Mrs. and Mr. Smith - Chapter 516:
Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Officially Entering the Half-Step Martial Marquis
Ethan Smith looked at the man with the mustache, feeling somewhat excited deep down.
But he didn’t show it.
The man with the mustache was so eager to have that bronze mirror. This suggests the mirror must be truly extraordinary.
As for the Demonic Beast Core, it isn’t particularly difficult to find.
Thus, Ethan Smith holds the upper hand.
“Forget about the mirror, but I might consider giving you the two Bronze Plaques,” Ethan Smith said.
The man with the mustache retorted, “I just want the mirror. Who wants your Bronze Plaques?”
“In that case, never mind. I don’t lack a Demonic Beast Core either,” Ethan Smith muttered.
Having said that, he turned around, ready to leave.
The man with the mustache was silently thinking, and then suddenly grabbed Ethan Smith, whispering, “Fine, fine, let’s trade. After all, we must have crossed paths for a reason.”
While speaking, he started to fetch cores out of his Spatial Magic Artifact.
In no time, he pulled out three Demonic Beast Cores and eight thousand-year-old medicinal herbs.
It has to be said, the man with the mustache did not embellish.
He did indeed know the medicinal herbs required for the Reincarnation Pill and the treasures he carried far exceeded imagination.
“Is this okay?” The man with the mustache reluctantly handed over the herbs to Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith smiled and said, “When we divide the treasures later, I’ll give you more.”
“That sounds more reasonable.” The man with the mustache was finally content.
Ethan Smith took his herbs, then took out the two Bronze Plaques and handed them over.
“Alright, it’s time to split the spoils.” The man with the mustache licked his lips while eyeing the surroundings.
At a glance, countless treasures can be seen, including a multitude of magical artifacts and various herbs.
Unfortunately, these herbs have lost their medicinal properties, which means they are of no value to Ethan Smith.
The two went around, each selecting the treasures they desired.
Though greedy, the man with the mustache was extremely selective with his treasures.
Ordinary items had no chance of appealing to him.
Ethan Smith wasn’t in a hurry. He just stood by and silently waited.
Eventually, the man with the mustache picked only three items:
A piece of snow-white Genestone, a divine picture etched on cowhide, and an incense burner.
“Alright, I’m done,” the man with the mustache said, satisfied.
Ethan Smith glanced at the remaining treasures and immediately put all of them into his bag.
“Are you a junk collector?” the man with the mustache couldn’t help but taunt when he saw this.
Ethan Smith rolled his eyes and said, “You wouldn’t understand.”
One day, Ethan Smith may establish his own sect. These treasures would certainly come in handy.
With all this settled, the man with the mustache looked at the Dragon Vein above and softly said, “It’s just a pity that we didn’t have the chance to probe the Bright Energy Grave on the Dragon Vein.”
Ethan Smith looked at him and said, “That doesn’t necessarily have to be the case.”
The man with the mustache sneered, “The people on top belong to the Capital City Martial Arts Association, especially that Emerson Holmes. Who dares to provoke him?”
Having said that, the man with the mustache started to pack his treasures, ready to leave.
“What if I said that I could get rid of them?”
At this moment, the voice of Ethan Smith came from behind.
The man with the mustache stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked with a grin, “Is what my friend said true?”
“Of course,” Ethan Smith nodded.
“But you’ll have to wait for a bit.”
The man with the mustache turned his eyes and said, “No problem. The Master here can accompany you! But I am afraid of death, and I can’t provoke the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”
“It’s okay, you don’t need to show up. You just need to handle the grave-robbing part,” Ethan Smith said.
The man with the mustache quickly nodded and said, “No problem! That is The Master’s responsibility!”
Ethan Smith no longer paid attention to the man with the mustache.
He looked up at the Dragon Vein above and whispered to himself at the bottom of his heart.
“If I’m not mistaken, the Dragon Vein has already started to gather qi.” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
“Not only do I want to obtain the treasures within the Bright Energy Grave, but I also want to absorb all the qi!”
All of this, was in preparation for Ethan Smith’s breakthrough to Martial Marquis.
Subsequently, Ethan Smith moved his mind and took out the Phoenix Tripod gifted by the Pavilion Master.
Then, he placed various materials into this Phoenix Tripod and started to refine the Reincarnation Pill.
There was a hint of nervousness in Ethan Smith’s heart because he did not know whether the five-thousand-year-old herb that had lost its medicinal properties could work or not.
Pill refining is an extremely energy-consuming task, all Ethan Smith’s attention was focused on the pill tripod.
For a time, Ethan Smith could hardly feel anything around him.
At this moment, the man with the mustache was standing in the distance, watching this scene.
“Chaotic body, Purple Spirit Fire, who is this kid exactly?” The man with the mustache murmured deeply.
He stood there, gazing in Ethan Smith’s direction, seemingly lost in thought.
Time flew by.
Under the support of the Purple Spirit Fire, the herbs in the pill furnace turned into a thick juice.
The next step was the formation of the pill.
The formation of the pill is the most important step in the pill-refining process, and the requirement for the mental state is very strict.
But at this moment, Ethan Smith was slightly nervous.
The flame in his palm started to flicker chaotically
This was not a good sign for pill refining.
Ethan Smith took a deep breath, trying hard to adjust his state of mind.
After an unknown amount of time, the flame in Ethan Smith’s palm finally started to slow down and calm down.
“Sss!”
The herbs in the pill furnace started to concentrate!
The dense medicinal juice was forming at this moment!
“Hum!”
With the light illuminating, the juice in the pill furnace formed a round shape!
“Bang!”
There was a loud noise in the pill furnace!
Following that, a pill fell into Ethan Smith’s hand!
This pill was the Reincarnation Pill that Ethan Smith had been striving for!
“I won the bet!” Holding onto this Reincarnation Pill, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but breath a sigh of relief.
Fiddling with the Reincarnation Pill, Ethan Smith muttered, “With this, I can step into the realm of a half-step Martial Marquis.”
He did not waste any time and immediately swallowed the Reincarnation Pill.
For an instant, a mysterious power slowly rippled in Ethan Smith’s dantian!
The realm of the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster began to slowly change.
The qi stored in Ethan Smith’s body, at that moment, broke through the barrier of the Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster, and his realm swiftly rose!
“The Consummate Inner Strength Grandmaster?” The man with the mustache in the distance seemed to have noticed something.
Touching his chin, he muttered, “This kid is either invincible or will have no place to be buried.”
“Hum!”
Ethan Smith’s body was radiating bright light!
His body turned transparent and green again, looking like a jade person from afar!
The light only lasted for a moment before it slowly dissipated.
In just half an hour, Ethan Smith’s body had undergone many transformations.
The spiritual power within his body was also rapidly increasing!
An hour later…
With the ground beneath Ethan Smith as the center, waves of light like ripples suddenly radiated.
The light rippled in all directions and the mountain stone where it passed was instantly sliced off!
