"Hey, did you see that? Jiang Wang is heading that way." Soon, someone spotted Jiang Wang.

"Is he courting death?" Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of surprise.

"It seems Jiang Wang is heading to Vermilion Bird Cliff, a place fraught with danger. Does he think that just because he's a cultivator at the Innate Realm, he's fearless?" Some people recognized Jiang Wang's movements and sighed with regret.

Vermilion Bird Cliff is located at the deepest part of Crimson Feather Mountain, and even cultivators at the Heavenly Realm dare not set foot there lightly.

It is said that a sacred beast is buried there, whose ferocious power terrifies all directions.

Even more remnants of the Vermilion Bird bloodline remain.

...

Vermilion Bird Cliff.

It is ten zhang tall and a hundred meters long, resembling a sharp blade piercing the earth.

It points straight to the sky, with steep cliffs, as if a fiery red sky is suspended here, inspiring awe.

"That was close!" Jiang Wang thought to himself, relieved to have arrived at the foot of Vermilion Bird Cliff, his heart pounding.

At that moment, he looked up at Zhuque Cliff and felt as insignificant as an ant.

"I really hope I can stand out in this trial," Jiang Wang murmured.

Then, he turned his gaze to a majestic ancient palace in the distance.

There, there stands a towering old tree, bearing a golden fruit.

Those are Vermilion Bird Fruits!

"I heard that eating the Vermilion Bird Fruit can help one to condense one's divine consciousness." Jiang Wang couldn't help but get excited when he thought of that incredibly tempting scene.

"However, Vermilion Bird Cliff is too dangerous; we must be adequately prepared." In the end, Jiang Wang decided to rest there for a few days.

After all, it would not be a wise move to rush to Suzaku Cliff.

...

The next morning, the sun rose in the east, casting its golden rays.

Jiang Wang dressed himself neatly and flew towards Zhuque Cliff.

Although Vermilion Bird Cliff is protected by restrictions, cracks still exist, allowing cultivators to fly smoothly.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

One by one, cultivators flew in from all directions.

Their auras were incredibly powerful, and they all possessed cultivation levels of around the fifth or sixth level of Bone Tempering.

"Haha, another fool who doesn't know his own mortality has arrived. Once he's burned to ashes by Vermilion Bird Cliff, we can all share the Vermilion Bird Fruit." A burly young man carrying two swords grinned.

His name is Zhang Biao, and he is a cultivator at the ninth level of the Bone Tempering Realm.

Such cultivators are already top experts in the outer sect of Vermilion Bird Valley.

The others also looked at Jiang Wang with mocking expressions.

To them, Jiang Wang was a lucky charm, not only providing them with ample resources but also serving as a source of training.

"Hmph, how dare you ants desecrate me, Jiang Wang?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang snorted coldly. He strode forward, directly traversing the void, and rushed towards the giant tree.

brush!

His figure flashed, as fast as lightning and as swift as the wind.

Zhang Biao's words had clearly touched a nerve, making him furious.

"He actually dared to resist!" Upon seeing this, Zhang Biao's eyes darkened slightly. He carried two swords on his back and immediately charged forward.

Buzz!

A wave of energy spread out, and sharp blades of light slashed towards Jiang Wang.

Each strike was extremely fierce, tearing through the void, aiming to shatter Jiang Wang.

"A mere trifle!" Jiang Wang smiled indifferently.

Then he reached out a large hand.

Bang!

The hand reached out and struck at the flashing blades.

puff!

The blade flashed and shattered, but Jiang Wang's large hand continued to strike Zhang Biao.

"What?" Zhang Biao's pupils suddenly contracted when the large hand struck.

"This... he's a peak-level expert in Bone Tempering." Upon sensing the aura emanating from Jiang Wang, Zhang Biao was terrified.

Boom!

Jiang Wang slapped out with his large hand, and Zhang Biao's burly body flew backward.

Click!

The sound of bones breaking rang out, and Zhang Biao coughed up blood and staggered back, falling several feet away.

"Peak of Bone Tempering!" Zhang Biao exclaimed in fear, quickly taking out his waist token in an attempt to call for help.

"It's too late to ask for help now!" However, Jiang Wang's face was icy cold as he strode forward, approaching Zhang Biao.

Bang!

Jiang Wang kicked out and stomped hard on Zhang Biao's chest.

Click!

With his bones broken, Zhang Biao coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.

"I... I'm not reconciled!" he cried out in anguish.

"Since you're not convinced, then obediently become my stepping stone on the path of martial arts!" Jiang Wang looked down at Zhang Biao and said coldly.

Then, he reached out a hand, grabbed Zhang Biao by the neck, and lifted him up by force.

call!

Jiang Wang threw Zhang Biao out of the forest.

Suddenly, a demonic bird swooped down and devoured Zhang Biao's flesh and blood.

This is a black vulture, over ten feet long, exuding a sinister aura.

"Is this my trial stone?" Upon seeing this, Jiang Wang smiled, and then he transformed into a rainbow of light and sped towards the depths of Vermilion Bird Cliff.

This area is teeming with powerful demonic beasts, so he must be cautious.

...

Deep within Suzaku Cliff.

Jiang Wang encountered a group of poisonous snakes.

These venomous snakes were about three inches long. Their bodies writhed like pythons, and they emitted a foul stench that made people nauseous.

However, Jiang Wang was prepared and took out a poison-avoiding pill and swallowed it.

Then, he activated the Vermilion Bird Body Refining Technique, circulating his blood throughout his body, making his flesh as hard as iron.

Awooo!

Instantly, the venomous snake hissed and pierced through the thin membrane like an arrow, shooting towards Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang reached out and grabbed the venomous snake, then threw it into his pocket.

"If I go another hundred meters, I can pick the Vermilion Bird Fruit." Jiang Wang said with anticipation.

After walking a hundred meters, he raised his eyelids slightly and revealed a joyful smile.

A deep pool appeared ahead.

The pool water is emerald green, rippling gently like a jade ribbon, a sight to behold.

However, beneath this dark pool, scorching magma churns, releasing a terrifying aura.

"Lava?" Upon seeing this, Jiang Wang frowned.

It's truly bizarre that a lava lake could be formed within Mount Zhuque!

"Perhaps, the Vermilion Bird's Flame is contained there?" Jiang Wang pondered for a moment, then continued forward.

"Vermilion Bird Grass!" Jiang Wang stopped when he was more than 200 meters away from the lava lake.

Ahead, there was a clump of Vermilion Bird Grass.

Next to the privet grass, there was a flower about the size of a palm.

This is the Vermilion Bird Fruit, whose value is comparable to that of ordinary medicinal herbs.

"Haha, I didn't expect to find a Vermilion Bird Fruit here. It's perfect for helping me temper my flesh and blood." Upon seeing this, Jiang Wang's eyes gleamed, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Within Mount Sumeru lie some rare spiritual treasures, and the Sumeru Fruit is one of them.

"When two Vermilion Bird Fruits fuse, they produce Vermilion Bird True Flame. If I absorb it, I will definitely be able to refine a perfect Crimson Scale Battle Body, and may even obtain a trace of the Vermilion Bird's profound meaning. At that time, my strength will surely reach a new level and become astonishing." Jiang Wang's eyes gleamed.

"The Vermilion Bird True Flame is evolved from the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, and its power is extraordinary." Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to walk over and pick the Vermilion Bird Fruit.
