Chapter 96 - 96: 96: Black Nightmare Snake and Shadow Monster! 1
“Brother Lv, how much is a Blood Race Earl’s Heart worth in Dragon Rising Coins?”
“I’m very interested in materials from Divine Beasts!”
Fang Mu knew that Conveyors often resist using Divine Materials from Divine Beasts.
Because there are some Conveyors who have failed to evolve their Guardian Beasts or even suffered from poisoning due to the use of Divine Materials from Divine Beasts.
However, many materials from Divine Beasts are irreplaceable.
Even then, Conveyors are not willing to take risks and get involved in the possible complications.
Conveyors always care about their reputation.
Therefore, Conveyors often do not teach their assistants and disciples knowledge about and usage of materials from Divine Beasts.
After all, if their disciples or assistants make a mistake, it often reflects on the Conveyors, affecting their reputation.
Fang Mu, aware of this, has no psychological burden in inquiring about the knowledge of materials from Divine Beasts.
But while Fang Mu has no concerns, Lu Yuyu doesn’t know how to respond at first!
That Jianmu doesn’t know about these things obviously suggests that his teacher didn’t want to teach him.
And Jianmu’s teacher wouldn’t want him to learn about something Jianmu is showing such keen interest of.
Just in case something goes wrong, he doesn’t want to be held accountable by Jianmu’s mentor!
However, since Jianmu asked, he felt obligated to answer.
So, Lu Yuyu decided to only answer Jianmu’s question about the price and not provide any additional information!
“Brother, a Blood Race Earl’s Heart is hard to acquire with Dragon Rising Coins!”
“But if converted, due to its limited use, it could be bought for around eight million Dragon Rising Coins!”
“It’s even less expensive than some high-quality golden treasure instruments!”
“After all, the heart of a Blood Race Earl, even if used as an auxiliary item for saving guardian beasts…”
“To improve their blood circulation and revive their heart…”
“There’s still a high chance it may cause other problems for the Guardian Beast!”
Upon hearing this, Fang Mu gained a certain understanding of the value of a Blood Race Earl’s Heart.
He also now knew how to negotiate a fair price when trading with the scavenger.
Fang Mu pointed at the pulsing Blood Race Earl’s Heart and said to Liu Jihui.
“I want this one!”
Upon hearing this, Liu Jihui immediately took the Blood Race Earl’s Heart out of the tray and placed it on a nearby exhibit.
He had the members of the Lionheart Brigade continue showing Fang Mu the rest of the collection on the trays.
Trays kept passing in front of Fang Mu’s eyes.
He only chose one thing – a box of venom sacs from the Silver-tier Tamed Beast Nightmare Snake!
The Nightmare Snake species is very rare,
A female Nightmare Snake lays eggs after swallowing a male once it reaches the Silver Stage.
The female then dies after laying the eggs.
Therefore, there are no Gold-tier beings in Nightmare Snake species.
But the Nightmare Snake is considered one of the deadliest killers in the forest. Once a Beast Master or Guardian Beast gets bitten by a Nightmare Snake,
If not treated by a Healing beast tamer capable of detoxifying the poison,
The injured Beast Master and the Guardian Beast would often die of various reasons within a month.
Their corpses would be completely rotten.
That’s why the Beast Masters call the pitch-black, slender Nightmare Snake the “Nightmare Snake”.
The world of Beast Masters that Fang Mu inhabits in this life relies entirely on Healing Beast Master for medical treatments.
There isn’t much in-depth research into traditional medicine.
When Cui Ruochen was studying the venom of the Nightmare Snake, Fang Mu was assisting him.
Although Cui Ruochen didn’t come to a conclusion, Fang Mu understood after the experiment.
The reason why the venom of the Nightmare Snake is rumored to be capable of killing Platinum Beast is because…
The venom of the Nightmare Snake attacks the lymphatic system as soon as it enters the body.
The lymphatic system is the body’s first line of defense against disease.
The venom of the Nightmare Snake, once it enters the lymph nodes, inhibits them and makes them ineffective.
The toxicity of the Nightmare Snake’s venom in itself is not strong.
However, once the entire lymphatic system fails, being bitten by any venomous snake, insect, rat, or ant in the forest, or even inhaling toxic pollen,
The toxin will directly affect the body without any hindrance, causing a series of terrible transformations.
