Chapter 356: Vermilion Bird Blood Essence! Destiny Trait!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the next second, Han Zhao appeared under the steep mountain wall.
However, the scarlet word ‘Demon’ on the mountain wall seemed to have faded and the light was much dimmer.
“The right side of the mountain wall.”
At this moment, Han Zhao heard the strange female voice again.
This time, he did not hesitate. He flew up and cut his palm. He watered the mountain wall with blood and entered.
Han Zhao felt his vision blur. He appeared in a narrow cave, and an extremely hot feeling suddenly came from the air.
He walked forward. The temperature was getting higher.
When he walked out of the cave, he realized that there was a cliff in front of him. There was no way out.
“No wonder it’s so hot.”
He looked down at the bottom of the cliff and saw a long river made of magma. The air was distorted by this shocking heat.
A small flame appeared in the void in front of him. In an instant, this flame expanded and turned into a firebird more than ten feet long.
“You have the aura of Yan Mohe.’
The firebird flapped its wings gently and floated in the void in front of Han Zhao. It suddenly spoke in human language.
“Are you talking about that Martial God senior?” Han Zhao reacted and asked.
“You call a demon a senior? Don’t you know that those who are not of our race have different intentions?” The firebird’s voice sank as the flames burning around its body rose with a whoosh, releasing a shocking heat.
“l only know that that senior treats me well,” Han Zhao said seriously. Although the firebird in front of him had a shocking aura, it was not strong. He was not afraid.
“There’s a saying among mortals that goes, ‘If it has milk, it’s a mother.’ Looks like it’s true.’
The firebird’s voice sank, carrying a hint of mockery.
“l didn’t say that I’m a gentleman,” Han Zhao said frankly, not minding the other party’s sarcasm.
To be honest, when one’s strength reached a certain level, whether one could be considered a human or not was not determined by their appearance. “You’re quite honest.” The firebird was stunned for a moment before sneering, “In that case, I’ll get straight to the point. I’ll teach you the secret technique to break through to the Divine Power Realm and the Deva Realm, as well as your cultivation experience. Help me find the Ying family’s descendants of the Great Qin Empire and give them something.”
As soon as the firebird finished speaking, it opened its mouth and a fiery red ring flew straight at Han Zhao.
Han Zhao flicked his sleeve and casually chanted the Three Points Origin Returning Qi. It formed a true qi vortex in front of him and dissipated the shocking heat contained in the ring. Then, he reached out to catch it.
“l originally wanted to teach you the secret technique to condense ‘Martial Will’. In the future, if you can’t survive the Divine Power Tribulation, you can use your Martial Will to replace the tribulation and step into the Pseudo Divine Power Realm. However, since you’ve already condensed your Martial Will, you can save a lot of trouble,” the firebird said indifferently.
“Senior is indeed sharp-eyed. You saw through me at a glance.” Han Zhao’s heart skipped a beat. Even Yan Mohe could not tell that he had condensed his Martial Will just now. He did not expect this firebird to see through him. As expected of a former Deva Realm almighty.
“You don’t have to test me. It’s precisely because of the Five-Color Peacock Martial Will in your body that I recruited you. I didn’t fancy the few people who entered the cave abode before you at all.”
The firebird snorted.
“The Primordial Phoenix has five colors, and red refers to the Vermilion Bird, while the Five-Color Peacock is a descendant of the phoenix bloodline.
Although this legend might not be true, the Vermilion Bird and the Five-Color Peacock are indeed related. The Five-Color Peacock Martial Will you condensed has an extremely mixed bloodline. If it’s not purified, the Divine Power Realm will be your peak.”
“Senior, you must be joking. If I can cultivate to the Divine Power Realm, it will really be blessed by my ancestors. How would I dare to ask for more?” Han Zhao laughed.
At most, he would believe half of what this firebird said. Even if what it said was true, if he could really transcend the Divine Power Heavenly Tribulation, would he be afraid that he would not be able to resolve the hidden danger of his Martial Will?
“…” The firebird was silent for a moment, as if it was stumped by Han Zhao’s answer. It didn’t know how to answer for a long time.
After a long time, the firebird said, “I’ll bestow you with the Vermilion Bird’s blood essence. It can make your Martial Will more condensed, and you only need to complete my request.”
