Chapter 240: Summoning Dankalabi

~10 min read 1,878 words

Ye Bai injected his spiritual power directly into the route guide, and a high-definition map appeared in Ye Bai's mind.

As long as Ye Bai told the route guide where he wanted to go, an arrow appeared before his eyes.

He just needed to follow the arrow forward.

The arrow led Ye Bai to the Exotic Beast Trading Market in the Guishi.

The people here were all wearing various ghost masks.

He even saw a woman dressed in a Qing Dynasty zombie outfit setting up a stall there.

A yellow talisman was stuck to her head, and rows of coffins were laid out on the ground.

These coffins were large and small, new and old; some were luxuriously decorated, while others were extremely ordinary.

Ye Bai was actually quite curious about what this person was selling.

However, even from far away, he could feel a chill that made his skin crawl.

So Ye Bai did not dare to get close, but that woman seemed to notice Ye Bai's gaze and gave him a meaningful look.

The Exotic Beast Market was quite large, and the items sold at each stall were different.

Some sold live materials from Exotic Beasts, such as various eyeballs.

Others sold Exotic Beast meat.

The living Exotic Beasts were locked in iron cages, while the dead ones were gutted and sliced open; the meat was sold by the catty, though Exotic Beast blood was very cheap.

This actually allowed Ye Bai to discover a hidden business opportunity.

After patrolling the area, Ye Bai finally saw a one-legged cyan bird.

Wisps of flame were emerging from the Exotic Beast's mouth.

Seeing Ye Bai's gaze fall upon this Exotic Beast, the stall owner said in a hoarse voice, "This Exotic Beast costs one thousand Ming Silver, no bargaining."

Ye Bai had gone to the silver vault before coming, so he knew that one ghost copper coin was equal to one Yan Kingdom Coin, meaning one thousand Ming Silver was equivalent to one million Yan Kingdom Coins; yet this was merely a Tier 3 Exotic Beast, and the owner dared to ask for such an exorbitant price.

Did they think Ye Bai was a fool who knew nothing?

He picked and chose for several rounds before finally selecting a pure, flawless macaw as a gift to offer to Dankalabi.

Afterward, Ye Bai set off for the Laifu Inn.

He spent one Ming Silver to rent a superior room.

"Guest, every room here is equipped with a Barrier."

"You are very safe here; no one will pry into your business."

After the paper person said this eerily, it closed the door.

"Paper Puppet."

Ye Bai said to the air.

"I am here."

The Paper Puppet floated eerily out from Ye Bai's embrace.

Ever since Jiang Dashi chose Ye Bai as his successor, the Paper Puppet had spent part of its time following Ye Bai.

Sometimes, when the Paper Puppet was not around, it would use the Paper-cutting Technique to craft a few paper people to protect Ye Bai.

"Paper Puppet, help me check if the Barrier is reliable; I am going to summon the Sixty-Ninth Pillar Demon God Dankalabi in a moment."

Ye Bai said with a solemn expression.

The Paper Puppet split into several Clones; the Clones collided with the Barrier in the room and finally merged into one.

"This Barrier had several loopholes, which I have already mended."

"Ye Bai, you can rest assured; there will be no problems with the Barrier."

Ye Bai nodded.

His gaze fell upon the round table placed in the middle of the room.

The table was two meters in diameter, making it perfectly suitable for drawing a Magic Array.

Ye Bai took out a talisman brush and a small jar of high-grade Exotic Beast blood.

He moved the items on the table aside, revealing the smooth surface.

"It begins."

"Paper Puppet, guard me later."

After Dankalabi's Clone is summoned, it is generally only Tier 6 after being suppressed by the Crystal Wall of Blue Star.

And since the Paper Puppet is an Exotic Beast above Tier 6, it can naturally suppress Dankalabi.

Ye Bai used the talisman brush, soaked it in the high-grade Exotic Beast blood, and drew a Magic Array on the tabletop.

Dankalabi's Summoning Array consisted of a pentagram with a circle at each of the five points, with a large circle drawn around the outside.

After drawing the Magic Array, Ye Bai placed five gemstones of different attributes at the five points.

After finishing all this, Ye Bai took out two candles.

These candles were not simple either; it was said that they were rich in the power of faith, which ensured that the summoning ritual could proceed smoothly.

Ye Bai lit the candles, and the two candles emitted wisps of faint blue smoke.

He turned off the lights in the room, put on a black robe, and donned a mask.

The burning candles distorted the light and shadows, reflecting Ye Bai's tense figure.

He stood before the Magic Array and began to chant the obscure and difficult summoning incantation.

The runes on the Magic Array began to emit a brilliant, eerie blue light, as if an ancient power were awakening.

A white gas suddenly emerged in the air, intertwining with the smoke from the candles to form a hazy mist.

As the ritual progressed, the light on the round altar grew increasingly intense, almost piercing through all the darkness.

The five attribute gemstones vanished at a speed visible to the naked eye, and ripples appeared in the air, as if something were trying to break through.

