Feng Baichuan said that a person can only enter the Phoenix Trial Land once in his life, and no matter whether he succeeds or fails, he cannot enter it a second time. Even so, because he did not want to hurt the most precious figure in the depths of his soul, he chose to give up passing the third trial.
But, this was just what he thought.
The words of the Phoenix Spirit made Yun Che raise his eyes suddenly, but he was unable to react for a moment.
"Only those who pursue and persist in power enough can pass the third trial. I deliberately hinted in the opposite direction. The phoenix is a benevolent beast. The trial ground it left behind is a gift to the Tianxuan Continent. But the phoenix does not want its power to be inherited by sinful and ruthless humans. The third level of the trial is a trial made with the most beautiful things and memories in the depths of the trialer's soul, and I hinted before the trial that persistence in power can pass the trial."
"That's right. Those illusions come from my own memories, not from other forces pretending or simulating them. They are exactly the same as real people, things, and objects, as if I were facing them in person. If you can hurt your most beloved ones in pursuit of power, then that is an obsession with power, but even if you are not a bad person, you lack the sense of friendship that all living things need the most. Such people gain powerful powers more for their own strength, rather than for protection. This goes against the original intention of the Phoenix to leave this trial ground."
"Among the seven people who passed the third level trial, some of them faced their wives, some faced their masters, benefactors, parents, and even their own children. Like you, they knew it was an illusion, but they couldn't do anything to them. When they attacked, although they didn't fight back, they always resisted. And you, were willing to be stabbed to death by her, just to hug her for a few more moments... You are the most perfect person who has passed the third level trial in countless years."
This sudden change undoubtedly made Yun Che overjoyed. This could not be said to be a lucky coincidence, but rather a choice he would make no matter what the circumstances. Because even if he had to disappoint the entire world, he would never allow himself to disappoint that girl again.
“So, can I get the power of the phoenix now?” Yun Che said expectantly.
"Of course. You will receive three gifts from the Phoenix: Phoenix Blood, Phoenix Pill, and the opportunity to comprehend the Fragments of the Phoenix Ode."
"Now, I grant you the blood of the Phoenix."
The golden pupils of the Phoenix Spirit flashed with golden light, turning the entire dark world into golden color in an instant. Suddenly, a golden light spot came from the void, accurately hitting the center of Yun Che's eyebrows, and then directly sank into his eyebrows.
"Previous test-takers only received one drop of Phoenix blood after passing the test, but you possess the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure, carrying the power of the Heretic God. Since you passed the third test perfectly, I will make an exception and grant you three drops of Phoenix blood. You already possess the Fire Seed of the Heretic God, and are not afraid of all the fires in the world. The fire resistance brought by Phoenix blood is useless to you, but it will be integrated into your blood, allowing you to achieve twice the result with half the effort when practicing Fire-related Mysterious Arts, and use Fire-related Mysterious Skills with greater power! Especially when performing Phoenix Flame Skills, it will exert three times the power of a mortal's blood!"
"There is another reason. One drop of phoenix blood is the limit of what a mortal's blood can bear. You have the Fire God Seed of the Heretic God, so even fusing three drops of phoenix blood is easy, and the whole process is risk-free and painless. Now close your eyes and fuse these three drops of phoenix blood into your blood. The first seven trialists took the shortest time to complete the fusion, but I believe it will only take you half a quarter of an hour."
The voice of the Phoenix Spirit echoed in his heart, but Yun Che had no time to respond.
These three small drops of blood are nothing compared to the huge blood vessels in the human body, but this is the blood of the Phoenix!
After the three drops of phoenix blood entered his blood, they were like three clusters of madly burning flames... and these three clusters of flames spread throughout his blood vessels almost instantly, causing all the blood in his body to surge violently.
If it were a mortal, the pain of the burning blood alone would be enough to make him feel like dying. One drop might be successfully integrated into the blood after suppressing, resisting, and unblocking it with all his might, but three drops... just as the Phoenix Spirit said, it was beyond the limit that human blood could withstand, and not only was it impossible to merge, but it would be devoured by the Phoenix Blood.
However, for Yun Che, the burning sensation he felt was just three warm currents surging through his body. However, in front of the blood of a mortal, the Phoenix blood was too powerful and noble, just like three pieces of the most noble jade falling into ordinary dust. Yun Che closed his eyes, calmed down, and used his profound energy to suppress the rebellion of the three drops of Phoenix blood, guiding them to wander around in his blood, allowing the three drops of Phoenix blood to dissolve into his blood bit by bit.
