Chapter 507: Hundred-armed Giant Bloodline (Second update, requesting all)

The Crowned Flame Bird spat out a stream of flame, red with a hint of white, which landed on the corpse of Di Zhiyi.

Crackle, pop—

Even though Di Zhiyi's physical body was powerful, he was dead after all; especially since the Crowned Flame Bird's flames contained the terrifyingly powerful Southern Brightness Departure Fire, melting Di Zhiyi's corpse was naturally a trivial matter.

Li Zhangsheng watched quietly as Di Zhiyi's corpse "melted," his Mental Power constantly focused on the body, ready to strike immediately should he discover anything unusual.

Before long, more than half of Di Zhiyi's corpse had dissolved, when suddenly, from the feedback of his Mental Power, Li Zhangsheng sensed a powerful energy fluctuation.

"Stop!"

The Crowned Flame Bird hurriedly stopped spitting flames and simultaneously sucked all the flames at the scene back in; it could be Immune to Fire, so naturally, it would not suffer any harm.

After the flames were extinguished, Li Zhangsheng impatiently took out a silver-gray scale the size of an adult's palm from Di Zhiyi's split-open stomach.

This was a hexagonal scale, faintly emitting a strange aura of energy; from the feedback of his Mental Power, it was a type of gray energy.

"This couldn't be..."

As Li Zhangsheng muttered to himself, he took a wooden box out of his Space Ring, which also contained a silver-gray scale, though it was slightly more than a third larger than Di Zhiyi's scale.

Li Zhangsheng was naturally not stupid enough to let the black cat Trace to the Source, because this was yet another Time Dragon Scale!

The Time Dragon was not a product of this world, at least that particular Time Dragon was not, otherwise it would have already come over to kill.

"Could it be that these are scales from different Time Dragons?"

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself, though there was little hope; after all, for a Top-tier Divine Beast like the Time Dragon that could manipulate time, there was usually only one.

Unless the previous Time Dragon had fallen, it was almost impossible for a second one to be born.

Of course, this scale could also be from a Time Dragon that had already fallen, but Li Zhangsheng dared not test it for the time being; when it came to a freakish Divine Beast like the Time Dragon, being careful was never a mistake.

Taking a step back, even if this scale really did involve a fallen Time Dragon, it was far from something the current Li Zhangsheng could contend for; the Dragon Scale of the carcass alone might be enough to crush him to death.

Li Zhangsheng solemnly placed the second Time Dragon Scale into the wooden box; he had no memory of this Time Dragon Scale from the fragments of Di Zhiyi's memories, so naturally, he did not understand Di Zhiyi's intention in placing the Time Dragon Scale inside his head.

Li Zhangsheng thought of a possibility: the Time Dragon Scale naturally contained the power of time, and he guessed that when Di Zhiyi was nearing his limit, he had tried to swallow the Time Dragon Scale as a last-ditch effort.

Looking at the result now, it was naturally of no use at all; it might have even brought a backlash upon Di Zhiyi.

After putting away the Time Dragon Scale, the Crowned Flame Bird spat out flames once again.

Soon, Di Zhiyi's corpse was completely dissolved, leaving behind only a complete skeleton that was crystal clear like jade; this was the so-called Jade Bone.

The hardness of the Jade Bone was naturally far superior to ordinary bones, but it was still within the range of the flames' burning, meaning the speed of dissolution was just a bit slower.

Li Zhangsheng did not call a halt, because other than being harder than diamond, the Jade Bone had no use.

While the Crowned Flame Bird was burning the Jade Bone, Li Zhangsheng came before the destroyed Black Altar.

The Black Altar was composed of a large amount of precious materials, some of which came from the Abyss World.

To obtain these materials, Di Zhiyi had paid a considerable price.

Besides these materials, there were also several skeletons inside that had no flesh or blood.

Among them, the most conspicuous was the skeleton of a Giant with ten heads and thirty arms.

Judging from its size alone, this Giant skeleton was a full seventy or eighty meters long.

"Thirty-armed Giant!"

Looking at this skeleton, Li Zhangsheng gasped, because this was one of Di Zhiyi's two Saint Grade Spirit Pet, and also his trump card.

Like the Dark Night King's Flood Dragon, the Thirty-armed Giant possessed the Master Race, as well as the Vigorous Grade Hundred-armed Giant Bloodline.

The Hundred-armed Giant was a giant with 50 heads and 100 arms; it was an extremely powerful and ferocious monster.

In battle, a Hundred-armed Giant could throw 100 rocks as huge as mountains at once, and fifty heads could release beams of light together; it was practically a War Fortress, and few Divine Beasts dared to contend with it head-on.

"What a pity!"

Li Zhangsheng muttered that it was a pity; the Thirty-armed Giant's skeleton alone possessed such might, so it was hard to imagine its power when it was in battle.

