Chapter 3372: Vermillion Bird Treasure Technique

. Refining the Vermillion Bird Dao Bone

and breaking through the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm,

Shen Changqing’s strength naturally increased.

Simultaneously,

while refining the Vermillion Bird Dao Bone, he also comprehended the Vermillion Bird Treasure Technique.

This technique,

like other innate Chaos beasts, is a natural divine power inherent in their bloodline.

And this divine power

bears a familiar name—Nanming Lihuo!

It shares the same name as the Nanming Lihuo of the Vermillion Phoenix Clan in the universe.

However, the difference lies in the fact that

the Nanming Lihuo of the Vermillion Phoenix Clan and the Nanming Lihuo contained in the Vermillion Bird Treasure Technique are two different concepts.

Or rather,

their power is simply not on the same level.

The Nanming Lihuo of the Vermillion Phoenix Clan, however powerful, can only threaten Immortal King-level warriors at best.

However,

the Nanming Lihuo contained in the Vermillion Bird Treasure Technique is powerful enough to cause a Semi-Saint to bleed.

However,

like other techniques,

the Vermillion Bird Treasure Technique is incomplete.

Even so, obtaining the Suzaku Magic significantly boosted Shen Changqing’s strength.

With a single thought, the surrounding void suddenly heated up, as if a supreme immortal fire was brewing. A terrifying Suzaku phantom condensed from within, seemingly capable of incinerating the primordial universe and drying up even the boundless sea of stars.

A moment later,

the strange vision dissipated,

and Shen Changqing exhaled.

Even with his current cultivation, unleashing the Suzaku Magic at its full potential would require significant strain.

Yet, the power of this divine ability was truly exhilarating.

In a sense,

the Suzaku Magic and the Divine Phoenix Magic share similarities,

but the difference is that

the Suzaku Magic is more complete.

Therefore,

if truly unleashed

, this magic would be even more powerful than the Divine Phoenix Magic Shen Changqing currently possessed.

In fact,

no matter what kind of magic,

if it were fully developed, its power would be extraordinary.

But alas.

To fully deduce this magic, a Chaos Immortal Stone is required, but Shen Changqing has never seen one.

“The Five Elements Universe corresponds to the five internal organs, with the heart being the most important, and the heart being of the fire element. Therefore, the first one to be opened is the Fire Universe!”

“Among the Five Elements, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, and wood generates fire!”

“So, the next one I should open should be the Earth Universe!”

Shen Changqing’s mind flashed back to records about the Five Elements and the cultivation methods contained in the ancient immortal scriptures.

The Five Elements’ mutual generation!

And the Five Elements’ mutual restraint!

The two are naturally different.

While

the order for opening the Five Elements Universe doesn’t necessarily require mutual generation, if the Five Elements are mutually restraining or non-generative, the difficulty of opening it will increase accordingly.

Therefore,

the Five Elements’ mutual generation

is the most appropriate order for opening.

Even though Shen Changqing was confident in himself, he wouldn’t create trouble out of thin air.

However,

the Fire Universe had just been opened.

To further develop the Earth Universe, there’s still a long way to go.

Only by cultivating the Fire Universe to perfection can one uncover the opportunity within and subsequently develop a new Five Elements Universe.

With this thought,

Shen Changqing calmed down and began refining the highest-grade immortal stones, using the immortal energy contained within them to elevate the foundations of the universe.

This

time,

Shen Changqing’s breakthrough in cultivation

hadn’t caused any commotion.

The outside world was completely unaware, but in just two thousand years since the battle with the Xuanqing Immortal Sect, he had already achieved a breakthrough in cultivation.

In reality,

many outside forces believed that

Shen Changqing’s current seclusion was actually a recovery from his injuries.

Rumors of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect battle

had long been circulating.

Although Shen Changqing had won, he had also sustained significant injuries.

An immortal Dao injury!

How could it be so easily recovered?

For even an immortal semi-saint, let alone an Immortal Emperor, recovering from Dao injuries would take more than a millennium or two.

But in reality,

No one would have imagined the existence of the Seven Profound Divine Pagoda.

Such a heaven-defying treasure

could instantly heal even the most lingering wounds.

…

“The Xuanqing Immortal Sect was destroyed?”

Venerable Jueming emerged from retreat once more, his expression slightly shifting as he listened to the report from his cultivators.

He hadn’t imagined that

, despite his brief moment of enlightenment and a brief retreat of less than ten thousand years, such a thing would have occurred in Shenfeng Province.

Venerable Jueming was certainly no stranger to the existence of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect.

While it was true that he had attained enlightenment in the ancient times, he had also traveled in ancient times and even met Venerable Xuanqing, giving him some understanding of the power of this ancient semi-saint.

Now,

with the founding of the Mingguang Holy Land,

Venerable Jueming considered the Xuanqing Immortal Sect a formidable enemy.

Therefore,   he knew a great deal

about this force .   But what Venerable Jueming hadn’t imagined was that the vast Xuanqing Immortal Sect would be destroyed so quickly.   Moreover,   the force that could destroy the Xuanqing Immortal Sect   was something Venerable Jueming had never imagined.

The Heavenly Demon Sacred Land!

