Seizing Destiny From Heavens Hands-Chapter 476: Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus, Undying River Torrent Diagram, Ten-Thousand-Year Deep Sea Dragon Ginseng

Chapter 476: Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus, Undying River Torrent Diagram, Ten-Thousand-Year Deep Sea Dragon Ginseng

The moment Shen Mo first laid eyes on Ye Yan, he saw the other man's life panel.

【Upcoming Opportunity 1: One day later, while patrolling the surrounding area, he will discover a small demon settlement. After destroying it, he finds that the settlement worshipped an ancient statue. Breaking the statue yields a Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus.】

【Upcoming Opportunity 2: Half a month later, during a patrol mission with the Demon Suppression Guards of the Vermilion Bird Fortress, he is ambushed by several Peak True Demon Lords. Outmatched, he abandons his comrades and flees alone.

During his escape, he accidentally falls into an underground cavern, where he discovers a treasured mirror carved with the Undying River Torrent Diagram.

In the end, using the mirror’s remaining power, he counter-kills the Peak True Demon Lords and escapes with the great treasure.】

【Upcoming Opportunity 3: One month later, invited by the Azure Dragon and White Tiger Fortresses, he travels southeast to excavate a crashed ancient war weapon.

During the excavation, he accidentally uncovers a segment of Ten-Thousand-Year Deep Sea Dragon Ginseng and claims it for himself.

He also discovers structural diagrams of the ancient weapon, but due to limited comprehension in this area, he is unable to understand them.】

【Upcoming Opportunity 4: Two months later, during another patrol, he unintentionally discovers a secret mobilization by the demon race.

Sensing something was off, he leaves the outpost before the Vermilion Forty-One Outpost is surrounded by demons and hides in an underground cavern he had prepared in advance, emerging from the battle completely unscathed.

Near the end of the battle, he bursts out from hiding, cleans up the remaining enemies, and deals a heavy blow to the demon race, becoming a source of pride for the Vermilion Bird Fortress's Demon Suppression Guards.】

【Upcoming Opportunity 5: …】

After reading through these fortunes, Shen Mo couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.

His gaze toward Ye Yan suddenly shifted into one of appreciation. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

It was as if he were looking at a long-lost relative.

That look sent a chill down Ye Yan’s spine.

“There it is again—that look…”

“It’s like he’s about to take something from me, and I don’t even know what it is…”

In the depths of Ye Yan’s heart, a shadow named “Shen Mo” began to stir and fester.

“I don’t need you serving at my beck and call,” Shen Mo said with a calm smile. “As long as your heart aligns with the human race and you stand against the demons, I won’t expose what you’ve done.”

Ye Yan finally relaxed a bit. “Thank you, Young Sect Master.”

Shen Mo waved his hand. “I’m just a Demon Suppression Guard now.”

Ye Yan paused, then respectfully said, “Thank you, Commander Shen.”

Shen Mo nodded. “Go do what you’re supposed to.”

With that, he turned and left on his own.

Ye Yan stared blankly at his departing figure.

He had thought Shen Mo would use the past as leverage to blackmail him.

With Shen Mo’s reputation, plenty of people would believe whatever he said.

Just one word from Shen Mo, and Ye Yan would be cast out by all, unable to remain at the Vermilion Bird Fortress.

He had already prepared himself to pay dearly—so long as Shen Mo didn’t demand his life, he was willing to give anything.

But now… nothing had happened?

“Could it be that Shen Mo is actually a tolerant and magnanimous person?”

Ye Yan felt skeptical inside.

“No matter. Since he didn’t demand any treasures from me, that’s already a good outcome.”

He let out a long breath and hurried off.

The pressure of being around Shen Mo was simply too intense.

Better to leave early.

On the other side.

Shen Mo didn’t linger for even a moment. He immediately changed his appearance and departed from the Xuanwu Forty-One Outpost.

A Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus!

The Undying River Torrent Diagram!

Ten-Thousand-Year Deep Sea Dragon Ginseng!

