The Wilderness Divine Hall's door flashed and Yi Yun was enveloped by the light. The next moment, he was transported to the Wilderness Divine Hall's sixth hall.
Hot!
This was Yi Yun's first feeling.
The temperature in the room was probably close to boiling water. If a mortal were to enter, they would be instantly cooked!
In the middle of the hall, there was a blood-red sculpture of a huge fire bird.
The fire bird spread its wings and roared towards the sky. Its feathers, which were imbued with Great Yan gold, were like burning flames.
Great Yan gold was originally black, but when it was illuminated by light, it would reflect a dark golden luster.
But the sixth hall's Great Yan gold sculpture had turned blood red. This was because, over the years, the pure Yang energy sealed in the fire bird's body in the Great Yan gold had merged with the gold, slowly turning it into this color.
"It is indeed worthy of being carefully chosen by the first city lord of the Tai Ah Divine City. It has a trace of the ancient three-legged Golden Crow's bloodline, a primordial species …"
Yi Yun thought to himself. This fire bird's name was Rainbow Blood Feather.
The Tai Ah Divine City was the symbol of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. How could its Wilderness Divine Hall not have a pure Yang primordial species?
If that was the case, it would be very difficult for future generations to learn the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique'.
Back when the first city lord of the Tai Ah Divine City established the Wilderness Divine Hall, he had chased the pure Yang Rainbow Blood Feather across half the Divine wilderness!
After the Wilderness Divine Hall was completed, the Rainbow Blood Feather was placed in Divine Hall number 6. The divine hall was engraved with arrays that gathered pure Yang Qi. This allowed Divine Hall number 6 to maintain an extremely high temperature over the tens of millions of years. The closer one got to the Rainbow Blood Feather, the higher the temperature. The closer one got to the Rainbow Blood Feather, the higher the temperature.
The floor tiles beneath the Rainbow Blood Feather's feet were already red from the heat. Over the years, the impurities in the floor tiles had been completely burned away. Now, these floor tiles could be considered a treasure.
"Rainbow Blood Feather …"
Yi Yun looked up at the mighty fire bird sculpture. As he sensed the waves of energy and pressure, his blood began to circulate at a faster rate.
The Rainbow Blood Feather's pure Yang energy was even greater than the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng's!
Yi Yun interfaced his spiritual energy with the Purple Crystal and his vision turned fiery red.
Ever since he devoured the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng, Yi Yun's spiritual energy had greatly increased. Furthermore, he had condensed the nascent form of the Heaven's Eye. His control over the Purple Crystal had also increased.
Now, Yi Yun was using the Purple Crystal to absorb the primordial species energy through the Great Yan gold. It was already much easier.
Soon, the first energy blob flew in front of Yi Yun.
Inside this energy ball the size of a pigeon egg was a small and exquisite firebird. This firebird had the appearance of a Rainbow Blood Feather. Every feather could be seen clearly and vividly.
Yi Yun took a deep breath and calmed his mind. Then. He opened his mouth and slowly swallowed the energy.
All of a sudden. Yi Yun could clearly feel a surge of pure Yang energy entering his limbs. Yi Yun controlled this energy with great familiarity. After it circulated through his body, it entered the picture of the Sun.
He had the picture of the sun in his body. The amount of energy Yi Yun's body could hold and control had greatly increased. If Yi Yun's body was a pool, then the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was the water. But now, because he had practiced the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique', Yi Yun's body's pool had deepened. He could absorb as much energy as he wanted, filling up the pool again.
Blobs of pure Yang energy flew towards Yi Yun. As a primordial species, the Rainbow Blood Feather's energy purity was in no way inferior to the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng. After being purified by the Great Yan gold and the pure Yang array for tens of millions of years, the energy quality was even better than the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng!
Of course, the greatest benefit of absorbing the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng was not the energy gain, but the fact that he had condensed the nascent form of the Heaven's Eye. This was an unexpected surprise.
For two hours, Yi Yun focused on absorbing and purifying the primordial species' energy. The array diagram in his soul sea was becoming more and more complete. Yi Yun's understanding of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique' also became deeper.
…
Day after day, Yi Yun cultivated during the day and night. He used the pure Yang energy absorbed by the Wilderness Divine Hall to copy the picture of the Sun in his mind bit by bit. Yi Yun's cultivation level became more profound and his foundation became more solid. The picture of the Sun's completion rate increased bit by bit. From 70%, 75%, 80%, it slowly neared 90%.
These days, Yi Yun's Dantian was like a burning flame. Slowly, his cultivation level reached the peak of the mid-stages of Purple Blood, and was moving towards the late-stages of Purple Blood.
But at this time, Yi Yun's cultivation time in the Wilderness Divine Hall had been used up once again.
Just a little bit more …
Yi Yun looked within his mind at the picture of the Sun. It was so close to completion, but he could not enter the Wilderness Divine Hall. It was such a pity.
