Chapter 1790: Soothing Spirit Liquid! There's a Sandbag to Beat Up!

"Hmm."

Elise gave a slight nod, a trace of lingering palpitation still in the depths of her violet eyes:

"His strength, speed, lightning might.

All completely surpass the scope of the Undying stage, and he also possesses a peak supreme treasure.

So, for exploring a high-level demon nest, he is the most suitable candidate."

"I see." Miranda realized.

But a teasing smile immediately surfaced on her face, and she lightly nudged Elise with her elbow:

"My Young Lady Elise, this is the first time you've been defeated by a peer, isn't it?

How is it? Aside from wanting to recruit him, isn't there a bit of a different feeling in your heart?

For instance, feeling he's especially charming? Especially strong and reliable?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Elise's beautiful eyes widened, "I only value his strength!"

"Alright alright, if you don't want to say it then don't say it."

Miranda giggled and threw up her hands in surrender, but the fire of gossip in her eyes didn't diminish in the slightest.

It was the first time she had ever seen Elise show this kind of expression because of a male demon; it was truly too interesting.

Having decided to invite Xue Yuan, Elise soon left the small building.

As for where to go find Xue Yuan, that was also very simple.

The other party had just swindled four million Abyss Demon Stones from her; right now he was definitely in the Resource Tower exchanging for things.

Elise's graceful figure soon landed in front of the Resource Tower.

This Resource Tower was extremely magnificent, with many floors.

And with a Ruler standing guard, she couldn't use divine sense to probe; she could only stand quietly outside and wait.

"It's Lord Elise!"

"Tsk, this figure is too top-tier! If she could seduce me once, dying would be worth it!"

"Dream on, that's the Blood Demon Palace's pride, and someone you can covet?"

"Look at Elise like this, she's waiting for a demon?"

"Seems like it, don't know who she's waiting for."

"..."

Demons are born with violent dispositions; they basically don't conceal their emotions much.

Plus with a Supreme Ruler guarding the rest area, Undying-stage beings can't attack each other.

So, the moment Elise appeared.

She immediately attracted the gazes of the demons entering and leaving the Resource Tower.

Their gazes, one after another, stared fixedly at her proud curves.

Eyes burning so hot they almost seemed to spout fire.

"This bunch of damn bastards!"

Elise's gaze was cold, her peerlessly beautiful face carrying undisguised disgust.

Every male demon looking at her was like looking at an object, filled with naked desire.

If this were in the Blood Demon Palace, these demons dared to take one more look.

They would have long since been decapitated!

Too bad it's in the rest area; she can't easily make a move.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of Xue Yuan.

That guy also looked, his gaze even more direct.

But in her heart there wasn't much aversion; instead she felt he looked quite openly?

"What the hell, why would I have this kind of emotion?"

Elise's willow brows furrowed slightly.

She quickly swept that absurd thought clean from her mind.

When Elise arrived.

Xu Jingming was still strolling in the Resource Tower's spacious and luxurious hall.

His gaze swept over the exchange list continuously scrolling on the light screen.

Rare mineral materials, high-grade pills, ancient secret scrolls, powerful supreme treasures......

A dazzling array, making one's eyes swim.

"There are indeed quite a few good things."

He nodded inwardly, but then frowned slightly, "Pity, the ones truly of great use to me are all priced outrageously."

The upper volume of the 'True Demon Canon' needing 1 billion demon stones is not even worth mentioning.

Various other treasures that can significantly boost strength or assist cultivation.

Each casually costs several million, tens of millions of demon stones.

While he has on hand, counting everything, plus the four million just swindled, it's still far from enough.

"For me, the only useful one is probably just this."

Xu Jingming's gaze stopped on a line of small print on the list.

【Soothing Spirit Liquid】: Special potion, can greatly alleviate the erosion of the Abyss aura on the mind, extending stay time within the Abyss.

Effect: After use, can continuously stay for approximately 60 stellar days (effects can stack, but the more used the worse the effect).

Price: 100,000 Abyssal Demon Stones per unit.

"The side effect of my Purple Nightmare Demon Body is that I can only stay in the Abyss for 20 days.

If I had this calming elixir, I could actually stay for over 40 days straight."

Xu Jingming nodded slightly.

This calming elixir may not offer good value for other demons.

After all, 100,000 demon stones is no small sum.

Most immortals of the Eternal Life stage, after struggling and fighting for a month, might not even manage to save this much.

Rather than buying potions, it's better to save up and exchange for more tangible resources.

But he is different!

Every extra day he stays allows him to harvest a large amount of qi points and demon stones.

This investment of 100,000 demon stones will absolutely yield rich returns!

He no longer hesitated; with a thought, he placed the order directly through his wristband.

"Esteemed guest, this is your purchased item. Please check and accept."

Soon, a demon attendant in uniform respectfully approached, holding a silver metal box.

Xu Jingming opened the box; inside, ten transparent crystal tubes, each as thick as a finger, were neatly arranged.

Inside the tubes, a pale blue clear liquid swayed, emitting a cool and tranquil aura.

"This single transaction just sent out a million demon stones."

He put away the metal box, silently sighing, "Abyssal demon stones are still not enough."

Killing other demons does indeed allow one to plunder their demon stones.

But perhaps because his first entry into the Abyss was too brief.

The immortal-stage demons he killed had pitifully little stored on them.

"But after this next entry, they should have accumulated quite a bit, right?"

In Xu Jingming's purple-red pupils, Lei Guang flickered, a hint of coldness passing through.

Those not of our kind must have different hearts.

Against these demon clans, he will feel no psychological burden when striking.

Moreover, he can accumulate even more qi points.

While calculating, Xu Jingming left the Resource Tower.

As soon as he stepped out, a familiar and clear cold voice came from ahead:

"Blood Abyss."

Xu Jingming looked over, only to see Ilyas standing not far away.

The other party seemed to have already been here for a while.

Her tall, full figure drew the gazes of many passing demons.

"Ilyas?"

Seeing Ilyas arrive, Xu Jingming frowned, instinctively saying:

"Regretting now is useless; it's cash on delivery.

I've already used up the demon stones—don't even think about getting them back."

"You!"

Ilyas was choked by his thief-like tone.

A hint of annoyance appeared on her exquisite face, her full chest rising and falling violently due to the breath fluctuation.

She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed her emotions, and said coldly:

"I'm not here to take back the demon stones."

"Oh? Then why are you looking for me?" Xu Jingming raised an eyebrow.

"I want to invite you to a sparring match with me." Ilyas spoke.

The matter of the high-level demon nest is not suitable to be discussed here.

Moreover, she is indeed interested in Xu Jingming's strength.

"Sparring?"

Xu Jingming instantly lost interest, waving his hand:

"No interest; what's the point of fighting a defeated subordinate?"

"You!"

Ilyas clenched her silver teeth; this guy's words are really infuriating!

She took another deep breath, her full curves rising and falling with it, forcing herself to say:

"Not letting you fight for nothing—one sparring match, fifty thousand demon stones."

"Deal!"

Xu Jingming's eyes lit up instantly.

Another sandbag to beat, and still earn demon stones.

Only a fool would refuse.

Ilyas: "..."

She watched Xu Jingming's smile suddenly bloom, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

How, in this guy's eyes, am I, the heavenly pride of the Blood Demon Palace, the object of admiration for countless demons,

still not as attractive as fifty thousand demon stones?
