My Master Knows It All-Chapter 208 - 130: Finished Writing But Forgot to Upload_2

As for the six arts included in the opportunities Cao Zhen obtained, especially alchemy, she was curious and even tempted, but she would not directly ask about it. After all, it was an opportunity that Cao Zhen had found for himself.

If Cao Zhen decided to share it with Li Ke, that would be even better, but if not, she wouldn’t insist. The Hundred Peaks Sect had its own rules, after all.

"Moreover," Tu Zhuque pointed outside the door and said, "Your newly accepted disciple Yi Sheng has a True Yang body, and we at Vermilion Bird Peak excel in the Fire Technique within the Hundred Peaks Sect. Should she encounter any issues during her cultivation, she can come to Vermilion Bird Peak to seek advice at any time. The same goes for your other four disciples."

Cao Zhen immediately broke into laughter. He had been worrying about how to broach the subject of the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool for Yi Sheng, yet Tu Zhuque had brought it up proactively. This was an offer of help from her.

"Chief Tu, actually, concerning my disciple Yi Sheng, I do have a favor to ask of the Peak Master," said Cao Zhen somewhat sheepishly. "I heard that Vermilion Bird Peak has the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool, and my disciple just so happens to have a True Yang body..."

"You wish to enter the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool?" Tu Zhuque’s face showed a smug smile as she said, "Indeed, the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool offers tremendous benefits to anyone who cultivates Fire Techniques or Divine Skills, as well as those with a fire system physique. And within the entire Hundred Peaks Sect, only Vermilion Bird Peak possesses the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool; even Azure Pheasant Peak doesn’t have one.

Normally, let alone individuals from other peaks, even our disciples at Vermilion Bird Peak don’t all qualify to immerse themselves in the Blood Pool. After all, with each additional person soaking in the Vermilion Bird’s Blood, it becomes more diluted.

However, since you and Ke have reached this stage, your disciple can be considered half a disciple of Vermilion Bird Peak. Given that she has a True Yang body, she is eligible to enter the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool.

After she soaks in the Blood Pool, her strength will increase significantly. This will also help Four Treasures Peak improve its ranking when Hundred Peaks reorganizes."

As Tu Zhuque spoke, she stood up from her chair and walked outside: "It just so happens that the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool is currently unoccupied. I will personally take you there."

"Thank you very much, Chief Tu," Cao Zhen hastily expressed his gratitude. Before coming to Vermilion Bird Peak, he hadn’t imagined that gaining access to the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool for Yi Sheng would go so smoothly, and he had Li Ke to thank for it.

It seemed from what Chief Tu said, were it not for the connection with Li Ke, his disciple might not have been granted access to the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool.

The Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool was situated on a Great Stone at the rear mountain of Vermilion Bird Peak, extremely close to the summit. The stone seemed as if it had flown in from beyond the heavens, standing out alone with just one area connecting to the main peak.

The entirety of the Great Stone was fiery red, and walking on it one could feel waves of searing heat. Cao Zhen even suspected that if he stood there much longer, the soles of his shoes would melt due to the high temperature of the stone.

Cao Zhen glanced at the ground beneath his feet, speculating whether the Great Stone was formed from the solidification of volcanic magma.

In the middle of the stone lay a square pool filled with a fiery red liquid that bubbled up from time to time.

Does this really contain the blood of the Vermilion Bird?

Cao Zhen eyed the so-called Blood Pool skeptically and looked around. Engraved throughout the red stone were various patterns.

Upon closer inspection, he could also see that several Crystal Stones were embedded into the stone.

There’s clearly a Formation on this Great Stone...

No, that’s incorrect! There are two Formations, merged together here, and the Blood Pool is the Formation Eye of both.

Moreover, there seem to be scents of several materials in the Blood Pool.

Cao Zhen sniffed, trying to discern the scents of materials within the Blood Pool...

Tu Zhuque, paying no mind to Cao Zhen, pointed at the Blood Pool and said to Yi Sheng, "This is the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool. Take off all your clothes and soak in it. How long you can stay in there will be up to your own fortune.

Remember, once you can’t endure any longer, get out immediately. Otherwise, at the very least, your meridians could be damaged, or at worst, you could be burned to death by the intense fire."

"Yes, thank you, Chief Tu," replied Yi Sheng, suppressing the excitement in her heart. She bowed to Tu Zhuque first, then began to remove her clothes, quickly exposing her long legs to the air.

Tu Zhuque watched Yi Sheng as she slowly undressed, but suddenly felt that something was amiss.

"Cao Zhen!"

In the next moment, she realized her error and turned her head to glare at Cao Zhen with anger: "Get out now!"

"Ah?" Cao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized the issue and turned his head away, chuckling inwardly. So this was the Vermilion Bird’s Blood Pool; when he returned, he’d consider setting up a similar Blood Pool at Four Treasures Peak if he had time.

As he left the Great Stone of the Blood Pool, it wasn’t long before Tu Zhuque and Li Ke also departed from within.

Seeing that there was nothing left for him to do at Vermilion Bird Peak, Cao Zhen took the initiative to say, "Peak Master, the Sect Leader previously asked me to find her. Shall I go now? Don’t worry, once I return to Four Treasures Peak, I will certainly accelerate my cultivation and will also push my disciples to do the same. If there’s anything they don’t understand, I’ll have them come and ask."

Tu Zhuque nodded slightly, her expression easing. Cao Zhen’s ambition was commendable. Although from any point of view, Cao Zhen didn’t seem to match her disciple, there was nothing she could do since her disciple fancied him. All she could do was help both Cao Zhen and Four Treasures Peak as much as possible.

Cao Zhen quickly departed from Vermilion Bird Peak and, unexpectedly, as he left the mountain, Li Ke even handed him a Spiritual Stone Ticket worth two hundred thousand taels.
