Chapter 1852 - 1848: Chaos Reigns
"Fire Daoist friend, what do you think?" Although Shen Luo was quite tempted, he did not immediately agree and began communicating with Fire Spirit Child through telepathy.
In his view, someone as shrewd as Mi Su, willing to exchange such a large piece of Nine Heavens Gold Essence for the Beiming Giant Scale, obviously had other motives.
"I can’t figure out this matter either, maybe there’s another use for the Beiming Giant Scale. Whether to trade or not is up to you," Fire Spirit Child responded through telepathy.
Shen Luo pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Since Your Excellency is sincere in trading, I would be too insensitive to refuse again. However, the quality of Nine Heavens Gold Essence varies, and since yours is so large, I need to personally inspect it."
"Certainly, Friend Shen, feel free to inspect it." Mi Su hesitated slightly, then threw the Nine Heavens Gold Essence over.
Shen Luo scanned it with his Divine Sense and detected nothing unusual. He swept his sleeve to wrap the Gold Essence, pulled it in front of him, and performed the Three Xiaos Mystic Sound Technique.
A white light composed of countless ripples entered the Nine Heavens Gold Essence to probe its internal condition.
But at that moment, the Nine Heavens Gold Essence suddenly shattered with a "crack", transforming into countless black threads swiftly winding around Shen Luo’s body.
The black threads were glossy and emitted a sealing aura.
The mana fluctuations within Shen Luo’s body quickly dissipated, as did the Demonic Qi, swiftly confined by the black threads, causing the Spiritual Light on his body to rapidly dim.
His expression changed, he tried hard to operate the Huangting Technique and Chiyou Martial Secrets, but to no avail, mana and Demonic Qi continued to rapidly dissipate.