Most importantly, the Thirty-armed Giant's skeleton had lost all its flesh and blood, and there was no knowing how much Spirit Essence could still be refined from this pile of bones.

Of Di Zhiyi's two Saint Grade Spirit Pet, besides the Thirty-armed Giant's skeleton, the other was a Departure Fire Red Flame Cat.

Like the Morning Light Cat, the Departure Fire Red Flame Cat also possessed a Concentrated Grade Cang Cat Bloodline.

Departure Fire Red Flame Cat: Fire Element, Medium Monarch species, small cat-type Spirit Beast, irritable and quick-tempered, extremely fast, fur has strong resistance, average strength, excels in long-range output.

What Li Zhangsheng valued was naturally the Concentrated Grade Cang Cat Bloodline; he had already collected half a jar of Cang Cat Spirit Essence, and with this Departure Fire Red Flame Cat's skeleton, he believed he was one step closer to filling a full jar.

In addition to these two Saint Grade Spirit Pet, there were four other Demon Beast skeletons of varying forms.

From the fragments of Di Zhiyi's memories, Li Zhangsheng naturally knew their identities; among them, the one he valued most was the corpse of a Red Dragon, because this was a corpse possessing a Concentrated Grade ancestral Red Dragon.

As for the other three Demon Beast skeletons, Spirit Essence could likewise be refined from them, but they were of little use to Li Zhangsheng.

Di Zhiyi naturally had more than just these Demon Pets, but in his nearly three hundred years of life, he had managed to outlive several of his main Demon Pets, including two Demon Beast.

The lifespan of a Demon Pet of the same rank did not mean it was higher than that of a Monster Tamer, after all, Monster Tamers were also evolving.

Looking at these skeletons, Li Zhangsheng could not help but feel troubled, because he could not even take away the Thirty-armed Giant's skeleton alone.

The Thirty-armed Giant was seventy or eighty meters tall, its bones were especially thick, and it had thirty arms and ten heads; in terms of volume, it was dozens of times larger than the round one.

Li Zhangsheng's largest Space Ring could probably only fit ten heads, and even if he gathered all his Space Rings, he could barely fit half of the Thirty-armed Giant's skeleton.

"Let's look at the harvest of Liu Xudong and the other first!"

Thinking this, Li Zhangsheng began to check the spoils of war from Liu Xudong and the other.

The spoils this time were quite numerous; there were more than twenty Demon Pet corpses alone, the more precious ones being the corpses of a Behemoth, a Six-headed Bird, and a Spirit-Devouring Rat.

Among them, the Spirit-Devouring Rat possessed a Concentrated Grade Heaven-Devouring Rat Bloodline.

These Demon Pets were all wearing Treasures, and most were Advanced Treasure.

Unfortunately, there was not a single Top-Grade Treasure.

With the help of his Demon Pets, Li Zhangsheng spent half an hour finally processing this batch of Demon Pet corpses and began to check the other spoils.

Besides two Space Rings, there was also a Mid-grade Monster Pet Bag and a broken Inner Armor; they all came from Liu Xudong.

"Eh, it won't open!"

Li Zhangsheng was impatient to check the two Space Rings, but unexpectedly, he could not open Liu Xudong's Space Ring.

This situation was not unheard of; only extremely precious Space Rings would have such a setting.

Li Zhangsheng searched through Di Zhiyi's memories carefully; as expected, this was indeed the Space Ring Di Zhiyi wore year-round, only it had been "gifted" to Liu Xudong in the end, and Liu Xudong had imprinted his own Soul Imprint upon it.

Aside from the owner, there were very few ways to open it.

However, after the owner dies, the Soul Imprint within the Space Ring will continuously fade as time passes; once it dissipates completely, the Space Ring can naturally be opened.

With some regret, Li Zhangsheng could only examine the Space Ring belonging to the Fourth Rank Heavenly Pride.

As the Heavenly Pride of the Langya Liu Clan second only to Liu Xudong, the space within this ring was naturally not small, totaling nearly two thousand cubic meters, and it was naturally piled with a dazzling array of items.

Among these items, Li Zhangsheng directly skipped over the Soul Crystals, Demon Cores, and various materials; in his eyes, these things were almost becoming mere numbers.

As for the Fourth Rank Heavenly Pride's Identity Token and miscellaneous items, Li Zhangsheng naturally would not keep them, directly letting the Crown Flame Bird burn them away.

The treasures that truly caught Li Zhangsheng's eye totaled only three items: one crystal and two Jade Bottles.

Among them, the mineral was a treasure from the Tiangang Guiyuanzhu.

This was a pitted crystal, about the size of a human head, with a trace of blood-colored patterns permeating the black.

Li Zhangsheng also discovered that this mineral possessed the ability to isolate Mental Power detection; his Mental Power could not get within three feet of this mineral.

