Chapter 418: Blood of the Phoenix
Ye Changsheng sighed helplessly. Now he could no longer hide. A dark hill appeared in front of him, blocking those terrifying spikes.
This earth-shattering explosion lasted for more than ten breaths. If Ye Changsheng had not stood far enough away from these people, he would have suffered a lot from the explosion even with the Yuanci Mountain to block it.
When the green light explosion was coming to an end, Ye Changsheng saw a faint green light wrapped around an ancient bronze lamp and a green storage bracelet flying out from the center of the explosion.
Without any pause, it appeared a thousand feet away from the center of the explosion in a flash, and then flashed again, about to shoot out into the distance.
Suddenly, a black light flashed above the green light, and the space at the location seemed to freeze, preventing the green light from escaping.
Immediately afterwards, a large green cauldron appeared, and dense green hair flew out of the cauldron, directly wrapping the green light and pulling it into the cauldron.
As the lid of the tripod closed, the tripod, which was about ten feet in size, quickly shrank to the size of a fist. A hand reached out and grabbed it.
The person who came over to pick peaches and take advantage of the situation was naturally Ye Changsheng. When he discovered that the Nascent Soul of the old man from the Mu clan had escaped, he immediately flew over and captured it.
But the man surnamed Xiao didn't care about this at all at this moment.
After the old man from the Wood Clan self-destructed his natal spirit tree and his natal spirit beast, all the attacks were directed at him.
Although the formation he had set up in advance was able to resist for a while, after the formation was destroyed, the remaining power was still terrifyingly great.
He used all means to resist, and destroyed three or four defensive treasures before he barely managed to block this wave of attack.
But even so, his condition was not very good. Several huge spikes pierced his shoulders and legs, and the poison carried by the spikes was corroding his body.
When the self-destructive attack of the old man from the Bomu tribe finally subsided and the man surnamed Xiao was about to take a detoxification pill to relieve the toxins in his body, he suddenly felt a horrifying wave rising from the side.
"Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist. I am a cultivator from the Black Phoenix royal clan of the demon race. Please show mercy, fellow Daoist from the human race!" the man named Xiao shouted in fear.
Just now, when Ye Changsheng had to use Yuanci Mountain to resist those huge wooden thorns, he discovered Ye Changsheng's existence.
At that time, this person was startled. He didn't expect that while he was stalking the cicada, there was actually an oriole behind it.
This person had unexpectedly followed them without them noticing at all.
As soon as he saw there were other people here, his heart sank immediately.
However, when he took a closer look and discovered that the man who followed him was actually a human cultivator who was only at the level of a spirit being, he felt relieved.
He planned to calm down first, and then have a conversation with this human cultivator to see if he could kill him here.
However, what he didn't expect was that before he could negotiate with this person, this person actually took action without any hesitation.
Moreover, the power of the attack was so terrifying.
The bronze short spear in this man's hand mobilized the vitality of heaven and earth, which actually had the tendency to threaten his life.
After he shouted these words, the human man showed no intention of stopping. He swung the bronze short spear downwards, and a blade of light flew towards him at a rapid speed.
The man surnamed Xiao showed fear in his eyes, and he quickly opened his mouth and spit out a ball of black flame. The black flame condensed into a huge fire phoenix, which flew out and blocked in front of him.
A blade of light flashed by, and the huge black fire phoenix was cut in half in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, the man surnamed Xiao's face darkened and a dark green jade plate flew out of his sleeve. The shape of a tree was engraved on the surface of the jade plate.
A dark green light emanated from the jade token, which formed a green round shield that blocked the man named Xiao.
"boom!"
After the light blade hit the green round shield, a violent wave erupted, the round shield exploded, and the light blade also exhausted its power and slowly dissipated between heaven and earth.
But immediately afterwards, Ye Changsheng activated the Heavenly Demon Spear, and another blade of light slashed down fiercely, its power no less than the previous one.
When the man surnamed Xiao saw this scene, his face burst into anger and he snorted coldly.
He threw the jade token into the air and chanted a spell rapidly. After the spell stopped, the man surnamed Xiao suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale in an instant.
The essence and blood fell on the jade token, and the jade token glowed with a dark green light. The tree-shaped shadow in it suddenly flew out and landed in front of the man named Xiao, forming a towering tree.
When the light blade slashed by Tianmo Ge flew in front of the towering tree, a dark green light flashed on the tree, and immediately absorbed the light blade and disappeared.
Seeing this, the man surnamed Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but then his expression changed again.
I saw a dark mountain nearly a hundred feet high falling heavily above my head.
"boom!"
A mountain fell down, and the dark green branches of the towering tree immediately twisted, and at this time another blade of light came slashing.