“With such benefits, I naturally won’t let Senior down.” Han Zhao cupped his fists and bowed. In the simulation, the other party did not give him the Vermilion Bird’s blood essence. It seemed that after he broke through to the
Fiend Condensation Realm, he had already become popular. Not only did Yan Mohe give him the demon technique, but this Deva Ancestor’s action had also changed.
“Swear a Heavenly Dao oath. If you violate your promise, you will die from the nine Purple Firmament Divine Lightning during the Tribulation Transcendence,” the firebird said in a low voice.
“Yes.” Han Zhao’s expression was solemn. “l swear that if…”
The firebird flapped its wings gently. Han Zhao felt the fiery red in his palm suddenly heat up. Even though he was circulating his Astral Qi, he still felt a little hot.
“When you cultivate to the Three Fiend Realm, drip your blood into the ring. You will be able to draw out the Vermilion Bird’s blood essence and temper your Martial Will.”
The firebird said lightly.
“Only the blood of the Ying family’s descendants at the Fiend Condensation Realm can break the restriction on the ring. Otherwise, it will cause the ring to self-destruct. Of course, if you can obtain the Heavenly Phoenix True Yin, I can only admit that I’m unlucky.”
“Senior, you must be joking. I don’t want to suffer nine Purple Firmament Divine Lightning strikes.” Han Zhao smiled bitterly, but he had a countermeasure in his heart.
“Go.” The firebird flapped its wings and Han Zhao left the cave abode, appearing below the mountain wall again.
“Could this person be deliberately reminding me to provoke me?” After leaving the cave abode, Han Zhao thought to himself.
This Great Qin Deva definitely did not know that he knew Yu Xuanji, who had the bloodline of the Heavenly Phoenix. Moreover, Yu Xuanji had agreed to give him the Heavenly Phoenix True Yin.
She had specially mentioned that the blood of the Great Qin’s vestige could break the restriction. Clearly, she had ulterior motives.
“Could she have changed her target to me?” Han Zhao suddenly thought of this possibility.
In the previous simulation, he had been sucked dry by his mother-in-law of the Holy Emperor Palace because of this Great Qin Deva.
The other party definitely had ulterior motives for giving him the Vermilion Bird blood essence.
In addition, although Yan Mohe didn’t seem to be scheming, he probably wasn’t as simple as he seemed for someone who broke through to the Divine Power Realm.
“I’ve obtained a lot of benefits, but I feel that there are many risks,” Han Zhao muttered. He could only try wrongly through the simulation.
“There are still four days left until the trial expires. Now that the goal is clear, it will only take less than a day to return the way 1 came,”
In the past 11 days, although Han Zhao did not deliberately look for anomalous creatures and demons to kill, all the sources of Yin energy that appeared in his vision were taken by him.
In addition, many descendants of aristocratic families who did not pay were sent away by him. Even if the other party was a projection, it still brought him a lot of Yin energy.
It was unknown if the Demon Dragon Blade was a divine weapon, but the demon scale that recorded the Nirvana True Demon Technique contained high-quality Yin energy.
After thinking of his next plan, Han Zhao sat cross-legged on a large rock and waited for Qi Xuanming and Su Tianqi to leave the cave abode. After all, he had accepted the mission and had to send them out safely.
After an unknown period of time, the sun set. When the moon reached the middle of the sky, Qi Xuanming, Su Tianqi, Cao Wuyu, and Shen Xiao appeared one after another.
Su Tianqi saw Han Zhao sitting cross-legged on a large rock with his eyes closed. He went forward and asked, “Brother Han, when did you come out?”
“About five minutes ago,” Han Zhao opened his eyes and replied. From the expressions of the four of them, they should have gained something.
“l see. Speaking of which, I have to thank Brother Han.” Su Tianqi nodded and didn’t ask further. He had already achieved his goal on this trip. As for whether the others obtained better things, it had nothing to do with him.
“With our relationship, there’s no need to do this.” Han Zhao smiled.
“Brother Han, my trip has been completed. I’m preparing to leave this place. I wonder what your next plan is?” Su Tianqi asked.
“Then I’ll send you off first. I’m preparing to leave on the last day,” Han Zhao said seriously.
