Ultimate Upgrading System

As for the sparkling white light on the pendant, it slowly weakened until it finally disappeared. And it once again returned to its normal appearance, just like before.    

    

Yang Ying shook his head in amusement. Now, with such a strange medium grade Treasure Artifact, he didn't know how to use it to unleash its power.    

    

However, there was nothing he could do in his haste. He could only wait for the next time.    

    

With this thought in mind, he stored the pendant into his Dantian Space.    

    

When the pendant arrived at the Dantian Space, the Nine Clouds Map that looked like a big boss suddenly felt threatened and hid to the side.    

    

Following the movement of the Nine Clouds Map, the flying ship magic treasure and the Sword Buzheng also tried to dodge to the side. However, it seemed that they did not dare to go towards the pendant. They could only float slightly towards the periphery of the Dantian before finally settling down.    

    

Yang Ying looked at everything within the Dantian. In his heart, he once again began to doubt the origin of the pendant. He did not know what it was after this pendant was complete.    

    

Now, he still had a magic treasure that he had yet to check. With this thought in mind, he took out the pearl.    

    

Yang Ying placed the bead in front of him and carefully examined it.    

    

The original bead was on top of it. There was a hint of the Desolation Intent, but when he took it out again, he realized that the Desolation Intent was no longer there.    

    

What was going on? Why did the Desolation Intent disappear?    

    

Yang Ying was puzzled, but he decided to put the matter aside for the time being.    

    

He focused his mind and squeezed out a drop of Essence Blood from his finger.    

    

He immediately formed a hand seal and controlled the drop of Essence Blood onto the bead.    

    

However, the moment the bead touched the Essence Blood, it emitted an imposing aura. Yang Ying once again felt the desolate intent from the bead.    

    

Perhaps it was because of this Qi, but the Essence Blood did not merge with the interior of the Essence Blood as usual.    

    

Yang Ying was stunned. He stared blankly at the scene in front of him. This was the first time that he realized that this drop of blood that recognized its master would not seep into the pearl.    

    

This was the first time he had heard of such a situation.    

    

Immediately, he forced out a drop of Essence Blood from his finger and drove it to the surface of the pearl.    

    

At the same time, he circulated all the true essence in his body and pressed it against the bead.    

    

The bead seemed to have sensed the threat, and an imposing aura suddenly burst out from it.    

    

The Essence Blood once again slid down and landed on the ground.    

    

Yang Ying felt helpless in his heart. Perhaps his strength was still too weak. He would give it a try once he reached the Golden Core Stage!    

    

He could only put this bead back into the Storage Ring.    

    

He stood up and looked at the time. It was already noon.    

    

He immediately walked out of the room and headed outside. When he arrived at the courtyard of Fifth House, he saw Sect Leader Qing Hongzi and Peak Lord Lee walking towards the courtyard from the outside.    

    

Immediately, he bowed and said. "Yang Ying greets Sect Master and Master!"    

    

Sect Leader Qing Hongzi raised his head, as if only now did he notice Yang Ying. "Yes, Ying! Are you going to the palace?"    

    

"Yes!" Yang Ying nodded lightly.    

    

"Yes, go. Be careful on the way!" Sect Leader Qing Hongzi said with concern, then continued walking forward. Suddenly, he turned his head and said, "Ying, you are here. Did you see anyone who wants to become a Tribulation Crossing?"    

    

"What? A Tribulation Crossing?" Yang Ying stopped when he heard this. He looked at Sect Leader Qing Hongzi and asked curiously.    

    

"En, two hours ago, the sky was suddenly filled with tribulation clouds. For some reason, just as we thought that the tribulation was about to arrive, the clouds of tribulation suddenly dispersed. None of the sects understood what was going on! " Sect Leader Qing Hongzi explained softly, but his eyes were fixed on Yang Ying.    

    

"En, I was in the room just now, but I didn't see anyone who wanted to break through to the Tribulation Crossing." When Yang Ying heard this, he didn't think too much about it and only replied softly.    

    

"Yes, if that is the case, you should hurry up and return!" When Sect Leader Qing Hongzi heard this and saw that Yang Ying spoke naturally, he gently waved his hand and turned around to continue walking towards the courtyard.    

    

Peak Lord Lee smiled faintly and gestured to Yang Ying to cheer him on. He also followed Yang Ying into the courtyard.    

    

Sect Leader Qing Hongzi actually did not understand why he would ask that question just now. However, at the moment before that, an intuition suddenly surged in his heart. This matter regarding the tribulation cloud was probably related to Yang Ying.    

    

That was why he asked. After listening to Yang Ying's answer and seeing that Yang Ying's expression did not seem to be fake, he knew that he most likely wanted to cross.    

    

Yang Ying turned around and walked out of Fifth House.    

    

All of a sudden, a thought emerged in Yang Ying's mind. Sect Leader Qing Hongzi just said that it was two hours ago. Wasn't that when he had just started to drip his blood to recognize the pendant as his master?    

    

Could it be that the tribulation cloud was related to this pendant?    

    

If that was the case, then what was the origin of this pendant and that thin rod?    

    

Yang Ying thought to himself. However, his feet paused for a moment when he thought of this matter, and then he once again flew out of the Qianyuan Valley.    

    

When he arrived at the Yan Kingdom's palace with familiarity, the guard at the palace entrance was precisely the guard on Ji Xue's birthday.    

    

That guard naturally had a deep impression of Yang Ying. In his understanding, this Yang Ying was someone who could trouble Princess Ji Xue's personal female attendant in the Snow Phoenix Palace to personally wait at the palace entrance for nearly two hours.    

    

When the guard saw that it was Yang Ying, he quickly bowed and said, "Sir, what brings you here?"    

    

"Yes, I am here to look for Elder Xia. But I want to see Ji Xue first." Yang Ying saw the other party's enthusiastic attitude, so he smiled and cupped his hands.    

    

"Princess Ji Xue?" The guard muttered softly, then said respectfully, "Sir, may I know your name?"    

    

"My surname is Yang." Yang Ying replied softly.    

    

"Yes, Princess Ji Xue said that if you come, you can go and find her." As the guard spoke, he pointed inside with his hand.    

    

"Mr. Yang, if you don't know the location, I can take you there."    

    

"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you!" Yang Ying smiled and cupped his hands towards the guard.    

    

The guard quickly waved his hand and smiled. "Sir is too polite!" As he spoke, he said to the three guards at the side, "I went to help Mr. Yang point the way and will be back in a while."    

    

The guards at the side all responded. The guard then led Yang Ying towards the left corridor.    

    

The two of them walked along the corridor and made a few turns.    

    

Just as Yang Ying was feeling dizzy, the guard suddenly stopped. "Mr. Yang, Princess Ji Xue's Snow Phoenix Palace is in front."
