Chapter 402

Returning to his room, he discovered that this Qilin Jade Pendant had great mysteries. When he probed the Sacred Beast Jade Pendant with his spiritual sense, a narrow space appeared inside. This made Chen Ang confused and very curious, but he didn't think too much about it and began to practice continuously.

It must be said that the Sacred Beast Jade Pendant is truly excellent. What takes others three or four days of bitter cultivation, he can do in one day, and the effect is even better than theirs. No wonder it is a true good treasure.

Wan Shitong ran over and said: "Boss, according to intelligence, Senior Sister Shui Lanlan is leaving the Wuqu Academy. How about it, should we go and see her off?"

"What? Senior Sister is leaving the Wuqu Academy so soon? Could it be that there is something else?"

Wan Shitong shook his head and said: "As for that, according to the current situation, I can't say. We have to ask clearly in person. It just so happens she is at the gate of the Wuqu Academy; it would be good for us to go and see her off."

Shui Lanlan had just prepared to leave the Wuqu Academy when she was stopped by Chen Ang, who spoke first: "Senior Sister, why are you leaving the Wuqu Academy? Is there another mission?"

"I don't have anything else here, and my mission is complete. Next, I am going to travel and see the prosperity of this Perished World. That is my next important mission."

"Perhaps for you, practicing in the academy is better, but for me, traveling the world is the best practice. Furthermore, I have the Weak Water Divine Body; cultivation bottlenecks are not dangerous to me. More importantly, I must focus on enlightenment."

Wan Shitong explained from the side: "I know this, Boss. Senior Sister Shui Lanlan is right. The Weak Water Body is indeed an existence that defies the heavens and is terrifying; there are no bottlenecks in cultivation."

"Once the cultivation and opportunity are reached, one can break through to the next realm. A perfect breakthrough, without any side effects. You can imagine how heaven-defying that is."

Shui Lanlan smiled bitterly: "Now you should understand the situation, right?"

"Understood, absolutely understood. Wan Shitong, you brat, why didn't you tell me just now? You caused such a big misunderstanding, it's a bit embarrassing."

"Boss, you didn't ask either!!!"

Shui Lanlan couldn't help but laugh out loud at these two funny characters: "In the two days I've spent with you, I know you are both kind-hearted people. It's just a pity that there is still a cultivation path to walk, and I cannot accompany you more."

She began to urge: "Alright, it's getting late. I am going to leave first. You two practice well, and in the future, work hard; you will definitely become disciples of the Wuqu Academy."

"I also have to work hard to improve my cultivation. I hope that when we meet next time, I can possess even more formidable strength. Especially you, Chen Ang, I think very highly of you, so don't give up easily."

"That is all I can say. I hope you take care, and we will meet again if there is a chance in the future."

After speaking, Shui Lanlan left Wuqu. Wan Shitong said somewhat sadly: "Boss, do you think we will see Senior Sister again?"

"Are you kidding? We will, we definitely will. Don't forget that Senior Sister is a student of the Wuqu Academy. Which student goes out into the world without the Dean preparing things? You can rest assured."

"We also have to continue to work hard to become stronger. How about it? You brat, are you interested in having another fight with me?"

Wan Shitong heard this and shook his head hurriedly, saying: "Boss, forget it. I know exactly how much I weigh. If I really fight you, I have absolutely no chance of winning."

401: Phoenix Essence Blood

Wan Shitong asked with confusion: "Boss, what do you think we should do next? There is nothing else inside the academy now. Should we go and gain some experience?"

Chen Ang asked with confusion: "What, do you have new plans recently?"

"Hehe, I do indeed have new plans. I have discovered that as my strength continues to grow, the energy required by the Nine Nether Underworld Flame is becoming more and more."

"But you must also know that I really don't have that much energy. I must find a way to continuously transform, so I hope you can accompany me on a trip."

"It seems you already have a clear place to go. Tell me, where are we going?"

"That place is not far from the academy. It is a newly discovered fire-attribute Secret Realm. I want you to go with me and see how the situation is."

Chen Ang smiled: "Alright, I'll accompany you on a trip. Let's go tell the Dean."

After obtaining the Dean's permission, the two headed toward that Secret Realm. At the entrance of the Secret Realm, two elders from the Dragon family were protecting it.

"Chen Ang, let me introduce you. These are the Eighth Elder and Ninth Elder of the Dragon family. Both possess the strength of the mid-stage Sovereign Realm. Their main task this time is to help us guard the Secret Realm and prevent others from entering."

"Greetings, Elders!"

The Eighth Elder said first: "This is Chen Ang. He is indeed a genius. Without any family background, it really makes one unable to help but praise him."

"Alright, Eighth Brother, let them go in. Time is precious. The space has been a bit unstable recently. It is better to go early and return early."

