Chapter 59 Methods to Break Through to the Sixth Tier
When Chu Han had completely absorbed the black primordial energy within his body, he instantly felt himself become a bit stronger once again.
Thus, he continued to help Luo Yue absorb the black primordial energy from her wound.
To his surprise, Luo Yue was very cooperative this time.
Soon, he had drawn a significant amount of black primordial energy into his own body again.
He continued to Cultivate to absorb this black primordial energy, repeating the process over and over.
By the time late night arrived, the black primordial energy on Luo Yue's body had been completely absorbed by him.
Chu Han's gains this time were not small; his physical abilities had received another significant boost.
Luo Yue moved her body slightly and was also somewhat surprised.
She discovered that the black primordial energy inside her had completely vanished, with only a slight dull ache remaining at the wound on her chest.
But this bit of external injury was nothing to her.
She sat cross-legged and began to circulate her Cultivation Technique. Instantly, her body was enveloped in a red flame, and even Chu Han felt a surge of intense heat.
Probing with his Mental Energy, Chu Han discovered that Luo Yue's external injuries were recovering at a terrifying speed, several times faster than his Nine Heavens Body Forging Art's healing method.
"What Cultivation Technique is she practicing? Or is it because of her talent?"
Chu Han was quite shocked in his heart.
This woman was indeed not simple.
As the aura on Luo Yue's body rapidly recovered and grew stronger, it reached the limit of a 5th-rank Martial Artist.
"What a terrifying woman."
Chu Han was shocked by her cultivation level.
The woman before him was only a year or two older than him, yet her strength had already reached the limit of a 5th-rank Martial Artist.
Chu Han had never heard of such a terrifying cultivation speed; even the Genius sister Zhao Feiyu spoke of was only a Fourth-Tier Martial Artist.
But the woman before him was clearly a Genius even greater than Zhao Feifei.
However, Chu Han was more interested in her talent.
If he could confirm that her talent Rank was very high, he could copy it.
Theoretically, this woman's talent was definitely not simple.
But Chu Han needed more concrete information.
At this moment, the aura on Luo Yue's body gradually stabilized, and even her temperament underwent a change.
When she was injured, she had a bit of a small woman's frailty, but now she was full of cold elegance and pride.
She looked at Chu Han and said in a sincere tone, "Thank you so much for helping me heal this time. I am Luo Yue, from Kyoto Martial Arts University. May I know your name?"
"Chu Han," Chu Han replied.
He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are you the expert sent by Capital Martial Arts University who was in the vicinity?"
Chu Han took out his communicator and found the contact information Li Yunjian had given him.
Luo Yue took a look and nodded. "That is my communication number, but there is no signal here, so you couldn't reach me."
"So that's how it is. It seems my luck is good to have met you here. But as for the Black Crow Leader's side, how should we deal with him?" Chu Han's tone couldn't help but become solemn when mentioning the Black Crow Leader.
Both he and Luo Yue had suffered greatly at the hands of the Black Crow Leader and nearly lost their lives. If they just went back to kill him, even with their combined strength, they probably still wouldn't be able to defeat him.
Luo Yue's face was calm as she said indifferently, "After taking the dark blood potion, his strength can reach the 6th Tier, and he can regenerate at high speeds. Even with the two of us combined, we are no match for him, so we must increase our strength."
"Increase our strength?" Chu Han looked puzzled. "Do you have a way to quickly increase strength?"
Luo Yue nodded, her tone carrying a bit of certainty. "I originally planned to Breakthrough to the 6th Tier in the Black Stone Mountain Range, but my plan was interrupted by the school's rescue request. As long as I can advance, I have full confidence in killing the Black Crow Leader!"
"It seems you already have a way to Breakthrough to the 6th Tier." Chu Han was delighted.
If Luo Yue had found a way to Breakthrough, perhaps it would be an Opportunity for him as well.
