Chapter 640: Phoenix Wanfeng

Chapter 640: Thousands of Phoenixes
boom!
It was like thousands of thunders exploding in one loud noise.

Wang Xuandao pressed the fat Taoist priest to crawl on the deck, and the ship beneath them had already fallen into the scorched earth.

"Concentrate your energy, gather your spirit, and activate the twelve prohibitions of the Ruyi Flying Boat!"

"Quick, quick!"

While Wang Xuandao hurriedly urged the fat Taoist priest, he carefully raised his head and looked into the distance. He saw a howling wind and waves like the sea, surging in from somewhere far away and spreading as if there was no limit.

“Even if this isn’t an evil god, I’m afraid it’s a resurrected evil spirit above the fifth level!”

Wang Xuandao's hair stood on end and his heart beat like a drum.

The mysterious realm is strange and bizarre, and it is the inside and outside of the real world. An inch of space in it may be a foot or tens of thousands or billions of miles away from the outside world, and it is full of wonders that cannot be described.

It is difficult for an ordinary monk to shake this scorched earth, let alone create such terrifying waves and strong winds.

He had been exploring the mysteries for many years, and had even witnessed with his own eyes the true disciple of the Poison Dragon Academy, 'Wei Yinghe', ambush and kill a fourth-level evil demon. The thrill of the scene was still unforgettable to this day, but the scene before him was countless times more terrifying than that of the fourth-level evil demon.

"what!"

The fat Taoist priest was sweating profusely, but his reaction was very quick. He let out a low roar and a blue-grey light burst out from his body. The light fell on the ship, and the entire ship trembled.

Then, thousands of vines sprouted all over the ship, digging into the scorched earth like the roots of an old tree. In the blink of an eye, it had transformed into a blue-gray tree several meters tall.

Boom!

The next moment, a strong wind swept in with waves of air, raising billowing smoke and dust, forcing out the dormant strange beasts and soldiers, and even the strange places hidden in the darkness that were difficult for ordinary monks to find were forced out.

"What the hell is this thing, so fierce!"

The fat Taoist priest Duan Tianyi screamed and clung to the thick roots of the old tree. His fat body was blown around like a kite.
"It's my life, Lao Wang, take me underground quickly..."

"Shut up!"

Wang Xuandao grabbed the vines of the old tree with one hand and made hand gestures with the other. The Taoist robe on his body emitted a golden light to protect his body, but it seemed that it would be extinguished at any time under the strong wind.

"Quickly escape underground..."

"Escape from your uncle!"

Wang Xuandao was urged to curse loudly: "Don't even mention that my Small Universe Escape Technique has only been cultivated to the 72nd level of forbidden magic. Even if I cultivated it to the 108th level of forbidden magic, it would be impossible for me to escape underground under the aftermath of this level of magical power!"

"This is magical power!"

Duan Tianyi was startled, and then he screamed and reached out to grab a vine torn off by the strong wind: "My boat can't hold on, it can't hold on anymore!"

"Never mind your lousy boat!"

Wang Xuandao gritted his teeth and activated his robes, and a thin golden light enveloped both of them.

"My ship, my Dharma ship! It's killing me! It's killing me!"

After a while, the strong wind died down a little. Under the old tree with only half of the trunk left, Duan Tianyi knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

He mortgaged his ancestral property to buy this Ruyi Flying Boat from the Ruyi Pavilion, hoping to make a fortune from this exploration of the mysterious land. Now that most of the boat is broken and he hasn't made any money yet, he is immediately disheartened.

"..."

Wang Xuandao gazed intently into the depths of the secluded realm, but one hand could not help but take out the general knowledge ball.

"you……"

After crying for a long time without any comfort, Duan Tianyi looked back and saw that Wang Xuandao was very excited and his arm holding the general knowledge ball was shaking.

"Old Wang, you..."

"Sent!"

"Sent!"

Wang Xuandao suddenly came back to his senses, and a three-foot-long gleam of light burst out from his eyes:
"That's the Blood Phoenix!!"

"what?!"

Duan Tianyi's whole body trembled, and he looked suddenly towards the source of the storm, but it was too far away and he had not mastered any pupil magic, so he could not see anything even if he concentrated.

