"Are there any Guardians related to the stars or the universe?" Zhou Wen sat on the sofa and muttered to himself. It was just too difficult to find a suitable Guardian. Most importantly, Zhou Wen didn't know where those Guardians were.
Zhou Wen had the urge to return to the phoenix's nest with the chick and discuss with the phoenix to see if he could obtain a drop of blood essence from the cocoon the phoenix was guarding.
Just as he was considering it, the antelope walked over and stood opposite Zhou Wen, writing on the ground with its hooves.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised. The antelope usually didn't pay much attention to Zhou Wen, so he didn't know why it had suddenly come over. He hurriedly looked at the ground.
"You want to find a Guardian related to the stars?" The antelope wrote on the ground.
"So what if I am? Do you know where I can find one? "Zhou Wen asked.
"Haven't you already seen one before? Why are you asking where I can find one? "The antelope continued writing.
"When did I see one?" Zhou Wen frowned. He didn't remember seeing such a Guardian.
"Not only have you seen one, but you've also memorized it." The antelope looked at Zhou Wen teasingly and continued writing.
"When did I … memorize …" Zhou Wen suddenly reacted as he widened his eyes and asked the antelope, "Are you saying that there's a Guardian inside that log?"
The antelope smiled at Zhou Wen and wrote, "That's a Guardian with the Life Providence of the Lord of the Stars. It's also a top-notch existence among Guardians. You originally had the chance to contract it, but unfortunately, you messed things up. Not only did you fail to contract it, but you even became an enemy. Are you regretting it now?"
"You didn't say so earlier. How would I know?" Zhou Wen said helplessly.
"Why? You have to carry that log with you all the time. Do you want me to tell you in front of her that you have to lie to her and think of a way to cheat her? "The antelope curled its lips.
"You could have told me ahead of time." Zhou Wen paused before continuing, "Let's not talk about this for now. Do you have a way to help me obtain a drop of her blood essence?"
"Why do you want her blood essence?" The antelope looked at Zhou Wen in puzzlement.
"I'm cultivating an Essence Energy Art, but I don't have a special physique that matches it. I need a drop of Guardian blood of the same attribute as a foundation," Zhou Wen said.
"What Essence Energy Art is it?" the antelope asked.
Sky-Stealing Sun-Shifting Art. Zhou Wen had no intention of hiding it. Having followed him for so long, the antelope naturally knew that he knew many Primordial Energy Arts. There was nothing to hide.
"So it's that Heaven Stealing Art. It's possible to use her blood essence as a foundation …" When the antelope said that, it pondered for a moment before continuing, "Now that she has returned to Forbidden City, the Essence Energy in Forbidden City will definitely be extremely terrifying. Furthermore, she probably doesn't have a good impression of you. Even if you have a Companion Beast like Tyrant Behemoth, you will probably die after entering. It's basically impossible to obtain her blood essence."
"Is there no other way?" Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed.
Since even the antelope said that there was no hope, Zhou Wen felt that there was no need to take the risk.
To his surprise, the antelope changed the topic and continued writing: "However, your luck isn't bad. I happen to have some of her blood essence."
"You have her blood essence? When did you get it? "Zhou Wen found it unbelievable.
The Guardian had always been inside the log, and the log had never been opened. The antelope had never touched the log, so how could it obtain the blood essence?
"Of course not now. The one in the log is one of the few Guardians who survived the previous Battle of Guardians. This blood essence was obtained in the past." After the antelope finished writing, its body shook and a small jade bottle fell out from the fur under its neck.
This fellow actually hid something? Zhou Wen sized up the antelope's fur in surprise.
The antelope's fur was very short. Only the fur on its neck was slightly longer, but it couldn't hide a bottle. It was unknown how it hid it.
Zhou Wen reached out to take the jade bottle, but he was blocked by the antelope's hooves.
"You can have the blood essence, but I have a condition," the antelope wrote.
"You live and eat from me, yet you want to negotiate with me?" Zhou Wen frowned.
"Do you want it or not?" The antelope had no intention of reasoning with Zhou Wen.
"Alright, tell me. What condition do you have?" Zhou Wen had no choice but to ask patiently.
"In the future, if you have the ability, you have to make a trip to Forbidden City again and get something from her. Originally, as long as you contract with her, that thing would be ours, but it ended up in this state. Now, there's no other way but to use force, "the antelope wrote.
"What's that?" Zhou Wen asked.
"You'll know when the time comes. Don't worry, I'll help you. When the time comes, we'll do as we agreed. We'll split it 20-80."
"No, we said 20-80 in the past because you were the one who found the log. Now that we're cooperating, we naturally can't split it 20-80. 40-60. I'll take 60% and you take 40%. After all, I don't know anything, so the risk is greater." Although Zhou Wen didn't know what it was, he wasn't willing to suffer a loss.
Since he wanted the blood essence, he definitely had to agree to the antelope's conditions. It wasn't a bad idea to fight for some benefits.
"Impossible." The antelope rejected him directly.
Seeing that it was very determined, Zhou Wen said, "Then let's split 50-50. It can't be any lower."
"You don't want the blood essence?" The antelope pointed at the jade bottle.
"40-60. You take 60% and I'll take 40%. This is my bottom line. Furthermore, you have to work together. You can't let me bear it alone," Zhou Wen said.
"Deal." The antelope handed the jade bottle to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen took the jade bottle and opened it to take a look. There was a small blob of blood in the jade bottle. The blood was a strange purple color. It suffused a faint purple starlight, as though there were countless purple stardust inside. It looked beautiful and mysterious.
Zhou Wen had come into contact with the blood essence of many Guardians. At a glance, he knew that it was the blood essence of a real Guardian. However, its attributes were different from what he had seen before. It was very similar to the aura in the log, so it was likely real.
He returned to the training room with the blood and attempted to use the Sky-Stealing Sun-Shifting Art to absorb the blood in the jade bottle. He successfully refined it.
Zhou Wen immediately felt the pocket universe in his body explode. The purple blood essence provided the pocket universe with terrifying energy, causing it to emit terrifying starlight.
Zhou Wen felt his essence, vitality, and spirit condense into the pocket universe. This was a sign that he was about to condense a Life Soul.
Perhaps it was because he had absorbed a lot of blood essence this time. In the past, he had only absorbed one drop. This time, he had absorbed a small blob, about seven or eight drops. The energy contained was far more than before, causing the process of condensing a Life Soul to be abnormally fast.
At Zhou Wen's glabella, a speck of starlight condensed, shining with a purple glow.
