Although he had already stepped into the Blood Martial Realm, he was still very unfamiliar with the use of his intrinsic martial blood. Be it his power of Lunar or the Blood Ax’s Shadow, they could not be augmented by his intrinsic martial blood.
It was as if these were two completely different powers. It was incompatible. This was also why he lacked powerful methods when facing Blood Martial Realm martial artists. All of this was mainly because he had only stepped into the Blood Martial Realm for a short time. Moreover, he did not have the cultivation techniques and secret techniques of the Blood Martial Realm.
This was also his greatest drawback.
Fortunately, although it was not easy to kill a Blood Martial Realm martial artist this time, he still successfully killed him in the end and dropped an item.
Xiao Shi picked up the item expectantly. He took a closer look.
[Name: Blood Refinement Technique (Earth Rank)]
[Type: Cultivation technique secret manual]
[Grade: Blood Martial Level]
[Introduction: A cultivation technique created by a Blood Martial Realm martial artist.]
[Remark: It can refine the intrinsic martial blood into different blood in a special way with some special materials.]
Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up.
Cultivation technique manuals of the Blood Martial Level were exactly what he lacked now. Moreover, the cultivation technique manual that dropped this time was an Earth-rank cultivation technique manual!
According to the previous drop patterns, Earth-rank cultivation technique manuals were already medial-class items. Yhe Blood Martial Realm martial artist Xiao Shi had killed this time was only the weakest among the Blood Martial Realm.
Logically speaking, the item dropped by such a Blood Martial Realm martial artist after death would basically be ordinary quality items. However, a medial-class item dropped this time. This was considered a very good luck outburst.
Xiao Shi immediately began to cultivate this Blood Refinement Technique. The cultivation of this Blood Refinement Technique was not very difficult. Especially with Xiao Shi’s current powerful talent, he only used two hours to completely master this blood martial level secret cultivation technique.
From this, Xiao Shi understood that the key to this Blood Refinement Technique was mainly the materials.
As he did not have any Blood Martial Level materials at the moment, he could only use Qi Martial-level materials as a substitute. The Qi Martial-level material he took out was a special tree vine that had a relatively strong binding effect.
According to the refinement method of the Blood Refinement Technique, Xiao Shi refined this tree vine with a trace of intrinsic martial blood. Hence, it formed a brand new blood. It circulated in Xiao Shi’s body. When he needed it, he could use it at any time.
While this blood had a certain power, it also had a binding effect. However, because the materials refined were not in the Blood Martial Level, it was still lacking in all aspects. It was not perfect enough.
As for the specific power, he would only know after Xiao Shi tried through those Blood Martial Realm martial artists.
From the looks of it, its power definitely far exceeded the power of Lunar. After all, the power of the Lunar was still at the Qi Martial Realm.
As for the Blood Refinement Technique, it was a blood martial cultivation technique. According to the standards of the Blood Refinement Technique, the blood Xiao Shi refined this time was only the worst quality blood.
If he wanted to refine powerful blood, he had to have the right materials. Qi Martial-level materials were far from enough.
Xiao Shi did not continue refining blood. He planned to refine it after obtaining the Blood Martial Level materials.
He also felt that a Blood Martial Level item was clearly far from enough. He still needed more blood martial-level items.
However, the battle with the Blood Martial Realm martial artist this time made him realize that it was not easy to kill them. He needed to be wary of the other party detonating his intrinsic martial blood at all times.
Due to the huge commotion caused by the previous battle, it was obviously unrealistic to continue killing Blood Martial Realm experts in Zhongjiu City. Xiao Shi was prepared to stay here for a few days. After the storm calmed down, he would leave this place.
Due to the fact that he had many medicinal pills that could change his appearance and the Martial Emperor Mask’s concealment of his aura, this allowed him to stay in Zhongjiu City without arousing anyone’s suspicion.
However, he did not expect the Blood Martial Realm martial artists in Zhongjiu City took this matter very seriously.
