Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1063: Three Rewards

[You obtained the Stellar Shell Amulet.]

[You obtained the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus.]

[You obtained the Crimson Yang Flower.]

Zhang Fei momentarily raised an eyebrow. ’Show their description, Mei.’

[Yes, Master.]

===

[The Stellar Shell Amulet: A passive artifact that absorbs one full fatal strike, it will shatter afterward and must be recharged under starlight. Limit: once per month.]

[The Nine Nether Spirit Lotus: The Nine Nether Spirit Lotus once bloomed from the blood of a fallen Demon God betrayed by his race. Legend says the lotus carries his wrath, grudge, and resentment, granting unspeakable power to those willing to abandon light and walk the path of forbidden transcendence. Grade: Unknown.]

[The Crimson Yang Flower: A blazing flower with ten crimson petals, each edged with molten gold. According to the legend, it radiates intense yang Qi and contains a single drop of liquid flame known as the True Yang Liquid. Limit: one-time use. Effect: Boost a male Yang Qi for a long period. Downside: The ’flame’ is difficult to extinguish, and the man will burn to death if it is not extinguished.]

===

Zhang Fei immediately took the first item, which was a shell sparkling like a star. He observed it for a moment before putting it back into the inventory, and he took out the third item. ’The ’flame’ is no different from lust, right? How long is a long period? Days? Months? Or years?’

[Master, your wedding with Luo Yunxiao is in a month, so I think you should wait until then to consume this flower. This way, she will benefit too, and you can use that time to take the virginity of those who have reached the Seven Divine Realms.]

Zhang Fei himself had planned to take their virginity after his second clone arrived in the Paradise Realm, but he was busy with Luo Yunxiao and his breakthrough. Since everything was done, he intended to do so with those who had already broken through to the Seven Divine Realms, such as Xian Xianqin, Zhou Shenxin, Ling Long, Shang Yaolin, Shang Yumei, and several others, while also helping his other women.

Zhang Fei returned the flower to the inventory, but he was a little hesitant to take the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus, especially since it contained a fallen demon god’s wrath, grudge, and resentment. However, he was also curious about it, and he suspected that the fallen demon god came from the Nine Nether Demon Race, mainly because of the name of the item.

Zhang Fei decided to ask Nalan Yushu, who lives in his tiny soul world. ’Do you know anything about the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus? Has there ever been a demon god from the Nine Nether Demon Race who has fallen?’

’Master, I don’t know anything about the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus, but I’ve heard of a fallen demon god from that demon race. The fallen demon god was Jiu Mozu, and he was their leader from three generations above their current leader. According to legend, he was the strongest demon god ever born in the Nine Nether Demon Race, and his past strength was equivalent to the Celestial Demon God. I don’t know what really happened to his era or how he died, but rumors have been circulating for a long time that his race betrayed him, and only the demons of that race know the cause.’ Zhang Fei fell into deep thought after Nalan Yushu said all that. ’Why are you suddenly asking about that, Master?’

Zhang Fei decided to take out the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus, but a black thread of light immediately shot out from his chest, followed by nine more black threads of light that shot out from nine different rooms, all of which aimed at the black lotus in his hand.

Janette, Balena, Ilsath, Orith, Ursula, Yan Zhixiu, Angela, Eve, and Fyr immediately ran out of their room. They immediately approached Zhang Fei, especially since the black threads of light on their chests drew them to the Nine Nether Spirit Lotus.

”What’s wrong with this lotus, husband? Why do the demon seeds in our bodies react to it?” Angela asked.

Ursula squatted beside the lotus and touched it. ”There is wrath, grudge, and resentment within this lotus, which attracts the attention of our demon seeds. Can you guys feel it? Our demon lotus is starting to absorb them from it.”

”That’s true.” Janette responded while nodding, as she felt the same way. However, she couldn’t feel any wrath, grudge, or resentment. Instead, she felt pure, powerful demon power flowing into her body, which slowly increased her demon power.

Balena then spoke. ”These feelings give me a strange comfort.”

”Me too.” Ilsath and Orith nodded in agreement. ”Where did you get this lotus?”

As always, Zhang Fei chose not to tell them anything, especially since he wasn’t ready to tell them about the system, making them sigh softly.

”Hey, Fei! We’ve become you and your clones’ wives, but you’re still being secretive with us.” Fyr, the dark elf, complained.

Eve, the blood-sucking demon, nodded slightly. ”Fei, please share the truth with us.”

