341: Chapter 340 Squeezing them clean

"Moro, if you want to buy your life, you'll have to bring out treasures that are enough to move my heart."

As he spoke, Chu Xuan directly spent spirituality value to perform a System authentication.

He took the complete greed tank, along with the 280 liters of Elf Race high-grade life essence inside, and stored it all into the System space.

He ensured the item truly returned to its owner, thereby cutting off any accidental possibility of it being stolen or contested.

"You... you... you..."

Moro screamed in agony, "You despicable human, you are even more contemptible than I am!"

Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged, unmoved by the other's words, except that the power of the Fire of Nirvana increased once more, reaching a consumption rate of 3 points of spirituality value per second.

"I was wrong, I was wrong! I am the most despicable, the filthiest one! My most respected human friend, please spare me..."

Moro shouted repeatedly as he waved the staff in his hand. "I am willing to offer my staff. It allows you to control the magic carpet and can release powerful magical attacks."

Chu Xuan snatched the magic staff away.

Immediately, the System notification appeared in a format that better suited his understanding.

This was a magical tool designed to pair with the flying carpet, capable of controlling it to reach a top speed of 320 kilometers per hour, slightly superior to the tianya square-inch boat.

However, its load-bearing capacity was significantly worse.

In addition, one could use this staff to cast some elemental magic attacks.

However, judging from how the other party could only flee in panic without any ability to fight back when pursued by the four Elves earlier...

The power of these magic attacks was likely limited.

Still, even the smallest bit of meat is still meat. Chu Xuan accepted it directly and put it into his Storage Ring.

"You want to buy your life with this kind of trash? Is your life really that worthless?" Chu Xuan did not let Moro off, and the flames in his palm continued to burn.

"I also have alchemical potions that can enhance the Physique..." Moro waved his hand, and with a clattering sound, twelve glass potions appeared.

Chu Xuan did a simple investigation.

He discovered that these were actually potions capable of increasing basic attributes, and were of considerable value.

Unfortunately, the System indicated that these could only increase attributes up to 60 points. For the current Chu Xuan, they were of no use whatsoever.

"If you plan to keep squeezing things out like toothpaste, I don't mind continuing to wear you down..."

The power of Nirvana spread from Chu Xuan's palm, burning only the sickly green skin around Moro's neck into a charred mess.

On the surface, there seemed to be no serious external injuries.

But at this moment, Moro's health points had dropped by nearly 500, and his spirituality value was being continuously gained by Chu Xuan through the burning process.

"You are too brutal, you can't do this..." Moro pleaded bitterly. "I am just a poor dwarf. As a strong person, how can you bully the weak like this..."

"Since you wanted to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf, you should have been prepared to feed the tiger with your own body. This was your own choice, wasn't it?" Chu Xuan spoke indifferently.

He remained unmoved by Moro's pleas.

If his own strength hadn't been formidable enough, their group would have been wiped out by those Elves just now. In return, Chu Xuan naturally intended to squeeze the other party ruthlessly.

"I... I still have many alchemical treasures and powerful weapons..."

Moro swiped his waist again, and in an instant, all sorts of strange items appeared before Chu Xuan's eyes.

Chu Xuan swept a quick glance over them. These so-called treasures included everything from offensive to defensive types, but to him, their power could only be considered ordinary.

Chu Xuan didn't look closely and took them all.

However, he had only packed half of them when one of his Storage Rings was already stuffed to the brim.

So, Chu Xuan packed the remaining items into another Storage Ring.

After taking everything, Chu Xuan said with a normal expression:

"Moro, you're still being dishonest. If these things were truly powerful, how could you have been hunted down? Just give me that storage pouch on your waist, and this matter will be settled."

Chu Xuan had his eye on the storage pouch at Moro's waist, intending to solve the matter once and for all.

"No! This storage pouch is bound to my life. If I give it to you, I will die immediately! If you want even this, you might as well just kill me..."

Moro was already extremely reluctant to give up his various treasures, and now a look of despair appeared on his pained face:

"I beg you, don't push me any further!"

"I can give you the 'alchemy codex' to help you comprehend alchemical secret arts on your own! Pair it with the [Eye of Resonance]; it contains all of my alchemical insights!"

"These are the crystallization of my knowledge. They can allow you to get started quickly and become a qualified Alchemist. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can even become an alchemy Great Master like me!"

A massive parchment book, nearly half the height of a person, fell onto the ground.

Immediately following it, a stone shaped like an eyeball appeared.

Chu Xuan didn't even look at them, taking them all first.

However, the Fire of Nirvana in his hand still did not dissipate:

"Trivial skills and clever tricks are ultimately a deviation from the true path, unlike my Confucian and Mencian Dao! Wouldn't it be better if I just directly increased my combat power to snatch things? Why waste time learning alchemy..."

Chu Xuan said calmly, "Do you have anything else?"

"These are already everything I can bring out! I've been squeezed dry by you; I have no more treasures left! If you're still not satisfied, then just kill me..." Moro cried out in indignation.

A strange light flashed in Chu Xuan's eyes as he stared straight at Moro, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his mouth:

"Moro, there are a few things I find very strange."

"First of all, why did I easily believe you when you just said that if I killed you, your storage pouch would self-destruct?"

"And also, that this storage pouch is bound to your life and you'd die immediately if you gave it to me... I actually had very little doubt and easily believed such an obviously fake statement."

"You wouldn't happen to possess an ability similar to deception, would you?"

Chu Xuan had naturally observed the other's Master of Deception class through the Eye of Insight. At this moment, he deliberately wore a meaningful smile and said slowly:

"I've decided that I should try killing you anyway, to see if your storage pouch really self-destructs..."

"No!!"

Moro screamed, "You won't gain any benefits by killing me now! How about this... we can cooperate and go to the Holy Mountain together!

The tide has arrived, and all the major races of these Tianxing Mountains will gather there. I can guide you and help you obtain the supreme treasures of the other races!

If you don't believe me, I can honor you as my master and be your servant! We can sign a Soul contract!"
