Chapter 998

"But no matter how we operated, the Indestructible Bone did not waver in the slightest, and we couldn't even scrape off a single bit of bone ash."

"We even used special tools made from minerals that fell off the Amber King sent by the company. Under high-intensity development, the tools also shattered."

"The Indestructible Bone remained unmoved..."

Hearing this, everyone gasped in unison, but then felt mixed joy and worry.

Good news: fierce beast bones are excessively hard and have many uses after development.

Bad news...

They can't be developed at all...

908. Diamond: No One Told Me Shushan Also Has Demonic Cultivators

Hua fell silent for a moment and looked at Lisa.

"Miss Lisa, I wonder how the martial artists in your cultivation world develop fierce beasts?"

"Two ways..."

Lisa raised her index finger and said with a smile:

"Using the 'Butcher Ding's Art of Dissecting a Cow' exercised to the extreme to take out the fierce beast meat and essence blood, while the bones are temporarily left undeveloped."

"This is also the method used by most martial artists. After all, fierce beast bones are truly hard. Although they are excellent materials once developed,"

"if they can't be developed, naturally, the priority is to preserve the flesh and blood."

"Secondly, purchase special tools developed by the cultivation world to solve fierce beast bones. Although the price is not cheap, the materials used are various spirit minerals."

"These tools themselves can also be considered powerful weapons."

"To solve the bones of a late-stage Essence Refining and Qi Transforming fierce beast, you need tools of the fifth grade or higher."

"One bone-breaking knife, one bone-piercing chisel, and one bone-crushing hammer each."

"Each tool of the fifth grade or higher is worth 100,000 spirit coins. The good news is that you can exchange fierce beast resources or some particularly important resources from your world for spirit coins."

"As for how much can be exchanged, it depends on its value. At the beginning of each month, the Shushan Outer Sect Deacon will go to the Shushan City City Lord's Mansion to open spirit coin exchange."

"At that time, you can go over and take a look."

"At that time, many martial artists will also sell some important materials there, such as techniques they have studied, resources found during exploration, fierce beast essence blood they don't need, etc."

"It can also be considered a monthly trading time for martial artists."

"In addition, the martial artist groups behind the major cultivation factions might also release some good things."

"Of course, the specific choice depends on yourselves. I am just making a suggestion."

"For everyone present, relatively speaking, what should be more important is to join Shushan and cultivate the Dao."

"Martial Dao is not something you should rack your brains to think about."

"Do not put the cart before the horse."

Hua nodded thoughtfully and said seriously:

"Thank you, Miss Lisa, for your guidance. We will remember it."

"In general, these are the matters."

Lisa smiled, turned around, and paced into the void, her figure gradually disappearing as the karma fire turned into lotus flowers.

"I wish you all your heart's desire..."

As Lisa left, everyone felt the pressure in their hearts decrease significantly.

Diamond wiped cold sweat and looked at Herta and Ruan Mei helplessly.

"Director Herta, Director Ruan Mei, why did a demonic cultivator appear out of nowhere... I haven't heard of this intelligence."

Herta pondered for a moment and shook her head.

"This matter can be considered our oversight. We heard news of demonic cultivators in the Shushan world before."

"But most people were tight-lipped about it. When we asked Mr. Otto and the others, they didn't pay much attention to it."

"They just mentioned that after obtaining extreme cultivation speed and extremely terrifying enemy-confronting means and abilities, correspondingly, demonic cultivators will also bear the due price."

"This price is aimed at the heart..."

"Thinking about it now, it probably means that after obtaining corresponding abilities, the cultivation speed of demonic cultivators far exceeds that of ordinary cultivators."

"But if they cannot control their own desires and power, they will be swallowed by power and become puppets of power."

"Of course, if substituted into Shushan, the situation might be more complicated."

"Shushan, as the leader of the righteous path, does not mind its disciples practicing demonic arts. After all, they believe in mastering power rather than being mastered by power."

"But if a disciple falls into the demonic path one day... I presume they will be hunted down by Shushan as never before."

"Practicing demonic arts is still very dangerous..." ===== CHAPTER 999 =====

909. Hua: Open your arms and embrace the new era

"In short, I actually feel that this matter of demonic cultivation has nothing to do with us, after all, none of us have joined Shushan yet."

"The most urgent task is that we only need to discuss two choices."

"First, find a way to exchange for tools that can split the bones of fierce beasts; if we cannot exchange for them for the time being, then don't consider this matter."

Herta pondered for a moment and continued:

"If we cannot split the bones of fierce beasts for the time being, then let's divide the meat of the fierce beasts first; everyone has many other things to do, there is no need to keep wasting time on this."

"Second..."

"The Shushan Mountain Opening Ceremony in half a month is the most important thing, okay? Don't put the cart before the horse."

These words made those who had just been startled by Lisa's self-exposure as a demonic cultivator sober up.

To be honest, what Lisa is like really has nothing to do with them; who knows, when they enter Shushan, they might also become demonic cultivators.

And the foundation of all this is to join Shushan first.

Thinking this through, everyone didn't stay long.

They just asked Hua to help keep the previously decided fierce beast meat, and they were going back to mobilize the relics of Abundance and prepare the containers by the way.

The people from the IPC had more ideas; after today, minerals like warm jade would definitely skyrocket in price, and they were guaranteed minerals that would never lack buyers.

After all, the mainstream of the Star Rail universe in the future would presumably still be martial artists.

Cultivators would not stay in the Star Rail universe either.

But after thinking about it, even a madman like Diamond wouldn't dare to say he could monopolize warm jade.

Although the IPC is large, it cannot withstand the siege of all the top forces in the entire universe.

Warm jade involves the transportation and storage of fierce beasts; if the IPC were to be strangled by this...

Who knows what day the IPC would be beaten to death by a group.

However...

If the major top forces unite to control warm jade, such a thing still has a high success rate.

This matter is still worth pursuing; we can talk to people from other forces later...

Hua and the others took the easy way out; after reorganizing the army and checking the casualties, they led the team back to the conference room.

Not long after sitting down, Hua beckoned to the Cloud Knights not far away.

"Go to the Shackling Prison and bring those two guests over; also, bring the people from the Stellaron Hunters over as well."

"Yes, Marshal!"

After the Cloud Knights left, Hua looked at everyone and said softly:

"The core of the previous meeting's agenda is that we must work together to let our Xianzhou possess a real world of our own as soon as possible........"

"In the future, wanting the Xianzhou to traverse the heavens and possess a world truly in our own hands is more important than anything else."

"Regarding this matter, I originally wanted everyone to come up with a detailed plan, but now plans cannot keep up with changes."

"The matter of fierce beasts and the recovery of spiritual energy is already imminent; we must put this matter before everything else."

"I hope everyone can propose a foolproof plan as soon as possible, otherwise, as the recovery of spiritual energy intensifies, the Xianzhou may have to face no small turmoil."

"In addition, I hope everyone can view this matter objectively; although fierce beasts are very terrifying, that fierce beast just now caused our tens of thousands of Cloud Knights to suffer heavy losses."

"But at the same time, everyone should also see how many Cloud Knights have become very powerful under the baptism of the fierce beast's blood."

"Here, I will first set a tone: the recovery of spiritual energy and the arrival of fierce beasts are things that cannot be stopped, nor should they be stopped."

"What we need is to make the Xianzhou transition smoothly as much as possible while opening our arms to embrace the new era."

910. Blade: Cannot deify Bai Yan!

As soon as the words fell, the Cloud Knights brought Jingliu and the others in.
