The Heavens: Man Covers the Heavens, Refines Treasures to Become an Emperor

Chapter 284 Return

At this moment, a stream of red light streaked across the sky and landed in front of Jiang Xuan.

It is the Fire Nation’s sacrificial spirit.

Since the battle for the mountain treasure ended, it quietly left the wilderness. During this period of time, its whereabouts have become a mystery.

But no one expected that it would appear here at this moment.

“Little red bird, I haven’t seen you for a long time. What brings you here this time?” Jiang Xuan said with a smile.

The little red bird slowly raised its head, its face conflicted.

The little head seemed to be engaged in a fierce ideological struggle, with the mouth slightly open, but hesitant to speak, as if there was something difficult to say.

“Just say whatever you want, don’t be so reserved.” Jiang Xuan looked calm with a faint smile on his face.

He knew very well that since the little red bird came, it must have something to ask for.

The little red bird took a deep breath, and its chest rose and fell slightly.

After a long while, he mustered up the courage to say, “Senior, I want to ask you something. You mentioned before that I should accompany the child in Shicun for a while. I have thought about it for a long time. Now, is this proposal… still possible?”

Its voice trembled slightly, carrying a hint of anticipation and a hint of uneasiness.

Jiang Xuan’s eyes were as calm as water, his expression did not change, and his tone was calm: “What do you mean? It’s been a while, I’m not sure what you mean specifically.”

Jiang Xuan knew the little red bird’s intention, he just wanted it to make its words clearer.

The little red bird paused and made a few soft chirps from its throat.

He encouraged himself, and then said with gritted teeth: “That’s… that’s what you said before, as long as I can accompany the child for a while, I will have the opportunity to come into contact with a rare opportunity.”

After saying that, it lowered its head, and its originally bright feathers seemed to be a little duller.

It felt ashamed of its previous refusal.

Jiang Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, as if smiling, “I remember that you were very determined at the time, and said bluntly that you didn’t want to stay and accompany the child?”

The little red bird’s voice unconsciously lowered a few notes, with a hint of embarrassment that was difficult to conceal: “I was short-sighted before, I…”

In fact, the real reason for the little red bird was that after it returned to the Fire Kingdom, it discovered that Huo Linger was practicing the Earth-Li Flame Technique. As a descendant of the Vermillion Bird, its heart was filled with strong desire, and its obsession with that precious technique grew deeper and deeper.

This is more powerful than his incomplete Suzaku magic.

He even suspected that even the complete Suzaku magic might not be better than the Earth-Li Yanguang magic.

The corners of Jiang Xuan’s mouth lifted slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He knew in his heart that its true intention might be more than just the innocence and cuteness of a child, but he did not point it out. He just watched it quietly.

“My Lord God, if I agree to this now, can I still get the chance to contact that opportunity as I said before?”

The little red bird raised its head again, its eyes glowing with anticipation and anxiety.

Thinking back to the moment when he returned to the Fire Nation, the little red bird was still vivid in his mind.

When it saw Huo Linger performing the complete Flame Technique, the brilliant flames and powerful force shocked it greatly, and it was followed by endless regret.

As a descendant of the Vermillion Bird, it has always longed to obtain the complete inherited magic. Now it does not have the complete Vermillion Bird magic, but it has the Ground-Li Flame Magic which is not inferior to the Vermillion Bird magic.

It suits him just as well.

But now, the opportunity that was so close to him was easily missed. At that moment, the desire in his heart was completely ignited, and the obsession with the Lidi Yanguang Technique burned in his heart like a raging fire.

Then the Fire Emperor told it everything without reservation.

As a national sacrificial spirit, it is closely linked to the fate of the Fire Nation and shares weal and woe with it.

The Fire Emperor knew that it had a long-standing connection with the human gods, so he no longer concealed the things about Jiang Xuan and the opportunity.

After learning the truth, the little red bird fell into a long silence.

It finally realized clearly that it had missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Once, an opportunity that was no less powerful than the Suzaku magic was placed before it without reservation, but due to its arrogance and short-sightedness, it did not cherish it, and only regretted it after it lost it.

For countless nights, it fantasized in its dreams that if God could give it another chance, it would seize it without hesitation.

In fact, before making this decision, the little red bird went through a painful and long struggle in his heart.

As a national sacrificial spirit, it had its own pride and dignity. At first, it found it hard to accept the idea of ​​accompanying a child in play just for a magic trick.

It had been thinking for countless days and nights on the altar of the Fire Nation. Whenever it wanted to give up the idea, the image of Huo Linger performing the Flame Light Technique would appear in its mind. The powerful force and mysterious technique lingered in its mind like a ghost.

After failing to obtain the magic from Huo Linger and gaining nothing from its journey to the Hongmeng Dao Tree in the Void God Realm, as time passed, its inner defenses finally began to waver.

