Chapter 721: Chapter 296 [Scarlet Sacrifice] (6k)_4
"Hmm, Ju has expended too much this time, so I’ll do it myself!"
Saying this, Bai Yi teleported away, disappearing from where he stood.

"Finally, my efforts to master my abilities during this time have not been in vain...
Even so, I almost failed, but at last, I’ve gained the power of the 4th Rank!
Praise the Lord of Red Moon!"
Orika opened his tightly shut eyes in the ascension room, excitement overflowing in his gaze.
His pursuit of power was no less than Harry’s; otherwise, he wouldn’t have become friends with Harry.
Their acquaintance was founded on a mutual attempt to master power, even exploring legendary sects in hopes of gaining strength through faith.
Yet those sects were deep within the starry sky, difficult even for the Transcendent to reach, let alone ordinary people like them without money or power.
But he was more fortunate, having encountered the Red Moon Sect, born inside Tree Pavilion, by chance, thus obtaining an opportunity to gain power.
Even though he had never heard of Red Moon’s name or the Lord of Red Moon, as long as he could be granted power, he didn’t mind offering up his faith!
Orika found justification for his inner fervor, and now he had acquired power from the Lord of Red Moon, it was time for him to repay this power!
According to the plan, after ascending to the 4th Rank, he now possessed the qualification to journey through the starry sky, able to personally lead a team to spread the brilliance of Red Moon!
Yet before that, he had to confirm this time’s newly acquired power!
Feeling the newfound knowledge in his mind, Orika’s lips curved upward.
"It’s actually the knowledge of Pharmacy and the power to refine potions!
The special effects of various Magic Potions, and the Spiritual Series abilities that control plants and influence creatures have also been greatly enhanced.
Truly worthy of 4th Rank power!"
Though he hadn’t gained new direct combat abilities, based on the diverse potion formulas information in his mind and the enhancement of existing abilities, the combination of the two yields considerable battle strength.
Moreover, with Potion ability in hand, walking through the starry sky should absolutely pose no problem!
Confidently stepping out of the room, an inspiration struck Orika as he turned to look beside him, and in the next room, Harry also happened to step out.
"Haha, Harry, I knew you’d succeed!
Now you’ve also ascended to the 2nd Rank, qualified to journey to the starry sky with me!"
Harry, who had been promoted, was equally excited, feeling the strength conveyed by his body, and had completely surrendered to Red Moon, becoming a devoted believer, naturally accepting the mission.
The two discussed insights into using their abilities, walking side by side, soon returning along the corridor to the hall where they first received power.
At this moment, the long table in the center of the hall had vanished, replaced by a tall man.
His attire appeared ordinary, a leather jacket and shirt like that of a typical worker from Tree Pavilion, only those impressive crimson eyes leaving a lasting impression.
But neither Orika nor Harry underestimated him because of the ordinary attire; anyone appearing here certainly wouldn’t be ordinary, and behind those crimson eyes represented a tier of power higher than theirs!
He was indeed the true commander of this upcoming starry sky mission, purportedly a 5th Rank powerhouse from the Red Moon Divine Country, known as the [Crimson Priest]!
"Vlad, sir." Both greeted in unison.
"Very good, you have proven your faith in Red Moon! You haven’t let me down.
You are qualified to be part of the missionaries!"
The crimson gaze shone with satisfaction.
"Let’s go, the others have been waiting a long time. Pack up; we’re about to set off!"
