"A Spirit Shards left behind by a Blazing Sun Tier after death?" The Faceless Ghost's interest seed to soar, and his voice beca higher pitched, carrying a bit of urgency, "Is there any more Intelligence?"
"It is said that Hao Ri is not a Profession user from the Dust Star Sea." On such basic information, Su Chen wasn't prepared to lie.
"Not a Profession user from the Dust Star Sea—" The Faceless Ghost didn't seem surprised, muttering to himself: "He should be from the Abyssal Domain."
The Abyssal Domain... Su Chen A Slight Stir in One's Heart. What kind of place is that, to be able to birth a Blazing Sun Tier?
He couldn't help but feel a bit of a probing desire in his heart. What these Evil Gods knew was far more than the Sects and the Royal Court.
On one hand, it was because of their Lifespan, and on the other hand, the Nether Mist's influence on them was far smaller than on normal living beings.
Moreover, they could utilize the Nether Realm to travel; distance was not much of a problem for them.
Although Su Chen was curious in his heart, he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to ask.
The Faceless Ghost was cunning and unpredictable. Curiosity shouldn't exist in a Believer. Therefore, regarding the Faceless Ghost's muttering, he could only maintain his silence.
"Only this?" The Faceless Ghost seed still unsatisfied. Three drops of Divine Blood for these few sentences was truly too expensive.
Seeing this, Su Chen had no choice but to continue: "According to Hao Ri, within that Lost Starfire, there is a wisp of Spirit of the Vast Sun, bearing a Radiant Sun Class."
"Spirit of the Vast Sun?" The Faceless Ghost's reaction was extrely intense. The mist around him surged increasingly faster, and his voice was urgent: "There really is a wisp of Spirit of the Vast Sun in that Lost Starfire. Those few guys really didn't guess wrong. This is an opportunity to advance to 'The Final Ruin'..."
The Faceless Ghost muttered a lot of things. So Su Chen couldn't hear, and so he could.
The Final Ruin? A tier above the Great Eldritch God? Corresponding to the Blazing Sun Tier?
Thinking of this, a doubt arose in Su Chen's mind. For Professional Tiers, it was One Slot Per Person. It was understandable that the Dust Star Sea hadn't birthed a Blazing Sun Tier for so many years.
But these Evil Gods had long lifespans and didn't follow the conventional Profession route. Why were they still stopped at the Great Eldritch God level and hadn't advanced?
Were they missing so crucial condition?
Or was their advancent route also One Slot Per Person?
Many thoughts surfaced in Su Chen's mind as he simultaneously responded: "The three drops of Divine Blood you bestowed only exchanged for this information. Please forgive my offense."
"Hmm..." The Faceless Ghost pondered, gradually calming down: "It is a bit expensive, but ultimately so crucial information was obtained."
Hearing this, Su Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then added: "After Hao Ri appeared, he attracted the attention of the Ancient Kings of several Great Sects and the Vast Sea Emperor. They all want to obtain more information about the Spirit of the Vast Sun from Hao Ri, and Hao Ri seems to have revealed so kind of plan."
"Oh? What plan?" The Faceless Ghost indeed pursued the question.
"The other party didn't say," Su Chen hesitated and said: "He also wants to demand more Divine Blood."
"More Divine Blood?" The Faceless Ghost seed puzzled. "What does he need so much Divine Blood for? Even Molten Casting Sacred Profession wouldn't consu this much, and the True Martial Sect should have so in storage."
"Or is he secretly trying to sche sothing?"
"He didn't tell ," Su Chen shook his head and added, "If you wish to know, I will figure out a way to investigate."
"How could he let you know about this kind of thing." The Faceless Ghost held no hope for this. The layered voices around him echoed: "A plan—a plan targeting the Spirit of the Vast Sun?"
"How much Divine Blood does he want?"
Su Chen hesitated briefly before stating a number: "Five drops."
"Five drops? Hah?" The Faceless Ghost sneered, "What does he take for? Five drops of my Divine Blood for an unconfird piece of news? He's an Evil God, I'm an Evil God..."
As expected, he's unwilling... Su Chen further added: "He asked to convey to you that this plan is extrely extensive. Currently, the Lost Starfire seems to be in so kind of Waxing Phase."
"Ordinary Bright Moon Tiers find it difficult to approach. If this plan succeeds, those Ancient Kings and the Emperor seem to have a way to enter it, thereby gaining the initiative."
"They can enter?" Hearing this, the Faceless Ghost's voice suddenly lowered. "In that case, this plan indeed has so value... If I can act on the opportunity... Five drops of Divine Blood..."
He pondered for a long ti before saying: "I can agree to it. However, you need to have him help investigate another matter."
So stingy... Five drops of Divine Blood to handle two things? Su Chen muttered inwardly, but said respectfully, "Please speak."
The Faceless Ghost's voice ca through: "He should have so acquaintances in the Bronze Sect. Find a way to figure out if any major events have happened in the Bronze Sect recently. Any unusual or abnormal occurrences must be reported to ."
