“Really? We don’t know the characters on it. You mustn’t lie to us,” said demon rat.

Mu Lingyi doubted it as well. “This is no joke, Blackie. Don’t play with us. Do you really know the words written on it?”

Blackie was angry that they all doubted it, and said, “You should trust me. How could I be wrong? Move away, let me show you how I take the Rune Curse back.”

Blackie appeared to be very confident. It strode to Green Stone, studied it carefully, and pressed its bottom with its claws.

Suddenly, all the characters on the stone turned into sword Qis which hit toward Blackie, and throwing it more than thirty meters backwards.

Even if Blackie had fallen on the ground, sword Qis still would have hit it.

Bang Bang.

Blackie rolled on the ground and groaned with pain. “How could it be wrong…it doesn’t make any sense…”

“Let me try.”

Zhang Ruochen appeared to be rather careful. He raised his arms, transferred the power of space to the surface of the stone. The characters on the stone showed rays of blinding light at once, and would turn into sword Qi in just one second.

“Rise.”

Before it could happen, Zhang Ruochen immediately used Spatial Move to move the Green Stone to the Scroll World.

Inside the Scroll World, dozens of sword Qis flew out from the stone, but dispersed in a short while and couldn’t hurt Zhang Ruochen.

A giant pit appeared on the ground after the stone was moved away.

Zhang Ruochen was about to enter the Scroll World and study the Green Stone, when a ball of dim green light rose from the bottom of the pit.

“Eh!”

Zhang Ruochen stopped and walked to the edge of the pit. He looked down to the bottom.

And surprisingly, he found that there was divine blood all over the bottom of the pit.

All the divine blood converged into a small blood pond underneath the Green Stone. If the stone hadn’t been removed, nobody could have detected it.

More surprisingly, there was green grass growing on the surface of the Blood Pond.

The grass was like a vine, floating on the water’s surface, and it had seven leaves in total.

The first leaf was shaped like a dragon. At the core of the leaf, there was a crimson fruit, which looked like a dragon’s eye.

The second leaf was shaped like a tiger with tiger stripes interweaving on it.

The third leaf was shaped like a phoenix, giving off flames and burning the leaf like a lantern.

The fourth leaf was shaped as Xuanwu; the fifth was shaped as Kirin; the sixth was as a scorching sun; the seventh was as the moon in the night sky.

Seven leaves floating on the water’s surface formed into the Seven Stars Rule, giving off a dark green light.

And… the light grew stronger.

Blackie rushed to it too and saw the Seven Leaves Grass in the Blood Pond. It couldn’t stop drooling, and roared, “The divine herb…Seven Star Sacred Tuber…”

With its voice being heard, dazzling light was emitted by Seven Star Sacred Tuber in the Blood Pond, and made it hard for them to open their eyes. At the same time, the cries of dragons and tigers, and the roars of Rosefinch, Xuanwu and Kirin were heard.

When the sounds were heard, they shocked everyone like divine thunder. Even though the cultivation of each one present had reached Half-Saint level, their ears felt hurt, heads dazzled, and Qi and blood tumbled.

If they were Fish-Dragon Realm monks, they could have died there.

Silently, the ground began to shake slightly, and the vine of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber burst out from the bottom of the pit and extended upward rapidly.

“The Talisman of Heaven and Earth has weighed above the Seven Star Sacred Tuber and forced it to sleep since the ancient times. Now that the Talisman of Heaven and Earth has been removed, the Seven Star Sacred Tuber began to wake up gradually. We should take it before it becomes fully awake. Once it becomes totally awake, even a saint couldn’t take it,” said Blackie.

“Save your words. Let’s do it immediately.”

Zhang Ruochen transferred Spatial Rules into the Space Domain, which wrapped up the Seven Star Sacred Tuber and the Blood Pond.

Now, the Seven Star Sacred Tuber had grown into dozens of meters long, with its vine as thick as an arm. Densely arranged scales could be seen clearly on its vine, and traces of flames rose from it.

Blackie also worked hard with its claws, busily and rapidly producing inscriptions.

Lines of strange patterns were like a giant web wrapping up the Seven Star Sacred Tuber as it floated in midair.

“Pick.”

Blackie pressed downwards through the inscriptions with its claw, and reached to the root of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber.

But unexpectedly, the first leaf of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber shaped as a dragon gave out a giant Dragon Soul, which was dozens of meters long, together with a deafening dragon groan.

The powerful soundwave struck Blackie and sent him flying away.

