Wu Shattered Star River

For the next two days, Jiang Han and Madam Yu lived comfortably inside.

Madam Yu was all talk and didn't actually do anything improper.

She also gave Jiang Han a spatial ring containing a pool of Red Flame Golden Lion beast blood, which was the reward she had promised.

Jiang Han had nothing to do in the room, so he thought about it and decided to refine the Red Flame Golden Lion beast blood first. As for the Red Flood Dragon's essence blood, he planned to refine it slowly later.

He took out the spatial ring and sensed it. Instead of absorbing all of it directly, he took out a small portion and slowly absorbed it.

As soon as the essence blood entered his body, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron immediately began to operate, absorbing all of the essence blood.

Jiang Han stopped to see if the Heavenly Beast Cauldron would convert it into energy.

Last time, he had obtained tens of thousands of drops of Red Flame Golden Lion beast essence blood, which were all absorbed by the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit. This time, he wasn't so foolish and only refined a small portion.

"Not bad!"

After waiting for a moment, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron actually produced pure white energy, and Jiang Han's physical body began to strengthen rapidly. A look of joy appeared on his face.

It seemed that the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit had absorbed enough last time, so it didn't touch this essence blood?

He continued to release essence blood to refine, and the Heavenly Beast Cauldron quickly absorbed it, continuously converting it into white energy, and Jiang Han's physical body continued to strengthen.

After refining thirty percent of it, Jiang Han confirmed that the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit was not secretly absorbing his Red Flame Golden Lion beast essence blood. He was completely relieved and began to speed up.

It took him half a day to refine all the essence blood in the pool, and the Heavenly Beast Cauldron continuously converted it into energy.

"So strong!"

Jiang Han felt his physical body continuously becoming stronger, and his heart became excited.

After waiting another three hours, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron stopped operating. He sensed his physical body and felt that it had strengthened at least a dozen times.

He didn't know exactly how much it had strengthened, but he felt that it should be difficult for even an Immortal Realm expert to kill him now? He just didn't know if he could withstand the attack of a Celestial Immortal?

He took out another spatial ring containing over ten thousand drops of Red Flood Dragon essence blood. Jiang Han was hesitating whether to refine it now.

This Red Flood Dragon was a third-grade peak-level immortal beast. Could his physical body withstand its essence blood?

"Let's try!"

After waiting for a moment, Jiang Han couldn't help but give it a try. He took out a drop of essence blood.

"Ugh…"

As soon as the essence blood came out, a fierce aura emanated from within. Jiang Han's eyes immediately turned red, and the blood in his body began to boil.

A strong baleful aura enveloped him, affecting his temperament.

"Huhu!"

It took Jiang Han a dozen breaths to suppress the baleful aura in his heart and calm himself down.

A hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes as he used immortal power to wrap the essence blood and began to refine it.

"Ah…"

The essence blood quickly entered his body, and Jiang Han felt as if his whole body was burning. At this moment, he even felt a fatal danger. This essence blood seemed to be able to incinerate his physical body.

"Buzz~"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron lit up, and then all of the essence blood was quickly absorbed by the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. Then, a pair of eyes appeared on the cauldron wall.

A surprised voice sounded in Jiang Han's mind: "Huh? Kid, you actually got a drop of Black-Marked Red Flood Dragon's essence blood? This is a good thing!"

"Uh…"

Hearing the voice of the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit, Jiang Han's heart sank. He quickly transmitted his voice: "Senior, this essence blood is mine. You can't secretly take it."

"Too late!"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit transmitted its voice: "This king has already absorbed it. Is there any more? Get some more for this king to devour!"

Jiang Han rolled his eyes. He said coldly, "No more, just one drop!"

"Bullshit!"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit paused and transmitted its voice: "This king just checked your memory. You got over ten thousand drops of Red Flood Dragon blood. Quickly… give them all to this king to devour! With this essence blood, this king's vitality can recover a bit."

"You're dreaming!"

