Translator: 549690339
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t know the specific effects of the Frenzy Demon Stones, but he knew that absorbing them would help him understand.
Even though he didn’t know Xiao Yuwei well, she definitely would not desire a stone with no significant benefits.
The only thing that worried Jiang Xiaobai was the possibility of side effects from absorbing the Frenzy Demon Stones.
Would it be more effective if the stone were absorbed in combination with something else, or was there another method of absorption?
The thought alone gave him a headache. The worry wasn’t about potential side effects; with his resilience and the Alchemist Skill, even if there were, they’d be manageable.
He can handle it.
The fear comes from the uncertainty that he might fail to realize its important functions after absorbing it.
“Anything goes, just absorb it!”
Jiang Xiaobai coldly snorted to himself and gritted his teeth firmly grasp the Frenzy Demon Stone in his hand. He then started to operate Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill to absorb the energy within it.
Suddenly, a very pure energy flowed through the meridians into the Sea of Qi. Although the volume was small, the energy was incredibly pure, surpassing the energy of superior spirit stones by a thousand or even ten thousand times!
When Jiang Xiaobai was absorbing the Frenzy Demon Stones, he was carefully tasting the energy to check if there were any other side effects. Surprisingly, he did encounter a problem.
He felt as though he was intrinsically connected with this Mad Demon Valley.
It wasn’t an explicit feeling, but it was there indeed!
Besides having some pure energy, there were no other sensations.
With Jiang Xiaobai’s rate of absorption, the Frenzy Demon Stone was completely absorbed in a blink of an eye and turned into a heap of ash-grey powder, falling through his fingers and scattering on the ground.
“How did it feel, Boss? Did you feel anything unusual?” AnRan anxiously looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
“No specific feelings. But in some unexplainable way, I sense that I’m connected to this Mad Demon Valley, as if it were water, and I’m a fish.”
Jiang Xiaobai frowned, continuously analyzing the matter in his mind.
However, he is not from here and knows next to nothing about Mad Demon Valley. He lacked several innate conditions, and even if he knew what the Frenzy Demon Stone’s special function was, the actual effect could not be guessed.
“It seems like I need to find someone and ask.” Jiang Xiaobai mumbled to himself.
Then without wasting any time, he took AnRan and disappeared into the boundless darkness.
In the time that followed, whether it was due to good luck or the abundance of the Frenzy Demon Stones, Jiang Xiaobai found fifteen stones in only an hour.
He was now only five stones away from completing the task assigned by Xiao Yuwei.
But the closer he got to completing the task, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart because he needed to figure out the actual use of these Frenzy Demon Stones!
Xiao Yuwei couldn’t possibly need them for no reason, and he indeed felt that the Frenzy Demon Stones had strange capabilities.
Then, Jiang Xiaobai stopped looking for Frenzy Demon Stones and decided to capture a live person instead and find out what exactly these stones do.
However, in this vast darkness, it would require amazing luck to find a person.
People are not like Frenzy Demon Stones that don’t move. People are constantly on the move.
It would be a difficult task to run into someone in such a large area with so few people.
Luckily, Jiang Xiaobai was in luck today.
Soon after having the idea of finding people, he and AnRan ran into a group of people near a vine emitting aqua-blue light.
They were a group of three; two at the early stage of their Transcendence and one at the later stage of the Yuan Infant realm who looked like independent practitioners based on their attire.
When both groups bumped into each other, the other group was quite vigilant, their gazes sharp as knives, staring stubbornly at Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan.
“Gentlemen, we mean no harm. We were just wondering if you knew what Frenzy Demon Stones are used for?” Jiang Xiaobai looked at the three men, his tone amicable.
He didn’t fully understand the situation in this area yet, so it was better not to do anything reckless. If he were to overly exert himself, his spiritual protective barrier could weaken, and poisonous miasma could infiltrate, endangering his life.
When the three people heard Jiang Xiaobai’s words, they were also surprised. They exchanged glances, and one of the men at the early stage of Transcendence asked Jiang Xiaobai.
“You came to the Mad Demon Secret Land without knowing its use? Isn’t that like seeking death?”
“Hehe, I came here from a very faraway place and have little knowledge about the situation here. I hope you can be kind enough to help.” As Jiang Xiaobai replied, he took out a Frenzy Demon Stone and handed it to the man.
The three men couldn’t believe what they were seeing; they stared as though something amazing was falling from heaven.
Soon after, the man who had spoken earlier quickly snatched the Frenzy Demon Stone. He held it with extreme caution, treasuring it as though it was an invaluable treasure.
“Since you’re so straightforward, I’ll tell you.”
“The Frenzy Demon Stones are the most important things in the Mad Demon Secret Land. To survive here for a longer period, you need more Frenzy Demon Stones. Besides that, there are many places with rules – if you don’t have enough Frenzy Demon Stones, you can’t even enter.”
With these words, Qin Chen was startled!
If that’s the case, then the Frenzy Demon Stones were precious items, and no matter how many you have, it would never be too much.
But why did Xiao Yuwei only ask them to find twenty?
No matter what her plan was, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t want to think about it now. His only concern was to collect as many Frenzy Demon Stones as possible because he definitely had to get away from her.
“Thank you for the information, brother. It’s helped me greatly!”
“Farewell!”
Jiang Xiaobai expressed his gratitude, prepared to turn around and leave.
However, at this moment, the three men suddenly stepped forward to block Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan.
They wore sinister smiles, especially the man who had just explained, holding a shiny dagger and playing with it in his hand.
“Gentlemen, what is the meaning of this?” Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
“You’ve also said that it was a great help, haven’t you?”
The man sneered, “Since that’s the case, did you think you could leave without giving us any reward?”
“Didn’t I just reward you with the Frenzy Demon Stone?”
“Hehe, one stone is nothing. There are three of us here.”
“Oh? So you mean, I have to give you two more Frenzy Demon Stones?” Jiang Xiaobai asked with interest.
When the three men heard Jiang Xiaobai’s words, their eyes lit up.
Just as they guessed, this young man did have more Frenzy Demon Stones!
“Of course not, we’re not so greedy. Just give us all the Frenzy Demon Stones you have.”
“Consider it tuition for the lesson we just gave you.”
