Chapter 204: Young Man, Do You Want Me?
“Nevermind. Since everyone wishes for this, then I’ll take half then.”
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Everyone, let’s start gathering the Dragon Blood Grass! Remember not to be too rough with it in case you hurt its roots and leaves.”
One had to know, the period that a complete Dragon Blood Grass could be preserved was much higher than damaged Dragon Blood Grass’. Also, the value of the complete Dragon Blood Grass was much higher too.
“Also, the soil dyed in the blood of dragon corpses and dragon’s aura has turned into supreme-grade spirit soil, so everyone can gather some to bring back.”
Shen Tian’s words astonished everyone before they were enlightened!
Senior Brother is right!
If it were not for Shen Tian’s reminder, they would have nearly ignored the spirit soil.
Dragon Blood Grass would grow on supreme-grade spirit soil, so it was the best choice to cultivate rare and precious herbs.
Thinking till here, everyone started gathering in full swing.
Shortly after, all the Dragon Horn Skeletons and Dragon Blood Grass were gathered. Even the height of the ground beside the dragon’s corpse was shorter by over three feet.
Everyone’s faces were filled with smiles of happiness and satisfaction.
Shen Ao looked at the treasure-filled storage bag in his hand and revealed a smile of delight. He had also obtained a large amount of Dragon Blood Grass and spirit soil. This trial’s gains had exceeded Shen Ao’s imagination greatly.
One had to know that three to five stalks of normal Dragon Blood Grass were enough to enhance one’s physical body to the maximum to most cultivators. Even for those geniuses, basically, eight to ten stalks of Dragon Blood Grass were definitely enough for them to use, and there might even be extra left.
Meanwhile, the number of Dragon Blood Grass stalks in Shen Ao’s storage bag was at least around 100 units. It was enough to strengthen his physical body with much to spare. This was definitely unimaginable wealth!
Following Thirteenth Brother is really awesome!
...
Even the proud and obstinate Shen Ao had gradually acknowledged Shen Tian from the bottom of his heart, not to mention the others.
Needless to say, naturally, everyone admired Shen Tian’s ability from the bottom of their heart.
They could not be convinced otherwise!
Senior Brother Saint was able to obtain the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash and Divine Firmament Drager Pendant just by setting up a stall in Myriad Spirit Garden.
After going to the Fog Plain, he was able to obtain kiloliters of Nirvana Holy Liquid to even bathe in.
Now how long has it been since he entered the Primordial Battlefield!? It is like the Dragon Blood Grass is on wholesale!
With Master Heavens in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, there’s no need to worry about being able to dominate the Eastern Wilderness!
Shopkeeper Song took out a second storage ring with passionate eyes and continued to gather tirelessly.
Liu Taiyi took out a jade bamboo slip and seemed to be carefully recording something down. He was so serious it was like he was the most devout worshipper.
They were so excited that they could not control themselves. There had once been a powerful woman with great beauty that had questioned them. She had questioned whether they could become stronger by following Master Celestial and flattering Master Celestial.
Now, they used facts to prove that, yes, they could turn stronger!
Not only could they become stronger, but they were even able to become rich and advance toward Immortal Ascension together!
The best choice we’ve made in our life is to believe in Master Heavens.
He is our lifelong belief!
...
The others did not know that Shen Tian was only freeloading a fortuitous opportunity, but in everyone’s minds, his image improved by leaps and bounds.
At that moment, Shen Tian felt that he was in paradise again.
He took out a mirror and looked at the halo on top of his head.
Indeed, his halo had turned even redder at speed visible to the naked eye.
Red with green—it was beautiful!
Meanwhile, Shen Ao, Zhao Hao, and the others’ halos had also turned brighter, especially Qin Gao’s. The golden spots on his halo increased more, and it inclined more to golden now.
Qin Gao would only snatch a little over 10 stalks of Dragon Blood Grass during the chaos in his fortuitous opportunity scene. However, now, he had obtained around 100 stalks of Dragon Blood Grass, a huge gain.
To that, Shen Tian was gratified. Qin Gao had benefited, he had benefited, and all the fellow comrades that followed along had benefited.
Then, who was it that had made a huge loss!?
Shen Tian looked at the 10,000-feet-tall dragon corpse, at a loss for words.
Dragons were indeed one of the strongest races in the world. Even 10,000 years after its death and almost with no essence left, it could still unleash such an overbearing aura.
Currently, everyone was near that dragon’s corpse, and it was as if hundreds of kilograms had weighed down their bodies. It was not easy to move at all.
Were they not Foundation Establishment cultivators, they might not have been able to last!
Is it possible to bring these dragon bones back too?
Since it is a pure-blood dragon, its taste should be quite good if brewed into a soup!
Huh, why am I thinking of food? A 10,000-year-old bone, it must have gone bad already, right?
Sssss, scary!
...
Shen Tian shook his head and looked toward that huge sword on top of the dragon’s head.