Venerable Jueming would never have imagined that the force that would destroy the Xuanqing Immortal Sect would be the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land.

After all—

the Xuanqing Immortal Sect was ruled by a true immortal.

At this thought,

Venerable Jueming suddenly thought, and his expression shifted.

“Do you have any footage of that battle?”

“Please, Your Excellency!”

An Immortal Emperor respectfully handed over a stone with a photo-recording stone. Venerable Jueming swept his mind over it, and a phantom image suddenly materialized.

As he watched the scene before him, Venerable Jueming’s expression darkened, his gaze fixed on the charred wooden stick in Shen Changqing’s hand.

“The aura of a top-tier semi-saint!”

“As expected of an ancient powerhouse reincarnated and reborn, his foundation is truly extraordinary—”

Venerable Jueming had originally assumed that the other party had killed Venerable Xuanqing because they had used their trump card.

If that were the case, then Venerable Xuanqing’s death was a worthy one.

After all,

what Venerable Jueming feared most

was the power he had felt that day.   Even thinking back on

that sword energy now filled him with a chill.   If the Xuanqing Immortal Sect could consume their trump card, then Venerable Jueming’s greatest fear would vanish.   But he hadn’t anticipated how   things would unfold .   From beginning to end,   Shen Changqing hadn’t used that trump card, instead relying on a supreme treasure to forcibly withstand Venerable Xuanqing’s pressure, ultimately forcing him to succumb to the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man.   ”Useless thing!”   Upon seeing this, Venerable Jueming couldn’t help but curse again.   A   dignified ancient Semi-Saint, one who had survived the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man three times, couldn’t defeat a mere Immortal Emperor. It truly brought disgrace to Changsheng.   But despite his anger, Venerable Jueming was helpless.   The Xuanqing Immortal Sect was destroyed.   Venerable Xuanqing had even fallen.   The outcome of this battle forced him to reevaluate the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, or more precisely, the Heavenly Demon Lord.   ”Shen Hong!”   Venerable Jueming took a deep breath, the anger gradually fading from his face, though his expression remained gloomy and unsightly.   The annihilation of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect had heightened his respect for the Heavenly Demon Saint.   He had assumed that this was merely the reincarnation of an ancient powerhouse, perhaps holding some hidden cards, but not many.   However, the outcome of this battle had taught Venerable Jueming that he must not underestimate the opponent.   If matters at the Heavenly Demon Holy Land were not handled properly, it would be a serious problem.   With this in mind,   Venerable Jueming glanced at the wooden stick, a subtle glint of greed returning to his eyes.   A treasure imbued with the aura of a peak semi-saint was too great for him to ignore.   He was now   only half a step away from the Seven Tribulations.   Honestly, Venerable Jueming himself wasn’t entirely sure if he could survive the seventh of the Five Degenerations of Heavenly Beings.   Therefore   , for years, Venerable Jueming had diligently gathered as many cultivation resources as possible, striving to bolster his foundation and prepare for the impending Five Degenerations.   If one could obtain a treasure like this, imbued with the Dao rhyme of a peak semi-saint, and comprehend the profound Dao within, one’s own strength would undoubtedly be further enhanced.   However,   even so,   Venerable Jueming did not act rashly.   The Heavenly Demon Holy Land was currently allied with the other three immortal sects, and any single move could affect the entire system. He would not easily attack the Heavenly Demon Holy Land unless absolutely necessary.   ”I will be away for a while. Until then, the affairs of the Holy Land will fall to you. Remember, do not arbitrarily cause any trouble. If there is anything difficult to decide, please consult me!”   Venerable Jueming said calmly, his gaze fixed on the Immortal Emperor Daochen.   The Mingguang Holy Land was currently growing in power, with a considerable number of Immortal Emperors, many more powerful than the Immortal Emperor Daochen.   Even so, Venerable Jueming held the Immortal Emperor Daochen in a higher regard than he did for the other Immortal Emperors.   This   was not due to his strength, but rather to his loyalty and his satisfactory conduct.   Immortal Emperor Daochen suppressed his excitement and, with a bow, declared, “I will do my utmost to ensure I do not disappoint the Holy Lord!”   ”Yes.”   Venerable Jueming nodded, flicked his finger, and a jade talisman landed before Immortal Emperor Daochen.   ”This jade talisman was forged from a supreme treasure found by this Venerable in the past. It contains a power of my own. With this power, I can slay anyone below the level of a Semi-Saint.”   ”Thank you, Holy Lord!”   Immortal Emperor Daochen clutched the jade talisman tightly, his expression unconcealed.   If Venerable Jueming’s previous order merely granted him the authority to issue orders within the Mingguang Holy Land, then this jade talisman truly gave him the necessary confidence. A   supreme treasure imbued with the power of a Semi-Saint was more than enough to slay those below the level of a Semi-Saint.   With this treasure as his trump card, Immortal Emperor Daochen felt even more confident.   The other high-ranking officials of the Mingguang Holy Land witnessed this scene, their expressions changing slightly. As they looked at Immortal Emperor Daochen, a deep sense of dread grew within them.   And—   a subtle hint of jealousy.   To be so highly regarded by Venerable Jueming was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for other Immortal Emperors.
