Chapter 402 - 286: A Life-and-Death Crisis, Blood-colored Cone_3

Thinking back to that explosive surge of power, the power that could intimidate the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm, Chu Ming truly understood the formidable nature of tribal treasures.

If not for his attack being insufficiently sharp last night, the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm member of the Blood Evil Sect wouldn’t have simply escaped wounded.

The strength increase brought by both was terrifying, but sadly, aside from the Sword Qi from the Gold Plate, his other attacks were somewhat lacking.

The Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm person, who called herself Evil Moon, was able to almost completely block all his attacks with a blood gauze robe.

According to his estimation, if she hadn’t had the blood gauze and he burned his Qi Blood and wore the crown, it should have been enough to injure her.

But the strength of a martial artist cannot be solely divided by realms; treasures, weapons, martial skills, and so on play a crucial role.

The woman named Evil Moon who could cultivate to the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm, a realm nearly at the pinnacle of the Qin Dynasty, wouldn’t be without means of protection.

In a flick of his hand, Chu Ming found the ground before him littered with fragments of blood gauze and blood robe.

These fragments were from Evil Moon’s protective artifacts, the blood gauze and the blood robe.

The fragment appearance resulted from her actively discarding these two treasures to block the Sword Aura.

He picked up a piece of the blood gauze fragment, gently stroking it. It felt highly textured, soft and delicate, yet with a little force, it emitted a kind of indefatigably hard touch.

Collecting these fragments was due both to their special material and the fact that the blood gauze and blood robe were treasures used by the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm; if they could be repaired, they would definitely become a significant defensive weapon.

As for how to repair them, he still needed to study thoroughly; the damage was really too severe.

After collecting the blood gauze and blood robe fragments, he proceeded to retrieve ten nail weapons and another pile of more shattered objects.

The ten nail weapons were the blood instruments that Evil Moon spat from her mouth, once driving him to a dead end.

The pile of shattered objects were treasures damaged resisting the ten blood instruments.

Weapons and armors, totaling twenty-three pieces, all of which were treasures used in the Meridian Unlocking Realm.

More than ten items were his own refinements, the other part was collected, originally intended as rewards.

The twenty-three Meridian Unlocking Realm treasures, any one of which taken outside, could be regarded as a sect or religion treasure, the loss undeniably significant.

Fortunately, his artifact refining skill was quite high; perhaps these shattered objects could be reforged, with some loss, but not entirely becoming waste.

Then he looked at the ten nail weapons, dull and lightless, able to sense Qi Blood yet not able to connect.

Upon closer inspection, the nail weapons, even if unable to communicate Qi Blood, stayed sharp.

He attempted to inject his Qi Blood; the nail weapons absorbed entirely, increasing slightly in luminosity.

"Useful."

Chu Ming’s eyes shone with light, slowly infusing more Qi Blood.

About half an hour later, nearly eighty percent of his just-recovered Qi and Blood Power was drained.

Continuing the infusion until consuming ninety percent of his Qi and Blood Power.

Buzz!

The ten nail weapons regained their blood-colored luster, low humming, trembling deeply, then blood light bloomed.

Chu Ming’s expression remained unchanged, his heart spirit communicating with the ten nail weapons.

Swish, swish, swish!

Within the blood light, the ten nail weapons rang continuously, seemingly undergoing some transformation.

A few breaths later, the blood light receded, before him no longer ten nail weapons but one larger blood-colored cone.

Blood-colored cone, which is the true form of this treasure.

Chu Ming wielded the blood-colored cone, feeling the heart spirit communication, his face couldn’t hide the smile.

This was a true Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm treasure, once forcing him to consider using the Red Pendant given by his master to block it!

"Finally, I have an impressive means."

With the Sword Aura from the Gold Plate not available, the blood-colored cone was currently his most formidable offensive method.

Gathering the blood-colored cone, Chu Ming took out two specially crafted long boxes.

Inside the boxes were his original target for going to the Heavenly Inquiry Tower, the Ancient Golden Celestial Silk and Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feather purchased by the Blood Evil Sect.

Opening the boxes, both treasures shot out dazzling light.

Chu Ming felt joyful, with a wave of his hand, a semi-finished Golden Silk Feather Robe obtained back at Mieqin River Bay appeared before him.

Among the three, it was easy to confirm that the Golden Silk Feather Robe’s main materials were the Ancient Golden Celestial Silk and Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feather.

"Ancient Golden Celestial Silk... Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feather..."

According to what he understood and learned from the Heavenly Inquiry Tower, these two materials were quite precious, nearly impossible to find within Qin Dynasty.

But their rarity and difficulty to find were not the key to their preciousness; the true value lay in their inherent quality.

Impervious to water and fire, unbreakable by knives and spears, they were ideal materials for refining treasures like the Golden Silk Feather Robe.

Chu Ming looked at the semi-finished Golden Silk Feather Robe, then looked at the materials in the two long boxes.

The materials were insufficient to finalize the Golden Silk Feather Robe; to complete it, he feared needing twice the amount of materials.

With these thoughts, he stored the two long boxes and the Golden Silk Feather Robe inside the World in the Palm. It was not yet the time for refining them.

Next, he brought forth a jet-black jade artifact.

This item appeared to be merely a piece of Dark Jade, in fact, it held another world, World in the Palm; the Blood Evil Sect used this artifact to store the Ancient Golden Celestial Silk and Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feather.

The remaining aura above had already been dispelled.

"Third spatial treasure."

Chu Ming murmured, heart spirit communicating inwardly, revealing an internal space one meter wide and high, double the size compared to the Wrist Bracelet Naji Space he acquired from the Purple Cloud Sect elder Cha Xiu.

"I do wonder how big my master’s storage space is."

"Blood Awl... Ancient Golden Celestial Silk... Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feather..."

Thinking it over, despite losses last night, the gains were quite abundant.

Aside from these treasures, there were actually quite a few other treasures.

Such as the treasures obtained from eliminating the Blood Evil Sect’s four Lower Meridian Unlocking Realm strong persons and ten Upper Meridian Unlocking Realm ones, almost enough to compensate for the loss of twenty-three pieces of treasure.
