Beginning with the Ubume Bird Chapter 261

Chapter 261: Chapter 1 Settlement

“You little rascal!”

Heizai jolted awake, his eyes snapping open!

He was one of Tianbao's trusted followers, an excellent swimmer. That day someone attempted to assassinate Tianbao on a brothel boat and he had slaughtered them all cleanly.

At that time, Tianbao had the bodies thrown into the sea and ordered him and Zhang Wei to secretly watch, to see which faction would come to collect the bodies of the assassins. After several days of surveillance and many setbacks, Zhang Wei had lost his life, but they had made a shocking discovery!

“The Tianbo Division! It's the Tianbo Division!”

He shouted vehemently, his rugged face covered in sweat and tears.

The room was usually attended to, but by chance, Zheng Xiu'er was reading in front of the courtyard. When Heizai woke up, she was the first to enter.

Before Xiu'er could speak, Heizai saw the girl and grabbed her wrist.

“I've found out, it's the Tianbo Division!”

Xiu'er was startled at first but then composed herself, “Brother Heizai, have a drink of water first.”

As she spoke, she turned to get the teapot.

His eyes red, Heizai threw off the blanket and sat up, “The ones who tried to assassinate Tianbao were Cai Qian's men! Madam Shi was injured, it was the Cai Clan taking advantage of the chaos to attack!

Xiu'er's pupils shrank.

“I heard them clearly, they called him Elder Yan Laoba!”

“You have completed this Yan Fu incident and an additional five special Yan Fu incidents! Total Yan Fu incidents completed: 10.”

“The evaluation for completing this Yan Fu incident is: Great Fortune (At the pinnacle!)”

“The items you will bring out are: Taiping Wenshu*Yinwan, Azure Phoenix Sword, Qingshui Luye Spear, Zijin Tuo Lani Sutra Quilt. Fire Silkworm Silk Soft Armor.”

The settlement begins!

Li Yan closed his eyes, his body gradually breaking into points of light. Those few items were his spoils from scouring Guangdong, half of which he had shared with Cha Xiaodao.

Light and shadow intermingled…

A ray of sunlight pierced through the azure sea.

Barefoot on the mast, a boy grinned, revealing a dazzling missing tooth.

Brilliant flames, swords and spears ready.

An arm barred a large ship with red sails, waves breaking against his trouser legs.

Cai Qian sat relaxed at the round table, the Demon Thief's face ice cold, while Xiu'er looked around cautiously.

The accountant snapped the abacus, military supply bills worth millions of taels of silver flying chaotically.

Boats roiling, sails crisscrossing. Shouts of killing thundered.

“Siren Algae Bacterium” permeated everywhere, yellow gunpowder boiling the South Seas.

The colossal “Wrath” crushed everything in its path, a black tsunami sweeping across, the heavens and earth changing color.

Thunder roared!

The image finally paused on a golden tentacle thrusting into the clouds!

Still in the hall with the black pillars, neither Cha Xiaodao nor Li Yan spoke, both busy reviewing their spoils.

“Fruit naming, Xiu'er.”

Li Yan thus said.

“Walking state within certain conditions, this repair will not cost any points.”

Report of the settlement follows:

The right to enter the “Xiu'er Fruit” at any time.

Great Fortune evaluation settlement points: 600 points

Purchasing authority quota: 250% (At the pinnacle!)

You exchanged for silver, obtaining a total of 10,000 Yan Fu points! (Reached limit, this fruit's precious item exchange has reached its limit, cooldown ends in two months for another exchange.)

Deducting 1000 points for the Naval Battle Specialization solidification. (After solidification, Naval Battle Specialization merged into Ancient Martial Arts Specialization, comprehensive value calculated, actual effect remains unchanged.)

Current Yan Fu points: 10,086 points.

Special reward for completing the Yan Fu incident, you will randomly draw an item containing the power of the Lord of the Xiang River.

Having completed six Yan Fu incidents within this fruit, you will have six chances to draw.

Li Yan's throat moved, but he did not start drawing right away, instead saving these six chances for last.

Your gains from this Yan Fu incident are as follows:

One, Personal category

None

Two, Item category

Azure Phoenix Sword: Sharpness 70, Trait: Evil-Conquering.

Qingshui Luye Spear: Sharpness 85.

Fire Silkworm Silk Soft Armor: As light as if it's non-existent, yet incredibly tough, cold weapons with sharpness below 25 cannot cut through it.

Zijin Tuo Lani Sutra Quilt: Prolonged wrapping while sleeping prolongs life and prevents all illnesses.

Three, Secret Treasure category

Mining rights: [Yan Fu Secret Treasure*Mage Tool]!

