Gordaf is indeed the ruler of the Pillars of Magma, but he cannot know at all what is happening throughout his pillars. If he had known Vann had fallen into the crater of the volcano where he had hidden the Vermilion Bird, he would not have sat idly here but had gone to kill Vann as quickly as possible.
Although Vann was so weak that it was almost impossible for him to release the Vermilion Bird, but Gordaf did not dare to risk letting Vann meet the Vermilion Bird Blood.
Moreover, Vermilion Bird Blood was given by his master to be guarded by Gordaf, if it disappeared then it is not strange that his master killed Gordaf directly. Compared to the holy-level weapon spirit, Gordaf who was only a small pillar ruler was not so important to the 9 main pillar holders.
So Gordaf, who was unaware of the strangeness in Vermilion Bird, immediately walked towards the lower floor where Vermilion Bird was imprisoned, he walked without the slightest panic but smiled happily because he still thought of Vermilion Bird giving up on his master and he got a big reward.
...----------------...
Kyuro who was eating black energy on the chain did not slow down at all, there were even signs that Kyuro's speed of purifying black energy was increasing.
Vann approaches Kyuro who is busy purifying "Kyuro, do you need my help? As the Vermilion Bird said, we should settle this as soon as possible. Although not necessarily the ruler of the Magma Pillar came here, but the sooner it is finished the better because there is a possibility of enemies coming to check".
Kyuro stared at Vann before jumping up and down again as he often did "Kyu!".
Although Vann cannot understand Kyuro's intentions, he still understands a little that Kyuro says Vann must drain his energy so that Kyuro is able to purify black energy faster.
Without wasting much more time, Vann stretched out his hand and gave all the energy he had just recovered from the fight against the Silver Flame Lizard.
As Vann's energy flows into Kyuro's body, something shocking happens.
Kyuro who was previously just a fist-sized water ball suddenly turned even wider to cover the entire body of the Vermilion Bird.
"What?", neither Vann nor Vermilion Bird were surprised at Kyuro's very strange changes.
But before Vann can ask Kyuro again, he finds all his energy is absorbed very quickly by Kyuro. Vann's new full energy instantly becomes almost empty again "Wait for Kyuro, if you take the energy this fast then I'll-".
Not waiting for Vann to finish his words, Vann felt his consciousness dissipate as a result of his depleted energy.
Fortunately Kyuro still understands that he must not absorb all of Vann's energy until it runs out, at least he must let Vann have a little energy or he will die.
Therefore, Kyuro did not absorb Vann's energy until it was completely depleted.
Looking at Vann who fell to the ground, Vermilion Bird cried out in panic because Vann was the one who tried to help him escape from the black chain "Son, what happened? Are you all right? Actually what kind of water-ball spirit is yours-".
The Vermilion Bird felt its consciousness also growing lost.
Before losing full consciousness, Vermilion Bird gazed towards Kyuro who was consuming black energy on the chain full of fear "Actually, what kind of monster are you?".
Finally the Vermilion Bird closed its eyes, losing consciousness like Vann. When anyone who knew a saint-level weapon spirit like the Vermilion Bird lost consciousness due to the water ball being too weak, they would definitely not believe it.
...----------------...
The Vermilion Bird that lost consciousness found itself in a black space that there was only darkness.
Slowly in the darkness, a light appeared. More precisely it was not a light but an event that played out like a movie, the Vermilion Bird now found his body unable to move in the slightest so that he could only watch this movie.
Not stopping there, the water ball that eats the hospital continues to spread and eat everything around it be it home or whatever.
Looking at the water ball that ate it all, Vermilion Bird was frightened because he was sure, as long as he fought the water ball then he must have eaten too which showed how scary the water ball was. In the end the Vermilion Bird had a chance of victory only if the master was the figure of the Emperor, the holder of the throne or the pillar to fight this water ball.
In the sky, dozens of people flew in the sky and joined forces to suppress the water ball monster from eating the city any further.
Although Vermilion Bird did not know the people in the sky at all, but he knew 1 thing that the group of people in the sky is very strong.
Among them, there were several Emperors as well as 2 people who had the equivalent strength of the main pillar holder sealing himself.
Under the pressure of dozens of the best human cultivators, the water ball was pressed back towards the hospital before disappearing completely as if it had never existed.
A man flew straight to the hospital room where the water ball disappeared, in the room Vermilion Bird found a woman sitting in the corner of the room full of fear.
The woman pointed towards the bed that was in the room while shouting "Monster! No way! How could I-I".
Before finishing everything that happened, Vermilion Bird felt his consciousness again disappear.
...----------------...
The moment Vermilion Bird opened his eyes again, he found the chains around him to be normal chains, no more black energy.
Then beside Vann, Kyuro jumped up and down and sat on Vann's head.
In the eyes of others, Kyuro might look very cute. But after seeing the incident just now, Kyuro's actions in the eyes of Vermilion Bird were terrifying.
He said doubtfully "Is the monster I saw just now you?".
"Kyu?", responding to Vermilion Bird's question, Kyuro simply tilted his head in confusion as if not understanding his words.
As Vermilion Bird was about to continue asking, the sound of footsteps approaching this direction sounded.
"Wine! The ruler of the Magma Pillar is coming, we must leave here!", Vermilion Bird said firmly.
He shattered the weak chains that were still on his body, then the entire figure of the Vermilion Bird was destroyed replaced by another red ball that flew in the middle of the room.
Different from the red ball that had a black color before, now the color of the red ball is no longer black but completely red like fire.
The red ball was none other than the Vermilion Bird Blood, part of the holy weapon spirit of the Vermilion Bird shard.
Vermilion Bird's voice rang out from the red ball that flew "Son, I owe you! You released me from the prison that always held me, so you could say I owe you my life. Therefore, I decided to choose you to be my master now! Don't disappoint me, you must become a great cultivator because you have gotten my help!".
The ball of blood flew towards Vann before disappearing, no change was seen in Vann's body but the surrounding temperature slowly became hot. Especially Vann's blood, now the blood all over Vann's body is undergoing a great change.
