Chapter 156: The Great Unity Spell
Fang Lie was taken aback and blurted out, "Is this real? How can this broken toy compare to the Mo Ancestor’s Pill Scripture?"
"Similar in status, but its true worth depends on its contents," Old Bird replied. "Not all inheritances are equally valuable—some are ordinary. Still, this comes from an ancient sect’s direct lineage. Calling it priceless isn’t an exaggeration!"
"Something’s off," Fang Lie frowned. "I killed nine Inner Elite Disciples, including Bai First Young Master. By all logic, the higher-ups must despise me. Why would they award me something so valuable? This reward far outweighs my contribution."
"True. You’re merely an outer disciple. While your merit is significant, a fifth-rank treasure would’ve been excessive enough. This thing? Practically beyond price," Old Bird mused. "Perhaps those fools upstairs mistook it for trash?"
"Obviously," Fang Lie sneered.
"Well, you’ve gained regardless," Old Bird chuckled.
"Fair point," Fang Lie said, turning to Mao Mao. "Our spirit pills are depleted. Purchase as many as possible—spare no expense. Use these newly refined pills for trade if spirit stones fall short."
He handed her several vials.
Mao Mao nodded dutifully. "Understood." She departed swiftly.
Returning to his closed-door training chamber, Fang Lie produced the beast bone. "How do we unlock this?"
"The Left Dao practiced sinister, unorthodox Dao magic," Old Bird explained. "Though considered extinct, several top ten demonic sects carry their legacy. Their relics vary—eight branches used beast bones. Testing different blood types is our only option. Start with tongue-tip blood."
"Original Essence Blood?" Fang Lie grimaced. "No wonder its origins stayed hidden. Who’d waste precious blood on this dubious object?"
"The Left Dao favored odd rituals. Be grateful it’s not worse—some relics required stabbing daggers into skulls, draining blood and soul energy until users died," Old Bird said cheerfully.
"That’s execution, not inheritance!" Fang Lie exclaimed.
"Sacrifices are necessary for supreme Dao," Old Bird retorted. "Your Divine Phoenix Nirvana Scripture’s Cycle of Fire claimed thousands of Mo Sect disciples. Compared to that, this is mild!"
Fang Lie sighed and spat tongue-tip blood onto the bone. The blood seeped in… but nothing changed.
"Wrong blood type," Old Bird urged. "Try heart blood!"
Another failure.
"Third Eye Blood!" Old Bird insisted.
"You joking?" Fang Lie grumbled. "Who’d waste such precious blood?"
"Higher inheritances demand steeper costs!" Old Bird barked.
Reluctantly, Fang Lie squeezed out a drop of Third Eye Blood. The bone trembled, glowing crimson before shooting a red beam into his forehead.
Ancient script flooded his consciousness sea. Fang Lie fell into deep contemplation.
Three days later, he awoke bewildered.
"What took so long?" Old Bird demanded.
"The Great Unity Spell," Fang Lie muttered. "Sounds like a lovers’ pact."
Old Bird crowed, "A top Left Dao secret! Among their eight hundred techniques, this ranks supreme!"
"It forges a unity knot using Third Eye Blood," Fang Lie said. "Linked souls share harm—if I’m injured, so is my target."
"Not quite!" Old Bird corrected. "You suffer first, then your enemy! Perfect for your undying nature! Gouge your eyes—theirs go blind. Slash your arm—theirs breaks. Die, and they perish!"
Fang Lie’s eyes lit up. "With my immortality, this makes me unstoppable!"
"Within limits," Old Bird cautioned. "Against foes ten times stronger, mutual death. Against hundredfold strength, their injury. Beyond that? Useless."
"But my Qi Sea will exceed a thousand zhang soon!" Fang Lie countered. "With Explosion Qi Technique and Blood Ignition Technique, even Purple Palace realm cultivators might fall!"
"True," Old Bird conceded. "Most Golden Pool realm cultivators have meager foundations. This spell could cripple them."
"Then why’s it considered rare?" Fang Lie wondered. "Sacrificing Third Eye Blood seems wasteful for others."
"Originally for taming demon beasts," Old Bird revealed. "Ancient cultivators controlled beasts tenfold stronger. A single blood drop bought overwhelming combat power!"
Fang Lei grinned. "Now it’s mine."
