Chapter 1985 - 1985 1975 A Deal

1985: Chapter 1975: A Deal 1985: Chapter 1975: A Deal “Kid, you still can’t threaten me.

If you don’t hand over the Snow Jiao’s essence, I’ll kill you right now.”

The Thunder Tortoise did not take the Little Demon’s threat to heart.

In two more years, his sentence would be fulfilled, and he would be able to leave the Illusion Mist Star.

Within those two years, the Little Demon definitely would not stand a chance against him.

“Brother, let’s just give the Snow Jiao’s essence to this guy.

When I gain the strength, we’ll seek revenge against him.”

The Little Demon said to Long Yan.

They were no match for the Thunder Tortoise, and besides handing over the Snow Jiao’s essence, there was no other way.

“Let’s not hand it over just yet.”

Long Yan signaled the Little Demon not to bring out the Snow Jiao’s essence and then said to the Thunder Tortoise, “The Snow Jiao’s essence is very important to us, too, so we can’t give it to you.

However, I can offer you a Dragon Vein, how about that?”

The value of the Snow Jiao’s essence was roughly that of a Dragon Vein, but the Snow Jiao’s essence had a greater effect on the Little Demon.

“I didn’t expect you, kid, to have a Dragon Vein.

Hand over both the Snow Jiao’s essence and the Dragon Vein.”

The Thunder Tortoise said.

With one Dragon Vein, plus the Snow Jiao’s essence, he might very well break through to the Fourth Rank God King.

“Impossible!”

Long Yan’s expression turned icy.

Even if it meant giving up the trial, he would not hand over the Snow Jiao’s essence and the Dragon Vein to the Thunder Tortoise.

“Kid, you’re asking for death!”

The Thunder Tortoise’s tone turned frosty, as he swiped a claw at Long Yan.

Thunderbolt raged down, covering a vast area of space.

“Time Rob Finger!”

Long Yan’s expression changed.

In a flash of lightning and flint, he used the Time Principle, with the Time God’s Pattern springing from his fingertips, turning into the Time Rob Finger and blasting towards the Thunder Tortoise.

“Bang!”

The Time Rob Finger collided with the Thunder Tortoise’s claw, and the Time Rob Finger was immediately shattered.

The thunder claw mark then struck Long Yan’s body.

In that instant, Long Yan was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Beast!”

Long Yan reached up to wipe the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, flipped his palm, and a mass of thunder light condensed in it, turning into the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal, with a profound will pervading, and thunder roaming about.

“Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame!”

Then, Long Yan released the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame as well, merging it into the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal.

As the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame surged in, the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal immediately burst forth with a dazzling thunder light, the flame raging, and a formidable power filling the space.

“Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal, suppress!”

With a low shout, Long Yan slapped down, and the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal charged toward the Thunder Tortoise.

The Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal was already a Middle Grade Artifact.

Adding the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame, it unleashed unprecedented power.

Space tore apart, and the will of Heavenly Punishment enveloped everything.

Under the encompassing profound will, a hint of wariness clearly flashed in the Thunder Tortoise’s eyes.

At the same time, the Thunder Tortoise once again stretched out his claw, slapping it onto the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal and directly dispersing its power.

The Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal returned to Long Yan’s hands.

Long Yan had employed the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal and Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame; he was indeed powerful.

But the gap in strength meant he could not possibly be a match for the Thunder Tortoise.

“Kid, wait!”

Just as Long Yan prepared to exert another technique, the Thunder Tortoise spoke.

“Hm?”

Long Yan’s gaze sharpened.

He was somewhat surprised, and his movements also ceased.

“Kid, I don’t want the Snow Jiao’s essence and the Dragon Vein anymore.

Let’s talk about a deal, how about that?”

The Thunder Tortoise said to Long Yan.

“What deal?”

Long Yan asked.

“This is not the place to talk.

Follow me.”

With that, the Thunder Tortoise turned and left.