"A material that isolates Mental Power? That shouldn't be, otherwise Di Zhiyi wouldn't have placed it inside the Tiangang Guiyuanzhu."

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself; the reason Di Zhiyi placed a large amount of treasure into the Tiangang Guiyuanzhu was entirely to dispel the suspicions of others and other factions, otherwise it would be truly unjustifiable.

Soon, Li Zhangsheng found information on this crystal through consulting books.

Blood Pattern Black Crystal: Heaven and Earth Essence; as long as it is added to a Treasure, it will grant that Treasure a certain percentage of Blood Sucking effect, as well as the ability to isolate Mental Power detection. Note: It must be used in melee combat and hit the target to exert the Blood Sucking effect.

The efficacy of the Blood Pattern Black Crystal is very unique, and this was the first time Li Zhangsheng had seen a material with a Blood Sucking ability; as long as one is equipped with a Treasure containing Blood Pattern Black Crystal, it is simply like adding wings to a tiger for melee-type Demon Pets.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng opened the first Jade Bottle.

Inside the Jade Bottle were ten golden Alchemical Pills; Li Zhangsheng poured one out and identified it carefully. He had read dozens of pill formulas left behind by the Pill King, and judging by the size, color, and scent, this pill was exactly the one recorded on one of those formulas.

Velvet Antler Dragon Tiger Pill: Intermediate Alchemical Pill, can quickly restore a Demon Pet's physical strength.

Pills for restoring physical strength and pills for healing injuries cannot be mentioned in the same breath; Demon Pets also get tired, especially during prolonged fierce battles, and this is when this type of pill comes in handy.

Li Zhangsheng also had pills for restoring physical strength, but their grade only reached Intermediate, and they could not be compared to the Velvet Antler Dragon Tiger Pill at all; they would likely come in handy in the future.

The second Jade Bottle stored some purple liquid, emitting little specks of purple light, as if they were stars dotting the firmament in the dead of night, only it was purple.

"Starlight Divine Water!"

Li Zhangsheng recognized the name and efficacy of the purple liquid at a glance; he had once obtained a bottle of Sunlight Divine Water, so he naturally remembered the characteristics of Moonlight Divine Water and Starlight Divine Water.

Starlight Divine Water: Devours and dissolves true spiritual consciousness!

If Li Zhangsheng had possessed Starlight Divine Water earlier, he only would have needed to splash Di Zhiyi's soul with it, and the subsequent events would not have happened.

Of course, hitting the target would be very difficult; after all, Di Zhiyi was not a fool.

"As long as I get another bottle of Moonlight Divine Water, I can create Three Lights Divine Water!"

Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and Starlight Divine Water are quite sinister, but if one combines the three into one, they can be synthesized into Three Lights Divine Water.

Three Lights Divine Water is honored as the number one healing holy medicine, possessing the heaven-defying efficacy of regrowing flesh on bones and bringing the dead back to life; it is rumored that it can even save top-tier plant-type Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that are on the verge of death.

After checking these gains, Li Zhangsheng then turned his gaze to the Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree and the young girl tied to the tree.

The Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree belongs to the top-tier Fire Element Spirit Root, and the Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruit it produces can significantly increase the probability of a Fire Element Lord-level Demon Pet breaking through to the Demon King level.

Of course, its growth cycle is very long.

The Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree can only produce one fruit at a time, and from the birth of this fruit to its full maturity, it takes a full thirty years.

After the Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruit matures, it will hang on the tree indefinitely; even if it is not picked for a long time, phenomena like falling, withering, or disappearing will not occur.

This is also the reason why there are five Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruits on this Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree.

The reason Di Zhiyi had not picked them all along was mainly to wait until after the Possession to use them.

With these five Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruits, if luck is good, one could cultivate three or four Demon King-level Demon Pets. Added to Di Zhiyi's accumulation and experience, he was fully confident in becoming a King before the age of thirty.

Li Zhangsheng used his Mental Power to activate the token, and immediately a ray of light fell upon the Restriction wrapping the Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree.

The Restriction flickered violently a few times, turning from an open state to a closed one.

"Little one, we meet again!" Li Zhangsheng walked toward the young girl tied to the tree with a smile.

This young girl emitted intense energy fluctuations, comparable to the level of a Heaven and Earth Rare Treasure-grade item; Li Zhangsheng naturally could not forget her.

Judging from the medicinal fragrance she emitted, the young girl was very likely transformed from some kind of precious Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

"You, don't come over here!"

As soon as the young girl saw Li Zhangsheng, her whole body began to tremble, revealing a Pitiful expression.

The first time the two met, she was almost caught by Li Zhangsheng, which made her unable to help but be afraid.

The young girl struggled hard, but she could not break free from the restraints of the rope at all, and her charming big eyes were filled with tears in her anxiety.

Aside from her innate Earth Walking Technique, the young girl could only be described as having no strength to truss a chicken; she simply had no other means.