Meanwhile, the Seven Star Sacred Tuber grew even faster. And the Qi given out by it became so scary that it could almost break the Space Domain created by Zhang Ruochen.

Blackie knew the secret to picking up the divine herb, but its low cultivation couldn’t help it do anything to the Seven Star Sacred Tuber.

Zhang Ruochen stared at Ghost King Bloodmoon with his teeth clenched, and shouted, “Hurry up and help it! Once the power of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber breaks through the Space Domain, the Qi of the divine herb will be given out. If the Death Zen Elder comes here, not to mention the divine herb, it would be a question of if we could survive him.”

A divine herb was enough for Death Zen Elder to kill for…

Ghost King Bloodmoon was the one who had the highest cultivation among them. Only with her help, there might be a chance that they could take the divine herb.

Blackie said, “If you could suppress the power of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber for the time of a breath, then I could move it to the Scroll World. As long as it was moved to the Scroll World, I could deal with it slowly.”

Naturally, Ghost King Bloodmoon was clear about the value of a divine herb. Although she appeared to be unhappy, she began to transfer all her power.

“Hua!”

Her ghost form turned into a black ghost fog, flew out and winded on the vine of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber, suppressing its power for the moment.

Blackie rushed to it again. With its claws pressing into the root of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber, it pulled the Seven Star Sacred Tuber out of the Blood Pond, and threw it to the Gate of Space.

The Space Domain broke into pieces with a boom.

Zhang Ruochen’s clothes were totally wet from sweat. He breathed hard, and almost kneeled on the ground.

Ghost King Bloodmoon condensed into ghost form again, but the cost to her was huge too, no better than that to Zhang Ruochen.

Mu Lingxi stared at where the Gate of Space had disappeared, and said, “I just saw something tangling on the root of the Seven Star Sacred Tuber. From the light given out by it, it must be a gem.” Zhang Ruochen nodded, as he perceived this, too.

But since the Seven Star Sacred Tuber was taken into the Scroll World, there was no rush to deal with it.

Zhang Ruochen looked at monster ape, and said, “Monster ape, go up above the magma sea, and detect things happening in Ghost God Valley. If you find other monks comeing this way, report to me immediately.”

After monster ape left, Zhang Ruochen drank Xuanwu Saint Blood, and recovered his spent Holy Qi with the power of the Saint Blood. After that, he stood up and looked at the Blood Pond, which was at the bottom of the giant pit.

Blackie grinned. “A full pond of divine blood…we’ve hit the jackpot.”

“Blackie, should you know how to seal divine blood?” asked Zhang Ruochen.

Blackie nodded, “The power of divine blood was too strong to be contained by ordinary vessels. Only with the pith of Saint Jade and a top level Seal Inscription could it be reserved. But this would be way too complex. I have a simpler way.”

“What is it?” asked Zhang Ruochen.

Blackie said, “Divine Sky-Connecting Tree is a deity. Each lump of its wood was like a divine bone. Although it is only left with one root and its remaining power has transferred to the new branch, Divine Sky-Connecting Tree is still divine wood. A vessel made by it would be powerful enough for containing divine blood.”

Mu Lingxi clapped on her forehead, and said with shock, “Right! Why didn’t this occur to us earlier?”

Zhang Ruochen entered the Scroll World immediately, chopped off a big lump of divine wood from the root of the Divine Sky-Connecting Tree, and made it into a dozen vessels of different sizes.

Only after that did he pour all the divine blood from the Blood Pond into the vessels, putting them in a place where they could be well kept.

Demon rat gave a greedy look at the divine blood in Zhang Ruochen’s hands. It licked its lips and was tempted to rob it.

Blackie tapped on demon rat’s shoulder with a claw and laughed. “What is it? You want divine blood?” Demon rat trembled with fear, and put away its greed. It bowed to Blackie and smiled in curry favor. “How could I dare to consider that in front of you, my lord. It’s just that…if my lord could talk to Zhang Ruochen about it, and let him award me some divine blood, I would be willing to die for you.”

“Is that so?”

Blackie pinched the bottom of demon rat, and gave it a cold stare. “If you serve us sincerely, there will surely be benefits for you. But if you want to play tricks, I could make you suffer more than death.”

With four legs shaking, demon rat said constantly, “No, no, I won’t…”

“Well then, go to work with the Saintess of your Sect and Han Xue. Dig out all the Divine Blood-red Earth and move it all to the Scroll World. Be fast. If you work well, we can award you a drop of divine blood.”
