Chapter 236: Look at What? Just Die for Me! (3)

His ability is unique and not something that others can possess just by wanting it.

Explaining it wouldn’t make the other person believe, and he didn’t have any need to explain.

The most valuable parts of a demonic beast’s corpse are its demonic core and heartblood. However, some other parts of the demonic beast also hold significant value, such as the scales on this snake demon.

Unfortunately, they currently lack the means to utilize these scales, as it requires the skills of a master craftsman. Su Yang’s sword intent, while versatile, was currently at too low a level to enable him to engage in artifact crafting.

When you can only use the power of three-level sword intent, achieving dimensional refining is clearly not possible.

Within Liu Village, there were no master craftsmen. The existence of Liu Daifu, who could refine elixirs, was already extremely rare and abnormal.

Liu Daifu’s existence was a ray of hope left behind by the world woven by the evil god.

With no master craftsmen present, it meant these snake scales might go unused. Nevertheless, Su Yang decided to have Cao Tianle and the others collect them. Regardless of whether they had any use, they would take them back, just like the tiger’s corpse.

After collecting all the valuable items from the snake demon, Su Yang didn’t leave with his group. Instead, he turned his gaze toward the cave where the snake demon had been lurking.

At this moment, the causality lines he saw still pointed towards the cave, meaning there was something inside.

Since the result had been deduced, Su Yang didn’t need to think much. He could simply follow the causality lines to understand what was inside.

This was an enormous cave, and entering it led through winding and twisting passages.

As soon as Su Yang stepped inside, he felt a scorching power.

“What is this…?” Cao Tianle, following Su Yang, noticed the difference in this place in an instant.

“Su Fellow Daoist, this place is radiating the power of the Red Sun. Perhaps it is meant to counteract that demon ghost,” Cao Tianle speculated.

“The power within that demon ghost is extremely cold. If the other party comes here, their strength will undoubtedly be greatly restricted.

If we hide here, perhaps we can make it through the night.

Once we make it through the night, we can shatter this closed-loop world and obtain our rewards!” Su Yang responded.

After gaining a bit of understanding about this unique treasure, Cao Tianle became excited.action

With this place, their hopes of breaking the closed-loop world were even greater!

After exploring the entire cave, Su Yang also nodded in agreement with Cao Tianle’s statement.

“Indeed, if we come here to hide at night, as you said, the strength of that demon ghost will undoubtedly be weakened, which is certainly advantageous for us.

“However, within this cave, apart from this special terrain, there is nothing else. Let’s make a note of this and return for now.”

After a thorough exploration of the cave, everyone had a clear understanding of the situation inside.

Indeed, as Su Yang had said, apart from the unique terrain, there was nothing else inside.

Perhaps there were supposed to be treasures here, but they might have been devoured by the snake demon. Otherwise, the snake demon wouldn’t have grown to the level of a Qi Refining Stage Four beast.

Nevertheless, now they had the snake demon’s gallbladder and heartblood, and with these two items, they could further improve their strength.

With all their gains in tow, the group returned to Liu Village.

The return journey was slightly slower as they had to carry the snake demon’s corpse.

The snake demon’s body was massive, and even with Su Yang’s help, the five of them, with only Qi Refining Stage One cultivation, struggled to carry it. Were it not for Su Yang, they would have had a hard time transporting it back.

Fortunately, after some time and effort, they managed to get it back. Su Yang’s plan was simple – whether it had any use or not, he would bring it back and leave it in his courtyard.

If they could make use of it, they would. If not, they could just leave it there.

After dealing with this matter, it was almost time for the agreed one-hour period with Liu Daifu.

They rested for a bit and then set out once more to reach Liu Daifu’s house.

However, after knocking on the door with great force for a while, there was no sign of anyone coming to answer it. The door remained tightly shut.

The group began to feel uneasy, especially when they lingered at Liu Daifu’s doorstep and noticed the scent of blood emanating from inside.

Cao Tianle looked at Su Yang and asked, “Su Fellow Daoist, what should we do now?”

Su Yang frowned and said, “Break the door and see what’s going on inside.”

Cao Tianle nodded in agreement. The situation inside was unclear, there was no response to their knocking, and there was a distinct smell of blood, which clearly indicated something was amiss.

With a bit of force, Cao Tianle made the entire wooden door crash down. The situation inside, however, left everyone surprised.

Inside the house, Liu Daifu lay on the ground, lifeless, with a bloody hole in his chest.

Liu Daifu was already dead.

This meant that their materials brought to this place had gone to waste.

“Is this… done by that old Daoist?” For a moment, everyone thought that this might have been the work of the injured old Daoist.

After all, the injured old Daoist had previously asked them for the demonic core and heartblood of the Qi Refining Stage Three pig demon, and they hadn’t given it to him.

Now, the injured old Daoist had resorted to any means necessary and killed Liu Daifu, who had been helping them refine elixirs.

They couldn’t be certain about the entire process, but what they thought of at this moment was this possibility..
