Chapter 372: Chapter 247: The Descendant of the Demon Saint, Golden Bloodline! (For Silver Alliance add more 25/53)
Beast God Mountain.

Jiang Yuan and his companion appeared by Pan Hua’s side.

“Brother Jiang, you arrived at the right time indeed!”

Pan Hua said with an undertone of admiration.

Jiang Yuan grinned, “How could I deceive Brother Pan?”

His gaze then swept all around.

He scanned the distance once again, glancing at the Demon Tribe of the Southern Ridges on the opposite hillside.

The humans and demons each occupied a hilltop here.

Neither side had many members.

On Pan Hua’s side, there were only about a dozen people, all of whom were at least at the fifth level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

From Jiang Yuan’s point of view, most of these people were likely independent cultivators or from small powers.

The so-called Phoenix Blood Herb was ultimately only a thing of record.

From ancient times to the present, as far as Jiang Yuan knew, it had been over a million years.

Throughout this long stretch of time, the Phoenix Blood Herb had been recorded to have surfaced fewer than five times.

Including the unexposed Phoenix Blood Herbs, there are probably only around a dozen or so.

So when Jiang Yuan saw the crowd here, he immediately understood.

He had been thinking too much before; not many heaven geniuses would converge here.

Most of the heaven geniuses come from significant forces.

Not many would choose to come all the way here for the elusive Phoenix Blood Herb, not only delaying their cultivation but also likely returning empty-handed.

Centuries of growth of a spiritual plant were not worth the fuss to the young heaven geniuses.

On the contrary, for those solitary cultivators or those born from small forces, this was considered a pretty good gain, worth them coming all the way here.

A few men full of fighting spirit were different.

They were the real young heaven genius, and their most probable reason for coming here was to fight and practice against the Demon Tribe.

Jiang Yuan opened the Status Panel for each of these people to take a look, and he knew their strengths as well as he knew the back of his hand.

Besides Pan Hua, who possessed the sixth level of Dharma-nature Realm, the next strongest was a man who was a cultivator at the second level of Dharma-nature Realm.

This man had a relatively ordinary innate qi luck movement, with only two strands of the blue qi luck, and he clearly looked older.

Just now, when this man saw Jiang Yuan’s gaze sweeping over, he showed a faint smile.

But Jiang Yuan detected a strong sense of murderous intent from him.

This indicated that this man was not simple, definitely a veteran of many battles.

With his ordinary innate qi movement, he managed to reach the significant cultivation of the Dharma-nature Realm.

From this, Jiang Yuan could tell that this man’s desire for the Dao was exceptionally firm.

The cultivation he possessed, judging from his innate qi movement, must have been hard-earned.

Because his talent in this realm was quite ordinary, and he did not look like he came from a prominent background.

From the far-off hilltop, not many came from the Southern Ridges Demon Tribe.

There were only six in total.

The highest realm among them was a man with a stern face.

Jiang Yuan recognized his true body from his transformed features. This man’s original body belonged to a spiritual crane clan.

He was at the seventh level of the Dharma-nature Realm.

Next to him was another male member of his clan who had a striking resemblance after transformation.

Both demons possessed golden merging energy.

Aside from these two demons, the remaining four included a majestic golden lion.

A giant brown bear.

A silver wolf lying on the ground resting.

And a transformed female’ which from her features could be recognized as belonging to the Feather Tribe.

Of these four demons, only the lion possessed golden merging energy.

Jiang Yuan immediately opened its Status Panel to take a look.

[Name]: Xin Ba

[Realm]: First level of Dharma Image Realm

[Innate Qi Yun]: Golden Bloodline (Purple), Descendant of Demon Saint (Blue), Innate Super Strength (Blue), Cultivation Prodigy (Green)…

[Golden Bloodline]: Its bloodline originates from a supreme existence. Possessing this bloodline significantly enhances potential and boosts combat prowess.

[Descendant of Demon Saint]: A direct descendant of a Demon Saint, greatly increasing comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth.

[Innate Super Strength]: Born with a strong body and terrifying divine strength.

[Cultivation Prodigy]: Outstanding talent in the way of cultivation.

Jiang Yuan glanced over everyone and then, with a move of his mind.

Strands of golden qi of luck quickly flowed into his Status Panel.

