Chapter 158 - 158 158 Opening the Coffin for Treasure

158: Chapter 158: Opening the Coffin for Treasure 158: Chapter 158: Opening the Coffin for Treasure Su Ran was greatly alarmed and desperately held onto his Illusion Demon black robe, refusing to yield.

Are you kidding?

Just because I am a grown man, why should I ruin my reputation with you?

Did you think I was a naive youngster, foolishly baring my waist for your viewing pleasure?

“Lord Yin Si, I protest!” Su Ran shouted, “It’s not proper for men to have such intimate contact!

I hope you understand.”

Yin Si in the black robe paused, realizing that his actions were over the top.

He released his hold on Su Ran’s black robe, regretfully glanced at Su Ran’s waist, then said, “All right.

What do you need?

Speak.”

“Stay there a moment, Lord Yin Si.” Su Ran turned his back to Yin Si and, avoiding the merchant’s hawk-like gaze, pulled out a high-level coffin from his waist and placed it in front of Yin Si in the black robe.

“Huh?”

Yin Si in the black robe was curious.

What kind of valuable thing would be placed in such an unlucky object?

A corpse?

Clothing?

An urn?

Yin Si in the black robe jumped down from his own coffin, grabbed the lid of the coffin, applied a little force, and opened it.

The moment Yin Si opened the coffin, a strong black smoke shot up into the sky, turning into a black fog that filled the interior space of the room.

The light in the room was blocked by the black fog, causing it to darken abruptly.

“What is this?”

Yin Si in the black robe was taken by surprise, his face grave.

Just then, he had smelled the scent of a demon!

When the black fog dissipated completely, the contents of the coffin were fully exposed.

It held a pale-faced child, unconscious with no sign of life, except for the heart still forcefully beating.

“Skeleton,” Yin Si in the black robe turned his gaze to Su Ran and with a sigh, said, “If I’m not mistaken, that beating object is a demon heart, right?”

Seeing Su Ran nod, Yin Si continued, “However, its rhythm is irregular, and the host’s clothes are in tatters, and he’s on the verge of death.

It’s clear that he was fatally injured.”

Su Ran nodded again, there was no need to hide this.

His goal in coming here was to find a cure for the little beggar.

“Skeleton, should I say you’re lucky or unlucky?” Yin Si in the black robe looked at Su Ran and chuckled.

“Lord Yin Si, what do you mean by that?” Seeing Yin Si smile, Su Ran’s lifted heart sank back down.

“Recently, I’ve been a little short on cash.

Even speaking seems powerless.” Yin Si’s tone changed instantly, revealing his greedy nature.

“We’re both well-acquainted, don’t you think?”

Su Ran silently watched Yin Si twirling his fingers in a money-counting motion, knowing full well that his old habit was acting up.

Su Ran sighed, turned his back to Yin Si, and pulled out an Underworld Coin to hand over.

“Oh?

Did you get another Underworld Coin?

Skeleton, your harvest has been considerable!

As per the usual rules, five Underworld Coins, or no deal!” Yin Si in the black robe looked at Su Ran and chuckled.

Su Ran looked speechlessly at the rogue merchant.

He really had a big mouth, asking for such a high price!

With over eight hundred Underworld Coins in his possession, he didn’t really mind these five.

He pretended to ponder for a while, and when Yin Si was about to become impatient, he pulled out four more Underworld Coins and handed them over reluctantly, saying, “Previously, I could get answers just by handing over a single zombie hat.

Why are you pricing things outright now?”

“Prices are rising, it’s natural.” Yin Si in the black robe took the Underworld Coins and chuckled, “Seeing how securely you’ve covered yourself with the black robe, I knew you had something good!”

“I was just bluffing you, didn’t expect you actually had something.

Skeleton, I’ll tell you the truth, I was planning to charge you only one Underworld Coin, but not taking more would not be respectful.” Yin Si was in a good mood and deliberately tried to provoke Su Ran.

Su Ran suffered a headache and rubbed his forehead, looking speechlessly at the rogue merchant.

“Taking someone’s money means doing the work.

Skeleton, listen well.” Yin Si in the black robe spoke in a low voice, his speech slow.

“The child in the coffin is already dead.

But, the demon heart still sustains his life, which is strange.

One thing is certain, you need to deal with the demon heart to turn this child into a demon!”

“Legend has it that there is a pool of demon blood in the demon realm.

If you soak him in it, he will certainly turn into a demon!

If this child could have such an opportunity, then his life is indeed bound to be extraordinary!

Skeleton, since you’ve given me a lot of Underworld Coins, I want to advise you to think thrice before you act!

After this child becomes a demon, the demon will be born from the heart and transform into the demon form.

The pride of a demon will not allow it to submit to a lowly undead skeleton.

When the time comes, I’m afraid you won’t be able to control him!”

Su Ran was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head, his eyes resolute, “This child had a miserable start.

His life must be saved.

If there is a chance to keep him alive, whether the egg turns into a demon or becomes prestigious, whether he stays or leaves, let him decide.”

Gently closing the coffin lid, Su Ran stashed it back into his waist.

He then took out another object and handed it to Yin Si in the black robe.

“Lord Yin Si, would you please take a look at this and tell me how to use it?”

“Skeleton, you really do have a lot of treasures.” Yin Si in the black robe looked at the item in Su Ran’s hand and continued, “This is a high-level Fire Origin Stone.

It is one of the miraculous objects for evolution.

Since I’m happy today, I’ll waive your fees!”

“A high-level Fire Origin Stone must be melted into a Fire Origin Heart before it can be used,” Yin Si held the Fire Origin Stone in his hand, examining it from all angles.

“This Fire Origin Stone has absorbed quite a bit of fire element.

Skeleton, you need to find a volcano and burn this stone at high temperatures until it melts into a Fire Origin Heart before you can use it.”

“By the way, when the Fire Origin Stone melts into a heart, it has to be placed together with the pet to be evolved so as to match.

At that time, the chances of successful evolution will greatly increase.”

So that’s how it worked!

No wonder during the Lava Tribe Raid, that Double-headed Fire Dragon was lingering in that volcano.

Once Su Ran dug up the high-level Fire Origin Stone, that Double-headed Fire Dragon went crazy looking for this stone.

That was the reason.

As for a place with a volcano, should he go to the Lava Tribe Raid again?

Forget it, the blacksmith in the raid might flay him alive!

Right, the Desert of Death, the Illusion Spirit Realm!

The Illusion Spirit Realm, where he acquired the precious Illusion Demon Stele, this place, was surely workable!

The path of evolution for his secondary persona- the Lava Bone Wolf, was right before his eyes!

Su Ran didn’t have much time.

After bidding farewell to the rogue merchant Yin Si, he went to the altar of his territory.

Above the altar, the Beast King’s Coffin was still floating there, an intimidating aura emanating from it from time to time, forbidding anyone to approach.

After arriving at the altar, Su Ran reached into his pocket and pulled out a Pure Gold Secret Coffin that he had just obtained from the Demon Tower.

The texture of the coffin reassured him that the treasure inside wouldn’t be lousy!

Holding his breath, Su Ran put his fingers on the coffin lid and slowly opened it.
