This...

Watching the scene before them was like a heavy hammer striking the hearts of all Jiuli Warriors.

That was Fenghou, a Tier Eight Realm, combined with the Mutated Fenghou!

Even Feng Bo, another great power of the Jiuli Tribe, could only be beaten to the point of fleeing in panic.

Yet she was instantly defeated by a single person?

Is this still a human?!

Han Zhan’s instant defeat of Fenghou involved a significant factor of restraint.

Fenghou’s ability was to interfere with emotions, making people generate all kinds of distracting thoughts, then overwhelming them by breaking through emotional defenses, leaving opponents in chaos and completing the crush.

But, Han Zhan’s sea of consciousness was lucky enough to have the Bodhi Treasure Tree, helping him to be immune to such interference.

The strongest ability was almost nullified, like a toothless tiger; after close combat with an Tier Eight Sword Cultivator like Han Zhan, falling apart in a single strike was expected.

This was the true reason Han Zhan instantly defeated Fenghou.

"What are you standing there for?" Han Zhan sheathed his long sword and turned around.

He reached out to Feng Bo.

"What?" Feng Bo saw Han Zhan’s gesture and didn’t react for a moment.

"Bounty."

"Bounty? What bounty?"

"The bounty for saving you and defeating Fenghou." Han Zhan said matter-of-factly.

Li Wu could only hold his forehead when he heard this.

When they first left the village, Han Zhan had Li Lingzhen absorb the heart’s blood of the Jiuli villagers, and Li Wu vaguely understood what transaction Han Zhan was talking about.

He just didn’t expect Han Zhan would speak so plainly and naturally even to a Jiuli Great Power like Feng Bo.

However, recalling Han Zhan’s performance of defeating Fenghou, Li Wu could only keep his mouth shut.

Feng Bo obviously remembered Han Zhan’s move earlier, swallowed hard, and calmed his mood.

"I don’t know, this... lord, what kind of bounty you want? You saved all of us Jiuli Warriors, whatever the bounty is, we are willing to..."

"Heart’s blood." Han Zhan said calmly.

Feng Bo almost bit his tongue.

"What?! You!"

That heart’s blood, containing the Blood of the Demon God, is the most precious heart’s blood to every Jiuli Warrior.

How could it sound so simple coming from your mouth, like drinking a bowl of soup?

Feng Bo’s first reaction was to refuse.

Then he saw Han Zhan’s gesture of rubbing the sword hilt.

He defeated Fenghou, he defeated Fenghou... Feng Bo repeated this several times in his mind, emphasizing it repeatedly, calming himself down.

Li Lingzhen at this time also stepped forward from backstage.

In her hands, she still held the Demon God’s Heart; after being activated, Feng Bo felt a piercing pain from his heart, and immediately, the heart’s blood uncontrollably gathered towards the Demon God’s Heart.

Not just Feng Bo, other Jiuli Warriors were the same.

They hung their heads low, enduring the excruciating pain.

Han Zhan was quite lenient and didn’t extract all their heart’s blood, leaving some behind.

Heart’s blood, like Spiritual Power, can be accumulated again over time.

Between heart’s blood and life, nobody would madly choose the former.

The heart’s blood of the Jiuli Great Power and Jiuli Warriors was purer than the previous Jiuli villagers’, now the Demon God’s Heart, originally like a small burning candle flame, was burning more vigorously.

Red light filled the entire heart wall, thin blood vessels appeared in the dark heart wall.

Han Zhan examined closely and had already understood the revival standard in his heart.

The complete silence of the Demon God’s Heart, at its core, was due to the exhaustion of origin.

After initially pouring onto the Demon God’s Heart, the flame within was successfully awakened, entering the first stage.

After this, as the Demon God’s Heart continued to absorb, the flame grew, becoming a fire that illuminated the entire heart wall, at which point the first stage drew to a close, starting the second stage.

The second stage of the Demon God’s Heart should be when it fills the blood vessels within the heart wall with the Demon God’s Heart, completing a full blood-pumping cycle.

By then, the Demon God’s Heart would enter the third stage, officially awakened as a true Original Dao Soldier.

Finished examining the Demon God’s Heart, Han Zhan then examined Feng Bo and the others.

Under Li Lingzhen’s supplement of Life Spiritual Power, Feng Bo and his group not only did not become weary due to the extraction of heart’s blood, but were even more energized than before.

Now, the look in Feng Bo’s eyes towards Han Zhan and his group changed.

Han Zhan’s strength was undeniable, Li Wu could transform into a giant thirty feet tall, at Great Power level, and there was still one who could resurrect life?

A team that can attack, withstand, and heal, this kind of lineup was simply a standard configuration.

This left not even a trace of his remaining resentment.

"Thank you both for saving us." Feng Bo thought of this and again cupped his hands, expressing gratitude to Han Zhan and Li Lingzhen.

The other Jiuli Warriors, seeing Feng Bo’s gesture, followed suit one by one, bowing their heads in respectful thanks.

"Now, with the crisis from Fenghou of the Yellow Emperor Tribe resolved, shouldn’t we return together and report to the Great Chief?"

"No, we still have to continue marching, you take these Jiuli villagers back, we’ll part ways here."

Han Zhan refused Feng Bo’s invitation to travel together.

The scene Chi You showed them included two other different enemies besides Fenghou, waiting for him to resolve.

...

The second battlefield, opened on the plain.

At this moment, a deep pit was smashed into the ground on the plain.

Above the pit, a graceful figure in white stood hovering in the air.

Behind her were eight flying heads, like eight kites suspended in the sky.

"Is this still the Nine Heavens Profound Lady of the Yellow Emperor Tribe?" Over on the Jiuli Tribe’s side, a monster with a human head and beast body spoke in human tongue.

Beside him was a small-statured child, yet with black hair and red eyes, long ears, resembling a rabbit monster somewhat.

"Nine Heavens Suspended Lady, isn’t it just hanging in the sky?"

"Fool, the ’xuan’ for Profound Lady isn’t ’xuan’ for hanging!"

They bickered back and forth, neither welcoming the other, cursing each other.

The next second, both simultaneously let out a strange cry, dodging to the sides.

The eight heads of Nine Heavens Profound Lady opened their mouths, beams of different colored Spiritual Power fired out as light beams.

Plowing the already scarred ground once more.

"Chi Mei Wang Liang, two lords, please help us subdue this curse!" Further from the battlefield center, four great chieftains led their Jiuli Warriors, defending in four different directions, stabilizing this land.

Chi Mei is the human-headed beast-bodied monster, and Wang Liang is the rabbit monster child.

Upon hearing the voice of the Jiuli Chieftain, they immediately started issuing a series of eerie cries, like demonic sounds pouring into the ears, rushing towards the Nine Heavens Profound Lady in the scene!
