Chapter 1212: Difficult Negotiation

“You want to take away ten million drops of divine blood? Impossible. After hundreds of thousands of years, not much divine blood still remains in the Blood God’s corpse. If we don’t use it sparingly, it’ll be dried out quickly. An ancient sect will definitely weaken without the support of divine blood.”

Elder Yuan Xing’s attitude was definite. It was like Zhang Ruochen had to cross over his dead body in order to get the ten million drops of divine blood.

Elder Yuan Zhou wiped the sweat from his forehead. “Divine blood is incredibly strong. One drop can shatter a mountain. If it is dropped on a Hundred-pattern Saint Weapon, the weapon can be penetrated. There is nothing that can even contain ten million drops of divine blood.”

“I think otherwise.” Zhang Ruochen took out a small jar made out of wood from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree. Holding it in his hand, he said, “Use this. It’s enough to contain divine blood.”

Elder Yuan Xing had created the Time and Space Martial Deity Print, which was of wood element. Thus, he was very sensitive to wood elemental spiritual treasures. The wooden jar in Gu Linfeng’s hands definitely wasn’t a typical wooden treasure. The wood contained very mysterious Rules of Saintly Way.

He practically snatched the half-inch-tall wooden jar from Zhang Ruochen’s hands.

“This…this is…it can’t be…”

Elder Yuan Xing studied the patterns in the wood. He also put in a shred of Holy Qi to investigate the wood element inside the jar.

As an old thing who’d lived for centuries, Elder Yuan Xing was obviously well-learned. He already had some guesses, but he found it hard to believe.

Elder Yuan Zhou was stunned. He’d never seen Yuan Xing lose his calm like this. “What is this?” he asked curiously. “Is it a jar made out of an ancient sacred tree?”

An ancient sacred tree was worth cities. Any piece of bark peeled off was as valuable as a saint stone.

If Gu Linfeng’s jar was really made out of the wood from an ancient sacred tree, then it could be sold for a shocking price of a few hundred saint stones.

Elder Yuan Xing shook his head. Unable to hide his shock, he looked at Zhang Ruochen. “Is this…” he said, voice trembling, “made from the wood of the legendary Divine Sky-connecting Tree?”

“Yes.”

Zhang Ruochen looked very calm as if this was nothing. After all, the Divine Sky-connecting Tree was huge in the scroll world. It could create millions of jars. They were as cheap as cabbage.

Plus, the Qi of the tree was all used to grow new divine trees and had already been used up. To Zhang Ruochen, the wood from the tree wasn’t very valuable.

“I received this batch of jars made from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree by chance,” Zhang Ruochen added. “Unfortunately, the Qi of the divine tree was completely gone. I can only use it to store saintly blood and divine blood.”

Elder Yuan Xing was so excited that his eyes seemed to burn. “Who told you that the wood loses value after the divine Qi is gone? This is the Divine Sky-connecting Tree’s wood. Even without the Qi, it’s still a huge treasure for creating pills and weapons.

“When creating a divine pill, you can add some of the wood’s dust to increase the pill’s medical abilities. When creating a saint weapon, adding the wood not only increases the chance of success. It also improves the weapon’s power.

“Also, cultivators of the wood element only need to refine enough wood from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree for the same effect as absorbing a saintly source. It’ll be easier for them to reach the Saint Realm.”

“Really?” Zhang Ruochen was surprised. He’d actually overlooked the huge value of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree.

Actually, it was because he had too much of the wood. The more of something one had, the cheaper it seemed. He didn’t know that the pill and weapon masters of Kunlun’s Field dreamed of finding a piece of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree to create ancient divine pills and powerful saint weapons.

Gradually, Elder Yuan Xing calmed down. “Hierarch,” he said. “Where did you receive so many jars made from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree?”

Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment. Then he took close to 100 jars from his spatial ring. They varied in size and were all made from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree.

The smallest one was only the size of his palm. The biggest one was two meters tall.

Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou weren’t shocked that Zhang Ruochen had a spatial ring. After all, the entire cultivation world was gossiping that the young Hierarch was close friends with the Time and Space Descendant. It was very logical for him to get a spatial ring from the Time and Space Descendant.

However, the various jars dumbfounded them again. The two Saint Elders stared at the jars as if they were beautiful girls. They could barely stop themselves from pouncing and embracing the jars.

Zhang Ruochen chuckled. “As long as you’re willing to let me take away ten million drops of divine blood, I can give all of these jars to you.”

“No.” Elder Yuan Xing calmed down. He looked at the wooden jars on the ground and then at the Blood God’s corpse. Thinking carefully, he said, “One hundred thousand drops and nothing more.”

