Chapter 75 Blood Fungus and Magic Tool
The old man took the money, nodded, and continued smoking while selling his calligraphy.
William felt the magic money against his palms and could barely contain his excitement. With these two sets of Emperor’s magic money, he could easily break the killing formation in Ivory Dragon Cove!
Nonetheless, he made sure to keep a calm expression and continued to walk around. When he arrived at the end of the market, he turned back and took another path.
He stopped when he was in the middle of the midnight bazaar.
He noticed a piece of white paper on a rather shabby–looking table. The paper held three dry, reddish- brown herbs with a strange scent that looked like Ganoderma but were much smaller than that.
He
ivated the third eye and saw that these herbs emitted a faint red light. His heart skipped a beat as he slowly picked them up to examine and smell them. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Blood fungus!” His heart raced with excitement. This medicine was a treasure with extremely potent effects, so how could it appear here?
Then, he asked deliberately, “Boss, is this Ganoderma?”
The boss was a middle–aged man with wrinkles wearing a black jacket. He said, “This is our family’s treasure. My ancestor was a divine doctor who had successfully cured the emperor’s illness.”
If it were someone else, they would think the middle–aged man was bragging. However, William knew better. If the ancestor was not a divine doctor, how could he have obtained this blood fungus?
Nevertheless, he said, “Boss, it’s just ordinary Ganoderma. The quality is average. What’s your price?”
The middle–aged man thought for a moment and replied, “10 thousand each. 30 thousand if you’re taking all three.”
William frowned. I’m pretty sure wild Ganoderma isn’t that expensive…”
The middle–aged man insisted, “It’s a fixed price.”
William shook his head. “All right. I’ll buy it.”
Then, he swiftly paid thirty thousand via Apple Pay and wasted no time in ordering his bodyguard to keep the blood fungus.
Just as he was about to leave, a man suddenly rushed over and stared at the middle–aged man. “Where’s your Ganoderma?”
The middle–aged man pointed at William. “You’re too late. I sold it to him for 30 thousand.”
The man frowned and sized William up. “Hi, can you sell these Ganoderma to me?”
William found the man’s behavior odd. Did this person recognize the blood fungus? Regardless, he wasn’t going to part with it. So, he immediately shook his head. “Sorry. It’s not for sale.”
The man coughed and explained, “I’m a local. I need the Ganoderma to save someone. C’mon, help a

William sneered, Local? Are you trying to threaten me? He said coldly, “I already said it’s not for sale.
The man’s face darkened. “Kid, do you know who I am?”
William replied calmly, “Who you are has nothing to do with me. Get lost!”

A man snorted disdainfully when he saw that there was a large number of people accompanying William. “Jusi you wait!” Then, he walked away in a huff.
William spent the remaining hour wandering around the entire midnight bazaar and found that the antiques, calligraphy, and paintings were all fake. Moreover, the majority of the medicinal herbs sold were
also fake.
Just as he was about to leave, he stopped at a booth selling bronze swords. Over a dozen bronze swords covered in rust were displayed on a table. Yet, to his surprise, one of them was in perfect condition. It had a clear dragon pattern on the blade, and the hilt was made of black jade.
At the sight of the sword, William felt that it was definitely not your ordinary blade. So, when he activated the third eye, he wasn’t astonished when he saw that the sword was constantly emitting invisible sword energy, which was about half a meter long and resembled lightning!
“What kind of sword is this? It has such powerful energy!” He was surprised.
Well, that didn’t matter. The only thing that mattered was that he knew that the sword was remarkable, so he asked, “Boss, what’s your price for this sword?”
The boss was a middle–aged chubby man. He smiled and said, “You have a good eye, my friend. This is a famous sword from the Warring States period, and it was crafted by a master swordsmith. If I didn’t need the money, I wouldn’t ever consider parting with it.”
William didn’t believe him and asked, “Well?”
“15 thousand,” the man replied with a cheeky wink.
William frowned and bargained, “15 thousand is too expensive. I’ll take it for 4,500”
The man shouted, “Friend, I asked for 15 thousand, and you’re offering only 4,500? That’s outrageous! Let’s compromise. I’ll give it to you for 12 thousand.”
6,000. I can’t go any higher,” William said resolutely.
The vendor shook his head and said with a bitter smile, “6 thousand is too low. How about 10 thousand? That’s my bottom line, and I can’t go any lower.”
Their bargain went back and forth for a while before they finally settled on a price of eight thousand five.
William decided to leave the midnight bazaar after purchasing the bronze sword. Alas, as soon as they stepped out of the entrance, they found five people standing by the door, clearly lying in wait for them. The man who had approached William earlier to buy the blood fungus was among them.
When they saw each other, these five people surrounded them, and the man sneered. “Kid, give me that Ganoderma, and I’ll let you go. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave today.”
“Are you trying to rob us? William raised his eyebrows.

The man snorted disdainfully. “Sure, you can think of it as robbery. Hurry up. My patience is running
thin.”
Slap!
William slapped the man, sending him flying several meters away. The man fell to the ground and lost consciousness. How could he withstand such a slap with only a Strength Realm cultivation?
The other four were startled. They hesitated for a moment and then rushed over.
This time, before William could act, Jason jumped out and knocked all four of them down with one punch.
William shook his head and said, “How dare you rob us with such mediocre skills! Idiots!”
Since those five lackeys were such small fries, William merely walked past their unconscious bodies. Then, William and his entourage got into the car and returned to the hotel.
On the way. Tia asked, “William, you seemed quite happy when you bought those magic money. Are they worth a lot?”
William replied, “Indeed. Unfortunately, they are very rare and can be used to set up formations.”
Then, he asked Tia to take off a red rope bracelet and place a set of Emperor’s magic money on it, saying. “Wear
is with you from now on. It can ward off evil and protect you from harm.”
Tia smiled and put the bracelet back on her wrist, which now had five bronze coins hanging on it. It looked mismatched, but she didn’t mind.
William then took out the sword and carefully observed it as he placed it against his palm. When the palm of his hand touched the sword, he could feel the intense energy of thunder and lightning hidden within it, but he had no idea how to unleash it.
It was clear that this sword was a magical tool, and he would need to reach Divine Realm before he could fully unleash its power.
He handed the sword to Scarlet and said, “Scarlet, please keep this sword for me for the time being.”
She took the sword and tried it out while saying, “This is a great sword! It seems different from my own.”
The group returned to the hotel and rested separately.
William practiced his Qi and meditated, trying to open up the secondary meridians. Therefore, although it was already slightly past 1.00AM, he still went to the nearby park to practice the Holy Fist of the Five Dragons.
His Holy Fist of th
Five Dragons was about to reach minor mastery, and he decided to strive to master it today so that he could unleash its true power.
He had been practicing in the park for two hours when he suddenly felt the power in his legs become unblocked. It was then that his limbs became as agile as four dragons, striking wherever he pointed.
The Holy Fist of the Five Dragons finally reached minor mastery, so he was in a fantastic mood. He could barely contain his glee. Eventually, he decided to let it all out with a shout. His clear voice echoed for dozens of kilometers, startling countless birds.

As the sky brightened, he returned to the hotel to freshen up. After that, he went to the restaurant with Tia and a few others for breakfast. Before they could finish their meal, a man walked over to them, bowed to William, and said. “Mr. Barrett, I was sent by Master Tristan to serve you. Unfortunately, I come bearing bad news. There are some people clamoring in search of you. Judging from their appearance, it doesn’t seem as though they’re here for a friendly chat.”
William was surprised. Who could it possibly be? He tilted his head in confusion as he tried to come up with a possible candidate before giving up and instructing “Let them in.”
