As soon as Fan Wubing appeared, Fu Manman rushed forward anxiously and asked,

"How are you?"

Fan Wubing said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"What about those demons?"

"Most of them were evaded by me. The ones that caught up..." He grinned, "I killed them."

Fu Manman looked at Fan Wubing, pausing. She did not question how Fan Wubing killed them, nor was she surprised by it. At this moment, what concerned her more was,

"You... are bleeding."

Blood was continuously seeping from Fan Wubing's teeth. He had used the Blood Burning Skill too many times in a row before, and the turbulent qi and blood could not settle down.

"It's a small matter, it'll be fine soon."

Indeed, it was a small matter.

Fu Manman said self-critically, "I should have come to support you faster."

"It's okay, don't worry. Here, this is for you."

Fan Wubing handed the Finger Jade, used to alleviate anxiety, to Fu Manman.

Fu Manman stared at the Finger Jade for a while, then shook her head and said,

"I gave it to you. You also gave me an umbrella before."

"But didn't you need it to alleviate tension?"

Fu Manman lowered her head and said softly,

"That... that was to fool you. It's just an ordinary piece of jade."

Fan Wubing was stunned,

"But I did feel a warm sensation in my heart before."

Fu Manman's voice became even quieter,

"Because... because I cast a Calm Heart Skill on it."

"Why not cast the Calm Heart Skill on me directly?"

"That kind of thing is... very embarrassing."

"..."

...

They had initially planned to go aid Jiang Maodian, but before reaching the North City Garden District, they found him in a dark ditch. It was thanks to Fan Wubing's Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, or else they might have missed him.

He was covered in blood, his qi was weak, seriously injured, soaking in water, trembling all over.

The two quickly took him back to the inn.

On the way back, they encountered many seeking the Fruit of Fortune. They looked excited, rushing towards the garden district where demons were rampant.

Upon returning to the inn, Fan Wubing adjusted Jiang Maodian's disrupted qi flow. Once his condition stabilized and his immortal energy started to self-circulate to heal his injuries, Fan Wubing returned to his room to comprehend the three fortunes.

Likewise, besides the fortunes, "Tongue Desire" also additionally absorbed the "lives" of three demons.

The stories of the three demons were not as complex as that of the Umbrella Demon He Nianyu. They were just ordinary mice, parrots, and snakes, who accidentally passed by the Parasol Tree and received the blessings of fortune from it.

Fan Wubing was just a bit puzzled, why would that Parasol Tree bestow fortunes upon these demons?

The first fortune was harvested from the Mouse Demon.

[Without delusions, without thoughts, no thoughts, no measures]

[You see clearly the cause and effect of past and present lives, liberate the "Mouse Demon", eliminate the karmic burden, and transform yourself]

A foggy fruit matured in his mind.

Fan Wubing plucked and "tasted" the fruit.

This was a mysterious power,

["Ash Immortal's Blessing"]

[Consumable]

[You will receive power bestowed by the "Ash Immortal" in the unseen realms]

Ash Immortal?

Fan Wubing knitted his brows. It seemed like it should be the Mouse Immortal, Ash Immortal, one of the Five Family Guardian Immortals.

It seemed, in this Cultivation World, the Five Family Guardian Immortals were truly existent?

He thought carefully, in folk legends, the Ash Immortal is the God of Wealth, and "mouse" implies spending.

However, this "receiving power bestowed by the 'Ash Immortal' in the unseen realms"... what does it mean?

He meticulously sensed his own body and did not find anything special.

As if this so-called "Ash Immortal's Blessing" did not exist at all.

Did he get the fortune? Yes, he did.

Alright, it's truly "in the unseen realms", imperceptible.

Then he comprehended the second fortune,

[Without delusions, without thoughts, no thoughts, no measures]

[You see clearly the cause and effect of past and present lives, liberate the "Parrot Demon", eliminate the karmic burden, and transform yourself]

Another Fortune Fruit grew in his mind and then matured.

Plucking the fruit to "taste" it, it was also a mysterious power similar to the "Ash Immortal's Blessing."

["Parrot Mimicry"]

[Consumable Item]

[After using "Parrot Mimicry," you can quickly acquire a skill used by someone else, limited to the same major realm]

This is...

A copy-paste technique?

At first glance, it's an item with an extremely high potential.

But a single phrase, "limited to the same major realm," blocks many possibilities.

