Chapter 1956: Gods Of The Four Directions

Zhao Hai looked at the black tortoise and said, "Senior, I have no issues taking on the inheritance of the Water God. But I have something to tell you. Before coming here, I already obtained the vermillion bird stamp. At that time, the vermillion bird was injured and has been subdued by me. This allowed me to acquire the Fire God's inheritance. If you accept this, then I have no other words to say."

Hearing Zhao Hai, the black tortoise stared. Then its complexion changed as it asked, "You obtained the inheritance of the Fire God? The Vermillion Bird Stamp? Firegod City?"

The Black Tortoise said a lot of things in a row. Zhao Hai knew that it was excited, so he nodded and said, "Yes. When I was in the lower realm, I acquired Firegod City. At that time, only a remnant spirit was left in the vermillion bird stamp. Because of this, I'm only able to use Firegod City in its simplest way. If you still want me to inherit the Water God's will, then I wouldn't decline."

"Hahaha. It's Heaven's Will! Young man, are you thinking that the Water God and Fire God's inheritance are not compatible? In fact, you're wrong. Young man, before I tell you everything, can you show me the vermillion bird stamp?"

Zhao Hai nodded, he waved his hand and took out the vermillion bird stamp. Looking at the vermillion bird stamp, the Black Tortoise nodded and said, "It really is the vermillion bird stamp. But there is something wrong with your method. Alright, young man, take it away. It won't be able to handle this place for too long." Zhao Hai nodded and put the vermillion bird stamp away. He could also feel that the vermillion bird stamp was very uncomfortable the moment he took it out.

When Zhao Hai received the vermillion bird stamp, the black tortoise nodded and said, "Young man, you don't have to be afraid. The vermillion bird stamp and the black tortoise stamp belong to the Fire God and the Water God respectively. Being gods of the four directions, they're good friends. So there's no need for you to worry. "

Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at the black tortoise and said, "Senior, if what you said is true, then the Gods of the Four Directions should be powerful beings. So why would the vermillion bird stamp fall into the lower realms? When I found Firegod City, it was destroyed. Who has the ability to damage the vermillion bird stamp?"

The black tortoise sighed and said, "Young man, I really want to tell you, but I have no memory of these things. My spirit isn't complete and I have lost most of my memories. Right now, the only thing I know is how to operate the black tortoise stamp and the Crystal City, nothing else. But I have a feeling that as long as you inherit the will of all four gods, then you will know what happened."

"Young man, I have to ask you for one thing, if you find the other two stamps, please put them together with the vermillion bird stamp and the black tortoise stamp. Then you should also get the Emperor Qilin stamp. Once all is gathered, you will benefit a lot. As for how huge the benefit is, I don't know. Nobody has combined all five stamps together. As for how to use the stamps, there's no need to worry. As long as you obtain the method to control the black tortoise stamp, you should also comprehend how to control the vermillion bird stamp. Now, young man, open your mind. Let me pass onto you the method to control the black tortoise stamp."

Zhao Hai nodded and opened his mind. The reason he was so bold was because he couldn't feel any hostility from the black tortoise. Zhao Hai believed in his instinct. He believed that the black tortoise wouldn't harm him.

Sure enough, just as Zhao Hai opened his mind, the black tortoise moved and rushed towards him. As it was rushing forward, the black tortoise shrank in size. By the time it was in front of Zhao Hai, it was already palm-sized. Then the black tortoise slowly sank into Zhao Hai's head.

Zhao Hai felt a cool energy infiltrating his mind. Not only did the energy make him feel comfortable, it also improved his spiritual force. There was also a lot of information that entered his mind. Fortunately, Zhao Hai was used to sudden transfers of information. As he received the information, he also began sorting them out.

After a period of time, Zhao Hai was finally able to receive all of the information. He wasn't in a hurry to comprehend all of it. Although it contained methods to control Crystal City, it wasn't an urgent matter. Zhao Hai would slowly digest the information once he goes back.

