King Kaolie of Chu was already getting a little restless, and all his grievances and dissatisfaction had dissipated a little.
After all, he was still greedy for power, especially an emperor like him who had held real power for many years. The older he got, the less he wanted to die.
Isn't another way to express deification to make him immortal or long-lived?
Peng Zu lived for 800 years but still did not become a god or a saint. If King Kaolie of Chu had become a god, how many more years would he have lived?
"Taiyi has praised me highly, and my ancestors have praised me highly." King Kaolie of Chu would naturally not get carried away with success. He suppressed the joy in his heart and lowered his posture a little.
"Hmph!" Feng Luan snorted coldly, without any mockery, and continued, "It's just that you are old, and the Qin State is also eyeing you covetously. Naturally, you can't withstand ordinary enlightenment. If you want to become a god, you have to take risky measures."
The current King Kaolie of Chu would never think so much. After all, he was still greedy, otherwise how could there be such a big change.
"Ancestor, please speak. For the sake of the State of Chu, anything is acceptable!" King Kaolie of Chu also knew that the purpose of this group of people was to help him keep the State of Chu.
Now that they know the purpose, how can they make mistakes again? Just keep talking and it will always touch their hearts.
Sure enough, the phoenix statue nodded slightly with satisfaction, flapped its wings, and saw a candle flame fall and drip onto the head of King Kaolie of Chu.
King Kaolie of Chu was startled at first, but when he saw that the candle flame was neither burning nor scorching, but rather had a cool and refreshing feel, his mind became clear.
"Don't talk about what this risky move is for now. Let me first tell you what a god's position is." The Phoenix Statue had a smile on its face, but the bird's head had human emotions, which was a little bit unusual for it.
However, in the eyes of King Kaolie of Chu, who was seeking immortality, there was not much discomfort, and it even looked a little cute.
"I was originally a phoenix, born in Chu. Inspired by the Taiyi, I was granted the divine position of Zhurong. However, I perished during the divine war in heaven, leaving only a wisp of my soul. Otherwise, I would not have come down to give you this gift.
The position that Taiyi promised you is Zhurong."
King Kaolie of Chu was no stranger to Zhurong. Like Taiyi, he was also a sacred figure that appeared in the Chu Ci.
He was originally worshipped by people, and King Kaolie of Chu just took on the divine position, so the worship was probably also taken away.
With such power, King Kaolie of Chu would be no different, and the joy in his heart almost overflowed.
"I can see that you are very satisfied." Feng Luan did not wait for King Kaolie of Chu to express his opinion, and continued, "Now we have to talk about what a risky move is.
I was born with fire, my priesthood is accompanied by fire, and even death is accompanied by flames, so this dangerous move is also related to fire.
I will give you this remnant soul and your divine power, and you can light up the entire Chen City and perform the phoenix nirvana, then your divine duty can be accomplished.
He will even send me, the god, down to earth to help the State of Chu."
King Kaolie of Chu was a little conflicted, but not for too long.
It’s just self-immolation, what’s the big deal?
Compared to immortality, how could such physical pain be unbearable?
"Please bestow our grace upon us, ancestors!" Since King Kaolie of Chu had already made up his mind, there was no reason for him to go back on his word.
Fengluan seemed to be laughing, and a flash of fiery red rose from him, then enveloped King Kaolie of Chu and slowly seeped into the outside world.
Before the guards around could exclaim, and before the maids could throw water, the fiery red spread all over the entire Chen City and all over the people in Chen City.
This is a tragedy, but also a blessing in disguise.
Like another sun in the world, the fire in this city illuminates the place brightly!
A day and a night passed quietly, and the fire in the entire city dissipated. There was no trace of damage, and it even felt brand new.
The whole city seemed brand new, as if the raging fire and wailing of yesterday had never existed.
The people here had blank eyes, and seemed to be repeating the actions set by others as if following a procedure.
Even if everyone is refreshed, even if the city is reborn, it cannot change the fact that this group of people have lost their souls.
"Hahaha……"
The place where the ancestral temple was located seemed even more magnificent and noble. This smile was like the cry of a phoenix, making everyone in Chencheng kneel down like a hundred birds paying homage to a phoenix.
