Chapter 91: Blood Light Skill

  Hu Gao's cultivation this time yielded a great harvest, not only did his own realm reach an extreme limit, but he also successfully allowed the Blood Light Snake to complete its first transformation and truly establish a connection with his own Totem, it was indeed an unexpected surprise.

  He had a sudden thought and directly summoned the bloodthirsty Bloodlight Snake. As soon as it appeared, it let out a cold hissing sound and emitted a bloody smell that made people's hair stand on end and their hearts fill with fear.

  Hú Gāo carefully sensed for a moment, seeing nothing out of the ordinary. He then shifted his mind and entered into the Blood Glow Snake's body, wanting to see if he could stimulate one of its skills.

  As his consciousness entered the Bloodlight Serpent, its body suddenly emitted a burst of blood-colored light, dazzling and bewitching, accompanied by a faint humming noise that spread out from within.

  Suddenly, a blood-colored light burst out of the Bloodlight Snake's mouth, transforming into a blood sword that shot onto the wall of the cave. With a "whooshing" sound, the blood sword sliced off large chunks of soil and rocks, scattering them everywhere while also dispersing into a ring of bloody light.

  "Huh? This blood light..."

  At the same time as the blood-colored light appeared, Hu Gao's mind was affected by it and he momentarily froze.

  As soon as he sensed this scene, Hu Gao's eyes widened instantly, his heart was greatly shocked, and he thought of a certain possibility. His mind rushed into the Blood Light Snake again, but this time there was no blood light shooting out, because just as he was about to urge on the Blood Light Snake, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, like being pricked by a needle.

  "It's terrible, triggering the Bloodlight Snake skill is too mentally exhausting, I basically can't trigger it a second time."

  Understood what was going on, Hu Gao didn't rush, sat down cross-legged, and took out a transparent jade-like flower. The flower emitted a refreshing fragrance that made people feel refreshed and invigorated.

  Qingyu flower, specifically used for soul recovery, Hu Gao only has a total of ten.

  He put it directly into his mouth, and the Qingyu flower instantly turned into a clear stream that gushed into his throat, then rushed into his brain. Hu Gao only felt his spirit brighten, his thinking clear, and he no longer had the fatigue and stinging pain from before, feeling extremely refreshed.

  "It's worth spending a Clear Jade Flower to confirm whether Bloodlight Snake really has an effect on the warrior's soul, and it doesn't count as too much of a waste."

  In his mind, Hu Gao once again summoned the Bloodlight Serpent and used its skill. This time he was mentally prepared, and unlike before, he didn't lose his composure. However, from the slight tremble of his soul in his brain, he could confirm that this blood light could indeed affect a warrior's soul.

  "Haha! As expected, this Bloodlight Serpent's skill really can affect a warrior's divine soul. I just don't know how powerful it is."

  Hu Gao excitedly burst out laughing, with the Blood Light Snake skill, he had even more ways to fight, and coupled with his new understanding of Sword Intent Overawing, he could win more opportunities to turn the tide in battle.

  At this time, he sensed the movement and knew that Xiao Wu had finished her cultivation and woke up. A smile suddenly appeared on his face.

  "Wow, I slept really comfortably this time."

  Xiao Wu suddenly shot out from Hu Gao's wrist and fell to the ground. Although he didn't emit a strong aura, his intimidating presence seemed even more solid and terrifying. Seeing Hu Gao, Xiao Wu was also delighted, "Boss, you look pleased, have you made progress in your cultivation?"

  "Haha, progress is not much to say, but it triggered a small skill of the Blood Light Snake, which may be able to attack the warrior's divine soul."

  "Hu Gao laughed loudly and said, 'Xiao Wu, why don't you come try it out and see how powerful it is?'"

  Xiao Wu patted his paw and said, "Great, come on then."

  "Alright, you'd better be careful then..."

  Hu Gao didn't hesitate, and without even condensing the Blood Essence Snake, a blood-colored sword shot out from his body, not giving Xiao Wu any chance to react or dodge, directly entering his body.

  "Oh no, it hurts so much!" At that moment, Xiao Wu let out a painful cry.

  "Xiao Wu, are you okay?"

  Hu Gao's expression changed slightly, and he hastily ran forward, at the same time unhesitatingly pulling out a Clear Jade Flower and handing it to Xiao Wu.

  Xiao Wu didn't hold back either, and a suction force came out of his mouth, sucking in Qing Yu Hua. Only then did his expression look slightly better, "This attack is too painful."

  Hu Gao looked at Xiao Wu carefully for a while, confirming that Xiao Wu was indeed fine. He then let out a sigh of relief and asked: "How's the Blood Light Snake skill?"

  "It's terrible!" Xiaowu said without hesitation: "I'm afraid all the realms of Tongtian will be affected!"

  "Can all first-class warriors in the Linked Realm be affected?"

  Hu Gao nodded, and the joyful color in his eyes became even more intense.

  With his current strength, if he doesn't use the Flowing Star Technique, at most he would only have mid-stage combat power of the Unity Realm. But with the Bloodlight Serpent skill, it will be much easier for him to kill a Unity Realm warrior.

  "Xiao Wu, what level has your cultivation reached now?" Hu Gao came back to his senses and asked the question that he was most concerned about.

  Xiao Wu sneered, "At the peak of the first stage, I believe it won't be long before I break through to a second-stage demonic beast. However, Big Brother shouldn't underestimate my combat strength. If you were to fight me, you definitely wouldn't be my opponent."

  "Is it that fierce?"

  "Cough cough... On one condition, Big Brother, you're not allowed to use Bloodlight Snake's skill."

