Chapter 49 White Flame Earrings
"so?"

"If the Blue Demon refers to the powerful figure Changfeng encountered at the machine factory, then it is me."

"Alright, mission accomplished!"

Yin Ji smiled brightly, stretched casually, revealing her perfect curves, picked up the large bag on her back, and continued, "Did you get anything good? If so, you can trade with me."

A deal?
Ye Mingqiu instinctively wanted to take out the Blood Butcher's Notes from his storage space, but ultimately gave up. He had more than one chance to make a deal, and it would be too cruel to trade with her using the notes.

It's the world's fault
"Money, is that okay?"

"Sorry, I don't need the money."

Yin Ji shrugged, but then smiled mischievously and said, "However, in light of the photo from earlier, I can sell you something good at a low price that you can use when you're looking for the Crimson Hermit."

White Flame Earrings

Rank: First Rank

Quality: Bronze

Type: jewelry

Equipment effect: Spirit +2, Agility +1
Additional skill: Energy Perception
Skill effect: Consumes 10 points of spiritual energy to activate a wide-range spiritual energy perception, which can sense the magnitude of energy fluctuations on surrounding targets. The higher the spiritual energy, the more obvious the perception.

It's a detection device!

Ye Mingqiu's eyes lit up. This was a good thing. Early detection abilities were hard to come by. Although he could learn detection techniques through general skills later, Ye Mingqiu didn't want to waste his general skill slot.

He prefers to learn combat skills rather than detection skills. Anything that can improve his strength is what he likes. As for detection abilities, he'll leave that to his equipment.

However, this equipment skill is rather mediocre. It can only sense energy intensity and cannot specifically sense attributes, which is far inferior to detection techniques. However, since this skill is for group detection, it is not unacceptable.

After all, this is the early stage. How strong can you expect a bronze-level equipment to be? The effect of just improving basic attributes is already quite good.

"how much is it?"

"One million, no bargaining."

"make a deal."

Ye Mingqiu readily paid the money. In any case, he couldn't take the currency out of this world anyway, so using it to buy bronze-level equipment was a huge profit.

After taking the White Flame Earring from Yin Ji, Ye Mingqiu chose to wear it directly. The increase of 1 point in Agility and 2 points in Spirit made him feel great. His body felt lighter and his spirit was more abundant.

"By the way, you're from the Pure Flame Society, so you should be in charge of missions related to the Crimson Shadows, right? Is there any hunting down of the Crimson Shadows that I can help you with?"

"why?"

"Because I like fighting."

One day later, inside the unfinished building

The blood spear pierced the Crimson Hermit's throat once more, and the dead Crimson Hermit turned into black fragments scattered all over the ground.

"What a monster."

Silver Princess murmured numbly. There were thirty-seven Crimson Hermits inside the abandoned building, but they were powerless against the heavily armored man wielding a blood spear, being hunted down one-sidedly like ordinary people encountering Crimson Hermits.

Actually, this was an accident. The information from the Pure Flame Society said that there were only three Crimson Hermits here, but in fact there were thirty-seven. Perhaps something happened within the Crimson Hermits, causing a large number of them to gather.

Yin Ji walked through the unfinished building, carefully observing the details of the interior layout. Then she said, "The blood energy reaction is abnormal. It is suspected that a higher-level Crimson Hermit has appeared here. Be careful. The other party's aura has not completely disappeared. They may not have gone far yet."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu nodded and asked, "Approximately in which direction is it, and how far away is it?"

Could it be that he's planning to chase after them?
Yin Ji's eyes flickered as she replied, "Northwest. The distance is uncertain, but the level is at least S-rank or higher. It's not something these small fry can compare to. Don't let your guard down."

"Ah."

Ye Mingqiu responded.

During this period of battle, he also asked Yin Ji some questions about the ranking of Red Hidden Ones in this world. Ordinary Red Hidden Ones are ranked B, weak Red Hidden Ones are ranked C, extremely weak ones are ranked D, and powerful Red Hidden Ones are ranked A.

S-rank Red Hidden Ones are beings so strong that they seem to belong to a completely different species from ordinary Red Hidden Ones. They possess exceptionally powerful strength and are characterized by the following features.

① It possesses incredibly strong vitality; even if its skull is shattered or its heart is pierced, it will not die and can even recover from its injuries in a short period of time.

② Skin color: The skin of S-rank Crimson Shadows is closer to black than the crimson muscles of ordinary Crimson Shadows. Their skin will appear as a dark brown like solidified magma, and at the same time, it will emit a scarlet glow.

③ Blood Energy Utilization: S-rank Crimson Shadows can actively utilize blood energy to a certain extent, manifesting in various forms, such as constructing weapons for attack, forming energy armor, or creating energy projectiles or other types. In short, the types are quite diverse.

An S-rank Crimson Hermit is on a completely different level from an ordinary Crimson Hermit.

Ye Mingqiu turned his gaze to the northwest. The blood spear seemed to be pulsating with life. A crimson power flowed from Ye Mingqiu's arm, which was gripping the blood spear, into his body, giving off a refreshing feeling.

[Note: The Blood Spear has replenished you with pure life energy, increasing your maximum health by 20]

Life: 904
With his maximum lifespan increased again, Ye Mingqiu's strength also increased. Although ordinary Crimson Hermits contain less boiling blood and blood energy, they can still improve some attributes after being refined by the Blood Spear.

Furthermore, the attack power of the Blood Spear itself has increased by 2 points, making it even more powerful.

Although the descriptions in the Spirit Realm state that the Blood Spear can only be enhanced and its attributes strengthened through Blood Crystals, this is not actually the case. Perhaps it is because the Crimson Hermits of this world also possess blood-based energy, and the power of Boiling Blood Source Blood belongs to the lower level of Blood Crystals, so the Blood Spear can strengthen itself by absorbing its energy.

Inside the unfinished building, a chilling wind blew. Ye Mingqiu used his 20-point spirit power and the White Flame Earring to probe, and the world before him suddenly changed.

He felt as if he had opened a second pair of eyes, gaining the ability to observe energy. The traces of crimson energy were incredibly clear in his second field of vision, and he followed the direction Silver Princess pointed to, looking northwest, and spotted a cluster of blood energy not far away.

The energy was enormous, far exceeding that of ordinary Crimson Hermits, but Ye Mingqiu did not back down; instead, he revealed a look of great interest.

He asked, "Hey, Silver Princess, if I can kill the S-rank Crimson Hermit, will you be my referrer and help me join the Pure Flame Society?"

"of course."

Yin Ji gave an affirmative answer.

Throughout the battles, she gradually came to understand this man. He was a battle maniac, craving combat and intense battles. Fighting ordinary Crimson Shadows could not satisfy his desires, and he had asked more than once if there were any missions related to S-rank Crimson Shadows.

This guy... he really only wants to fight. He probably joined the Pure Flame Society just to get information about the Crimson Hidden Ones so he can keep fighting at an even higher intensity.