After each return, purchasing rights will randomly refresh to include one “Mage Tool”. The contents will be one of the following: Longevity Seed, Xinghua Long-life Noodles. Longjing Copper Talisman, Golden Steed Iron Horse. White Lake Holy Spring, Heavenly Consort's Eyebrow Pencil (small chance), Taoist Priest's Kerchief (small chance).

Access lasted for five Yan Fu incidents.

The current refresh of Mage Tool is: Longjing Copper Talisman.

Longjing Copper Talisman: A consumable, it can refine any exotic item born from the “Xiu'er Fruit”, and after refinement, the item will be more suitable for use in Yan Fu!

Costs 7 Yan Fu points.

Li Yan purchased it without hesitation.

These above were Li Yan's gains.

Afterward, he skimmed through the purchasing rights for this time and suddenly realized that at the bottom of each category, there was a line of vivid red text clearly written as “Summit Reward”.

Take the essence category for example.

Essence category: 1,

[Level Four Ancient Martial Arts Combat Essence (Spear Skill)]: Enhances close-combat specialization by 5%

Requires 150 Yan Fu points, limited to one only.

2, [Level Three Cannon Operation Essence]

3, [Level Three Sword Skill Essence]

4…

Finally, the Summit Reward!

[Demon Mech Magic Essence]: Enhances Demon Mech specialization by 5%,

Requires 100 Yan Fu points, limited to ten only

Remark: “Rare specializations” will grant walkers more specialized personal abilities and are also a prerequisite for unleashing the full power of certain heritages.

Because he had ample points this time, after contemplating, Li Yan not only acquired the [Level Four Spear Skill Essence] but also learned the Summit Reward [Demon Mech Magic].

Li Yan's specializations thus became Ancient Martial Arts 98% (merged with Naval Battle), Thermal Weapons 38%, Military Skill 50% (merged with Horsemanship), Demon Mech Magic 50%.

Behind were the “Victory-Defying Items”, roughly a dozen of them. After browsing through, Li Yan felt that the following few would be useful, so he straightforwardly purchased them.

[Witch Poison Doll]: Write the name and date of birth on a piece of paper, pierce the paper and the doll together with a needle, and it can plunder their consciousness, making them completely obey the user's command. (Not all people are susceptible to this, please use it on ordinary people.)

Costs 500 Yan Fu points.

[Red Water Essence]: A consumable, it can cause a small-scale tsunami.

Costs 1000 Yan Fu points.

Summit Reward!

[Victory-Defying Coin]: A beloved item of Madam Shi, the wearer can break all Victory-Defying witchcraft. Any witch whose cultivation is not as high as Madam Shi's will be backlash.

Costs 500 Yan Fu points.

There were many more miscellaneous items afterwards, including ships, cannons, and treasures, but now that Li Yan was more or less in possession of the Lantau Island and Mage Island, he wasn't too concerned about them.

In the end, it was the personal enhancement category, as well as the Summit Reward, that piqued Li Yan's interest.

Skill Visualization category:

[Flying Carp Three Moves]

Each visualization costs 10 points (significantly reduced for walkers through Zhao Xiaoyi's explanation)

Personal category:

1, Qigong

Costs 300 Yan Fu points, reaching mastery allows the casting of sword light, has significant power.

2, Taiping Wenshu spell: Randomly obtain one Taiping Wenshu spell.

Costs 500 Yan Fu points

3, Fiery Cauldron Pill: Increases the Yan Fu Heritage Awakening Degree by 10%.

Costs 1000 Yan Fu points

Remark: Consumed by living beings, grants them sentience, belonging to the Fiery Cauldron Species.

4, Evil God Wupozi Bloodline: Randomly obtain one Wupozi divine skill

Remark: Please note, bloodline divine skills have exclusivity and uniqueness, and they conflict with blood-related heritages!

Costs 1500 Yan Fu points

Summit Reward!

Quanlang Sea Ghost: Acquire the state “Quanlang Sea Ghost”

Costs 2000 Yan Fu points

This enhancement requires bathing in the Nine Heavens Medicinal Bath, please return to your personal room for the procedure.

Given the clear situation, Li Yan didn't think too long.

He completely skipped the Taiping Document, Qigong was useless, and he wasn't interested in the Wupozi bloodline; he finally decided to purchase the Fiery Cauldron Pill and the bathing medicinal bath for Quanlang Sea Ghost.

The Fiery Cauldron Pill was a thumb-sized, scorching gold color, Li Yan played with it for a while before swallowing it whole.

A thunderous crashing sound emanated from within Li Yan's body. The clear chirping of birds persisted for a long time.

Gu Huo Bird Spirit 66%!

Only 3% away from the second peak breakthrough!

Lastly, was how to use the Longjing Copper Talisman. Its description was rather abstract, but Li Yan without much thought knew how to use the Longjing Copper Talisman.

Refine, Taiping Wenshu*Yinwan!
