Chapter 427A – Super Storm Flow

The curtain dropped on the gambling fight at Heavenwait Temple . Grandmaster Yao had ended up being the one smiling at the end, and Jiang Taishou had faded into ashes . The entire Black Demon Sect was filled with sorrow and mourning . According to those responsible for statistics, on this day, several dao companions and families became bankrupt and turned to enemies . As for lovers who broke up, the number was simply uncountable .

And the chief culprit of all of this was actually receiving the largest speculative gains of his life .

“Greetings, Grandmaster Yao . ” A fat middle-aged cultivator said with a smile, his face jubilant and pleasant . He lifted a jade box with his hands . “This is the winnings that grandmaster made from the betting ring . There are a total of 857,250,000 spirit stones . I made a decision on my own end to collect a full 860 million spirit stones for grandmaster . I ask grandmaster to please look through it . ”

Qin Yu’s heart leapt in his chest, a stunned expression on his face . Although he knew his gains would be incredible this time, he never thought it would be such a terrifying number .

A compensation rate of 1:5 . Even if it rose five times over again, it would still be far from reaching this number .

“Grandmaster Yao, is something wrong?” The fat cultivator tensed up, bitterly regretting that his expression of respect wasn’t enough and that Grandmaster Yao wasn’t happy enough with him . But, this was already the limits of his authority . If he wanted to show even greater sincerity, he would have to send a request to the higher ups .

Qin Yu regained his composure and waved his hand . “It’s not a problem . I was just thinking of something else . Since this is the case, I will accept it . ” Inside the jade box were nine pitch black cards . They were covered with runes that shimmered all over them and they released a mystical and majestic aura . This sort of spirit stone card was released by the Demonic Path and had absolute authority throughout the entirety of the Land of Divinity and Demons . It could be drawn out and used anywhere; it was the most convenient kind .

Looking through with his divine sense and seeing that there weren’t any problems with the amount of spirit stones, Qin Yu smiled . With this terrifying amount of spirit stones, it would be much easier to purchase high level monster beast souls and blood in the future .

The betting ring cultivator seemed simple and honest, but his thoughts were insightful and shrewd . He quickly said his goodbyes, “Grandmaster Yao, our trade is already cleared . If there is nothing else, I will excuse myself first . ”

“Be careful . ” Qin Yu played with the excellently crafted jade box for a moment and then placed it on a nearby table . “Tuba, come in . ”

Tuba walked in and fell to his knees . “Your Highness . ”

“Is this great amount of spirit stones because of you?”

“Yes, Your Highness . ”

“Where did they come from?”

Tuba said, “Your Highness knows that our titan tribe cannot use spirit stones . Through the many years we lived in the Infinite Realm, we slowly saved them up . The great priest bid me to bring them with me and give them to you in a time of need . Since there happened to be a betting ring this time, this subordinate acted on his own . I ask Your Highness for forgiveness . ”

Qin Yu smiled . “These spirit stones will indeed be useful to me in the future . I owe your titan tribe a favor . ”

Tuba was overjoyed . “Thank you, Your Highness!” Before he left, he had been given a reminder by the great priest to have His Highness develop a favorable impression of the titan tribe . This was the best way to save their tribe . Moreover, he was not to mention anything else, because that would only create pressure on His Highness and make him feel bothered instead .

Qin Yu knocked on the table and his eyes flashed . “Tuba, there is something I need you to do . ” A moment later, a puzzled Tuba flew out from the palace and directly soared towards Jiang Taishou’s residence .

Although he didn’t know why His Highness decided to give shelter to those who were with the surname Jiang, he didn’t inquire because he knew that His Highness must have a reason for doing so .

Qin Yu put away the jade box . He leaned back against his chair and closed his eyes, muttering, “It seems that the Black Demon Sect hasn’t come to a decision on how to carry out the agreement . But, this actually gives me a chance to understand the truth . ”

Three days later, as Qin Yu was cultivating, Tuba came in to report that the sect’s Elder Xu had arrived . He opened his eyes, his eyes flashing . This was the reason he hadn’t gone into seclusion .

“Have him wait in the main hall for a moment . I will tidy up and then come . ”

After a moment when Qin Yu finished washing up, he stepped into the main hall and said, “Elder Xu, I wonder what your reason for visiting today is?”

