Chapter 591: New Discoveries

In the Blood Sect’s temporary residence in the dilapidated block...

The enormous Bone Blood Demon was lying silently on the ground, facing up. Not a shred of flesh aura could be sensed from it.

However, Nie Tian knew very well that the Bone Blood Demon’s soul still existed, and it still possessed formidable battle prowess.

The only reason why it was bereft of any signs of life was because it had burned its flame of life force away. Once it was infused with new life force, it would rise again.

Only Li Jing, Shen Xiu, and a few Worldly realm Blood Sect Qi warriors lived in this residence.

Yu Tong, who Nie Tian knew rather well, wasn’t among them.

Shen Xiu was rather confused to see Li Jing return to the residence with Nie Tian.

“The Bone Blood Demon...” Shen Xiu wanted to say something, but stopped on second thought, a reluctant expression appearing on her face.

Li Jing saw through her thought and thus said, “This Bone Blood Demon wouldn’t have awoken if it weren’t for Nie Tian. And he’s the only one who can make it display its true might.”

Shen Xiu let out a sigh and didn’t say another word.

She was aware that Nie Tian had saved their lives in the Realm of Unbounded Desolation by directing Tool Sect elders to their location. Besides, Li Jing had always attached great importance to Nie Tian, and would spare no effort to deepen their relationship. It would only be a matter of time before the Bone Blood Demon left with him.

“How did you manage to bring it to the Realm of Split Void?” Nie Tian asked curiously.

“Through a large-scale inter-realm teleportation portal,” Li Jing replied.

“Can this big guy be stored in a ring of holding?” Nie Tian asked.

After a moment of pondering, Li Jing said, “Umm... probably. Even Spirit Channeling grade treasures can be stored in rings of holding. I don’t see why we can’t store this Bone Blood Demon in one. It’s just that it’s too large to be stored in a regular ring of holding. A regular ring of holding doesn’t have enough space.”

Looking at the Bone Blood Demon, which was more than thirty meters long and took up a very large area on the ground, Nie Tian had a headache over how to carry it around.

None of the rings of holding he had ever seen had enough space to store something this large. No wonder Sectmaster Li just let it lie around in the open.

“I suspect that this Bone Blood Demon was at the eighth grade when it was alive,” Li Jing said. “The strength of an eighth grade Bonebrute equals that of a Void domain human Qi warrior. However, since it died, after we refined it with our unique methods, we could only restore its strength to the sixth grade, which is equal to the strength of a Profound realm human Qi warrior.

“Even so, if you can awaken it again, you won’t need to be afraid of people like Ji Qingyun at all.”

“Eighth grade...” Nie Tian marveled inwardly.

He ran his gaze up and down the Bone Blood Demon, but didn’t do anything else.

After all, it would require him to practice his Life Transfer bloodline talent and consume his own blood to light its flame of life force again.

Technically, it would be operable even though the green aura in his heart was still dormant.

However, according to previous experience, the Bone Blood Demon wouldn’t stay active for a long period of time. Once it burned out its flame of life force, it would go back into a deep slumber again.

It would be a waste of his strength for him to awaken it at this point, when they weren’t facing any formidable enemies.

“I’ll look for a ring of holding that has enough space to hold this Bone Blood Demon at the trading fair that’s going to be held by the Spirit Condor in three days,” Nie Tian said.

Li Jing’s expression changed slightly as she said, “I’m afraid that kind of ring of holding will cost a fortune. Do you have that kind of money?”

“Don’t worry.” Nie Tian said, smiling. “I’ve got enough valuables to trade for a ring of holding like that.”

If he could carry a Bone Blood Demon whose strength equaled that of a Profound realm expert wherever he went, perhaps it could save his life at critical moments.

For that, no matter how many spirit stones and precious materials it cost, it would be well worth it.

Furthermore, now that the Blood Sect had given the Bone Blood Demon to him, wouldn’t it be ironic if he couldn’t take it?

Seeing that Nie Tian was examining the Bone Blood Demon, absorbed in his thoughts, Shen Xiu lowered her voice and asked Li Jing with a worried expression, “How did the meeting go, sectmaster?”

When Ji Qingyun had come, the sectmasters of all the sects from the Realm of Flame Heaven had been summoned to meet him.

Shen Xiu had been left behind to take care of other business, and thus didn’t know what had happened during their meeting.