Hesitating for a moment, Long Yan also flew after the Thunder Tortoise along with the Little Demon.

With the Thunder Tortoise acting as a deterrent, other Demonic Beasts naturally dared not lay a hand on Long Yan and the Little Demon.

Before long, Long Yan and the Little Demon followed the Thunder Tortoise to the top of Snow Peak.

“What’s the deal, speak.”

Long Yan said to the Thunder Tortoise.

“I need the Strange Fire within you,” Thunder Tortoise said.

It was precisely because Long Yan had used the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame that Thunder Tortoise had given up the Snow Jiao’s essence and the Dragon Vein.

“Impossible!” Long Yan didn’t even think before he directly refused.

There was no way he would use the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame to bargain with Thunder Tortoise.

“You misunderstand, I do not want your Strange Fire, but I need your Strange Fire to do me a favor,” Thunder Tortoise explained.

“What favor?” Long Yan asked.

If it was just about using the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame to do Thunder Tortoise a favor, he could consider it.

“Back then, I had a conflict with Snow Jiao and suffered injuries to my Primordial Beast Soul.

Your Strange Fire is quite extraordinary and can help me recover.

I only need a strand of the flame’s origin,” Thunder Tortoise said.

At that time, he had been weaker than Snow Jiao and had been gravely wounded by it.

Up until now, the injuries to his Primordial Beast Soul had not healed.

After hearing Thunder Tortoise out, Long Yan began to ponder.

To separate a strand of essence from the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame was something he could do; at most, he would need a period of cultivation to recover without any long-term effects.

“What benefit can you offer me?” Long Yan asked.

Since this was a transaction, it depended on whether Thunder Tortoise’s offer was acceptable.

“I can tell you the location of the Door of the Storm,” Thunder Tortoise said.

Having stayed on Illusion Mist Star for many years, he naturally knew where the Door of the Storm was.

“Go on,” Long Yan’s eyes lit up.

Finding the Door of the Storm meant finding the Ice Emperor Dojo, and surely it held many treasures.

The condition that Thunder Tortoise had offered was something he found hard to refuse.

“The Door of the Storm is hidden in the depths of Illusion Mist Star and is protected by a Natural Array; ordinarily, it’s impossible to find the Door of the Storm, but at a specific time, the Natural Array will cease operation, providing an opportunity to enter the Door of the Storm,” Thunder Tortoise said.

“Inside the Door of the Storm is the Ice Emperor Dojo.

Since you know the Door of the Storm, the treasures in the Ice Emperor Dojo must have been taken by you,” Little Demon said.

If there were no treasures inside the Door of the Storm, there was no use going in.

“That’s not possible; although I know the location of the Door of the Storm, I am completely unable to enter it.

None of the Demonic Beasts on Illusion Mist Star can enter the Door of the Storm; we have The Prohibition placed on us by the Seven-Star Hall,” Thunder Tortoise added.

If it weren’t for The Prohibition, he would have entered the Ice Emperor Dojo and taken the treasures inside.

Long Yan nodded and then said, “I can give you a strand of the Strange Fire’s origin, but extracting the origin would cause great harm to me; you’ll need to offer something more.”

Thunder Tortoise surely had many treasures; now was a good time to extort as much as possible.

“I can give you two drops of Thunder Marrow,” Thunder Tortoise said.

“Deal!” Long Yan said with a smile.

Thunder Marrow was a treasure, far more precious than Divine Liquid, containing the essence of Thunderbolt, and of remarkable value.

Two drops of Thunder Marrow, plus the information about the Door of the Storm, was enough to exchange for a strand of essence from the Nine Nether Spirit Devouring Thunder Flame.

“Extracting the origin will take some time; give me the Thunder Marrow first,” Long Yan said to Thunder Tortoise.

For safety, he wanted to get the Thunder Marrow in his hands first.

“No problem,” Thunder Tortoise was straightforward, waving his claw and sending two drops of Thunder Marrow flying towards Long Yan.
