Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 165, Fifty-One Strands of the Power of Fire

Buzzzz!

Pop!

Although Chu Ming was not very familiar with the use of soul power, his soul power was exceedingly strong, far surpassing that of ordinary Guiyuan Scripture experts. The moment he launched his piercing attack, the will was obliterated in an instant.

"How is this possible!?"

Qinghao’s eyes glazed over. He had initially wanted to see Chu Ming make a fool of himself, but now his heart trembled. To obliterate the will left by his father within, how powerful must one’s soul power be!

Princess Huoyun and Black Ink were also stunned. They didn’t initially know about the presence of a will in the golden folding fan, but when the shadow appeared just moments ago, it gave off an irresistible feeling. The entire space seemed to revolve around the shadow, undoubtedly containing the will left by a Guiyuan Realm expert.

"This person is terrifying!"

Black Ink was shocked, and his desire to challenge Chu Ming wavered.

After placing the golden folding fan into his storage ring, Chu Ming looked deeply at Qinghao, who turned pale from fright, before turning to leave. Watching Chu Ming’s figure disappear from sight, the three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You two, I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first!"

Qinghao said with a gloomy face. He needed to return to Huangling Kingdom quickly to report the situation to his father and figure out a way to reclaim the golden folding fan.

Upon hearing this, both Black Ink and Princess Huoyun nodded. An Earth Level defensive magical treasure was rare even in a large family like the Qing Family. Losing one would diminish the family’s foundation.

....

Chu Ming took out everything from the three storage rings. Just the middle grade spirit stones alone numbered over three thousand pieces, with even more lower grade spirit stones totaling over fifty thousand. Moreover, in Black Ink’s storage ring, Chu Ming found two hundred-year-old Blood Spirit Flowers.

Aside from these, the storage rings contained various scattered treasures, spiritual medicines, martial techniques, and cultivation techniques, but Chu Ming found none of them impressive.

"The greatest gain this time must be this golden folding fan."

Chu Ming picked up the golden folding fan, and it immediately radiated flashes of light. When the spiritual power dissipated, it became plain and ordinary again, truly mysterious. An Earth Level defensive magical treasure could save Chu Ming’s life in critical moments.

After transferring everything into his middle grade storage ring, Chu Ming’s figure flickered like a refined gust of wind, quickly reaching a hundred meters away.

He needed to leave quickly because the Qing Family experts would soon arrive in the Celestial River Kingdom, making it extremely difficult to escape then.

Finding a portal of light in the Blood Demon Sea, Chu Ming leaped through the light curtain, leaving the Blood Demon Sea.

Without returning to his rented courtyard, Chu Ming headed directly to the gates of Lanyu City. At the gates of Lanyu City, countless citizens of the Celestial River Kingdom were bustling about, showing a lively scene. As for why Chu Ming didn’t kill all three of them, he had his concerns.

Princess Huoyun represented Celestial River Kingdom’s royal family, and Black Ink represented the Black Water Sect. Robbing their storage rings was a competition among the younger generation, but killing them would be declaring war against two-thirds of the forces in the Celestial River Kingdom, making escape almost impossible.

Additionally, their strength was not weak. Chu Ming thought it wasn’t realistic to kill all three. He could kill one, maybe two, but not all three.

As for the Qing Family, Chu Ming wasn’t concerned. After all, this was the Celestial River Kingdom, not Huangling Kingdom. Even if the Qing Family sent experts, they wouldn’t send too many, lest they raise the alert of the entire Celestial River Kingdom.

But to be safe, Chu Ming still needed to leave quickly. After exiting Lanyu City, he flew southward towards the border of Qingqiu Kingdom, where the Qing Family couldn’t touch him.

...

Just after Chu Ming left, the Sovereign of Celestial River Kingdom informed Qing Song, the Patriarch of the Qing Family, of the happenings in the Blood Demon Sea. Originally, Princess Huoyun wasn’t hurt, so the Sovereign wasn’t planning to pursue the matter, but he had to put up a front before Qing Song.

Half a month later, Chu Ming arrived in a small town, casually finding an inn to stay in. He planned to absorb all the Blood Spirit Flowers in his storage ring to see how much power of fire could be refined.

He had five hundred-year Blood Spirit Flowers, two of them taken from Black Ink, and three found using his White Compass. There were also over a dozen fifty-year Blood Spirit Flowers.

Refining a fifty-year Blood Spirit Flower, a warm stream immediately flowed through Chu Ming’s body, indicating the generation of fire essence power. However, after refining the entire fifty-year Blood Spirit Flower, he felt slightly disappointed.

A fifty-year Blood Spirit Flower didn’t yield even half a trace of fire essence power.

Continue!

Chu Ming continuously refined the fifty-year Blood Spirit Flowers, with his fire essence power steadily growing, eventually generating subtle movements of fire essence.

Boom!

A trace of yellow light appeared within his body, indicating a trace of fire essence power. By the time Chu Ming finished refining all the fifty-year Blood Spirit Flowers, he had only refined two traces of fire essence power, bringing the total to seventeen traces.

Next, he refined the hundred-year Blood Spirit Flowers. From the first flower, he obtained eight traces of fire essence power!

The second flower yielded seven traces!

The third flower yielded seven traces!

....

After refining five hundred-year Blood Spirit Flowers, his body contained fifty-one traces of fire essence power, which constantly surged within him, making his body resemble a blazing furnace radiating heat.

Simultaneously, while refining fire essence power, his overall strength rose to thirteen hundred Tiger Power, marking a significant improvement.

Resting with his sword by his side, Chu Ming maintained constant vigilance. Along the way, he heard numerous bounty notices in the Celestial River Kingdom, all targeting him; yet, the efforts seemed half-hearted, mostly for show.

Tomorrow, he would cross the border between the Celestial River Kingdom and Qingqiu Kingdom, making the bounty efforts futile.

Morning.

Having paid for his lodging, Chu Ming was ready to leave the inn, when he sensed something. Abruptly looking up, he saw a giant gray beast soaring across the sky, exuding immense power, with numerous figures standing on its back.
