Although Mu Qian was only a nine-star Martial Emperor, he was born in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and was a steward of the Ten Thousand Beasts Building. He had seen many Martial Emperors. The moment he saw Yang Qi, he immediately determined Yang Qi's identity as a Martial Emperor.
"Deacon Mu, there's no need to be so polite."
Yang Qi smiled calmly, looked at Mu Qian and said, "I believe you already know why I came here. I wonder if the Ten Thousand Beasts Building has the blood of star beasts at the level of the Martial Emperor?"
"We in Wanshou Building do have the Martial Emperor-level star beast blood that you need, but it's very expensive, and we don't accept Yuan Jing transactions." Mu Qian said.
Although Yang Qi is at the Martial Emperor level, Mu Qian is not afraid. After all, Wanshou City is guarded by the Martial Emperor from their Wanshou Sect. Even a Martial Emperor dare not ignore the rules of Wanshou City.
Hearing Mu Qian's words, Yang Qi's eyes lit up and he asked with a little excitement, "Really?"
On the way to the Ten Thousand Beasts Star Region, he had also inquired in several other star regions, but unfortunately he had never found the blood of star beasts at the Martial Emperor level. This also made Yang Qi very disappointed. He did not expect that the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower actually had what he needed.
"I dare not deceive you, senior." Mu Qian said with a calm smile, his expression revealing a hint of confidence. Although the Wanshou Sect no longer has the glory of its peak period, it still has a high-level Martial Emperor in charge, and it is still the strongest cultivation force in the Wanshou Star Domain. The Wanshou Building has the confidence to do so.
After all, Yang Qi was at the Martial Emperor level, so he quickly recovered and looked at Mu Qian in front of him and asked, "How do I trade the blood of a Martial Emperor-level star beast?"
"A treasure of the highest grade Taoist soldier level." Mu Qian said.
"Top-grade Taoist soldier?"
Yang Qi frowned upon hearing this. Although Mu Qian did not ask for a top-grade Daoist soldier, but a treasure of the top-grade Daoist soldier level, the treasure of this level was not less valuable than a top-grade Daoist soldier. It was a bit too exaggerated to trade a treasure of the top-grade Daoist soldier level just for the blood of a star beast of the Martial Emperor level.
Seeing Yang Qi frowning, he knew what Yang Qi was thinking, and quickly explained, "Senior, you should know the special nature of star beasts. Once they are discovered, they will be surrounded and killed by practitioners. There are too few star beasts that grow to the Martial Emperor realm. And once they grow to the Martial Emperor realm, even if you succeed in killing them, the price you have to pay is too high."
Star beasts are born at the level of Martial Emperors, and can only survive in the endless universe. How much do they need to devour in order to grow to the level of Martial Emperors? Even if star beasts can devour everything, in the process of growing to the level of Martial Emperors, countless lives will perish, and even the cultivation worlds may not be few!
Back then, only one star beast at the peak of the Martial Emperor level appeared in the Cangkong Star Region, which created a vast desolate star region. Even after the star beast's death, a large number of star beasts appeared in that area, posing a constant threat to the creatures in the nearby star regions.
Compared with the insect beasts at the Martial Emperor level and the insect beasts at the peak of the Martial Emperor level, there is a qualitative transformation, and the harm caused will be even greater. Even if a strong man deliberately raises star beasts in captivity, it is not an easy task to reach the Martial Emperor level and then kill them!
It is precisely because of this that star beasts have become priceless items, and even if you have Yuan Jing you may not be able to buy them!
Although he knew that star beasts at the Martial Emperor level were rare, Yang Qi still found it hard to accept exchanging them for top-grade Taoist soldiers. After all, even at the Martial Emperor level, one might not possess top-grade Taoist soldiers. This showed how valuable top-grade Taoist soldiers were!
Mu Qian seemed to see the hesitation in Yang Qi's heart, and spoke again, "Senior may not know this, but as far as I know, there may not be one person with the blood of a star beast at the level of a martial emperor in hundreds of star regions. This kind of blood is usually found in the hands of insect and beast cultivation forces or powerful witch cultivators."
When witches study everything, star beasts are undoubtedly excellent materials. In fact, many witches have studied weak star beasts, and insect beasts are no exception. The way insect beasts grow and evolve is similar to that of star beasts.
Hearing this, Yang Qi felt helpless. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect looked like they were hoarding rare goods, but it was indeed as they said, the blood of a Martial Emperor-level star beast was not so easy to obtain. Even if someone had it, they might not be willing to sell it. Apart from the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower in front of him, it would not be so easy for him to obtain the blood of a Martial Emperor-level star beast.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi's expression changed for a moment, and after a moment he gritted his teeth and said, "I wonder how many Emperor-level star beasts' blood I can get for an ordinary top-grade Taoist weapon?"
There was no other choice, Yang Qi could only choose to exchange the best Taoist weapons for the blood of the star beast. Fortunately, he had several best Taoist weapons, and he didn't need them himself, so he wouldn't feel too bad even if he exchanged them for the blood of the star beast. However, Yang Qi didn't want to expose the fact that he had several best Taoist weapons, so he showed a painful look. After all, he had encountered the cultivation forces secretly attacking guests and trying to kill people and steal treasures.
"This needs to be judged based on the value of the top-grade Taoist soldiers. Even ordinary top-grade Taoist soldiers have different values." Mu Qian looked at Yang Qi and said.
Hearing this, Yang Qi's mouth twitched.
There are indeed some differences in the value of ordinary top-grade Taoist weapons, but the difference is not too big, unless it is some special weapons. Mu Qian said this, clearly wanting to make some fuss about the value of top-grade Taoist weapons.
But since he had decided to exchange the best Taoist weapon for the blood of the Martial Emperor-level star beast, Yang Qi did not hesitate any longer. With a thought, an ancient long sword appeared in his hand. It was the least valuable of the best Taoist weapons in his hand.
Mu Qian took the long sword and examined it carefully. As a steward of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower, identifying Taoist soldiers was a very basic matter, even the top-grade ones were no exception.
After Mu Qian inspected it, he said, "It is indeed a top-grade Taoist weapon, but the value of this top-grade Taoist weapon is not high."
“How much blood of Martial Emperor-level star beasts can it exchange for?” Yang Qi asked in a deep voice.
Mu Qian thought for a moment, looked at Yang Qi and said, "One hundred milliliters of blood essence or one hundred kilograms of blood."
Essence blood is different from blood. Essence blood is simply extracted, while blood is just ordinary blood.
"This emperor chooses blood." Yang Qi said.
As a cultivator, Yang Qi naturally knew that the amount of essence and blood that could be extracted from one hundred kilograms of normal blood was much more than one hundred milliliters. Obviously, it was more cost-effective to choose blood.
“Senior, although theoretically more blood essence can be extracted from one hundred kilograms of blood, the blood of star beasts at the Martial Emperor level is extremely overbearing and violent. Without certain means, it would be very difficult even for a Martial Emperor to extract the blood essence.” Mu Qian reminded.
Hearing this, Yang Qi's face darkened. If he was extracting ordinary blood essence, it would not be difficult with his strength. But the star beast itself was very special. After Mu Qian's reminder, he immediately realized that it might not be so easy for him to extract blood essence. (To be continued)
