《Dao: Journey to the Top of the Universe》C119. Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice
Advertisement
Then he picked up the purple jade box, which actually contained an incomplete old picture. The picture had turned yellow. Clearly it had been kept in the box for ages. Shiao Chen took it in his hand and couldn't help feeling curious about it, with a surprised look on his face. He hesitated for a moment before he applied a slight force to it by using his physical mana, but it was not damaged at all.
"It has been carefully kept by the old geezer Mingxiao, which proves that the picture must be very important. But judging from its size, it is only a third of the original complete picture. It's quite difficult to collect the rest parts all together in such a vast world." Shiao Chen shook his head and put it back into the jade box, which was put into his storage bag later.
Attracted by the last storage bag, Shiao Chen went ahead and opened it.
The storage bag was extremely large, which had a space of at least a hundred square meters. There were many strange dark red grains piled up in it, which was the size of a child's fist. Shiao Chen felt something specil about it, so he took out one grain from the bag. The smell of the grain made him feel refreshed, as if there was the vigor of life coming out of the grain, which made him shocked! A fist-sized grain of rice contained a vitality comparable to a hundred years of life for ordinary mortals.
"Sister, come out quickly and see what I am holding?"
A moment later, Yu Ji's lazy and soft voice slowly rang out in his consciousness. She yawned and asked, "What, did you get something good this time?"
Shiao Chen looked slightly stiff. Although he became familiar with Yu Ji and got better resistance against her enchantment, he still fell to her trap sometimes. He hurriedly said, "It's the blood rice in my hand. The vitality contained within it is really shocking. Do you know what it is?"
"Oh." Yu Ji was a little excited, showing some interest, "Let me see."

As he spoke, Shiao Chen felt a ripple of divine sense being emitted. A moment later, a lovely shouting was heard. Yu Ji's figure came out once again and she stared at the rice in Shiao Chen's hand as if she couldn't believe what she saw. She cried out, "Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice!"
Shiao Chen felt a little confused when he saw this. He did not know what was so special about it which made Yu Ji, who had always been aloof and casual, lost her composure.
"Do you know the origin of this rice?"
Looking at the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice, Yu Ji took a deep breath after a while, and had a meaningful look in her eyes.
"Little brother, it seems like you are indeed a man of great fortune. You have obtained such a divine object like the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice in the mortal world. Your future achievements will definitely be unlimited."
Yu Ji's eyes were full of joy. As she slowly explained, Shiao Chen finally knew the origin of the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice.
The Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice was said to be made from a primordial tree which had some blood of the real dragon, and thus contained endless vitality. A mortal who ate a grain of rice could prolong one hundred years of his or her life. Cultivators who consumed it could obsorb the vitality. It helped not only prolong their lives but also constantly nourish their bodies. Finally, their bodies became as mighty as magic weapons and every move carried great power!
But this was not the most precious part of the Dragon Teeth Rice!
The primordial dragon in the legend was quite poweful and intimidating, comparable to a cultivator at Mastery-stage. It was said that the rice was tainted with the aura of the dragon and contained a tinge of energy in Heaven and Earth. If cultivators could take the rice several times, they could improve their understanding of the Heaven and greatly improve their cultivation.
"Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice. Even in the spirit world, it is a divine object that can't be seen for tens of thousands of years. It was a coincidence that I had seen it at the birthday banquet of an elder." Yu Ji recalled. "The one who took out this rice was a famous rogue cultivator. Only ten grains made the elder surprised and grateful. After that, when that elder tried to break through the bottleneck in his cultivation, he swallowed ten Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rices in succession. Finally, he made a breakthrough through the comprehension of Tao brought by it."

After that, Yu Ji looked a little coy and hesitant. After a while, she opened her cherry-like lips and said in a slightly displeased tone, "Little brother, do you mind if I ask you to give me this Dragon Teeth Rice? I know it is extremely precious, but it is indeed very useful to me. With one grain, my soul will recover a little. "
After that, Yu Ji couldn't help blushing and felt nervous. After all, the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice was too precious. It was reasonable if Shiao Chen decided to leave it for himself. After waiting for a moment and seeing his expressionless face, Yu Ji couldn't help sighing, her eyes turning dim.
The beauty sighed softly and awoke Shiao Chen, who hadn't come back to his senses after being overwhelmed by the joy of obtaining such a precious object. Looking at Yu Ji's gloomy face, he cursed himself in his heart and hurriedly smiled, "Sister, don't take it the wrong way. Since this rice is useful to you, you can just take it."
Yu Ji thought of something else. She forced a smile and didn't reply.
Shiao Chen was a little anxious when he saw this. "I really mean it. I was stunned just now because... Alas, You can tell at a glance."
Yu Ji was a little confused. She let her divine sense dive into the storage bag in Shiao Chen's hand. Shock crept back on her beautiful face, and she was speechless for a long time.
After a while, seeing that Yu Ji had no response, Shiao Chen couldn't help scratching his head and said suspiciously, "Sister, is this Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice really so precious? I'm just a Gold Core cultivator who destroyed the human world. How could I get a small pile of the rice?"
Yu Ji was speechless.
"Boy, who knows what kind of luck you had. Look at the lines on the rice, faintly forming the shape of nine-clawed real dragon, and its vitality is so vigorous. It must be the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice." Yu Ji was serious, and her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together. She warned, "Since you have this, you must not tell the truth about this to others, otherwise countless cultivators will covete it. Even the world's top None Descending cultivators may also come out of the remote mountain forest to fight for it.
"
Hearing this, Shiao Chen suddenly broke into a cold sweat and kept nodding his head. He had made up his mind not to let others know. But before he put away the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice, Yu Ji stretched out her hand and took it in her hand with a smile, "Give it to me first. In the future, remember to give me one every ten days. In this way, even if I fail to refine the pill, my soul will probably recover." With a delicate smile, the figure flashed into his body and disappeared.
Shiao Chen shook his head with a bitter smile and carefully laid dozens of layers of restrictions on his storage bag. Only then did he feel relieved and lowered his head to meditate.
Although the Blood Jade Dragon Teeth Rice was good, it couldn't solve the problem at present. The Luoyun Valley would fight with Flaming Sect three days later. The clock was ticking.
Shiao Chen hesitated for a moment and took out a palm-sized jade bottle from his storage bag. A look of caution came into his eyes.
