Chapter 686: Chapter 362: Vermilion Bird Incinerates Heaven_2
After much struggle, Li Zheng finally decided to exchange the divine gold with Zhang Yang.
In the blink of an eye, another two hours passed.
Avatar Wang Nan arrived, but appeared as Zhang Yang.
Upon seeing Zhang Yang, Li Zheng immediately ran over: “God Zhang Yang, it’s me, I’m Blazingfire Boy.”
“Where’s the item?” Su Nan said, cutting straight to the chase.
“Here it is.” Li Zheng took out the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg.
The stone egg was shaped like an oval, similar to the petrified dragon-turtle egg they had encountered before. It was about the size of a goose egg, ordinary and unremarkable, like a slightly larger pebble.
If it was thrown into a creek, no one would ever think that this stone had anything to do with the legendary Auspicious Beast Vermilion Bird.
Su Nan nodded, took out the Moon Soul Pure Gold, and since he had foreknowledge, he wasn’t afraid that Li Zheng would run away.
The transaction went smoothly, and there were no accidents.
After putting away the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg, Su Nan was about to leave when Li Zheng thought for a moment and immediately asked, “Can God Zhang Yang help me complete a task?”
Su Nan frowned and didn’t answer. Li Zheng continued: “God Zhang Yang, I triggered a four-star Main Quest, and this Vermilion Bird Stone Egg is what I got for completing it.”
If it were someone else, he wouldn’t have mentioned the task, but Zhang Yang was a top three Great God, so he wasn’t afraid that Zhang Yang would take his things. After all, for these top-ranking Great Gods, reputation was more important.
“Really?” Su Nan was somewhat surprised.
He had originally thought that the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg was just something Li Zheng had found by chance, not something he had gotten through a task.
The reason was simple: Li Zheng was only at the Spirit-level Early-stage and didn’t seem like a Great God level player. To obtain something like the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg, one would need to complete a four-star mission, which was impossible for ordinary players.
“I underestimated these ordinary players. With their vast numbers, there are always a few exceptions.” Su Nan muttered to himself.
However, he was not interested in Li Zheng’s task, at least not right now.
His main body was participating in the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony, while his avatar needed to nurture the Jianmu in the Mountain and Water Gourd. He didn’t have time to do other quests.
Otherwise, he would have completed the “Cave Immortal’s Inheritance” quest long ago.
“Sorry, I don’t have time right now.” Su Nan shook his head and left.
…
“This is the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg?”
At the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, Su Nan played with the stone egg, a hint of regret in his eyes.
The stone egg had completely lost its vitality. Otherwise, its value would have been at least several times greater.
“I wonder if there are similar stone eggs left behind by the other ten Auspicious Beasts?”
Auspicious Beasts could increase Qi Luck. Previously, when he hatched the Dragon Turtle in reality, he received the Xiangrui blessing from Heaven and Earth. Moreover, the potential of Auspicious Beasts was limitless. If nurtured well, they would undoubtedly become a great helper in the future.
Su Nan took out the Xuanhuang Refining Qi Furnace and threw the Vermilion Bird Stone Egg into it. He began to activate the furnace.
Two hours later.
The Xuanhuang Refining Qi Furnace no longer consumed his strength, and the Xuanhuang Qi inside gradually faded away.
“I wonder how much of an improvement this will bring to my Li Fire Essence?” Su Nan’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
The previous foreknowledge only mentioned the approximate benefits of the furnace fire essence, without specifying how much the Li Fire Essence would increase. Now is the time to witness the miracle.
When he opened the furnace, as expected, there was nothing inside but a pile of stone powder, and his Li Fire Essence was excited.
He released the Li Fire Essence, which quickly entered the furnace without him having to control it.
In the furnace, the Vermilion Sparrow Essence emerged and merged with the Li Fire Essence. The two seemed to be naturally integrated. The moment they made contact, a scorching flame erupted.
Half of the flame was red, and the other half was golden. The two obviously different types of flames merged quickly, like milk and water.
Su Nan could tell at a glance that the red flame was the Southern Ming Detachment Fire, while the golden flame was the Sun’s Fire. The two flames were unrelated, but they merged together because of the Li Fire Essence.
