Yin Yue Mountain.
After many days of battles, Fang Yuan had gathered a vast amount of Blood Qi.
Because of its massive volume and the ongoing battles, there was no time to refine and absorb all the Blood Qi.
To avoid waste, Fang Yuan let the Bloodthirsty Gu devour about half of the Blood Qi, allowing it to store and refine, planning to absorb it later upon returning to Yin Yue Mountain.
At this moment, in the dim valley of Yin Yue Mountain, black mist surged, with flashes of red light occasionally visible, emitting a chilling wave from the darkness.
Within the black mist, Fang Yuan's massive figure was submerged in the Cold Pond, emitting a faint blood glow all over, while the Ten Thousand Souls Banner floated overhead, with ghostly wails faintly heard.
Fang Yuan closed his eyes, focused on refining the Blood Qi, as the Bloodthirsty Gu within him spat out pure Blood Qi, transforming into a steady stream, continuously being refined, with the blood-colored Spiritual Power in his meridians surging throughout his body, finally converging into the blood-colored Demon Pill in his abdomen.
As the Blood Qi was refined, Fang Yuan's aura visibly increased, slowly approaching the mid-stage barrier of the fifth rank.
Enhancing a fifth rank cultivation was exceedingly difficult.
If not for conquering and gathering the Blood Qi of millions of fierce beasts, Fang Yuan's cultivation wouldn't have progressed so easily.
As time passed, the originally gleaming Bloodthirsty Gu, resembling a blood crystal sculpture, gradually dimmed, with the pure Blood Qi stored within rapidly depleting, soon to be entirely refined by Fang Yuan.
Unexpectedly, loud shouting came from outside the valley.
"Big brother!"
"Big brother!"
Thud thud thud~
With a series of deafening footsteps, the massive Vajra Giant Ape crossed the demon soldiers guarding and came to the front of the valley.
"This Vajra is causing a ruckus again! I've warned it repeatedly, this Demon Monarch is in seclusion and training, not to be disturbed without reason. Clearly, this fool hasn't listened at all!"
Immersed in cultivation, Fang Yuan opened his eyes, filled with anger, ready to teach it a lesson.
The next moment, Fang Yuan suddenly rose from the Cold Pond, as the Ten Thousand Souls Banner absorbed all the pervasive black mist, illuminating the entire valley.
Then, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner slightly trembled, transformed into a streak of blood light, and flew into Fang Yuan's body.
The blood glow around him gradually receded, as Fang Yuan ended his cultivation, stepping out of the Cold Pond, walking slowly towards the outside of the valley, exuding a penetrating chill.
He arrived at the valley entrance.
Seeing the excited Vajra Giant Ape, Fang Yuan's anger surged, about to severely admonish this fellow.
"Big brother, you finally came out. Something big happened outside. I have important news to report!"
Upon seeing Fang Yuan, the anxious Vajra Giant Ape was instantly delighted, quickly approaching and happily exclaimed.
This statement caused Fang Yuan to pause, temporarily suppressing his anger, and coldly asked, "What happened?"
"Big brother, not long ago, Kunlun Mountain showed a shocking phenomenon, a purple light beam shot to the sky, surely a treasure is about to emerge! Now, it's all over the Great Qin Empire's network, trending wildly, and it seems many human Extraordinaries are heading to Kunlun Mountain."
Hearing his big brother's slightly off tone, the Vajra Giant Ape was struck with fear, unsure of its offense and dared not delay, promptly relaying the news seen on the internet to Fang Yuan.
"A treasure appearing? Purple light beam?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up with delight.
Isn't this just like when a Spirit Treasure appeared on the Great Prairie last time?
It's likely, this time, a Spirit Treasure is emerging on Kunlun Mountain as well.
To further confirm, Fang Yuan hurriedly took out his communicator to check.
After the battles, he had been busy cultivating, neglecting the outside world, a grave oversight indeed!
Subsequently, Fang Yuan browsed the internet, reviewing multiple videos shot by residents of cities near Kunlun Mountain in the Great Qin Empire.
The scenes in these videos were almost identical, only differing in angle and distance. The most striking feature was the purple light beam that pierced the sky, dyeing the entire sky a shade of purple.
"Haha, indeed it's a Spirit Treasure emerging!"
Comparing the purple light beam in the video to the golden light beam seen on the Great Prairie before, Fang Yuan laughed with excitement.
A Spirit Treasure, another Spirit Treasure!
Although he already possessed a Spirit Treasure—the Ten Thousand Souls Banner—who would complain about having too many Spirit Treasures?
In an instant, a sharp glint flashed in Fang Yuan's dark eyes.
Last time, I was outmatched and couldn't obtain that Felling Sky Halberd.
This time, I won't let it slip by!
"Right, big brother, I just saw on the network that the Great Qin Empire official has sent many to Kunlun Mountain, and many more must have gone privately. Perhaps, those Revivers who appeared in Qingyuan City last time will also be there."
At this moment, the Vajra Giant Ape suddenly remembered something, slapped its forehead, hurriedly took out its communicator and opened the screen to display relevant information.
Hearing this, Fang Yuan looked up at the webpage displayed by the Vajra Giant Ape, discovering indeed it was a message officially released by the Great Qin Empire.
This time, the Great Qin Empire is led by that little Sword Immortal girl.
Upon seeing this, Fang Yuan sneered coldly in his heart.
Mere rabble, if it weren't for that bald donkey's sneak attack last time, how could I have been thwarted by that group of trash…
To Fang Yuan, as long as the big brother doesn't intervene, the Spirit Treasure about to emerge is surely his, and no one else should even think of competing with him.
"By the way, those two so-called National Preceptors of the Great Qin Empire, will they be going this time? Especially that bald donkey?"
Suddenly, Fang Yuan's eyes filled with killing intent, as he fiercely asked the Vajra Giant Ape beside him.
Thinking of that bald donkey made his blood boil, truly despicable!
In his past life, as a dignified Ancient Demon Monarch, a great giant of the Demon Dao, to be schemed against by a mere bald donkey, it would be a laughingstock for the enemies.
"Big brother, I don't know either, there's no information online. They are National Preceptors, if they go, the Great Qin Empire should report it, right?"
The Vajra Giant Ape shook its head like a rattle-drum, uncertainly replied.
"Not necessarily, humans are extremely cunning…"
Fang Yuan squinted, regardless of whether they go or not, given the chance, he would kill that bald donkey to ease his mind.
Next, Fang Yuan made arrangements on Yin Yue Mountain, having his demon soldiers guard various places, forbidding any unauthorized movement.
Then, unable to wait any longer, he flew on the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, heading northwest towards Kunlun Mountain.
