"This is strange!"

Su Mo frowned, staring at the Dan Immortal Pool.

The Dan Immortal Pool was effective for everyone but him. Was it looking down on him or something?

"I know why!"

Just then, Xiao Lang suddenly stood up and spoke.

Everyone looked at Xiao Lang curiously.

Xiao Lang explained with a smile, "Young Master, I’m not just flattering you, but your physical body and Divine Soul are simply too strong. There’s no room for improvement, which is why the Dan Immortal Pool has no effect on you."

Hearing this, everyone came to a sudden realization.

So that was the reason.

In other words, the quality of the Dan Immortal Pool was too low; it wasn’t worthy of Su Mo.

Shi Lei laughed. "That’s an easy fix. I just need to add some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to the Dan Immortal Pool to upgrade its quality. Then it will be effective for Elder Su."

After speaking, Shi Lei took out a large number of Treasures from his Storage Ring and placed them before the crowd.

Among them were many rare items.

"Look! That Jade Bottle seems to contain the legendary Immortal Treasure Dew."

"Immortal Treasure Dew? What kind of Treasure is that?"

"Hmph, you don’t even know about Immortal Treasure Dew? It’s an essence of heaven and earth that can only be gathered at dawn in a Land of Immortal Spirits."

"It’s not just Immortal Spirit Dew! There’s also Earth Fire Spirit Crystal, Sea Blue Marrow, Silver Moon White Jade Liquid... Heavens, I can’t even count them all."

Seeing the numerous Treasures Shi Lei produced, everyone’s eyes went wide.

This was all incredible stuff.

Worth a fortune!

Even Shen Weiyang and Lu Ya had never heard of some of these Treasures. They were the rarest of the rare.

Liu Wuxie asked, "Brother Shi, how do you have so many Treasures?"

Treasures like Immortal Spirit Dew and Sea Blue Marrow—a single one of them could shake the entire Northern Profound Domain and drive countless powerful experts into a frenzy.

"Well..."

Shi Lei hesitated for a moment before saying, "To be honest, I stole all of this from my dad’s treasury."

Stole?

Everyone was speechless.

They all knew the Shi Family was the wealthiest family in the Northern Profound Domain, but even they couldn’t withstand Shi Lei squandering their fortune like this.

Shi Lei’s heart ached as well.

But to latch onto a powerhouse like Su Mo, he was willing to pay any price.

’In the future, who in the Northern Profound Domain would dare to touch the Shi Family?’

SPLASH!

With great reluctance, Shi Lei tossed all the Treasures into the Dan Immortal Pool, where they dissolved into the water.

Instantly, everyone felt a terrifying energy.

This energy was extremely violent, like an iron hammer repeatedly striking their bodies, forging them like swords.

"Hm? Even my old body is undergoing a change!"

Shen Weiyang said in surprise.

She was, after all, in the Martial Emperor Realm.

Lu Ya chuckled. "We have Shi Lei to thank for this. If he hadn’t produced so many precious Treasures, it probably would have taken us some time to fully solidify our Realms."

Shen Weiyang nodded.

The two of them had just broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm and their cultivation wasn’t yet stable. But after being refined by the Dan Immortal Pool this time, it had completely stabilized.

"Elder Su, what about you?"

Shen Weiyang looked at Su Mo curiously.

Su Mo said, dejected, "It’s still useless!"

"This..."

Shen Weiyang was stunned.

Shi Lei asked hesitantly, "Elder Su, I just threw in more than half of my family’s entire reserves. Are you sure it’s not working?"

Su Mo nodded with certainty.

He had been soaking for so long, yet his physical body and Divine Soul hadn’t changed in the slightest.

"Hmph, I don’t believe it!"

Gritting his teeth, Shi Lei pulled a Jade Bottle from his robes. "Elder Su, this is a supreme Treasure my father spent a countless fortune to acquire. If we add this, it will definitely work on you."

