A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 987: Chapter 979: Fire Phoenix Egg

"Boom," the rift in space on the altar stabilized.

"Shadow of Despair, long time no see. You’ve voluntarily communicated this time; what surprise do you have for me?"

A colossal being resembling an enormous caterpillar, covered entirely in grayish-white thorny spikes and shrouded in black poisonous fumes, protruded its head to overlook Green.

Having not met for millennia, the Bone Demon, who once conducted a trade of the Horned Skull Magic Wand with Green as a Third-Level Creature, had elevated to World Master, appearing to have formidable life strength.

Through the altar projection, the Bone Demon also noticed Green’s unfathomable energy intensity; the soul fires in its skull eye sockets burst brightly, calming the still somewhat chaotic spatial fluctuations around.

"I thought my achievements and evolution speed over these years were astonishing enough; didn’t expect you to be equally profound. It truly is a fascinating world!"

The Bone Demon couldn’t help but exclaim.

With Seven-Colored Runes swirling around, Green stood on this specially constructed kilometer-wide altar, forming a stark contrast to the Bone Demon’s gigantic frame with his diminutive figure of less than two meters, leaning on the extreme abyss magic staff adorned with a blue icy block caught in a skeletal hand, shrouded in demonic Qi.

However, when the Bone Demon saw the extreme abyss magic staff in Green’s hand, it couldn’t tear its gaze away.

What is this!

This is...

"Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain, my old friend, it’s been a millennium since we last met. I’ve adopted a new title; you may call me Oblivion Tower. I summoned you this time to propose a substantial trade, as I urgently need equivalent energy trading items from high-order beings."

Green finished speaking, gazing upward from beneath the Face of Truth at the dual-colored eyes of the colossal entity from the distant Foreign Domain, noticing its unwavering gaze on the extreme abyss magic staff Demon Ancestor’s Arm, aware of its ** towards possession of high-category creature skeletons, Green shook his head and casually covered the extreme abyss magic staff with a layer of Element Light.

Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain is indeed the name given.

In the center of a bluish-green chaotic Threads of Time vortex, a small fragment of bone consumed its internal energy, acting as the communication medium given by the Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain back then. Now, Green summoned and communicated with him using his self-constructed colossal altar, stabilizing the process countless times compared to the Cappuccino summoning altar outside Biser City.

"Level Eight, Level Eight Being...an arm bone of a Level Eight Being!?"

The roar from the Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain almost destabilized the altar’s stable space once again; the sound was imbued with profound shock, desperately trying to squeeze closer to Green.

However, the distance between the two worlds was far too vast, even exceeding neighboring world clusters, too extensive to precisely locate.

Cross-world summoning requires substantial energy, enduring space-time pressure; even a World Master cannot easily accomplish such a task, it constitutes an enormous undertaking.

"Sell me this bone arm! I’ll agree to any condition! I have thirteen and a half million souls from Bolun, a Level 5 World Lord Crystal Core retaining half its energy, a bottle of Honey from the Sky Feather Flower, a Storm Fairy World occupied by my private Catastrophe Skeleton Legion, a liter of water from the Eternal Well, oh, and there’s..."

As he spoke, the Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain, with his myriad caterpillar-like limbs, dragged out something soft from a black Qi encircled world behind him, expending immense energy to throw it onto Green’s altar amid the unknown creature’s screams.

"A complete team of Enchanting Fairies, capable of evolving into various life forms based on the master’s life characteristics, offering wholehearted pleasure to the master."

Amidst the dialogue, the dropped jelly-like creature on Green’s altar gradually transformed into the appearance of a human girl, looking bewildered and pitiful.

Alas...

Even under Green’s Face of Truth, which penetrates appearances and truth, the counterpart remained merely a semi-transparent soft-bodied creature; such superficial form change was meaningless before Green.

Facing the expectant gaze of the Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain, Green sighed and shook his head, gently refusing: "Sorry, your offered conditions are far inadequate to exchange for my magic staff, and I’m currently unprepared to trade this magic staff."

The Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain gradually regained its composure.

The Level Eight Being’s bones were indeed a first sight in its lifetime, no wonder it lost its cool.

"Indeed, how could you possibly agree to exchange with my trifling conditions."