  "Haha, of course I wouldn't mind using this trick on you."

  At this time, Xiao Wu patted his paw and said: "Boss, I just sensed it, and found that in a cave about five miles away from here, there seems to be many fire-attribute treasures. Do you want to go take a look?"

  "Let's go..."

  Flaming Valley has undulating gullies, with many mountain caves in between. Occasionally, there are rock pools, all of which have red-colored mountain winds.

  A head of green silk hair rushed over, and the mountain wind that blew towards him would change direction strangely just before reaching his body.

  "Xiao Wu, let's find a place with dense fire poison later and try condensing the fire poison pellets?"

  "Alright, there's still some time, let's get a few first." Xiao Wu's voice echoed in Hu Gao's mind.

  Hu Gao nodded, planning to condense some fire poison pellets before entering the Fire Beast Forest. This way, when facing enemies, he would have another means of attack. Moreover, with his current strength and cultivation, the condensed fire poison pellets would be even more powerful, perhaps even capable of dealing with a warrior in the Unity Realm.

  "Boss, it's just ahead in the cave, I can sense a few Black Fire Lotus flowers now."

  Hu Gaoshen's figure flashed and he directly rushed into this cave, hot waves assailed him.

  The cave extends inward, and it's unknown how deep it is, but it's not dark. The deeper you go, the brighter the dim red glow inside the cave becomes.

  Relying on his perception, under Xiao Wu's guidance, Hu Gao gradually went deeper and soon found six black fire lotus flowers. In addition to the black fire lotus flowers, there were several other fire-attribute treasures.

  "Xiao Wu, I think the fire energy here is much thicker than at the entrance. Is there danger ahead?" Hu Gao stopped his footsteps and asked hesitantly.

  "Hmm, the fire energy here is four or five times denser than at the entrance. Boss, I feel that about 100 meters ahead, there seems to be a treasure with a fire attribute density dozens of times higher than the Black Fire Lotus. Do you want to go take a look?"

  "Of course!" Hu Gao found the excitement of treasure hunting, "Is there a problem?"

  Xiao Wu hesitated, "Boss, the intense fire attribute is making my senses gradually dull. Next to that treasure, there seems to be a powerful fire-attribute creature existing. Just now, because of the distance, I didn't even discover that this fire-attribute thing was actually a living being."

  Hu's eyebrows furrowed, could it be a fire-attribute demon beast? And being able to guard such a valuable treasure, it definitely wouldn't be an ordinary demon beast. Without surprise, this demon beast might be a second-tier demon beast.

  "Xiao Wu, can we handle second-level demonic beasts?"

  "Of course!" The first-class divine beast was full of confidence.

  Hu Gao didn't say another word, and took a step forward, his entire body's aura retracted, tightly grasping the Shadowless Sword, and was prepared to take out the Wind Thunder Bead at any moment.

  After turning a small bend, it suddenly opens up, and Hu Gao is shocked to see that the scenery in front of him has changed completely.

  Before my eyes, this huge elliptical abdominal cavity is filled with an intense heat that is almost suffocating. The air is swirling with strands of fiery poison, densely packed like tadpoles in a puddle after a spring rain, sending shivers down my spine!

  In the depths of the cave, a small pool was filled with bright red molten lava-like substance that emitted high temperatures, making it the highest temperature point in the furnace.

  In the small pond, dozens of black lotus flowers floated quietly, wrapped in a faint dark red flame. The black fire lotus flower that grew in the center had scattered petals and surprisingly had a palm-sized lotus seedpod growing out of it.

  "Is this... Black Fire Lotus?"

  Hu's eyebrows rose, his expression filled with excitement. The black fire lotus in front of him was definitely a black fire lotus, and possibly not an ordinary one.

  One black fire lotus seed is equivalent to one black fire lotus flower. At a glance, there are at least thirty or forty black fire lotus seeds.

  "This black fire lotus must be obtained. Also, the black fire lotus flowers beside it, not a single one can be let go."

  Hu Gao licked his lips, this great discovery made him extremely happy, the value of the treasure here was even higher than that in his current spatial ring.

  However, facing the black tadpoles swimming in the air, Hu Gao was extremely embarrassed. At this moment, he felt like a egg hiding in the corner, and once he entered the abdominal cavity, facing thousands of black tadpoles, it would be a matter of life and death.

  There is also a lurking ferocious beast in the dark! Being able to survive in such an environment definitely isn't easy.

  "Boss, shouldn't we give up? This is too dangerous."

  "Xiao Wu, can you sense the strength of that demonic beast?" Hu Gao hesitated, reluctant to give up on the Black Fire Lotus just like that. Entering the Fire Beast Forest would not make things easier than they were now.

  Xiao Wu sensed it again and confirmed, "In the early stage of Tier 2, I'm certain that it's hiding in that pool, but I think this demon beast is not easy to deal with. Do you have a way, Boss?"

  "I've just thought of one, which is that I'm worried this demon beast is too powerful and we can't deal with it." Hu Gao nodded and said, "Look at the fire poison in the sky, although it's dense, it's all floating in mid-air and doesn't get within a meter of the ground. I think it should be because of that red pool. And from here to the pool, there's also a path full of footprints on the ground, I think it should be the path that demon beast takes to enter and exit."

  Xiao Wu poked his head out and took a closer look, saying: "Really! Boss is amazing! If we can lure that demonic beast away, I can pick the Black Fire Lotus. But boss, are you sure you can escape?"

  "I'd rather get rid of this demon beast, the fire energy here is dense, it's just right to condense the Fire Poison Pill, no need to waste time searching again." Hu Gao said, "For now, let's try out this demon beast's strength first."