"Oh, oh, oh, look at my brain, I forgot to tell you. According to investigations, this Secret Realm has started to show some signs of instability. Remember, you only have one day. Within one day, no matter what the situation is, you must leave. Do you hear me?"

"Most of the monsters in the Secret Realm have been cleared by us. Only some Tier 9 and Tier 8 ones remain. Just consider it training for you."

After the two entered the Secret Realm, the Ninth Elder said: "Eighth Brother, look at you, isn't this clearly wasting their time?"

"Sigh, my old habit acted up. It's my fault. According to their strength, there shouldn't be any big problems inside. The beasts at the Spirit Realm and above have been cleared by us. Basically, going in is to obtain resources."

"The Family Head has only this one precious son. Do you think he would let him die in vain?"

The two entered the Secret Realm and discovered that the Secret Realm was a volcano. Looking at the various messy fire-attribute resources, Wan Shitong drooled.

He shouted loudly: "Hehe, I originally thought the treasures my father left me were not many, but now it seems I underestimated my father's strength. So many treasures are enough for a long period of cultivation."

Just as the two were mining, they suddenly felt a powerful aura staring at them from behind, which gave Chen Ang a trace of crisis.

Chen Ang asked with confusion: "Wan Shitong, do you feel that this place is a bit terrifying?"

"Boss, you can rest assured. I won't say anything else, but in this area, there is absolutely no problem. The two elders of our Dragon family cleared most of the beasts in advance. What remains are some beasts below the Spirit Realm. It is very simple for us to solve them."

Chen Ang felt more and more that something was wrong. Suddenly, an attack appeared behind him, which he easily resolved. Looking at the little black bird in front of him, Chen Ang couldn't help but frown.

He felt the cultivation of Tier 9 on this little bird, but the pressure it brought was very formidable. He called Wan Shitong over, and the two discussed how to deal with it.

Wan Shitong said confidently: "Boss, just watch. It is also Tier 9; I don't believe the little bird's strength can be more formidable than mine."

He took out the Nine Nether Underworld Flame and began to attack the little black bird. The little black bird did not show weakness. After absorbing the Nine Nether Underworld Flame, its body had no abnormalities, which left the two dumbfounded.

"What? It can actually absorb my Nine Nether Underworld Flame? Logically speaking, it's impossible. Could it be some ancient exotic species? Boss, we've made a fortune this time. You say, should we kill it or imprison it to use as a pet?"

Chen Ang urged: "Of course, kill it. You brat, what are you thinking? This kind of pet has hostility from the beginning. Even if it is tamed, it won't follow you 100%."

"Unless it's the kind raised from childhood, that's safer. This kind, forget it, unless you are willing to conclude a contract."

"Sigh, little bird, don't blame me for being impolite next."

The two began to attack the little black bird from left and right. I don't know why, but the little black bird's reaction speed was extremely fast, easily escaping the two's pincer attack.

This made Chen Ang unable to help but be impatient. He took out the Spear-Breaking Qilin Spear. He didn't believe that even the Spear-Breaking Qilin Spear would be useless against this little bird, as it itself had the function of absorbing others' energy.

The black flames on the little black bird's feathers were originally very huge. After being touched by the Spear-Breaking Qilin Spear a few times, the black flames on the feathers began to slowly become weak. Finding the right time, Wan Shitong punched the bird directly from behind.

The bird was left on the ground, its right wing injured, unable to fly. It was howling wantonly in its mouth, as if cursing the two.

Watching the bird's eyes change from black to white, Wan Shitong shouted loudly: "Boss, not good! This little thing is going to self-destruct. Kill it immediately, you must not let it self-destruct."

With one spear strike, he ended the bird's life. Wan Shitong carefully observed the bird and, after discovering it was dead, smiled and said: "Boss, we've made a fortune this time. Do you know what this is? This is a Phoenix."

"It has a complete fit with my Nine Nether Underworld Flame. After burning it, let's see how many drops of essence blood can be refined. No wonder it could absorb the Nine Nether Underworld Flame; the two are of the same lineage, it definitely can absorb it."

"It's a good thing it was only used temporarily just now. If I had been using the Nine Nether Underworld Flame to attack continuously, and the absorption reached a very formidable level, that would have been the most troublesome."

After refining for half a day, a drop of essence blood was finally formed, but just this one drop made Wan Shitong unable to close his mouth from smiling.

"Boss, let's discuss. I also know that you don't have much pursuit for this kind of Phoenix essence blood. Let this drop of essence blood be given to me. Whatever you want in this Secret Realm, you can take it."

Chen Ang smiled: "I didn't have any other business coming here this time, I just wanted to accompany you on a trip. It just so happens that we obtained the Phoenix essence blood this time. Hurry up and absorb it here as soon as possible, and let's leave after absorbing it."