"Oh?"

Su Mo’s eyes lit up.

As everyone watched in anticipation, Shi Lei opened the Jade Bottle. Inside floated a single drop of sticky, black Spiritual Liquid.

"What is that stuff? It looks disgusting!"

Bai Luoxue said with disgust.

Shi Lei said with cold arrogance, "Disgusting? Heh, this is Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid. A single drop is enough to buy half of your Luoxue Kingdom."

"Sorry, but I’ve never heard of it!"

Bai Luoxue said, shaking her head.

A mere drop of Spiritual Liquid, even an Immortal Liquid from the Nine Heavens, couldn’t possibly be worth half of their Luoxue Kingdom.

After all, the Luoxue Kingdom was the largest nation in the Northern Profound Domain, possessing nearly a thousand cities.

’Shi Lei is exaggerating way too much.’

However...

Shen Weiyang stopped her. "Luoxue, Shi Lei isn’t wrong this time. That thing really could buy half of the Luoxue Kingdom."

"What?"

Bai Luoxue’s face was filled with shock.

Shen Weiyang continued, "Besides expelling the impurities from a Martial Artist’s body, this item also has the effect of strengthening the physical body. Legend even says it can resurrect the dead from white bones. It can indeed buy half of the Luoxue Kingdom."

Hiss...

Bai Luoxue gasped, completely stunned.

Shi Lei said proudly, "Fairy Bai, I know you look down on me in your heart, thinking I’m just some uncultured nouveau riche. But this thing... Forget it. Let the facts speak for themselves."

With that, Shi Lei poured the Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid into the Dan Immortal Pool.

SPLASH!

A surging energy, several times more violent than before, churned within the Dan Immortal Pool, cleansing the impurities from everyone’s bodies.

"How is the effect?"

Shi Lei asked with a smile.

Bai Luoxue said in pleasant surprise, "This item is truly precious! My Cold Ice Spiritual Body is undergoing a massive transformation, becoming purer and purer."

"Brother Shi, now that you’ve contributed such a precious Treasure, won’t your father beat you to death?"

Hua Tianmen asked worriedly.

Shi Lei took a deep breath. "To be honest, my father might very well beat me to death, or cripple me and kick me out of the family."

"Then why did you..."

Hua Tianmen’s face was full of confusion.

Shi Lei’s heart was bleeding, but on the surface, he chuckled and said, "It’s fine. As long as I can make friends with all of you, I’ll accept it even if my dad really does beat me to death."

He originally hadn’t planned on taking out the Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid.

This thing was too precious.

If his father came to settle the score, he had planned to return it to him to quell his anger.

But to curry favor with Su Mo, he had gone all out.

Hua Tianmen was speechless.

He knew Shi Lei was doing this to get in Su Mo’s good graces, but the price was just too high. An ordinary person could never afford it.

"Heh, it’s just one drop of Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid. Would your father really kill you over it?"

The Evil King said with a laugh.

Shi Lei moved closer to the Evil King and said, "Senior Evil King, you may not know, but this Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid..."

"What did you say? That I wouldn’t know?"

The Evil King sneered. "I might not know about other supreme Treasures, but this stuff is common goods in my eyes. I’ve personally consumed several drops, all of them gifts from Lord Su."

"What?"

Shi Lei looked at Su Mo in astonishment. "Elder Su, did you really..."

Su Mo nodded, then with a flip of his hand, he produced a wine-bottle-sized Jade Bottle from his Storage Ring, completely filled with the dark Spiritual Liquid.

"Is that... Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid?"

Bai Luoxue asked in astonishment.

Hua Tianmen affirmed, "It’s identical to the Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid that Shi Lei just took out. There’s no mistaking it!"

In an instant, everyone was so shocked their jaws dropped.

SPLASH!

Without a moment’s hesitation, Su Mo poured in more than half of the bottle.

Shi Lei cried out in alarm, "Elder Su, you... what are you doing?"
