Chapter 521: 294 Headshot_2

Fang Zhixing responded promptly, "I need to keep one myself, but I can sell the other one to you for cheap. Just give me something for it."

Fan Qiulai replied gravely, "A Fifth Level Treasure naturally requires an exchange of something of the same level."

He pondered and asked, "You mentioned last time that you’re looking for Five Elements Treasures, right? What are you missing now?"

Fang Zhixing quickly did the math.

The materials he already had were: Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, Giant Snake Thunder Horn, Xuanhuang Stone, and Fire Vermilion Bird!

What’s missing from the Five Elements is water!

Fan Qiulai nodded and said, "Alright, brother, give me some time, and I’ll definitely find a Fifth Level Water Attribute Treasure for you."

Fang Zhixing’s spirits lifted; that would be wonderful!

After they came to an agreement, Fan Qiulai quickly took out three treasures.

The first was a pitch-black lotus flower.

At first glance, it looked like it was carved from Black Jade.

However, upon handling it, Fang Zhixing realized it was indeed a plant, specifically the Black Jade Lotus.

The second treasure was even less remarkable in appearance, looking no different from a common roadside weed.

Who would have thought it was the "Soul Resurrection Grass," capable of bringing the dead back to life?

It is said that if anyone’s body is properly preserved within seven days of death,

simply burning a stalk of Soul Resurrection Grass next to the corpse can summon back the person’s soul and spirit, reviving them.

The third treasure was a stone, entirely red, and when heated by fire, the flames would take on the shape of the Vermilion Bird, a sight immensely mystical.

Fang Zhixing felt utterly delighted and tucked the three treasures into his embrace.

[4, Collect 1 Black Jade Lotus (Completed)]

[5, Gather 1 stalk of Soul Resurrection Grass (Completed)]

...

[1, Collect one of each Five Elements Attribute Treasures (4/5)]

Fang Zhixing glanced at the System Panel.

At this very moment, the Full Level Conditions for the Third Layer of the Mad Blood Tyrant were completed from one to five, missing only the sixth condition.

And the sixth condition required Fang Zhixing to observe the portraits of three Tyrants or to read about their deeds.

Fang Zhixing had wanted to fulfill condition six for a while.

Because this task seemed the easiest.

But on the contrary!

This world didn’t have historical records like the "Zizhi Tongjian" or the "Twenty-Four Histories" of Chinese civilization that allowed one to learn about what had happened in the past or to know who were the Tyrants.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had no tradition of compiling the history of former dynasties.

In other words, the history of previous dynasties is a blank slate.

As long as the Great Zhou Dynasty exists, the Emperor would not acknowledge any own tyrants, nor would he degrade former Emperors to the status of Tyrants.

This resulted in Fang Zhixing being unable to research history, nor to know who the Tyrants were.

Fang Zhixing took the opportunity to ask, "Old Brother Fan, do you know anything about the previous dynasty?"

"The previous dynasty?"

Fan Qiulai paused, then shook his head with a smile, saying, "Who could be clear about matters a thousand years ago?"

Unwilling to give up, Fang Zhixing asked, "Then, do you know which Emperors in history were infamous Tyrants?"

Fan Qiulai blinked and spread his hands, "Royal affairs? How dare I meddle? Even if someone was a Tyrant, would I dare to say so?"

Hearing this, Fang Zhixing smiled helplessly, stood up and took his leave.

Soon, he returned to Jun Yao and Xigou.

Xigou welcomed him and instinctively glanced at Fang Zhixing’s System Panel.

"Wow, only the sixth condition left!"

Xigou was thrilled and urged, "Hurry up, this task isn’t hard, right?"

Fang Zhixing rolled his eyes and explained the difficulty of this task.

Upon hearing this, Xigou was also speechless and clicked his tongue, "To think about it, we really know nothing about the history of this world."

Fang Zhixing closed his eyes in contemplation, his thoughts churning.

After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, picked up a branch and began writing and drawing on the ground.

Xigou peeked over and saw Fang Zhixing writing on the ground:

Chi You!

King Zhou of Shang!

Xia Jie!

...

Xigou blinked in astonishment and asked, "What are you writing all this for?"

With a slight upturn of his lips, Fang Zhixing smiled and said, "Exploiting a bug; the system only mentioned Tyrants without specifying they had to be the Tyrants of this world."

Xigou shivered with realization.

Goodness!

This loophole was incredibly cunning!

Xigou had never considered that Tyrants from Earth could be used this way?

Would the system recognize it?

Just as he thought this, Fang Zhixing wrote down the names "King You of Zhou, Qin Shi Huang."

His System Panel suddenly lit up.

[6, Observe the portraits or read about the deeds of at least 3 Tyrants (Completed)]

[Conditions for reaching Full Level of the Third Layer of the Mad Blood Tyrant have been met, would you like to upgrade?]

"Holy moly!"

Xigou was dumbfounded; "This actually works!"

"Haha, great!" Fang Zhixing was ecstatic.

What seemed to be a vexing and insolvable problem was, in fact, unexpectedly simple when looked at from a different angle.

"Upgrade!"

Fang Zhixing sat cross-legged, calmed his mind, and with a mere thought,

suddenly, vast memories and insights of cultivation struck his forehead like a heavy punch.

Fang Zhixing’s mind boomed, and he lapsed into a dazed state.

It was as though he was dreaming.

In the dream, he knelt before a guillotine with a dog’s head design, a beam of light shone above his head.

Darkness engulfed the surroundings.

Yet next to the guillotine, a burly man stood, his face obscured in the shadows.

Suddenly, the burly man pushed Fang Zhixing’s head down onto the guillotine.

Fang Zhixing became infuriated and resisted with all his might.

However, something happened, and his body wouldn’t respond at all — he couldn’t muster any strength.

The burly man easily stuffed his head into the guillotine.

The icy blade loomed close, bringing a nightmarish sense of oppression.

Fang Zhixing felt an instinctual fear, panic, angst, and despair!
