Chapter 229 - 229: You Really Have Many Good Things. They’re All Mine Now! (2)
However, according to Han Zhao’s past actions, he did not seem to be blindly confident.
After passing through the narrow passageway, Han Zhao arrived at the secret room again.
There was still the faint sound of waves crashing in his ears.
A tall and burly middle-aged man had his back facing Han Zhao. He stood in the middle of the secret room with his hands behind his back and looked up at the Furious Flood Dragon Painting hanging on the wall of the secret room. He had a head full of white hair and wore a luxurious blue robe. It was
Shangguan Yunfei.
“Master.” Han Zhao bowed slightly.
Shangguan Yunfei turned around and sized up Han Zhao. He nodded slightly and said, “You’re here.”
He was sizing up Han Zhao, and Han Zhao was also observing him.
Compared to last time, Shangguan Yunfei looked much better. His face was rosy and his voice was full of energy. He looked like he was not injured at all.
However, after Han Zhao comprehended the Dragon Blood Sac Secret Technique from the Furious Flood Dragon basic diagram, his perception of blood qi was very sharp.
The blood qi flow in Shangguan Yunfei’s body was a little obscure. This was not a situation that a Five Qi Grandmaster in perfect condition would have.
He was bluffing.
Han Zhao thought to himself, “System, how’s his current state?”
[Requesting to check martial artists of the same realm who are far superior to you requires an additional 100 taels of gold.]
Good lord, it was desperate for money.
“If I fight him directly now, what’s my chance of winning?” Han Zhao changed his question.
[This question requires the payment of 200 taels of gold.]
“If I ambush him when he’s not prepared, what’s my chance of winning?” Han Zhao changed his question.
[This question requires the payment of 5 taels of gold.]
“Alright, I understand. I won’t ask anymore.” Han Zhao laughed in his heart.
Seeing that Han Zhao was silent with his head lowered, Shangguan Yunfei said in a deep voice, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Weren’t you very good at talking yesterday?”
Han Zhao cupped his fists and bowed. “Master, I was just bluffing yesterday to prevent them from going too far!”
“Do you know that this will bring disaster to the Furious Flood Dragon Gang?” Shangguan Yunfei’s face darkened, and his aura soared.
“Master, I…”
“How dare you! How dare you quibble!”
Shangguan Yunfei shouted sternly. He pointed his right index finger in front of him and used the Water God Finger. A ball of dark blue Internal Force and true qi gathered at his fingertip and condensed into a compressed true force the size of a pill.
Swoosh!
His figure flashed and instantly appeared in front of Han Zhao. His fingertips pointed straight at the space between his eyebrows.
Han Zhao didn’t dodge. He looked at Shangguan Yunfei calmly and pointed at his glabella about two inches away.
As long as Shangguan Yunfei went another inch and a half, it would instantly activate the Connate Astral Qi in Han Zhao’s body.
At this distance, Han Zhao could take him by surprise and severely injure him.
However, he still had to get Shangguan Lie’s whereabouts from him.
Han Zhao resisted the good opportunity to attack.
“Why didn’t you dodge?” Shangguan Yunfei asked.
“Because I’m not afraid,” Han Zhao said.
“Why not?”
“I’m calm, so I’m not afraid. Moreover, Master spent so much effort to let me learn alchemy. It can’t be just a whim, right?”
“You’re quite honest.” Shangguan Yunfei relaxed. The Internal Force and true qi condensed at his fingertips instantly dissipated, and the aura around him dissipated. A faint smile appeared on his face, along with some admiration.
“This Water God Finger can only be grasped after comprehending the second basic diagram. This is the second visualization diagram of the Furious Flood Dragon True Technique.”
Shangguan Yunfei pointed at the Furious Flood Dragon Painting hanging on the wall behind him.
“Thank you, Master.” Han Zhao bowed slightly. His methods of using both kindness and power were not bad, but unfortunately, they were useless against him.
Shangguan Yunfei was very satisfied with his attitude. He changed the topic and said, “Do you remember what I said to you back then?”
Han Zhao pretended to think and recalled, “When I become a middle-grade alchemist, you have a huge opportunity to share with me.”
“That’s right.” Shangguan Yunfei nodded. “Rumor has it that the old leader and I got the flood dragon blood. Do you know about it?”
“I’ve heard of it,” Han Zhao replied.
“Then let me tell you now. It’s true,” Shangguan Yunfei said seriously.
“So it’s true!” Han Zhao’s eyes widened. “The flood dragon is a legendary spirit beast!”
“Do you know where the flood dragon that suddenly appeared to help the Furious Flood Dragon Gang in the battle with the pirates came from?