The value of the Ground-Li Flame Technique to the descendants of the Vermillion Bird like them is simply immeasurable.

It would have been fine if he hadn’t had the chance to get it before, but now that this opportunity has slipped away from him, this obsession is almost turning into a demon in his heart, making him restless day and night.

Moreover, the little red bird was always filled with worry and anxiety. It clearly remembered that it had rejected Jiang Xuan twice.

Now that he has come to him on his own initiative, is Jiang Xuan still willing to put aside the past grudges and offer such tempting conditions?
After all, it is now relying on others for help, and this feeling of being dependent on others makes it feel very uncomfortable.

After countless entanglements and struggles, the little red bird finally made up its mind.

It came to Shi Village several times, but each time it just wandered outside the village. The fear and anxiety in its heart made it never dare to step into that door.

Watching the smoke rising from Shi Village and listening to the children’s laughter, the desire in its heart grew stronger.

Finally, this time, it mustered up all its courage, broke through the shackles in its heart, stepped into Shicun, and expressed its feelings directly.

“It’s not easy for you to come to your senses and make such a choice. I’m very pleased.” Jiang Xuan nodded slightly, his eyes appreciating, “My previous promise is still valid.”

The little red bird and the child had a deep bond in the future. To some extent, they were considered family members, so it was reasonable for them to give preferential treatment. The little red bird benefited, and the child could also benefit indirectly. This was a win-win situation.

“I look forward to your performance.” Jiang Xuan encouraged.

After hearing this, the little red bird had a complicated look on its face. Its eyes showed helplessness about the future “playing with” task, but also a strong expectation for the magic.

It nodded slightly, making a promise to Jiang Xuan.

In the wilderness, Shicun is nothing more than a tiny speck of dust.

A little red bird landed on the top of the huge tree at the entrance of the village.

Since then, a unique “gatekeeper” has moved in.

Prior to this, Jiang Xuan had carried out compulsory cultivation education in Shi Village, and the men, women and children of Shi Village had gained a preliminary understanding of cultivation.

At this moment, they looked puzzled, as the bird did not look like a native of the pond.

It is a divine bird with venerable level!

Where did this extremely powerful divine bird come from?

What kind of unknown past does it have?

This aroused everyone’s curiosity and speculation in Shi Village. After dinner, the villagers talked about this mysterious little red bird.

The little red bird, who had just arrived, was filled with loneliness and resentment.

Looking back to the past, it was a highly respected sacrificial spirit and lived in an extremely luxurious bird palace.

The bird palace was made of beautiful jade and exquisite gold threads. Every day, servants would select the finest food to offer to it, and people from all over the country would worship it.

It only needs to flap its wings gently to make its subjects cheer.

Now, it has been reduced from a high-ranking sacrificial spirit to a village bird that no one cares about. This huge gap in status has filled its heart with confusion.

In the early days, it was like a lonely animal, curled up in a corner of the village. Its feathers had lost their former luster and it was full of resistance to everything around it.

It often stares blankly at the sky, recalling its past glory.

However, Shicun’s simplicity and enthusiasm, like a surging and unstoppable wave, gradually broke the ice in the little red bird’s heart.

The children in the village gathered around the little red bird like a tide.

They approached cautiously, their young faces filled with excitement and anticipation.

They used their dirty little hands to bring the delicious food they had collected from home to the little red bird.

Those greetings, like the warmest sunshine in winter, shine into the little red bird’s heart.

This was something he had never encountered in the Fire Nation.

Slowly, the little red bird was completely conquered by kindness.

It stopped resisting and began to try to integrate into this new environment.

It spread its wings and soared in the sky of Shi Village. The clear and melodious bird song was intertwined with the laughter of the villagers.

It finally completely integrated into this warm land.

In Jiang Xuan’s opinion, the little red bird is a natural worker.

He waved his hand and entrusted it with the important task of enlightening the children in cultivation.

When the little red bird heard that the little one was not in the village for the time being, its tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed. A huge rock in its heart fell to the ground, and it gladly agreed to this arrangement.

He also gained a lot from interacting with innocent children and imparting them cultivation knowledge.

During the days of teaching in Shicun, the little red bird was shocked.

Shicun is truly a treasure trove.

When the little red bird stepped into it for the first time, an ancient yet powerful atmosphere hit it in the face, making it feel awe.

Any one of the most powerful techniques hidden inside is enough to stir up a storm in the entire cultivation world and cause a bloody storm!
The Central Shuji Xinghuang Treasure Technique, nothing can break it, and all methods are invulnerable. The Qinglian Treasure Color Technique, calms the mind and spirit, and all evils retreat. The Lidi Yanguang Technique, confuses yin and yang, and reverses the five elements. The Suse Yunjie Technique, strange images are everywhere, and the sky and the earth are bright. The Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, controls all the waters in the world, and shifts the mountains and rivers.