Upon regaining clarity, the Bone Demon spoke in disappointment and a deep voice: "Might I boldly inquire how you acquired this arm of the Level Eight Sovereign?"

Green smiled, tossing the Enchanting Fairy down from the altar amidst its screams, and naturally replied: "Of course, by following the Demon Ancestors in conquering those weaker worlds to obtain such war trophies, not by cultivating a slave of my own, surely? Let’s discuss the bone arm later, for now, I’ll show you some other high-grade goods I’ve collected over the past few centuries."

Saying this, Green opened the Dimensional Gap, revealing a spectacle...

From the Balance Sealed Space, seven sets of skeletons from World Lords of a Dinosaur World, an Ice Demon Summoner’s buried glacier giant beast skeleton unearthed from Parasitic Spore World, along with dozens of assorted ancient, relatively undervalued skeletons found during travels in the Abyssal Underworld of Wizarding World.

"How about it, interested?"

Weaker worlds!?

This creature from another realm calling itself Oblivion Tower, referred to worlds possessing Level Eight Beings as weaker worlds!?

Sigh...

The tremor of Soul Fire, what terrifying realm this is, and how many World Masters and Endless Dominators are there in the world it inhabits, could it be one of those legendary super worlds ruling over entire world clusters?

Trembling with fear, yet Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain laughed heartily: "Bone Demon World never declines any bone trade from external world experts; the quality of these World Lord skeletons is decent, I can offer satisfactory value, but those, due to their antiquity, are..."

Green looked towards the assorted skeletons collected during his Abyssal Underworld travels as indicated by the Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain.

"Oh, it’s fine, those were picked up randomly, the Abyssal Underworld abounds with them, and the strong in this world aren’t interested in such skeletons, I’m too lazy to move about."

Picked up!

A lot!

Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain refrained from saying more, facing these antiquated Level Four, Level Five skeletons, realizing the world under Oblivion Tower’s claim was extraordinarily powerful, far unmatched by the now greatly weakened Bone Demon World!

"Alright, recognizing your world doesn’t use souls as trading units, I’ll provide this Level 5 Energy Core with half its energy, half a kilogram of the Eternal Spring water, and thirty thousand Enchanting Fairies for exchange, how does that sound?"

The value of the Level 5 Energy Core needs no elaboration.

As for the half-kilogram of Eternal Spring water, it can be used as a consumable for temporary enhancement akin to the effect of an Elemental Embodiment on lower beings.

Or attempt summoning communication with the Eternal Spring sovereign.

However, with only half a kilogram, direct communication with the Eternal Spring sovereign may be challenging, though indirect communication with several of its formidable offspring of Level Five and Level Six life forms seems fairly possible.

Yet, in the eyes of Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain, these two items’ value barely exceeded twenty thousand Enchanting Fairies, with the major provision being the thirty thousand Enchanting Fairies — a heartfelt pang accompanying their one-time offer.

Um...

Nonetheless, these Enchanting Fairies held no value for Green.

"Sorry, my world isn’t interested in these lower beings, aside from the exploration of knowledge; other pleasures are mere anecdotes in life’s journey. Perhaps... you could offer items like the extreme ice crystal, which fell in Bone Demon World after the demise of foreign dominators."

Green suggested expectantly.

Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain pondered momentarily before seemingly recalling something; a black-red head-sized bird egg appeared in a caterpillar bone hand.

"A rare bloodline capable of freely transitioning between Fire Element and flesh creatures, possessing rebirth capability after catastrophic attacks; according to Bone Demon World records, it originates from a distant place named Fire Phoenix. If you manage to obtain some of its necessary rebirth origins and revive then devour it, there’s a substantial chance to acquire part of its abilities."

Three Souls Bone-Crusher Chieftain introduced the fire phoenix egg with its unique understanding.

"This..."

Green’s eyes brightened, almost deciding instantly, exclaiming joyfully: "It’s a deal!"

The Ancient Wizarding World once summoned a Phoenix Sovereign to fight against the Ancient Demons of the Abyssal Army; although contact with that mighty world has long been lost, the foundation of the Wizard World assuredly includes a substantial quantity of Phoenix Origin.

Needless to say, Mili, Mina’s family surely conceals Phoenix Origin. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets at ; your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m. for reading.)