These were miraculous fortunes most people couldn’t obtain even in ten lifetimes!

And yet all of them were going to fall into Ye Yan’s hands?

He truly lived up to his red-tier fate as a “Child of Destiny.”

Even if Shen Mo held deep contempt for Ye Yan’s character, he had to admit—Ye Yan’s fortune was only growing stronger.

Half an hour later…

Shen Mo located the small demon settlement.

He wiped it out with ease.

At the center of the settlement stood a strange statue, over five zhang tall.

At its base were offerings of dried meat and bones from the demons.

It seemed the demons had been worshipping this statue as some kind of mysterious deity.

Shen Mo circled around the statue but couldn’t detect anything unusual.

However, he did sense a faint feeling of familiarity.

'It should be the divine thunder power emitted by the Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus.'

'The energy from the Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus can slightly harm demons and suppress demonic aura.'

'That’s likely why this demon settlement feared it and chose to enshrine it.'

With a sudden strike of his palm, Shen Mo unleashed tremendous force and shattered the statue in one blow.

The divine thunder power that had accumulated within burst out instantly, flooding the entire demon settlement.

In the blink of an eye, all the demon corpses ignited like drops of oil meeting open flame, billowing thick smoke.

Soon, every corpse was incinerated to ash, vanishing completely.

Only then did Shen Mo clearly see what had been inside the statue.

It was a lotus even larger than a normal Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus.

It was the Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus.

In the Heavenly Dao Treasury, a Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus was classified as a low-grade Heaven-rank treasure.

One such lotus required twenty Class C merits.

The Thousand-Year variant was a mid-grade Heaven-rank treasure, and its merit cost shot up to a full Class B merit.

This was perfect for Shen Mo’s cultivation of the Divine Thunder Demon Suppression Sutra—he naturally wouldn’t let it go.

After obtaining the Thousand-Year Sky-Blue Thunder Lotus, Shen Mo didn’t pause for a moment and immediately headed for the next location.

It was in a rarely visited valley on the fourth layer.

There were no signs of humans, demons, or even flood dragons here—not even demons ventured close.

Because an ancient war weapon had crashed here.

Even after its crash, its residual flames still scorched the surroundings, forcing demons to stay away.

If even part of the war weapon’s technology could be restored, it might yield a powerful construct, capable of rivaling a Dharma Manifestation Realm expert in combat.

However, this area lay deep within the fourth layer.

Although demons didn’t need war weapons, they wouldn’t sit back and allow the other three races to obtain them either.

Naturally, they had set up multiple layers of defenses along the path.

Without enough manpower and strength, Demon Suppression Guards wouldn’t be able to reach it.

But Shen Mo had nothing to fear.

He was alone, a small target.

He reached the outskirts of the ancient war weapon with ease.

Standing on a mountaintop, Shen Mo looked into the valley and couldn’t help being astonished.

He had underestimated the size of the war machine.

Its wreckage alone filled the entire valley.

Countless parts had scattered across the surrounding area.

Unceasing flames continued to burn, casting a faint light over the dark terrain.

A few lesser demons guarded the outskirts, but they looked listless—clearly displeased with the assignment.

'This ancient war machine holds a structural diagram that I can use.'

'Also, some of its components can be salvaged—perhaps they can help construct a Soaring Dragon Cloudship.'

'If I can build the Soaring Dragon Cloudship, it would be a powerful new asset.'

With that in mind, Shen Mo made up his mind.

With a light step, he shot into the valley like a gust of wind.

The drowsy lesser demons didn’t notice a thing—only felt a chill and wrapped their beast-hide tunics tighter around themselves.

Moments later, Shen Mo reached the core section of the ancient war machine.

This was likely where the control system had been.

After a brief search, he indeed found a scroll beside a long-weathered skeleton.

'Soaring Dragon Cloudship…'

'So this was a cloudship, and even modeled after Ou Ye’s designs.'

Shen Mo’s eyes lit up.

This meant that many of the parts within this ruined war machine could be reused!
