Started out getting scumbags, but then invested in the invincible Empress.

Chapter 101 Sacred Body Phenomenon: Pure Yang Piercing the Sun

"can."

After a moment's thought, Li Wudao decided to make the deal.

His own blood and energy were already extremely vigorous, and with the powerful life force restored by the Vermilion Bird Treasure Bone, a hundred drops of blood were nothing but a drop in the ocean, and he could replenish his strength in no time.

"boom!"

The green-haired turtle summoned a golden coffin and placed it on the ground.

"What are you standing there for? Come in."

Seeing the boy stunned, it immediately revealed a disdainful look, "Are you stupid, kid? The moment the holy blood left your body, it was absorbed by the forbidden power. How could it possibly end up in my hands?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wudao suddenly realized what was happening and awkwardly crawled into the coffin.

To his surprise, the golden coffin, though small in appearance, contained a hidden world inside, a truly wondrous place.

"Brother Turtle, what grade of treasure is this golden coffin?"

Li Wudao stroked his chin, looking at the magnificent palace he was in, feeling an irresistible urge to enter.

This is absolutely a treasure!

"Don't try to get close to me, kid!"

The green-haired tortoise glanced at him sideways, then abruptly changed the subject, grumbling, "Hurry up and hand over a hundred drops of pure yang blood."

Seeing that his thoughts had been exposed, Li Wudao pursed his lips, pricked his finger, and dripped the blood into a jade bottle.

"Kid, give it to me now."

The green-haired turtle's eyes lit up, and it eagerly bit the bottle, tilting its head back to drink.

"Cool!"

It stretched out its dark neck, licked its lips with lingering satisfaction, and its aura grew stronger.

Seeing this scene, Li Wudao felt a sense of unease.

He thought it was for making medicine or something, but he didn't expect the green-haired turtle to drink it directly, which gave him goosebumps.

"Let's go, let's get down the mountain as soon as possible."

After consuming the pure yang blood, the green-haired turtle looked radiant, its eyes even brightening.

The next instant, Li Wudao felt a flash before his eyes and was directly transported to the outside world.

I had only taken a few steps when a system notification sounded quietly.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, your investment has been successful. Investment method: 100 drops of Pure Yang Holy Blood]

[Investment target detected to have divine beast bloodline, triggering a critical reward]

[Rewards being claimed...]

[Congratulations, host, on receiving a special rebate: Pure Yang Piercing the Sun]

【Pure Yang Piercing the Sun: A Sacred Body Phenomenon. When activated, it brings a thousand miles of crimson clouds and a blazing sun in the sky, doubling all attribute abilities.】

"what?!"

Li Wudao was stunned; this unexpected joy left him momentarily speechless.

He thought that the only investment targets were humans, never expecting that he could also invest in turtles, uh... to be precise, Xuanwu.

At that moment, the boy realized that his vision was still too narrow and that he should broaden his perspective.

He had a bold speculation in his mind: if the investment targets were not limited to humans, perhaps it would also be feasible to invest in other races such as demons and monsters.

If that's the case, wouldn't this whole world be his investment portfolio?!

This also means that, as long as he has enough power, his network of connections will extend to the entire Primordial Continent in the future!

In an even more ideal scenario, perhaps in the future he won't even need to take action himself; he can simply raise his arm and call upon countless "students" to handle things for him.

Thinking of this, Li Wudao couldn't help but feel a surge of pride. If that day truly came, how glorious it would be...

Should we merge with the vision now?

"Fusion!"

The system voice brought him back to reality, and he felt a little excited.

The communion vision sounds pretty impressive.

next moment,

Li Wudao suddenly felt his body heat up, every bone and skin trembling slightly, as if he had undergone some kind of baptism. His whole body felt warm, and the intensity of his blood and qi rose several levels, even more intense than magma.

"Hey kid, don't you suddenly feel really hot?"

Suddenly, the green-haired turtle walking in front asked in surprise.

"Really?" Li Wudao asked nonchalantly.

"No? Why does this ground feel a bit hot to the touch?"

The green-haired turtle looked around with suspicion and confusion, its expression changing slightly.

Just moments ago, the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, but now a strange change has occurred. Endless red clouds reflect in the high sky, stretching for thousands of miles, dazzling and magnificent.

