“Senior, calm down and listen to my explanation.” Han Zhao took a deep breath and explained, ‘1 1 encountered a…”

“Vermilion Bird’s blood essence?!” Yu Xuanji’s beautiful eyes widened in shock, no longer as calm as before.

The Primordial Phoenix had five colors, and red referred to the Vermilion Bird.

The Primordial Phoenix mentioned here was the legendary Phoenix Ancestor at the beginning of the world.

Strictly speaking, the later Vermilion Bird had already become a separate race and was already on par with the Primordial Phoenix. In fact, its strength was even superior.

Yu Xuanji had the bloodline of the Ice Phoenix and was a branch of the Primordial Phoenix. Compared to the Vermilion Bird bloodline, her bloodline was a level lower.

She was currently in the critical period of her sixth nirvana. If she could absorb the Vermilion Bird bloodline and stimulate the Phoenix Origin Blood in her body, it was very likely that she could accelerate the completion of her nirvana.

If that was the case, not only could she return to her peak and take back the

Hundred Spirit Sect, but she even had a chance to take another step forward.

It involved the Great Dao of the Deva Realm, so she could not help but be excited.

“l feel that Senior Deva should have ill intentions, but at this moment, I need to absorb the Vermilion Bird’s blood essence to strengthen my Martial Will and lead to the recovery of my body. Therefore, I need Senior’s Heavenly Phoenix True Yin as a catalyst,” Han Zhao explained.

“l understand now. No wonder I felt a familiar aura in your body. So your Martial Will is actually the Five-Color Peacock.” Yu Xuanji came to a realization.

“Senior agrees?” Han Zhao asked.

“The Vermilion Bird’s blood essence is a supreme treasure to me at this moment. 1 have no reason to reject it,” Yu Xuanji said frankly.

“The Vermilion Bird’s blood essence is in the ring on my finger. Senior, please take it off.”

Han Zhao raised his head slightly. He didn’t even have the strength to raise his hand now.

“Okay.” Yu Xuanji seemed to have thought of something and her voice suddenly became low. She grabbed Han Zhao’s hand and took off the scarlet ring on it.

Han Zhao stared at Yu Xuanji.

Yu Xuanji looked at the ring in his hand and suddenly said to Han Zhao, “Rest for a while.’

“Huh?” Han Zhao was stunned, not understanding what she meant.

“Your body is too weak and can’t withstand the Vermilion Bird’s blood essence. Rest first,” Yu Xuanji said indifferently.

“But… alright.” Seeing Yu Xuanji’s insistence, Han Zhao could only agree.

The two of them did not speak, and the cave instantly fell silent.

Yu Xuanji took out firewood from the Sumeru Pouch and lit a bonfire beside

Han Zhao.

After starting the fire, Han Zhao felt much warmer.

After a long time, he fell asleep and closed his eyes.

At some point, the bonfire had already burned out. The light in the cave was dim. Han Zhao felt something touch his eyes. When he opened his eyes, he realized that his vision was blocked and his face was covered with an ice-blue

“Senior…” Han Zhao was about to ask when he suddenly felt his waist and eyes go numb. His body had completely lost its strength. His lips opened and closed, but he could not make a sound.

Suddenly, a pair of slightly clenched hands pressed on both sides of Han Zhao’s shoulders.

Wet and cold lips gently pressed against the tip of Han Zhao’s nose and retreated.

In the darkness, Han Zhao felt his cheek being scratched by a fingertip and finally stopped on his lips.

“I’m the passive party?!” Han Zhao suddenly came back to his senses.

In the next second, a cold aura continuously entered his body.

Han Zhao felt that his body was about to freeze. He could only chase after that one point.

Suddenly, Han Zhao felt a piercing pain on the tip of his tongue. The taste of rust spread in his mouth.

Boom!

A violent aura swept over.

Han Zhao vaguely heard a bird cry and quickly lost consciousness.

“Wu!” Han Zhao suddenly opened his eyes, and his body straightened like a sit-up.

“I’m fine? It’s so warm!”

Han Zhao realized that the coldness in his body had basically disappeared. His entire body was warm.

Under his skin, there was a faint five-colored halo lingering. [Martial Will—Five-Color Peacock: Rank 2 (2,250/10,000); Upgradeable] His Martial Will had directly strengthened by more than double.

Han Zhao checked his physical condition. Although his injuries had not recovered, at least it did not affect his movements.

“Could it be that Yu Xuanji helped me refine the Vermilion Bird blood?” Han Zhao recalled the scene before he fainted and could not help but feel his heart skip a beat. The pain on the tip of his tongue reminded him that everything that had happened just now was real.

Han Zhao looked around the cave and realized that there was no sign of Yu Xuanji.

