"Blackie, are you there?"
Blackie's head popped out from the wall. "Yes?"
"Can I summon a low-level demon here?"
"Yes."
This was Blackie's territory, after all. Chen Zhao was a frequent visitor, but he still had to respect Blackie.
Chen Zhao summoned Raz, who immediately saluted him.
"Honorable living being, thank you for summoning me. May I know how I can help you?"
"I want the fruit and the water of the Sea of Death."
"Huh? Honorable living, are you planning to become a demon? Or is someone going to become a demon? "
"It's not me, it's my pet. Is this ritual very common?"
"A long time ago, there was no precedent of other species turning into demons. It wasn't until 300 years ago that this method appeared."
300 years ago? Did this Soulbringer spread the method to Hell?
"You seem to need demon blood. I'm willing to contribute. Oh, you don't seem to need mine. You have better choices."
"Better choices? What's the benefit of using advanced demon blood? "
"The success rate is higher, and there's a small chance of an unexpected effect."
"What unexpected effect?"
"Special ability awakening."
"Like a demon's special ability?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I understand. What's the price for these two things?"
"Ten years' worth of demonic crystals for the fruit and one year's worth of demonic crystals for the Sea of Death."
"Is perfect crystal powder okay?"
"Perfect crystal powder?" Raz's expression froze when he saw Chen Zhao take out a bag of perfect crystal powder. "You … you … you ground the perfect crystal into powder?"
"Yes."
"Oh my god … Do you know what you're doing? You're wasting a heavenly gift. Do you know how precious perfect crystals are in Hell? That's something only Great Lords and Demon Kings can enjoy. Yet, you've actually ground a Perfect Crystal into powder? "
It wasn't the first time Chen Zhao had heard demons complain like this, but he didn't care.
This was because grinding perfect crystals into powder could help him earn more demonic crystals.
If he wanted to gain, he had to learn how to pay first.
"How about selling the rest of the perfect crystal powder to me?"
"What can you trade? A space ring? "
"Honorable human, that's impossible. Although perfect crystal powder is still very valuable, it can't be compared to a complete perfect crystal."
"But the value shouldn't be low. Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked me for it."
"If you still have all the perfect crystal powder left, of course I can, but you've already used up a lot, so I can't exchange a space ring with you."
"Alright … Then what do you plan on using to exchange for the perfect crystal powder?"
"What about the Stones of Pollution? In terms of value, it's about the same. "
"Pollution Stone? What is it used for? "
"It can make humans or demons sick, and it's controllable. The Stone of Contamination contains all the diseases of the human world and hell." Raz took out a green stone.
"I'm a doctor. I don't need this."
"It's exactly because you're a doctor that you need this thing. You can make people sick and then you can treat them. That's the fastest way to earn money."
"That's too troublesome. I can just rob them. Isn't that faster? Is there anything else that's more practical?"
Raz thought for a moment and said, "Mind vessel. Maybe you can use this."
"Mind vessel?"
"Yes. It can absorb other people's spiritual power and then pour it into a specific target."
"What's the use of this spiritual power?"
"It can make people more energetic. When you're sleepy, you can use some spiritual power to recover your energy."
"It's not practical at all …" Chen Zhao pouted. "How much?"
"One-third of the perfect crystal powder."
"That's too expensive. I'll give you one-fourth at most."
"Fine."
Seeing Raz agree so easily, Chen Zhao felt that the price was too high.
Raz took out an hourglass and handed it to Chen Zhao.
"How do I use this?"
"Put it in a place with many people and it'll fill with spiritual power."
"Is it harmful to others?"
"No. Actually, it's not devouring. It's absorbing the spiritual energy emitted by others. Only the scattered spiritual energy will be absorbed by it. When you need it, open the lid and take a sip. You'll recover your energy."
"Do you have anything else good?"
Raz introduced a few more items, but Chen Zhao didn't like any of them.
"Oh, do you have a substitute coin?"
"I don't have any more. I only have one substitute gold coin on hand," Zhang Heng said.
"If you have more, remember to tell me."
"Okay. If there's nothing else, I'm going back to Hell."
"Goodbye."
Chen Zhao went out again and had Beelzebub contribute some demon blood.
"Walter, come here." Chen Zhao found Walter, who was playing with the three-headed dog. Walter ran to Chen Zhao with its tongue out.
"Walter, you don't have much longer to live. Now, I'm going to turn you into a demon. I hope you can understand. This will allow you to live longer. If you agree, scream once. If you don't, scream twice."
Woof, woof —
"Okay, you agreed twice." Chen Zhao squatted on the ground. "Drink this. Drink it all."
Walter tilted its head and looked at Chen Zhao. It couldn't understand what Chen Zhao was saying.
It could only understand some simple commands and actions in human language.
Chen Zhao made a drinking gesture. "Drink it, drink it all."
Walter looked at the colorful liquid in the basin and seemed a bit hesitant.
It probably also thought that this was dark cuisine.
"Little One, Little Two, Little Three, come. Drink half."
The three huge dog heads came down and licked their tongues. The demonic potion that Chen Zhao had worked so hard to make had already been reduced by half.
"Stop, stop, stop … You've eaten too much."
Howl —
The three dog heads all let out happy sounds. They seemed to like the taste.
Of course, there was the powder of perfect crystals in it.
Seeing that Little One, Little Two, and Little Three were so happy, Walter finally lowered its head to drink the demonic potion.
It tasted weird, but it was pretty good.
However, after a few sips, Walter seemed to be sleepy again. It wobbled a few steps and then collapsed at Chen Zhao's feet.
Woo —
Little One nudged Walter with its head, but Walter didn't react.
Chen Zhao checked Walter's condition. It was still breathing. It seemed to be asleep.
