Chapter 129 Earth Core Tempering Milk (First Update, Please Vote)

"Swish swish——"

The corpse of the Snow Demon Ape of the Nalan Holy Dynasty beckoned, and several streams of black energy shot out from its body, eventually condensing into a black ball the size of a thumb, which landed in Nalan Holy's palm.

After taking away the Snow Demon Ape's soul, Nalan Sheng also collected its corpse, intending to keep it for future weapon crafting.

Upon seeing this scene, Zi Yan didn't seem to feel any sense of shared sorrow; instead, she displayed an expression of complete indifference.

After all, the Ancient Void Dragon and the Snow Demon Ape are not the same race, and it is common for magical beasts to fight each other.

Therefore, Ziyan doesn't think, like that certain mischievous rabbit, that monsters killing each other is the law of the jungle, and that humans hunting monsters is an unforgivable crime.

"Little sister, what's your name?"

"I'm not some little sister!"

Zi Yan put her hands on her hips, looking displeased, and said, "My name is Zi Yan, and I'm much older than you. You should call me 'older sister'."

"Hahaha----"

Upon hearing this, Nalan Sheng couldn't help but smile and pat Zi Yan's head, saying, "If you want me to call you 'sister,' you'll have to beat me first, little Zi Yan!"

"snort!"

Seeing that Nalan Sheng deliberately called her "Little Zi Yan," Zi Yan angrily flicked her pigtails and said, "Don't touch my head, or I'll stunt my growth!"

"Zi Yan, if I'm not mistaken, you must be a magical beast too, right?"

Nalan Sheng feigned curiosity and asked, "But if you're a transformed magical beast, how could you possibly be unable to defeat even the Snow Demon Sky Ape?"

Zi Yan's lips twitched slightly, revealing a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I accidentally ate a Transformation Grass, which is why I turned into this form."

"I see."

Nalan Sheng nodded in realization, then asked again, "Then how did you end up fighting with the Snow Demon Ape? If I hadn't happened to be passing by, you would have been in serious trouble."

"Well—"

Faced with Nalan Sheng's question, Zi Yan hesitated for a moment, but finally waved her hand and said, "Never mind! Considering what you just did..."

Since you helped me, I won't hide it from you anymore.

The reason I fought with that stinky monkey was because it had treasures hidden in its cave.

Although that stinky monkey hid very well, it couldn't escape my nose.

"Really?"

Nalan Sheng feigned skepticism and asked, "Is your nose really that sensitive?"

"If you don't believe me, I can take you to that treasure right now."

Zi Yan changed the subject halfway through her sentence, saying, "But we have to agree on this first: after we find that treasure, you can't keep it all to yourself. We'll split it 50/50."

"OK!"

Nalan Sheng smiled and nodded, saying, "If you really have that ability."

"Then come with me!"

Zi Yan waved to Nalan Sheng and skipped towards the cave where the Snow Demon Ape lived.

The cave where the Snow Demon Ape lived was very spacious; otherwise, it would have been difficult to accommodate such a huge creature.

After leading Nalan Sheng into the cave, Zi Yan raised her delicate nose and sniffed around, quickly fixing her gaze on a certain spot in the cave.

In a corner.

There was a large dent in the ground in that corner, covered with a layer of white fur, and there were many footprints around it.

Upon seeing this, Zi Yan quickly walked over and then blew a strong breath into the layer of white fur.

"call"

As a gust of wind swept by, the white fur and the mud and sand beneath it were instantly blown away, revealing a large, dark hole.

"Hehe~ I told you that guy was hiding treasure!"

As soon as Zi Yan finished speaking, she jumped into the black hole first, followed closely by Nalan Sheng.

The two walked through the winding, black passage for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before finally seeing a cave entrance emitting a white light.

After Nalan Sheng and his companions passed through the cave entrance, their view suddenly opened up, revealing an underground world filled with stalactites.

Countless stalactites hang above the cave, some even reaching hundreds of meters in length, forming a milky-white stone forest.

"The baby's over there!"

Zi Yan ignored the stalactites and sniffed around before leading the Nalan Holy Dynasty to the central area of ​​this underground world.

The two wandered through the stalactite forest for more than ten minutes before finally stopping in front of a giant stalactite that was over a hundred meters long and several meters in diameter.

Directly beneath that giant stalactite lies a huge blue stone. At the top of the stone is a groove less than half a foot deep, filled with a two-inch-deep milky white liquid, with a faint white mist floating on top.

"This is----"

Upon seeing this, Nalan Sheng feigned surprise and exclaimed, "Earth Core Tempering Milk!"

"Earth Core Tempering Milk?"

Seeing that Nalan Sheng recognized the milky white liquid, Zi Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is that?"

Although Zi Yan could sense the aura of rare and precious herbs, she had no way of figuring out their specific functions; otherwise, she wouldn't have accidentally eaten the Transformation Grass in the first place.

"Earth Core Tempering Milk is a rare and precious material made from the essence of the earth. It not only has the miraculous effect of cleansing the marrow and rejuvenating the body, but it can also help people below the Dou Wang level break through cultivation bottlenecks."

Nalan Sheng said with a sigh, "It is said that only one drop of Earth Core Tempering Milk can be condensed each year. Although this amount of Earth Core Tempering Milk in front of us does not seem like much, it has been condensed for at least several thousand years."

"Oh~"

Zi Yan nodded subconsciously, then unconsciously swallowed and said, "Okay~ let's hurry up and divide it up! I haven't drunk Earth Core Tempering Milk yet~"

"Zi Yan, you're already a Dou Wang level expert, it's a bit of a waste for you to still be consuming Earth Core Tempering Milk —"

"what?"

Before Nalan Sheng could finish speaking, Zi Yan asked warily, "You wouldn't be thinking of keeping all this Earth Core Tempering Milk for yourself, would you?"

You've misunderstood.

Nalan Sheng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "What I mean is, I can use other spiritual medicines to exchange for your share of the Earth Core Tempering Milk."

"Anyway, you're only consuming spiritual herbs to increase your strength; you don't necessarily have to consume Earth Core Tempering Milk, right?"

"That's fine too."

Upon learning that Nalan Sheng did not intend to keep the Earth Core Tempering Milk for himself, but rather wanted to barter for it, Zi Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Nalan Sheng truly disregards martial ethics and chooses to kill and plunder, Zi Yan might not even have a chance to escape.

"Zi Yan, I won't let you suffer a loss. How about I trade this Blood Spirit King Ginseng for the Earth Core Tempering Milk?"

After Nalan finished speaking, he took out a jade box from his storage ring and handed it to Ziyan.

When Zi Yan opened the jade box, a ginseng root, entirely blood red and about a foot long, appeared before her.