He stood up and prepared to look for it. However, just as he reached the entrance of the cave, he saw Yu Niang walking in with a pile of firewood.

“Brother Han, you’re awake! How’s your body?” Yu Niang said excitedly.

“I’m already much better.” Han Zhao smiled and said hesitantly, “How’s Senior

“Sister Xuanji is resting. She just said that she helped you treat your injuries with all her might. In order to focus, she didn’t even let me look. I was so worried.” Yu Niang heaved a sigh of relief.

“That’s good.” Han Zhao was relieved. It was good that Yu Xuanji did not mind.

“Brother Han, your injuries haven’t recovered yet. Rest more.” Yu Niang looked at him with concern.

Han Zhao turned around and returned to the cave. He took out some high-grade Blood Qi Pills and high-grade healing pills from the Sumeru Pouch and poured them into his mouth.

These medicinal pills melted in his mouth and entered his stomach. Then, they turned into heat that spread throughout his body.

However, because Han Zhao’s meridians were all damaged, most of the medicinal power would be wasted. However, it was enough to make his body feel more comfortable.

Han Zhao told Yu Niang that he had to regulate his breathing for a while and asked her not to disturb him. Then, he took out the black-gold scale that recorded the Nirvana True Demon Technique and pasted it on his forehead.

Although the previous simulation had allowed him to obtain the First Level cultivation memory of the Nirvana True Demon Technique through the memory option, this cultivation method was too complicated. The Divine Intent Diagram was extremely profound. Visualizing directly through the memory image would consume more of his mental power, so Han Zhao directly visualized through the demon scales to save his mental power.

A huge Demon Statue Divine Intent Diagram appeared in his heart. Han Zhao put down his hand and sat cross-legged. His five cores were facing the sky, and the black-gold scale stuck to the space between his eyebrows.

Crack! Crack!

As Han Zhao circulated the First Level Nirvana True Demon Technique, the cultivation power in his body quickly dissipated and fused into his skin, muscles, blood essence, and bone marrow.

A layer of purple-black light flickered and gradually enveloped Han Zhao’s figure. His five senses disappeared, and he entered a mysterious state.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The faint crackling sound of burning firewood kept sounding. When Han Zhao opened his eyes again, the bonfire beside him was burning and swaying. Bright moonlight shone in from the entrance of the cave.

[Nirvana True Demon Technique: First Level Small Mastery 55%,

Upgradeable; Special Effect: Nirvana Body—Elementary]

[Nirvana Body: Legend has it that it’s a supreme physique that cultivators of demon techniques dream of. It’s a necessary physique for cultivating the True Demon Body. After reaching the Greater Mastery of the Nirvana Body and completing the first nirvana, you can temporarily enter the nirvana state. In the nirvana state, your martial arts, martial techniques, secret techniques, true qi, Astral Qi, Lesser Divine Power, and so on will have a 50% increase in power. Lightning Tribulation Resistance will increase by 10%.]

[The current cultivation method is affected by the effect of the Body Tempering God Trait. Some of the content has deviated from the original route. During your cultivation process, you will no longer be restricted by race.]

“No wonder this Yan Mohe can fight a Deva at the third level of the Divine Power Realm. This Nirvana Body is too ridiculous!” Han Zhao looked at the introduction of the Nirvana Body in the system notification and couldn’t help but be speechless.

[Demon Vanquishing Light] was only effective on the power of demons and divine weapons. Its status bonus could not be effective on martial artists and spirit beast Bloodline Holders.

However, the Nirvana Body could directly increase one’s strength and deal with all enemies.

The key was that the increase in Lightning Tribulation Resistance was especially important to Han Zhao.

With [Demon Vanquishing Light] and [Nirvana Body], if he encountered demons and descendants of aristocratic families in the future, it would probably be as simple as killing pigs.

If Han Zhao obtained the [Immaculate Body] through cultivating the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique, coupled with the [Nirvana Body] of the Nirvana True Demon Technique, he did not believe that he would not be able to survive this Divine Power Heavenly Tribulation.

“It’s just 27 Divine Firmament Heavenly Lightning and nine Purple

Firmament Divine Lightning. Just wait.’

At this moment, Han Zhao felt like the clouds had parted and the blue sky could be seen. He already knew the future.

“l have to wait for the remaining half of my cultivation to dissipate…”

Han Zhao closed his eyes and looked inside. When he dissipated his cultivation just now, half of his cultivation had already been used to temper his body. The remaining half of his cultivation was still slowly dissipating. This was because his meridians were damaged. Once his cultivation dissipated, it would be very difficult to retain his cultivation.

However, he was not worried. In any case, his cultivation had already dissipated. He would disperse them all and use them to temper his body.

Han Zhao felt that his strength had increased greatly, so he allowed the remaining power to slowly strengthen his physique..