The dark green tree was no longer able to absorb the light blade as easily as before, and could only block it with difficulty. As a result, after the light blade passed through, a branch of the tree was cut off.
Immediately afterwards, a pitch-black mountain rose into the air and smashed down again.
After a crisp "crack" sound, the dark green tree was broken in half. With a flash of light, it disappeared from the spot, and a crack appeared on the jade plate.
Seeing this, the man surnamed Xiao was horrified and opened his mouth quickly to say something.
However, before he could say anything, the dark mountain fell down again.
"ah!!!"
A shrill scream was heard.
Ye Changsheng took back the Yuanci Mountain, only to see a black phoenix about ten feet long lying on the ground with wounds all over its body, and black flames coming out of its body.
A black light flashed on the black phoenix, and the soul of the man surnamed Xiao flew out, holding the demon pill in his arms and trying to escape.
But the next moment, a hand grabbed it firmly.
“Fellow Daoist…”
The man surnamed Xiao screamed in fear, but before he could say anything, Ye Changsheng had already stuffed his soul into a jade bottle, affixed a few talismans to it, and sealed it up.
"This person planned everything, but in the end, you got the advantage!" Bing Feng's voice sounded in Ye Changsheng's heart.
A silver light flashed on the spirit beast bracelet, and the Ice Phoenix flew out, looking at the surrounding scene with emotion on its face.
"I didn't expect that we just wanted to pass through the Nan Gen Skyline, but by chance we encountered such a thing!" Ye Changsheng said with a smile.
"Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix!" She sighed softly, and looked at Ye Changsheng with a hint of eagerness in her eyes.
"Why, do you want the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix?" Ye Changsheng asked with a smile when he saw this.
"You guy, you're asking even though you already know the answer?" Bing Feng said with a pouty voice.
"Hehe, then you call me master first, and I will show you the Sky Phoenix Lamp!" Ye Changsheng showed a sly smile and said to Bing Feng with ill intention.
"You..." Bing Feng was suddenly choked with anger, her face full of shame and anger, and she stared at him with her beautiful eyes wide open.
"Don't worry, I'll show you sooner or later. And from what those two people said before, it seems that this old man from the Mu clan has a lot of Heavenly Phoenix blood. Maybe we can find a lot of it in his storage bracelet. I'm sure you'll be satisfied!" Ye Changsheng held her soft hand and said softly.
"Hmph, you finally caught me at my weak spot. If you use this as a threat in the future, I don't know how many excessive things I will do!" Bing Feng said with a flushed face.
"Hehe, how can those things be called excessive? They are just the interests between husband and wife. When you were in the human world, I don't know how happy your good sisters were to do these things!" Ye Changsheng said with a smile.
"I'm not your wife!"
"Yes, yes, yes! The relationship between us is closer than that of a husband and wife. Sooner or later, what's mine will be yours. Just wait patiently!" Ye Changsheng said with a low smile.
Bing Feng couldn't help but wail in her heart when she heard that. She knew without even thinking about it, how much Ye Changsheng would make her do when he used the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix in the future!
When she thought of this, her pretty face couldn't help but get slightly hot.
When she was in the human world before, she might have preferred not to have the Tianfeng true blood rather than submit to Ye Changsheng.
But now…
How can that be called surrender?
It's just a roundabout way to save the country. I'm pretending to be friendly with this bad guy temporarily. When I'm more powerful than him in the future, I'll turn around and play a good role on him.
All the things he asked her to do now, she would have to do them again for her in the future.
Although Ye Changsheng had not yet counted the storage bracelets of the old man from the Wood Clan, he had taken a look at the storage bracelet of the Void Refining Monk from the Black Phoenix Clan first.
As a result, he found three more Black Flame Pills inside, which surprised him quite a bit.
The Black Flame Pill is one of the best elixirs to assist in breaking through the Void Refinement Realm, but at the same time, it can also help advance to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However, under normal circumstances, almost no one would use such a precious elixir to break through to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. After all, the number of Black Flame Pills is too small.
But for Ye Changsheng, there is no need to worry about this.
With the help of this elixir, he shouldn't have to worry about the bottleneck in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation.
"Well, this guy's storage bracelet contains a lot of precious materials that only the Wood Clan possesses. This is quite a big gain!"
"I think that old man has more of this kind of wood clan material!" Ye Changsheng suddenly became more expectant about the storage bracelet of the old man from the wood clan.
However, he had no plans to open it for the time being, as he did not want Bing Feng to know what was in the storage bracelet.
In this way, he will be able to openly take out a large amount of Tianfeng blood in the future.
