After much hesitation, he still chose the "Wind Profound Crane Blood".

He didn't have much confidence that he could withstand a strong attack from someone in the Purple Mansion Realm, so instead of seeking that, it was better to seek speed.

As for these two bottles of blood, and even the previous "Ghost Shark" and "Water Abyss Flood Dragon", Song Yan knew they weren't top-grade demon blood, only considered decent in a small place like the Three Kingdoms, but he had no other choice; he couldn't achieve a "perfect enhancement of the realm".

The two bottles of essence blood slipped into his sleeve, quickly digesting.

Lines of information, Dao insights appeared.

[You activate the "Profound Sword Scripture", absorbing Profound Qi to contain and digest the "White Bone Demon" blood, while simultaneously converting Profound Qi into Sword Qi, nurturing the Sword Qi with blood.]

[In the fourth month, you absorbed 60 strands of Profound Qi, digested one strand of "White Bone Demon" blood, which fully converted into Sword Qi.]

[In the sixteenth year, you absorbed 3000 strands of Profound Qi, which successfully transformed into Sword Qi. The "White Bone Demon" blood has integrated into the Right Palace of your Crimson Palace, entwining with the "Corpse-Eating Wolf" blood.]

[The Sword Qi interacts with the "White Bone Demon" blood, and you grasped a trace of special Sword Qi—Bone-Eroding Sword Qi.]

[This Sword Qi contains corrosive poison, capable of decomposing flesh and bones in an instant.]

'Cultivation speed has become much faster, even faster than when I was on Copper Sparrow Island.'

In the Land of Mortals, it would take thousands of years to successfully cultivate, but here it only took sixteen years... And that's without using any additional resources.

Song Yan mused silently, then felt a bit speechless.

'This Bone-Eroding Sword Qi is indeed a good move for eliminating traces, but what use is it to me now?'

He sensed this Bone-Eroding Sword Qi.

It is well known that while killing is easy, concealing the body isn't. Having Bone-Eroding Sword Qi while traveling in Jianghu makes things much more convenient.

But now, it was useless.

But that's alright; with the "White Bone Demon Blood" positioned in the Right Palace, he felt his power and Qi Blood speed had increased significantly.

Following the same method, Song Yan positioned the "Wind Profound Crane" blood in the Left Palace and realized a special Sword Qi named "Wind-Blending Sword Qi".

This Sword Qi's effect is: the body blends with the sword, the sword transforms into a long wind. The wind is not to be cut, therefore the body as well.

Once used, Song Yan can be in a state like the "wind" for a short time, simply put, the opponent's attack can change his direction and position, but cannot harm him.

Unless the opponent suddenly realizes the mystery of this move, stops trying to cut, and instead tries to trap.

Once trapped, the "wind" would naturally stop, and Song Yan would naturally reveal himself.

This Sword Qi is much better for him at this moment compared to the "Bone-Eroding Sword Qi", especially when combined with the "Splitting Sword Qi", it's like having an extra trump card.

And with the ninth blood entering his body, Song Yan felt unprecedented strength, a comprehensive sensation of powerfulness both physically and mentally, as if standing at the peak of his power.

But, "standing at the peak" also implies there's no further progress?

'Indeed, I still need the Profound Heart.

By borrowing the heavens and earth, to nurture the Divine Soul, only then can I break the realm.'

Song Yan sighed softly, then closed his eyes, testing slightly before getting up.

It was now noon, theoretically the calmest moment in the Evil Land.

By now, he had reached the peak he could achieve.

Thus, this was the moment for him to act.

If he waited any longer, his increase in strength might be detected by Zhang Han, causing him to miss out on a slight advantage. Though trivial, sometimes the slightest advantage decides victory or defeat.

If he could gain a little more advantage, even if it took several days, nights, or even months or years, Song Yan would be willing to do it.

He retrieved the strongest Shadow Puppet into his body, honestly transforming into the strongest form of the Hundred Forms Demon Body, containing it with an illusion, then walked to the courtyard.

He knew Zhang Han was watching him.

So, he shouted, "Zhang Han, I want to give it a try."

"Please."

A faint voice fell from the sky, neither rushed nor slow, neither proud nor dismissive.

Song Yan squinted, suddenly said, "Zhang Han, you as a Purple Mansion Realm expert, must control yourself well.

I'm just a mere Crimson Palace Realm, a far cry from you.

If you severely injure me, that would completely cut off my hope of living.

Rather than falling into the hands of the Mountain and Sea Demon Race and suffering humiliation, it's better to self-detonate like Gu Huangzi, dying with body and soul gone!

By then, not only will you fail to account to the Mountain and Sea Demon Race, but also lose the opportunity to learn the Paper House making, digest Changwang Tiger Blood and other secret techniques from me!

Think clearly about how to act!!"

As soon as the word "act" fell, the Puppet Sect Leader in a Profound Robe hesitated no more, rolled his left sleeve, causing the sizeable Paper House to distort and elongate swiftly, like a roll of white smoke retracting into his sleeve.

One push of his right hand, the rapidly swirling tornado-like wind and snow Evil Qi paused in the void as if time stopped, then rumbled forward, causing the Evil Tide Skill to activate, instantly turning the Evil Qi into a tidal wave, clearing an area in front of Song Yan.

However, the direction he pushed wasn't northeast, but... southeast!

Previously, Zhang Han said, "If he wants to reach the core of the Three Kingdoms Profound Vein, he needs to move a bit more northeast." During this time, he perceived that the Evil Qi in the east was indeed denser, but couldn't confirm if it was northeast or southeast.

So, he pushed directly towards the southeast instead of the northeast.

Because he believed in Zhang Han, just as he believed in himself.

He trusted that he would never generously disclose the correct location to the opponent, even when he was sure to win, so... Zhang Han wouldn't either!