”One day, I will reveal everything to you, so please be patient until that time, okay?” Angela and the others sighed helplessly in response to Zhang Fei, and they immediately sat around the lotus while holding hands, speeding up the absorption of the demon seeds within their bodies. ”I don’t know how long it will take or what will happen after we absorb the lotus’s negative feelings, but we can’t let our guard down, even though we don’t feel anything now. Otherwise, it will be a problem if they affect us.”

”Yes.”

Everyone else closed their eyes and focused, but Zhang Fei kept his eyes open and thought about the lotus. ’This is different from what I thought before, and I didn’t expect the ten demon seeds to react to this lotus. Moreover, they are absorbing the power within it equally, so their demon power will also increase after this.’

[Master, this lotus contains the ancient power of the Nine Nether Demon God, and it is too powerful for you in your current state. Perhaps this lotus will pave the way for you to break through to the advanced demon ranks, and if my guess is correct, your demon rank will immediately break through to the Demon Monarch Rank, and your demon power will increase significantly.]

Zhang Fei recalled his conversation with the late Primordial Demon in the era of the beginning about two and a half years ago. ’I think your guess is wrong, Mei. Back then, the primordial demon told me that I needed several items for my demon rank to break through to the advanced demon ranks, and he also shared the names of those items; however, this lotus was not among them. Therefore, this lotus can’t possibly help me find it, and I have to look for those items first.’

[Unfortunately, your cultivation is still at the 1-Moon Divine Expansion Realm, so you can’t go looking for them now, Master. Instead of worrying about those items, you should enter seclusion for a few years after your marriage to Luo Yunxiao. Once your cultivation breaks through to the Five Celestial Realms, you can travel freely in this realm, and you can look for them at that time.]

’Didn’t I already plan that? Otherwise, we wouldn’t be here and doing this, right? I do have ambitions to become strong, but I know which priorities are more important.’ Zhang Fei suddenly remembered something. ’I think I should go to Uncle Luo and Aunt Huang to ask if there’s a better place than the Life Pond in their domain, and I will move Zhang Xiaolong [3] from the Sovereign Heaven Realm to this realm.’

[Unfortunately, I haven’t detected any such place in the Empyrean Domain, Master. However, you can try asking them, and who knows, they might know of such a place in another domain.]

’Yeah, you’re right.’

Mei then reminded him of something. [Master, it’s been more than three months since Gu Changsheng created the Heart Gu, so he’s probably finished creating it by now.]

’Oh! That’s right! I’ll go see him now.’

.

Zhang Xiaolong [3], who was cultivating at the bottom of the life pond, immediately opened his eyes. After drying his body and getting dressed, he hurriedly left the place, but he didn’t go straight to the main city; instead, he checked the progress of the natural races, who were trained under Jin Zhongli’s guidance.

Two months had passed since they began their training, but their progress was too slow. Only a few of them could move slightly under the pressure of heavier gravity, such as Qian Chaoying, Ju Xing, and several others. Moreover, Jin Zhongli had not used all his abilities, and he had only increased his gravity by several times.

After that, Zhang Xiaolong [3] went to the Gu Clan to see Gu Changsheng, but the old man had not completed the Gu Heart, mainly because of the battle back then.

Gu Changsheng told Zhang Xiaolong [3] that the Gu Heart would be completed in a month or less, and he also told him about Tian Jingxuan and the others.

However, Zhang Xiaolong [3] already knew that the three old men did nothing after Tian Kui and Serpentera repeatedly thwarted their plans, and they had also told him about their plans regarding the two heavenly foxes, who were still struggling with their Dao test.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] then gave several teleportation portals to Gu Changsheng, and he asked the old man to send several members of his clan to realms that had not been visited by Feng Xishui to open his shop. Following this, he departed from the Gu Clan and went to a different location.

”How do you feel after transforming your divine Qi into Celestial Qi?” Serpentera asked Zhang Xiaolong [3] a question immediately after he appeared before him and Tian Kui.

”Amazing!” Zhang Xiaolong [3] clenched his fists. ”At first, I didn’t feel any impact on my cultivation, but it felt much more amazing after I broke through to the 1-Moon Divine Expansion Realm, and my cultivation should be able to improve even faster if I continue cultivating using it.”

”Hahaha.” Tian Kui laughed at that. ”Kid, you don’t need to worry about matters in these Three Mortal Realms, and we’ll take care of everything for you. Once you break through to the Five Celestial Realms, we’ll return to the Paradise Realm, and we’ll go on an adventure together there.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded at him. ”Honestly, I myself want to immediately go on an adventure in the Paradise Realm, especially since I need those five items to break through to the advanced demon ranks and become a demon monarch.”

