“Bang!”
A subtle sound was heard in the wooden house. Gu Yuan opened his eyes and found that it was already late at night. He placed his gaze on the iron sheet that was being roasted by the red flames. The surface of the iron sheet had completely cracked, and the contents inside were completely exposed to Gu Yuan.
After putting away the red flame, Gu Yuan observed it carefully. It was a silver-white fragment. The reason why he was sure it was a fragment was that Gu Yuan could clearly see irregular tooth pitches around it, which obviously meant it was separated by external force.
"What the hell is this?"
Gu Yuan looked over and over at the iron sheet that had changed after being roasted. The surface of the iron sheet had turned silver-white, looking like a piece of silver foil, and on the surface of the silver foil, irregular lines were attached to it.
"Could it be a fragment of a treasure map?"
Looking at the mysterious patterns on it, Gu Yuan felt that his guess was very likely correct.
"Forget it, let's put it away first and see if there's a chance to get other fragments later."
After putting away the fragments, Gu Yuan sat down cross-legged, then closed his eyes slightly and examined his lower abdomen.
Next to the pale yellow spiritual vein, there is a red spiritual vein. It is the second spiritual vein given to him by the system, a fire-attributed spiritual vein.
"My technique is the Myriad Transformations Soul Devouring Technique, but it was previously earth-attributed. Now that I have a fire spirit vein, will it transform into a dual-attribute technique?"
After exchanging it for a second-level demon core with fire attribute, Gu Yuan held it in his hand and tried to practice his skills. Then he was surprised to find that he could actually absorb and refine the energy in the demon core with fire attribute!
"As expected! I can only practice one technique at a time, but after I obtained the fire attribute spirit vein, the Myriad Transformations Soul Devouring Technique automatically became a dual-attribute technique. This way, I can refine both earth and fire attribute demon cores at the same time!"
"I don't know if the attributes of one technique improve, and the other technique improves accordingly, or if they improve separately. However, the earth attribute of my Wanhua Shiling Jue is now a third-grade technique, while the fire attribute is still first-grade. I think they should improve separately."
After exhaling, Gu Yuan felt a little excited and a little annoyed.
His dual attributes undoubtedly give him many advantages in battle, but correspondingly, he also has to put in more effort. As the saying goes, "more skills are better than less", Gu Yuan feels that he needs to start practicing.
"Let's first raise the fire attribute to the third level. This way, like the third level of earth attribute, it won't be prone to shortcomings."
Gu Yuan did what he said and spent 4.5 million to exchange for 30 level 4 fire attribute demon cores, and then began his own upgrade journey.
Because he had previous experience in refining, Gu Yuan was able to refine the cores with ease this time. It took him only two days to refine all thirty demon cores and successfully raised the fire attribute to the third level.
However, there were no residual souls among the thirty demon cores, which made Gu Yuan smack his lips in regret. Otherwise, he could have improved the origin of his soul.
"This is a dual-attribute technique. This should be the only one on the continent, right? And there will be other attributes in the future. It would be great if we could have a space attribute or a time attribute. If that doesn't work, a more violent thunder attribute would be fine too!"
"But now that I have the fire attribute, although it's said that more skills are better than less, there's also a saying that goes, 'You can't chew too much.' I still need to carefully plan the main direction of my future cultivation, otherwise I won't be able to master anything in the future, which is not acceptable."
After pondering for a while, Gu Yuan decided to use the fire attribute to attack and the earth attribute to defend. After all, the situation is different now, and it is best to have both offense and defense.
"However, there is no time to cultivate fire-attributed spiritual skills right now. It is better to hone the spiritual skills I have now first, and then cultivate fire-attributed attack spiritual skills and earth-attributed defensive spiritual skills later!"
Walking out of the wooden house, he took a deep breath. After practicing for two whole days, Gu Yuan's face showed a little fatigue.
He shook his head and walked towards the pawn shop.
The pawnshop was not doing well after it opened, so he had to think of some way to do it.
…
On the fourth floor of Xunhuan Tower, Gu Shang closed her eyes tightly, sweat poured down her face, and she looked extremely painful.
In her body, the purple pill was slowly dissolving, continuously releasing its medicinal power to heal the injuries on Gu Shang's soul.
"boom!"
A terrifying pressure spread out for thousands of miles from Gu Shang, and wherever it passed, it was like a mountain pressing down on one's head.
At this moment, everyone in the Beastmaster City was awakened.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Wan'er, who was practicing, slowly opened her eyes, looked in a certain direction with a pale face, and a tear mark flowed down her cheek.
In the Abyss Pawnshop, the golden vulture was frightened by the terrifying pressure and flew around in panic.
The familiar pressure made Gu Yuan's body tremble slightly. Then he looked somewhere and murmured, "Is it finally coming?"
Outside the Beast Taming City, two old men stood with their feet on the void, their eyes piercing through the void, looking at the towering building in the city.
"Sure enough, that's where the Fourth Judgment is hiding."
The old man who was speaking was wearing a snow-white robe, had snow-white hair, and held a whisk in his hand. He looked like an immortal, and the faint aura emanating from him was suffocating.
"Master Xue, after all these years, you still love playing tricks on me!"
The other old man was hunched over, his face as dry and lifeless as a thousand-year-old tree.
"Hehe, Cang Gui, after all these years, you're still stuck at the eighth level of Spiritual Emperor, while I'm already at the ninth level!"
Master Xue shook his whisk, with a hint of sarcasm in his words.
"Hmph! The reason I can't break through is a problem with my martial arts!" Cang Gui said disdainfully.
"Hey, if you can't break through, just say you can't break through. What excuses are you looking for? Besides, it's actually very simple to break through. Join my Blood Spirit Sect and I guarantee that you will break through to the ninth-level Spirit Emperor within three months. How about it?" Master Xue looked at Cang Gui and said.
"Come on! Your Blood Spirit Sect is not a good place. I won't go there."
Cang Gui seemed to be a little afraid of the Blood Spirit Sect mentioned by Master Xue, and would rather give up the opportunity to advance to the ninth level.
"I think you have lived like a dog for so many years. Could it be that my Blood Spirit Sect cannot accommodate a big Buddha like you?" said Master Xue.
"Okay, stop talking about this. Your Blood Spirit Sect is a place where people are eaten alive. I still want to live for two more years!"
Regarding Cang Gui's refusal, Xue Fuzi was not at all surprised and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go. Don't delay the important matter."
Looking towards the city, Cang Gui's eyes were filled with eagerness. "It is said that the Fourth Judge is a great beauty. I must see what she looks like!"
"Don't be careless, or you might not live to see her face."
The pressure came and went quickly. When all the pressure was absorbed into Gu Shang's body, she suddenly opened her eyes and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"A ninth-level Spiritual Emperor and an eighth-level Spiritual Emperor, they really think highly of me!"
The breath emanating from Gu Shang became colder and colder, and the moisture in the air actually condensed into ice under this breath, and then fell to the ground with a snap.
His lips moved slightly, like a call from hell: "Since you are here, then stay!"
