Chapter 378 – Friend

<hr>

Qin Yu’s eyes brightened . He was no longer the naïve rookie he had been when he arrived; he had a certain understanding of the various treasures that could be found within the Land of Divinity and Demons . He knew that this blood marrow was an unsurpa.s.sed precious treasure that could be used to strengthen the body and treat injuries . Its value was unimaginably high!

Qin Hans.h.i.+ smiled . “You know it’s something good now, right? There is more blood marrow than I thought . Enough that we can share it half-half . Make sure you keep it safe . This blood marrow’s true function is more than strengthening the body and treating injuries; it can also further activate a cultivator’s bloodline . Just half of this blood marrow can’t be bought even with a billion spirit stones!”

Qin Yu was somewhat touched . He didn’t know about this blood marrow at all . If Qin Hans.h.i.+ wanted to take it all for himself, he definitely could have done so .

Suddenly, he felt several points of friends.h.i.+p with him .

Qin Hans.h.i.+ took out two jade bottles and neatly divided the blood marrow in half . When all of the blood marrow was taken out, that crystalline jade-like skull instantly shattered, turning into powder that drifted away on the wind .

“This is yours . I especially prepared these jade bottles and they can seal in the aura of the blood marrow so that it doesn’t leak out . ” Qin Hans.h.i.+ pa.s.sed Qin Yu a bottle . “Let’s hurry and leave; the commotion around here was too great . It will be troublesome if other people start arriving . ”

Qin Yu smiled and nodded . He received the jade bottle and then crawled up on his feet . The two people lifted Xie Yu and trudged forwards . Perhaps it was because they were lucky, or perhaps because the auras of the battle just now had been too terrifying, all of the nearby monster beasts had been scared away . They walked several dozen miles, not encountering any dangers along the way .

“I can’t continue any further, let’s rest here!” Qin Hans.h.i.+ took out a palm-sized stone from his storage ring . Then, he tossed it into the air where it started to rapidly grow in the wind . Soon it landed back down, changing into a small courtyard . He looked over and saw that Qin Yu’s face was much ruddier now and he revealed a look of admiration . It was rare to see such a recovery speed . But, since this likely involved Qin Yu’s secret, he didn’t ask about it . “Let’s go . ”

The three pushed opened the door and entered the courtyard . Qin Hans.h.i.+ took out an array disc and fiddled with it . Soon the courtyard emitted a layer of light that wrapped around it . Then, it sunk directly into the ground . One could see the soil and rock around the sphere of light that encompa.s.sed them, but now it moved around them like soft currents of water, easily diverging as they sunk down .

They continued downwards for around 3000 feet . Then, after activating a concealing array formation, Qin Hans.h.i.+ finally relaxed . “We’ll temporarily be safe here . Let’s take this time to recover . ”

Qin Yu nodded . He chose a house and walked in .

Qin Hans.h.i.+ put Xie Yu down and started to cultivate . He had released all of the marked sword intent he stored in his sword heart . Luckily he had obtained this blood marrow, otherwise his losses would have been ma.s.sive .

In his room, Qin Yu sensed his own condition . Half a day later he opened his eyes and bitterly smiled . Although the power of the burning heavens was mind-bogglingly tyrannical and overwhelming, the losses he suffered were equally terrifying . The blood essence he lost in just two breaths of time was enough to refine 10 sets of Storm Flow . His cultivation had dropped to the early fourth level of Divine Soul, almost falling to the third level . And as for his lifespan, although he couldn’t accurately sense it, he knew that he must have lost at least a dozen some years of life .

<hr>

And this was just two breaths of time . The longer he maintained the power of the burning heavens, the steeper the costs would become . If he maintained it for three breaths of time, he would have had to pay at least twice the price . And there was no need to mention four breaths of time or five breaths of time .

This was truly going all-out!

Qin Yu took out a pill and swallowed it . Fortunately, he had enough pills and could quickly recover his bodily condition . If it weren’t a poorer Divine Soul cultivator and they received the same wounds today, they would need at least a year if not longer to recover .

In a flash, a month pa.s.sed .

Qin Yu pushed open the door and walked to the center of the courtyard . He looked up to see the dirt and stone around him .

Creak –

Qin Hans.h.i.+ opened his door, a happy expression on his face . “Qin Yu, have you recovered from your injuries?” As he spoke, his face lit up with acclaim, “Your recovery speed is truly fierce . ”

Qin Yu smiled, not explaining anything .

At this time, Xie Yu also walked out from another house . She had a glum expression on her face as she said, “Fellow daoist Qin Yu, if I offended you before, I hope you don’t mind . ”

She knew that if it weren’t for Qin Yu erupting at the last moment, they would all have died at Bronze Bell Ancient City .

Qin Yu nodded . “It’s fine, I didn’t care to begin with . ”

Xie Yu’s heart turned heavy and she was at a bit of a loss . But, she didn’t dare to reveal anything . She bowed and returned to her room .

Qin Hans.h.i.+ suddenly said, “In truth, this cousin of mine isn’t that bad…”

Before he finished speaking he was interrupted by Qin Yu’s eyes . He lightly coughed and then changed the topic . “Qin Yu, do you have any plans after this?”

Qin Yu said, “The reason I came out today was to say my farewells . ”

Qin Hans.h.i.+ hesitated for a moment . “The Infinite Realm is filled with countless perils; you have experienced this for yourself . A single mistake can lead to your death . You and I have already obtained the blood marrow and that harvest is enviable enough . ”

Qin Yu shook his head, “I have other important matters I must see through . ”

Qin Hans.h.i.+ was left helpless . “Everyone has their own ambitions so I cannot force you to do anything . After you leave, remember to be careful . I will be staying here with my cousin and waiting for the Infinite Realm to close . ” He took out a jade slip . “This is a map . It should be much better than anything you can find on the market . Since I’m staying here, I might as well give it to you . ”

Qin Yu didn’t decline . Since he regarded him as a friend, there were some things that didn’t need to be discussed much .

Qin Hans.h.i.+ rubbed his head . “Also, if you were to directly refine that blood marrow, it would be too wasteful . If you happen to know a demonic path alchemist, you can ask them to help you refine a Blood Marrow Pill . Only then can you fully utilize the power of the blood marrow . It might even help restore your hair . ”

The ash gray hair was too eye-catching; it was hard not to notice it . Although Qin Hans.h.i.+ had faintly guessed some things, he didn’t ask further .

Qin Yu smiled . “Alright, I understand . Fellow daoist Qin, if destiny wills it, we will meet again!” As he spoke his figure flickered and he flew out from the golden protective light of the courtyard . With a flash of brown, he vanished into the earth .
