It’s different from Kuafu’s confident wading.
Han Zhan walked on the red sea surface, and beneath his feet, blocks of light bricks were gathered and pieced together.
This is the power of the Nuwa Stone.
Once in the Qinse Fruit World, Shang Siteng had demonstrated its use.
Han Zhan always wanted to try it himself, and now he finally gets the opportunity.
Han Zhan doesn’t have Kuafu’s exaggerated physique and cannot cross the Blood Pool with his flesh body.
Observing his actions, Kuafu’s gaze slightly lingered on Han Zhan.
However, he still said nothing, continuing to walk slowly into the depths of the Blood Pool.
"Special materials are usually nurtured at the bottom of the Blood Pool."
As he walked, Kuafu spoke up.
"Given my current state, I can only contain three instances of special materials, so if a fourth is found, I can give it to you."
These were words of caution ahead.
In other words, Kuafu implied that Han Zhan shouldn’t expect the first three special materials, as he wouldn’t be giving them up.
To this, Han Zhan nodded slightly, without objection.
"What do special materials look like?"
"Words can’t describe them, but if you encounter one in the Blood Pool, you’ll surely recognize it at a glance."
The two spoke as they walked for a long ti ahead.
Kuafu’s assessnt of Han Zhan changed once more.
This person, by his thods, doesn’t seem like a warrior of the Jiuli Race, but rather resembles soone of the Wizard Lineage.
His vitality is abundant; even when I deliberately quickened my pace, his aura remained unfazed. I had underestimated him.
Kuafu thought, watching Han Zhan still leisurely strolling on the Sea of Blood.
While Kuafu was observing Han Zhan, Han Zhan was observing the surroundings.
Regarding special materials, he was sowhat curious.
No longer a novice, Han Zhan had suspicions about the concept of "gods."
Could the gods they ntion possibly be those creatures that have fused with their Origin?
Han Zhan had indeed encountered such creatures before.
In his mory, that gigantic eyeball occupying the entire sky was vividly rembered.
"Found it!"
Suddenly, Kuafu shouted.
His tone was filled with joy, and he increased his speed in moving through the water, heading towards the distance.
Han Zhan followed his direction, looking farther ahead.
He saw,
A ring of golden-yellow light suddenly appeared on the sea surface, originally red.
The region illuminated by the golden light, the seawater bubbled as if boiling.
The central area was like a blooming golden radiant flower.
"That’s special material!"
Kuafu’s voice ca from ahead.
As he indeed said, the special material was extrely conspicuous in the entire Blood Pool, identifiable at a glance.
Thinking of this, Han Zhan also quickened his pace to get closer.
The nearer they got to that area, the thicker the fog on the sea surface beca, and previously vanished whispering sounds seed to ring once more in his ears.
Kuafu was more excited than he imagined.
Even with both chasing at full speed, the two of them opened up quite a distance.
In the region blooming with golden brilliance, a golden small sun suddenly rose!
The light dispelled the fog, also causing Han Zhan a montary blindness.
Kuafu, oblivious, continued forward, raising his right hand, as if chasing the sun.
He succeeded.
The right hand stretched out, grasping the golden sun, the light returned to dimness.
The next second, the golden sun rged into Kuafu’s entire Blood Embryo, changing the color of the embryo from black to bright!
"Is it like this?"
"So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is!"
"No, that’s not right!"
"Wrong, all wrong, we’ve all been mistaken!"
With Kuafu’s continuous self-muttering, the originally bright gold inside his Blood Embryo gradually dimd again.
Black reoccupied his entire body.
It wasn’t only that, it seed even darker than when first seen.
After a brief silence, Kuafu awoke abruptly, breathing heavily.
The small golden sun had vanished, the blood-colored sea water returned to calmness.
"How long did I just stay here?"
"A blink."
"A blink, really? In my perception, it felt like a hundred years had passed."
Kuafu’s voice revealed age and exhaustion, apparently rging special material had quite an impact on him.
"Shall we continue?" Han Zhan asked.
He noticed Kuafu’s spirit wasn’t quite right.
Just one fusion of special material caused such spiritual harm; two more tis, could he actually bear it?
"Continue."
After silence, Kuafu’s tone reinvigorated.
"Earlier, you were rambling, saying it’s all wrong, everything’s wrong—what did you see?"
"I saw... saw my demise, saw the path I pursued collapsing and falling into extinction."
Kuafu turned his head, peering behind.
Though the Blood Embryo has neither features nor facial appearance, Han Zhan felt his gaze lingered on himself.
"So this is the insight of the gods? A realization of failure?"
"The insight of the gods doesn’t harbor failure. Failure pertains to ."
Kuafu finished speaking and no longer talked, continuing to move forward.
Watching his pitch-black back, Han Zhan felt a deep sense of desolation.
As Han Zhan prepared to catch up, he suddenly sensed sothing, and paused.
In the place where the golden sun was nurtured, now only the empty red sea surface remains.
Yet above this empty sea surface, in Han Zhan’s perception, he could "see" many tiny golden particles.
They scattered above the whole blood-colored sea, everywhere.
Han Zhan felt a slight stir in his heart.
Deploying the Heaven’s Origin Power, all those golden particles converged into his palm, eventually forming a golden bead the size of a peanut.
"What is this..."
Residual in the Blood Pool, yet to completely dissipate special material?
Before Han Zhan could think it through, his body reacted first.
In the sea of consciousness, the previously silent Bodhi Treasure Tree started gently swaying branches.
A faint golden radiance emitted and blood from the treetops.
It seed... expressing a yearning for this special material?
Is the Bodhi Treasure Tree yearning for special material?
No, not entirely.
If the Bodhi Treasure Tree yearns for special material, why did it show no reaction initially upon seeing the golden sun?
Why did it respond after Kuafu absorbed and fused the special material, thus the so-called divine insight?
Unless, the golden bead in my hand and the special material are two different things!
"Could it be possible that the special material is actually ford by these golden particles and the spiritual perceptions of gods lding together?"
God’s spiritual perceptions are intangible and formless, only attaching to the golden particles can beco tangible special material!
Thus, the Bodhi Treasure Tree wishes to absorb not the spiritual perceptions, but these unknown golden particles.