"The Blood Phoenix that Feng Wuding, Fenghuang'er and other great clans in the Holy Land are offering a bounty for!"

Wang Xuandao calmed himself down, but still couldn't hide his excitement:
"I have submitted the task and am just waiting for those people to confirm it. Then I can claim the reward, 100 million coins!"

"Is it really the Blood Phoenix?"

Duan Tianyi's face flushed and he was shaking with excitement.

In recent years, many major events had taken place in Tianshiyuan, but for those who sought out the mysteries, the hunt for the Blood Phoenix by the true disciples of the holy places was undoubtedly the most sensational event.

There is no need to chase or stop the Blood Phoenix. As long as you find the trace of the Blood Phoenix and report the clues through the General Knowledge Ball, once confirmed, you will get a reward of 100 million coins.

"My little Dongxu Divine Eyes have been cultivated to the 103rd level of forbidden magic, almost reaching the great perfection. I will never look at... Shit, here it comes again!"

Before Wang Xuandao could finish his words, he was drowned out by the loud noise. The airflow that had been draining away for tens of thousands of miles suddenly turned around, with heavy air waves flowing back in the opposite direction.

Boom!

The terrifying wind wave flowed back upstream, and most of the old trees that were broken could no longer take root and were swept up into the sky by the strong wind.

"Wind-avoiding spell!"

"The body-fixing method!"

"The Demonic Rhino's True Form!"

"Thick earth breaks the wind..."

……

In the strong wind, the two men's faces turned blue, their eyes were bloodshot, and their accumulated magic power gushed out, transforming into layers of magical lights, but they dimmed and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“This is the Blood Phoenix’s magical power ‘Swallow the Sky’!” Holding on tightly to the tumbling old tree, Wang Xuandao had already pushed his small Dongxu Divine Eyes to the extreme and saw a scene that made him despair.

The terrifying airflow raged over the endless scorched earth, and those caught up in it were far more than just them. Among them were some ghost seekers whose fame and strength far exceeded theirs.

But under the cover of the aftermath of this magical power, it wailed in misery like them, and no spell could cover the aftermath from the Blood Phoenix.

"It's over!"

The spell cast by draining all the magic power was blown out by the strong wind like a flame. Duan Tianyi's face was full of despair, and his robes were torn into pieces.

“Is this the power of the gods?”

Looking at the huge phoenix that looked like a god in the distance, Wang Xuandao felt a chill in his heart.

But he was unwilling to give up. He desperately squeezed the magic power in his body to resist the strong wind, and he also kept activating his Dharma Eye to find a way to survive.

But what made him despair was that he could not see even a ray of magic light within the range of his magic eyes. Only the shadow of the blood phoenix with wings wide enough to cover the sky and the sun was becoming more and more real.

boom!
It seemed like a moment, but also like a long time later. Wang Xuandao's desperate heart suddenly trembled, and he heard a deep and loud sound like a drumbeat.

"This is?"

At the moment of the loud explosion, Wang Xuandao activated his Dharma Eye and looked into the distance. He saw the void in the distance boiling and a huge red ship breaking through the air.

It was a gigantic ship with eighteen floors above and below, its entire body burning red as fire. Divine patterns were moving on the hull, as if hundreds of flaming phoenixes were raising their heads at the same time.

"Ten Thousand Phoenix Ship!"

The moment he caught a glimpse of the huge scarlet warship, Wang Xuandao felt relieved and was extremely glad that he had chosen Fenghuang'er from the Fire Phoenix clan when he handed in the task.

The Fire Phoenix Clan's Ten Thousand Phoenix Ship may not be as famous as the Poison Dragon Academy's Five-Pulse Dragon Ship, but it is the fastest and can break through the void and boundaries when driven with all its might.

"Humph!"

A cold snort came from the Wanfeng ship, and then a ray of light like a rainbow of fire burst out from the Wanfeng ship. It was a woman dressed in flaming robes, with divine light surrounding her.

Wang Xuandao opened his eyes as wide as he could, but he still couldn't see the woman's face. He only saw her right hand open, and she pulled out a dark red mottled battle flag from the void.
Swing your arms and shake!

hum~
Visible flames cut through the dark sky like the aurora. Wherever the light passed, the terrifying air waves were stagnant.

Then, the strong wind suddenly disappeared!

