Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

Chapter 460 Driving Away Wolves to Devour Tigers

"He came from the Starry Sky, and accidentally merged with the Primordial Divine Light of the Azure Dragon Star Lord, secretly strengthening his power in the Xuanwu Temple."

"I see."

The Vermilion Bird Envoy probably knew something. As someone who followed that powerful cosmic being in the war, he knew quite a bit about the mechanical race.

"So, the crisis the Azure Dragon Envoy was talking about is him?"

Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "I can't tell, so I came to ask you."

The Vermilion Bird envoy nodded, "I understand," then looked at Kam and asked, "Do you have a mechanical heart?"

"Yes," Cam said.

The Vermilion Bird Envoy nodded, then looked at Xiao Weiqing again, "Are you planning to deal with him?"

Xiao Weiqing replied, "Kam said he could let me control the Mechanical Heart. Do you have any questions about that? If there are, I'll kill him."

The Vermilion Bird envoy pondered for a moment and explained:

"The Machine Race is also a very powerful race in the universe, but the number of individuals in the race is very small."

"rare?"

"I remember them being everywhere on the Starship."

Xiao Weiqing clearly remembered that when he went to the Starry Sky, hundreds of geniuses were being hunted down by those endless mechanical life forms.

The Vermilion Bird envoy shook his head in denial, "Those mechanical life forms that do not have mechanical hearts are somewhat similar to robots without their own consciousness, and cannot be considered intelligent races."

"Only mechanical life forms with mechanical hearts can be considered true mechanical races, because mechanical races can use their mechanical hearts to change the properties of metals and create mechanical armies, which in turn can conquer the world to support themselves."

"For a lowly civilization like yours to encounter a mechanical race with a mechanical heart is both a disaster and an opportunity."

Xiao Weiqing frowned; this mechanical race was somewhat similar to the Zerg in movies and TV shows.

"Can I control him through the Mechanical Heart?"

The Vermilion Bird envoy shook his head and said, "It is possible, but it is fundamentally different from what you think of as control."

"How so?"

"With your current strength, you cannot completely control the mechanical heart, but you can imprint your divine soul on it."

"There are also many benefits; at least it can temporarily resolve the crisis of Earth's civilization."

Xiao Weiqing's eyes brightened. "What are the benefits?"

"First, as long as you're in the same world, you'll know his location."

"Secondly, as long as you don't die, his realm cannot surpass yours."

Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly. Just as Kam had said, it seemed that he had not lied to him after all.

"However..." the Vermilion Bird envoy continued, "Once the mechanical heart of a machine race is branded, it is essentially equivalent to half a slave. This kind of behavior is extremely hated by the machine race in the universe. If other machine races find out, your fate will probably not be good."

"Actually, you can kill him. A mechanical heart is very valuable. If it can be cultivated to a star level, its value is no less than that of a temple."

"This is what the Vermilion Bird envoy suggested."

"Visman, don't talk nonsense."

"Kam said coldly, his tone a little urgent."

"Xiao Weiqing, as I said before, I evolved my mechanical heart by fusing with the Primordial Divine Light of the Azure Dragon Star Lord. The resources required to cultivate my mechanical heart to a star level are even higher than those required for a star-level mechanical heart itself, making it a complete loss."

The Vermilion Bird Divine Envoy pondered for a few seconds, "That makes some sense. After all, the Azure Dragon Star Lord's primordial divine light is suppressed by the nurturing ground, so Kam shouldn't be able to enter the star level."

"I see."

Xiao Weiqing nodded, having made up his mind. Whether Kam's Mechanical Heart could reach the Star level was still uncertain.

However, as long as Xiao Weiqing doesn't die, Kam's strength won't be stronger than his, so there won't be any problems. Plus, he can always know Kam's location, so killing him will be easy.

"Vermilion Bird Divine Envoy, tell me how to imprint his divine soul mark on his mechanical heart."

"Are you really not going to use a mechanical heart?"

"I have nothing to do right now, so I can help you with your research," said the Vermilion Bird Envoy.

"Wesleys, shut up!" Kam shouted.

Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "No, I still need him."

The Vermilion Bird envoy was somewhat disappointed. "Alright, I'll listen to you."

"Kam, unleash your mechanical heart."

Upon hearing this, Kam had no choice but to open his chest, revealing his pale blue heart, which slowly floated out of his body.

"Mr. Xiao, you can use your mental power to imprint this pattern on the Mechanical Heart," said the Vermilion Bird Envoy, opening his palm to reveal a complex and mysterious mark.

Xiao Weiqing nodded without hesitation. Under the probing of his soul, the mysterious mark was clearly presented in his mind.

With a surge of spiritual power, a golden mark was quickly imprinted on Kam's mechanical heart.

"That's fine."

"This is what the Vermilion Bird Goddess said."

Kam retracted the Mechanical Heart into his body.

Xiao Weiqing had a very peculiar feeling. As long as he recalled that mark in his mind, he could know the location of the mechanical heart more clearly than looking at a map.

"Cam, come with me."

The three left.

......

Inside the aircraft.

"Palace Master, where is the nearest entrance to the Demon Realm?"

Palace Mistress Yun Shu raised an eyebrow. "You mean...?"

"Yes, send Kam to the Demon Realm."

"good."

"Using one wolf to devour another"—that was Xiao Weiqing's arrangement for Kam.

"Cam, do you have any opinions?" Xiao Weiqing asked, squinting his eyes.

Kam: "..."

What opinions could he possibly have? What opinions would he dare to have? He was at the mercy of others, and silence was his best response.

"Um?"

Xiao Weiqing spoke coldly, his brows furrowing.

"Your arrangements are very reasonable," Kam said quickly, bowing his head.

"very good."

Xiao Weiqing nodded in satisfaction.

The aircraft headed eastward.

Two hours later.

We arrived at Fengshun Prefecture, a place called Hongyan County.

Red Flame County is located at the border between the Vermilion Bird Empire and the Great Xia Dynasty.

There is a red mountain here called Red Flame Mountain, which is famous because it is covered with red trees whose leaves are shaped like flames.

but.

Today, Hongyan Mountain is even more famous.

Because three years ago, a new entrance to the demon realm appeared here.

Li Wen, a peak expert of the eighth realm, has been guarding this place since the entrance to the Crimson Flame Demon Realm appeared, and there have been no abnormalities in the past three years.

In fact.

Generally, there is little fighting at the entrance to the demon realm when it first appears. Occasionally, a small team of the Vermilion Bird Army can be sent into the demon realm to search for intelligence.

however.

Two hours earlier, Li Wen received a special order: Princess Yun Shu was to come to him.

This left him somewhat puzzled.

Wait quietly.

Not long after.

A crimson aircraft flew at high speed from the horizon and hovered halfway up the mountain.

Li Wen took to the air and arrived not far from the aircraft.

The hatch opened.

A stunningly beautiful woman stepped out of the cabin, followed by a man who was imposing and looked extraordinary.

The man and Palace Mistress Yun Shu stood side by side, their relationship appearing to be quite unusual.

Finally, another cold-looking man stepped out. He was unsmiling and appeared to be a bodyguard, Li Wen thought to himself.

"Greetings, Palace Master."

Palace Mistress Yun Shu nodded slightly.

"Thank you for your help, General Li."

"No trouble at all, Palace Master, this way please."
