Chapter 747: Blood Boiling
At another time, Jiang Yun might not have thought of anything because of Firebird’s words.
But just now, he learned from Guluo’s trio that the entrance to the place they wanted to go was guarded by a powerful spell.
Combined with what Firebird just said, it also encountered a spell where it found the amber square stone.
And this spell happened to be under the roots of the Fusang Tree, which made Jiang Yun very suspicious.
Is the entrance located under the Fusang Tree!
Or perhaps the Fusang Tree was not originally there, but since they discovered the entrance, Fusangzi moved its essence there.
The purpose, naturally, was to hide the entrance and keep it from being discovered by others.
Jiang Yun then asked Firebird, "Have you ever seen such a stone anywhere else?"
"No!"
Firebird shook its head very confidently and said, "Because I have only seen it once under the Fusang Tree, I remember it very clearly."
Jiang Yun nodded, his eyes shining brighter as he said, "So, this kind of rock might be from the place Guluo mentioned!"
"However, just having this rock isn’t enough for me to agree to their invitation to go with them!"
While Jiang Yun was indeed curious about the invitation from Guluo’s trio, he decided to refuse considering his safety.
Because his strength was comparatively weak to Guluo’s group, even with the Soul-Locking Incense on hand, he could be attacked by them at any time.
After all, the Soul-Locking Incense isn’t all-powerful and can be blocked.
Moreover, his Demon Refining Technique was only at a mediocre level, unable to completely seal even the demon race of the Sky Blessed Realm, let alone the monsters of the Daoxing Realm.
Therefore, going to that place would bring more harm than good for him!
Although the amber stone could absorb poison, it still wasn’t worth risking his life for getting it.
Shaking his head, Jiang Yun was about to leave when Firebird suddenly spoke again, "What’s so good about this lousy stone? I’ve tasted it before, it’s so bloody and terrible!"
"The smell of blood?"
Jiang Yun was surprised once again, looking at the nine pieces of amber. He suddenly realized that the color of the amber in this square stone was indeed like the color formed by blood coagulating and drying up for a long time.
At that moment, a word suddenly popped into Jiang Yun’s mind, and he blurted out, "Blood Crystal!"
When he was in Mang Mountains before, he and his grandfather had taken the blood of many demon beasts.
He remembered one time when his grandfather told him that the blood of some powerful demon beasts, instead of drying up and evaporating after leaving their bodies, would gradually coagulate over time into something like a stone.
This thing was called a Blood Crystal!
Blood Crystals were extremely rare and could be used to refine certain special elixirs.
Jiang Yun had never seen a Blood Crystal before, so he hadn’t thought about it just now, but Firebird’s words suddenly reminded him of these things.
Thinking about this, Jiang Yun hesitated for a moment, then suddenly reached out, directly grabbing a piece of amber and holding it up to his eyes.
As the stone was taken out, a loud roar instantly rang out, the whole formation collapsed in an instant and stopped working.
The middle-aged man sitting on the stone outside immediately changed his expression, he was about to stand up, but suddenly heard the voice of Fusangzi in his ear, "No need to go!"
Fusangzi’s words made the middle-aged man who was about to stand up sit down again.
At the same time, a hint of doubt appeared on Fusangzi’s face, muttering to himself, "Did he find out?"
Holding the stone, because it still contained a special power that blocked the entry of divine sense, Jiang Yun could only carefully examine it with his eyes.
The stone was only the size of a palm, the shape was irregular, presenting a square shape.
The more he looked, the more he felt that this square stone indeed looked like congealed blood!
However, when he sniffed it, he couldn’t smell the bloody scent that Firebird mentioned.
After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Yun suddenly exerted force with his palm, trying to crush a corner of the stone.
However, even with all his strength, the stone remained completely unharmed!
Despite his powerful Spiritual strength at the first level, and his strong physical body, Jiang Yun couldn’t believe he couldn’t crush a stone with his strength. If he hadn’t experienced it himself, he would never have believed it.
Although he wanted to try again with the Hidden Tao Sword, he was a bit worried. What if the stone breaks the Hidden Tao Sword? That would be a big loss for him!
However, this almost confirmed for him that this type of crystal is the Blood Crystal!
The source of these Blood Crystals is most likely the monster of Dao they mentioned, Guluo and the others.
"If all the formations here, including the huge vortex formation of the three major forces, are set up by Blood Crystals, then the quantity of Blood Crystals is extremely large."
"That monster of Dao shed so much blood, and wherever it is, it’s filled with restrictions. Is it imprisoned there or guarding something there?"
"In my opinion, the former is more likely, but we cannot rule out the latter possibility. Perhaps like Guluo and the others, he once fought a big battle with cultivators trying to leave where he was guarding and got injured and bled."
Suddenly, Jiang Yun looked at Firebird and asked, "Have you tried this stone?"
"Finished eating!"
"You can bite it!"
"Yes!"
"Bite it for me!"
"No, it’s too yucky!"
As Jiang Yun took out another Heaven Level Spirit-Enhancing Pill, Firebird reluctantly opened its beak and casually poked the Blood Crystal with it.
With a crisp cracking sound, Jiang Yun, who couldn’t crush the Blood Crystal no matter how hard he tried, was astonished to see Firebird easily bite off a piece.
Jiang Yun was left dumbfounded by this scene.
Finally, he understood why Firebird, despite only having the strength of Tao Spiritual Realm, had such strong confidence.
Its mouth is like the sharpest weapon in the world, maybe only a Dao Tool can match its mouth!
And that might just be one aspect of its power!
"Luckily, I have a way to control this Firebird!"
After thinking about this, Jiang Yun watched as the Firebird bit off a small piece of the Blood Crystal and swallowed it with a loud crunch.
"Yuck, it tastes so bloody, not good at all!"
As the Firebird opened its mouth, Jiang Yun finally caught a faint whiff of the blood scent, confirming his suspicion!
"Even if it’s a Blood Crystal, it doesn’t have much effect, as the blood of a creature of Dao does not help me in any way."
Jiang Yun looked back at the Blood Crystal in his hand, running his fingers over the missing piece bitten by the Firebird.
Suddenly, a sharp force burst from the damaged part of the Blood Crystal, piercing Jiang Yun’s finger like a needle.
As a drop of blood flowed from Jiang Yun’s fingertip and landed on the Blood Crystal, a strange scene suddenly took place!
The Blood Crystal that Jiang Yun couldn’t crush no matter how hard he tried started melting in front of his eyes, and it went straight into the wound on Jiang Yun’s fingertip!
This sudden change made Jiang Yun’s face change, as he didn’t know what effect the Blood Crystal merging with his body would have on him, so he instinctively tried to seal his meridians.
However, before he could act, the blood in his body, even the blood in his dantian known as the Boundary Sea, suddenly boiled furiously!
