Chapter 255: 255

255 Vitality

Shen Fei’s eyes brightened. “Is there a market for spirit crystals, Uncle Tao?”

“Of course, but spirit crystals are too rare, and much too expensive for ordinary people to buy.”

“The Shen family used to be quite rich. Back then, your family could afford two spirit crystals in a year.” Tao Ming shook his head and sighed, his tone sounded envious.

The corner of Shen Fei’s mouth twitched, and he could not help but ridicule, “You would empty our house for two crystals?”

“What do you know, kid?” Tao Ming glanced at Shen Fei. “These are crystals! A total of two! I don’t think there are as many of these crystals in the Northern City!”

“Since it’s so precious, why are there still people willing to spend money to buy it?”

“That’s because spirit crystals are rich in spiritual Qi. For Beastmasters, they’re definitely the best resources for cultivation,” Tao Ming repeated.

Shen Fei nodded. A Beastmaster needed to devour heavenly and earthly treasures in order to break through to the next realm. Not only that, the stronger the Beastmaster, the greater the demand. Spirit pills and miraculous medicines were rare items, too, and could not be wasted.

It was precisely because of this that the number of Beastmasters was much fewer than that of alchemists. Although there were few alchemists as well, they did not neglect their martial training and were true martial arts Grandmasters!

“Uncle Tao, do you know where the ruins are?” Shen Fei said urgently.

Tao Ming was stunned. “You’re not thinking of fighting for the treasures in the ruins, are you?”

Shen Fei grinned but did not reply.

Tao Ming shrugged helplessly. “This mountain range is huge, and the area is vast. The location of the ruins is uncertain. Finding the ruins is easier said than done. I know you want to enter the ruins, but with your strength, you’ll definitely die if you go in!”

Hearing this, Shen Fei could not help but frown.

Tao Ming continued, “There are many beasts in the mountain range. And they’re all dangerous in their various ways. For instance, each one of the Five-patterned Armored Lions can kill a Nine-star martial apprentice, or even an exotic beast king.

“Not to mention, there’s also an Emperor-rank beast there. Its strength is unfathomable, far beyond the beasts of the same realm!”

Shen Fei’s mood immediately became depressed.

Tao Ming patted him on the shoulder. “Fei, I feel that you’re not fated to be part of this exploration. It’s better if you don’t take the risk.”

“Uncle Tao, I’ve already made my decision.”

“You…” Tao Ming opened his mouth and sighed. “Since you insist on taking the risk, I will support you!”

“Thank you, Uncle Tao.” Shen Fei smiled at him.

“No matter what decision you make, I’ll always be behind you,” Tao Ming said.

Shen Fei nodded solemnly. He knew that his Uncle Tao was concerned about him. After all, he was too young, and his cultivation was too weak. He could easily be killed by strange beasts, or be ambushed by ferocious wild beasts.

“Uncle Tao, you should rest first. I still have some errands to do tomorrow.” Shen Fei smiled, turned around and returned to his room.

“This child, why doesn’t he listen to advice?” Tao Ming looked at Shen Fei’s back and smiled helplessly. Then, he went to use the washroom.

After returning to his room, Shen Fei immediately sat down cross-legged and took out a spirit crystal he somehow managed to acquire.

In a split second, a vigorous vital Qi surged out. This vital Qi was pure and majestic, and it contained a rich life force. Shen Fei did not hesitate to absorb the vital Qi and fuse it into his body.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for fusing with vital Qi and obtaining a wisp of vitality.] The system’s voice sounded.

“Vitality?” Shen Fei’s eyes flickered as he muttered, “What’s the use of vitality?”

After thinking for a moment, Shen Fei temporarily suppressed his curiosity and concentrated on his cultivation. Within his body, more wisps of vitality slowly emerged and fused into his meridians, flesh, and blood, nourishing his bones and skin.

As his vitality continued to increase, Shen Fei’s entire body began to itch, as if ants were crawling all over his body.

“It’s itchy…” Shen Fei gritted his teeth. The veins on his forehead were bulging, and his entire body was drenched in sweat.

He tried his best to control the itchiness and pain, but he still could not bear it. The pain made him want to tear out his own skin! However, he forced himself not to move until his skin turned red and blood seeped out…

Finally, Shen Fei could not take it anymore, and there was even blood trickling out of his mouth. His face turned pale, his breathing became rapid, and his chest felt like there was a weight there.

“It’s so itchy!” Shen Fei growled and touched his face. It was covered in blood.

Shen Fei’s face was distorted, and his expression was ferocious. He seemed to have gone crazy. His eyes were red and he was panting heavily.

“Hahahahaha…”

Suddenly, he raised his head and laughed madly. He was in a state of madness and his mind was out of control, as if he was possessed.

“Hey, kid!” Tao Ming cried and rushed to Shen Fei’s side. He asked nervously, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Fei’s laughter was heart-wrenching, as if he was venting his extreme anger and humiliation! After a long while, Shen Fei calmed down. He raised his head, and his eyes were frighteningly cold. Could it be that this was how one’s vitality increased?

Shen Fei looked at his palm. There was a small blood mark there. The itchy feeling earlier must have been caused by the blood seeping into his skin.

Shen Fei squinted his eyes and stared at the blood mark on his palm. He could vaguely feel that this mark seemed to represent some kind of signal.

“I know now… This blood mark represents my potential!” Shen Fei muttered.

“Potential?” Tao Ming was stunned. This was the first time he had heard of such a term.

Shen Fei laughed. “I once read an ancient book that recorded many things, including words like ‘potential’. As long as I can activate this blood mark, I will have great potential.”

“I see. Then why don’t you give it a try?” Tao Ming asked.

“Alright!” Shen Fei nodded, then he closed his eyes.

He circulated his cultivation technique and tried to guide the energy into the blood mark. Shen Fei’s palm erupted with a resplendent golden light.

At this moment, Shen Fei felt a terrifying aura descend. The aura made it seem like the sky was falling, and the earth was sinking. It suppressed the surroundings and made his heart tremble.

Shen Fei suddenly opened his eyes. He felt something in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, and his breathing was weak. Just a small amount of this aura put a great toll on Shen Fei’s enhanced body, and he almost fainted.

Seeing this, Tao Ming quickly helped Shen Fei lie down to rest. Shen Fei’s face was pale and drenched in sweat.

In that instant, he felt as if he was facing a peak that was impossible to reach. No matter how he resisted, he felt extremely weak against it.

Shen Fei bitterly smiled, shook his head and sighed. “It seems that I can only wait for the future.”

He was eager to get more spirit crystals and obtain great power—and he was still very confident that he would—but if he were to strike a rock with an egg, he would probably be crushed to death instead!

…

The next morning, when Tao Ming woke up and saw Shen Fei sleeping on the bed, he smiled. “The kid is finally quiet.”

Later, Shen Fei rubbed his drowsy eyes and got up from the bed.

“Good Morning, Uncle Tao.” He laughed and said, “Uncle Tao, why are you up so early today?”

Tao Ming smiled. “I slept too late last night, so I woke up early to cultivate. What about you? What plans do you have today?”

Shen Fei scratched his head and said, “Oh, I’m going to register for the beast taming ceremony.”