With another six hours of cultivation time in the Wilderness Divine Hall, he would be able to complete the picture of the Sun.
Yi Yun frowned slightly. If he were to pick herbs to earn dragon scale runes now, it would be too slow. He would need at least 7-8 days to earn 3000 dragon scale runes. He could not complete the first stage of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique' in one go. If he were to pick them up after another 7-8 days, it would lack momentum and he would need to spend even more energy.
"Right!" Yi Yun's mind flashed as he thought of a simple solution. "How could I have forgotten about this? This way, there won't be a problem."
…
In the central square of the Tai Ah Divine City, behind the Ten Thousand Pagoda, there was an inconspicuous building. This building was about 30 meters tall and looked ordinary.
However, it was this building that left many Trial Takers with unbearable memories.
This was the Tai Ah Divine City's bank. It provided loans and pawning services to cultivators.
The interest rates were ridiculously high. Rookies had to pay 12% a month, while non-rookies had to pay 15% a month.
Back then, Zhao Qingcheng had no choice but to seek help from Yi Yun because she had borrowed a high interest rate from the bank. Yi Yun did not ask for the tens of dragon scale runes because Zhao Qingcheng had helped him quite a bit.
Yi Yun came to the bank to borrow runes. By borrowing 3000 dragon scale runes, he could repay it in a month. He only needed to pay 360 dragon scale runes as interest. This was nothing to Yi Yun.
The bank's loan procedures were not complicated. Although Yi Yun was a rookie, he had previously earned large amounts of dragon scale runes, so he had a high reputation. According to the Tai Ah Divine City's rules, Yi Yun had a loan limit of 5000 dragon scale runes.
Yi Yun was prepared to borrow 3000, but when he walked into the bank, he encountered a strange group.
There were four youths in the bank, all dressed in embroidered clothes. Their physiques were very interesting. One was tall, one was short, one was fat, and one was thin.
When the four of them stood together, they were all of the same height, giving off an inexplicable sense of humor.
"Manager, how much do you think this can be pawned for?"
Not many people dared to borrow from the bank's high interest rate. And to these rich young masters, borrowing from a high interest rate was not something to be proud of.
So if they needed money, most of them would choose to pawn it in another way.
Many of the young masters pawned items that they had brought from their own family. The Divine City did not encourage this practice, so the price was very low!
An item placed in the Tai Ah Divine City's pawnshop would usually lose half its value.
But there was no other way. Many young masters still came to pawn their items. This was because many of the Tai Ah Divine City's resources could not be found outside.
"500 dragon scale runes!"
The pawnshop's manager was a middle-aged man with a moustache and a small felt hat. He gave off the vibe of a secular merchant.
Every time an item was brought over, he only glanced at it with his half-opened eye and used only a few seconds to finalize the price. Moreover, it was a fixed price. Once it was stated, it would not be changed. Sell it or not!
"500, so little …" The tall youth was unhappy, but after some thought, he gritted his teeth and said, "Pawn it!"
"Second brother, don't be reluctant. Aren't we lacking dragon scale runes now? Pawn this item. If you want it in the future, you can redeem it."
The short youth said. As he spoke, he raised his hand above his head and patted the tall youth's shoulder. Due to the difference in height, his action of patting the tall youth's shoulder looked very out of place. "Let's pawn this item and save up this amount of dragon scale runes. In a month or so, we can use this amount of dragon scale runes to bet with that silly kid Yi Yun. When that happens, 500 will become 1,000, and 1,000 will become 2,000. Wouldn't we be able to earn it back in an instant!?"
The short youth said casually. The fat youth beside him echoed, "Yes, that kid Yi Yun dared to offend our Hongdao Association. Let's make him our target! Brothers, this battle will be the Capital's Four Bully Lords' first battle in the Tai Ah Divine City. We must spread the name of the Capital's Four Bully Lords. In the future, the four of us will be famous in the Tai Ah Divine City. In this first battle, let's use Yi Yun as a sacrifice! "
The fat youth's words made the other four's blood boil. The Capital's Four Bully Lords would dominate the Tai Ah Divine City. Just thinking about it made them excited!
At this time, not far away, Yi Yun had a strange look on his face. The quartet's words made him stunned.
Make a bet with that silly kid Yi Yun? These people were talking about him?
This made Yi Yun at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He understood that these people were from the Hongdao Association!
They came to the bank to borrow money. But they came from a good background, so they could pawn their items. This way, they could not repay them in the future.
And the reason they pawned their items was for the battle with him in a month's time!
Rookies did not earn a lot of dragon scale runes, and their expenses were high. Naturally, they did not have many dragon scale runes to bet.
And the arena ranking competition in a month's time was a good opportunity for many rookies to earn dragon scale runes.
As for Yi Yun, he came to the Tai Ah Divine City and chose the herb-picking job that only the weakest people would choose. Furthermore, he was from the Cloud Wilderness, so he did not seem to be very strong. But he had picked up a primordial herb, so he was extremely rich. Wasn't he the best fat sheep?
