C177 They Left Without Saying Goodbye
A person was lying beside the fire, sleeping quietly. He did not know how long it took for him to wake up from his sleep.
"What is this place?"
Wu Chen sat up from the ground. His eyes were empty and a little dull. After a while, his consciousness returned and he recalled what had happened.
"Fire."
Without thinking, Wu Chen knew that this fire must have been lit by Shun Yan. The place where he was should be in a cave.
He got up from the ground and shook his head to wake himself up. Wu Chen looked at the cave.
"Shun Yan."
Wu Chen called, but the cave was empty. Except for the crackling sound of the fire, there was no response.
"Where did that woman go?"
Wu Chen muttered, but he did not think too much about it. At this moment, he suddenly saw something on a protruding rock in the cave. He walked over curiously.
It was a bottle and a Parchment Roll. There was also a piece of paper under the bottle. There were some words on it. It was very beautiful words. If he did not guess wrong, it should have been left by Shun Yan.
"This woman, did she leave?"
Seeing these things, Wu Chen couldn't help but think this way. He pulled out the paper from under the bottle and took a closer look. Indeed, as he had expected, that woman had already left.
"Wu Chen, I'm leaving. Don't worry about the Nine Nether Bird's corpse. I'll take it with me too. As for the Blood Essence that you need... I'll leave it in the bottle. Other than that, I also left you a Parchment Roll. Inside it is a saber technique manual. I believe it will be of some help to you. There are still eleven months left. It's the Competition of Multi Kingdoms. I hope you can come. "
Wu Chen smiled and put down the paper. He picked up the bottle, opened it, and nodded. Finally, that woman still had some conscience. She was willing to fulfill her promise and left him a bottle of the Nine Nether Bird's Blood Essence.
"Saber technique secret manual, let me take a look."
Wu Chen opened the Parchment Roll and looked at it. He was a little disappointed. This saber technique manual was only an Advanced Earth Ranked Martial Technique. It had no effect on him at all. In his mind, he had no idea how many martial arts he had casually taken out. They were not as simple as high-level Earth Realm martial arts.
If others were to find out about this, they would definitely curse out loud. The Advanced Earth Ranked Martial Technique was a very powerful skill. In the entire Hengling Domain... The other countries and regions didn't possess such a skill. If such a skill were to be spread out, it would surely cause a huge commotion. Even expert at Astral Reaching Stage would fight for it.
After casually throwing the Parchment Roll into the Storage Ring, Wu Chen no longer cared. Now that the Blood Essence of the Nine Nether Bird had been taken care of, the next thing he needed to do was to purify it. He would extract the bloodline that belonged solely to the Phoenix Bloodline from the Nine Nether Bird and then refine and absorb it. He would cultivate the Fire Phoenix Formula.
However, it was not an easy task to extract the Phoenix Bloodline from so many Blood Essence. He would need some other things as support in order to succeed.
He might be able to find those things in the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, but Wu Chen didn't have the patience to do so. He would go and find them himself. Therefore, it was necessary to leave the Demon Cloud Mountain Range and head to a big city.
Although there were a lot of Demonic Beast in Demon Cloud Mountain Range, it was a perfect place for him to cultivate. However, compared to the Fire Phoenix Formula, he still felt that cultivating the Fire Phoenix Formula was more important. The Fire Phoenix Formula and Imperishable Gilded Body Technique were the two major cultivation techniques that he focused on, and also the direction in which he worked hard.
After extinguishing the fire, Wu Chen walked out of the Demon Cloud Mountain Range. After walking for half a day, a huge city appeared in Wu Chen's sight.
Penglian City!
This was a city on the same scale as the Tiefeng City, just like the Tiefeng City. It was another big city that was used to defend against the Demonic Beast riots. Wu Chen had heard about this city before. It was about seven hundred miles away from the Tiefeng City, and it was quite far away.
The large-scale beast tide this time only affected the Tiefeng City and the Devil Cloud City. They were forced back by someone in the Tiefeng City, but it didn't spread to the Penglian City. Therefore, the situation in the Penglian City was pretty good. They weren't affected by this large-scale beast tide.
As for whether the Demonic Beast would attack the Penglian City or not, Wu Chen didn't care. What he needed the most right now was to find all the materials, purify the Blood Essence, extract the Phoenix Bloodline, and cultivate the second stage of the Fire Phoenix Art.
With this goal in mind, Wu Chen entered the Penglian City. He didn't wander around much and went straight to the shopping mall to buy the materials he needed.
Compared to the materials required to cultivate the Imperishable Gilded Body Technique, the materials needed to purify the bloodline were much simpler. They were all common items, and there were relatively few types of them. Therefore, Wu Chen quickly found all of them.
To him, the biggest difficulty in cultivating the Imperishable Gilded Body Technique was to find the materials. Because some materials were too hard to find, even in a city. For example, he cultivated the second layer of the Indestructible Golden Body Technique. It was to travel across different cities and regions to gather materials and borrow the influence of the Walmart. Only then did he successfully collect all the materials, the amount of materials, the variety of materials, and so on. The huge consumption was not something an ordinary person could bear. This also reflected the difficulty of cultivating the Martial Arts and tempering the body. It was not something an ordinary person could imagine.
However, cultivating the Fire Phoenix Formula was different. The required materials were usually very simple. There were few of them, and there were also few types. Basically, a large city could gather all of them. In terms of gathering materials, there was no difficulty at all.
However, it was a huge mistake to say that cultivating the Fire Phoenix Formula was simple. This was because the most important thing in cultivating the Fire Phoenix Formula was the Phoenix Bloodline. It didn't have the bloodline of the Phoenix as its reliance. If you wanted to cultivate the Fire Phoenix Formula, you would have to break through the boundary of the Fire Phoenix Formula. That was not something one could hope for, and the Phoenix was the Divine Beasts. It was so mysterious that ordinary people couldn't even find it, even if it was a different type of Demonic Beast that possessed a Phoenix Bloodline. Furthermore, even if one was able to find it, it would still be difficult to find it. They might not be able to find it because most of the Demonic Beast with a Phoenix Bloodline were very powerful. They were simply no match for it. For example, the Nine Nether Bird this time. Its strength had reached the fifth step. It was very terrifying. If it was Wu Chen alone, luckily, Shun Yan was a powerful helper. Only then did he succeed.
Therefore, no matter which technique it was, it was not easy to cultivate. If he wanted to cultivate it successfully, he had to spend a lot of energy and effort. Otherwise, there was no way he could succeed.
