CHAPTER 26: SNOW FRUIT

" What does it look like "Jia said with a casual look.

The war machine erupted with power.

[Ding! Subordinate Zi has leveled up + 2] The system announced.

" Thank you, master, "The war machine said kowtowing.

Jia rolled her eyes and ruffled its hair.

" Why are you treating a machine like a child? "

Damon asked.

"Don't be jealous" Jia retorted.

" Little girl, little girl, "Damon said with a dark smile.

"How'd you get your hands on that "Femzi asked.

" Why are you so fussy about an ordinary pill "Jia asked with a frown.

" You don't get it. Pills are kind of rare in this place. Only the aristocratic families have access to it. It's quite expensive " Femzi explained at length with a sigh.

"Damon. Aren't I spectacular" Jia asked Damon taunting him

"Narcissist" Damon replied

Jia rolled her eyes

"Will you be our chief pill master?" Femzi asked

"You will only be second to me in this place," Femzi said

"I hate being second," Jia said with a frown

"You dimwit, do it. " Damon cursed.

"But I'll do it," Jia said smiling.

"In two days, I'll have a pill hall prepared for you," Femzi said disappearing.

Jia smiled with a dreamy look.

"Damon, who are you," Jia asked.

"I am who you know me as" Damon answered with a smile.

Jia snorted coldly.

"You're supposed to be a demon. How would you become the god of death" Jia asked thinking deeply. She looked like a scholar.

"Yeah. Anything could happen" Damon replied lazily.

"Zi, go to the Petrova dungeon and get me the eye of the ripper," Jia said wanting to test its strength.

"Yes master" Zi replied and disappeared.

"Do you want to get him killed?" Damon screamed.

Jia shrugged nonchalantly and brought out the alchemy book.

"Hmmm? I'm going to make a spiritual energy pill" Jia said with a smile.

The spiritual energy pill could restore a cultivator's spiritual energy during a battle.

She tapped a few things on her linker

"Northern wasteland. This seems like an adventure" Jia said.

She told Femzi that she'll be leaving for a few days.

Jia decided to go at full speed. After all, the faster, the better

"Northern wasteland? This is a snow world!" Jia exclaimed surveying the perimeter.

"Home, sweet home," Damon remarked.

"What did you just say?" Jia asked with a complicated look.

"Nothing" Damon replied curtly.

Jia inhaled deeply.

"What is this place?" Jia blurted out observing the Qi concentration to be higher.

"Northern wasteland" Damon replied.

For a few miles, the pure white snow was dyed red with blood.

"I could find a blood lotus here," Jia said walking farther.

A pearly white flower stood proudly amidst the bloody red snow.

"It is it" Jia exclaimed happily.

"This doesn't seem right," Jia thought with a frown.

She tried to pluck a petal.

Jia was thrown away by an invisible force. She spat out some blood.

"Little girl, use your mental energy," Damon said sadly after seeing that she had been beaten up several times.

Her face looked deathly white, and her crimson-red blood trickled down her chin.

Jia sat down to concentrate and used her mental energy to attack the barrier.

"BOOM!"

A loud explosion boomed.

Jia could finally have the blood lotus. She took all five petals of the lotus.

"Thank you," Jia said blood still dripping from her mouth.

"You look creepy " Damon commented.

Jia sat on the floor for a while so her wounds could heal.

"Girl, do not fall asleep" Damon warned sternly.

AN HOUR LATER

Jia stood up by herself. Her blood no longer trickled down her face.

Jia took a deep breath before continuing.

She clutched her saber tightly. Its sharp blade shone brightly.

"One down, six to go," Jia said with a faint smile.

An earthquake shook the whole place out of nowhere.

Jia was thrown away.

"Damn you" Jia muttered gritting her teeth.

A huge snow monster rose and roared.

It looked around for a while and left in another direction.

Jia exhaled and continued to move. She saw a dark cave with a blood-red light.

"I may find the Snow fruit here, "Jia said entering the cave.

It was a beautiful cave with sharp spikes.

" Little girl, be careful "Damon warned again.

Jia continued deeper into the cave.

Wherever a snow fruit was, you would find a spirit moonflower

Jia's eyes lit up on seeing the snow fruit and the spirit moonflower.

" Today seems to be good," Jia said sighing.
