Chat group: Fusion of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, Healer Willow Goddess

Page 13

On the earth, a ferocious, blood-red beast with gleaming green eyes lurked, its every pounce capable of tearing apart a mountain! Its claws swept across, leaving behind bottomless spatial rifts! The overwhelming malevolent aura practically overflowed from the live stream!

On the other side, a bright red flame, as dazzling as the sun, danced in the sky. Each breath was a divine fire that could destroy the heavens and the earth, turning large areas of forest into scorched earth, and even melting rocks!

There was also a golden demonic ape, towering and incredibly strong. With a single blow from its black iron staff, space shattered and the earth collapsed!

The aftershocks of their fierce battle were enough to easily destroy a city!

Mountains crumbled! The earth collapsed! The sky trembled! The laws of nature were disrupted!

This is completely beyond the scope of combat that the goddesses can comprehend!

[Peach Blossom Island Master - Huang Rong]: "This...this is...what?! Gods...gods fighting?!"

[Qingyun Sect - Lu Xueqi]: "Is this... the true power to destroy the world...? Compared to this, my Qingyun Sect's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation..."

She couldn't continue; her Dao heart was struck by an unprecedented shock!

[Yunlan Sect Master - Yun Yun]: "Even the legendary Battle of Dou Zun... is nothing more than this, isn't it?"

Yun Yun felt her voice trembling. Her proud Dou Huang cultivation was nothing more than an ant in front of these beings!

[Baiyue-Yan Lingji]: "Oh my, this is...this is terrifying! What...what kind of monsters are these...Xiao Shihao...do you usually live in such a scary place?"

[The quick-witted Feng Baobao]: "Oh... they fought so fiercely... but they destroyed the mountain, do they have to pay for it?"

Feng Baobao's focus remains as peculiar as ever.

Chapter Fourteen: The Vermilion Bird Falls, Obtaining a Precious Technique

The earth-shattering battle for the mountain treasure deep in the Great Wilderness caused terrifying shockwaves that lasted for a considerable period of time before gradually subsiding.

The devastating energy storm slowly dissipated, and the shattered mountains stopped trembling. Only the faint smell of blood and burnt earth lingered in the distant sky, silently telling the story of the fierce battle that had just taken place.

Stone Village.

As the last violent energy shockwave was quietly dissipated by the soft green light emanating from the willow tree at the village entrance, the light shield that had enveloped the entire village, like a divine barrier, silently disappeared into the willow branches, just like melting spring snow.

The terrifying pressure that had been hanging over their hearts completely disappeared, and the villagers of Shicun breathed a long sigh of relief as if they had been granted a pardon. Many of them even collapsed to the ground, their backs already soaked with cold sweat.

"Is it... over?"

"That was terrifying... The commotion just now felt like the sky was about to be punched in a hole!"

"We...we survived?"

A sense of relief at surviving a catastrophe permeated the hearts of every villager. They looked once more at the seemingly ordinary willow tree at the village entrance, which now radiated a faint divine glow, and the gratitude and awe in their eyes reached an unprecedented peak.

"Thank you for your protection, Goddess Liu!"

"Without the Willow Goddess, we would surely be doomed today!"

The villagers spontaneously knelt down again, expressing their deepest gratitude to the mysterious spirit that silently protected their village.

……

Meanwhile, an aftershock was also occurring within the Goddess of the Heavens chat group.

The battle they just witnessed up close through Shi Hao's live stream had a tremendous impact on them!

After the live stream ended, the group chat was quiet for a while as the goddesses were processing the scenes they had just witnessed, scenes that were enough to shatter their worldviews.

[Peach Blossom Island Master - Huang Rong]: "Phew—just now... was that really a realm that human beings could reach? Devouring the heavens and earth, shattering mountains and splitting rocks... My father is known as the Eastern Heretic, and his martial arts are unparalleled, but compared to those people just now, he seems to be less than an ant."

For the first time, Huang Rong's belief in "the greatest martial artist in the world" began to waver. She felt that the world she lived in was far too insignificant.

[Yunlan Sect Master - Yun Yun]: "I wonder if the legendary Dou Zun can rival them? But the power of the laws of heaven and earth that those ferocious beasts stirred up with every move they made far exceeded our previous imagination. If we don't improve our strength as soon as possible, we will ultimately be nothing more than a speck of dust in this myriad worlds."

Yun Yun felt an unprecedented sense of urgency and motivation.

[Qingyun Sect - Lu Xueqi]: "The path to enlightenment is endless. Only through cultivation can one achieve it."

These few simple words revealed the burning desire and yearning for a higher realm of power hidden beneath her frozen heart.

[Baiyue - Yan Lingji]: "You scared me to death~ But... although it was scary, it was also so powerful! If you could have that kind of power, who would dare to bully me?"

In Yan Lingji's eyes, besides lingering fear, there also flickered a longing for that world-destroying power.

[The quick-witted Feng Baobao]: "Oh, it's over? Who won?"

Well, Bao'er's focus is still quite unique.

After being stunned, the goddesses all came to the same conclusion—strength!

Only by possessing sufficient strength can one gain a foothold in this dangerous world, protect oneself, and protect those one cares about!

……

Stone Village, under the willow tree.

Shi Hao also recovered from the shock of that great battle.