"After all, I was once a god. Even if I have fallen, this magical power of 'Swallowing the Sky' is terrifying enough. If I were not on the edge, with my current strength, even with the 'Thousand Phoenix Flags' and 'Ten Thousand Phoenix Ships' in my hands, I would not be able to eliminate the storm."

"After all, it is the remains of a god. Even if 'Fatian' was torn into pieces by that person, his strength is not even one-tenth of what it was before his death, but it is still not ordinary. Young master, please do not underestimate him..."

"Who dares to underestimate the gods? However, if I have already reached the realm of breaking the magic ring and transforming the pill into a world, and then wave the Thousand Phoenix Flag, can I break his magical power?"

"Young Master, please remember that the initiation ceremony of Tai Huang Tian does not necessarily require the killing of the evil god..."

"Does Nanny Yan think I'm that reckless? I just feel something in my heart."

"Well... the young master has a natural talent and a solid foundation. However, if he wants to fight against the remains of the evil god, it may not be enough to just break the magic ring and transform the pill into a world. At least he needs to condense the hundred and eight forbidden things in the Thousand Phoenix Flag..."

"Madame Yan..."

Wang Xuandao felt dizzy and could only vaguely hear the conversation between the old man and the young man. The last sentence seemed to be addressed to him:

"The Seeker, considering that you chose to hand in the mission to me first, I will save you. You can collect the reward yourself!"

Wang Xuandao only vaguely saw a flash of red light, and then he rolled and fell into the scorched earth.

……

Huhu~
The Wanfeng ship crossed the sky.

On the eighteenth deck, an old woman with a sallow complexion had a solemn expression. Beside her, Fenghuang'er stood with one hand leaning on a flag, gazing into the distance at the Blood Phoenix that stretched across the dark sky like a star and a moon:
"Madam Yan, I heard that there are other ways to join these ancient sects besides 'Slaying the Evil God'. Have you heard of them?"

"I have heard of it, but by comparison, the Demon God Slayer is more practical. The saying 'if you have a destiny, you will enter the gate of heaven' is really illusory. What does destiny mean?"

The old woman called Nanny Yan shook her head.

The Fire Phoenix clan ranks at the top of the Tianshiyuan Ten Thousand Clans List, with a long heritage. The clan naturally has records about those ancient sects hidden in the depths of the infinite dimension, yet faintly covering all realms.

But as far as she knew, "killing the evil god and performing a grand sacrifice" was the most popular and practical method. She had personally seen an unparalleled genius use this method to become a disciple of "Tai Huang Tian".

"It's fate..."

Fenghuanger whispered softly, and did not ask any more questions. Instead, she looked at the Blood Phoenix in the distance:
"Madam Yan, the sudden appearance of the Blood Phoenix must be a sign of something strange. Could it be that it was stopped by Feng Wuding, Ying Xuanlong, Xuan Daozi and others?"

"Unlikely."

Nanny Yan answered with certainty:
"Those people all brought various offerings for the sacrifice. If we stop the Blood Phoenix, I'm afraid the grand sacrifice would have already begun. But I didn't sense the aura of the ceremony."

"Then, I am the one who should open this grand ceremony!"

Fenghuang'er raised her sword-like eyebrows, looking at the extremely ferocious Blood Phoenix. She was not afraid, but rather eager to try: "The night is long and dreams are many, Nanny Yan, you should take action now."

As his thoughts fluctuated, the huge ship beneath him also trembled, as if it was about to break through the air in the next moment.

"Young Master, please be patient."

Nanny Yan narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I vaguely sensed that there was a strange aura confronting the Blood Phoenix... Well, let me borrow the Ten Thousand Phoenix Ship to deduce something."

"Confrontation with the Blood Phoenix?"

Fenghuang'er's eyes narrowed, and the speed of the huge ship under her dropped sharply: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam..."

"Young master, wait a moment."

Nanny Yan bowed slightly, then sat down on the ground. A pale yellow light shone through her body and sank into the giant ship like water waves.

With a humming sound, the Wan Feng ship trembled violently, and the divine patterns transformed into the shadows of thousands of fire phoenixes, which moved and hummed softly, and gathered on the deck.

Under Fenghuang'er's gaze, it turned into a red light and shadow that went from blurry to clear.