"I came to the Black Stone Mountain Range this time because I heard that phoenix blood vermilion fruits exist here. After I arrived, I indeed found a phoenix blood grass in an underground lava area. I just hadn't had the chance to retrieve it before I received the school's rescue mission and had to temporarily change my plans to go to the rescue."
"phoenix blood vermilion fruit? A Spirit Fruit?" This was the first time Chu Han had heard this name.
"That is a 6th Tier fire attribute Spirit Fruit. It carries a trace of phoenix blood characteristics and contains a massive amount of fire attribute essence. It is a divine medicine dreamed of by fire attribute Martial Artists," Luo Yue explained.
"I am of the fire attribute myself. As long as I consume one, I can directly break through the shackles of the 5th-Rank and advance to the 6th Tier! Moreover, that phoenix blood grass has two fruits growing on it! If you help me obtain one, the other will be yours."
Hearing this, Chu Han's heart skipped a beat.
The Flame Swallowing Art he cultivated and his Lava Crystal Armor talent both belonged to the fire attribute.
If he could obtain a phoenix blood vermilion fruit, it would definitely take his strength to the next level, and perhaps he could even Breakthrough to a 1st Tier Martial Artist in one go.
But he quickly calmed down. If it were really as simple as Luo Yue said, she should have already obtained the two fruits; yet now she needed his help.
He asked, "A Spirit Medicine this precious must be guarded by exotic beasts, right?"
Luo Yue's expression became a bit more solemn. "Indeed, the vermilion fruits are guarded by a group of Vermilion Toads. The strongest one is 6th Tier, and the rest are 5th, 4th, and 3rd Tier. I tested them once before; I can barely deal with one 6th Tier, but I was overwhelmed when faced with a group attack."
"One 6th Tier exotic beast, plus a large number of 5th, 4th, and 3rd Tiers... that's almost like storming the Black Crow Organization's lair," Chu Han murmured.
However, he had turned the Black Crow Organization's lair upside down by himself, so naturally, he wouldn't be afraid of a group of toads.
Chu Han immediately made a decision. "I'll help you. We'll join forces and kill all those toads!"
"Mm, let's set out now."
Luo Yue was also delighted in her heart.
"Follow me."
Immediately, two figures, one black and one white, rapidly left the riverside and headed toward the location of the phoenix blood vermilion fruits.
They first spent an hour reaching the top of the cliff, then Chu Han followed Luo Yue through the Black Stone Mountain Range for another hour before finally arriving at a grotto.
The two entered the grotto and headed all the way down. The surrounding temperature gradually rose, the air became hot and dry, and the black stones on the ground changed from deep gray to dark red.
Soon, the two entered an underground world filled with rivers of lava.
The temperature here was extremely high, and even the air was slightly distorted.
"It's just ahead!"
Luo Yue pointed forward.
Chu Han looked in the direction of Luo Yue's finger. At the end of the lava river, there was a massive lava lake.
The two continued forward and arrived at the shore of the lava lake.
Chu Han immediately saw a blood-red plant growing in the central area of the lava lake, along with the two red fruits growing on it.
"So these are the phoenix blood vermilion fruits!"
Chu Han's eyes were fixed intently on the two fruits, his gaze full of desire.
At this time, Luo Yue warned, "Those Vermilion Toads are all hidden beneath the lava. As soon as you enter within a hundred meters of the phoenix blood vermilion fruits, they will appear and launch an attack on you."
She picked up a stone from the ground and threw it toward the vicinity of the phoenix blood vermilion fruits.
With a "thud," the stone fell into the lava, splashing a string of sparks.
The next moment, the lava bubbled, and a group of toads, entirely crimson with skin covered in protruding poison sacs, immediately leaped out.
"Ribbit!"
One of the toads opened its mouth and let out a loud cry, then suddenly spat a mouthful of saliva toward Chu Han and Luo Yue.
The two dodged, and the saliva landed on the ground behind them, instantly bursting into flames and burning a large pit.
"They're indeed not easy to deal with."
Chu Han didn't dare to be careless, and a laser gun appeared in his hand.
"Leave those below the 6th Tier to me."