Major events recently? Su Chen's heart skipped a beat. He imdiately thought of his purification of the mid-tier Mist Embers, but that should concern Hei Tuo. What did it have to do with the Faceless Ghost? Why was he suddenly paying attention to the Bronze Sect?
He couldn't ask directly, so he could only take another angle: "I don't know specifically what aspects it concerns. If you could point in a direction, I can complete your order as soon as possible."
"What aspects..." The Faceless Ghost pondered, seeming a bit unsure as well. "Hei Tuo, who was in Dormancy, paid a huge price to forcefully awaken. Thinking it over, it should be related to the Bronze Sect. Check if that Qin Tianlin is really dead, and also about the Mist Embers you ntioned before."
Lao Hei is awake?
Su Chen felt A Slight Shock in One's Heart. Because of the stimulation from the mid-tier Mist Embers? It seems the so-called Dormancy doesn't an being completely ignorant of the outside world.
However, listening to the Faceless Ghost's tone, Lao Hei seed to have paid quite a hefty price for this awakening.
Su Chen's heart tightened. The higher the price paid, the greater Hei Tuo's fury would be. What if he ca killing directly—
His at shield, Qin Tianlin, was gone. If Lao Hei ca again, he'd probably head straight for him.
Su Chen's mind raced, but on the surface, he nodded: "I understand. I will definitely figure out a way for him to find out."
"Mm," the Faceless Ghost replied. The mist surged, and drops of Divine Blood gradually precipitated. "Lowly Believer, I await your good news."
The surrounding grayish-white mist gradually dissipated.
Su Chen erased the traces and stood in place for a long ti without leaving. He was hesitating whether To Contact Lao Hei.
A furious Great Eldritch God—no matter what, the na Su Chen was definitely on his list. Without figuring out the other party's movents, he truly felt restless and couldn't sleep or eat in peace.
"Contacting him now is definitely a no-go. He just woke up, and his Believers shouldn't know yet. Such a perfectly tid contact... although given these Evil Gods' trust in their Believers, it might be explained away as a coincidence, Lao Hei was just deceived, so it's not guaranteed he won't get suspicious."
"He's probably fuming right now. Best to wait for him to calm down."
Su Chen decided To Contact Lao Hei after so ti. Because of Qin Tianlin's death, the Bronze Sect was already conducting the highest-level of reviews.
Everyone entering the Bronze Sect had to leave a Spiritual Sample, which was then analyzed by a 9th-tier Class User, expending imnse manpower and resources.
Even if Hei Tuo ca again, it couldn't be as simple as last ti.
In the Nether Tower, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes. Right now, he had nine drops of Divine Blood in his hands.
Should he go and try to see if he could enter that Lost Starfire? Nine drops and ten drops were only one drop apart; maybe seven or eight drops would be enough.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head: "Forget it. Since I set the goal of ten drops, I'll wait until I have ten drops before trying."
Su Chen still decided to follow his own plan.
"As for how to explain things to Lao Hei..." Su Chen pushed open the door of the Nether Tower and walked back to the Main Building, thinking about this the whole way.
Within the Nether Mist, the silhouette of a six-story flagship flickered in the fog. The surface of the hull didn't flow with a tallic luster, but rather so kind of living dark energy field, alternating between bright and dark like breathing, parting the surrounding Nether Mist as it advanced rapidly.
In the high-level command room, five Ancient Kings and one Emperor sat around a circular tal table. In the center of the table burned a wisp of Purple Fla.
The Zhenwu Ancient King's expression was grim: "Hao Ri, you previously only said you needed Qin Yun to ignite the fire, but you never ntioned that Qin Yun would also be used as the bearer for the Spirit of the Vast Sun."
"Not a bearer." The fla fluttered slightly, denying it. "Just a Spiritual Anchor, much like your Ancient King Monunt."
Everyone naturally understood the situation with the Ancient King Monunt.
But the Zhenwu Ancient King still seed dissatisfied: "Why must it be Qin Yun? Won't soone else do?"
"I've already said, he entered that Starfire once and was noticed by the Spirit of the Vast Sun. Although he wasn't recognized, at least he wasn't burned to death."
"Only he can barely carry that wisp of Spiritual Anchor. If it were anyone else, the Spirit of the Vast Sun would simply kill them without rcy."
Hao Ri's explanation left the people present deep in thought.
It seed to make sense. Having Qin Yun do it was fine with them. Besides, they weren't Wealthy and Overbearing enough to use Morning Star Tiers as Test Subjects.
Data flowed in the Bronze Ancient King's eyes as he suddenly asked: "How long will this situation last?"
Hao Ri's voice ca through, "It won't last too long. It will be enough once this Spiritual Anchor selects The Recognized to act as the trailblazer to enter the Lost Starfire."
"At that ti, will Qin Yun have no more use?" the Bronze Ancient King asked leisurely.
Qin Yun really guessed correctly. This Sect Master of his already harbored murderous intent towards him. If he hadn't asked to protect him in advance and return from the Lost Starfire, he would probably make a move imdiately.
Hao Ri couldn't help but think, chiming in, "Correct. At that ti, he will have no more use."
"Since that is the case, I have no objections." The Bronze Ancient King nodded.