The fluctuating Qi Yun Power finally settled at 2601 strands.

Not bad!

Jiang Yuan nodded in satisfaction in his heart, and then secretly sighed.

Indeed, the fastest way to collect Qi Yun Power is to venture out.

Just one trip to the Phoenix secret realm had brought me over a thousand strands of Qi Yun Power.

If I could have such a reward a few more times, I could easily amass ten thousand strands of Qi Yun Power.

Then a new strand of Golden Innate Qi Yun could be born.

Jiang Yuan then closed the Status Panel.

Quietly waiting for the opening of the Phoenix secret realm, the recently increased Qi Yun Power was just an appetizer.

The real big harvest was inside.

Now that the first variation of the Supreme secret technique has succeeded, Jiang Yuan was full of confidence.

At that moment.

A handsome-looking monk walked over and said, “The little monk greets the benefactor!”

Jiang Yuan looked at this bald monk and smiled, “Master Bo Ruo, hello there!”

“I dare not take the title of “Master”! Please don’t flatter me!”

Bo Ruo repeatedly refused.

“Why do you think you don’t deserve it? Master Bo Ruo, you have a great sense of righteousness, and you have always done good deeds. You fully deserve the title of “Master”.”

Jiang Yuan looked at Bo Ruo’s Status Panel and smiled mysteriously.

[Name]: Bo Ruo

[Realm]: Ninth level of Divine Bridge Realm

[Innate Qi Yun]: Born as Buddha’s Child (Purple), Doing Good and Accumulating Merits (Purple), Innate Wisdom Root (Blue), Turn Bad Luck into Good Fortune (Blue), Martial Arts Spirit Child (Blue)…

[Born as Buddha’s Child]: Has a fate with Buddha, born as a Buddhist cultivator,ing this aspect with high talent!

[Doing Good and Accumulating Merits]: As long as he does good deeds in his heart, he will gain merit. The greater the good deed, the more the merit, and merits can help him to cultivate Buddhist divine power and boost his cultivation.

In Jiang Yuan’s eyes, this Bo Ruo was not an ordinary heaven genius.

It’s not the double purple luck that’s against the sky. What’s against the sky is that merit from doing good.

This purple innate qi movement was truly terrifying. It seemed to play by its own rules and was extremely subjective.

This talent was also quite formidable.

If he could fully utilize this innate qi movement, his future achievements would certainly not be low.

Master Bo Ruo felt a jolt in his heart when he heard Jiang Yuan’s words.

Jiang Yuan suddenly seemed somewhat mysterious in his eyes.

They had only met twice, how did he know that I have constantly been doing good and accumulating merit?

This secret was the biggest one in Master Bo Ruo’s heart. He had long discovered that doing good deeds would earn karmic retribution from heaven and earth, as was described in the Buddhist tales of merit.

It was precisely relying on merit that had allowed him to come this far at such a young age and become a candidate for the Buddha’s child of the Buddha Gate.

It was also relying on merit that his primordial spirit had already been born, only a step away from the Dharma Realm!

He had never told anyone about this secret, let alone announced it to the public.

His reason for approaching Jiang Yuan this time was to make it easier to help Jiang Yuan after they entered.

Because he recognized Jiang Yuan’s identity, the heaven genius of Qianyuan Kingdom, who had once slain several heaven geniuses of the Demon Tribe in the Pearl Cave.

He admired him a lot.

He also knew that Jiang Yuan had made it onto one of the Demon Tribe’s murder lists.

This list wasn’t particularly special.

Young heavens geniuses with great reputations in the human race, and those venerables, cultivators with great abilities, and saints whose potentials had not yet been exhausted were all on this list.

As long as any demon killed any person on the list, they could receive lavish rewards.

So Master Bo Ruo knew that Jiang Yuan entering the True Phoenix Secret Realm would definitely draw the siege of several demons from afar.

That was also the reason he had approached Jiang Yuan.

If he could help Jiang Yuan through this crisis, he would certainly get a huge return of merit.

In his heart, one of the true good deeds was to save the heaven geniuses of the human race. When they grew up, one person could be worth tens of thousands of others, and this was a great good deed.

But Jiang Yuan’s words just now made him nervous, and he was sweating from his hands and feet.

Did this man discover something?

Jiang Yuan’s meaningful smile gave him the instinctive feeling that his secret had been discovered.