The next day, they sealed off the entire Zhongjiu City! No one in the city was allowed to go out. They also did not allow anyone outside to enter. They deduced that the person who killed Shao Fei was very likely still in Zhongjiu City.
Now that the entire Zhongjiu City was sealed, they had to find him.
Xiao Shi frowned at this. He was not worried that he would be found. He just didn’t want to be restricted here for a long time. However, he knew that under the blockade of these Blood Martial Realm martial artists, even if he escaped into the Lunar, he would definitely be discovered by them.
Once that Martial Soul Realm expert returned, there would be even less chance to leave this city.
“I have to think of something.” Xiao Shi fell into deep thought.
According to his observations over the past few days, these Blood Martial Realm martial artists formed a defense line in all directions of Zhongjiu City. If he wanted to forcefully charge out of Zhongjiu City, he could choose one of the defensive lines. As long as he broke through this defensive line, he could escape from Zhongjiu City.
However, Xiao Shi had a feeling that the defensive line they formed was a bait. Its purpose was to use those weaker defensive lines to attract him to attack. Once he attacked, they would attack together!
After all, through the previous battle, they definitely had a judgment of his strength. It was impossible to let those first-blood realm martial artists defend a line of defense alone.
After some thought, Xiao Shi decided to wait and see.
Three days passed in a row. Xiao Shi had yet to find a way to leave Zhongjiu City. These Blood Martial Realm martial artists seemed to be determined to compete with him in patience.
“If that’s the case.” A cold glint flashed across Xiao Shi’s eyes. A black mask appeared in his hand.
It was the Heavenly Mystery Mask!
Whoosh!
The moment he put on the Heavenly Mystery Mask, The surrounding space suddenly distorted. His soul seemed to have been pulled out of his body by the black mask. It was directly drawn into the mask!
In the next moment, Xiao Shi appeared out of thin air in the huge Heavenly Mystery Palace. With a thought, je directly teleported to the Heavenly Mystery City outside and sensed Wu Muzhen’s location. He appeared in front of Wu Muzhen.
At this moment, Wu Muzhen had yet to enter Heavenly Mystery City. He maintained his stone statue form.
When Xiao Shi summoned him, he immediately arrived at Heavenly Mystery City as quickly as possible.
“Palace Master!” Wu Muzhen bowed respectfully to Xiao Shi.
“There’s something I need you to do.” Xiao Shi ordered.
“Palace Master, please instruct me!” Wu Muzhen bowed.
“There’s something I want in Zhongjiu City in the Tiandou Province. You know that my identity is sensitive now, so it’s not convenient for me to do anything. I want you to help me get this thing.” Xiao Shi said.
“Yes!” Wu Muzhen nodded without any hesitation. To him, being able to help the palace master was something that he could not ask for more. Such an opportunity was something countless members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace yearned for but could not obtain. However, he still added after agreeing. “However, Palace Master, I haven’t arrived at Tiandou Province yet. I estimate that it will take another five to six days to reach Tiandou Province.”
Xiao Shi nodded. “It’s fine. As long as you can help me get this thing.”
Wu Muzhen immediately nodded seriously. “I will do my best. What do you need, Palace Master?”
“Heavenly Mystery Box.” Xiao Shi said.
“Heavenly Mystery Box!?” Wu Muzhen’s heart trembled.
“This Heavenly Mystery Box is located somewhere in Zhongjiu City, but you need to search carefully in Zhongjiu City when the time comes.” Xiao Shi said calmly.
He had thought it through very clearly. As long as Wu Muzhen came to Zhongjiu City and searched for the Heavenly Mystery Box in it, the Blood Martial Realm cultivators in Zhongjiu City would definitely not be able to continue sealing the city.
Moreover, in such a way, Wu Muzhen would not discover his true identity. After all, he was only asking him to find the Heavenly Mystery Box. He did not reveal any traces of his whereabouts.
Wu Muzhen would never have thought that his true goal was actually to use him to help him escape..