If Bing Feng asks, just say that you got it from the storage bracelet of the old man from the Mu clan.
After all, they both had heard before that this old man from the Mu clan seemed to have a lot of Tianfeng blood treasured in his clan.
After collecting this unexpected harvest, Ye Changsheng walked down the pit again and looted the five Wood Clan gods who had died inside.
Afterwards, he took out the Nascent Soul of the old man from the Mu clan and searched his soul.
From the other party's memory, he learned about the distribution of the Wood Clan guards behind the Nan Gen Line of Sky.
After gaining a general understanding, he and Bing Feng passed through the Nan Gen Skyline and entered the territory of the Wood Clan.
It took more than half a year for Ye Changsheng and Bing Feng to pass through the edge of the Mu clan's territory and truly enter the depths of the wilderness.
This is a vast wilderness with few large ethnic groups living there. It is full of dangers but also countless opportunities.
However, Ye Changsheng and Bing Feng did not enter such a place to wander around, but found a safe place to live temporarily.
A few months later, the two went to the place where they had agreed to meet with the Spirit Emperor's maid.
Ye Changsheng and Bing Feng appeared in front of a gourd-shaped lake. Ye Changsheng took out a map, checked it, and said, "This is it!"
"There's no one around. That Spirit Emperor maid you mentioned, hasn't come yet?" Bing Feng said, glancing around.
Ye Changsheng sensed it carefully and said, "It should be that he hasn't arrived yet, let's wait a little longer!"
The two found a huge rock by the lake, sat cross-legged on it and waited.
After about an hour, a white light suddenly flashed in the distant sky, and a figure flew towards this side.
“Here it comes!”
Ye Changsheng whispered and stood up.
Bing Feng also looked over there, and soon, the white light fell in front of the two of them, revealing a woman with a great figure but a very ordinary face.
After the woman landed, she looked at Bing Feng in surprise, then a smile spread across her face and she said:
"Fellow Daoist Ye is indeed a trustworthy person. He arrived on time. But who is the fellow Daoist next to you?"
"She is a friend of mine, and she is working with me because of some things!" Ye Changsheng explained casually.
Hearing this, the woman in white frowned slightly and said coldly: "Fellow Daoist Ye, the agreement between us did not include this fellow Daoist!"
Bing Feng frowned slightly when she heard this, and looked at the woman carefully for a few times, but did not say anything.
Ye Changsheng laughed and said, "Her appearance will not affect the agreement between you and me that day. We should divide the spoils as we should. There is no need to let me get an extra share just because of her appearance!"
"Do you still think that an additional cultivator in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm will pose any threat to you?" Ye Changsheng asked back.
The woman in white laughed and said meaningfully, "Your friend is not just a simple early stage of transformation. I have yet to ask, what is the name of this fairy? "
"My name is Bingfeng, nice to meet you, senior!" Bingfeng said coldly.
"Oh? It's Bing Feng? Haha!" The woman in white laughed twice with ambiguous meanings.
"By the way, I haven't asked you what to address me as senior!" Ye Changsheng asked the woman in white as if he suddenly remembered something.
"You can call me Miaoyu!" said the woman in white lightly.
"It turns out to be Senior Miaoyu. I have answered your questions. May I ask if we can set off now?" Ye Changsheng asked with a faint smile.
The woman in white named Miaoyu looked at the two of them deeply, and then said, "Okay, let's go!"
As she spoke, she flew out of the lake first. Ye Changsheng and Bing Feng looked at each other and followed her.
The place where the two agreed to meet was quite far away from the place where Miaoyu mentioned the cave of Master Qianbao was located.
Ye Changsheng and his two companions flew in the wilderness for more than two months. During the journey, they encountered various ferocious beasts, powerful alien warriors, and others, and were in danger repeatedly.
Fortunately, the three of them were all extremely powerful, and with all sorts of means at their disposal, they were able to get through the crises without any major problems.
Gradually, Ye Changsheng felt that the spiritual energy in the place they passed through was becoming increasingly thinner.
On the land below, the grass and trees began to become sparse, and the number of various wild creatures became fewer and fewer.
Later on, they flew for a month without encountering any powerful creatures.
It seemed that Miaoyu was taking them to a remote and desolate place in the wilderness.
Two months later, in a wasteland, the three saw from afar a small hill that was only a hundred feet high.
"That's it. Master Qianbao's cave is on that small hill!" Miaoyu stopped, turned around and smiled brightly, then said to Ye Changsheng and Bingfeng.
"This place is so far away from both the human and demon races, how could Master Qianbao set up his cave in such a place?" Bing Feng said with some doubt.