“The Earth-Li Flame Technique is just one of the Five Magical Techniques, yet it is so powerful…” the little red bird muttered to itself, completely shocked.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of the many magical techniques in the library. A vast number of magical techniques are densely arranged on the bookshelves, and each one has the power to turn the world upside down.

Once these precious techniques are mastered by practitioners, their power is enough to change the world.

Even the Three Thousand Dao States, which are full of powerful people and abundant resources, would be jealous when seeing these magical skills.

The powerful Fire Nation cannot compare with these top-level magic techniques.

“It’s like a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky…”

Jiang Xuan adopted a completely open attitude towards the little red bird’s exposure to these magical techniques.

He used his great supernatural powers to transform the countless magic weapon imprints in the Hongmeng Treasure Mirror into cultivation techniques. In his eyes, these techniques were nothing more than ordinary things.

In the future, the little red bird will be a comrade-in-arms who can fight side by side with everyone in Shi Village and share life and death with them. There is no need to hide these cultivation secrets from it.

In fact, Jiang Xuan hopes to open a door to the road to strength for the people of Shi Village, provide them with top-level training resources, and help them improve their strength.

Unfortunately, the current talents of the people in Shi Village generally do not meet the requirements for practicing those advanced treasures and techniques.

As we all know, the more powerful the skills and magic techniques are, the higher the requirements for people are. If one’s qualifications are not up to a certain level when practicing, one will suffer the consequences.

Those treasures that were regarded as precious by the world and fought for at all costs were piled up like a mountain in Jiang Xuan’s treasure house.

He quietly waited for the opportunity for the villagers’ talents to improve.

That day may not come soon, but he is willing to wait.

The little red bird teaches the children in Shi Village with all her heart.

It imparts the knowledge of cultivation to the children in its own unique way, and the children are full of awe and love for this special teacher.

Under the guidance of the little red bird, the children’s cultivation progress advanced by leaps and bounds. They gradually mastered some basic cultivation techniques and their strength continued to improve.

As the days go by, Shicun seems peaceful, but beneath the calm surface, there is a thriving force hidden.

Jiang Xuan and Little Red Bird are working hard for the future of Shi Village.
And this day may not be far away.

……

“Go! Look at me speeding like lightning!”

Outside Shi Village, the little one’s excited shouts suddenly broke out.

The childish voice was full of vigor and vitality, instantly breaking the quiet atmosphere of the village.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

A strange sound was heard immediately afterwards. It was obviously not an ordinary sound. It was obviously made intentionally by the little guy.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw the little guy lying in a large, glittering pottery jar, with bloody animal milk still gushing out of the jar.

“Slurp!” The little guy drank it all in one gulp and looked around hurriedly. Seeing that no one saw it, he felt relieved.

The little guy’s face flushed with excitement, and he shouted at the top of his voice: “I’m triumphant!”

At the same time, it continued to make “clang clang” sounds with its mouth, adding a unique “marching music” to the originally silent pottery jar under it, which made it look both funny and cute.

Jiang Xuan saw this scene from afar and shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

This is a set of BGM for myself.

When he passed by Willow God, he raised his head and shouted, “Three hundred thousand miles have passed, I’m back!”

The Willow God responded by gently waving its branches.

As soon as he stepped into the village, the little guy jumped out of the pottery jar nimbly.

The magical thing is that the seemingly ordinary large pottery jar suddenly shrank to the size of a palm.

The little red bird’s eyes narrowed, “This pottery jar is better than the Venerable’s divine weapon…”

Then, the little guy took a step with his short legs, like a small elastic ball, and jumped into Jiang Xuan’s arms with a “whoosh”. He held his chest high, looked proud, and said loudly: “Master, I’ve done it!”

Jiang Xuandi rubbed the little one’s head and teased with a smile: “Well, it tastes very milky, not like local animal milk!”

The little one laughed twice and twisted around happily in Jiang Xuan’s arms, just like a happy little rabbit.

At this time, Shi Yunfeng and the elders of the village gathered around.

Their faces were filled with excitement and their eyes were filled with relief. The worries they had had about the little one going out for some time were finally put to rest.

Unlike Jiang Xuan, they have been living in fear these days.

The little one had sharp eyes and spotted Shi Yunfeng at once. Like an agile little monkey, he jumped from Jiang Xuan’s arms to Shi Yunfeng’s arms and shouted excitedly: “Grandpa Patriarch, I succeeded!”

Shi Yunfeng’s eyes were slightly red, and his rough hands gently patted the little one’s back, his voice trembling with excitement: “Good boy, Grandpa knows!” (End of this chapter)