”You can find one here, right? The Abyssal Demon Heart, right?”

”Yes.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] sighed softly. ”I’ve been waiting for the Abyssal Demon Heart to appear in the Wasteland Realm for a long time, but it still hasn’t appeared yet, and it looks like I’ll have to wait a few more years. I want to find one in the Paradise Realm, and I already have its location, but I have not dared to go there, especially since it’s in the Calamity Domain. The other four are the Infernal Blood Core, the Demon Essence Drop, the Demon Soul Elixir, and the Demon Ritual Sigil.”

Tian Kui nodded in response. ”That shouldn’t be difficult for you, right? You have Nalan Yushu by your side, and even though she’s only her soul now, she can still contact her demon race members. If she can contact them and ask them to search for those items, your demon rank could break through to the advanced ranks like ours sooner.”

”You are too stupid, Old Kui! Nalan Yushu didn’t die without a reason, and that person even deliberately locked her soul in the Star Tower. If she comes out now, that person will definitely find out about her return, and that person will attack this kid.” Serpentera then informed Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”Actually, you don’t need to go to their domain to look for those items, and you can try looking for them on the black market.”

”Black market?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] raised an eyebrow.

”Yes.” Serpentera nodded. ”Not only ordinary humans have black markets, but cultivators also have them, especially since many heretics move in secret. I don’t know their current locations because Old Kui and I have been in the realm for too long, and there should have been many changes in the realm since then. Since you’re in the Paradise Realm now, you can ask some of your acquaintances there. However, you must be extremely careful and don’t reveal your demon form or darkness element there, or the people of the winged race will hunt you down.”

”Winged race, huh?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] remembered Tian Huangjin. ”Why didn’t Tian Huangjin take any action against me, despite knowing that I was a demon?

Serpentera could only shake his head. ”By the way, you can’t use jewels there, and you have to use demon cores to make transactions there, especially since the items there are related to demons.”

”I see.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding. ”Okay then, I’ll look for information on those black markets, but I won’t search for them now. I’ll do so after I exit my isolation in a month.”

”Only a month? Why don’t you go into seclusion for years at a time?”

”Hehe.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] chuckled. ”I will marry my childhood lover in a month, so I have to stop my seclusion temporarily, and I will continue after that.”

After that, Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately disappeared from the sight of the two ancient beasts; however, he did not return to the eastern forest right away and instead went elsewhere.

Tian Kui shook his head to himself. ”That kid! He just arrived in the Paradise Realm, but he’s already found a new woman there!”

Tian Kui shook his head to himself. ”That kid! He just arrived in the Paradise Realm, but he’s already found a new woman there!”

”Didn’t you hear him just now? He’s going to marry his childhood friend, so they should have known each other for a long time, but I wonder how the two of them met in the past.” Serpentera then looked towards the location of the Dao test. ”That female fox has already completed several stages, and she will probably finish soon. However, that male fox is quite stupid, and his progress is still stagnant.”

”Just let them be because their fate is already sealed, and they will bear the consequences once they leave that place.” Serpentera nodded in agreement with Tian Kui.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaolong [3] had arrived at the Sima Clan, but all the remaining clan members immediately avoided him, especially since he played a key role in the deaths of many of their clan members.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] showed no concern for them and went successfully to meet Sima Huiqing in the garden in front of her room.

Sima Huiqing was surprised by the arrival of Zhang Xiaolong [3], especially since he had not come to see him after the fight more than two months ago. ”Why are you here, Master?”

”Follow me.” Sima Huiqing followed Zhang Xiaolong [3] into her bedroom in confusion, but his next order shocked her. ”Strip.”

”Huh?” Sima Huiqing froze for a moment, but her hands moved on their own to remove her dress. ’Sigh! He is my master, and I cannot refuse his order because of his slave mark.’

Soon, Sima Huiqing was completely naked, and she approached Zhang Xiaolong [3], who was already sitting on her bed, and helped him remove his clothes, causing her to gasp as soon as he was naked. ”What should I do now, Master?”

”Your body is impressive, despite your age.” Zhang Xialong [3] pulled Sima Huiqing onto the bed, but he didn’t do anything to her. Instead, he imparted a method to convert the Divine Qi into the Celestial Qi. ”Learn it first, and I’ll help you after.”

”Yes, Master.” Sima Huiqing immediately closed her eyes and read the method, but she was confused about the Celestial Qi. She decided to read and study it first, and she would ask Zhang Xiaolong [3] about it afterward.
