"Don't be surprised. His breath is in your blood. I won't hurt you." I don't know whether he saw Mu Hanyan's surprise or had already guessed that Mu Hanyan would have doubts, the Phoenix Remnant Soul continued.
"Him?" Mu Hanyan asked subconsciously.
"He is the supreme king of my thousands of beasts, Aolai Beast Lord." Phoenix said slowly.
It was Aolai, Mu Hanyan suddenly realized. Aolai had once been her mount, and they must have had a life contract. His divine consciousness was imprinted in her blood. It was for this reason that the phoenix's remnant soul hadn't harmed her.
"I can give you this Nirvana Fire. But there is one condition: you must preserve a trace of the fire, help me find the descendants of the Phoenix Clan, and pass the fire on to them.
If they leave the Holy Continent, they may never be able to condense the pure fire of Nirvana again, and will die out sooner or later. Only by leaving behind the fire can we save our Phoenix clan.
Do you agree?" the Phoenix Soul asked, its voice low and sad.
"Okay, I promise you." Mu Hanyan said without hesitation.
After all, the Phoenix Clan's current plight was caused by her, so how could she refuse? Furthermore, she needed the Nirvana Flame to repair Liuguang's bloodline, so she simply couldn't refuse.
"Thank you." After the Phoenix's remnant soul said this, the sacred and ethereal shadow suddenly exploded, turning into a ball of magical fire rain, enveloping Mu Hanyan.
Completely surrounded by the Phoenix Nirvana Fire, Mu Hanyan could only then clearly sense its vastness and majesty. Taotie was right. Apart from the divine beasts with their formidable physiques and bloodlines, she couldn't think of anyone else who could withstand the tempering of the Nirvana Fire.
If it were other beastmen or human cultivators, they would not be able to bear it unless they surpassed the cultivation limit of the Holy Continent and reached the realm of humans who broke the void.
However, at the moment when the residual soul of the Phoenix Chief disappeared, a soul mark appeared in her blood. It was because of the existence of this mark that she was not affected by the fire of Nirvana at all.
"Huff, huff." Liuguang crawled out from her arms. The little pig head looked around. Facing the fire of Nirvana, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he jumped out with a cheer and bathed in the flames.
Rays of fire flowed across its body, and the little guy even squinted his eyes in satisfaction, murmuring comfortably.
Soon, a beast-shaped shadow appeared behind it, majestic and extraordinary, yet full of hazy beauty.
Qilin, it is actually the mythical beast Qilin!
Behind him, Taotie was stunned again.
He never imagined that the Qilin clan still had descendants left in the Holy Continent, and judging from their appearance, they were clearly Mu Hanyan's pets.
Looking at Mu Hanyan again, there was a bit more awe and yearning in his eyes.
Seeing the beast-like shadow behind Liuguang, Mu Hanyan's heart finally settled down. Clearly, its bloodline was being tempered by the Phoenix Nirvana Fire and she no longer had to worry about it.
It is estimated that it will take a long time for Liuguang to fully recover. Taking advantage of this time, Mu Hanyan began to study the Nirvana Fire.
Anyway, with the soul imprint left by the Phoenix Clan Leader, the Phoenix Nirvana Fire posed no threat to her, so Mu Hanyan tentatively absorbed the fire into her meridians.
The impurities in her energy and spiritual power turned into nothingness directly under the tempering of the Nirvana Fire, and her energy and spiritual power became extremely pure.
Mu Hanyan was overjoyed. No matter how high their cultivation level, or how refined their techniques, whether they were swordsmen or priests, impurities would always be present within their vital energy or spiritual power. The capacity of the human meridians and sea of qi was limited, and so was her heart meridian. Excessive impurities would inevitably hinder their cultivation. This was also the reason why many practitioners, with increasing strength, experienced slower progress. Many sword masters had diligently cultivated for centuries without making any progress, having spent their entire time clearing away impurities.
When she was in the Holy Court Continent, her foundation was extremely solid, and she had undergone several meridian cleansing and marrow cleansing sessions, so this problem was not obvious. However, after coming to the Continent of Gods, her strength increased too quickly. In just over a year, she had acquired strength that most priests could not achieve even after a lifetime of hard training. Naturally, there were many impurities in her spiritual power. Originally, she was worried that when she reached the peak of the Divine Heart Priest, this problem would seriously affect her further breakthrough and promotion. Now, with the Phoenix Nirvana Fire, this problem was solved in advance.
Mu Hanyan’s surprises did not end there. As she continued to absorb the Nirvana Fire, another surprise appeared.
Her mind once again underwent subtle changes, just like the last time she refined Zhao Zhiyuan's five-colored soul bead. However, this time, the changes were even more obvious.
Mu Hanyan clearly felt that her spiritual consciousness had become unusually solid. Faintly, it even gave rise to the same spirituality as the Primal Chaos Sky Fire and the Hanxiao Divine Sword. It was connected to her spiritual consciousness, yet there was also a sense of separation from it.
It is clearly my own divine consciousness, how could it be possible to give rise to separate spiritual entities?
Mu Hanyan's mind suddenly flashed with the scene of her previous life saving Jiang Qiling. It was with the help of that phantom that was almost identical to herself that she was able to save Jiang Qiling and eventually influenced her to follow her wholeheartedly.
In Luoshenyuan, after the death of the Divine Martial Realm master named Qiu Dangya, a figure that looked exactly like him but was only the size of a palm appeared. It was this figure that almost gave them the most fatal blow.
Samurai Shodown! Could this be the origin of Samurai Shodown?
Compared to the tempering of spiritual power, this is the real surprise.
After all, there are many ways to refine spiritual power and energy. If you can't find a way, you can still achieve it through continuous hard training. However, not everyone can possess a Divine Martial Samurai. Whether in the Holy Court Continent or the Continent of Gods, Mu Hanyan had never heard of the existence of a Divine Martial Samurai. Obviously, this exceeded the cultivation limit of the Holy Continent. Only in another higher plane - the Divine Martial Realm - could one possess a Divine Martial Samurai.
Although her mind only possessed a trace of mysterious spirituality and was far from comparable to a true divine warrior spirit, it was precisely because of the emergence of that trace of spirituality that it meant that she had stepped into a new threshold of cultivation and truly embarked on a path of cultivation that surpassed all practitioners in the Holy Continent.
Time passes slowly.
"Mother..." After an unknown amount of time, a voice full of affection called out to me.
Mu Hanyan suddenly opened her eyes and returned to reality.
The dazzling and mysterious rain of fire outside has disappeared, and a cluster of flames only the size of a little fingernail floats in front of him, as weak as a blade of grass.
Behind the flames, Liuguang was looking at Mu Hanyan with tears of joy in his eyes.