Cracks appeared on the table, as if even the table could not withstand this power.

As the space shook continuously, cracks like a spiderweb appeared, and a huge rift slowly opened, from which a white mist rose.

In the mist, a tall figure gradually condensed into shape.

A Demon God appeared, shaped like a pentagram, with Black Flame erupting from its entire body.

Each of its five corners had a terrifying eye, emitting a crimson light, as if it were a ball of flame that would never extinguish. Its appearance made the entire room tremble; at this moment, the Paper Puppet took action, and it stabilized the Barrier of the entire room.

"Little one, are you the one calling for the great Dankalabi?"

Ye Bai put on a look of panic, and he knelt on one knee on the ground.

He then released the snow-white macaw.

As soon as this poor parrot came out of the Beast Card, it crawled on the ground, trembling.

It could feel a noble monarch descending before it.

Dankalabi examined the macaw's feathers with an excited expression.

"Pure white feathers symbolize holiness."

"A golden ratio physique, and those bright, expressive eyes."

"This Exotic Beast is quite good; is this what you want to sacrifice to me?"

"Its Soul is very pure."

Dankalabi felt extremely happy at this moment; after so many years, someone had finally matched its taste.

Especially since Ye Bai had also gifted it five flawless attribute crystal cores, adding to its collection.

Today is a good day.

Dankalabi found Ye Bai very pleasing to the eye.

"Come, state your request for summoning me."

Dankalabi radiated a terrifying aura.

The Paper Puppet retracted its own aura, not wishing to overshadow the guest.

At this time, Ye Bai released the Blood Pool.

"I beg Lord Dankalabi Demon God to save my life."

"I accidentally killed the Blood Saint Child and obtained the inheritance of the Blood Saint Child."

"I am currently being hunted, and I hope Lord Dankalabi Demon God can strip the inheritance of the Blood Saint Child from the Blood Pool."

Ye Bai gritted his teeth and said.

Dankalabi looked deeply at Ye Bai: "Are you sure?"

"I can bestow upon you ten thousand taels of gold and a lifetime of countless wealth."

"You could completely use this money to lie flat, as long as you find a place the Resurrection Society cannot find."

Dankalabi said leisurely.

"Lord Demon God, I hope you can help me strip the inheritance of the Blood Saint Child; that is my only request."

Dankalabi saw that Ye Bai truly had no other intentions.

So it opened its mouth and spat out a perfectly Cut crystal.

"Haha, what a coincidence; I have an irreconcilable hatred for the Blood Saint Child. You killing the Blood Saint Child counts as doing me a favor."

"I once said that whoever kills the Blood Saint Child, I will reward them with a Divine Power Crystal."

"Rest assured, I am a chaotic neutral Demon God; as long as I am pleased, you will receive a reward."

"I will not tamper with the Divine Power Crystal, so just accept it with peace of mind."

"As for the inheritance of the Blood Saint Child, in return for the generous sacrifice you offered me, I will do you this favor."

"Now take out a fifth-tier crystal core, and I will extract the inheritance of the Blood Saint Child and place it onto the crystal core."

Dankalabi's words made Ye Bai feel slightly relieved.

Dankalabi chanted an incantation above the Blood Pool, and wisps of blood-red airflow were extracted from the Blood Pool and merged into the crystal core Ye Bai had prepared.

The originally crystal-clear crystal core turned red as the wisps of blood-red airflow poured in.

Finally, it turned into a vermilion gemstone, emitting an enchanting light in the darkness.

Seeing that the inheritance had been successfully extracted, Ye Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haha, I took the opportunity to copy this inheritance; there is indeed quite a bit of good content."

Dankalabi laughed and submerged a ball of light into the center of Ye Bai's brow.

A massive amount of knowledge rushed into Ye Bai's brain like a tide, wave after wave.

Ye Bai only felt an abnormal stinging pain in his brain.

He clutched his head tightly, trying his best not to make a sound.

"Not bad, a resilient human."

"I like all kinds of noble gemstones and rare, exotic birds."

"It just so happens that my collection lacks this kind of bird Exotic Beast, so I will help you extract the inheritance."

"This Divine Power Crystal is a gift for you."

"After losing this crystal, my Clone will completely dissipate."

Dankalabi's body gradually became transparent, and it turned into light and departed.

Phew, I didn't expect Dankalabi to be so generous.

However, Ye Bai discovered that the Paper Puppet seemed to have an instinctive craving for the Divine Power Crystal in his hand.

"Paper Puppet, is this thing useful to you?"

"If it is useful, then you take it."

"However, you need to check if Dankalabi has left any divine sense within this Divine Power Crystal."

"To prevent Dankalabi from using your body to descend upon Blue Star."

Ye Bai exhorted the paper puppet; if Dankalabi had truly tampered with it, Ye Bai would have nowhere to cry even if he wanted to.

"Having stripped away the inheritance, a major matter has finally been settled."

"Next, I must make a trip to the Dark Auction House to sell the Blood Saint's inheritance for a good price."
