9 THRONES

CHAPTER 87: SURPRISED

In Vann's body right now, some of his blood turned as red as fire. Not only that, traces of extremely strong hot temperatures could be felt on Vann's altered blood.

Even if Vann's blood became hot, his blood that changed did not injure him one bit or disturb the other's blood. Vann's changed blood moved in his body like any other normal blood, there was no difference except for his hot temperature.

After that, Vann's changed blood also moved swiftly towards the parts of Vann's body that were injured from the fight against the silver fire lizard. Vann did use medicine to heal his wounds, but the drug did not succeed in curing all his wounds but only partially.

But with the help of Vann's new blood, the wound healed completely as if it had never been injured. This was Vermilion Bird's famous regeneration ability, as long as Vann's strength grew stronger, it was not impossible for Vann to stay alive despite losing his head.

Vann's regenerative abilities become extremely powerful, but he can still die. However even the original Vermilion Bird could be killed by others, let alone Vann who only gained a portion of the Vermilion Bird's blood power and regeneration.

Vann who lost his consciousness slowly opened his eyes again, he looked towards the left and right full of confusion "Where am I? Wait a minute, if I'm not mistaken, I was trying to release the Vermilion Bird from the chain that sealed itself then-".

"Son, forget about the matter" the voice of Vermilion Bird echoed in Vann's head which made him very surprised.

Looking at the surprised Vann, Vermilion Bird explained as quickly as possible "There is no need to put on such a face, I owe you so much. Besides, it seems that following you isn't too bad. Even if you don't have great talent like you said, at least you have a spirit that makes you not give up easily. Therefore, I decided to become your spirit from now on! But I guess now is not the time to discuss this matter, we should run away now!".

"Running away?" said Vann confused, after all he just woke up from a loss of consciousness that made him not understand what happened.

But Vann immediately heard the sound of footsteps getting closer to the room where they were, Vann's face changed "Did the ruler of the Magma Pillar come?".

"You're right, with your strength then you're not at all his opponent", the voice of the Vermilion Bird echoed again in Vann's head "Stop talking and listen to my explanation, I am a weapon spirit with the form of Vermilion Bird Blood. Ever since I became your spirit, I joined your blood. So now that you can be referred to as half human and half Vermilion Bird, then you also have a terrifying regeneration ability. Although your regeneration isn't as powerful as the original Vermilion Bird, but as your power grows, your regeneration ability increases as well".

"We're going to the core issue of how to escape from here! Look carefully, since some of the blood in your body is Vermilion Bird Blood, you are able to turn some or all of your body into fire. But with your current strength, there should be no way you can turn into a full-blown fire. But at least you can try to make wings, with the fire wings of the Vermilion Bird, you can fly further than relying on the abilities of your water dragon because the energy use of the Vermilion Bird wings is much less".

Vann shook his head "Vermilion, did you forget? We are now at the bottom of the cave! If we fly, I'll crash into the ceiling of the cave, not escape!".

"I know, you think I don't understand such a basic thing" the Vermilion Bird said confidently "I'll overcome the problem of the cave wall that bothers me, ' said the Vermilion Bird confidently, what you need to do is just make wings and then fly up, do you understand? If we try to escape from here alive, we have to work together!".

"I see, I'll try" said Vann trying to make wings through the new energy in his blood.

Vermilion Bird found Vann learning very quickly, fire wings started to appear behind him and slowly became large.

Finding Vann's comprehension ability extremely frightening, Vermilion Bird said "I did not wrongly choose you as my master! In the future, you must be a great cultivator".

When he saw Vann in the middle of the room as well as the fire wings on his body, then he found the Vermilion Bird Blood that was in the room disappeared, Gordaf immediately found out what happened. The boy in front of him dared to take his Vermilion Bird Blood treasure, the power of Qi Fondation dares to fight a mid-level cultivator like himself which made Gordaf very angry.

"Son, you seek death!", cried Gordaf who shook the entire cave.

Without a doubt, Gordaf hit towards Vann. A gigantic fist rushed towards Vann, although Gordaf's attack was only a basic punch, but his terrifying strength as a mid-level cultivator could Vann feel from the approaching fist.

Vann was sweating coldly, as long as this fist hit him, Vann would have died.

As Vann worried, the Vermilion Bird's cry sounded "Son, now is the time! Fly!".

Suddenly flames gathered around Vann, after which a 7 meter tall Vermilion Bird figure formed through the flames around his body and crashed heavily into the ceiling of the cave.

Not stopping there, another Vermilion Bird figure formed through the flames around Vann's body and crashed into Gordaf.

Although the Vermilion Bird formed from the fire was definitely unable to defeat Gordaf, there was at least no problem to buy time.

Without wasting any more time, Vann flew towards the direction where the Vermilion Bird smashed into the wall.

It is still unknown whether the Vermilion Bird had just managed to destroy the cave wall to the surface again, but Vann had no choice but to believe because only this path he could use.

While the other way, he had to pass Gordaf first which is almost impossible.

Vann flew at full speed through the hole in the cave, there was a lot of white smoke closing the path around him, all the white smoke was formed as the Vermilion Bird blew up the stones on the cave walls to make way for Vann.

When Vann opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find himself not in the cave anymore but instead had flown high in the sky.

Vann stared at the volcano below which he had just left.

"What are you doing, quickly get away from the Magma Pillar! Don't give the enemy a chance to chase you", the cry of the Vermilion Bird echoed in Vann's mind.

Vann who regained his senses from his shock from flying nodded, he moved the wings of the Vermilion Bird behind him to go to the gate towards the lower floor.
