Chapter 13: Getting Rich!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Everything in the world worked in unison.
The humans from his previous life had already verified this.
The blood water in this unknown lake contained a terrifying corrosive energy!
It could even corrode Grade A+ experts.
However, even such a terrifying lake had a supernatural tree which could completely counter it.
The Violet Spirit Blood Tree grew near the lake.
It would absorb the blood water from the lake as its nutrients.
Once grown, the Violet Spirit Blood Tree would emit a domain field naturally.
This could completely isolate the corrosion of the lake water.
The Heaven Devouring Great Sage had been lucky back then. He had randomly grabbed a piece of wood with a purple glow and jumped into the lake, intending to use it as a life raft.
Unexpectedly, he got lucky, and it saved his life.
Chu Feng looked around carefully for any traces of the Violet Spirit Blood Tree.
The Violet Spirit Blood Tree was extremely important to him, not just because of the Devouring Bloodline.
To acc.u.mulate points, he would also need to use this kind of supernatural tree..
However, on the ground slope, he could only look with his eyes, and it was really difficult for him to find it this way.
As such, Chu Feng decided to take the risk and get closer to the Blood Lake.
His heart came up to his throat.
If the blood water were to splash onto his arm and leg, Chu Feng might have to become a hero without limbs in the future.
He trod around the Blood Lake with extreme caution.
The moment he saw the slightest ripple in the lake, Chu Feng would immediately scramble far away.
Thus, relying on his sharp senses trained in the previous life, he had some close shaves but was not harmed.
Finally, after half a day, he found a Violet Spirit Blood Tree about ten feet tall.
There was a faint purple glow.
But, when he got closer, the purple glow became more conspicuous.
Without any delay, Chu Feng went forward and uprooted it.
Then, he carried it and hurriedly found a cave, and hid inside.
He trimmed the Violet Spirit Blood Tree, squeezed out the juice from its branches, and set the purple juice aside for backup use.
He sliced a small section off from the thickest main trunk, and made a small can that looked like a bamboo tube.
He also made a tight-fitting wooden lid.
The remnant of big chunk of the Violet Spirit Blood Tree was carefully hidden in the cave.
Everything was ready.
Chu Feng felt extremely excited.
He could finally try to acc.u.mulate points.
Carrying with him the wooden can made from Violet Spirit Blood Tree, Chu Feng returned to the Blood Lake.
This time, he was going to collect the blood water!
As he approached the Blood Lake, Chu Feng’s heart was pounding fast.
If he was just a tiny bit careless, he would be done for.
He came to the edge of the lake with fear and trepidation.
This time, the boiling blood water was in close proximity.
Chu Feng could even smell the stench of blood.
Suddenly, a wave tumbled, bringing with it ebbs of blood water.
It was coming toward Chu Feng.
Gritting his teeth, Chu Feng did not flee. Instead, he held the wooden can made from the Violet Spirit Blood Tree in front of him.
A miraculous scene happened.
The blood water, with the capacity to even corrode a Grade A+ expert, came into contact with the purple glow emitted by the Violet Spirit Blood Tree. And surprisingly, as if it had contacted gla.s.s, it slid slowly to the ground.
A deep pit, the size of a head, appeared on the ground.
Chu Feng let out a long breath.
He had made the right bet.
Fortunately, he had the wooden can with him.
He carefully dug a channel and directed the blood water into the wooden can.
After filling the entire can with blood water, he hurriedly closed the lid of the wooden can.
He had obtained the blood water!
His plan could finally begin.
Chu Feng’s plan to obtain points could be put simply as killing monsters in a game.
And, it was like killing monsters across different grades!
In a pile of rubble not far from the Blood Lake, lived a powerful tribe, the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beasts!
The weakest Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beasts were all Grade B beasts.
In the tribe, the king of the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beasts was even an extremely rare Grade A beast.
To the current Chu Feng, if he were to encounter a beast of such a grade, he would not even need to run. He could just wait for death directly.
In his previous life, after the Heaven Devouring Great Sage had disclosed this location, a capable person discovered a ‘business opportunity’!
That fellow had learnt that the Heaven Devouring Great Sage had used the Violet Spirit Blood Tree to avoid being consumed by the corrosive blood water, and he suddenly had an idea.
The blood water is so terrifying. If it is used to kill the ferocious beasts, wouldn’t it be invincible? The ferocious beasts have low intelligence and act purely on instinct. If I can trap them somewhere, and use the blood water to attack them, wouldn’t I be able to acc.u.mulate points effortlessly?
So, that fellow made a bucket with the Violet Spirit Blood Tree and filled it with the blood water. Then, he went to test it on the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beasts.
In the end, he had really found a perfect place.
By using this method, he had made a fortune.
It was only after the entire tribe of Demon Devouring Blood Crown Beasts had been completely wiped out that he disclosed the method proudly.
Of course, this method was meaningless to Grade A+ and the stronger Grade S experts.
They could easily wipe out the Demon Devouring Blood Crown Beasts with their own strength alone.
But to some weaker martial artists, it was no less valuable than a supernatural weapon!
Unfortunately, it was extremely difficult to find a perfect location like that fellow had.
Moreover, in his previous life, the Violet Spirit Blood Tree had basically been all s.n.a.t.c.hed up by that fellow.
He had no way to even save some blood water.
In the end, this method had fallen by the wayside.
But now…
Chu Feng would even be the first person to attempt to do so.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng’s heart was on fire.
He could not wait to rush to the ruins of rubble.
From a distance away, a series of roars could be heard.
The tribe of the Demon Devouring Blood-Crown Beasts were the undisputed overlords of this region.
At this time of the day, they had just returned from their hunt for food.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the Demon Devouring Blood Crown Beasts lay lazily among the ruins of rubble.
They did not notice at all that a feeble human with bloodshot eyes was greedily sizing them up.
That expression was like that of a money-hungry landlord looking at unlimited amounts of gold.
