Lu Li went back to the tavern in the Heaven Prison City. Hunchback Tian and Patriarch Lu had already come back. Lu Li didn't explain much to Patriarch Lu. He just said that he went to the Bai Emperor Mountain and the trouble of the Bai Family was solved.
Seeing that Lu Li was not in the mood to talk, Patriarch Lu didn't dare to ask more questions. Watching Lu Li go back to his room, Patriarch Lu found it harder and harder to understand Lu Li.
The poor young man who used to carry coffins for the Liu Family had become the patron of the Liu Family.
He was full of mysteries. He dared to challenge a young lady of the Bai Family at the auction house. Now, he could go in and out of the Bai Emperor Mountain and settle the scores with the Bai Family at will.
He could summon clouds and rain with a flip of his hand.
The Guest Warrior of the Liu Family had become the patron and master of the Liu Family. Patriarch Lu was not unhappy about this. Instead, he hoped that Lu Li could grow faster.
This young man had become the hope for the revival of the Liu Family. Patriarch Lu was convinced of this.
Lu Li didn't cultivate after he went back to his room. He sat there in a daze, trying to figure something out.
After a while, he realized that the more he tried, the more confused he became. Even he himself was confused.
After sitting there for an hour, Lu Li washed his face. He decided not to think about it anymore. As he said, as long as he was alive, nothing else mattered.
He had put the matter of the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race out of his mind. He didn't care even if the two races were up to something.
He didn't care what Madam Yan thought. What he had to do now was to make himself stronger and more powerful.
He took out the transparent jade bottle and circulated his Xuan Energy around it. The drop of Origin Blood Essence started to move around. A surge of powerful qi and blood enveloped the room.
The blood in Lu Li's body was tumbling. His eyes were glaring in silver light. The silver dragon mark on his back was glowing as well. Both his body and soul were trembling.
"This blood …"
Lu Li murmured. He resisted the urge to consume the blood immediately and retracted his Xuan Energy.
The blood in the jade bottle stopped moving and Lu Li's body calmed down.
He stared at the jade bottle for a while. Many thoughts flashed through his mind.
There was no doubt that the blood would be of great help to him.
But he didn't dare to consume it rashly.
What if this blood was too tyrannical and caused his body to explode? What if this blood was of the fire attribute and he was burned to death?
"Let's go back and look for information on the various Origin Blood Essences and the refining methods."
Lu Li put the Origin Blood Essence into his Interspatial Ring, closed his eyes and started to cultivate.
Since he had promised Madam Yan that he would go to the Tomb of Dragon King in a month, he had to keep his word.
He also desired to enter such a treasured land and obtain the inheritance of the Dragon Emperor. At the very least, he wanted to obtain some treasures.
For this treasure hunt in the Tomb of the Dragon King, all the geniuses and geniuses of the big families of the Northern Desert would come out. How many powerful warriors would there be?
Lu Li did not know. He only knew that it was dangerous this time. If he was not careful, the Tomb of Dragon King would be his burial ground.
The geniuses of all the clans were mobilized, including the Yu Family.
Lord Yu hated him to the bone. If he knew that Ye Futian had entered, he would have ordered the geniuses of the Yu Family to find a chance to kill Ye Futian.
Bai Xiashuang was at the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm with Seventh-rank Bloodline.
The girl with the jade flute he met at the Frigid Cloud Mountain also had Seventh-rank Bloodline. She must have reached the Soul Pond Realm.
Most of the geniuses entering the Tomb of Dragon King this time would be at the Soul Pond Realm. It would be too easy for Lu Li, who was only at the later stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, to be killed.
If he didn't think of a way to become stronger, it wouldn't bode well for him.
Weapons!
First of all, he must have a good weapon. His Mighty Heaven Halberd was destroyed by Dumby. Without a suitable weapon, his fighting capacity would be greatly reduced.
Secondly, Xuan Skills. He had to find a way to get one or two powerful Xuan Skills in order to increase his fighting capacity.
As for the Realm, he could forget about it. It would take him at least 10 years to cultivate from the later stage of the Spirit Sea Realm to the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm without the Cyan Phoenix Pellet. Even with the Cyan Phoenix Pellet, it would still take him about two or three months.