Amidst that rosy glow, a massive red sun, the size of a millstone, hung high in the sky, blazing and dazzling, emanating waves of heat that bathed the earth in crimson light.

"Strange, why is the sun so bright today?"

The green-haired turtle muttered in bewilderment, then suddenly saw something that made its pupils shrink. "Wait, these are... two suns?!"

At this moment, besides the blazing sun overhead, there is also a lingering sunset in the west.

Two suns shone in the sky at the same time, their radiance echoing each other, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake!

"How can this be?!"

The green-haired turtle was horrified, shaking its head in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice, "Kid, you didn't do this, did you?"

"The bag isn't me."

"Really?"

The green-haired turtle stared at him suspiciously, trying to figure something out.

"It's really not true."

Li Wudao was also startled by this strange phenomenon, but seeing the other party's panicked appearance, he immediately felt a sense of mockery and denied it in a serious manner.

"This is weird... This place is getting weirder and weirder, let's get out of here!"

The green-haired turtle shrank its neck, feeling a chill in its heart, and ran down the mountain as fast as it could.

"Haha, you've finally met your match."

Seeing it stunned and frightened, Li Wudao couldn't help but laugh.

An hour later.

The scenery below the mountain came into view, and it was another three miles to leave Burial Dragon Mountain.

However, the sky, which was already dusk, suddenly darkened without warning within a few breaths, becoming pitch black.

At the same time, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and an endless chill swept over us, as if winter had arrived.

"Oh no, it's getting dark!"

The green-haired turtle stopped, its expression somewhat grave.

"Why don't you leave?"

Li Wudao was trying to find out something when a sudden and unexpected change occurred.

"Squeak-"

A rustling sound came from afar, like the sound of mice grinding their teeth, sharp and piercing, coming from all directions, making one's scalp tingle.

Immediately, thousands of blood-red eyes lit up in the night, eerily close and closer.

"Oh no, we think we're surrounded..."

Li Wudao's face was pale, and under the reflection of his double pupils, he saw a series of enormous rats.

These rats were as big as large cats, with sharp claws and teeth, and their fur was like armor, shiny and gray. Their aura was at least at the Grandmaster level!

"Rat, so many big rats!"

He was horrified and speechless, feeling a chill run down his spine.

These rats are too strange, completely abnormal. With such a large number, even a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm would have difficulty surviving.

"Let's use an advanced coffin to hide."

The green-haired tortoise spoke solemnly, and without hesitation, immediately summoned the golden coffin.

Just moments after the man and the tortoise hid inside the coffin.

Thousands of eerie rats swarmed in, as if they hadn't eaten for a year, instantly surrounding the golden coffin in layers, so thick that not even an ant could get out.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the golden coffin resounded with a deafening crash, the force of which was immense, causing it to shake violently, swaying from side to side like a ball.

Fortunately, the coffin, carved with magnificent landscapes, was extraordinary, and the densely packed demon rats could do nothing about it, only able to let out angry hissing.

Fifteen minutes later, the noise outside gradually subsided.

"it's over?"

Li Wudao breathed a sigh of relief. If these strange rats hadn't left, he really wouldn't have known what to do.

"Wait a bit before you go out."

The green-haired turtle's expression remained serious; it dared not be careless.

Upon hearing this, Li Wudao felt a slight chill and quietly waited.

After these events, he discovered that the green-haired turtle always seemed to have foresight and was extremely knowledgeable about this forbidden area.

Sure enough, after an incense stick had burned, another strange change occurred!

The peaceful night was suddenly swept by a blood-red gust of wind, which enveloped the land in just a few breaths.

These winds were equally strange, like blades formed from congealed blood, exceptionally sharp, piercing through everything in their path.

"Keng! Keng!"

The crimson wind blades struck the golden coffin, creating a clanging sound like metal clashing, and the coffin trembled violently.

Even inside the coffin, Li Wudao could clearly feel the intense vibrations and almost lost his footing.

"What is this thing?"

He felt a chill run down his spine and a sense of lingering fear.

Honestly, if he hadn't been hiding in the golden coffin, he would already be a corpse by now.

"This is a blood storm that appears unpredictably deep within the forbidden zone. Its power is unfathomable, and even a Holy Lord would have to retreat from it."

The green-haired turtle spoke in a somber tone, clearly not optimistic.

If such evil dangers have already descended, it's hard to say whether we might encounter something even more terrifying.