His attitude was a bit cold but at least he was calm and not aggressive or menacing . This caused Xu Song to relax a little . “Greetings, Grandmaster Yao . I came here today in hopes of having a discussion with you concerning the matter of the spirit plant material transactions . ”

Qin Yu nodded . “I already expected this . But, let’s not be in a hurry . Let’s have some tea before we continue speaking . ” He clapped his hands and two pretty maids walked in with bowed heads and small steps . They served up cups of hot tea .

Xu Song didn’t know just what plot this surname Yao was scheming, but he maintained his composure and took a sip . Then, he commented with approval, “What great tea!”

Qin Yu said, “The tea isn’t bad, but to have such flavor, I must thank these two maids . Their tea steeping method is excellent . ”

Xu Song had already put away his disdain of Yao Bin . He knew he wouldn’t say these things without reason . He glanced towards the two maids .

Soon, the hand carrying the teacup slightly trembled and there was a trace of gloominess in Xu Song’s eyes .

Qin Yu smiled . “You may leave . ” After the two maids left, he continued to say, “It seems that Elder Xu appears to know those two . ”

Xu Song slowly said, “Those two maids, I seem to recall that they used to serve at Grandmaster Jiang’s side . ”

“That’s right . At the gambling fight at Heavenwait Temple, Grandmaster Jiang lost his life . I often feel guilty when I think about this and find it hard to be at peace . Unfortunately, since things went that far, it is impossible to turn back . I could only give shelter to some of Grandmaster Jiang’s old disciples and workers so that they aren’t humiliated by others . ”

Xu Song was silent for a long time . He said, “Grandmaster is wise . I think you must have already guessed my real goal for coming here today . I wonder if grandmaster has an answer ready or not?”

Qin Yu laid down the teacup . “We will do as it’s usually been . I will agree to the conditions that Jiang Taishou had in the past, and I can also give the Chief Elder an additional 10% of the profits . ”

As he spoke, his hand flashed and a card appeared in his hand . He placed it on the table . “This is just a bit of my sincerity . I hope that Elder Xu can accept and speak some kind words on my behalf . ”

Xu Song hesitated for a moment . He ruefully smiled, “Grandmaster Yao has such amazing methods; I am in deep admiration . I believe that the sect can accept this result . While I am here, I wish grandmaster good luck and great wealth in the future . ”

He casually received the card and swept through it with his divine sense . Seeing the amount, he was much more satisfied . It seemed that this surname Yao wasn’t someone who didn’t know what proper actions to take .

After speaking some more words, Qin Yu stood up and personally saw Xu Song out of the temple .

He turned back around and took a seat, continuing to drink tea . His eyebrows furrowed as he fell into contemplation . He had managed to temporarily suppress the matter of Jiang Taishou dying . But he knew it was a fact that because of this matter, he had offended the Chief Elder as well as a number of other people .

Compared to those people, he was still too weak . He should find some way to increase his strength . That way, even if some accident occurred in the future, he would have something he could rely on . Qin Yu didn’t believe that he could rest without worries after the gambling fight event at Heavenwait Temple . In front of a genuine powerhouse, the strength he displayed wasn’t anything at all .

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed . He left behind a message that he was going into seclusion and then entered the training chamber . He turned his hand and took out the storage ring . With a flick of his sleeve, light flashed and countless blue veins appeared, filling up a corner of the chamber .

These blue veins were the harvests that Qin Yu had obtained in the Infinite Realm after two powerful beings had killed each other . They were materials that could be refined into a Super Storm Flow . Those terrifying life forms in the mountain valley had been suppressed by the rules of the Infinite Realm and struggled to stay alive . Even so, they were horrifically strong . At their peak they must have been inconceivable formidable beings .

With materials provided by those terrifying life forms, he could refine a set of Super Storm Flow magic weapons . This was enough to become one of Qin Yu’s terrifying hidden cards! Although he could use this card only one time, it should be enough to protect himself .

He lifted a hand and a blue vein flew over, falling into his grasp . A drop of blood fell from his fingertip and fused into the blue vein . A day later, a pale-faced Qin Yu looked at the several dozen refined blue veins and bitterly smiled .

The materials provided by those terrifying life forms were incomparably potent . He had now built up the Undying True Demon Body and his blood essence was exceedingly formidable . But after spending a whole day, he had only refined this much; the degree of difficulty far surpassed his imagination . Optimistically speaking, if he wanted to entirely refine this set of Super Storm Flow, he would need at least two to three months!