Jiang Han's eyebrows shot up. He took out the Heavenly Beast Cauldron and looked at the pair of eyes, saying, "I'll refine it myself. I don't need the Heavenly Beast Cauldron anymore. This essence blood was hard for me to get. I need to improve my physical body."

"Kid, have you forgotten our agreement?"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit angrily transmitted its voice: "You promised to get this king one hundred thousand drops of third-grade immortal beast essence blood every year. What… are you going back on your word? Do you believe this king will seal the Heavenly Beast Cauldron and prevent you from refining any pills?"

Jiang Han awkwardly touched his nose and said, "Isn't there still time before a year is up? This Red Flood Dragon essence blood is very important to me. I'll help you get the essence blood of other immortal beasts later."

"No way!"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit said with unusual firmness: "This king wants Red Flood Dragon essence blood. Are you giving it or not? If not, this king will immediately seal the Heavenly Beast Cauldron."

"Then I'll spit on you!"

"Spit away, it doesn't matter. You can't refine pills. See how you explain it to Little Firefly… doll."

"Huh? Do you know Fairy Firefly?"

"Don't know her. One sentence, are you giving the essence blood or not?"

Jiang Han hesitated. If the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit really sealed the cauldron, then he wouldn't be able to refine pills. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to explain it. He wouldn't be able to explain it to Madam Yu either.

He thought for a while and said, "I promised to give you one hundred thousand drops of third-grade immortal beast essence blood a year, but this Red Flood Dragon is a third-grade peak-level immortal beast. One drop of its blood is worth a thousand drops of ordinary third-grade immortal beast blood, so I can only give you a hundred drops of essence blood at most."

"Did your brain get caught in the door? Third-grade peak-level is still third-grade. Not one of the one hundred thousand drops can be less."

"I'll take a step back and give you one thousand drops!"

"Ninety-five thousand drops then. This king will also take a step back!"

"Five thousand. This is my bottom line. Don't force me to spit on you!"

"Ninety thousand. You spit or not!"

"Ten thousand. Not one drop more."

"Eighty-five thousand, kid. This king has already given you a lot of face. If you force this king more, this king will get angry."

"Twenty thousand. Don't force me to turn hostile."

"Eighty thousand, kid. Think about it this way. If this king's strength recovers, I can unlock more functions of the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. That will also benefit you."

"Thirty thousand. You help me unlock a new function of the Heavenly Beast Cauldron!"

"Not yet. This king's strength is too weak, and your battle prowess is also weak. How about this… you give me seventy thousand drops. When your battle prowess is comparable to an Immortal Lord, this king will help you unlock a new function."

"Deal!"

After some bargaining, Jiang Han finally paid the price of seventy thousand drops of essence blood.

However, he received a promise from the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit that when his battle prowess was comparable to an Immortal Lord, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron would unlock a new ability.

Jiang Han took out the essence blood from the spatial ring. He didn't dare to be too fast, refining it one drop at a time.

This essence blood was extremely overbearing. As soon as it entered his body, he felt as if his whole body was about to burn. Fortunately, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron would absorb all of the essence blood at the first moment, so he could withstand it.

Slowly, Jiang Han's physical body's ability to withstand it began to improve. He quickly refined the essence blood. After refining seventy thousand drops of essence blood, Jiang Han stopped.

He transmitted his voice: "Seventy thousand drops. You can't absorb any more. If you go back on your word, I'll throw the Heavenly Beast Cauldron into the latrine and soak it for five days."

"Hmph!"

The Heavenly Beast Cauldron's artifact spirit transmitted its voice: "How could this king be like you? I naturally keep my word."

"Good!"

Jiang Han nodded with satisfaction. There were a total of over one hundred and thirty thousand drops of Red Flood Dragon essence blood. He still had over sixty thousand drops left, which he estimated could allow his physical body to rise to another level.

"Buzz~"

Just as he was about to refine a few drops of essence blood to see the effect, the divine array in the room lit up.
