"It is unbelievable to me that you, with your profound strength's strong affinity for flame power, were able to comprehend the fifth and sixth levels of Phoenix Flame Skills from the World Ode of the Phoenix even though your Phoenix Flame Power was seriously insufficient! Human, you astound me."

“The core strength of these two realms is the substantial increase in the Phoenix’s flame power, and I have only simply comprehended two major flame skills, which is nothing special.” Yun Che said calmly.

"No! 'Phoenix Wing Sky Dance' and 'Star Burning Demonic Lotus' are the fire skills contained in these two realms. They are closely connected with the artistic conception of the flame power and are one with each other. You can fully understand these two fire skills without understanding the artistic conception. I believe that even if the Phoenix is alive, it will be shocked. This is certainly related to the fact that you have the Heretic God's Fire Seed and have a very high affinity for fire. However, even if the Heretic God is alive, it is basically impossible to do this in just one month. Your amazing understanding is enough to be the best in the world."

This was the Phoenix Spirit's evaluation of Yun Che. As a spirit of a divine beast that transcended the mortal world, it had never thought that one day it would make such an evaluation of a human being.

The jade stone in Yun Che’s hand that contained the “World Ode of the Phoenix” slowly disappeared, and the voice of the Phoenix Spirit sounded again: “Your time in this trial ground is drawing to a close, and it’s time for me to send you out. But before that, perhaps I should give you a special gift.”

In the dark world, a golden light suddenly flew over and touched Yun Che's forehead. Instantly, the red phoenix mark on his forehead appeared... but the color had changed from the previous red to pure gold! Like a cluster of burning golden flames.

“This is…” Feeling the color change of the Phoenix Mark on his forehead, Yun Che subconsciously stroked his forehead and asked in confusion.

"This is a special power that I can only use once in my life, but I don't think I'll ever use it. And you, carrying the power of the evil god, your future is destined to be extraordinary. It would be most appropriate to bestow this power on you. As for what kind of power this is, you will naturally know when you use it."

"Now, let me take you out. Your friends and the Phoenix Clan that I have cursed are facing a huge crisis. Only you can save them now... Go."

The Phoenix Spirit's voice fell, and the pair of huge golden eyes disappeared in the darkness. The space in front of Yun Che suddenly distorted...

——————————————

The seal array was temporarily opened, and Lan Xueruo rushed out at the fastest speed. She saw the situation outside at the first glance, and rushed straight to the black magic mercenary in the front with the jade sword. The seal array behind her was also reopened immediately.

The leader Black Demon was not here, and the other three people with True Profound Realm strength, Black Tiger, Black Ghost, and Black Wolf, seemed to be away too. This was undoubtedly the best situation for Lan Xueruo. With her True Profound Realm third-level profound strength, if she wanted to come and go, these evil people in the Profound Realm would not be able to stop her at all.

"That girl is out... Quick! Go inform the leader!"

Seeing Lan Xueruo suddenly rush out, the group of people closest to her were also caught off guard. Before they could make a move to stop her, the weapons in their hands were all knocked away by Lan Xueruo... With Lan Xueruo's strength, it was completely enough to kill them all in one sword, but in her heart, she never had the thought of killing anyone.

The food storage tent was right in front of them. Lan Xueruo saw it immediately. She waved her jade sword and her graceful body moved forward like a butterfly flying through flowers. She rushed past more than a dozen people and arrived in front of the tent in just a few breaths. Then she quickly took off the space ring on her left jade finger...

However, at this moment, two dangerous gusts of wind suddenly came from both sides of her. Deputy captains Black Tiger and Black Wolf jumped out from behind the tent with a grin on their faces, swinging their maces left and right at Lan Xueruo, forcing her to retreat quickly. Behind her, Deputy Captain Black Ghost also jumped out from somewhere, and the three of them held maces horizontally, surrounding Lan Xueruo in the middle, laughing with great smugness and lewdness.

"I knew you might do this. Tsk tsk, we've been waiting for you for a long time." Black Wolf licked the corner of his mouth and looked at Lan Xueruo with lustful eyes.

"This woman is so beautiful, it's almost killing me." The first time he saw Lan Xueruo up close, Hei Hu's saliva had already flowed uncontrollably.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Capture her first. Although this beauty is young, her profound strength is no less than that of the leader. We should be more careful!"

With a low shout, three maces were swung at Lan Xueruo from three directions at the same time. Lan Xueruo showed a bitter smile. She had not had a drop of water for four days. Although she was holding on with her profound strength, she looked fine on the surface. However, after a long period of hunger, thirst, worry, and heartache, her body had long been weak. She could only exert half of her usual profound strength at most. She didn't even notice where these three people were hiding just now.

Under normal circumstances, she could still deal with these three True Profound Realm Level 1 people by herself, but in her current state, it was almost impossible for her to defeat them or even escape.

