Chapter 1044: Chapter 498: Sea of Domains!?_2
Fang Mu had not recognized what these two things were until now.
Under the exploration of the “Eye of Omniscience,” what was displayed were the embryos of two life forms.
Could it be that the embryos of these two life forms were related to the Outer Realm!?
Fang Mu had once heard Shu Liangjun mention the term “Outer Realm.”
It generally refers to the world on this side of the Sea of Domains.
Crossing over the Sea of Domains would be considered entering the Outer Realm.
...
Human civilization had expanded to the Sea of Domains, but to Fang Mu’s knowledge, the world on the other side of the Sea of Domains seemed unexplored.
However, according to Fang Mu’s understanding of the Beastmaster world, the curiosity of its human inhabitants was no less than that of the humans from Fang Mu’s previous life.
There must have been strong beings who had explored the other end of the Sea of Domains.
But eventually, they encountered insurmountable factors that prevented the exploration from continuing.
Zhang Renbin and Du Yong jumped at the sharp rebuke from Hu Tao.
Especially Zhang Renbin, who hurriedly spoke with a stutter.
“Sir Jianmu, I brought these items from the Outer Realm because I had heard that they could be used to blend Spiritual Liquid.”
“The power behind you possesses a Grandmaster Creator, who could apply these kinds of things.”
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to bring such things before you!”
Hearing this, Fang Mu laughed and said,
“Sister Wan, I wouldn’t use items from the Outer Realm to randomly strengthen my body.”
“I just happened to hear my master express a great interest in these Outer Realm items.”
“The two items you’ve brought should be the embryos of some Outer Domain spirits, right?”
“Could it be that you’ve visited the Sea of Domains over the years?”
“Crossed the Sea of Domains and captured Outer Domain spirits!?”
Fang Mu’s words told Hu Tao there was no need for further discussion, and then he gave Zhang Renbin a calming pill.
He assured Zhang Renbin that there would be no problems in trading such supplies with him.
Then he made it clear to Zhang Renbin that his master was interested in these supplies, so that Zhang Renbin would try to trade more of such resources with him.
Even if Zhang Renbin didn’t have any at the moment, he was asked to find a way to acquire such resources.
Travel groups like these, that roamed far and wide, generally had some channels to procure resources.
Aside from those who had sworn enemies amongst each other, most travel groups were very willing to trade and help each other out.
As the saying goes, having many friends paves many roads, and forces wandering outside highly value this aspect.
By clarifying the origin of these two items, Fang Mu was signaling to Zhang Renbin that he was aware of these things.
Fang Mu brought up the Sea of Domains because he wanted to use his questioning to steer the conversation towards it,
so that he could gain some understanding of the Outer Realm.
Later, Fang Mu would also be able to ask his Dao Protector, Shu Liangjun, for more information about the Outer Realm.
When Zhang Renbin heard Fang Mu say this, he was relieved.
At the same time, he felt overjoyed.

Fang Mu’s master showed interest in these two items, so did that not mean he had done a good deed!?
However, obtaining such things again would not be so simple.
Nevertheless, most forces that acquired such things would process them on the spot.
It was rare, like in Zhang Renbin’s case, to store them as supplies.
“Sir Jianmu, our Ji Feng Travel Group doesn’t have the strength to cross the Sea of Domains!”
“Near the Sea of Domains, there are three great Sacred Sea Clans.”
“These Sacred Sea Clans block Outer Domain spirits from crossing the Sea of Domains, and they also prevent humans from going to the other side of the Sea of Domains.”
“Even those with the strength at the Peak of Order would likely find it difficult to cross the Sea of Domains.”
“Six hundred years ago, Outer Domain creatures tried to cross the Sea of Domains, and a ferocious battle ensued between them and the three Sacred Sea Clans.”
“The battle caused a breach in the Sea-breaking Dam, a Sacred Relic of the Sacred Sea Clans.”
“For some unknown reason, the Sacred Sea Clans did not repair the Sea-breaking Dam.”
“As a result, every now and then, some Outer Domain spirits slip through the breach in the Sea-breaking Dam and drift across the Sea of Domains.”
“These Outer Domain spirits, with their odd appearances, would all transform into such embryos after death.”
“It was discovered that these embryos of Outer Domain spirits could be used to enhance intelligence and eyesight.”
“However, absorbing the energy of these embryos also carries a probability of causing mutations, growing features characteristic of Outer Realm spirits.”
Fang Mu, upon hearing this, roughly understood how Zhang Renbin obtained the embryos of these Outer Realm spirits.
