The Blood Sea of the Underworld.
He obtained hundreds of millions of Mental Energy points from this trip. He could use them on the Nanming Longevity Record. He wanted to see what would happen if he cultivated this inherited cultivation method to its limit.
The red light was like a water droplet. In the blink of an eye, it blended into the surrounding seawater.
'It's going to be troublesome to kill this guy …' He was also an undying being. Naturally, he knew that if he could not kill this guy in one go, it would be troublesome in the future.
Minghe slowly pulled out the Avici Sword. He pointed the tip of the sword at his chest and stabbed it gently.
Among them, those who were famous and had powerful cultivations were left for the last to attack.
After witnessing the power of a primordial spirit treasure, Lu Sheng placed more importance on treasures. He immediately came here to find this treasure of the highest grade he could come into contact with.
'This fire seems to be the Vermilion Bird's Divine Fire. It might also be the phoenix's Undying Flames, but the phoenix's Divine Fire isn't this powerful …' He had fought the ancestral phoenix before. The phoenix's flames were powerful, but they were only on par with his blood sea.
However, for ordinary Vermilion Birds, the inheritance could only be used once. Even if they stayed here every day after that, it would not be of any use.
Lu Sheng stayed in the Vermilion Bird Palace to cultivate. Spirit treasures with different effects were delivered to him. Large amounts of Mental Energy accumulated.
He lowered his head and observed the fire. If he did not wrap it with his Primordial Spirit, the fire would have burned his incarnation black like before. It would have destroyed all life.
Lu Sheng's breath of Qi transformed into flames as he flew for hundreds of thousands of kilometers. He only slowed down slightly and sighed in relief when the piercing gaze behind him that caused him intense pain in his back slowly faded away. He hovered above a vast ocean.
The Vermilion Bird Tribe was an ancient divine beast tribe. Naturally, they had a deep understanding of saints. They also had a deep understanding of how to become saints.
Many of them were refined by demon immortals of the demon tribe. Only a small portion of these demon immortals were in the demon court. Most of them lived in seclusion in various parts of the world.
The Primordial World was vast. The collapse of Mount Buzhou and the pouring of the Heavenly River seemed like a huge commotion, but in reality, it only affected a tiny piece of land. Saint Nuwa immediately took action.
Up until now, the Divine Flame had never encountered anything it couldn't ignite.
A few breaths later, a giant red giant thousands of meters tall slowly floated up from the depths of the sea. He was none other than the Nether River Patriarch.
"As I expected, the inheritance of the Vermillion Bird is divided according to cultivation level. I should have obtained the complete inheritance of the Vermillion Bird, right?"
Now that his Nan Ming Long Life Record had reached the 71st Revolution, the strongest divine ability it had given him was the terrifyingly hot Vermilion Bird Divine Fire.
"Nether River Ancestor: His true form is the boundless blood river, generated by the Nether River, which was transformed from a trace of Saint Pan Gu's dirty blood. He was born with a trace of the power of Dao of nature. His true form, the blood river, is a part of the great Dao of nature. Therefore, he is immortal. She wielded the Avici and Yuantu Swords and once tried to copy Goddess Nuwa to create humans and become saints. She created the Asura race together but failed to become a saint. After that, he took in some of the remaining 3,000 Demon Gods of the Primal Chaos after the world was split open. He is the strongest person below the Saints. "
Compared to the treasures offered by the demon gods, this Vermilion Bird Secret Mirror was at least an acquired spiritual treasure.
However, what made Lu Sheng frown was that this Nether River Ancestor's true form seemed to be in the Netherworld. He had never left the Nether River. The ones who went out were the Blood God's clones that he had created.
At the end of the day, they had the same goal. They were all here to take advantage of the situation. When the Saints ignored them, they could still hide and wait for an opportunity.
Lu Sheng and the Nether River Ancestor also noticed Goddess Nuwa's gaze. They felt chills run down their spines. They exchanged a glance, turned around, and ran.
Above them was the dark red hole where the water of the Celestial River was still pouring down. Below them was the boundless ocean that was a mix of dark blue and silver.
His understanding of the Saints was considered profound in the entire world.
Although it could not compare to Kong Xuan's Five-colored Divine Light that could destroy anything, it was still impressive enough that it could fight against a second-grade innate spiritual treasure.
'Looks like I'll have to find out what rank a Quasi-Saint is like when I return.' Lu Sheng made up his mind.
'Looks like I'll have to think long and hard about killing the Nether River … In this universe, the Saints are extremely powerful. Gathering treasures and secretly absorbing Mental Energy is the way to go. I'll first improve the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire to its limit before considering if I should become a Saint. '
Lu Sheng picked out the demon gods who lived alone and were slightly weaker. He had Mingshe arrange for the demon gods of the Heavenly Court to ambush them.
'A Quasi-Saint is someone who has stepped onto the path of proving his Dao but has yet to complete it.'
After repeatedly sensing behind him, Lu Sheng was certain that Goddess Nuwa was no longer paying attention to him. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief.
More than two hours passed. Only then did he slowly open his eyes and suck the last wisp of dark red smoke into his mouth.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. Most of the demon gods on the ground had been corrupted and parasitized by him. The ones who were left were the tough ones.
The Nether River was one of them.
Lu Sheng was a little hesitant. However, the surging knowledge and memories in his mind made him understand that the inheritance this time was much more profound than the previous one.
Lu Sheng's expression changed. The Nether River was said to be immortal in the legends. His true form was a boundless river of blood. He also created the legendary Great Asura Clan. He wielded the Avici and Yuantu Swords. These two swords were top-notch Connate Spirit Treasures. They were powerful beings second only to the Bell of Chaos.
Lu Sheng quickly found the relevant records.