“Yes,” Elder Yuan Zhou said. “One hundred thousand drops is already the limit of the Blood God Sect. The most that the previous Hierarch took out was 30,000 drops. That time, he still got rejected by all the Saints in the sect.”

Even the Hierarch couldn’t do anything that he wished. The various elders of the Elder Pavilion could veto the Hierarch’s over-the-top decisions.

For example, Zhang Ruochen wanting to take away ten million drops was very over-the-top. No elder would agree to it.

Zhang Ruochen frowned. Then he said, “Taking away ten million drops at once is indeed hard to accept. How about this? I’ll take out some more treasures in exchange for the divine blood.”

“What treasures?”

Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou both looked excited. The Hierarch was still very young, but he had a powerful fate. Since he could have so much wood from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, he might be able to take out more extreme treasures.

The wood of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree could strengthen the entirety of the Blood God Sect. It was enough to be called the “supporting treasure of the sect.”

If the Hierarch could take out more like that, the Elder Pavilion could loosen the restrictions and let him take away more divine blood.

Zhang Ruochen took another wooden jar out of his spatial ring and handed it to Elder Yuan Xing.

Another jar made out of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree? Just how much wood does he have?

Elder Yuan Xing tried hard to control himself. He accepted the jar and opened the lid.

Whoosh!

Black light surged out, radiating with a light medical fragrance. It spread in all directions instantly.

Elder Yuan Xing quickly closed the lid. “The wooden jar is completely filled with Grade Seven Saintly Source Sacred Liquid?” he asked, bewildered.

“Correct. I received the Grade Seven Saintly Source Sacred Liquid when I was in the Blue Dragon Void World. I have 5,000 small cups in total. It can create 5,000 Divine Origin Pills. How many drops of divine blood do you think I can exchange it for?”

Divine Origin Pills could produce a large group of Half-Saints. It possessed immeasurable value.

Receiving 5,000 small cups of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid made Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou ecstatic. They could use this to quickly reinvigorate the sect.

The two Saint Elders discussed the value of the 5,000 cups.

Elder Yuan Zhou grabbed the wooden jars and pushed them and the 5,000 drops of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid to his back. He put up five fingers. “Fifty thousand drops of divine blood,” he said.

“One cup of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid for ten drops of divine blood. That’s reasonable.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t bargain with them. He just smiled and took 20 huge wooden jars out of his spatial ring.

“Each jar before you contains 50,000 small cups of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid. There are one million cups in total. With this, I can take away ten million drops of divine blood. You have no objections, right?”

“One million cups of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid… How is that possible?”

Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou felt befuddled. Even with their mindset and experience, they were still shocked by how Zhang Ruochen kept taking out treasures. After all, the Blood God Sect had sent a large group of Half-Saints to the Blue Dragon Void World to fight for the Saintly Source Sacred Liquid, but all of them had only gotten 1,000 small cups in total.

This young Hierarch had actually taken out one million cups at once. This was naturally hard to believe.

The two Saint Elders flipped open the 20 lids as quickly as possible. They really were filled with Saintly Source Sacred Liquid. They roughly estimated that there were indeed one million small cups.

They took a great blow to their composure. They stood there dumbly, not even breathing anymore. Even during the Blood God Sect’s prime era, they’d only had a few thousand cups saved up.

One million cups was enough for the Blood God Sect to use comfortably for a millennium.

Of course, if they could use all these cups, the Blood God Sect would be able to produce a large group of Half-Saints in a short period. They would quickly rise up and become a thriving and powerful sect.

How could the two Saint Elders remain calm?

Of course, they didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen had taken a huge amount of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid. The one million cups was only a small portion.

A pause later, Elder Yuan Zhou said, “Isn’t ten million drops of divine blood too much? Hierarch, even if you want to cultivate your body, it’s unnecessary to take that much at once.”

While speaking, Elder Yuan Zhou took three steps forward to put the 20 jars of Saintly Source Sacred Liquid behind him. He was clearly worried that Zhang Ruochen would take them back.

“I won’t waste the divine blood. Instead, I want to use them to create Blood Repression Runes to counter the Immortal Vampires. If we have a large amount of the runes, we won’t have to worry about the Vampires’ revenge.”

Zhang Ruochen revealed some information about the Blood Repression Runes to Elder Yuan Xing and Yuan Zhou.

The two Saint Elders were quite worried that the Immortal Vampires would take revenge. After learning the true motive behind Zhang Ruochen taking the divine blood, they were quite moved.

They’d seen the power of the Blood Repression Runes. Even the Hierarch Madame could be suppressed, let alone other Immortal Vampire Saints.
