"Wow, is this the Vermilion Bird Mountains?" Jiang Wang exclaimed in awe as he looked at the surrounding scenery.
His heart was filled with fervent passion.
"This Vermilion Bird Mountain Range has a long history. It is the ancestral land left by the ancient great sect, the Vermilion Bird lineage. There are tens of thousands of spiritual essences and Vermilion Bird remains in it. You can search for them and see if you can find any opportunities," said the Vermilion Bird phantom.
"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Jiang Wang bowed, then left the mountain to search for the spiritual essence.
Buzz!
Just after Jiang Wang left, ripples appeared in the originally calm void, and then a crimson Vermilion Bird emerged. The Vermilion Bird cried out, flapped its wings and flew high, tearing through the void and disappearing into the horizon, its whereabouts unknown.
...
"I have found the Vermilion Bird Token, but unfortunately, my cultivation level is too low. Otherwise, I could have swept across the land and obtained great fortune." On the mountain where the Vermilion Bird Token was located, Jiang Wang clenched his fists, his eyes revealing a resolute light.
At this moment, he desperately wanted to grow up quickly.
Because his talent is far from sufficient, even with the Vermilion Bird Token, it might not be of any use.
Only by reaching the Quasi-King realm or entering the Tongyou realm can one secure a place in the Vermilion Bird lineage.
Otherwise, if those ancestors are angered, there is a risk of death.
The Zhuque Mountains are vast and boundless, with beautiful scenery and a spiritual aura, where many ancient trees reach for the sky.
Here, treasures abound, and many spiritual essences are hard to find in the Southern Wilderness.
"This is indeed a good place for training, but unfortunately, obtaining the Vermilion Bird Token is not an easy task."
"After all, this Vermilion Bird Token is just a token; it doesn't have a spirit on it. To establish a connection with it, you need the blood of the Vermilion Bird," Jiang Wang murmured.
"I can't help you with these things either," the phantom of the Vermilion Bird said.
"I understand," Jiang Wang nodded.
Although the Vermilion Bird Mountains are vast, nothing here can escape the notice of a quasi-king level expert.
"Vermilion Bird essence blood?" At this moment, in another area, the Jiang Clan Ancestor's eyes showed surprise.
"No wonder Jiang Wang took out the Vermilion Bird Token. It seems he's really in trouble."
After pondering for a moment, the patriarch of the Jiang clan said, "Since he has encountered trouble, I will give him some help."
"Let's see how far this kid can go."
After saying that, the Jiang family patriarch had a thought.
Suddenly, within an ancient forest, a drop of golden liquid floated out.
call out!
The golden liquid swept through the air and entered the Vermilion Bird Token.
The Vermilion Bird Order shimmered with light, creating a space that absorbed the drop of liquid.
"With this drop of blood, you should be able to reach the second level of the Divine Power Realm, right?" A smile appeared on the lips of the Jiang Clan Ancestor.
"Thank you for your blessing, Ancestor." Jiang Wang was filled with excitement when the Vermilion Bird phantom delivered the blood.
Then he continued on his way.
...
As Jiang Wang continued exploring the Vermilion Bird Mountains, cultivators from various sects also arrived one after another.
"That Jiang Wang is a complete waste. It's been two years and he hasn't made any progress at all."
"Heh, Jiang Wang is destined to be a mortal. How easy is it for him to step into the Innate Realm?"
"In my opinion, after he died, we will have already dug up the remains of his parents."
...
Along the way, young men and women from various factions mocked and ridiculed the Jiang family, completely disregarding them.
The Jiang family members were furious but dared not speak out.
After all, who can blame them when they have a future king backing them up?
...
Vermilion Bird Valley is a canyon.
The canyon was shrouded in mist, like clouds and fog, and the mist seemed to carry a hint of heat.
Vermilion Bird Valley is home to many Vermilion Birds.
The Vermilion Bird clan is most skilled at rebirth through fire and nirvana.
Vermilion Bird Valley is also a pure land, nurturing all kinds of divine medicines.
There are even ruins of the Vermilion Bird in this place.
This place is extremely hidden; without someone to guide you, an ordinary person would never be able to find it.
In recent days, members of the Vermilion Bird Clan have been coming here in search of opportunities.
"The Vermilion Bird Fruit Tree has actually borne nine fruits!" A cry of surprise rang out from deep within Vermilion Bird Valley.
"What, nine Vermilion Bird Fruits?" Upon hearing this, the nearby cultivators' eyes burned with desire, and they couldn't help but get excited.
The Vermilion Bird Fruit is the main ingredient for refining the Kingly Elixir, and for cultivators in the Body Tempering Realm, it is practically a rare treasure.
At that moment, a cultivator took the Vermilion Bird Fruit and consumed it.
Bang!
Instantly, a surge of powerful energy erupted from his abdomen, flowing like a torrent into his meridians.
"Ah!" The cultivator immediately let out a scream.
This energy was terrifying; it was far beyond what a Body Tempering Realm cultivator could absorb, and it almost blew his body apart.
"The energy contained within the Vermilion Bird Fruit exceeds the tolerance range of a Body Tempering Realm cultivator." Someone nearby shook their head.
"Sigh." Many people sighed and had no choice but to leave.
Vermilion Bird Valley is a forbidden place. Unless you are extremely powerful, anyone who ventures in rashly will most likely be burned to ashes.
...
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days have passed since the Martial Sect Trial ended.
During this period, Jiang Wang also made a lot of progress.
Unfortunately, he never managed to condense his divine consciousness.
He only managed to condense a fragment of divine rune by relying on the mysterious power of the Vermilion Bird Mark.
Moreover, his frail physique meant that this was the limit of his abilities.
"Am I going to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" Jiang Wang frowned.
"Huh, I feel like the spiritual energy in those essences is even stronger!" Suddenly, Jiang Wang's eyes lit up as he discovered this secret.
"I'm going to search for spiritual essence!" Jiang then headed towards the mountains and forests ahead.
...
Rumble!
In the mountains and forests, in front of a huge cave, a giant rock has rolled down.
Amidst the rubble, a medicinal herb is growing vigorously.
That was none other than a Fire Phoenix Grass!
Fire Phoenix Grass, which can be used as an aid in alchemy.
At the same time, it is also the main ingredient for refining royal-grade Yuan Dan.
"Haha, I didn't expect to find Fire Phoenix Grass here. If I can obtain it, I can refine royal-grade pills." A burst of laughter rang out.
Then a group of ragged cultivators walked over.
This is a group of demon cultivators, led by a young demon named Mo Yuan, who possesses the peak of the sixth level of the Divine Wheel realm. This time, he is leading a group of powerful demons into this landscape map for training.
After entering the Vermilion Bird Mountains, Mo Yuan was ambushed.
Fortunately, he had a protective amulet, and he had a variety of ways to save his life.
Under these circumstances, he fought his way out and escaped from the Vermilion Bird Mountains.
"Damn the Vermilion Bird Clan! Once I reach the Divine Power Realm, I will annihilate you all!" Mo Yuan was furious.
He was furious at losing three hundred demon disciples.
If he weren't wary of the Vermilion Bird lineage's strength, he would have already overturned the table and started a fight.
At this moment, dozens of human cultivators have gathered in this valley.
"There's a cave there, and the aura inside is quite unusual." He hesitated slightly.