Even if he could reach the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm, it would not be easy to reach the Soul Pond Realm. Therefore, it was impossible to reach the Soul Pond Realm in a short time.
This drop of Origin Blood Essence might be able to improve his fighting capacity. The thing was, Lu Li dared not to consume it without knowing its property. This was a double-edged sword. He might get himself killed.
Having made up his mind, Lu Li took a Cyan Phoenix Pellet and continued his cultivation.
Lu Li didn't go back after dawn. He went to the Xuan Artifact Cabinet with Hunchback Tian and Patriarch Lu.
The Xuan Artifact Cabinet, the temple and the Heaven Punishing Auction House were all external forces. They had branches on all the Fourth-rank islands, including the Heaven Prison City.
The one who received Lu Li was a middle-aged Chief Steward with the surname of Yang. Lu Li casually glanced over the Xuan Artifacts placed in the hall and asked Chief Steward Yang to go to a side chamber for a talk.
"I once bought a Mighty Heaven Halberd from your branch at the God-down City. Too bad it was destroyed. Do you have a similar weapon here?"
Lu Li went straight to the point and stated his needs. Chief Steward Yang asked Lu Li to wait for a moment.
He went out to do some research and came back in. "We do have a heavy weapon like this. It is a heavy sword. Someone, bring it here."
Two attendants came in with a huge heavy sword. The sword was about the same length as the Mighty Heaven Halberd. It was black all over, giving off a cold glare. It was a very domineering weapon.
Lu Li picked it up. He found the sword was lighter than the Mighty Heaven Halberd, but it still weighed more than 11,000 pounds. He swung it several times but found it was not easy.
At first, he used a saber, then a halberd. If he were to change to a sword now, it would take him a long time to get used to it.
Lu Li thought about it and said, "Chief Steward Yang, can you customize a weapon like the Mighty Heaven Halberd for me?
The price is negotiable. "
"Customize?
No problem. But it may take longer. "
Chief Steward Yang did some calculations and said, "The Mighty Heaven Halberd is of the Third Rank of the Earth Grade. If you want it customized, it will take you at least a month."
"A month?"
The timing was just right. Lu Li thought of something and asked, "You can customize weapons of higher ranks?"
"As long as you have Xuan Crystals, you can customize any Xuan Artifact of the Heaven Grade."
Chief Steward Yang said with pride, "We at the Xuan Artifact Cabinet can even make Xuan Artifacts of the Ninth Rank of the Heaven Grade. More than 30 of the top 100 powerful warriors on the Northern Desert Warlord List use Xuan Artifacts customized by us."
"Impressive!"
Lu Li had to admire this. He asked tentatively, "What is the price for customized Xuan Artifact of the Heaven Grade?"
Chief Steward Yang said with a smile, "The lowest Xuan Artifact of the Heaven Grade will cost at least three million Xuan Crystals. If you have special requirements or you want it to be of a higher rank, the price will be negotiated."
"I can't afford it …"
Lu Li gave up on the idea. The auction house only sold it for 600,000 Xuan Crystals. The Heaven Serpent Fruit was still mortgaged at the auction house. Lu Li asked about the price of customized Xuan Artifacts of the Earth Grade.
In the end, Lu Li spent 200,000 Xuan Crystals to customize a Xuan Artifact of the Sixth Rank of the Earth Grade. It was similar to the Mighty Heaven Halberd, but it was several tens of thousands of pounds heavier. Not only did it increase speed, it also increased strength.
It was only three ranks higher, but Lu Li was in a hurry so the price was much higher. 300,000 Xuan Crystals was nothing to Lu Li so he paid the Xuan Artifact Cabinet directly.
"Strength …"
Walking out of the Xuan Artifact Cabinet, Lu Li thought about the Blood Refinement Pellet again. Should he buy some pellets that could increase strength to make his physical strength stronger?
Would there be side effects if he just kept on increasing his physical strength?
He looked at Hunchback Tian and asked. Hunchback Tian's advice made Lu Li give up on increasing his physical strength.
The human body was a wonderful thing. If one was not of a special race, it was better not to disturb the balance of the body on purpose, not to mention forcibly increasing strength with pellets.
"Let's go to the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce."
