I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 1933 - Inheriting the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence

Chapter 1933: Inheriting the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence

A crimson-red bead hovered where the Great Empress Vermilion Bird had disappeared.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird had died, yet her Vermilion Bird Heart Essence still remained.

Although the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence had already been broken and battered, it was still able to endure and survive An Lin’s Dark Immortal Sword Strike.

This Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was an existence that was genuinely eternal and singular!

This was something that all beings dreamed of and l.u.s.ted after. This was a supreme treasure that even G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings would go crazy for! If a G.o.d of Creation Stage divine being wanted to break through to the next stage and ascend a Holy Berth, then acquiring such a Heart Essence was a necessary requirement.

Even though An Lin didn’t have a single drop of Vermilion Bird blood, he was still extremely enticed by the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence.

He took a step forward. Then, a feeling of extreme dizziness and fatigue instantly swept over his entire body.

His body swayed lightly, and he just about to fall forwards.

The Dark Immortal Transformation had drained him of all his energy. His condition was so poor now that he wasn’t even able to fly toward the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence!

“An Lin! Are you alright?”

A crisp and pleasant voice traveled over from behind him.

An Lin fell into a soft and warm embrace.

An Lin shook his head as he breathed in the familiar fragrance. Then, he urged, “I’m fine, Xiaolan. Hurry up and refine the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence. That’s an extremely valuable treasure!”

Xu Xiaolan raised her head and looked at the hovering crimson-red bead upon hearing this. Her sealed Vermilion Bird Bloodline throbbed in excitement.

Even An Lin could barely contain himself, so how could Xu Xiaolan—someone who possessed a bloodline that was extremely well-matched with the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence—contain herself? This Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was incredibly tempting to beings who possessed a pure and powerful bloodline.

“Xiaolan, this is a rare opportunity!” An Lin shouted enthusiastically. “Hurry up and refine it!”

“Can I really do it?” Xu Xiaolan felt a little nervous and uneasy.

She had experienced an intense battle just then, so she was in a state of weakness right now. Moreover, the Great Empress Vermilion Bird had used the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence to trick her once, and this made her feel extremely apprehensive toward the crimson-red bead.

Not only that, but she had even sliced the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence into two before. Who knew if the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence held a grudge toward her?

“Believe in yourself! You can definitely do it!” An Lin continued to shout in encouragement.

Xu Xiaolan was swayed by An Lin’s words. She immediately removed the seal in her body and unleashed her complete and pure Vermilion Bird bloodline!

Boom!

The aura of a pure Vermilion Bird bloodline started to proliferate outward.

Meanwhile, the hovering Vermilion Bird Heart Essence suddenly started to quiver violently.

This crimson-red bead had no owner right now, so it could choose a being with a high affinity as its inheritor. The aura of the Vermilion Bird bloodline that Xu Xiaolan released was just to its liking.

Xu Xiaolan was a little dazed.

Say… how do I refine this Vermilion Bird Heart Essence?

The refinement method that the Great Empress Vermilion Bird had taught her before was clearly incorrect. Thus, she was faced with a serious problem right now. How should she refine the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence?

Just as Xu Xiaolan was feeling extremely confused…

Whoos.h.!.+

The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence suddenly shot through the void and dashed toward Xu Xiaolan.

Xu Xiaolan was given a fright. She hadn’t summoned the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence, yet it was actively das.h.i.+ng toward her?

Is it necessary to be so bold and unrestrained?! Where’s your pride as a supreme treasure of the Vermilion Bird Tribe?!

Xu Xiaolan was still feeling extremely nervous. After all, she didn’t know whether the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was charging toward her as a friend or a foe. What if the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence wanted to harm her? What should she do?

As the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence drew closer and closer, she was mysteriously able to make out its many emotions. Only those who possessed the purest bloodlines had the right to read these emotions.

Vermilion Bird Heart Essence: “Boss! Do me!”

Xu Xiaolan: “…”

The crimson-red bead started to panic upon seeing the azure-clothed female’s cold expression. It continued to release its emotions.

