Chapter 619: Chapter 619 Cold Dragon Essence Marrow Pill Chapter 619: Chapter 619 Cold Dragon Essence Marrow Pill Under the focused gaze of everyone.
The whole square-shaped piece of black jade trembled slightly.
The center of the jade surface slowly cracked open to reveal a neat slit.
A metal handle slowly floated up from the slit.
Then, the jade box stopped vibrating.
Ling Shu patted his thumping heart.
According to the mantra, he grasped the handle and gently lifted it.
The top of the square black jade, like a lid, was lifted.
Hiss–
Jetting out was a stream of unknown white mist.
Everyone cautiously stepped back.
Liu Li and Ling Shu retreated simultaneously.
Mindful not to forget the disabled Jiang Fan.
They both grabbed at Jiang Fan, intending to pull him to the back.
But as they grabbed, they caught nothing but air.
Only then did they realize.
Before they had opened the jade box, Jiang Fan had already flashed to a corner.
His body was covered in a layer of crystal, and he held the Purple Sword for defense.
Looking extremely cautious.
Liu Li was taken aback, both amused and annoyed: “You're even more sly than a rabbit!”
While everyone else was curious about the jade box.
Jiang Fan had already hidden away!
Ling Shu shook his head in mixed amusement and exasperation: “Jiang Fan, you're too cautious, aren't you?”
Seeing that the white mist was harmless.
Jiang Fan put away the Purple Sword, but the crystal on his body remained.
“I don't want to suffer from the Tiger Demon Emperor's relic again.”
A bottle of the Tiger Demon Emperor's essence blood had almost killed Jiang Fan on the spot.
With such a precious relic box, he couldn't be too careful.
Seeing it was fine, Jiang Fan approached the jade box.
He peered inside cautiously.
A snow-white pill, perfectly preserved.
The white mist earlier had emanated from this pill.
“A pill?”
“Elder Han, what kind of pill is this?”
Everyone was excited.
Pills left by the Tiger Demon Emperor were undoubtedly not ordinary.
It was precisely such discoveries that were hoped for during expeditions.
Because their effects were straightforward.
Far more valuable than some documents or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Han Feidao, also excited, leaned in to scrutinize it closely.
But after a long look, he shook his head slightly: “I've never seen it before.”
“Ling Shu, put it away first, I'll check my records and let you know later.”
Ling Shu's face flushed with joy.
The Tiger Demon Emperor's jade box indeed contained treasures.
She reached out to grab it, but Jiang Fan smacked her hand away.
“The Cold Dragon Essence Marrow Pill, and you dare touch it directly?”
“Don't you want your hand?”
Ling Shu pulled back her hand in pain, exclaiming: “Oh, you recognize it again, brother?”
This pill was filled with demon power, obviously a spirit pill of the demon clan.
How did Jiang Fan recognize it?
Jiang Fan remained silent.
He casually grabbed a ten-year-old piece of spiritual meat from the table and tossed it toward the seemingly mundane snow-white spirit pill.
The result.
Before it even got close to the pill.
The pill shot out a startling snow-white cold air, freezing the spiritual meat into powder.
Yes.
It turned into powder instantly.
Without any pause.
“Hiss!” Ling Shu was so frightened she hid behind Jiang Fan.
Her face was filled with alarm: “Brother, why is this pill so dangerous?”
The others were also scared and took several steps back.
If it accidentally hit a vital body part, wouldn't it mean instant death?
Jiang Fan said: “For demons not of the ice element, it's as lethal as poison.”
“Not a trace can be touched.”
He then.
Took out a jade bottle and used his spiritual power to place the Cold Dragon Essence Marrow Pill into it from a distance.
Sealed it with a mark afterward.
“Next time, don't use your hands to touch it.” Jiang Fan tossed the jade bottle to Ling Shu.
Carefully accepting it, Ling Shu looked at the extremely dangerous pill in the jade bottle, showing a look of lingering fear:
“Good thing I have you, otherwise I would've been in danger today.”
She took the opportunity to latch onto Jiang Fan's arm.
Putting on a very scared expression.