"Haha, even though we have flown so far, we are still under the influence of several small tribes such as the human tribe, the demon tribe, and the wood tribe. Apart from our small tribe, there is no other tribe that can stand out!"
"This distance may be a bit far for the Spirit Transformation and Void Refining cultivators, but for the Fusion cultivators, it is nothing!" Miaoyu said lightly.
Ye Changsheng nodded secretly. During their flight, they encountered many different kinds of alien races.
But among these tribes, the strongest are mostly at the fusion stage, and there are only a few of them.
A tribe of this size would not be worthy of mention in the entire spiritual world, let alone in this small area in the northwest corner of Fengyuan Continent.
If they don't rely on a small tribe, they might be exterminated one day.
However, the area where they are now, although still within the sphere of influence of several small tribes such as the human race, is almost at the edge.
I don’t know why Master Qianbao set up the cave here?
Is it just because of the special environment here?
"Is the golden magnetic spiritual land ahead?" Bing Feng asked, looking at the desolate land in front of her. She could vaguely sense that there was a strange energy hidden underground in this area.
Miaoyu chuckled and said, "You will know if you look carefully!"
As she spoke, she took out an ordinary magic weapon and threw it forward.
The magic weapon turned into a rainbow light, and after flying out for hundreds of feet, it suddenly stopped in the air without any warning. Then with a "boom", the magic weapon exploded directly and turned into a ball of dazzling light, like fireworks.
Seeing this scene, Bing Feng's pupils suddenly shrank.
"This is the Golden Magnetic Spiritual Land. Both the sky and the ground are filled with this invisible and intangible natural restriction !"
"No matter what it is, once it enters this area, it will immediately cause the internal forces to riot and explode directly!"
"Once a Void Refining cultivator like me enters, the five elements of vitality in my body will riot and burn. If I stay there for too long, it will cause irreversible damage to my body!"
"And what you see is just the edge of this golden magnetic spiritual land. If you go further inward , you will encounter the area covered by Master Qianbao's Liang Yi Yuan Chen formation. The invisible restrictions in there are hundreds of times more terrifying!" Miaoyu said lightly.
When Bing Feng heard this, her eyes turned serious as she looked at that area.
The invisible restrictions on the periphery alone are so terrifying, and the interior is hundreds of times stronger. No wonder even the combined cultivators dare not force their way in.
"I was originally planning to give up exploring this cave, but I didn't expect to meet someone like you who owns Yuanci Mountain. Now I finally see an opportunity!" Miaoyu said to Ye Changsheng with a smile.
"Didn't the senior tell the Spirit Emperor about what happened here? With the power of one of the Three Emperors, is it impossible to break the formation here?" Ye Changsheng turned his head and asked with a hint of surprise.
Miaoyu was stunned when she heard this, then she snorted coldly and said, "Do you think the Spirit Emperor doesn't know about this cave?"
"To tell you the truth, the Spiritual Emperor came here in person to take a look, but even with her peak fusion cultivation, she was not sure of entering the cave. She even suffered a lot of damage to her vitality because of forcing her way into this formation!"
Miaoyu said, a flash of worry in her eyes, and then she slowly said: "But with the wisdom of the Spirit Emperor, it is not impossible to break the formation here!"
"But that would definitely require a large-scale war and sending a large number of people here!"
"If this happens, let alone how the surrounding alien races will react, there will be many people from within the human race who will come directly to us and ask for a piece of the pie!"
"So, in order to avoid attracting attention, the Spiritual Emperor sent you, a maid, to secretly come here to explore this cave? The Spiritual Emperor really trusts you!" Ye Changsheng smiled and said.
"Haha, although I am the maid of the Spirit Emperor, the deep relationship between me and her is not comparable to that of ordinary people!"
"Okay, you've asked so many questions, now it's time to take out the Yuanci Mountain, right?" Miaoyu asked with a frown.
"Haha, it's me, the junior, who is being nosy. Let's go!" Ye Changsheng said, and a miniature black hill appeared in his hand.
He threw the hill into the air, and it immediately became several dozen feet high. A gray light flowed down from it, enveloping the three people.
Then, wrapped in the gray light, the three of them walked towards the golden magnetic land.
As soon as he stepped into that area, Ye Changsheng felt the hill above his head shake, and an invisible force rushed over.
However, when this force came into contact with the Yuanci Mountain and the surrounding Yuanci divine light, it was immediately bounced away and could not get close.
It seems that Miaoyu was right. The Yuanci Divine Light does have a certain inhibitory effect on this kind of golden magnetic force.
However, at the same time that Yuanci Mountain repelled this force, Ye Changsheng also felt that his magic power began to slowly dissipate.