With an intention, Zhao Hai withdrew his thoughts from the black tortoise stamp. At the same time, he reappeared in the main hall of the city. Looking at the black tortoise stamp, Zhao Hai let out a long breath. Then he picked up the stamp. Zhao Hai also absorbed Crystal City into the stamp. He was now ready to return.

Zhao Hai looked at the lake and smiled faintly. He believed that the lake would return to normal before long. After all, the special situation of the lake was caused by Crystal City. Now that he took it away, Moon Bathed Lake should return to normal.

The situation with Moon Bathed Lake was different from Inferno Valley. Inferno Valley was able to form a heart of earth fire. So even if he took Firegod City away, Inferno Valley was still able to produce intense heat. There were no heart of water in the Moon Bathed Lake.

Seeing that there was nothing else around, Zhao Hai used his portable transmission formation and returned to Hengdao City. After arriving at the city, Zhao Hai felt his communication token fluctuate. After taking the call, Zhao Hai saw that it was Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng's expression was anxious as he asked, "Little Hai, where are you? Are you fine?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "First Senior Brother, I'm fine. I'm currently in Hengdao City. I just returned."

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Feng felt relieved. He was only a bit worried when he talked to Zhao Hai the night before. But when he went to Shangshan City, he had someone inquire about the task of collecting nine core lotus seeds. Upon hearing the details of the task, Zhang Feng paled. He was afraid that something would happen to Zhao Hai. Upon confirming that Zhao Hai was fine and had just returned, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Feng nodded and said, "How did the task go?"

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "It's complete. Moreover, I was able to get a rich harvest. I'll have to go into seclusion after returning."

Hearing that Zhao Hai wanted to close up, Zhang Feng was happy, "Alright. Then come back as soon as possible. There's no need for you to worry about other things."

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I'm going to seclude here in Hengdao City. It's safer for me here. You can also come here, the environment here is very good."

Zhang Feng didn't oppose this, he nodded and said, "Alright. You close up in Hengdao City." Zhao Hai nodded and then ended the call. Then he went to hand over his task. In addition to 50 impression points and an excellent rating, Zhao Hai was also able to get several bottles of pills and some artifacts. After that, he went to find a place to seclude in.

All residences in Hengdao City belonged to the Tyrant Blade Sect. If you want to rent a house, then you would need to go to the Tyrant Blade Sect's branch hall. Naturally, this didn't exclude Zhao Hai.

The Tyrant Blade Sect's branch hall was the biggest building in Hengdao City. The entire building was ten stories tall with each floor being ten meters high. This made the entire building 100 meters tall.

What made the branch look special was its shape. The building looked like a sword aimed at the sky. It was too eye-catching.

Naturally, this building was only a part of the entire branch of the Tyrant Blade Sect. This building was used to handle tasks as well as a place for people to rest. People with status don't stay in this building. Instead, they stay inside a courtyard behind the branch.

As he stood in front of the Tyrant Blade Sect's branch, Zhao Hai could see the imposing building sticking out. He couldn't help but smile. As its name suggests, the sect was indeed domineering.

Zhao Hai entered the building and went over to a counter. Like other branches, there were three counters that handled different matters. However, these counters were much bigger compared to the others.

Moreover, there were more people coming in and out of the building. Tasks were accepted and handed in, and items were traded. The place looked bustling.

Zhao Hai didn't get in line but instead walked straight towards the counter. This attracted angry gazes from those who were in the queue. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the Tyrant Blade Set's branch hall, someone would have shouted at Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai didn't care about these people. He smiled at the person opposite the counter and said, "Good day. I want to look for a place to rent in Hengdao City. Where do I go?"

Zhao Hai's words caused the floor to turn silent. Everyone who came to hand in their tasks stared at Zhao Hai. Even those from the Tyrant Blade Sect looked towards Zhao Hai. All of them looked at him as though they didn't understand what he said.
