Bai Cangshu just looked at Heart Demon and did not respond.
Hunting Zhi Qiang Zhe?
Although he didn't know the Heart Demon's specific strength, the Space listed her alongside Moon Demon and Flame Demon, so she was likely a Reincarnator of the same tier.
A "Strong" tier Reincarnator claiming to hunt a Zhi Qiang Zhe could only be considered a ridiculous joke.
Even without witnessing a Zhi Qiang Zhe's attack, Bai Cangshu had seen Jie Bo, who claimed to be a follower of Terminus Great Sun, use that special ability in The Boys World.
The dark great sun descended, nearly destroying everything, and the physically powerful Homelander was almost cursed to death on the spot.
That was the effect when used by a "Parallel" tier Reincarnator; if a Zhi Qiang Zhe used it personally, Bai Cangshu couldn't imagine the scale and destructive power of that move.
In fact, he had always been somewhat curious about the extent to which the top-tier Reincarnators in the Space could go at the current stage.
Based on the swordplay he saw Li Qingzi use at full power, a sword-style Reincarnator with top-tier destructive capability in the "Strong" tier could already easily destroy city blocks; given enough time and lacking targeted countermeasures, she should also be able to cause paralyzing damage to large cities.
And purely based on destructive capability, those with the strongest terrain destruction would undoubtedly be spellcasters, or elemental dominators, such as Natural Demon Fruit Ability Users.
Bai Cangshu guessed that "Fierce" tier Reincarnators could probably achieve city destruction.
Currently, in the Space, the Four Demons are only considered capable of quickly advancing to Title-level Reincarnators because of their rapid rise and exceptional combat power, so Title-level Reincarnators most likely possess "Fierce" tier combat power.
Based on this, a Zhi Qiang Zhe, conservatively estimated, would already be of "Crazy" tier strength; considering that "Fierce" tier Reincarnators can achieve city destruction, a Zhi Qiang Zhe should possess the ability to cause devastating destruction to small nations.
The previously received information that Terminus Great Sun was to establish End Empire on the ocean also confirmed this; he was not afraid to challenge the order of the real world.
"Alright, I admit, the Zhi Qiang Zhe is currently a bit stronger than us, but we can first eliminate his followers~"
"I know, Jie Bo was killed by you, Tao Bai Bai. See, you actually did that before me. You truly are the person I acknowledge."
In the Woman's childish voice, there was also an undisguised arrogance, that self-centered mindset with which Bai Cangshu was already quite familiar.
Bai Cangshu turned around; although he had cooperated with Black Butler several times, he wouldn't openly discuss hunting Zhi Qiang Zhe's followers in front of him.
Bai Cangshu came to Li Qingzi's side and checked the quotes he received from the stall. Most were in the form of special points + dimensional points. Perhaps because he had just put items up for sale, he hadn't yet received a price that satisfied him.
For such popular items, he needed to wait for the information to spread so that large teams could come with suitable resources.
Also, information brokers like Black Butler would have time to scour for what Bai Cangshu wanted.
These brokers, in a sense, played a very important role in transactions. To facilitate deals and gain benefits, they would go to great lengths to investigate the resources possessed by both Reincarnators, as well as the resources they desired, and would even infer the opponent's preferred ability composition based on their combat style.
This kind of "attentive" service often indeed helped Reincarnators who only excelled in combat to quickly obtain what they wanted.
Bai Cangshu was preparing to return to the real world to continue perfecting his "Paradise," but at this moment, he received a new offer.
"HX77754611 (Night Midnight) sent an offer: Secret Manual Ice Heart Incantation (B+), in exchange for the item in your stall, Drop Card (Nakime)"
And the girl's voice continued to appear in his ear.
"I know, that Woman Luo Xi gave you Wind God Kick, and you got Killing Intent Ripple from Roseate Tiger. This Ice Heart Incantation, isn't it most suitable for you?"
Bai Cangshu turned his head and said directly,
"Night Midnight? I didn't expect Heart Demon's code name to not be Heart Demon..."
Black Butler and Li Qingzi, hearing Tao Bai Bai speak, suddenly realized that Heart Demon was nearby. Li Qingzi wasn't surprised because Heart Demon had approached her before, but Black Butler's expression changed dramatically, showing a rare hint of panic as he looked around.
Heart Demon, whose code name was Night Midnight, knew that Tao Bai Bai deliberately revealed her code name and presence, just as she deliberately revealed that she knew about his dealings with Luo Xi and Roseate Tiger.
She wasn't worried either. She wasn't one of those who obsessed over reputation; a code name could be changed at any time. And seeing the fear of the somewhat famous broker, Black Butler, at this moment, she was very satisfied.
"Besides those idiots, in this day and age, who still talks about demons and gods, huh~"
The Woman's mocking voice simultaneously reached Black Butler and Li Qingzi, causing Li Qingzi's expression beneath her mask to subtly change, though she did not retort.
She also saw the newly appeared offer and looked back at Bai Cangshu.
Bai Cangshu, meanwhile, took the blue Drop Card of Nakime from the stall, letting it float in his palm, and looked at the petite Woman.
"Miss Heart Demon, who is not an idiot, do you want this Drop Card because you have mastered a method of designated extraction?"
"Drop Card of Nakime, the Biwa Demon (Blue)" - if this item couldn't yield Nakime's bloodline ability, its value would be almost negligible.
But Heart Demon specifically offered something like Ice Heart Incantation, clearly determined to get this Drop Card, which is why Bai Cangshu asked if she had mastered a way to extract specific drops.
The Woman's lips curved into a clear smile.
"This answer isn't cheap. I can only tell you if you agree to join my plan~"
"You have accepted the offer from HX77754611 (Night Midnight)"
"You have lost Drop Card (Nakime)"
"You have gained Secret Manual Ice Heart Incantation (B+)"
Bai Cangshu did not lose out on this trade. Before a designated extraction method was available, the Drop Card of Nakime would most likely only yield some dimensional points, or some items or materials from Nakime, none of which were high in value in terms of tier.
Although Ice Heart Incantation had a B+ rating, it lacked any offensive capabilities, making it not a very easily circulated item among Reincarnators.
"Secret Manual Ice Heart Incantation"
"Quality: Rare"
"Description: The Nie family's inherited Mental cultivation method from the Fengyun derivative world, possessing a unique effect of suppressing demonic nature."
"Usage Requirement: Mental > 9"
"Effect: Grants the ability Ice Heart Incantation (B+) upon use."
Bai Cangshu wasn't sure if Ice Heart Incantation would have an effect on Killing Intent Ripple, but since he learned from Luo Xi that the second tier was inherently about controlling and exploring energy, he also intended to try out internal cultivation methods like Ice Heart Incantation.
The transaction completed, Heart Demon toyed with the Drop Card in her hand, and pointedly said to Bai Cangshu,
"Tao Bai Bai, remember to pay attention to the Neon news these next few days. I will make you understand that cooperating with me is a wise choice."
Heart Demon flashed with light and seemed to have directly left the public Space. Hearing her words, Black Butler's expression also became tense, and he warned Bai Cangshu.
"You'd better be careful. Heart Demon might possess some kind of ultra-long-distance killing ability. Some suspect she obtained Death Note. Once she gets real information, you might be killed without even seeing the person..."
Black Butler had once investigated Heart Demon, but after only finding a bit of information, he dared not delve deeper. Her combat power might not be the strongest among the Four Demons, but her dangerousness was definitely the highest.
Upon hearing this, Bai Cangshu became even more interested. He also wanted to see what the outcome would be when such a veteran Reincarnator directly confronted a national high-level authority.