"Being rely a Spiritual Anchor, will it not have any influence on the Spirit of the Vast Sun? Can Qin Yun influence this Spiritual Anchor?" The Vast Sea Emperor's voice was deep and resonant.
"Even if it is just a wisp of a Spiritual Anchor, it is impossible for Qin Yun to influence it. Moreover, Qin Yun has already walked before the Spirit of the Vast Sun once and didn't even have the qualifications to beco a Recognized Chosen."
"You are Ancient Kings and Emperors, what exactly are you worried about?" Hao Ri's words carried a faint, imperceptible mockery.
But aside from the Zhenwu Ancient King showing a look of displeasure, the others didn't take it to heart. When it ca to the Spirit of the Vast Sun, one could never be too careful.
"If that's the case, I can agree." The Vast Sea Emperor nodded, adding indifferently: "If there is even the slightest discrepancy with what you said, we will annihilate you imdiately."
"This Qin Yun sure has good luck." The Xuantian Ancient King gave A Half-Smile and also nodded. "I have no objections either."
The other Ancient Kings also nodded one after another. Even if the Zhenwu Ancient King was dissatisfied, he could only agree. He was still Brooding over Qin Yun refusing his recruitnt.
"Calculating the ti, we should arrive in a few days." The Vast Sea Emperor waved a hand, and a Holographic Star Map was projected before their eyes. The central area was a ball of purple fire, and not far away on the screen, a red dot of light was rapidly approaching.
"You have finally responded to ."
Within the Nether Realm, Su Chen's voice trembled, surrounded by billowing black mist. As soon as the connection was established, he didn't wait for Hei Tuo to speak and eagerly said: "I have an urgent matter to report to you. Soone has purified the Mist Embers again!"
Hei Tuo, who was preparing to shout a question from an unknown distance away, suddenly fell silent, his words carrying a hint of Doubtful and Uncertain: "Where did you learn this?"
Lao Hei indeed descended into reality again. Su Chen listened to the voice that seed to co from an extre distance away. The last ti Hei Tuo descended into reality, he prayed to him, and it was the sa situation.
He hurriedly replied: "That Zhou Yunyang told not long ago."
"So, the so-called Qin Tianlin before was him deceiving you?" Hei Tuo's voice was cold and dead.
"I also questioned him like that at the ti," Su Chen hurriedly said. "But he denied it, saying the reason Qin Tianlin could purify the Mist Embers was because of the help of the Solar Remnants. Although Qin Tianlin is dead, the Solar Remnants were not annihilated."
"So, who is the person purifying the Mist Embers this ti? Did he tell you?" Hei Tuo wasn't distracted by the Solar Fla, his voice indifferent and cold.
Su Chen felt helpless in his heart. It seed that ntioning anyone's na this ti would be useless; Hei Tuo probably wouldn't believe it.
His voice was grim: "According to Zhou Yunyang, the most likely person right now is Su Chen."
Hei Tuo fell into a long silence. Towards this Believer, his anger was more directed at him being deceived by Zhou Yunyang, causing him to pay a heavy price.
But looking at it now, what Zhou Yunyang said seed to make sense. The na Su Chen also matched his intuition at the mont, which made him a bit unsure. "How credible do you think his words are?"
Hei Tuo asked, but before Su Chen could respond, a voice ca again: "Forget it, you don't need to say."
It seems Lao Hei is truly angry this ti. Su Chen muttered inwardly, his voice bitter: "I beg your forgiveness."
"It's not ti for you to ask for punishnt yet. Exactly what is going on, I will make my own decision once I investigate clearly." Hei Tuo's voice stabilized a lot.
A glint flashed in the depths of Su Chen's eyes. "If there is anything you need to do, please give your orders."
Hei Tuo, however, said: "No need. Keep an eye on Su Chen's movents for now, and keep so distance from that Zhou Yunyang. Pray to again in three months."
Having not probed for his movents, Su Chen couldn't help but feel disappointed, his voice taking on a bit of apprehension: "Can you bestow upon two drops of Divine Blood?"
"What use is Divine Blood?"
Su Chen explained: "There are a few mid-to-high-level mbers of the Bronze Sect who have reached a critical juncture of Erosion. They have so connections with Su Chen..."
"Hmm..." Hei Tuo pondered. Forcefully awakening after Dormancy had cost him quite a lot. Giving up another two drops of Divine Blood right now...
However, this Believer was quite capable in handling matters. As for the matter with Qin Tianlin, it was hard to say whether he was actually deceived or not.
Moreover, he was currently an Advent Body. If he wanted to make a move on Su Chen, it would require long-term planning.
"Do not disappoint again." Hei Tuo's voice was secluded and dead. The surrounding black mist dissipated, leaving only two drops of profound black blood.
"He actually gave it." Su Chen was surprised. He was originally just trying his luck, which made him sigh with emotion, "Lao Hei, oh Lao Hei, what should I say about you."
Su Chen stored away these two drops of black blood. This way, he had accumulated eleven drops of Divine Blood in his hands.
"Calculating the ti, the Ancient Kings and the others should be arriving soon, right?"
