Fang Han stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to say. Sun Shihua, on the other hand, quickly stepped forward to thank him.
"So it's Fellow Cheng Hao. Thank you for killing Song Tengfei. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for us to keep him here!"
Cultivators in this world rarely addressed each other as Fellow Cultivators. However, Sun Shihua had met Cheng Hao a few times, and Cheng Hao had always addressed them as Fellow Cultivators. Hence, Sun Shihua imitated Cheng Hao and cupped her fists in greeting.
"Fellow Cultivator Sun, you're too kind!"
Cheng Hao nodded and smiled. His gaze was fixed on Fang Han from the beginning. He used his Divine Perception to check on Fang Han. Just as Cheng Hao had expected, although Fang Han had reached the half-step Virtual Immortal Realm, he was unable to break through because his opportunity had been snatched away.
"It's fate that brought us together. Fellow Daoists and I are also fated to meet. How about this … I'll give you one each of these two king-grade spirit veins as a token of my sincerity!"
With a wave of his hand, Cheng Hao waved his sleeves. The two King-level Spirit Veins were like two extremely condensed white Immortal Rivers. With the sound of waves, they landed in front of Fang Han and Sun Shihua.
After all, Fang Han was the main character. No matter what, he would become a Heavenly Lord. Even if Cheng Hao stole all of his opportunities, it would be difficult to change this outcome.
Cheng Hao's goal was simple. He could allow Fang Han to become a Heavenly Lord, but he could not allow him to become a peak Heavenly Lord who could suppress other Heavenly Lords. Fang Han, who had the strength of an ordinary Lord of Heaven, met his requirements the best.
"Both of you are already on the verge of breaking through. Now that you have this King-level Spirit Vein, you will definitely be able to break through!"
Cheng Hao smiled warmly. He did not care about Sun Shihua, but he had to control Fang Han's cultivation progress.
There was a huge difference in strength between devouring Spirit Veins and using the Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens to advance to the Virtual Immortal Realm. What Cheng Hao wanted to do now was to block Fang Han's Trayastrimsa Heavens treasure from upgrading, so that this treasure would never be able to unleash its full potential.
Fang Han had many tricks up his sleeve, but there were only a few that were truly frightening.
Firstly, his terrifying cultivation speed allowed him to constantly devour and refine to increase his cultivation level. Furthermore, he didn't have to worry about being troubled by inner demons.
Secondly, he had mastered the elementary version of the Great Fate Technique — the Minor Fate Technique. This Dao Technique was extremely effective against most of the cultivators in this world.
Thirdly, he had refined the Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens. If the power of this Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens could be raised to the level of a fifth-stage Treasure, Cheng Hao had no doubt that its power would not be weaker than the Haotian Tower. With this Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens, Fang Han would be invincible against cultivators of the same level!
In terms of cultivation speed, Fang Han could devour and refine to advance quickly. Cheng Hao could also devour Spirit Veins effortlessly. In fact, his efficiency was even higher than Fang Han's. In terms of Dao Techniques, Cheng Hao's original body was, after all, an invincible fifth-stage existence. The cultivators in this world were wary of Fang Han's Dao Techniques, but Cheng Hao did not care.
In Cheng Hao's opinion, the only thing that Fang Han had that could make him wary of was the Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens. Although he had brought the Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art with him, he did not have much confidence in facing Fang Han's Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens, which was comparable to the Haotian Tower.
Hence, the best way to suppress Fang Han was to cut off the Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens from growing. At the very least, after Fang Han became a Heavenly Lord, this Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens could not become a fifth-stage Treasure of the Trayastrimsa Heavens.
"Thank you, Brother Cheng!"
In the face of Cheng Hao's gift, Sun Shihua's face was filled with excitement. A king-level Spirit Meridian was comparable to hundreds of thousands of level-one Spirit Meridians. Just this Spirit Meridian alone was enough for her to become a Virtual Immortal.
Fang Han was silent. He felt a little stifled in the face of Cheng Hao. He had always been high-spirited and fearless, but when he faced Cheng Hao, he always felt a sense of oppression that made him uncomfortable. This feeling made him feel as if his dignity was being trampled on.
"Thank you, Brother Cheng!" Fang Han was silent for a while. In the end, he still chose to accept Cheng Hao's gift. Compared to his dignity, Fang Han valued the benefits in front of him more. He had not gained anything along the way. Now, it was hard for him to reject a king-level Spirit Meridian that could allow him to become a king-level Spirit Meridian.
Nodding his head in satisfaction, Cheng Hao raised his hand and scattered Song Tengfei's corpse. He collected the essence of his body into his sleeve. This guy, who was called the Little Stone Emperor, was actually very powerful. He did not want to leave him as nourishment for Fang Han's strength.
"Then, everyone, let's part ways again. There are still a few days before the Trial of Blood ends. I still have to explore other places!"
Seeing that Fang Han had swallowed the king-level Spirit Meridian and was showing signs of a breakthrough, Cheng Hao laughed. Then, he took a step forward and left the stone hall, disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Sun Shihua, who is this person? That Little Stone Emperor, Song Tengfei, was killed by him so easily!" Seeing that Cheng Hao had left, Xia Zhiqiu could not wait to ask.
"He is the Holy Son of the Heavenly Sound Sect, Cheng Hao. He has been in contact with you a few times before. He even fought with Feng Yuan," Sun Shihua said with a sigh.
"Oh? Fought with Feng Yuan? What was the result? "
Xia Zhiqiu's interest was immediately piqued. She was well aware of Fang Han's strength. Among the Holy Sons in the Trial of Scarlet, his combat power was definitely in the top three. Although it seemed that Fang Han had been defeated by Cheng Hao, she wanted to know the details of the battle.
"Brother Feng's Eight Budur was shattered by Cheng Hao's punch!" Sun Shihua's eyes were still filled with awe as she spoke.
"What?" Xia Zhiqiu was in disbelief. She knew how strong Fang Han's Eight Budur was. Even a Sage might not be able to destroy it with one blow. Could it be that the Holy Son, Cheng Hao, already had the strength of a Sage?
"Little Rain Empress, if you meet Cheng Hao in the future, try not to provoke him. His strength is definitely not below that of a Sage. Moreover, he has a strange personality. He is neither a friend nor a foe. That person's mind is really hard to fathom!"
Fang Han had already completely refined the king-level Spirit Meridian. His aura had reached the Virtual Immortal Realm. Obviously, he had completed his breakthrough in a short while.
Even though he was now in the Virtual Immortal Realm, Fang Han was still wary of Cheng Hao's unfathomable strength. He advised the woman beside him not to do anything risky.