“Thank you.” Su Tianqi did not stand on ceremony. He knew that Shen Xiao and Cao Wuyu were so polite to him because of Han Zhao’s martial power. If they separated and met the two of them again, their lives would probably be unpredictable.
“What about Brother Qi?” Han Zhao looked at Qi Xuanming. He was deep in thought. No one knew what he was thinking.
“I’ll go with Brother Su.” Qi Xuanming came back to his senses. Although he did not obtain any treasures on this trip, he had obtained precious cultivation experience and many insights. Therefore, he only wanted to leave this place immediately and return to his family to enter seclusion to break through to the Fiend Condensation Realm.
“Alright, I’ll send you out first,” Han Zhao said.
“Brother Han, I won’t go with you. I have other missions.” Shen Xiao hurriedly replied when he saw Han Zhao’s gaze shift to him.
“Me too,” Cao Wuyu echoed. He felt very uncomfortable following Han Zhao.
“Mm.” Han Zhao nodded.
“I’ll immediately report the things I promised Brother Han to the family after I leave. Please wait a moment, Brother Han,” Shen Xiao added before Han Zhao could ask.
“Me too.” Cao Wuyu echoed again.
“I believe in the two of you. Please.” Han Zhao chuckled. The Heavenly Demon Oath was not simple. The two of them were descendants of wealthy families. They would not go back on their word for this bit of money and create hidden dangers for their future cultivation.
“Thanks a lot.’
Shen Xiao and Cao Wuyu cupped their hands at Han Zhao and quickly left the scene.
“Let’s go too.” After the two of them left, Han Zhao looked at Qi Xuanming and Su Tianqi.
“Brother Han, please.”
The two of them gestured for Han Zhao to leave first.
A day later, Han Zhao sent Qi Xuanming and Su Tianqi to the stronghold one after another and watched them leave.
Then, he began to search for anomalous creatures and demons. It was not until the afternoon of the last day that he returned to the stone house stronghold.
” System.”
[Collected 1,250 Notification Fragments. Do you want to synthesize the Trait?]
[Each synthesis will consume 200 Notification Fragments and 200,000 taels of gold. You will definitely obtain a one-time Basic Trait, Life Simulation.]
[There’s a 1% chance of obtaining a Destiny Trait. The Destiny Trait can take effect in the simulation.]
[7% chance of obtaining a one-time Fusion Trait, Upgrade Trait, and a specific Accumulation Trait of the corresponding quality.]
[Current Balance: 1,010,000 taels of gold]
“Destiny Trait?! It’s effective in the simulation!” Han Zhao’s eyes lit up.
“l have to think of a way to get another ten consecutive draws.”
Han Zhao took out the black-gold scale that Yan Mohe had given him from the Sumeru Pouch.
He stuck the scale between his eyebrows and infused his mental power into it.
Suddenly, Han Zhao felt his mind buzz, as if it was about to explode.
A huge Demon Statue stood in the sky above the clouds. Its six huge arms held different weapons. Facing the overwhelming anomalous creatures, it roared and punched out. The space seemed to be shaken until spiderweb-like cracks appeared. Countless anomalous creatures turned to dust, and more anomalous creatures were torn to pieces by the spatial rift.
In the next second, Han Zhao came back to his senses. The huge Demon
Statue transformed into the Divine Intent Diagram and attacked his mind.
Immediately after, the Entry Level section of the Nirvana Demon Technique was reflected in his eyes.
“You can only cultivate after dispersing your cultivation method. What if there are hidden dangers in this cultivation method?” Han Zhao pondered.
After memorizing the detailed content of the cultivation method, he began to absorb the pure Yin energy contained in the demon scales.
“We’ll have to collect the debt immediately.”
Now that there was not enough money to draw ten consecutive times, Han Zhao was prepared to go out and ask for money before simulating it.
In the end, he took a deep breath of the air that contained faint Yin energy. Han Zhao reluctantly forgot about the two suns in the sky. One day, when he entered the Divine Power, he would definitely settle down here.
Han Zhao returned to the middle of the stone house and sat cross-legged. As he injected his true qi into the array foundation under his feet, his figure flashed and completely disappeared..
