Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 641 - 428: The Strongest Upgrade Pill: Karma Fire Pill (Two-in-One)

Chapter 641: Chapter 428: The Strongest Upgrade Pill: Karma Fire Pill (Two-in-One)

After speaking, Gu An cupped his fists, then took his leave.

Yet the Great Elder and others remained resolute.

This battle must be fought.

Even if in the end, only one soldier remains.

....

At the negotiation table in the Divine Falling Mountain Range, the atmosphere had dropped to freezing point.

Gu Youshan looked at Xuanyuan Zhou opposite him, whose face was so dark it could almost drip water, and his last shred of hope shattered.

News from the Spirit Alliance had obviously reached here too.

Now the world’s opposition to the Divine Race is very high.

Gu An’s news had also arrived, and the Spirit Alliance was unwilling to back down, meaning there was no hope for the next round of negotiations.

The Spirit Alliance’s trick was equivalent to putting both the Human Race and the Divine Race on a spit...

To put it bluntly, it’s a matter of face.

"Elder Xuanyuan," Gu Youshan took a deep breath, making a last effort,

"The matter of the Spirit Academy occurred for a reason. If your noble race is willing to sign a century-old agreement and promise not to invade the Dragon Veins again, the Celestial Capital will spare no effort to make the Spirit Alliance apologize, resolving the conflict..."

Xuanyuan Zhou abruptly interrupted him, voice sharp and full of mockery, no longer the previous arrogance, only left with the rage and killing intent after being humiliated,

"I don’t think it’s necessary, now the whole world is against continuing the treaty."

"Your Human Race’s dignity won’t stand this insult, right."

He suddenly stood up, his aura roiling: 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"I think there’s no need to negotiate anymore! Since your Human Race has chosen war, be prepared to face the wrath of the Divine Race!"

"The century-old agreement is now worthless! You, await obliteration!"

Before his words were finished, Xuanyuan Zhou had already transformed into a stream of light and left with all his Ancient Race attendants angrily, the negotiations completely broken.

Gu Youshan stood frozen, looking in the direction of their disappearance, and let out a long sigh, closing his eyes wearily.

He knew the worst outcome had still happened.

The facade of peace had been utterly torn apart, and a comprehensive war sweeping across the continent was now inevitable.

Could the Spirit Academy be blamed?

Certainly not.

The Spirit Academy had acted ethically; when the Ancient Race launched the first attack against them, the Academy did not announce it externally, but the Ancient Race had launched a second wave of offense...

No matter how good-tempered a person might be, they wouldn’t tolerate it anymore.

But as the Great Elder said, the people and forces of the Celestial Capital only ever care about their own interests.

Unless their interests are affected, they won’t care about the life and death outside.

He waved his hand, his voice hoarse: "Send the order... negotiations are terminated, everyone... return to Celestial Capital and prepare... for war."

.....

Meanwhile, within the Ancient Race realm.

The hundred or so fortunate soldiers who escaped back brought with them the shocking news of the deaths of elders Gu Feng and Gu Zheng, as well as the near-total annihilation of the army, shaking the entire high-level echelon of the Ancient Race!

In the solemn hall, the atmosphere was terrifyingly oppressive.

"Useless! Two half-step Immortal Realm, carrying Phoenix Bloodline, yet fell into the hands of a lower realm!" An elder with a fiery temper roared, his voice like thunder, "A disgrace! If this vendetta is not avenged, where does the dignity of our Ancient Race stand?"

"We must immediately muster troops, flatten that Spirit Academy, and extract the soul of that Celestial Spirit Body!"

"No!" Another elder, relatively composed, immediately retorted, with a heavy expression,

"The Spirit Academy being able to kill Gu Feng and Gu Zheng was no accident. That Celestial Spirit Body can absorb the Tree Ancestor’s Tao fruit; its bizarre methods far exceed our estimation. If we rashly send the army again and something goes wrong..."

"Are we just going to leave it at that?!" the previous elder glared.

"Naturally not!" the composed elder said sternly, "We need careful deliberation...."

"Deliberate what?" the elder shouted, "Shall we let the Human Race and other Divine Races look down on our Ancient Race?"

"This matter must be resolved by us, the Ancient Race, to restore our dignity."

As they spoke, the two began to argue.

Until a cold, dull voice sounded:

"What are you arguing about?"

Hearing this, everyone’s pupils suddenly shrank, looking towards the entrance.

Two people stood there, surveying the aura around them; everyone cupped their fists, not daring to say more.