As he thought, a hidden card wasn’t that easy to create .

Qin Yu shook his head . He swallowed down a pill and closed his eyes to restore his blood essence . Luckily, the Undying True Demon Body regenerated quickly . If it were anyone else, they would likely be hugging onto a pile of blue veins and crying out helplessly .

Chapter 427B – Exchanging for Souls and Blood

A month later, Qin Yu left seclusion in a hurry . He refined several furnaces full of pills to exchange for spirit plant materials, and then turned back and entered the training chamber .

In the blink of an eye, almost two more months passed .

Within the chamber, Qin Yu’s hands rapidly moved as he formed law formulas with his fingers . Red light flashed on the surface of the blue vein in front of him and thick slaughter energy continuously tumbled around it . With a light hum, the tumbling energy in the blue vein settled down and stabilized . As it did, it turned pitch black, as if it were forged from some kind of metal .

He had finished!

Qin Yu’s face was filled with pleasant surprise . He took a deep breath and flicked his sleeves, taking out the dense pile of blue veins . There just happened to be 1024 in total .

At this moment, these blue veins seemed to resonate with each other . They flew into the air on their own, circling around Qin Yu’s head .

Hou –

With a vicious roar, the phantom of a giant beast appeared between these blue veins . It was that terrifying life form from the Infinite Realm’s mountain valley . It reared its head back and roared . Even though it was only a phantom, the aura it released shook the heart . Space began to violently tremble as small cracks rapidly appeared .

Pa –

Pa –

The walls of the training chamber began to shine as massive runes appeared . But then the runes shattered . The chamber’s isolating array formation simply couldn’t withstand the strength of this phantom!

Qin Yu’s complexion changed . With a thought, the great beast phantom released a roar of unwillingness as its form distorted and vanished . After that, the 1024 refined blue veins were put away in the token space .

The terrifying aura rapidly dissipated . Qin Yu looked around at the chamber which seemed to have suffered a catastrophe and his smile widened . Finally, he laughed out loud, his joyous voice reverberating along the walls .

Super Storm Flow, this was really a Super Storm Flow! In terms of strength, it was far greater than what he imagined…it could actually summon a phantom that possessed a part of the might of that terrifying life form!

Although he couldn’t experiment with it and find out the true strength of this Super Storm Flow set, he could still sense how ferocious it was . His intuition told him that once he detonated it, anyone below the Calamity Immortal realm who touched this would surely suffer a horrific death!

This was a great card! A super great card!

But after his brief moment of excitement, he began to worry . This Super Storm Flow set was different from those he refined before . If he wanted to detonate it, he would need to provide sufficient blood energy .

According to Qin Yu’s estimation, if he really wanted to detonate it, he would be sucked dry . Although he wouldn’t die, there was an over 90% chance that he would turn into a log of wood that wouldn’t be able to move .

This made things a little awkward…it was true that the Super Storm Flow could maintain his life, but if he really used it to eliminate his enemy, he would then become a piece of meat on the block, able to be freely butchered by anyone around .

After thinking about it for a long time, Qin Yu still couldn’t find a way to solve this dilemma . The only thing he could think about was promoting his Undying True Demon Body to the next level in a short period of time .

But that was obviously impossible .

“I used nearly three months and lost several buckets full of blood, but now you are telling me that if I use this weapon, there is an 80% chance I will die anyways…” Qin Yu had a sad and annoyed expression . He clenched his teeth and said, “Since I can’t depend on this Super Storm Flow alone, I need to increase my number of methods . ”

He pondered for some time . Qin Yu discovered that even though he had many good things and even though his cultivation method was heaven-defying, these weren’t things that could drastically increase his strength in a short period of time . Only the Monster Raising Mystic Art had that possibility . If he could obtain enough high level monster beast blood and souls and complete the first stage of cultivation, the strength of the Purpleback Bluewing Ants would drastically rise . Even if he stimulated the eruption of the Super Storm Flow set, he could at least rely on these ants to withdraw .

The Black Demon Sect had obtained a fake Monster Raising Mystic Art and had limited the purchasing of high level monster beast souls and blood . But now as the true number one alchemist of the Black Demon Sect, requesting some souls and blood for experimenting with pills shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Qin Yu’s thoughts raced . Soon, his eyes brightened as he came up with a plan .

