If he could gather the prerequisites for the first step of the Blood Sacrifice, and then with the aid of the Fire Phoenix Blood and soul, he should be able to transform the divine peculiarities of the Fire Phoenix Bloodline into his own. Surely, this would make his path of cultivation extrely broad and smooth.
Unfortunately for him, this option might as well not exist.
If he couldn't deal with Xiahong Lie, even if he could refine the Fire Phoenix Bloodline, facing the high and mighty Xiahong Clan, he would probably still be on a path to death.
Therefore, his only choice was to refine Xiahong Lie's bloodline and soul.
The creator of this Blood Jade of All Spirits, who dared to call the Divine Emperor an "old thing", committing such outrageous blasphemy, must be a peerless individual among the top few in the world.
Moreover, those of the Demon Path were listed by the Xiahong Clan as must-kill targets, ever fearful of not hiding deep enough.
Such a person suggested that the God Emperor's bloodline was the best choice, rely not doing so out of fear of the divine challenges the Emperor might send. With that in mind...
It was likely that the Blood Jade of All Spirits could resolve issues such as the world resonating with the death of a prince, and the curses of resentful souls.
After all, the world resonance with the prince's death was due to the Bloodline Divine Power, and the curses were because of the soul. Since the Blood Jade of All Spirits could refine both bloodline and soul, theoretically, it could also solve these difficulties.
Of course, Lin Yue was only speculating based on the information known so far.
What the actual outco would be, he couldn't be sure.
But at least in his view, the possibility was not small.
In this world, there's never a perfect solution.
Now that he had co this far, he wouldn't shrink back.
"As for the source of the Xiahong Clan's bloodline, His Majesty the God Emperor might send down divine challenges because of this..."
Lin Yue's gaze was calm, showing no sign of wavering.
He turned his thoughts to other problems.
"To activate the Blood Jade of All Spirits, the first step is the Blood Sacrifice, which is to soak the Jade Pendant in blood."
"The first step of the Blood Sacrifice requires the essence blood of nine cultivators who have broken through the Five Elents Heavenly Barrier or half the essence blood of one cultivator who has broken through the Four Symbols Heavenly Barrier."
Lin Yue frowned slightly, then glanced at the Glazed Box on the stone table.
Inside the box was the Fire Phoenix Blood and its soul, which he wasn't going to use for fusion and refining, so perhaps it could be used for a Blood Sacrifice?
However, that deep voice ntioned the need for a cultivator's essence blood, with specific requirents for the realm.
He also didn't know whether Fire Phoenix Blood counted as a cultivator's essence blood, nor the realm of the Fire Phoenix before its death; even less certain was whether the blood of a non-human species like the Fire Phoenix could be used for the sacrifice.
But he had to try.
If he could refine Xiahong Lie's bloodline and soul right now, that would be more than ideal.
At that ti, he could use the Shape-shifting to beco Xiahong Lie, return to Qingdu to et Baili Fengzhi, find an excuse to release the old drunk, and then think of a way to slip away.
Although this would also bring many hidden dangers, the Xiahong Clan might still investigate, and Baili Fengzhi would surely be suspicious, it would certainly be more trouble-free.
The subsequent troubles could be dealt with later.
"Let's give it a try now."
Lin Yue couldn't help feeling anticipatory inside.
Of course, he didn't rush off to find Xiahong Lie imdiately; instead, he used a small knife to cut his finger, sared a drop of fresh blood between his eyebrows to undo the Shape-shifting, and quickly reverted back to his original appearance.
Then, without removing the Shape-shifting, with a re thought, he transford again into that jade-like beauty amidst the surging fiery flow.
Anyone who has been deconstructed and analyzed by the Shape-shifting would be 'recorded' and could be turned into any of the recorded individuals at will.
After reverting to the jade-like beauty, Lin Yue subconsciously gave a slight twist, exposing a touch of his fair shoulder.
His mouth twitched slightly, and he expressionlessly pulled his collar up.
After that, he took the Jade Pendant and the Glazed Box containing the Fire Phoenix Blood, stepped out of the Cave Mansion, crossing over the two corpses and the rusty iron sword lying in between.
If he had overlooked this step, that iron sword might have cut him down on the spot, so it was better to be cautious.
With footfalls echoing, Lin Yue, holding a Bright Pearl, briskly walked through the dark caves, soon coming before Xiahong Lie who was still unconscious.
If the Blood Sacrifice was successful, he would refine him right there.
"Let's see."
Lin Yue first took out the gourd ladle he had prepared and placed it on the ground. Then he extracted the diminutive Glazed Box.
After gently prying open a small gap in the box, the peculiar musk scent mixed with the fragrance of sweetgum wood diffused out.
Then, Lin Yue took out the Blood Jade of All Spirits, placed it in the gourd ladle, and cautiously tilted the Glazed Box in his hand, slowly pouring a thin thread of Fire Phoenix Blood onto the Jade Pendant.
The next mont, he saw the golden-hued Fire Phoenix Blood touching the Blood Jade of All Spirits.
But...
There was no response.
Soon, half of Blood Jade of All Spirits was soaking in the Fire Phoenix Blood, but it remained unresponsive, as if it were just an ordinary Jade Pendant.
Lin Yue didn't give up, and before long, he filled the ladle with Fire Phoenix Blood.
This small Glazed Box seed to have the ability to store items. It looked much smaller than the ladle, but even after the ladle was filled, the Fire Phoenix Blood in the diminutive Glazed Box didn't seem any less.
But what left Lin Yue feeling helpless was—
The Blood Jade of All Spirits had no response at all.
According to what the deep voice had said, once the Jade Pendant completely turned the color of fresh blood, it ant the Blood Sacrifice was complete, and the Jade Pendant could then be activated.