That huge sword was filled with dark red rust, and even small trees were growing out of it. There were fruits on the small trees, which looked just like the miniature version of a longsword, swaying with the wind.
Shen Tian knew this was also an extremely precious spirit fruit.
This spirit fruit’s name was Sword Heart Fruit. Normally, it would only grow in a land where a peerless Sword Immortal had perished.
Although no peerless Sword Immortal had perished in this land, an outstanding divine sword had killed a pure-blood Holy Dragon, nonetheless. It was thus natural for Sword Heart Fruits to grow under the nourishment of the sword intent.
The only problem was that the huge sword had pierced through the Holy Dragon’s skull and pinned it to the ground. If one wanted to pick the Sword Heart Fruits, they would need to endure the powerful dragon aura and crawl onto this dragon’s carcass.
One had to know that one would endure hundreds of kilograms of pressure just by staying near the Holy Dragon. It even made breathing difficult.
In order to climb onto the dragon’s head and pick the Sword Heart Fruits, the pressure would most definitely increase several times or tens of times.
To Foundation Establishment cultivators, this was definitely not a simple task!
...
Shen Tian took a deep breath and started climbing up from the Holy Dragon’s tail.
With each step taken toward the Holy Dragon’s skull, he could feel the pressure on him increase.
When Shen Tian had climbed 5,000 feet high, he had already reached the dragon’s back. He was able to see the dragon’s head that stood proudly in the distance and the injury which the huge sword pierced through.
The powerful dragon aura and sword intent flooded him, making him feel an extremely heavy pressure. His body was almost about to be crushed.
“Five Heavenly Lightning Beast Armor, appear!”
The avatars of the five divine beasts appeared, and with the enhancement of the Five Elements avatars, Shen Tian felt that the pressure had lessened by quite a bit.
He continued climbing forward while enduring the oppression by the dragon aura and sword intent. Shen Tian actually felt a different kind of excitement as he climbed.
The ring on his hand shone, and a small bottle appeared in front of him—the Nirvana Holy Liquid was inside the small bottle.
Gulp~
Gulp, gulp~
Gulp, gulp, gulp~
After drinking the holy liquid, Shen Tian was shining throughout his whole body.
He shouted loudly, and the golden lightning mark between his brows shone brightly. His hair then started to stand upright.
The boiling hot Qi Aura burned on the surface of Shen Tian’s body. He was now burning Qi Aura to enhance his strength!
Although the pressure was currently increasing, Shen Tian was climbing at a faster pace.
The Holy Dragon’s skull emitted light, and the pressure instantly doubled, as if it was angered!
In that instant, Shen Tian felt as if his body was being weighed down by 5 tons.
No matter how sturdy his body was, he was almost about to be suppressed to the ground.
“You dragon, I’ll definitely climb onto your head!”
Shen Tian ground his teeth and suddenly unleashed all of his strength.
However, just at that moment, the huge sword shone slightly.
Shen Tian then suddenly felt that the pressure on him disappeared. His whole body instantly flew thousands of feet into the air like a cannonball, almost falling off the dragon.
It was good that he reacted in time. The Divine Devouring Vine shot out of his right hand and wrapped around the dragon’s horn, and only then did he successfully swing to the Holy Dragon’s skull.
Standing on the head of the huge dragon, Shen Tian was extremely puzzled.
What is this situation? Why do I feel that all the pressure disappeared after climbing to the neck?
Is it possible that only the lower half of the dragon’s bones is complete, but the head has been broken, so there is no pressure?
...
Nonetheless, he had been able to climb onto the dragon’s head.
Shen Tian walked around the dragon’s skull and knocked the skull using his hand everywhere with amusement.
Not mentioning others, the dragon’s skull was really hard.
Shen Tian did not expect to be able to break the dragon bones into pieces and move them, so he thought of an idea. He stared at that small tree growing on that huge sword.
Shen Tian counted a total of nine small trees growing on the huge sword. Each tree had three to five fruits that were swaying with the wind, releasing sword aura.
It was obvious that these fruits were extraordinary.
If one could eat and absorb them, then they would definitely allow a sword cultivator’s cultivation level and talent to increase greatly.
Shen Tian shot the Divine Devouring Vine out of his right hand and picked the Sword Heart Fruits from the small trees, a total of 35 fruits.
Shen Tian stored the Sword Heart Fruits before looking at the nine small trees on the huge sword.
Could these Sword Heart Trees be eaten? How’s the taste and effects!
The Divine Devouring Vine in Shen Tian’s hand gradually wrapped around a Sword Heart Tree, and Shen Tian used his full strength to pull it.
Although those small saplings looked like they could be easily snapped, they were quite secure on the sword.
Currently, Shen Tian’s arm strength was more than 10 tons, and he was able to pull out even a weeping willow that needed two people to be able to hug it fully.
However, it was quite difficult to pull out the Heart Sword Tree. Shen Tian spent more than 10 minutes pulling one down.
After storing the Sword Heart Tree, Shen Tian was prepared to continue pulling to get rich through honest labor.
