Stealing Light Through a Hole in the Wall Requires Being Only One Wall Away
"Oh?"
Zhou Mu looked over and raised his hand to beckon.
Suddenly, the token flew over.
The token is quite heavy and has an elegant shape. On the front, there is a groove engraved with the word "Xia".
At this moment, the visitor said:
"This item must have been left behind by someone from the past in the secret realm. Anyone who possesses this token will not be affected by the space within the secret realm and can freely manipulate its power, which is equivalent to having a privilege. Therefore, it is called the Privilege Token."
A glint flashed in Zhou Mu's eyes:
How many of these tokens have been found?
"Your Majesty," the Human Dao said.
"Only this one has been found so far."
"Find as many as possible."
Zhou Mu gave the order, paused, and then said:
"Also, don't let too many people know about this, understand?"
"Your Majesty, please rest assured."
The visitor nodded, and seeing Zhou Mu wave his hand, he stood up and left.
"Privilege Token."
After the visitor left, Zhou Mu toyed with the token in his hand, a smile appearing on his lips:
"Interesting."
Who in this world doesn't like privilege?
With this, some things will be much easier to carry out.
On Hidden Origin Peak.
"It seems Gu Chen has completed his mission."
Lu Changzhi slowly woke up on the recliner.
He just heard a system notification.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed true.
"As the master, the host receives: ten drops of Saint Rank Peak Grade Beast Race blood— Luan Bird essence; one Saint Rank Peak Grade item— Soul-Snatching Banner; and a random enhancement—5 units of Qi and Blood."
"As expected, the sign-in rewards are related to distance."
Lu Changzhi said softly.
The closer the distance, the easier it is to achieve, and the most commendable aspect is basically random enhancement.
"However, the essence blood wasn't from a dragon."
With a thought, the essence blood of the Luan Bird appeared in Lu Changzhi's hand.
Ten drops isn't much.
However, the moment it appeared, the powerful blood energy contained within its essence caused fluctuations in the surrounding void.
Suddenly, a fierce wind arose out of nowhere, swirling around them.
He held it in his palm for only a moment, yet Lu Changzhi felt considerable pressure. It was as if a powerful Luan Bird, contained within his blood essence, was radiating its aura and intimidating the outside world.
After a moment of reflection, Lu Changzhi came to a conclusion.
It has nothing to do with the strength or weakness of the Luan Bird.
This time, the essence blood was clearly not as good as the lesson learned from the White Tiger essence blood in Qin Li's Disciple Acceptance Gift Pack.
"Chirp chirp."
Xiao Ming's shout came from one side.
Before the shout had even faded, a flash of red light appeared, followed by a smooth sensation on the back of Lu Changzhi's hand.
Xiao Ming was standing in mid-air, rubbing his little head against Lu Changzhi's hand.
Although it can't speak, judging from this posture, it's saying something in every way:
"I want it, give it to me now!"
Seeing this, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but smile.
"Since you want some, here you go."
Xiao Ming is, after all, Beast Race, and the path to advancement for Beast Race differs from that for Human Race.
However, since arriving at Hidden Origin Peak, the Beast Race hasn't used much of its resources.
They ate a lot of food, both human and animal-based.
Right now, we have birds all around, which will come in handy.
The essence blood flew out, Xiao Ming made a "chirp" sound. His body remained unchanged, but his head grew bigger, and he opened his mouth wide to swallow the essence blood.
The next moment.
"Boom!"
When the essence and blood enter the body, the power of the Luan Bird's blood and qi within it is immediately activated.
A loud boom came from inside Xiao Ming's body, as if something had exploded.
Even Lu Changzhi was standing nearby, noticed that Xiao Ming's body had swelled up a bit with the sound of that muffled thud.
At this moment, Xiao Ming stretched his neck a little longer.
Burp~
Immediately, it returned to its small place, lowered its body, hunched its head, and began to rest.
"This truly lives up to its reputation as a sacred beast."
Lu Changzhi's eyes flashed with a strange light.
Although Xiao Ming is still young, his physical endurance is clearly far beyond that of ordinary people.
These ten drops of essence blood, anyone else could easily swallow them in one gulp.
However, it is highly likely that they will die from their bodies exploding due to the violent power within.
Beast Race do have Beast Race own unique advantages.
Regaining his attention, Lu Changzhi's gaze fell on another reward item.
[Soul-Snatching Banner]: Saint Rank Peak Grade. Extremely effective against soul-related entities, it can forcibly capture wandering spirits and ghosts into the banner for control. Its effect is limited against excessively powerful souls...
"Is this yet another one related to the soul?"
Lu Changzhi thought for a moment.
He also possessed the Soul-Severing Needle from his good neighbor, and its rank was even higher than that of the flag.
Of course, there are still differences between the two.
The key is attack, primarily targeting a specific soul.
Flags, on the other hand, emphasize control and suppression, targeting a much wider range.
Each has its own emphasis, which complements each other perfectly.
In short, it was still a pretty good result.
Another day or so has passed.
Gu Chen and Xiao Ye returned in a flying boat.
"Master."
Upon their return, the two immediately approached Lu Changzhi. Gu Chen spoke up:
"During this trip, I discovered some things."
Immediately, he told Lu Changzhi about his experience and the information he had obtained from the Soul Refining Cup.
"Devil Qi, evil spirits, I'll give you that kind of pill..."
Lu Changzhi looked at Gu Chen and thought to himself:
"That makes sense."
After dealing with those Buddhist Order with his broadsword last time, judging from the martial arts techniques they revealed, he guessed that the Buddhist Order were hiding something.
And now, just as expected.
"Since they're still cultivating Evil Spirit, then it's very likely that there are still methods to obtain Devil Qi?"
Lu Changzhi had a guess in his mind.
Devil Qi, like the Spiritual Qi cultivated by humans, usually only appears where Devil Race exist.
Therefore, it can be inferred that either there are Devil Race in the Buddhist Order, or they have a method to obtain Devil Qi.
If it's the former, it can only be described as having wicked intentions.
But if it's the latter, then it's a different story; it's like playing with fire.
Despite his current state, Xue Chou is nothing but a small fry compared to the major powers.
But this is entirely a demonic factor and cannot represent the Devil Race.
If a place can easily obtain Devil Qi.
This likely indicates something.
That place is very close to where the Devil Race live.
The prerequisite for stealing light by chiseling a hole in the wall is that there is only one wall separating the two places.
"It seems we need to ask the sect leader and the others about this."
First, determine the approximate location, so you have a better idea of where it is.
If you're raising demons, turn them into gift packages.
If there is a place to obtain Devil Qi, whether it is for future plans to guard the land and wait for demons, or to prevent problems before they occur, it will be a good preparation.
Putting his mind aside for the moment, Lu Changzhi looked at Xiao Ye and asked:
"Was this trip fruitful?"
Xiao Ye nodded, his expression complex, and said:
"Aid the Azure Gate claims to save Jishi world and its people, yet along the way they have witnessed ordinary people living in dire straits, and Aid the Azure Gate, though capable, chooses not to act."
"The Buddhist Order claims to be the greatest benefactor in the world, but judging from their actions in Clear Cloud Town, they are by no means what they claim to be; rather, they use the name of great benevolence to commit great evils."
Xiao Ye took a deep breath and then said:
"We can't just listen to what other people or other forces say; we need to learn through practice and see what they actually do."
