"That amount of resources is great, Thank you, Rias~"
"1st Level of Sky Profound Realm, finally… A barely acceptable level of profound strength."
"We have enough resources to support your cultivation all the way to Peak Sovereign Profound~, Why don't you continue raising your cultivation base?"
"That's enough for now, save the rest of the resources for our future recruits. If I keep doing this, I'll empty the inheritance treasury."
For the past two weeks, Kaido had consumed another 10 drops of phoenix blood and had enhanced the phoenix bloodline within his body to an unprecedented level.
He also consumed dozens of Divine Phoenix Pellets and 100,000-year-old phoenix herbs all allowing his cultivation base to obtain huge breakthroughs from the True Profound level all the way to the Sky Profound Realm!
Kaido finally got a taste of relying on resources in order to raise his cultivation base.
After all, he was no longer as poor as before but had an entire legacy ground as private property!
Kaido opened his eyes and sensed the changes in his body.
In addition to the new abilities he unlocked through Devil Fruits, he obtained an ability related to profound energy.
As soon as he reached the Sky Profound Realm, he instantly understood the [Profound Floating Technique] and felt as if he could walk in the sky easily, without relying on any abilities from the Devil Fruits and using only his own body.
...
Kaido walked out of the house he had been inside for the past weeks in a closed cultivation session and took a look at the situation that had changed inside this village.
For example, everyone in the village, old or young, has a bright smile on their face, unlike before.
After all, Kaido had burned the curse that had destroyed their hopes in the cultivation world for thousands of years.
Since he dispelled that curse using Phoenix flames, the members of the Phoenix Clan had regained their cultivation ability and most of them had a sudden breakthrough to the Nascent Profound Realm.
This completely made Kaido won their loyalty.
When they saw Kaido come out, they bowed to their new Lord with steady and unwavering expressions on their faces.
"We salute Lord Phoenix, Kaido-Sama!"
Their common voice echoed in the sky of the village like an organized army.
This was an outstanding feature that most of them had already reached the Nascent Profound Realm. And this was not an ordinary thing.
"That's good... I'll leave soon."
"Feng Baichuan you'll be in charge of this village until I return… As I told you earlier, once a week you need to send one young man or young woman to the Trial Hall… The trials are no longer as frightening as before. "
"This is understood, Lord Phoenix! Your requests are orders!"
Feng Baichuan obediently replied and left to prepare for Lord's departure.
After all, his only role had become to serve Kaido because the true lord of this place had become Kaido since that day when he had shown his phoenix form.
...
"Cang Yue... I'll leave this place..."
"Ah? Lord Kaido… S-Sorry about that."
Cang Yue bowed to Kaido when he found her playing with the kids Feng Zu'er and Feng Xian'er instead of focusing on her cultivation as he ordered her.
The two kids behind her shivered when they saw Kaido's frightening figure... Although they knew that the man before them was the Reincarnation of the Phoenix, the fear of him was still ingrained in their hearts.
...
In another house, Xia Yuanba unlike Cang Yue was cultivating with a stiff expression on his face.
Since he awakened his unique profound veins, his cultivation base has been rising as a rocket.
He was now a 10th level expert in the Earth Profound Realm, and that was in just a couple of weeks since he had awakened his profound veins as he was in the Elementary Profound Realm back then!
All this in order to become the Beast Emperor, the target set by his master.
The Loyalty Curse was operating abnormally... Although the hosts truly hated their Master, the Curse worked toward the true meaning of Loyalty.
It could be said that their hatred towards Kaido at this point simply made no sense because they simply couldn't escape the curse of the Devil Fruit just as the Devil Fruit users from the Pirate World couldn't escape the curse of the sea.
They can reduce the effects of the curse a little bit if they mastered the Haki... But that's what they can't do, unfortunately.
Their fate was already decided the moment they ate the Devil Fruit.
Fortunately for them, Kaido reduced the curse from enslavement to loyalty only, or else their fate would have been much worse.
...
"After Yuanba breakthrough the Sky Profound Realm, return up to the Imperial Palace and take control of it for me… In return, I'll save your royal father when I return."
"Yuanba will be of help to you, with his current strength even the throne can't threaten your safety."
"This is your first task as my subordinates… To subject the entire Blue Wind Empire to my rule!"
"Is that clear?!"
"Yes, Master!"
Kneeling, Cang Yue and Yuanba answered in a clear voice.
At this point, Kaido's orders seemed like heavenly orders, and they weren't able to oppose them even if they desperately wanted to.
"That's fine… Everything will be fine… With this, your empire will be the first to merge with my Beast God Realm… It will be the capital of the Divine Kingdom in the future."
"You should be proud of this, my Cang Yue~"
Kaido grabbed Cang Yue's face and whispered sweetly... This beautiful girl was rebellious even when she was so obedient, but the day he defeated her in the bed wasn't too far away.
...
Kaido transformed into an oriental dragon and flew at his fastest speed toward his next target:
Wasteland of Death!
The Azure Dragon God Legacy Ground!
While Yun Che had just arrived in New Moon City, he was shocked to learn that his dear friend Xia Yuanba had been kidnapped by a giant blue dragon.
"It's that damned dragon!!!! I will definitely kill you!!!!"
Yun Che shrieked harshly when making sure that Kaido had kidnapped Yuanba... Yun Che was a very spiteful person so he would definitely kill his enemy.
"Heh~ With your current strength, he will crush you with just a finger… Not to mention his mysterious identity… You better be wary of that dragon."
Jasmine said with disdain mixed with a kind of deep concern.
