But she was unable to believe no matter what that that blazing sun was actually the Vermilion Bird true blood that everyone racked their heads to snatch for.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "This space is hewed open with the Vermilion Bird true blood as its foundation. And this oasis is the center of this space. One can only obtain the Vermilion Bird true blood from here."
Leng Qiuling's mouth opened into a circle and said with a disbelieving look, "Then … Then what was it that Ji Xun snatched away?"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "That I don't know. But … I reckon that it's nothing good, huhu."
Leng Qiuling listened until she stared dumbfounded and was tongue-tied. Until now, she still felt like she was dreaming.
Looking at the dead bodies strewn all over the ground in the oasis, Leng Qiuling could not help smiling bitterly.
These people went through all kinds of hardsh.i.p.s and difficulties to come here. They did not expect that what they fought over was actually a fake Vermilion Bird true blood.
However, Leng Qiuling soon felt at ease too.
The world of martial artists was like this to begin with.
Those who possess a great destiny could obtain astonishing treasures inside mystic realms, going through a nirvanic rebirth.
But the vast majority of the people would perish inside mystic realms.
The birth of a powerhouse was built on countless corpses.
Using the achievement of a general was built on the dead bodies of countless soldiers was not over the top at all.
"But … how should we obtain the Vermilion Bird true blood?" Leng Qiuling asked with uncertainty.
In this place, no one dared to fly toward the sky. Because the high-altitude restrictive array formation was not what they could contend with.
This had already been confirmed by countless people.
Ye Yuan smiled slightly, figure leaping, and stepped onto that stone table.
Rumble!
In the sky, winds and clouds changed. An extremely powerful flame appeared indistinctly as if it was going to burn the entire space.
And Ye Yuan was situated in the center of this firestorm!
Seeing this scene, Leng Qiuling's expression changed greatly, and she exclaimed, "Ye Yuan, be careful!"
But Ye Yuan did not care at all, figure leaping straight up to the clouds!
At the same time, a majestic power of Great Dao burst forth on Ye Yuan's body, welcoming that horrifying flame.
Leng Qiuling's pupils constricted. That limitless flame was actually shrinking!
As if … it was afraid of Ye Yuan.
Those flames finally converged on the blazing sun.
Ye Yuan flew higher and higher, all the way until he was at the same height as the blazing sun.
Under Leng Qiuling's astonished gaze, Ye Yuan reached his hand out and plucked at the blazing sun.
At this time, the incomparably berserk blazing sun actually became incomparably docile, its light weakening extremely rapidly, finally turning into the appearance of a drop of blood.
Ye Yuan grasped lightly, holding this drop of Vermilion Bird true blood in the palm of his hand, and floated down.
Leng Qiuling looked at Ye Yuan with a look of astonishment on her face.
"You … How did you do it?"
Chapter 1866 - Great Destiny
Everything was as a matter of course. It was as if all this was prepared for Ye Yuan.
No matter looking from which angle, climbing up to the sky to pluck the blood, this sort of thing, was an extremely dangerous thing.
But Ye Yuan did it so calmly.
That appearance was like walking one round in his own backyard.
"You refine it here. I'll stand guard over you. Nobody should come over to this place anymore."
Ye Yuan handed the Vermilion Bird true blood to Leng Qiuling, but Leng Qiuling did not take it.
"This … you're really giving it to me?" Leng Qiuling's eyes carried some doubt.
Not that she was suspicious, but that this kind of massive lucky chance was what even peak True God powerhouses were moved by. But Ye Yuan gave it to her without the slightest hesitation.
This kind of thing, anyone would feel like they were dreaming.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "How can the relationship between friends be what a drop of true blood can replace? That day, if not for you speaking up to stop it in the Leng Family, this Ye would have many more troubles appear out of thin air. This drop of true blood, give to you."
"B-But this is too valuable."
With the treasure being in front of her, it would be false if Leng Qiuling said that she was unmoved. But this Vermilion Bird true blood was really quite a hot potato.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "How can an Empyrean's abode possibly just have this bit of Vermilion Bird true blood? The real treasures are all inside the abode. This Vermilion Bird true blood might not be considered very valuable."
