ye had already activated the power of the talent tree, and his invisible roots penetrated into the Sky Mirror, swallowing up the mystery within.

The mysterious energy surged into the talent tree, and Lu Ye immediately guided it and poured it into the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl Fruit.

A treasure is a treasure after all. Compared with the many treasures he had swallowed before, this unique nutrient was obviously much richer and more abundant. As these nutrients were poured into the Ten Thousand Poisons Pearl Fruit, the fruit underwent some changes visibly. Its size was slowly increasing, and the charm inside had also changed. It was gradually transforming into the treasure it once was.

Whether it is the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl Fruit or the Starry Sky Chessboard Fruit on the talent tree, the birth can be said to be the result of the talent tree directly devouring the treasure, but the process is different.

After bearing fruit, the treasure lacks some of its power, but gains the ability to grow.

Therefore, Lu Ye estimated that as long as all the mysteries in the Sky Mirror were poured into the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl Fruit, it would definitely be able to restore it to its peak period, or even exceed it. (End of this chapter)