The jade sword swung, releasing the profound force, and with one sword, she deflected all the attacks of the three people, but she herself almost lost her balance under the recoil. She gritted her jade teeth, and the golden light in her eyes flickered slightly. She concentrated all her profound force and no longer tried to fight. Instead, she suddenly jumped up and flipped in the air, trying to escape from their encirclement, but the three people obviously anticipated her intention of action. The black ghost sneered: "Want to run? Hehe, now that you are out, don't think about going back... Sky-shaking Strike!"

The black man jumped up immediately after, and smashed Lan Xueruo with a stick in the air. Lan Xueruo blocked it with her sword, but staggered when she landed. At this moment, a burst of crazy laughter came from behind her: "Hahahaha! Great! It's really great! It really was not in vain to wait for more than a month. The beauty came to my door on her own, hahahaha!"

This voice made Lan Xueruo feel a chill in her heart, because it was clearly the voice of the Black Devil.

As soon as the voice fell, a strong wind suddenly hit from behind. Lan Xueruo had no way to avoid it, and even it was too late to swing the sword. She had to push back and take it head-on.

Puff!!

With her profound strength weakened and she was being attacked by surprise, how could Lan Xueruo possibly withstand the attack from behind by the Black Demon? Her delicate body was directly blown away, and a trace of blood slowly slid down the corner of her mouth.

Black Demon was stunned for a moment. He had fought with Lan Xueruo before and was stabbed by her. He was still somewhat afraid of her, so he chose a despicable sneak attack. He didn't expect that his attack would have such a remarkable effect. Looking at Lan Xueruo who was slowly wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, Black Demon stepped forward step by step, grinning uglyly: "Hehe, little beauty, you can't escape this time. Come back with me and be my captain's wife. I promise that you will have a good life in the future. When the time comes, let me release all the people inside. It's just a matter of your words."

Lan Xueruo stood up from the ground, her beautiful eyes were cold, but a wave of sadness surged in her heart: I didn't expect that with my noble body, I would be forced to the point of near despair by a group of inferior villains. She didn't say anything, the jade sword was across her body, ready for the final desperate fight.

“Tsk, you’re really tough.” The Black Demon pinched his chin with his fingers and approached Lan Xueruo step by step, his smile becoming more and more dangerous: “It seems that if I don’t knock you out, you won’t be honest. When you wake up and see yourself stripped naked, I’ll see if you’re still so tough.”

The surrounding Black Demon mercenaries all laughed obscenely, and the Black Demon took a big step forward, sweeping his mace towards Lan Xueruo.

when!

when!

when! !

Lan Xueruo gritted her teeth and tried her best to block the black devil's attack. The first time she blocked, she took a big step back. The second time she blocked, her right arm went numb and she almost fell down. The third time, she was knocked to the ground and the jade sword in her hand was smashed far away.

“Hehehehe,” the Black Demon threw the mace back, rubbed his hands and walked towards the fallen Lan Xueruo, and grabbed her with one hand while laughing lewdly.

Chirp~~~~~~~~

At this moment, a loud and piercing phoenix cry suddenly came from their ears, making their ears buzz. The Black Demon's whole body froze and his movements stopped there. Before he could react, he saw a huge flame shadow suddenly break through the formation that sealed the cave entrance, and rushed towards them with scorching wind and waves.

That flaming shadow... was like a small phoenix spreading its wings and flying!

Wait...Phoenix...Phoenix?

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened and their mouths opened wide. After the "Phoenix" broke out of the sealing formation, it flew towards Lan Xueruo's location like a meteorite falling at a high speed.

BOOM!!!!

The phoenix fell to the ground, causing a fire explosion with a diameter of more than fifty meters.

The Black Demon, Black Tiger, Black Ghost, Black Wolf, and all the nearby Black Demon mercenaries were all blown away by the fire wave, falling dizzy, and then rolling wildly on the ground with screams, extinguishing the flames on their bodies.

The Black Demon was rushed dozens of meters away. He stood up in a panic, desperately slapping the flames on his body, and roared wildly: "Who! Who is it?!"

As soon as he shouted, his eyes suddenly widened... Because as the red light of the flames gradually dissipated, he found that there were already dead bodies in front of him. All those who were below the fifth level of the Profound Realm in the explosion range just now were killed on the spot. Some of them were broken into several pieces, and some of them were still burning, gradually turning into a horrible charred corpse.

The red flames gradually faded away. At the center of the explosion, Yun Che hugged Lan Xueruo's waist and held her weak body with the most gentle movements. He was still covered with a layer of light red flames, but it did not burn Lan Xueruo's body or clothes at all. Looking at the paleness on her face and the trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, feeling the deep weakness coming from her body, Yun Che felt a pain in his heart and said softly: "Senior Sister, I'm sorry, I'm late..."