Shangguan Yunfei looked very secretive.
“Could it be that Master is saying…” Han Zhao was shocked. This time, he was not pretending.
“It’s precisely the Flood Dragon Transformation that I’ve refined the flood dragon blood and learned the strongest profound meaning of the Furious
Flood Dragon True Technique!’
Shangguan Yunfei put his hands behind his back.
‘ Han Zhao’s expression was a little strange. His face was tense, and the corners of his mouth rose and fell.
“As long as you refine the flood dragon blood, you can do it one day!” Shangguan Yunfei patted his shoulder.
“Thank you, Master!” Han Zhao’s tone was “excited”. He hurriedly bowed and lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.
“Alright, come with me now.” Shangguan Yunfei had a contemptuous smile in his eyes. No matter how talented you were or how smart you were, you couldn’t withstand the temptation of flood dragon blood.
Shangguan Yunfei turned around and walked toward the wall of the secret chamber. He kicked the bottom of the bed gently.
Crack! Crack!
The entire bed turned over, revealing the entrance to a tunnel.
Han Zhao’s expression changed slightly. The secret room in the secret room was indeed professional.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes. ”
After entering the secret passage, the two of them passed through a place similar to an underground karst cave.
In the end, he appeared in a cave on a cliff. Outside was an endless sea. The entrance of the cave was a thousand feet away from the top and bottom of the cliff.
Shangguan Yunfei twisted the oil lamp rack on the stone wall of the cave. The wall in front of him flipped over, revealing another secret room.
This secret room was less than ten square meters. In the middle was a coffin that looked like it was carved out of ice. A young man with white hair and a youthful face was lying inside.
Han Zhao followed Shangguan Yunfei into the room. The air seemed to be filled with static electricity, and his body was a little numb.
“This is the old Sect Master, Shangguan Lie. He’s also my father.” Shangguan Yunfei walked to the coffin and said, “He absorbed too much flood dragon blood in his body, so he’s unconscious now. If we want him to wake up, we have to release a portion of the flood dragon blood in his body.”
“However, doing that will waste the flood dragon blood’s power and greatly reduce his strength.”
“Therefore, I’ll take out a portion of the flood dragon blood in his body and give it to you to refine the Dragon Blood Pill. In this way, his strength won’t be damaged, and I can give you the extra Dragon Blood Pill.”
“Thank you, Master. I will definitely do my best!” Han Zhao said ‘excitedly’.
“It’s obvious.” Shangguan Yunfei touched the Sumeru Pouch at his waist, took out a pill formula, and handed it to Han Zhao.
At this moment, Han Zhao bowed and asked, “Master, I wonder if after I learn the contents of the second Furious Flood Dragon Visualization Painting, the subsequent cultivation technique…”
“Don’t worry about that. As long as you can refine the Dragon Blood Pill, I’ll teach you everything! One day, you’ll also learn the Flood Dragon Transformation!” Shangguan Yunfei patted the Sumeru Pouch.
“Thank you, Master!” Han Zhao took the pill formula with both hands. When he looked up, he suddenly pointed at the coffin behind Shangguan Yunfei in surprise.
“Master, the old Sect Master!”
“What?!” Shangguan Yunfei was shocked. He turned around abruptly and found Shangguan Lie sleeping peacefully in the coffin. He showed no signs of waking up.
Boom!!
Violent true qi and Internal Force erupted behind Shangguan Yunfei.
“Oh no!” Shangguan Yunfei’s expression changed drastically. The protective true qi on his body broke instantly, and a sharp pain came from his back.
Pfft!
A large golden hand pierced through his back and pinched his heart. Then, it pierced through his left chest.
“Han Zhao!! How dare you!” Shangguan Yunfei’s face twisted in pain. He was shocked and furious as he looked at Han Zhao, who was smiling beside him, in disbelief.
“You really have a lot of good things. They’re all mine now.” Han Zhao smiled faintly and circulated the Cultivation Absorption Technique with all his might.
“Ah!” Shangguan Yunfei suffered such a terrifying fatal injury, but he still didn’t die on the spot. His body struggled violently, but it was all in vain.
After a few breaths, the resistance became weaker and weaker. In the end, it completely stopped moving.
Five Elements Qi: Lung Metal (23%), Liver Wood (23%), Kidney Water (23%), Heart Fire (23%), Spleen Earth (23%)
Heart—Dragon Blood Sac (Blood Qi 100%)
Liver—Dragon Blood Sac (Blood Qi 15%)
Thump!
Shangguan Yunfei’s mummified body fell to the ground.
“Thank you for your hospitality.”
Han Zhao licked the corner of his mouth and revealed a satisfied smile..