"The battle for the mountain treasure... should be over by now, right?" he thought to himself. "Those guys fought so fiercely that the heavens and earth trembled. They must have left behind a lot of good stuff! Like the true blood they lost when they were injured, fragments of precious bones, and so on... Hehe, it's the perfect time to 'pick up the scraps'!"

Thinking of this, Shi Hao immediately perked up!

Here's your chance to make a fortune!

He immediately called out to the Azure Sky Roc, which was squatting beside him and had completely become his "exclusive mount".

"Daqing! Let's go! Take me over there!" Shi Hao pointed to the direction of the battlefield in the distance, which had just calmed down.

Qing Tianpeng now both respects and fears Shi Hao. Upon hearing this, he immediately lowered his head, gesturing for him to come up.

However, just as Shi Hao was about to jump onto Peng's back and set off to scavenge for bargains—

Chirp——! ! !

A mournful and weak bird cry suddenly came from high above!

Immediately afterwards, a fiery red streak of light, like a kite with a broken string, streaked and fell rapidly from the sky, trailing wisps of black smoke!

boom!

The red light finally struck the grass not far from Stone Village, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Huh? What's that?" Shi Hao paused, looking over curiously.

On the grass, a small red bird, about the size of a palm, with feathers as red as burning flames but now appearing somewhat dull and lacking luster, with several feathers missing and its breath extremely weak, was struggling to stand up, but to no avail.

It was the same "little red bird" that had participated in the battle for the mountain treasure!

It was clearly severely injured in that melee, unable to even maintain flight, and fell straight down from the sky!

Shi Hao looked at the distressed little red bird, his eyes darted around, and a surprised smile appeared on his face. He then ran over with his short legs.

"Huh? Is this food falling from the sky?"

Shi Hao squatted down and curiously poked the little red bird's soft feathers, muttering to himself, "Look at its plumage, so glossy and smooth. It's not very big, so its meat must be very tender! Should I roast it or make soup? Hmm... sprinkle some of the spices I got from Sister Huang Rong, it'll definitely taste even better!"

"Chirp—!!! (You dare!!!)"

The little red bird, which was originally on the verge of death, bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on when it heard Shi Hao's words!

It suddenly raised its head, its ruby-like eyes burning with rage, and let out an angry shriek at Shi Hao, even trying to peck at Shi Hao's fingers with its sharp little beak.

Unfortunately, it was too badly injured to even stand, and its fierce attacks seemed so weak and powerless.

"Oh? You've got quite a temper, haven't you?" Shi Hao chuckled, continuing to tease it. "You won't let me eat? Do you want to be my pet? Fine, I just need someone to start a fire. But you have to be obedient, or I'll pluck your feathers and roast you!"

"Chirp chirp chirp!!! (You you you...you rude little brat! You're going to be the death of me! Cough cough cough...)"

The little red bird trembled with anger, aggravating its injuries. It couldn't help but cough violently, and a trace of crimson blood even spilled from the corner of its mouth. Its breath became even weaker.

When has it, a descendant of the ancient divine bird Vermilion Bird, ever suffered such an insult?! How dare a human cub threaten to roast and eat it?

What a shame!

Just as the little red bird was feeling angry and anxious, thinking it was about to "die young," it suddenly sensed the vast life force emanating from the charred willow tree next to it, a force that made its soul feel comfortable and awe-inspiring!

The little red bird's eyes lit up instantly. Forgetting all about being angry with Shi Hao, it quickly sent out a weak mental wave towards the willow tree:

"Chirp chirp... chirp... (Senior... help me... save me...)"

Its voice carried a sense of longing.

Then, the will of the Willow Goddess arrived.

“Saving you is not out of the question, but you must exchange it for the ‘Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique’ inherited in your bloodline.”

Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique?

Upon hearing this, the little red bird was stunned, a hint of struggle and reluctance flashing in its eyes.

The Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique is the most core inheritance of their lineage!

This is a truly supreme and invaluable technique! How could it be easily revealed to others?!

But if we don't exchange them, given its current injuries, it probably won't last long before it completely perishes...

On one side is life, on the other is legacy...

The little red bird was engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

Shi Hao, who was standing next to him, was also watching with great interest. He hadn't expected that Liu Shen would make a deal.

Ultimately, the will to survive triumphed over pride.

"Alright! This junior...this junior agrees!"

The little red bird nodded with difficulty, and then a point of vermilion light lit up between its brows. A mysterious mark, extremely complex and seemingly composed of flame runes, slowly emerged, and it flew unsteadily toward the willow tree.

With a gentle curl of the willow branch, the flame mark was absorbed.

The next moment, a massive amount of supreme mysteries about the Great Dao of Flames flooded into Shi Hao's mind once again!

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have received the Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique as a gift from the Willow God!]

【The Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique: A supreme treasure technique containing the origin of the Great Dao of Flames and the profound meaning of Nirvana. Upon mastery, it can incinerate all things and allow one to be reborn from the ashes!】

Another supreme technique has been acquired.

Shi Hao was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shen made this request because of him.

At the same time, the willow branches once again emitted a rich, vibrant green light, completely enveloping the little red bird.

The abundant life energy and the immortal substances remaining from the Fountain of Immortality surged into the little red bird's body.
