The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

After a while.

The Blood Bodhi energy within Lu Yao's body was completely exhausted, propelling Lu Yao's power forward by one step.

Blood Bodhi has the effect of enhancing one's martial arts skills and healing injuries. However, only the first one consumed will enhance one's martial arts skills; subsequent consumption will only heal injuries.

In the original story, after Nie Feng used the Blood Bodhi, not only were all his injuries fully healed, but his power was also greatly enhanced.

Of course, this is also because Nie Feng's cultivation level is not high, which makes the Blood Bodhi seem very miraculous.

When Lu Yao, a Grandmaster in the late stage, consumed the Blood Bodhi, it only increased his true qi power by a little over a hundred years, and the improvement was not very significant.

In the later stages of the Grandmaster realm, true qi power becomes both important and unimportant. The more years one has accumulated true qi, the more profound and enduring it becomes, giving one a certain advantage when fighting against martial artists of the same realm.

However, masters in the later stages of the Grandmaster level usually have their own signature martial arts, and the strength of the martial arts they learn is more important than the thickness and duration of their internal energy.

The Blood Bodhi had little effect on Lu Yao's improvement, but the Dao was extremely important for martial artists at the Innate Realm.

According to Lu Yao's guess, the energy in this Blood Bodhi is very useful for breaking through realms.

If a martial artist in the late stage of the Innate Realm takes the Blood Bodhi, there is a very high probability that they can advance to the Grandmaster Realm. This is definitely a rare treasure.

Lu Yao looked at the Blood Bodhi vine in front of him, which had about twenty or so vines. He simply waved his hand and uprooted the entire Blood Bodhi vine, then transplanted it into his Origin Space.

After all, with this precious Blood Bodhi plant, the Blood Bodhi becomes a sustainable resource.

After putting away the Blood Bodhi Vine, Lu Yao continued to examine the stone cave.

He remembered that the Six Secrets of Aohan left by Nie Renwang were here.

Nie Renwang was able to gain the reputation of "Northern Drinking Mad Saber" in the martial arts world, and the Six Secrets of Aohan played an indispensable role in this.

However, after Nie Renwang retired from the martial arts world, his strength declined, but he was still able to fight Xiong Ba to a standstill with the Snow Drinking Blade.

In the end, he died in Lingyun Cave because of the encounter with the Fire Qilin, leaving behind the complete version of the Six Secrets of Aohan.

Soon, Lu Yao saw the Six Secrets of Aohan carved by Nie Renwang in a secluded stone cave.

However, Lu Yao did not see Nie Renwang's remains, nor did he find the Snow Drinking Blade. It is likely that Nie Renwang knew he could not escape death, so he left behind the Six Secrets of Aohan.

After reading it once and memorizing it, Lu Yao swung his sword energy and destroyed the Six Secrets of Aohan on the stone wall.

"Senior Nie, rest assured, I will ensure that your son carries on and develops your skills."

Lu Yao looked at the stone wall covered with sword marks and said softly.

Although Nie Renwang was killed by the Fire Qilin, in the end it was because of Xiong Ba.

Furthermore, since Po Jun has already been killed by Lu Yao, Yan Ying is most likely dead as well. When Nie Feng learns the truth, he will naturally turn against Xiong Ba.

Lu Yao continued to explore the stone passage, following the scorching heat in the air.

There were occasional forks in the road, but none of them had that scorching aura, so they were definitely not where the Fire Qilin was.

The Fire Qilin guards the Yellow Emperor's tomb inside Lingyun Cave, so as long as you follow this scorching aura, you can find the Fire Qilin and the treasures inside Lingyun Cave.

It is highly likely that Nie Renwang got lost in these side paths, and it was Xueyindao that found Nie Feng on its own. Divine weapons have spirits, so it is likely that Nie Renwang is dead, otherwise his weapon would not have left its master on its own.

Half an hour later.

Lu Yao was slowly making his way along the stone path.

Suddenly, the scorching heat in the air began to stir, and the temperature in the stone passage began to rise rapidly.

Lu Yao immediately stopped, realizing that the Fire Qilin had discovered him.

As Lingyun Cave is the territory of the Fire Qilin, it's impossible for the Fire Qilin not to detect any unfamiliar presence entering it; it's just a matter of time.

In just a few breaths, the Fire Qilin finally appeared in front of Lu Yao.

The fire qilin was covered in crimson scales, each scale resembling a burning flame and radiating a dazzling light.

Its eyes were like two raging flames, filled with wildness and anger. Its limbs were thick and powerful, and its claws were deeply embedded in the ground. Every movement left a deep mark on the hard rock.

The fire qilin, its eyes burning with savage fury, roared as it charged directly at Lu Yao, staring at the stranger who had intruded.

"Is this the Fire Qilin?"

Although I was somewhat prepared, I was still shocked by the terrifying flames emanating from the Qilin before me.

This fire qilin looks nothing like an auspicious beast; it's more like a demonic creature.

Without giving it much thought, Lu Yao immediately used the Radiant Thunder Sword Technique. He understood that only Saint-level power could kill the Fire Qilin; Grandmasters were no match for it and might not even be able to break its scales.

"Radiant Thunder Sword Qi!"

Lu Yao shouted in his heart, and a terrifying golden lightning bolt appeared in the stone path, radiating an astonishing sword aura.

"Zizzizi!"

Countless golden lightning bolts coalesced into a golden sword aura, with wisps of lightning flickering within it.

The fire qilin, which was pouncing forward, saw the suddenly appearing golden sword energy, and a hint of human panic suddenly appeared in its violent pupils.

The fire qilin's forelimbs straightened instantly, leaving two deep marks on the ground.

However, Lu Yao wouldn't let the Fire Qilin escape. This Radiant Thunder Sword Qi had used half of his true energy. If he couldn't kill the Fire Qilin, Lu Yao would have to turn around and run away.

Under Lu Yao's control, the Radiant Thunder Sword Qi transformed into a golden bolt of lightning that shot towards the Fire Qilin with lightning speed.

"boom!"

Before the fire qilin could react, the Radiant Thunder Sword Qi pierced its head, easily piercing its scales as easily as tofu.

"Zizzizi!"

A terrifying golden lightning bolt exploded in the Fire Qilin's brain, causing it to roar madly in pain and struggle incessantly within the stone passage.

As the fire qilin struggled, its blood was sprayed everywhere. Knowing the demonic nature of the qilin blood, Lu Yao used his protective true qi to block all the blood from entering.

When the Qilin blood came into contact with the protective true energy, it emitted a corrosive sound and even produced wisps of smoke, demonstrating its strong aggressiveness.

Half an hour later.

The fire qilin finally stopped struggling and collapsed to the ground, its flames gradually dying down, revealing its true form.

"call!"

Lu Yao let out a soft breath; the fire qilin was finally dead.

Clearly, the Fire Qilin's strength is above the Grandmaster level but below the Saint level, so it naturally cannot withstand an attack from a Saint level opponent.

Lu Yao arrived in front of the Fire Qilin's corpse. Thinking that the Fire Qilin was full of treasures, he couldn't help but feel excited, especially the Fire Qilin's essence, which was definitely a great treasure.

The scales of the fire qilin can be made into armor, and its head, horns, and claws can be used as materials for forging weapons, so there is absolutely no possibility of waste.
