Chapter 859: Blood Essence Stone and Blood Explosion Pill

In the Star Realm, Han Feiyu and Jian Wujie teamed up to wipe out a large Blood Demon camp.

"Brother Han, how have you improved so much lately?" Jian Wujie asked, clearly shocked.

From the way Han Feiyu had just fought, it seemed like he could easily overpower Jian Wujie without much effort.

"I’ve had some breakthroughs recently," Han Feiyu replied vaguely.

He couldn’t exactly tell Jian Wujie, "Hey, check out my peerless talent—I traded millions of Immortal Jades for it!"

"We were supposed to stick together, but now you’re way ahead," Jian Wujie said, sounding a little down.

"Wujie, we’ve always been on the same level since we were kids. Trust me, once I’ve had my breakthroughs, it’ll be your turn soon, and we’ll conquer the Immortal Realm together," Han Feiyu reassured him.

Just then, a massive beast made of blood surged into view in the distance.

This was one of the signature moves of a Great Ascension stage Blood Demon.

"My clan was wiped out because of you humans!"

"I can’t take on those supreme invincible respected elders, but dragging down a couple of human geniuses before I die will be worth it!" The Great Ascension stage Blood Demon’s voice dripped with hatred, as if it had nothing left to lose.

Han Feiyu and Jian Wujie didn’t panic. In fact, they looked almost excited.

The only thing missing from their trial in the Star Realm had been a real challenge—like a Great Ascension stage Blood Demon.

The top-tier disciples from their sect had already left the Star Realm because there was no pressure here.

Han Feiyu and Jian Wujie had been planning to leave too, but now they had stumbled upon an unexpected opportunity.

"Should we fight together, or should one of us take the lead for a bit?" Han Feiyu asked, eyeing the Great Ascension stage Blood Demon like it was a rare treasure.

He felt confident he could take it down alone and reach the peak of his Core Formation stage.

"Brother Han, can I take this one? I feel like I’m on the verge of a breakthrough," Jian Wujie said. Behind him, nine Spiritual Swords materialized, and his aura began to surge.

Han Feiyu glanced at the Blood Demon and then at his junior brother. Finally, he clenched his teeth and said, "Alright, but make sure you make the most of this fight. I won’t step in unless you’re about to die, and I’ll call for a Great Ascension stage elder from our sect to back you up."

"Got it. Thanks, Brother Han."

With that, Jian Wujie’s nine Spiritual Swords fully solidified, forming the celestial sword formation.

Han Feiyu stepped back, watching Jian Wujie’s fierce battle with a hint of envy.

"Lord Grape, do you have any healing pills for the Blood Demon?" Han Feiyu suddenly asked.

"Yes. You can extract Blood Essence Stones from the Blood Demon’s corpse. Just two are enough to revive it from the brink of death."

"There are some in the Star Realm’s temporary treasury right now," Lord Grape replied.

"I’ll take ten," Han Feiyu said, his eyes lighting up. This way, he could have his turn too.

"Master, I heard Lord Grape has the Heavenly Way’s Will source. Can you get some for Little Spirit?"

"That way, Little Spirit can level up and help you even more," said the spirit of his Spiritual Sword.

Han Feiyu shook his head.

"You know how our sect works. If it’s not in the treasury, we don’t have the authority to exchange for it."

The Heavenly Way’s Will source sounded like something way beyond his reach for now. Besides, his Spiritual Sword’s intelligence was more than enough as it was.

“Alright.”

In the distance, sword lights flickered and sword qi surged into the sky.

The sharp sword lights carved the clouds into irregular shapes.

Giant swords occasionally thrust down toward the ground.

“Sword Travels Through the Nine Heavens!”

“Control the Sword Like a Dragon!”

“Lotus of the Sword Flourishes in the World!”

“Wield the Sword with a Long Song!”

Han Feiyu watched Jian Wujie fight with such unrestrained power and couldn’t help but feel envious.

“Just watching like this is so dull. Let’s add some music~”

Han Feiyu pulled out an essential item for the Sword of the Heart, technically a sound device, but the disciples of the Sword of the Heart preferred to call it the Last Glory.

A small orb, about the size of a billiard ball, appeared in Han Feiyu’s hand. He fiddled with it for a moment before tossing it into the air.

With a boost of spiritual energy, the orb flew toward the battlefield where Jian Wujie and the Blood Demon were clashing.

An uplifting melody began to play, instantly maxing out Jian Wujie’s battle buff.

“Junior brother, leave the Blood Demon with just a breath of life; I can save him for another round,” Han Feiyu transmitted.

Without turning around, Jian Wujie used his sword qi to shape the clouds into an “OK” hand gesture.

“That’s the spirit!”

Just then, a Small Spiritual Boat flew in quickly and landed not far from Han Feiyu.

A puppet stepped out and handed over a small box containing ten Blood Essence Stones.

“Points have been automatically deducted. Please confirm receipt of the goods,” the puppet said.

Han Feiyu tapped the confirmation on the light curtain, and the puppet returned to the spiritual boat, which then departed.

At that moment, Jian Wujie let out a furious roar, experiencing a sudden enlightenment, and his fighting strength doubled instantly.

What had been a struggle to hold off the Great Ascension stage Blood Demon’s attacks now turned into a counteroffensive.

In no time, the Blood Demon was overwhelmed and tried to flee.

Han Feiyu, now fully alert, summoned three Great Ascension stage puppets, ready to intercept the Blood Demon.

Sure enough, the Blood Demon feigned an attack and then bolted into the distance.

The three Great Ascension stage puppets behind Han Feiyu vanished in an instant.

Before long, they had forced the Blood Demon back.

“Human race, just kill me! Give me a quick death,” the Great Ascension stage Blood Demon snarled, glaring at Jian Wujie and Han Feiyu.

At that moment, one of the Great Ascension stage puppets pried open the Blood Demon’s mouth and forced two Blood Essence Stones inside.

In no time, the Blood Demon was back at full strength.

“Using Blood Essence Stones made from the corpses of Great Ascension stage Blood Demons? You humans are ruthless!” the Blood Demon shrieked in despair.

Hearing this, Han Feiyu and Jian Wujie both grinned.

“Lord Grape, do you have any pills that can drive the Blood Demon insane, the kind that makes it attack anything in sight?” Han Feiyu asked.

“The Blood Explosion Pill, but it increases the Blood Demon’s fighting strength by 30%,” Lord Grape replied.

“Perfect! Send me five, and teleport them over right away,” Han Feiyu said boldly.

“Understood.”

A small teleportation formation appeared in front of them, and a jade box materialized.

“What are you planning? Restoring my strength and giving me this pill? Do you want me to be your trial dummy? Dream on!” the Great Ascension stage Blood Demon roared, preparing to self-destruct.

But before it could, a Blood Explosion Pill was shoved into its mouth, and the Blood Demon instantly lost all reason, its eyes turning wild.

“Junior brother Wujie, step back. It’s my turn now~”