Jiang Fan smiled and said: “This pill, as long as you don't touch it directly, isn't dangerous.”
“Unfortunately, you can't use it.”
“It's for enhancing the Demon Emperor's cultivation. Core Formation Realm cultivators would surely die from using it.”
What?
Enhancing the Demon Emperor's cultivation?
Ling Shu was taken aback, never expecting that this pill had such great use.
But thinking about it, since it was left by the Tiger Demon Emperor, it seemed reasonable enough.
“Ling Shu, after the gathering ends, go to the Demon Emperor Court immediately and offer this pill to the Demon Emperor.”
“Don't delay.”
After his initial shock, Han Feidao calmly instructed.
Ling Shu was somewhat reluctant.
Offering it to the Demon Emperor would at most garner a bit of reward.
Selling it would surely fetch a handsome price.
She looked to Jiang Fan for guidance.
Jiang Fan pondered briefly and said: “Listen to him.”
“Offer it to the Demon Emperor, and do it quickly.”
The Demon Emperor was a suspicious and ruthless person.
If Ling Shu kept this pill meant for the Demon Emperor.
It would be hard for him not to suspect if she planned to sell it to the Beihai Demon Clan, or whether her own clan was about to produce a Demon Emperor.
To avoid such troubles, it was better to offer it proactively.
And best to do so before the Demon Emperor got word of it.
Otherwise, it would still leave a suspicion of hoarding the Demon Emperor's spirit pill.
“Alright, I'll listen to you, brother.”
Ling Shu seemed to understand the gravity of the situation.
She decisively agreed.
Everyone once again looked at the now empty jade box.
Hun Yuan said: “Such a big jade box, surely there's more than one pill?”
Apparently not.
The compartment holding the pill was just one part of the jade box.
There should be more below.
But this time, everybody was more careful.
Without waiting for Jiang Fan to retreat, everyone stepped back again.
No one dared to open the lower compartment lightly.
Jiang Fan shrugged and said:
“Is it necessary? You're all such cowards.”
Liu Li's face turned red: “You have the nerve to say that?”
Just now, Jiang Fan was the first to run away!
Jiang Fan didn't hide this time.
He came forward, pinched the edge with his fingers, and lifted it up.
The second layer compartment was revealed.
There was no danger.
The jade box was meant for storing items, not as a harmful trap.
Besides.
If there were traps, they would have been triggered the first time it was opened.
If set at the back, with the opener already cautious, how could it still harm anyone?
So, it was evident there wouldn't be further danger.
Seeing there was no danger, everyone quickly ran over.
Upon looking, they saw a piece of jade-like white bone in the second compartment.
Engraved with demon clan characters.
Jiang Fan exclaimed: “It's a demon clan cultivation technique, and a high-level Earth-level one at that. Quite rare.”
It was the first time he had seen a demon clan technique.
The demon clan excelled mostly in physical strength, with some able to activate innate bloodlines.
So far, he hadn't encountered demons who practiced cultivation techniques.
Unexpectedly, the Tiger Demon Emperor had left one.
Ling Shu found it incredible: “Our demon clan actually has cultivation techniques.”
“How rare!”
“Brother, what should I do with this technique?”
“Should I also give it to the Demon Emperor?”
Jiang Fan said helplessly: “My advice is.”
“Show the Demon Emperor everything discovered today.”
“Otherwise, the Demon Emperor will be restless.”
With the Tiger Demon Emperor's jade box opened.
How could the Demon Emperor not suspect that it might contain treasures threatening his rule?
Only by checking everything would the Demon Emperor be at ease.
“However, techniques are different from other items.”
“You can transcribe a copy.”
Ling Shu nodded.
She immediately produced paper and pen and transcribed two copies.
Keeping one for herself, she handed the other to Jiang Fan: “I made a copy for you too, brother.”
This made Hun Yuan's eyes red with envy.
He had been close friends with Ling Shu for years.
She never made him a copy.
She just met Jiang Fan, and now her mind is full of him!
Jiang Fan accepted it without hesitation.
And then looked back at the jade box.
From the remaining height, there was likely just one more compartment.
And the most important items were often stored deepest.
