I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 440: Chapter 339: Kuafu Chasing the Sun

”This is...”

Kuafu stared in amazement at the scene before him.

”The Ancient Resentful Sunset Array.”

As the Ancient Resentful Sunset Array took shape, pale golden battle spirits began to coalesce one by one.

”Snakes?” Seeing the appearance of these battle spirits, Kuafu was even more astonished, casting a deep glance at Han Zhan.

This person could not possibly be a Wizard because he had never heard of anyone using the sound of a zither to form an array and then summoning countless golden snakes from it.

It was somewhat reminiscent of the abilities of the Fu Xi Clan.

However, the Fu Xi Clan had been in hiding for years, so how could they possibly enter the sacred land of the Jiuli Race?

Unable to figure it out, it didn’t stop Han Zhan’s next move.

He manipulated the Yexieqi Snake Race constantly emerging from the Ancient Resentful Sunset Array, directing them to surge in all directions.

When searching for something, the simplest method is to rely on numbers, and these low-tier Izaki Young Snake Battle Spirits were the best helpers at the moment.

Billions of Izaki Snake Battle Spirits sent ripples across the Sea of Blood in just an instant, the aftershocks lingering for a long time.

For a snake, swimming in water is even faster than slithering on land.

Before long, good news returned.

Han Zhan opened his eyes within the array.

”Found it?” Kuafu asked excitedly, seeing Han Zhan’s action.

He had initially lost hope in this Blood Pool expedition, but Han Zhan’s techniques reignited a flicker of expectation.

”Found it.”

Han Zhan nodded.

”But...” He hesitated before speaking, ”but I found two trait materials.”

Two trait materials?!

Isn’t that better? It’s an unexpected surprise!

Kuafu couldn’t care about anything else at this point, speaking faster, ”But what? Tell me the locations of these two trait materials, and once we leave the Blood Pool, I will surely reward you handsomely!”

”However, they are far apart.”

Because of his excitement, Kuafu had indeed forgotten one thing, and that was time.

The longer one stays in the Blood Pool, the higher the chance of encountering pure pollution.

Han Zhan hadn’t forgotten this, so he hesitated at first.

”At our current pace, reaching each location would take at least half an hour.”

”The risk of pure pollution...”

Before Han Zhan could finish, with a clatter, Kuafu’s hand, submerged in the Blood Sea, rose up again, interrupting him.

”Tell me the locations.” Kuafu’s tone was calm, unlike his earlier excitement; he must have calmed down and made a deliberate decision.

”I know my opportunities are dwindling.”

”If I can’t break through in this Blood Pool exploration, even if I can cling to life, how much longer can I survive?”

”Instead, I’d rather gamble one last try, take one last chance.”

Kuafu’s words were somewhat pessimistic, so much so that Han Zhan found them strange.

Clearly, the Jiuli Race still existed, yet there was a sense of impending doom—as if Kuafu knew something?

Despite this, Han Zhan still told Kuafu the specific locations of the other two trait materials.

Meanwhile, two Yexieqi Snake Race Battle Spirits climbed up Kuafu’s arm to his shoulder.

”I can guide you using them.”

Han Zhan’s voice came through the Yexieqi Snake Battle Spirits, reaching Kuafu’s ear.

Kuafu nodded, raising a booming voice filled with resolute determination, ”Are you ready? Let your snakes cling tightly; I’m going all out now.”

As soon as Kuafu finished speaking, blood-colored dark lines visible to the naked eye began to spread across his blood embryo surface.

These blood-colored dark lines appeared as the originally thirty-zhang-tall giant began expanding again!

Tier Two!

The transformation of the Jiuli Race actually had a second tier?

Han Zhan watched in shock at the scene in front of him.

After Kuafu’s second transformation, his massive body reached at least a height of one hundred zhang, making Han Zhan appear insignificant like an actual ant at his feet.

The hundred-zhang-tall Kuafu panted heavily.

Maintaining this second form was no easy feat for him.

The blood-colored sea that used to submerge most of his body now only reached his shin.

With determined eyes, Kuafu looked ahead and stepped forward once more.

As he lifted his foot, a colossal wave surged within the Blood Sea, capable of submerging a small boat, a reef, or even an island in one sweep; yet to the giant Kuafu, it was just a slightly larger wave.

This time, his speed reached an extreme.

Han Zhan was left far behind, watching Kuafu’s towering figure as he braved the giant waves, striding away step by step.

Farther and farther away.

Fortunately, the two Yexieqi Snake Battle Spirits on Kuafu’s shoulder shared their vision with Han Zhan, keeping him informed of what would happen next.

In the shared vision of the battle spirits:

Kuafu ran swiftly across the Blood Sea, accompanied by giant waves and fierce winds, leaving everything behind.

A dazzling golden sun rose not far ahead.

The sun was blinding, suspended high in the sky, rendering one of the Izaki Young Snake Battle Spirits momentarily blind with just a glance.

Kuafu seemed unaware of the blinding light. In his swift run, he entered the zone of this trait material in an instant, stretching out his arms as if to embrace the sun, reaching for the trait material in the sky.

His open arms wrapped around the sun.

The blazing white light vanished.

Kuafu remained in the same embracing posture, motionless.

Half a minute passed.

Kuafu bent over in pain, hugging his arms tightly while crouching down, a hoarse ”ha ha” sound escaping from his throat continuously.

Han Zhan saw that Kuafu’s blood embryo had turned completely black, like ink.

The next moment, he struggled to stand up.

”Tell me... the location of the last trait material.”

Kuafu’s voice transitioned from struggle to calm.

”Your judgment is flawed.”

”Fusing two trait materials is already your limit; if the third fusion fails, you will definitely die.”

With his keen eyesight, Han Zhan naturally noticed this.

”Give up,” he advised through the Izaki Young Snake Battle Spirit.

”Give up? No, I will not give up.”

Stubbornly, Kuafu raised his head. Though his blackened blood embryo obscured his features, his resentment and determination were palpable.

”My life has been a constant pursuit, pursuing power, pursuing strength, never stopping.”

”Tell me, where is the third trait material located!”