...
This refinement took three months' time.
On this day, in the oasis, a scorching light shot to the sky.
An enormous Vermilion Bird phantom formed behind Leng Qiuling.
Her aura was also much stronger than before and actually already stepped into Sixth Firmament Celestial Deity.
"Huhu, congratulations! From today onwards, ice and fire laws fusing, Miss Leng's strength will increase greatly! The title of Vast Heaven Great Imperial Capital's number one genius will likely change owners very soon."
Leng Qiuling slowly opened her eyes, Ye Yuan's voice transmitted into her ears.
Leng Qiuling was just about to answer when her gaze turned sharp, a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes.
Unknowingly, Ye Yuan also actually broke through to become a Third Firmament Celestial Deity already.
"Didn't you break through too?" A hint of a bitter smile flashed across the corners of Leng Qiuling's mouth.
She thought that by obtaining the Vermilion Bird true blood, she would suppress Ye Yuan for some time. She did not expect that within a short three months, Ye Yuan similarly broke through his realm.
Could it be that this guy had no bottlenecks?
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "This Vermilion Bird true blood's vital energy is too beneficial. I also suffered a considerable impact by the side and actually found the opportunity to break through just like that. Alright, it's getting late, we should head out. Opening up the Empyrean abode still needs to borrow the power of your Vermilion Bird true blood."
Leng Qiuling nodded her head slightly and followed Ye Yuan, heading toward the exit together.
When they returned to the Heavenly Sun Mountain Range, that valley was already packed full of martial artists.
"Tsk tsk, that Xu Xing is really remarkable, to actually obtain the White Tiger true blood! His strength is formidable to begin with. Now, among the junior generation, nobody is his match at all."
"Isn't that so? Heard that a kid called Ye Yuan actually dared to snatch away his woman, really tired of living!"
"Heh, to talk about this Ye Yuan, that isn't some nice guy either! Inside the Door of Vermilion Bird, Ye Yuan killed Heavenly Water City Lord Ji Xun's disciple in front of his face. Putting aside that Ye Yuan's strength is fearsome, his gall is also unbelievably fat! However, Ji Xun obtained the Vermilion Bird true blood, so that kid will likely suffer a disaster."
"There's still such a thing? Then this kid really took the road to ruin! No matter how talented he is, he's also merely a Second Firmament Celestial Deity. In front of Xu Xing and Ji Xun, he's akin to an ant."
...
At this time, the general situation had already settled down. Everyone was discussing the ownership issue of the Four Symbols true blood this time.
Several wisps of discussing sounds floated into Leng Qiuling and Ye Yuan's ears.
Leng Qiuling's brows furrowed. She did not think that Xu Xing actually obtained the White Tiger true blood.
She knew how difficult it was to obtain the true blood from
the hands of a group of True God powerhouses.
This Xu Xing was truly a proud son of heaven, his destiny exuberant!
Suddenly, a dark shadow arrived with a howl. The powerful aura immediately enveloped Ye Yuan two people.
"DIE!"
On the Thousand Soar Alliance's side, Gu Tianque's expression suddenly changed, attacking fiercely at the same time.
Bang!
In an intense clash, Gu Tianque was actually struck until he fell back repeatedly.
"Ji Xun, what's the meaning of this?" Gu Tianque said in a solemn voice.
This dark shadow was none other than precisely the Ji Xun who just came out of the Door of Vermilion Bird.
At this time, Ji Xun's aura was much more gloomier and colder compared to before, virtually able to freeze people.
"Gu Tianque, I only want this boy's life, it has nothing to do with you! If you don't move, I'll kill you too!" Ji Xun said in a cold voice.
Gu Tianque was greatly enraged when he heard that and said, "Want to kill me? With just the likes of you?"
Ji Xun released his aura. The terrifying aura spread out, making Gu Tianque's pupils shrink.
This Ji Xun seemed to be different.