"The environment here is very suitable for cultivation. I believe there shouldn't be any problems. After being tempered by the Phoenix essence blood, your body should undergo a transformation. At that time, as your strength slowly increases, you will be able to protect yourself."

402: Phoenix Heaven Destruction

"However, you brat, you must be careful. This Phoenix just died, so it definitely has a certain amount of resentment. I'll give you a choice: go back and refine it, or refine it here."

Hearing this, Wan Shitong said without hesitation: "Of course, here, Boss. I haven't experienced the resentment of a Phoenix yet. It's just right for training. I have been struggling to find a way to break through my spiritual power, perhaps this is an opportunity."

Chen Ang heard what Wan Shitong said and helplessly agreed. He knew that Wan Shitong saw that his own progress was very fast recently, and he was urgently in need of becoming stronger. This Phoenix essence blood was just an opportunity.

After taking the essence blood, he began to absorb it slowly. He underestimated the resentment of the Phoenix. The Phoenix essence blood was constantly impacting Wan Shitong's spiritual consciousness.

Being eroded by the Phoenix's flames, it was extremely painful. He condensed a clone of the Nine Nether Underworld Flame and began to fight the Phoenix.

Wan Shitong knew that just absorbing the essence blood was a good opportunity to polish himself and could enhance his control over the Nine Nether Underworld Flame. The two flames twisted together. At the beginning, the Phoenix was still very fierce.

As time went on, the influence brought by the Phoenix was also constantly decreasing. In the end, Wan Shitong won. After completely absorbing the essence blood, he woke up and let out a long breath.

He couldn't help but complain: "This is truly not a sin that a human can bear. The Phoenix's spiritual power is indeed terrifying. The residual resentment is so strong. It's a good thing it didn't grow up completely. How terrifying would it be if it grew up?"

Chen Ang smiled: "What are you thinking, you brat? The essence blood of an adult Phoenix is something you can bear? I believe even your father doesn't have such great ability. Take it or leave it."

"Being able to obtain the Phoenix essence blood this time can be considered our victory. I really don't know how the two elders handled it, letting go of such a good thing as a Phoenix. Through the Dragon family's cultivation, it could definitely bring a relatively reliable powerhouse to the family."

"It's just a pity that it has all vanished now. But it's also good that it can improve one's own strength. Boss, let's go in and take a look, maybe there are good things in the Secret Realm."

The two continued to search in the Secret Realm. Suddenly, a beast in front of them caught their attention. Wan Shitong smiled: "Boss, good thing, it's a good thing, Iron-Backed Dragon Ox."

"It possesses a trace of Dragon bloodline in its body. Just now you helped me obtain the Phoenix essence blood, so I must also make some contribution to you. How about this Iron-Backed Dragon Ox? The Iron-Backed Dragon Ox's defense is extremely high. If we want to confront it head-on, it will be a bit difficult."

"What difficulty could there be? It is also Tier 9, do you think I'm afraid of it? Watch me kill it."

After speaking, he picked up the Spear-Breaking Overlord Spear and rushed up. The Iron-Backed Dragon Ox saw someone daring to offend it, and its heart was very angry. It had a trace of Dragon bloodline in its body after all; the dignity of the Dragon race must not be easily trampled upon.

They soon fought together. It must be said that the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox's defense was truly astonishing. His Spear-Breaking Qilin Spear could be considered a divine weapon, but it had no use in front of the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox; not a single crack appeared. He was very unwilling in his heart.

Wan Shitong said: "Boss, let me help you."

After refining the Phoenix essence blood, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the flame had undergone a transformation. The flame began to lean toward deep purple, and the shape of the flame even turned into the shape of a Phoenix. Using Phoenix Heaven Destruction, with one strike, the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox's defense was instantly broken.

Chen Ang said dumbfounded: "Wan Shitong, how can you have such strong strength? This Phoenix is indeed powerful; the help it brought you is very considerable."

"Hehe, just a coincidence, just a coincidence. This Phoenix Heaven Destruction is the Phoenix's innate divine skill. That Phoenix hadn't reached the Demon King realm yet, so it hadn't comprehended it. I was lucky enough to comprehend it."

"Phoenix Heaven Destruction can only be used once a month, and it consumes a great deal of flame. Just this one strike consumed most of the strength in my body. Now any Tier 9 beast could kill me, so you must protect my safety."

Chen Ang ignored him, went up, and dissected all the valuable things on the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox. After searching carefully, he discovered that, like the Phoenix, it did not produce a Demon Core. Helplessly, he let Wan Shitong refine it. After refining, a drop of golden essence blood came out.

"Boss, we've made a fortune this time. Dragon essence blood should be able to enhance extremely high defense. Just now, in the battle with the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox, you should have been able to clearly feel that the Iron-Backed Dragon Ox is not good at fighting at all, but its defense is extremely astonishing."
