As expected.
Fang Chen was startled. As a descendant of a Divine Beast, it should be very sensitive to the bloodline of a Divine Beast. As expected, it had sensed the aura of the Vermillion Bird bloodline in him.
The Beast King sized up Fang Chen with his large eyes, making the latter feel a little uncomfortable. However, he knew very well that it was almost impossible for him to lie in front of a descendant of a Divine Beast.
Therefore, he admitted it directly and honestly.
"That's right. By chance, I cultivated a secret skill related to the Vermilion Bird. I refined a trace of the Vermilion Bird's blood essence and derived the true Vermilion Bird bloodline." Fang Chen raised his head and looked at the Beast King.
The Vermillion Bird Secret Technique had first appeared in the body of Huang Tian, the strongest of the younger generation of Flying Phoenix Manor. However, the latter had wanted to kill Fang Chen and had been killed in the end.
Because of this, Fang Chen had been hunted down by the top experts of Flying Phoenix Manor. In the end, he had fled to the territory of Ghost Manor and had almost died at the hands of the Ghost Manor Lord.
Whoosh!
Thinking back to the past, Fang Chen sighed.
Since coming to the Origin World, that was the closest he had come to death.
"You're very good."
The Beast King's large head shook and was full of praise for Fang Chen. A human cultivator who cultivated the Vermillion Bird Secret Technique and refined the blood essence of the Vermillion Bird could derive the true Vermillion Bird bloodline.
And, most importantly, it was the same.
The Vermillion Bird bloodline in his body was very pure and was very rare in the Age of Decline.
Of course, the most important point was that the Beast King had sensed a powerful bloodline in Fang Chen's body through the Vermillion Bird bloodline. He had tried to approach and understand this powerful bloodline but had been forced back.
He was shocked. His Divine Sense had long reached the edge of the Dao Manifestation Realm. In addition, he was a descendant of a Divine Beast and was born with a powerful Primordial Spirit. However, Fang Chen's bloodline had forced him back. One could imagine how powerful this bloodline was.
"A primordial bloodline?"
The Beast King muttered to himself. It shouldn't be. He and Jia Jiu called each other brothers and had learned from Jia Jiu that Fang Chen was a member of the Jialuo Clan. He did have the aura of the Jialuo Clan on him.
However …
Suddenly, the Beast King came to a realization and looked at Fang Chen in disbelief. "Could this be a mutation of the Jialuo bloodline?"
It had interacted with many members of the Jialuo Race before, so it was familiar with their bloodline. It had never heard of Fang Chen's bloodline before. Combined with his identity, the Beast King believed that the bloodline that forced its Primordial Spirit to retreat was definitely a mutated version of the Jialuo Race's bloodline.
"Senior Beast King."
Fang Chen's voice interrupted the Beast King's thoughts.
The Beast King returned to his senses and grinned at Fang Chen. He then said, "Since you possess the Vermillion Bird's bloodline, you can be considered as a descendant of the Divine Beasts. I'm staying here to protect my ancestors' oath."
Fang Chen's heart skipped a beat. The oath to protect the ancestors?
The ancestor it spoke of was undoubtedly an ancient mythological beast like the Vermilion Bird, but what kind of contract was it guarding?
Could this be the opportunity Jia Jiu was talking about?
Whoosh!
The Beast King waved its huge claw and the mountain stream suddenly changed. Fang Chen looked around and realized that he was in a vast grassland. He couldn't see the end of it and it was lush everywhere.
At this moment, the Beast King spoke. "There are countless opportunities in this territory that I guard. Many members of the Jialuo Race, including Jia Jiu, have tried to obtain opportunities from me, but I drove them all away. You are the first person who has a chance to obtain an opportunity."
Fang Chen was stunned.
The Beast King continued, "Release the Vermilion Bird bloodline and sense it yourself. Feel whatever you feel. If you can't feel anything, then it means that you are not destined to be a descendant of the Divine Beasts. Then we will part ways here."
With that, the Beast King disappeared.
Only a dumbfounded Fang Chen was left standing on the lush grassland in a daze.
After a while, he calmed down.
According to the Beast King, there were many opportunities in this grassland and he needed to use the Vermilion Bird bloodline to sense them.
Buzz!
He released the Vermilion Bird bloodline and a trace of the Vermilion Bird's power surrounded his body. With his feet as the center, it quickly spread across the ground.
The Vermilion Bird's power that was invisible to the naked eye spread across the entire grassland.
Secretly, the Beast King nodded in satisfaction.
"The Vermilion Bird is known to have the strongest attack power among the Divine Beasts. With the density of his bloodline, he should be able to sense the Black Tortoise's power, right?"
Outside the mountain stream.
Princess Huang looked worriedly in the direction where Fang Chen disappeared. Jia Jiu, who was at the side, smiled and said, "Don't worry, my brother will be fine. There are many good things in that old fellow's territory. This time, he will definitely reap a bountiful harvest."
Although Jia Jiu looked happy, Princess Huang was still very worried.
After all.
That was a descendant of the Divine Beasts. If he wanted to kill Fang Chen, the latter would not be able to resist.
"My brother is not simple. Being able to gain the Beast King's approval is enough to prove everything."
Jia Jiu said, "I didn't expect that the Divine Beasts that were almost destroyed back then, after being dormant for countless years, would produce such a genius."
Jia Jiu's eyes were blazing with a fiery look.
If the Divine Beasts were to rise again, it would definitely be the best news for the Jialuo Clan.
On the lush grassland.
Fang Chen closed his eyes, touching the grass and trees on the grassland with both hands. The Vermilion Bird's power had spread across the entire grassland, and he could clearly sense any movement on the grassland.
But.
Right now, he did not sense any abnormalities.
"The Beast King shouldn't lie to me."
Fang Chen muttered to himself. He had the Vermilion Bird's bloodline and could be considered a descendant of the Divine Beasts. He had obtained the Beast King's approval and brought him here and told him to release the Vermilion Bird's bloodline.
More than a month had passed, and he still had not found anything.
Even the Beast King who was secretly observing felt a little regretful. "Can't you feel it?"
He couldn't even sense the most basic opportunity. He shook his head slightly to express his regret.
After all, Fang Chen had the Vermilion Bird's bloodline, but he couldn't sense the opportunity. He could only blame his bad luck.
There was no point in keeping such a person. The Beast King was ready to appear and send Fang Chen away.
But.
At this moment, the Beast King's foot suddenly stopped in its tracks.
His gong-sized eyes stared at the lush grassland. At this moment, a fiery red light suddenly appeared on the grassland.
Then, a fluorescent light appeared and enveloped the fiery red light.
"That's …"
The Beast King grinned. The power of the Black Tortoise. Fang Chen sensed the power of the Black Tortoise.
The Divine Beast Vermilion Bird was known to have the strongest attack power, while the Divine Beast Black Tortoise was known to have the strongest defense. The two were enemies and friends, and they restrained each other.
After a month without any results, Fang Chen condensed the fire of the Vermilion Bird, which led to the Black Tortoise Shield.