"You can try!" Ji Xun said in a cold voice.
At this time, Ji Kang suddenly stepped forward and said, "Alright, everyone is about to enter the Empyrean abode, the real treasure should all be hidden there. Two great True God powerhouses having an internal strife here isn't some good thing. Give me face, put aside whatever grudge there is. It won't be too late to kill people after leaving this Empyrean abode."
Ji Xun's expression changed several times and he snorted coldly and said, "Fine, I'll give you face! Gu Tianque, after going out, if you still dare to protect this little animal, I'll definitely kill you! If you don't believe it, you can give it a try!"
Gu Tianque snorted coldly and said, "Impervious to reason!"
Actually, he was extremely shocked in his heart. Exchanging a blow just now, Ji Xun's strength seemed to be much stronger than before.
But in this place, everyone suppressed their cultivation realms. Just how one's strength was, one could only know after going out.
Ji Kang smiled and said, "Huhu, Ji Kang heard that you obtained the Vermilion Bird true blood. Come, the other three people are already in position. You guys open up the Empyrean abode!"
Hearing this, Ji Xun's expression became even uglier as he said in a solemn voice, "I didn't get the Vermilion Bird true blood!"
Ji Kang's smile turned stiff on his face and he said in surprise, "You didn't obtain it? Then who got it?"
Ji Xun's unfriendly gaze looked toward Leng Qiuling.
"Heh, if a snipe and a clam are locked in a fight, it's only to the advantage of the fisherman! I didn't expect that in the end, it actually let this girlie become the fisherman!"
Everyone's gazes looked over toward Leng Qiuling, all incomparably surprised.
Only then did Gu Tianque also pay attention to this disciple of his at this time, she actually already broke through to become a Sixth Firmament Celestial Deity!
Beyond the shock, he was pleasantly surprised.
"Haha, Ling-er, you really obtained the Vermilion Bird true blood?" Gu Tianque said with a big laugh.
Leng Qiuling nodded her head, counted as acquiescing to it.
When Xu Xing heard this news, he also laughed loudly as he said, "Huhu, it's really great! Junior Apprentice Sister Qiuling, you and I are both people of great destiny! It's impossible for you and that ant beside you to get together! The gap between you guys will only get bigger and bigger! Come, let's go open up the abode!"
He felt that him acquiring the White Tiger true blood and Leng Qiuling obtaining the Vermilion Bird true blood could already shake off all of the young generation.
In the future, even stepping into the realm of Empyrean was also not impossible.
Ye Yuan was naturally even less worthy of Leng Qiuling.
"Great destiny? Senior Apprentice Brother Xu, I think that you're mistaken. The one who possesses a great destiny isn't me, but Ye Yuan. This Vermilion Bird true blood was given to me by him," Leng Qiuling shook her head and explained.
Chapter 1867 - Empyrean Abode's True Colors
"G-Gave to you?" Xu Xing opened his eyes wide, a look of disbelief.
Four Symbols true blood, this kind of massive lucky chance, would actually be given to others with two hands?
Not just Xu Xing, the others also looked at Ye Yuan with stunned faces.
This guy was also too extravagant in order to chase after a girl, right?
Quite a number of people looked at Leng Qiuling, all envious to the extreme.
They only hated that they did not have Leng Qiuling's looks and let Ye Yuan gift this massive lucky chance to them. How great would that be!
Obtaining the Vermilion Bird true blood was not just increasing cultivation so simple. That was equivalent to cleansing the martial artist's marrows anew, letting the martial artist have greater room for improvement in the future.
Especially for peerless geniuses like Xu Xing and Leng Qiuling, they even had a chance of stepping into the realm of Empyrean in the future!
That realm was a legendary existence, who would not be moved?
Leng Qiuling nodded and said, "Without Ye Yuan, even if I knew where the Vermilion Bird true blood was, it's also impossible to obtain it."
Ji Xun's gaze locked onto Ye Yuan firmly, gnashing his teeth in hatred.
Everyone did not discover that the blazing sun in the sun was the real Vermilion Bird true blood, so why was he able to discover it?