Since these Outer Realm creatures could drift across the Sea of Domains to reach the side of the Human World,
it shouldn’t be too difficult if he himself wished to collect such Outer Realm spirit embryos.
Fang Mu planned to try it out after he finished trading supplies with the Ji Feng Travel Group.
He wanted to see just how beneficial these Outer Realm spirit embryos were for strengthening the Fool’s Shadow.
For some reason, Fang Mu suddenly had a feeling.
Both of his Destiny Guardian Beasts benefited greatly the Blood Race,
leading to a mistaken belief that he was associated with the Saint Heir of the Blood Race.
One was inseparably connected to the Outer Realm spirits.
It was as if he had unwittingly acquired the standard equipment of a villain.
Fang Mu did not linger on the topic of the Sea of Domains, instead, he said indifferently to Zhang Renbin,
“If you obtain embryos of Outer Realm spirits in the future, you can directly bring them to me for trade.”
Among the remaining goods, Fang Mu was quite fond of the seeds of the Lingyao Colorful Lotus and the Evil Soul Coffin, both of which the Ji Feng Travel Group had acquired from the Ancient Battlefield.
Zhang Renbin did not know the effects of the Lingyao Colorful Lotus, only that its seeds required the absorption of a vast amount of Spiritual Energy to sprout.
Spiritual Energy was extremely precious, and Zhang Renbin simply couldn’t afford it!
Even if he could afford it by selling everything he had, Zhang Renbin wouldn’t spend it on something whose powers he couldn’t precisely know.
If these lotus seeds sprouted and the resulting Guardian Beasts weren’t powerful,
wouldn’t he have both lost his wife and his troops!?
He didn’t know the use of these items, but everything from the Ancient Battlefield was very valuable in the eyes of a Grandmaster Creator.
Through the Eye of Omniscience, Fang Mu learned that the flowers of the Lingyao Colorful Lotus had the effect of strengthening the bloodline of Fairy Type Beast Controls.
Items that strengthen the Fairy Bloodline are extremely rare.
Such items, once appearing in the world, would provoke competition among many powers.
The Lingyao Colorful Lotus was considered extremely valuable by Fang Mu because,
it withered and blossomed year after year within the Abdominal Space of the Abdominal Territory Worm, allowing Fang Mu to continually collect its petals.
He could use these petals to cultivate the fairies he had on hand.
After reaching a cooperation with Chonghuaju, Fang Mu would definitely become a major cultivator of fairies!
Apart from the fairies soon to be owned by Fang Mu, the Retrace Sparrow Demon contracted by Hu Tao could also be nurtured with petals of the Lingyao Colorful Lotus.
While Fang Mu examined the Lingyao Colorful Lotus seeds, Zhang Renbin had already finished introducing them.
Due to his lack of knowledge, Zhang Renbin spoke briefly and turned to introduce the Evil Soul Coffin.
“Sir Jianmu, this item is not a spiritual instrument, as it contains no spiritual circuits within,” he said.
“I acquired it in an Ancient Battlefield.”
“I cannot determine whether this object formed naturally, or if it was specially crafted by a Spirit-smithing Master of a previous Epoch.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Mu said nothing further and gestured for Zhang Renbin to continue his introduction.
Fang Mu had nearly made up his mind about the Evil Soul Coffin.
This Evil Soul Coffin indeed was not a spiritual instrument, and it wasn’t like equipment such as the Spirit Capturing Box.
The Evil Soul Coffin had the ability to collect souls within its range, absorbing them and refining them into Souls of Death.
Such an ability was very useful for Fang Mu.
Fang Mu was in urgent need of Souls of Death.
After acquiring the Evil Soul Coffin, Fang Mu handed it over to his powerful subordinates to wield.
He sent them to places where Souls of Life congregated, using the Evil Soul Coffin to refine Souls of Death.
Periodically, this would yield a significant return for Fang Mu.
Besides being able to refine Souls of Life into Souls of Death, the Evil Soul Coffin could also gather the Souls of Death present in the surrounding environment.
Therefore, taking the Evil Soul Coffin to the Ancient Battlefield could yield a huge amount of Souls of Death without doing anything else.
However, doing so would easily attract attention from other powers.
Fang Mu, having visited the Ancient Battlefield, was acutely aware of how common it was to kill and plunder there.
Apart from these twelve items, the subsequent trade in supplies was relatively ordinary.
Fang Mu was very satisfied with the gains he obtained from trading with the Ji Feng Travel Group.