Gradually, his blood became hotter and hotter, and the three drops of phoenix blood became smaller and smaller. After traveling through his body for more than a dozen times, the three drops of phoenix blood finally completely dissolved into Yun Che's blood.
Yun Che opened his eyes, and a fiery red flame mark flashed between his eyebrows. The shape of the mark was exactly the same as that of the Phoenix Clan outside, but the color was much brighter.
"Very good, it seems that you have successfully merged three drops of Phoenix blood. I have sensed the changes in your blood. With these three drops of Phoenix blood, your life span will be extended by at least three hundred years. Then, I will give you this Phoenix God Pill and the remaining scroll of the Phoenix Ode to the World."
The huge golden pupil flashed again, and two points of light fell from the sky and landed in front of Yun Che... It was a white jade bottle and a broken white jade slab.
"Inside the white jade bottle is the Phoenix God Pill. It can greatly improve your ability to control the power of fire, but you have the Fire God Seed of the Evil God in your body, so this main ability will not have much effect on you. At the same time, it can greatly improve your profound strength. As far as your current profound strength is concerned, it can improve your profound strength level by more than five levels!"
"And this jade stone bears the incomplete copy of the World Ode of the Phoenix. In ancient times, the World Ode of the Phoenix, along with the Vermillion Bird's Comforting Song and the Golden Crow's Record of the Burning World, were known as the three great books of world-burning, and they had the power to burn the heavens to ashes. Back then, the phoenix left behind the first six levels of the World Ode of the Phoenix in the trial grounds, but..."
Having said this, the Phoenix Spirit suddenly fell silent, as if waiting for Yun Che to check it out himself.
Yun Che picked up the Phoenix Pill and the broken jade, and placed his hand on the jade. His profound energy moved, and the information inside quickly entered his mind. His heart was also in an extremely excited state... This is the fire skill from the phoenix! The relic of the mythical beast known as one of the Burning World Heavenly Books!
…………
The fifth level of "World Ode of the Phoenix"...
The sixth level of "World Ode of the Phoenix"...
…………
"Why are there only the fifth and sixth levels? What about the first four levels?" Yun Che raised his head and asked in surprise. He repeatedly explored the information in this jade stone several times, but could only find records of the fifth and sixth levels... There was no record of the first four levels at all!
Without the first four levels, how can one cultivate the fifth and sixth levels?
"This is indeed a huge pity, but I can't do anything about it." The Phoenix Spirit's voice was filled with a deep sigh: "This 'World Ode of the Phoenix' originally recorded the first to sixth levels in full, but before the first trialist arrived here, an accident happened."
"Back then, the Phoenix left two trial sites on this continent. One is here, and the other is in the distant and vast Divine Phoenix Empire. The trial site of the Divine Phoenix Empire was soon discovered, and the Phoenix Divine Sect was born from it. The trial site also became the exclusive forbidden area of the Phoenix Divine Sect. Later, the Phoenix Divine Sect became the first sect of that empire, and the empire was renamed the Divine Phoenix Empire. Even the capital was built near the Phoenix Divine Sect. As a result, the area where the trial site is located became the most prosperous place in the Divine Phoenix Empire. Human greed, deception, bad behavior, war... have existed for a long time, making the atmosphere of that area more turbid, thus infecting the Phoenix spirit in that trial site, making it have a will that it shouldn't have... until it betrayed the will of the Phoenix."
Yun Che: “……!”
"As a separate body of the phoenix soul, I knew of its existence at that time, and it also knew of my existence. After it developed a will that it shouldn't have, it actually thought of destroying me and this trial ground, wanting to become the only one on this continent. So it transferred its power to an ordinary firebird, came here, fought a fierce battle with me, and completely destroyed the jade stone that recorded the "World Ode of the Phoenix"."
"During the fierce battle, I also destroyed part of its World Ode of the Phoenix, leaving it with only the first to fourth levels of the World Ode of the Phoenix. Afterwards, I was no match for it, so I had to create the illusion that the flames were dissipating, and it left...but it didn't know that the fifth to sixth levels of its World Ode of the Phoenix were not destroyed by me, but cut off by me, which is the piece you are holding now. After that, I completely cut off the connection with its soul, so that it could no longer sense my existence and always thought that I was dead. I continued to inherit the will of the phoenix, guarding this trial ground, welcoming and monitoring all trial participants."
Yun Che opened his mouth slightly, as if he was listening to a fairy tale.