However, just at that moment, the huge sword shone slightly, and a cold woman’s voice echoed.
“Young man, do you want me?”
Shen Tian was astonished, while his Divine Devouring Vine instantly turned hard. The Silver Heavy Water covered the Divine Devouring Vine, ready to attack any unknown enemy.
However, there were no enemies, only the huge sword that was giving off a faint light.
“Don’t be agitated, it’s me. I am the Sword Spirit of this Heaven Executing Sword. Young man, you’re actually able to find this place. It’s destined that you’re fated with me.”
Heaven Executing Sword?
Fated with you? Are you serious?
Shen Tian’s lips twitched. He could sense malicious intentions!
Just from the sword name alone, this Sword Spirit does not seem to be a good person!
Shen Tian became vigilant. “You’re this Executing Heaven Sword’s Sword Spirit?”
The Sword Spirit’s voice resounded again. “Yes, I have already killed and guarded this evil dragon on Master’s orders for 10,000 years.
“Now, I can sense that Master has already perished for many years. But you have the same blood lineage and soul as Master!
“Young man, do you want me?
“Then drip your blood onto the sword!
“If you have peerless talents, I will follow you and help you in battle.”
While listening to the Sword Spirit’s captivating voice, Shen Tian felt as if there was something wrong.
It seems like... there’s someone who wants to harm me!
Shen Tian looked at the huge sword calmly. “Drip blood? How much blood?”
The Sword Spirit’s voice hesitated for a moment. “Eh... You have a special body constitution and extraordinary aptitude. The Heaven Executing Sword should be able to recognize you with one drop of blood.”
Shen Tian gradually retreated. “You sure that with my aptitude, just one drop of blood will allow me to be recognized by this Executing Heaven Sword?”
The Sword Spirit said helplessly, “Young man, you are extremely talented. You need to have confidence in yourself.”
Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. “I am confident in myself, but I am not confident in your identity.”
As he looked at that huge sword, the Purple Golden Hammer appeared in his right hand while the Black Tortoise Shield appeared in his left hand. “You’re not the Sword Spirit, right!?”
The voice gradually turned cold. “I thought I controlled the sword to shine when it needed to and did not slip up at all. How did you notice?”
Shen Tian smiled. “Very simple, that’s because when I mentioned this sword’s name, I purposely switched the name.
“You said you were the Sword Spirit of the Heaven Executing Sword, but when I mentioned it, I said Executing Heaven Sword. I purposely called it wrongly every time.
“Sword Spirits value the sword they are in, and the sword’s name is like their second name.
“How was it possible that I mentioned it wrongly for quite a few times, but you did not notice and care at all?”
The voice scoffed, “Just with that? It’s too laughable!”
Shen Tian shrugged. “Naturally, it’s not enough to confirm with just that alone, so I was trying my luck. Who would have expected that you’d admit to it so easily!?”
The voice did not speak for a long time. It seemed Shen Tian’s words had made it upset.
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Hey, why are you not speaking anymore? If I guessed correctly, you should be the Holy Dragon’s soul sealed by this sword instead of being its Sword Spirit, right?”
Before entering the Primordial Battlefield, Little Spirit Fairy had sent a copy of the Deity Peering Record to Shen Tian.
Although he had yet to thoroughly understand the book, Shen Tian could vaguely see that this mountain valley was not simple. It should be a special terrain formed by the huge sword’s seal.
One had to know that the vitality of demons cultivating Godfiend Body Tempering was extremely tenacious, as compared to those of the same stage. They could be said to have immortal bodies.
Thus, truly mighty figures would carve special array formations into their attacks to seal and weaken the demon.
Evidently, a divine sword had pierced through this Holy Dragon to kill it and seal it in the Primordial Battlefield.
However, even 10,000 years after its death, its soul had actually survived.
Call a spade a spade, this Holy Dragon was indeed relatively unfathomable!
...
After a long time, a sweet and charming voice resounded in the mountain valley.
“Wow, not bad! You evil cunning young man, you’re actually not deceived by me, you’re too... Not cute!”
As the voice boomed, the 10,000-feet-tall bone dragon started shining and gradually gathered to form a tall lady in black.
That lady wore a long black robe, and her long hair, which reached her shoulders, covered half of her face. Her appearance was extremely exquisite.
On top of her head were two pink dragon horns, and they looked as if they were a taboo temptation.
What was more important was that this lady was extremely evil, or one should say an extremely ‘humongous’ and snow-white evil!
Among all the people Shen Tian had encountered before, only Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus could be barely on par.
Even Shen Tian, whose mental state was as firm as sage’s, was nearly shaken!
This black-robed lady had a smug smile on her face as she gradually floated beside Shen Tian.
She slowly laughed gently and said, “Human kid, you’re quite handsome! Do you want to form a contract and become an honorable Dragon Knight?”
The black-robed lady slowly went closer to Shen Tian’s ear, and then she said seductively, “As long as you nod your head and successfully release me, I can consider forming a contract with you! Being a Dragon Knight is thrilling!”