This feeling didn’t come out of nowhere, it was because he was currently cultivating one of the six supernatural powers of Buddhism.

The mind power.

Master Bo Ruo quickly suppressed his nervousness.

“Benefactor Jiang, you must be careful when entering the Secret Realm of the True Phoenix. You have made it onto the Demon’s bounty list. Whoever kills you will undoubtedly get a huge reward.”

Hearing this, Pan Hua’s expression instantly became serious.

“Is this true?”

Bo Ruo nodded, “Indeed, this benefactor is the top heaven genius of Qianyuan Kingdom. Not long ago, he killed several geniuses of the Demon Tribe in Pearl Cave. Therefore, he was put on a bounty by the Azure Sea Dragon lineage of the East Sea Demon Tribe, and thus made it onto one of the murder lists of the Demon Tribe.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan was somewhat puzzled: “Master Bo Ruo, what is a kill list?”

Pan Hua said: “It is a kind of bounty that the Demon Tribe has for the heaven geniuses of the human race. Anyone who is on this list will certainly receive a rich bounty. Anyone or demon who fulfills the mission can claim the reward.”

“So once you are on this list, you will inevitably run into some troubles!”

Jiang Yuan nodded, beginning to understand.

Pan Hua continued: “But there is no need to worry too much. I am also on this kill list. Over the years, many demons have died at my hands!”

Master Bo Ruo shook his head: “The reward for Jiang Benefactor is far more important than that of Benefactor Pan from Langya!”

“More important than me?” Pan Hua was surprised.

“Yes!” Master Bo Ruo nodded, “The bounty for Jiang Benefactor is comparable to the last of the heaven geniuses on the Supreme Ranking.”

Pan Hua’s eyes widened in shock, and his face was filled with incredulity.

He knew Jiang Yuan’s realm quite well.

It was only the Ninth Level of Divine Bridge Realm!

What did he do that made the demons so angry to the point that his bounty was so high?

To be on the Supreme Ranking meant that, as long as they continued to grow, their future potential would be at least at the level of cave cultivators, and even a few could attain the Dao Fruit of the Saints.

There was even a slim chance to reach that realm.

The Supreme!

This realm brought with it a title that lasted for eternity, and it also meant a life that lasted for ten thousand years.

To the best of his knowledge, only a few people in the world had touched this realm.

Whether they had completely entered it, he did not know.

Dugu Bo was one who had touched this realm.

So, it was only natural that the bounties for the geniuses listed on the Supreme Ranking were high.

But that his young disciple’s bounty equaled theirs was just too unreasonable.

Who was the demon from the Demon Tribe’s Ancestral Master that he had a deep hatred with, that they were willing to pay such a high price?

At this moment.

After hearing Master Bo Ruo’s words, Jiang Yuan also understood.

It seemed that in the eyes of Ao Lie, or the Azure Sea Dragon Tribe of the East Sea, he was extraordinarily important!

The value of his bounty was equivalent to the heaven geniuses on the Supreme Ranking?

He had seen those kinds of geniuses with his own eyes.

Wei He from the land of Taian, whose existence was at the Ninth Level of Dharma Image Realm.

When he faced Ao Lie, who was also at the Ninth Level of Dharma Image Realm, he could kill him with one palm.

The gap in their combat powers was not small at all!

How could his performance be comparable to his? Was it so important to invest such a large price to kill him?

Could it be because of Qianyuan Kingdom?

Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of the bloodline of Zhou Qiu and others.

If it was because of Qianyuan Kingdom, then it might make sense.

If he was in Qianyuan Kingdom, as long as he grew up, he would be a huge hindrance to the unification of the territory by the Qianyuan Imperial Family, breaking the sects, and destroying the temples.

Plus, his performance back then further deepened their hatred and wariness of him.

Thinking about these things, Jiang Yuan’s heart gradually became heavy.

It should be this!

If it is really so, then he cannot slack off at all.

He must break through to the Dharma Realm as soon as possible.

A clear target is easy to avoid, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against.

Only strength can guarantee everything.

As for the protection of the Holy Institute and even Dugu Bo.

They weren’t protectors of the Dao, and they couldn’t always follow him around. If he died unexpectedly.

Then everything would eventually return to dust and ashes.

All Dugu Bo could do was to take revenge!