This resulted in the Nightmare Snake becoming a terrifying legend.
Every world has its unique knowledge system.
Applying his previous life’s medical theories to this world would instantly make Fang Mu stand out.
Therefore, Fang Mu didn’t publicize it but carefully noted the effects of the Nightmare Snake’s venom.
Ever since the Clean Water Spirit began absorbing various toxins, Fang Mu had thought of the Nightmare Snake’s venom.
Even though the venom of the Nightmare Snake is not lethal, it will greatly enhance the killing effect of other toxins after it infects the target.
Moreover, it can shorten the time it takes for the poison to take effect by breaking down the target’s immunity.
Now that he has encountered a box full of Black Nightmare Snake’s venom sacs, Fang Mu has no reason not to take it!
As time elapsed, the queue of collectors finally reached the last one.
The moment the last tray arrived, Fang Mu’s gaze was instantly attracted to a light gray stone in the upper right corner of the tray.
Various eye-shaped scars were scattered across the stone, yet it doesn’t look ugly.
Fang Mu stared at the stone, and felt as though the eyes on it were blinking at him!
It emitted a dim gray glow.
Even though it was glowing, this supposedly bright light seemed to be absorbing the surrounding light.
The environment dimmed slightly as a result.
As Liu Jihui watched one tray after another pass by Fang Mu, who had only chosen two items, he felt somewhat discouraged.
The total value of these two items is not enough for an elixir of life with eighty percent purity.
Now that Fang Mu appeared interested in a collection again, Liu Jihui promptly said,
“Sir Jianmu, if you are interested in materials from exotic beasts’ bodies, you should be interested in this Shadow Eye Stone!”
“Previously, many forces tried to get this Shadow Eye Stone from our Lionheart
Brigade, including the Beastmaster Alliance.”
“But we have always disagreed!”
“If it weren’t for you, we would not have taken out this Shadow Eye Stone!”
‘YOU can asK Mr. LU 11 you aon•r Deneve me!”
Hearing his words, Lu Yuyu rolled his eyes at Liu Jihui.
When he first came to JA City to be an external administrator for the Beastmaster Alliance, his first task was to trade for this Shadow Eye Stone from the Lionheart Brigade.
However, Liu Jihui directly rejected him, leaving him no face.
He didn’t want to mention this incident but Liu Jihui brought it up anyway!
Liu Jihui was willing to take out the Shadow Eye Stone, probably to express his sincerity and willingness to be on Fang Mu’s good side.
All he needed to do when Liu Jihui mentioned him was to help verify his claim for him.
This way, Liu Jihui would owe him a favor.
Lu Yuyu didn’t mind doing a favor for Liu Jihui!
“Young man, never mind that Shadow Dimensional Rifts are rare.”
“Open a hundred random Dimensional Rifts, and not even one is guaranteed to be a Shadow Dimensional Rift!”
“Moreover, even if a Shadow Dimensional Rift is opened, there’s no guarantee that a Shadow Monster will appear within it!”
“At best, there are just a variety of Shadow Beasts!”
“The Beastmaster Alliance once had a precedent where they cleared five Shadow Dimensional Rifts in a row without encountering a single Shadow Monster!”
“The Shadow Eye Stone is only found within a Shadow Monster, which should give you an idea of how rare it is!”
“He’s always held onto this treasure.”
“I once offered him nearly two hundred million Dragon Rising Coins of supplies, including a diamond mid-grade spiritual instrument, to exchange.”
“But he did not agree!”
As Lu Yuyu said this, one part of it was to do a favor for Liu Jihui.
On the other hand, he was afraid that Fang Mu would offer Liu Jihui too high a price.
Even though the Shadow Eye Stone is rare, its effect is just to enhance some specific extraordinary beasts abilities related to shadows!
If it is used to strengthen the owner’s Guardian Beast, it can also improve the guardian beast master’s insight!
Those who really need the Shadow Eye Stone are blind people!
Using the Shadow Eye Stone has a chance of restoring one’s sight.
Although the rarer an item, the more precious it is, sometimes, its function can limit its price.
If Liu Jihui’s quoted price exceeds two hundred million Dragon Rising Coins, it would be inappropriate for Fang Mu to take it!
