Chapter 504: Exchange Demon Core

he sky.Countless turbulent currents filled the air, easily tearing apart even his protective spiritual shield. The swirling storms that passed through were comparable to attacks from a Golden Core cul...Three arrows in a row, without any pause, each arrow almost mobilized the strength of his whole body. The nine-colored golden core in his dantian was spinning non-stop. At this time, Lu Xiaoteng was also gasping for breath. He was quite unaccustomed to this fighting style. When he was in the foundation building period, he rarely had an opponent at the same level, so he rarely had to expend so much effort to kill monsters with others. Although through this battle, Lu Xiaoteng had a clearer understanding of his own strength. The nine-colored golden core seemed to be stronger in magical power and stamina than ordinary Jindan cultivators, which was an unexpected joy.

If Meng Lao Gui and the others knew Lu Xiaotian's thoughts at this time, they would probably be unable to help but scold Lu Xiaotian for not knowing his blessings. They were also fellow cultivators in the early stage of Jindan, and their dan formation time was longer than Lu Xiaotian's, yet they lacked Lu Xiaotian's decisive attack. Meng Lao Gui and Tao Jing joined forces, and even now they couldn't defeat this slightly weaker monster king. To kill this monster king would probably take a considerable amount of time. Most cultivators hunting monsters similar in strength to them engaged in a grueling battle, needing to rely on the right time and place, set traps, and there was still a chance the monster could escape. Lu Xiaotian came here for the first time and teamed up with Mo Wentian to hunt down a seventh-rank, powerful Jindan-level monster. Whether it was efficiency or Lu Xiaotian's individual attack power in the early stage of Jindan cultivators, it was enough to be considered top-notch. Considering that Lu Xiaotian had only been cultivating for about twenty years since his dan formation, several people couldn't help but envy him in their hearts.

"This demon king of the antelope, whose strength is a little lacking, doesn't bother Senior Lu and Senior Mo to make a move." Tao Xiaofeng said with a composed face.

"Rest assured, I won't steal yours." Mo Wentian chuckled, panting heavily as he put the Xu Xie spirit fire into a green vial.

Lu Xiaottian also stood aside, starting to control the cracked earth blade to divide the body of the Golden-horned Demonic Antelope King. The Golden-horned Demonic Antelope's primordial spirit suddenly darted out from the wound, panicked and trying to escape at a high speed. Lu Xiaottian directly shot out a finger and launched a gray sheet that enveloped it, putting it into a small bottle. "I want the demonic pill and primordial spirit essence. The Golden-horned Demonic Antelope King's golden horn is yours, and you should take everything else. In the future, prioritize giving me the demonic pills, how about that"

"Alright, then it's settled. Since Daoist Lu needs the demon pill, I naturally won't dispute it. However, if you find it unsuitable later, don't come looking for me to settle accounts again." Seeing Lu Xia Tian's proficiency in the technique of restraining a soul, Mo Wen Tian was filled with surprise. His understanding of Lu Xiao Tian's mystery had deepened, and the demon beast's soul essence was of no use to him. Even that damaged demon pill wasn't as valuable as this sharp horn. Lu Xia Tian had exerted more effort just now, but he only wanted these two things. Naturally, Mo Wen Tian wouldn't object, and instead, a few feelings of excitement arose in his heart. It seemed that bringing Lu Xia Tian into the team was indeed a wise decision.

“Of course not.” Lu Xia Tian smiled upon hearing this. He wasn’t a fool; he could tell the value of the Golden-Horned Antelope King's body. However, since this was his first time collaborating with these three people, it had been quite pleasant so far. Moreover, their preparation work was indeed thorough. It wouldn't hurt to show some courtesy. Besides, facing a seventh-rank monster head-on for the first time, Lu Xia Tian realized just how difficult they were to deal with. He couldn’t possibly hunt down a seventh-rank beast alone; it wasn’t easy at all. In the future, he would still need their help. Looking at the current situation, he used the Golden-Horned Antelope King’s primordial spirit and essence to refine the Golden-Horned Antelope Soul Battle Bead, greatly increasing his strength. However, the Soul Battle Bead was a consumable item. If he didn’t replenish it in time, his combat power would quickly diminish again. Staying with these three people for now was still very necessary.

After about the time of a stick of incense, Meng Lao Gui and Tao Xiaofeng killed another demon king, an antelope, whose strength was significantly weaker.

“This demonic pill and the soul of the demonic antelope, if you two find no great use for them, how about we exchange them” As the two were preparing to divide the corpse of the demonic beast, Lu Xia Tian stepped forward and once again trapped the escaping demonic antelope’s soul with a Soul Restraining Dome.

“Then it depends on Daoist Lu having something worth exchanging.” Meng Lao Gui chuckled, feeling a little displeased in his heart. He hadn’t even had time to discuss with Tao Xiaofeng before Lu Xiaotian approached, wanting something. It was a bit too eager, wasn't it If it were when Lu Xiaotian first arrived, Meng Lao Gui might have directly retorted. However, after the recent battle, Lu Xiaotian had demonstrated strength comparable to his own. As for Meng Lao Gui’s sophisticated nature, he naturally wouldn’t easily offend someone of such caliber.

“Qingling Pill!” Tao Xiaofeng’s small mouth widened immediately when she saw Lu Xiaoxian pour out a pill from a small bottle. They collected monster materials mostly to improve their cultivation. As for magic weapons, they would only consider replacing the dan yuan magic weapons that had been nurtured for many years if they found something extremely suitable.

“No problem, this demon king’s demon pill will be given to Daoist Lu as well. How many Qingling Pills does Daoist Lu have I still have two seventh-order golden system demon pills and one seventh-order water system demon pill in my hand.” Tao Xiaofeng hesitated for a moment before immediately nodding in agreement.

“Hold on, Tao Daoyou, I also have a share of this demonic antelope. The ownership of the demon pill hasn't been decided yet, how can you act so presumptuously. Lu Daoyou, I think we should split the Qingling Pill in half, with my Daoist friend Tao and myself each taking half. Besides, I also have a seventh-grade gold-attribute demon pill in my hand. And a seventh-grade wood-attribute demon pill. I wonder if Lu Daoyou has any extra Qingling Pills to trade” Meng Laogui’s face was now plastered with a fawning smile. He secretly thought that he was lucky he hadn't offended Lu Xiaottian just now, otherwise this deal would have fallen through.

"Alright, but I only want golden-attribute Spirit Pills. You can exchange whatever you have with me. However, I need some time." Lu XiaTian nodded.

"You, could it be that you're still an alchemist" Mo Wentian seemed to have heard the implication in Lu Xiaitian's words at this time.

Elder Meng took the pill and shuddered. He was suddenly struck with realization. He hadn't reacted properly! A cold sweat broke out on his back as he realized he had almost offended a master alchemist, perhaps even an advanced one. His heart pounded in fear. Thankfully, he had stopped himself in time. Otherwise, who knows how this person would react If he were more narrow-minded, Elder Meng might have a hard time moving around Qingzhou City. In a place like this, amidst the chaos of war, the value of a master alchemist far exceeds that of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.

"I guess so." Lu Xiaotian didn't deny it. Wanting to collect Jinxi demon pills faster was the only way, but it was limited to using others' herbs to refine medicinal pills. Otherwise, if medicinal pills continuously came out of his hands, even the most foolish person would suspect that the source of the pills in his hand wasn't just a simple alchemist.