It was not like this white flame, which was a perfect counter to the sea of blood. Only the killing intent of the Avici Sword could resist and offset its high temperature.
'At the end of the day, according to the power of the Saints recorded in the inheritance. The Saints are equivalent to the privileged class of this universe. They have the powerful ability to modify the rules in a small area. However, this power is bestowed by this universe. If I leave this place, I'll fall to the mortal world. It's not what I'm after. '
It was a good treasure.
'What I'm after is true power that can adapt to any universe. Also, this universe is too small … '
Lu Sheng's brows were tightly knitted.
'There are four known paths to becoming a Saint … Proving the path with strength, proving the path by cutting corpses, proving the path by virtue, and proving the path by aspiration.' Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes and sank into thought.
'Nether River Patriarch … I'll remember you.' Lu Sheng's eyes sharpened. He turned around and transformed into a flame that shot into the skies.
He had long since absorbed all the Mental Energy on it. Lu Sheng was currently sitting here to see if he could obtain more of the ancestor's inheritance.
In the inheritance, the ancestors of the Vermillion Bird Tribe had researched and speculated about the most powerful beings in the world.
However, Lu Sheng was different.
Once the Sage averted his gaze, he would run as far as he could.
Meanwhile, the other regions of the Primordial World remained peaceful. These demon immortals were hidden in these regions.
He was surrounded by a narrow, bright red palace. This was the most secretive place of the Vermillion Bird Tribe. Only those with the Vermillion Bird Sacred Body could enter and obtain the inheritance. Moreover, only one could enter at a time.
This was especially true since they had a deep relationship with Nuwa's elder brother, Fuxi.
Even Nether River's body, which was a peak Demi-Saint, was incinerated. He could not put up any resistance.
'What kind of fire is this?! It can burn with my blood sea as fuel?! 'Nether River's expression was grim. He was extremely frustrated.
In the boundless dark red sea, a beam of red light descended from the skies and plunged into the depths of the sea.
He had received the inheritance before upgrading the Nan Ming Long Life Record. Now that he had reached the 71st transformation, he believed that he would receive more inheritances if he came again.
This included Peacock Demon God Kong Xuan and other Super Demon Saints.
After exiting the Vermillion Bird Secret Hall, Lu Sheng made an appointment with the Cloud Mist Demon God again. He obtained a list of all the famous Numinous Treasures in the world.
After accumulating close to 500,000,000 Mental Energy units, Lu Sheng was prepared to cultivate again. At the same time, he ignited his Nascent Divinity to see if he could break through to the Demi-Saint tier.
He flew to the North Sea in one go.
Yu Xuan was not around. Currently, there were only seven or eight Vermillion Bird Tribe girls living in the Vermillion Bird Palace. This secret inheritance mirror was a sub-body of the Vermillion Bird Tribe's foundational treasure. Although it did not have much power, its spiritual light could be used as a shield. When combined with the surrounding formation, it could protect the entire Vermillion Bird Palace.
'If I'm not mistaken, Nether River should be in the Demi-Saint tier. That ability to sneak up on me without making a sound, and that powerful aura energy field that can rival mine … A Demi-Saint … is truly extraordinary.'
…
He sat before the dark red secret mirror with his mouth slightly open. Wisps of dark red smoke rose from the surface of the secret mirror and entered his mouth and nose.
A formless and cold sword will and killing intent poured onto the ball of fire like ice water. It immediately extinguished the fire, leaving only white smoke.
Sitting in the Vermillion Bird Secret Palace, Lu Sheng focused his mind and Qi. He quietly communicated with the secret mirror before him with his spirit.
Lu Sheng sat before the Vermillion Bird Tribe's secret mirror. He closed his eyes and meditated, calming his mind.
After descending into so many worlds, he had never felt so carefree before. An acquired spiritual treasure could provide him with at least 20,000,000 Mental Energy units. Those that were slightly more famous or older would provide him with more than 30,000,000 Mental Energy units.
It was only when the Avici Sword appeared that they were evenly matched. The Divine Fire could not spread to the other side.
'That junior called himself Lu Sheng … Looks like he's no ordinary person. However, I've never heard of someone named Lu Sheng in this world … I'll have to be careful.'
In a few short months, the demon immortals on the land were all ambushed and parasitized by their brethren. The demon immortals who first came into contact with the Evil God Power could not defend against it. Under the surprise attacks, a dozen or so middle-grade Golden Immortal demon immortals were taken down without a sound.
He estimated the size of the Primordial World. It was about a dozen light-years in the Demonic Realm. Although it was vast, a dozen light-years was like a sesame seed compared to other universes. However, the energy and substance density of this place was too high. Hence, its might was extraordinary.
Compared to the other worlds he had descended into, the size of this place could not even be considered a universe. At most, it could be considered a small world.
…
His undying nature allowed him to launch all sorts of sneak attacks without regard for his own life. It was truly annoying.
His expression was dark as he looked down at his chest.
Although a saint's might was extremely powerful, and the Primordial World seemed huge, Lu Sheng could clearly sense that this was a newly born universe.
Before that, he had to collect the treasures that could provide him with the most Mental Energy.
If they were to fight, he might suffer a great loss if he did not have any spirit treasures to protect himself.
He made up his mind. His path was to prove his Dao through strength.
Not only were the legendary treasures in Lu Sheng's memories on the list, but there were also many treasures that he had never heard of before.
"Hiss …"
…
The Vermillion Bird Palace.
…
Among them, the one that caught his attention the most was the talk of becoming a saint.
Initially, he planned to observe the event and see if he could take advantage of it. He did not expect to run into a tough opponent when he was about to deal with the little demons that were like pebbles.
In other words, the might of his Remarkable Abilities should be on the same level as an innate spirit treasure like the Avici Sword.
