Tian clan.
On one of the three mountain peaks of the Tian clan, a tall,blood-red tree stood releasing a blood-scented fragrance into the air.
It was Blood Tree.
Gue ze was watching the movement of the leaves, enjoying the smell of blood.
Gue ze walked towards the Tree placed his hands on them and closed his eyes.
The Blood Tree began to shrink and gradually, it disappeared.
Gue ze stored to the blood tree in his core.
Gue Ze opened his eyes reveling crimson red pupils.
"Normally, other cultivators can't store items higher than their cultivation rank but I am an exception, the Blood Tree was developed through Blood Reconstruction, and with the help of my wood and blood path dao marks, I can store it."
In the grand hall, Tian Hong kneeled before his father.
Tian Hong do you know why did I called you here today.
"Father, you must have called me to discuss about the upcoming Dark Arrow Fleet recruitment day."
Tian Ming gave a satisfied look.
"Yes, you are correct, but that's not the only thing, There is something more important."
Tian Hong thought inwardly."what could be more important than recruitment day."
Tian Hong asked this question to his mind many times but only one response came.
"Tian Hong said automatically, 'Gue ze.'"
"You are right son now marks my words in your mind deeply."
As he continued."What's your personal opinion of Gue ze? You've spent some time with him in the Inheritance Cave."
Tian Hong remembered those moments with Gue ze.
"Father, Gue ze acts very mysterious and rash, but each of his movements are well planned, although his acts are evil but he have righteous heart when he killed hunter Hao Jin I saw great ambition in his eyes."
Tian Ming gave a satisfied laughter you."truly deserve to be my son you have good eyes."
"As you said Gue ze have great ambition but he is a true genius aswell he will surely take part in recruitment day and you my son make sure to always stand by his side with him you can develop very well."
"Father your judgement capabilities far exceeded mine this son of your will truly follow Gue ze."
Baek city inner area.
In a shop with a wooden theme and eye-catching paintings hanging on the walls.
Many people with good clothing were roaming everywhere buying and selling items.
Gue Ze was among them.
Gue ze walked towards the counter and saw a beautiful lady sitting there.
"Miss, how is your day going?"
The beautiful lady looked at Gue ze she saw a very manly boy wearing well maintained clothes, eye-catching crimson red pupils, hair reaching the waist and giving her a warm smile.
Gue ze's appearance was handsome enough to make any girl fall in love with him.
"Young master I am having a good day and after seeing you I believe it will be even better tell me how can I help you she said in a seductive voice."
Gue ze continued the flow.
"Miss, it's also my pleasure to meet a beauty like you."
The young beautiful lady face turned slightly red.
"Gue ze with a casual flick of his wrist, placing an impressive array of resources on the counter as the items piled up, the shopkeeper's smile faded, replaced by an astonished stare, Her gaze lingered on the materials betraying both awe and a growing curiosity about the young man who had so casually presented them.
There were approximately 127 Rank 1 blood path, 36 Rank 2 blood path, 132 Rank 1 wood path, and 39 Rank 2 wood path materials produced by the Blood Tree over the span of three years.
The beautiful face turned into shock she had worked in the shop for 4+ years but it was her first time seeing this many items before her.
Although the Blood Tree was a Rank 3 rare wood and blood path, it didn't produce any Rank 3 resources because it was developed through the Blood Reconstruction formation.
This was a misfortune but in misfortune fortune is mixed aswell it didn't produce any rank 3 resources but produced many rank 1 and 2 resources of two path.
The young lady quickly started the calculations measuring value of every resources.
She was very experienced, and in just a short moment, she calculated the value to be 7500 silver tales.
After seeing all those materials her impressions over Gue ze increased even more.
Gue ze took out a list and handed it over to the young lady.
Many materials were listed, and she calculated the total price.
The price of the listed materials reached 8,000 silver tales, but she made an exception and sold them for 7,300 silver tales.
She made this exception not only because Gue ze bought so many materials at once but also because she was deeply impressed and had developed a fondness for him.
This was the manipulative and acting skills of Gue ze earned in his previous life.
Gue ze gave her an attractive glance, waved his hand in the air, and left the shop.
After bidding the shopkeeper farewell, Gue ze entered the refinement hall and booked a room.
The room contained only a cauldron, which looked a bit worn, and the walls were painted black.
Gue ze quickly began refining several Rank 2 artifacts.
He refined artifacts for about an hour before leaving the Refinement Hall.
