Chapter 835 - Secret Deal

Chapter 835: Secret Deal

Han Fei had planned to leave.

He had got the hang of the Void Lines. All he needed to do was to experiment on a Half-Mermaid or an Inferior Man-Fish to see how good the Divine Manipulation Technique was.

For example, could he control the target’s demonic Qi? Could he use their power? Could he acquire their knowledge?

It wasn’t easy for him to run the tests on the Red Blood Butterfly Fish. He forgot to test its cloning ability too.

He didn’t intend to experience it for now, as he had been caught by the old turtle at the bottom of the lake on the first day of fishing.

However, when Han Fei was about to rise and leave, what the old turtle said made him sit down again.

He couldn’t help but ask, Senior, what do you mean?

Hearing about the returns, Han Fei was no longer anxious. After all, the old turtle was immobile, and probably couldn’t kill him with the soul. He never heard of anybody who died at the Empyrean Waterfall!

The big turtle said unhurriedly, Don’t human beings all like tSpirit Awakening Fluid? I can give you that if you have demonic Qi.

Han Fei was stunned for a moment. Wait, senior, are you so confident that I have demonic Qi? I’m a human!

The big turtle replied slowly, Spiritual energy and demonic Qi are both optional for the cultivation of sea creatures. Spiritual energy can be transformed into demonic Qi, but not very fast. You can also provide power that’s above spiritual energy and demonic Qi.

Han Fei was silent for a moment. If he were to turn into a sea demon, he could transform spiritual energy into demonic Qi rather fast. But he didn’t really have any power that was above them!

Han Fei chuckled. Senior, I think there must be a misunderstanding. I don’t have demonic Qi or a higher power. If you need spiritual energy, I can establish a Spirit Gathering Array for you, so that you will have inexhaustible spiritual energy.

The big turtle hesitated for a moment. Without mentioning the demonic Qi anymore, it said, I’m resting right above a spring of Spirit Awakening Fluid. If you don’t need it, never mind! However, don’t come through the Red Blood Butterfly Fish again...

Han Fei secretly gasped. A spring of Spirit Awakening Fluid?

Didn’t it mean that there was infinite Spirit Awakening Fluid underneath the Empyrean Waterfall?

Han Fei glanced at Big Yellow and said casually, “Big Yellow, I’m going to Senior Ye’s. Have fun fishing!”

Meow!

Cats were always independent. It was the same for the cat whether or not Han Fei was with it.

However, Big Yellow did remember that Han Fei said that he would cook at night, so it decided to visit him at night.

...

At Ye Qingfeng’s home.

While the old poison monster promised Han Fei to push the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect to level-40, it would’ve taken him months to achieve the goal if he were only to have a cup of tea every afternoon.

So, Han Fei smiled and asked, “Senior Ye, can I dig some of your poisonous, considerable grasses or fruits?”

Ye Qingfeng was feeling two centipedes in front of a cage. He replied to Han Fei’s question casually, “If a Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect is fed with the same poison, it will slowly gain resistance. How about this? You extend your hand into the cage and let my centipedes bite you.”

Han Fei couldn’t have looked more awful. To be bitten by the disgusting things that were full of legs?

Han Fei gasped at the horror of poison cultivators. If any accident happened at this guy’s place, the entire Empyrean Waterfall would be covered in poisonous creatures.

Ye Qingfeng must’ve been exiled to the Empyrean Waterfall exactly for that reason.

With his lips twisted, Han Fei walked close and saw a colorful centipede and a red one. He swallowed. “Am I going to extend my hand just like that? Senior Ye, I think you can just let them spit out some venom and I’ll drink it with tea.”

Ye Qingfeng laughed. “What do you know? Some poisons may have subtle reactions with tea. It won’t be as straightforward as biting. Come on. Extend your hand to it.”

Han Fei extended his hands unwillingly. Then, the two giant centipedes tied up his hands and made Han Fei jitter.

A moment later, Han Fei felt the sting on his hands, but the two centipedes failed to bite through his skin.

Ye Qingfeng was quite speechless too. He quickly said, “Take out your hands right now and cut a wound on yourself. I don’t want my centipedes to lose their teeth.”

Han Fei didn’t know what to say. It was the first time that he cut himself to let a venomous thing bite him. Other people would’ve thought that he was insane!

However, a moment later, when the green and red stripes surfaced underneath his skin, Han Fei knew that the poisons were horrifying.

He felt that his arms were numb, and that the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect was already moving. It feasted upon the poison.

The stripes on his arms dwindled at a visible speed.

Han Fei didn’t come back to himself until half an hour later.

Ye Qingfeng was feeding grasses to other worms. Seeing that Han Fei recovered, he asked casually, “It hasn’t leveled up yet?”

Han Fei slightly shook his head. “Not yet.”

Ye Qingfeng remarked with mixed feelings. “As expected of the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect. But don’t feed it any more food today in case it dies of indigestion... You can have some other poison tomorrow. It will surely level up.”