Think about it, can it really be that if a Mahayana Realm or Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivator displays a divine technique in front of you, you could also "Parrot Mimicry" to learn it? That would be looking down too much on those powerful beings.

However, even though it's limited to the same major realm, if used well, one could steal... or learn useful skills.

Better save it for now.

Fan Wubing wasn't really satisfied with the first two fortuitous encounters because there wasn't anything like the "Seven Luminaries Rain Control Skill" that directly increased his combat power. Without the "Seven Luminaries Rain Control Skill," encountering those three demons earlier would have likely ended in just running for his life.

"The third fortuitous encounter... better give me something that increases immediate combat power!"

He wasn't too hopeful, because the Snake Demon who obtained this fortuitous encounter was the weakest among the three demons.

Reflection,

Condensing the Fruit of Fortune,

Plucking,

Tasting.

Within the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, it was accomplished in one breath.

[The Great Oblivion Heart-Burning Technique]

[Heart Technique Divine Technique]

[No Grade]

[Great Oblivion True Monarch once said: "My body is fire, my heart is fire, my qi is fire, fire moves with qi and blood, and activates life."]

[Thus, exercising this divine technique can calm the heart and mind]

[Great Oblivion True Monarch once said: "To hell with calmness! The more explosive the qi and blood, the more explosive the power!"]

[Thus, when the Great Oblivion Heart-Burning Technique reaches perfection, it gains the innate passive "Heartburn"]

"This..."

The introduction of this divine technique has a rather unique style.

Turns out to be a heart technique divine technique.

In the eyes of many cultivators, heart technique divine techniques are somewhat like a chicken rib: tasteless to eat but a pity to discard. Because most heart technique divine techniques are used to regulate emotions and feelings, providing no direct help to cultivation.

Like Fu Manman previously mentioned "Calm Heart Skill," which is a heart technique divine technique that can calm the mind.

Other than that, there are no other effects.

But heart technique divine techniques are particularly difficult to cultivate. Because they involve the profound nature of "temperament," unlike regular Immortal Dao cultivation techniques and divine techniques, which can be easily cultivated with comprehension.

Most cultivators have unstable "temperaments," making it hard to achieve mastery of a heart technique divine technique.

Over time, these types of divine techniques become somewhat neglected.

Fan Wubing initially felt a bit disheartened seeing the effects of the Great Oblivion Heart-Burning Technique. Because he, having the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, could easily regulate his emotions.

However, once perfected, the innate passive "Heartburn" gives him full anticipation.

The introduction contains a phrase,

[Great Oblivion True Monarch once said: "To hell with calmness! The more explosive the qi and blood, the more explosive the power!"]

"The more explosive the qi and blood, the more explosive the power..."

This phrase is blunt, and the meaning is quite direct.

The more agitated the qi and blood, the stronger the power gained.

The "Blood Burning Skill" has a negative effect,

The longer it lasts, the more agitated the qi and blood become inside the body. This is also why Fan Wubing ends up covered in blood when fighting.

It can be said that as long as he enters a battle state, his qi and blood will remain in constant agitation, deepening continuously.

Therefore,

This "Heartburn" could turn the negative effect of exploding qi and blood into a positive gain?

If that's the case, then this is indeed immediate combat power!

Initially useless, but continuously stackable, growing stronger the longer the fight goes on, passive ability.

"Goodness... if that's how it is, I'll have to stack the passive first before any fight in the future!"

...

Outside the Peach Blossom Spring, amidst the clouds in the sky.

He Youyi couldn't hide his joy,

"Daoist, what's your take? Nine fortuitous encounters appeared overnight. And three of them landed on the person who got the first fortuitous encounter. By count, that's four!"

Zhu Zixuan squinted his eyes,

"So many fortuitous encounters appearing out of nowhere... tsk tsk, this Peach Blossom Spring really is a bit strange. After this is over, we must thoroughly check it. Don't let anything go wrong on my watch."

"This time, you're sure to lose to me. You better think in advance about what kind of Taoist law to explain to the cultivators of Little South Continent when the time comes," He Youyi said with a laugh, "I'll be listening in, so don't think of brushing it off."

Zhu Zixuan lazily said,

"Only four, still three short of being a big haul. The outcome is not fixed yet, there's room for a turnaround. Who's to say it won't be like before, where days go by without any gain. Plus, the more fortuitous encounters one has, the harder it is to gain more."
