Without a way to replenish it, Xia Feng couldn’t continue these attempts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the blood mist was brought by the Blood Cloud of the Divine Tribulation, and apart from these two Divine Tribulations, he hadn’t seen this magical blood mist anywhere else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He frowned and suddenly heard a voice outside the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhang Heng, you dare to come here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Feng was taken aback, Zhang Heng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he a minister who had been very against him becoming the Emperor’s Son? What was he doing here now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A somewhat dull voice sounded: \"I realized how shortsighted I was, so I specifically came to apologize to the Emperor’s Son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Weren’t you just shouting that the people from the Nine Great Divine Domains came and that the Emperor’s Son was finished?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, you even boasted that the Emperor’s Son’s death would follow the envoys’ departure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now you’ve finally seen the Emperor’s Son’s might, haven’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words were said triumphantly, but Zhang Heng did not refute, lowering his head with a slightly dull voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have come to a clear realization of how ridiculous I once was. I am genuinely here to seek the Emperor’s Son’s forgiveness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard at the door sneered: \"Who knows if you’re here to apologize or to take the opportunity to harm the Emperor’s Son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Heng paused, seemingly remembering that Xia Feng was seriously injured at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hesitating for a moment, he directly knelt at the door, his expression carrying some sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Heng greatly admired Xia Tianming and once looked down on Xia Naiwen and Xia Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed that the current position of Emperor Xia should be Xia Tianming’s, and the Emperor’s Son should not be Xia Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He always thought that the two of them had only come this far because of Xia Tianming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when Xia Tianming was taken away by the Martial God from the Upper Realm, Zhang Heng felt very confused, not knowing how to handle himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His extreme sharp emotions were all vented on Xia Naiwen and Xia Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why he frequently spoke ill of Xia Feng publicly, while Xia Naiwen, considering his loyalty to the Great Xia Empire, had never bothered much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was also because Xia Naiwen had not had the time to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, seeing Xia Feng defeat Dongfang Le’an, Zhang Heng suddenly realized how ridiculous he had been, so he came to seek Xia Feng’s forgiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Feng didn’t mind much and thought if he wanted to kneel, then let him kneel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for forgiving or not, would a person hold a grudge against an ant?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to close his eyes and continue to sense that enlightenment of Great Dao fusion when he realized wisps of blood-colored mist were drifting in through the tightly closed doors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood mist went straight into the Dream Realm Pearl on his chest, then swiftly converted into a nearly white mist that burrowed into his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That feeling, akin to immersing his whole body in a hot spring during the cold winter, made Xia Feng involuntarily let out a moan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he quickly regained his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was that? How was it generated?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Feng closed his eyes, carefully sensing the white mist in his body. After a moment, his face showed a hint of enlightenment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-colored mist was the Power of Faith from the people, which could only be absorbed within a certain distance around Xia Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or if people worship his portrait or statue, it could also generate a small amount of Power of Faith.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, the Blood Cloud in the sky was just a small amount of Power of Faith absorbed and then devoured directly by Xia Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This blood-colored mist, though it can also be used for cultivation, often carried mixed emotions of its original owner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blood Cloud from the Heavenly Dao was obviously refined, so Xia Feng devouring it posed no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-colored mist drifting in now, if Xia Feng devoured it directly, he would likely be influenced by everyone’s emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Xia Feng glanced at the Dream Realm Pearl with a bit of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he needn’t worry about these issues; all the Power of Faith gathered here was absorbed by the Dream Realm Pearl and refined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white Power of Faith fed back to Xia Feng was already very pure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Power of Faith was much more useful than the blood-colored mist, more effectively merging the Great Dao together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he had a vague feeling that the various emotions in the mist being absorbed by the Dream Realm Pearl seemed to benefit the Dream Realm Pearl significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an indescribable feeling, like when the Dream Realm Pearl upgraded before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not pausing to think deeply, Xia Feng swallowed a few Elixirs and then lay on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, Zhang Heng and the guard at the door continued to instill Power of Faith into Xia Feng, though it became increasingly faint and seemed to wane at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Dream Realm Pearl, Xia Feng closed his eyes, and everything around him slowly began to change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even his own form gradually turned into the image he imagined, with a large amount of Power of Faith gathering within him, attempting to use this method to ignite the Divine Fire.\u003C\u002Fp>",1251,"2026-06-05T22:57:42.809Z",1,"novelbin.me","6106ef2517d098ca336499821b5b42906ef50eb12d28f3cd07e24efad1cb3541","pursued-by-the-top-grade-saintess-after-engageme-chapter-246","pursued-by-the-top-grade-saintess-after-engageme-chapter-244",634,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpursued-by-the-top-grade-saintess-after-engageme-cover.jpg"]