Ji Xun learned from Empyrean Devilfeather there that the blazing sun in the sky was the real Vermilion Bird true blood. Originally, he still harbored great hopes, thinking that no one would discover it.
But sadly, when he came out from underground, he discovered that that blazing sun in the sky was long gone.
The sky was still that sky, but the Vermilion Bird true blood was not around anymore. This made him practically go insane.
"Je je, this boy is rather interesting! The concealment of the Vermilion Bird true blood can be said to be highly ingenious. Everyone can see it, everyone is under its illumination, but … it's simply impossible for there to be people who would think that the sun on top of their heads was actually the Vermilion Bird true blood. But this boy did it!' Empyrean Devilfeather said with a strange laugh.
Empyrean Devilfeather was still suppressed by Ji Xun in the end. But Ji Xun was not able to exterminate him too and could only seal him up, not giving him the chance to recover.
But when Empyrean Devilfeather saw Ye Yuan, he became greatly interested.
"Humph! No matter how extraordinary he is, it's also hard to escape death in the end!" Ji Xun said with a cold snort.
Empyrean Devilfeather laughed and said, "Heh, have you ever thought that this boy might be hiding an even greater secret on him?"
Ji Xun's mind stirred, but he still said disdainfully, "No matter how great the secret on him is, can it be bigger than Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove's treasures?"
Empyrean Realm also said, "That's true. Back then, Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove nearly almost broke through to the realm of Heavenly Emperor. Lord Jiu Shang was even a magnitude worse compared to him."
On this side, Xu Xing could not quite maintain his expression anymore.
He was still just pledging in all solemnity, saying that Ye Yuan was an ant and did not have a great destiny. But in a blink of an eye, his face was slapped resoundingly.
Ye Yuan obtained the Vermilion Bird true blood and gave it straight to Leng Qiuling.
He, Xu Xing, obtained the White Tiger true blood but chose to refine it himself.
Now, he ran over to say whatever you and I both have great destinies, this was simply performing a slapstick.
Feeling those strange gazes from all around, Xu Xing wished to find a hole in the ground to tunnel into.
Ji Kang also looked at
Ye Yuan rather surprisedly. Nodding his head, he said to Leng Qiuling, "Since that's the case, then let's get started?"
Leng Qiuling nodded slightly, leaping up and flying in front of the Door of Vermilion Bird.
Xu Xing and the other two people also flew in front of their respective doors. Apart from Xu Xing, the other two were both True God Realm itinerant cultivators.
But the True God Realm powerhouses on the Thousand Soar Alliance's side were empty-handed.
The four people revolved the bloodline power within their bodies. Immediately, four enormous Four Symbols phantoms emerged in the air.
Four roars echoed out, those four phantoms tunneled straight into the Four Symbols doors.
Inside the Four Symbols doors, four beams of light emitted, colliding together fiercely.
Rumble!
A massive stone door condensed and formed in the valley.
On the stone door, an archaic aura that had experienced the many vicissitudes of life exuded, stirring people's souls.
Even those True God powerhouses were all incomparably rattled too.
The aura inside this stone door was not what they could contend with at all.
Seeing this stone door, Ye Yuan's pupils constricted.
"This aura, could it be …"
Dustless also had a look of surprise and said with a nod, "Most likely, you guessed correctly! What in the world does this old fogey want to do?"
The others naturally would not pay attention to Ye Yuan. All of them had their attention drawn by this stone door.
"Haha, after this stone door opens, it definitely contains countless treasures! Come on!"
Finally, someone could not hold back the excitement in their hearts and sped over toward the stone door.
With someone leading the way, how could these people still endure it, all flying toward the stone door crazily?
Leng Qiuling's figure floated down but discovered that Ye Yuan's expression was very ugly.
"Ye Yuan, what's wrong with you?" Leng Qiuling asked curiously.
Ye Yuan frowned and said, "Nothing, let's go in too."
The scene before their eyes changed. The group of powerhouses arrived in another mountain range.