The next day, Tuba brought several spirit stones cards given by Qin Yu and left the Black Demon Sect after changing his appearance . At almost the same time, Qin Yu arrived at the Exchange Hall and requested to purchase several portions of high level monster beast souls and blood .

Sure enough, one of the managing Elders of the Exchange Hall quickly moved, inviting him deeper into the hall to speak in further detail .

After the guest and host took a seat across from each other, the managing Elder smiled and said, “Grandmaster Yao, may I ask why you are exchanging for high level monster beast souls and blood?” His eyes flashed, then he seemed to inadvertently say, “If I’m not wrong, grandmaster should have come to the Exchange Hall not too long ago and asked about information related to high level monster beast blood and souls . ”

Qin Yu’s voice was low and deep, filled with a bit of unhappiness . “I need high level monster beast blood and souls to experiment with pills . When I asked before, I was informed that the sect had forbidden any such exchanges . I didn’t think much about it, so I sent people outside the sect to purchase them, but then I found that I couldn’t! Since I have no other way, I can only come here again and ask when you are planning to resume the exchange . ”

He had indeed sent Tuba, with his token, to leave the Black Demon Sect and purchase materials he needed to refine pills . If the managing Elder investigated it, this was what he would find .

Indeed, most of the caution in the managing Elder’s eyes scattered and his smile warmed up . “So it was like this…” He hesitated and said, “I wish to be open and honest with grandmaster . Because of some recent matters, the sect needs to use up a massive amount of high level monster beast blood and souls . So, supplies will not be restored any time soon . ”

Qin Yu’s voice was icy cold . “Then, my research must come to a stop?”

The managing Elder waved his hand . “Grandmaster need not be anxious . If anyone else were to come for an exchange, I wouldn’t dare to allow them . But since grandmaster’s strength is so outstanding, any breakthrough in research will surely be a great advantage to my Black Demon Sect . So, I will immediately send up a report . If grandmaster doesn’t need much, I should be able to apply for some . ”

“Four kinds, I need at least four kinds of high level monster beast souls and blood! Otherwise, there is no way to carry on my experiments . ” Qin Yu finally said after a bit of hesitation .

The managing Elder had an awkward expression . “This…well, I can try my best . ”

A moment later, the managing Elder returned, a smile on his face . “Grandmaster Yao, the application has been made . The four different kinds of monster beast blood and souls are here . Their information and numbers are all within this jade slip . ” As he spoke, he placed a silver-white metal storage box on the table .

Qin Yu opened it up and inspected it . After determining there was no problem, he said, “I owe you a favor today . If you need any help in the future, feel free to ask . ”

The managing Elder’s face lit up . “Then I’ll have to thank grandmaster . ”

He didn’t say any further . After paying for the exchange, Qin Yu left the Exchange Hall . He had a puzzled look beneath his black robe . He thought that some twists and turns would happen in the exchange process and that even if the Black Demon Sect finally agreed, they would surely reduce the amount . He never imagined it would happen so smoothly .

Did the Black Demon Sect really regard him so highly as the true number one alchemist? Or was there something else he didn’t know about?

Qin Yu shook his head and suppressed this thought . After all, no matter what was said, it was fact that he had obtained the souls and blood of these four high level monster beasts .

…

Somewhere in a forbidden zone of the Black Demon Sect .

The Chief Elder cupped his hands together . “Sect Master, why did you agree to exchange high level monster beast souls and blood to Yao Bin? You must know that we are in the critical moment of the second step of cultivation and the sect doesn’t have much stock left . ”

Demonic energy lingered about . One could vaguely see a sitting figure within . His eyes opened slowly, two sharp flashes of light coming from within them . “The hidden danger in my body has yet to be fully removed . I obtained a method long ago to eliminate it once and for all, but this method requires the use of several different types of poisons . With even the slightest mistake, the consequences would be dire . This is why I delayed it until now . ”

The Chief Elder was overjoyed . “Sect Master, are you saying you want to take advantage of Yao Bin and have him dispel any worries related to the poisons? That is too wonderful…if Sect Master can fully recover, my Black Demon Sect will be as stable as a mountain . ”

“There are still some preparations that need to be made concerning this matter . For the next period of time, don’t disturb me . ” The Black Demon Sect Master’s voice was gentle but allowed no refusal . “Look after Yao Bin well . Nothing must go wrong . ”

The Chief Elder bowed . “Yes . ”

He turned and left .
