C177 Farewell without notice

Inside the quiet cave, a bonfire was blazing fiercely, dispersing the coldness inside the cave.

A person was lying beside a bonfire and sleeping peacefully. He was completely oblivious to everything that had happened. It was unknown how much time had passed before he finally woke up from his slumber.

"What is this place?"

Wu Chen sat up on the ground, his eyes empty and somewhat sluggish. After a while, his consciousness returned and he remembered what happened before.

"A fire."

Without even thinking, Wu Chen knew that this bonfire was definitely ignited by Shun Yan, and the place he was at, should be inside a mountain cave.

Wu Chen crawled up from the ground and shook his head to wake himself up as he sized up the cave.

"Shun Yan."

Wu Chen called out, but the cave was empty, other than the crackling sound of the fire, there was no other response.

"Where did that woman go?"

Wu Chen muttered, but he did not think much about it, just at this time, he suddenly saw something placed on top of a rock in the cave, he walked over curiously.

This was a bottle, and there was also a Parchment Roll. Other than that, there was also a piece of paper pressed under the bottle, on it were some words, very beautiful words.

"Could this woman have left?"

Seeing these, Wu Chen could not help but think like that, he took out a piece of paper from under the bottle. After looking carefully, as he expected, the woman had already left.

"Wu Chen, I'm leaving, don't worry about me, I will take the corpse of the Nine Nether Bird with me. As for the Blood Essence that you need, I left it in the bottle for you, and in addition, I have left a set of Parchment Roll s with a secret blade technique, which I believe will be of help to you. There are still eleven months until Competition of Multi Kingdoms, I hope that you can come."

Wu Chen laughed, put down the paper, picked up the bottle, opened it, and nodded. At least the woman still had a bit of conscience, she was willing to fulfill her promise and keep a bottle of Nine Nether Bird s for him.

"Blade techniques and secret manuals, let me take a look."

Wu Chen opened the parchment and took a look. He was a little disappointed as this saber art manual was only a Superior Grade Earth Ranked Martial Technique and had no effect on him at all. In his mind, there were countless Martial Techniques that he could casually take out.

The Advanced Earth Ranked Martial Technique, what a powerful unique skill! In the entire Hengling Domain, only the Wind Cloud Empire would possess such a skill, and no other countries or regions would have such a skill. If this kind of skill were to spread, it would cause a lot of commotion, and even the expert at Astral Reaching Stage would snatch it from him.

After casually tossing the Parchment Roll into the Storage Ring, Wu Chen didn't care anymore. Right now, he had settled the Nine Nether Bird, and the next thing he needed to do was to purify it. He would extract the bloodline of the Phoenix Bloodline from it, then refine it and absorb it to cultivate the Fire Phoenix Formula.

However, if he wanted to extract the Phoenix Bloodline from so many people, it would not be an easy task. He would need something else to help him in order to succeed.

Those things could possibly be found within the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, but Wu Chen did not have that much patience to personally look for those things. Thus, it was necessary to leave the Demon Cloud Mountain Range and head towards a large city.

Although there were many Demonic Beast inside the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, which were great places for him to cultivate, compared to the Fire Phoenix Formula, he still felt that cultivating the Fire Phoenix Formula was much more important. The two great arts of the Fire Phoenix Formula were the focus of his cultivation, and also the direction of his hard work.

After extinguishing the fire, Wu Chen walked out of the Demon Cloud Mountain Range. After walking for half a day, a huge city appeared in front of him.

Penglian City!

This was a city of a similar scale to the Tiefeng City. Like the Tiefeng City, this was another big defensive city that was protecting against the uprising of Demon Cloud Mountain Range and Demonic Beast. Wu Chen had heard of this city before.

This time's large-scale beast tide only affected Tiefeng City and Devil Cloud City, but was forced back during Tiefeng City, and did not spread to Penglian City. Thus, the condition of Penglian City was very good, and did not suffer the impact of this large-scale beast tide.

As for whether or not the Demonic Beast attack Penglian City, Wu Chen was not too concerned either. What he needed the most right now was to find the materials, purify the Nine Nether Bird, extract the Phoenix Bloodline, and cultivate the Fire Phoenix Formula's Second Stage realm.

With this goal in mind, Wu Chen entered the Penglian City. He did not loiter around and directly went to the market to buy the materials that he needed.

Compared to the materials needed to cultivate Imperishable Gilded Body Technique, the materials needed to purify the bloodline were much simpler. They were all common and relatively fewer in quantity, so Wu Chen was able to quickly find them all.

For him, the greatest difficulty for cultivating the Imperishable Gilded Body Technique, was finding the materials, because there were some materials that were too difficult to find, even in a city, it was not possible to find all of them. For example, when he cultivated the Imperishable Gilded Body Technique, he would have to travel across different cities and regions to gather all of the materials, and also had to borrow the power of the Walmart to successfully gather all the materials.

However, the Fire Phoenix Formula was not the same, as the materials required were usually very simple and there were fewer of them, as well as fewer of them. Basically, they could be gathered in a large city, so in terms of materials, there was no difficulty at all.

If you didn't have the support of the Phoenix's bloodline, it would be impossible for you to cultivate the Fire Phoenix Formula to break through the realm of the Fire Phoenix Formula. As for the Phoenix, it was a Divine Beasts, even if an ordinary person could not find it, it would be difficult to find it, even if they found other types of Demonic Beast. Furthermore, even if they did, it was not certain, because Demonic Beast with their strength, they would not be able to defeat them easily, for example, Nine Nether Bird who had reached the fifth stage in their cultivation. With Wu Chen's power, he would definitely not be able to do so.

Therefore, no matter what type of technique it was, it was not that easy to cultivate. If one wanted to successfully cultivate it, one would need to expend endless energy and effort; otherwise, it was impossible to succeed.