Gu Zheng and Gu Feng were one of four major elders, and these two were the remaining great elders.

Leading was Gu Chong, the foremost of the four elders, with unfathomable strength.

Behind was Gu Su, ranking third.

The arrival of the two instantly suppressed the scene.

Gu Chong walked to the chief position and uttered shocking words.

"The clan leader is already aware of this matter...."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s pupils contracted violently.

"The clan leader has come out of seclusion?"

They had not seen the clan leader for three hundred years and had no news of him.

"He has not come out of seclusion; a mere Spirit Academy is not enough to make him leave." Gu Chong said coldly.

"I said we must fight." The fiery elder said.

Gu Chong glanced at him, his gaze fierce and said:

"Fight we must; even if at all costs, we have to flatten Spirit Academy."

"But now it’s not just our battlefield, the Xuanyuan clan has already returned from the Human Race."

When they heard this, they immediately understood, someone said:

"Does this mean the Human Race and Divine Race will go to war again?"

"Correct." Gu Chong said, "The Spirit Academy formed the Spirit Alliance and publicly acknowledged the existence of the Divine Race; now the world’s anti-Divine Race momentum is strong."

"Neither the Human Race nor the Divine Race can set aside this matter or swallow this insult anymore."

After speaking, Gu Chong and Gu Su left.

This time they needed to go to the Divine Hall to convene the Divine Race meeting to discuss the campaign against the Human Race.

...

Spirit Academy

After the framework of the Spirit Alliance was finally completed, Lin Chen finally had free time.

This battle could be described as extremely fierce.

Xiaobai’s performance was considered remarkable, and now that the Fire Spirit could use skills, Lin Chen’s Spirit Beast could finally form a line, which is:

Xiaobai + Xiaohuo’s True Fire Affinity + Xiaolanyu’s Beast Power.

But Lin Chen understood, this was not the optimal solution.

The optimal solution is:

Little Fox + True Fire Affinity + Xiaolanyu.

If on a large battlefield, the Little Fox’s Anomalous Fire Nuclear Bomb would be a devastating weapon.

Unfortunately, the Little Fox was still some distance from reaching level eighty.

Meanwhile, Xiaobai advanced 2 more levels in this battle, reaching level 82.

However, Xiao Hong also improved in level but only reached level 77, still three levels away from level 80.

"By then, low-end combat power, you, a fox, can handle it." Lin Chen said to Xiao Hong.

Xiao Hong nodded.

Unexpectedly, beside him Liu Gu said, "There is a way to help Xiao Hong breakthrough, though I don’t know if it will work."

"This won’t be like forcing it to grow, right?" Lin Chen worried.

"Of course not." Liu Gu shook his head and said, "Many Phoenixes died in this battle, didn’t they?"

Lin Chen nodded.

"Using these Phoenix skeletons, one can craft Karma Fire Pill...." Liu Gu said quickly, "Ordinary Spirit Beasts can’t bear this Karma Fire Pill, because its properties are highly volatile...."

"Why have I never heard of it?" Lin Chen wondered.

"That’s certain." Liu Gu said, "This elixir requires 10 or more Phoenixes; before, never mind 10 Phoenixes, getting just one Phoenix skeleton was a pipe dream."

"It’s also known as the strongest Upgrade Pill!"

Lin Chen thought, and it indeed seemed so.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "If it is really useful, then it can be tried."

Afterward, he and Liu Gu went to consult the Great Elder, who, after hearing them, nodded and said, "There indeed is such a thing."

Thinking about it, he looked at the Fire Spirit, and said, "Since there are many Phoenix skeletons, make more, and let the Fire Spirit also consume one."

The Great Elder once taught the Little Fox and knew how powerful it was in such large-scale warfare.

Subsequently, Lin Chen and Liu Gu left the place, heading to the rear hills to pick some skeletons.

Passing by the Tree Ancestor’s fallen place, Lin Chen was surprised to find a sapling growing there.

Lin Chen and Liu Gu were ecstatic to see it; they didn’t linger long, slightly bowed and left.

They picked a total of twenty skeletons, then Liu Gu instructed the Big White Bear to fetch water.

This fetching resulted in a full hundred barrels of water, filling the oversized cauldron Liu Gu had brought entirely.

"Why so much water?" Lin Chen was puzzled.

"Making bone broth."

Liu Gu said, "This Karma Fire Pill isn’t easy to concoct, not only needing Phoenix skeletons but also a specific fire type."

"If it weren’t for your Taiyi True Fire, it might not even be possible to make it."

"So strict?!"