“All right!”

In the evening.

Driving away Qing Chen and Big Yellow after dinner, Han Fei looked up at the Empyrean Waterfall.

Spirit Awakening Fluid was hard to come by. Mrs. Yin had kept the cat for at least a hundred years, yet it was merely level-61. Did it mean he had to raise the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp and others for a hundred years?

He quickly shook his head. When it was midnight, Han Fei cast a Breath Concealing Array and a Concealment Array on himself, before he came to the Empyrean Waterfall secretly.

This time, Han Fei simply spoke telepathically, Senior, although I don’t have demonic Qi, I do have some demonic stones. Most of them are mid-quality, some are high-quality, and a few are ultra-quality. Do you want them?

The big turtle replied, You’re back... I can accept demonic stones. However, one mid-quality demonic stone can only be exchanged for one kilogram. A high-quality stone, five kilograms. An ultra-quality stone, thirty kilograms. Is that fine with you?

Han Fei slightly frowned. Was the exchange rate so low?

He never thought that the demonic stones were useful even though he had dug almost a thousand of them in the sea demon mountains.

Because he had dug right underneath a spring of demonic Qi, there were no low-quality stones. He had about 600 mid-quality stones, 100 high-quality stones, and 200 ultra-quality stones.

He couldn’t even get ten thousand kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid even if he were to exchange all of them, and ten thousand kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid wasn’t enough for the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp after passing level-40.

Thinking for a moment, Han Fei said, Senior, I only have about 300 mid-quality, 100 high-quality, and a hundred ultra-quality stones. Can I have five thousand kilograms first? You know that it isn’t easy for human beings to get these kinds of stones.

After a moment of silence, the big turtle said, Okay!

Han Fei was delighted. He caught a Sea Swallowing Seashell with his fishing pole and threw it down.

A moment later, he pulled the fishing pole, confirmed the five thousand kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid in the Sea Swallowing Seashell, and collected it in Forge the Universe.

Do you want anything else? I really can’t get any demonic Qi. Maybe it was just the vibe of the demonic stones that you detected from me.

The big turtle said unhurriedly, One Longevity Stone can be exchanged for five hundred kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid. One Phoenix Spirit Ginseng, five thousand kilograms. One Heavenly Nutrition Ginseng, fifty thousand kilograms.

Han Fei’s heart slightly shivered. Is this big turtle trying to make a breakthrough?

He had heard about the Phoenix Spirit Ginseng before, which was said to be more nutritional than the Trivariant Golden Ginseng. He didn’t know what the Heavenly Nutrition Ginseng was.

There was no way that Han Fei was going to exchange demonic Qi for the Spirit Awakening Fluid. Should that be exposed, he would be punished. Even Old Han, who was still confined to the fourth level of the Scattered Stars Prison, couldn’t help him.

...

A moment later, at home.

Han Fei activated all the arrays and summoned the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp, Little Gold, and Little Fatty.

Han Fei reluctantly cleared the water in the pool and transmitted the five thousand kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid to it. Plus the three thousand kilograms that Le Renkuang offered him, there were eight thousand kilograms in total.

“There are eight thousand kilograms in total. You can split them up.”

Putong! Putong! Putong!

The three contractual spiritual beasts dove into the pool. A moment later, the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp had a level up, but Little Gold and Little Fatty were the same.

“Hiss! Damn it...”

Han Fei almost shed tears. They had eight thousand kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid, yet only the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp leveled up. Was that a joke?

Han Fei was amused. He was really poor!

It had almost been half a year since their last breakthrough!

Han Fei could foresee that even if he were to exchange the rest of his demonic stones with the big turtle, it would be barely enough for Little Gold and Little Fatty to advance.

“Well...”

Recalling the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp and Little Gold, Han Fei asked Little Fatty, “Have you inherited any method for quick growth? It’s really hard for me to keep raising you!”

The Little Fatty remained cold and indifferent. But when Han Fei sighed, it said slowly, “If I can go out more frequently and live in the sea, I will grow much faster.”

Han Fei was slightly intrigued, but then he sighed again, as a lot of problems could happen.

The areas near the shore were occupied by human beings. It was impossible to herd them there.

There might be dire consequences if three legendary creatures appeared. They would be doomed if an expert were to take action.

Han Fei shook his head. “That won’t do. Any other solutions?”

Thinking for a long time, Little Fatty said, “Swallowing my own kind.”

Han Fei didn’t know what to say. You are a legendary creature... Do you think I’ll let you swallow your own kind? I’d definitely keep them for myself! Even if I didn’t, I’d just seal its spirit, alright?

Han Fei suddenly asked, “What about exotic and rare creatures? Will it help if you swallow them?”

Little Fatty waved its tentacles, “Yes, but I have to eat a lot of them.”

Han Fei was instantly tempted. “I’ll give you meals every day in the future.”