“Not only am I heavily wounded right now, but I’m also ownerless. I’m in desperate need of an owner who can nourish me with their power. Out of the entire Vermilion Bird Tribe, only you possess the right to obtain me. Moreover, you’re a perfect successor whose bloodline is on par with the Great Empress Vermilion Bird. So, hurry up and accept me! Swallow me, and then move me to the position of your heart. You’ll be able to fuse with me once you refine me with the blood of your heart.”

Xu Xiaolan’s eyes lit up.

She had just been stressing over how to refine the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence, and right now, the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was actively telling her what to do?

“But I’m only at the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage right now…” Xu Xiaolan said hesitantly. “Will I really be able to refine you?”

“Of course! Being at the G.o.d of Creation Stage isn’t a necessary requirement for acquiring the Holy Berth. It’s just that beings of the other ranks usually aren’t up to our lofty standards. However, you’ve made me change my mind…” The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was extremely eager as it spoke.

As it spoke, its body suddenly started to show more signs of bursting apart. It instantly descended into a state of panic. It frantically flew around Xu Xiaolan and exclaimed, “There’s no time to dilly-dally anymore! Hurry up and refine me! I’ll die if you wait any longer!”

Xu Xiaolan raised her eyebrows and chuckled. “The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence is eternal and singular. It’s an immortal and undying supreme treasure. The Great Empress Vermilion Bird died, yet you were still able to survive. And now you’re telling me that you’re about to die? Who are you kidding?”

Vermilion Bird Heart Essence: “… Okay… I was exaggerating a little.”

The crimson-red bead quivered slightly as it expressed its emotions with difficulty. “My condition right now is similar to if a human is deathless. However, their body has been sliced apart at the hip, and their blood is flowing freely over the ground. He’s crawling on the ground. He’s bleeding, but he continues to crawl on the ground. It’s incredibly painful, and his life essence is also continuously draining away. Although he’s undying, what he feels at this moment is no different from being on the brink of death…”

Xu Xiaolan stroked her chin and nodded. “This a.n.a.logy makes a lot of sense.”

The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was on the verge of tears. “Is now the time to make such remarks? Don’t you see me dragging my shattered and b.l.o.o.d.y body along as I crawl back and forth before you? Hurry up and save me! Please allow my body to heal!”

“Fine.” Xu Xiaolan opened her dainty mouth and swallowed the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence into her body. Then, she moved it to the position of her heart and started to refine it.

However, less than one minute into her refinement, the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence unleashed a rich burst of Vermilion Bird origin energy. Moreover, an extraordinarily holy and ethereal aura started to fuse into her entire body.

Boom!

A column of crimson-red light soared into the sky.

Xu Xiaolan once again became the center of a powerful storm. Winds and clouds within a radius of five thousand kilometers were all whipped up. A peculiar bloodline aura proliferated through the surroundings and triggered the resonance of heaven and earth.

The Six Vermilion Bird Sages were all stupefied upon seeing this.

“The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence was swallowed by Xu Xiaolan?”

“She actually received the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence’s recognition?!”

“No! Hurry up and stop her! We can’t let the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence fall into the hands of a lowly human!”

The Six Vermilion Bird Sages screamed in panic as they writhed about on the ground. However, with their bloodlines already drained and crippled, they couldn’t even near Xu Xiaolan’s body.

However, although they were unable to near Xu Xiaolan, it didn’t mean that other powerful beings were also unable to near her.

Three Dao Integration Stage Vermilion Birds poked their heads out of the clouds. Their eyes dazzled like stars, and there was a look of greed on their faces as they gazed down at the two humans on the ground.

“The two of them have just experienced an intense battle with the Great Empress Vermilion Bird… They’re at their weakest and most vulnerable right now!”

“That male can’t even stand anymore. As for the female, she’s already lost the enhancement provided by the Azure Dragon. Moreover, she’s severely wounded right now, and she’s also busy with refining the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence. There’s no way she can focus her attention elsewhere. Thus, her combat capability is essentially zero…”

“This is our last chance! And it’s also our best chance!”

“Squawk! Kill them!”

“Avenge the Great Empress Vermilion Bird!”

The three Dao Integration Stage Vermilion Birds squawked in fury. Then, they tore through the thick cloud layers and furiously swooped down toward An Lin and Xu Xiaolan!

There was one sentence that they all hadn’t shouted.

The Vermilion Bird Heart Essence is mine!
