As the white mist dissipated, a golden bird silhouette emerged from it, piercing through the rooftop and emitting a clear phoenix cry.
Upon hearing the phoenix's cry, Ruoruo and Feng Qiwu felt half of their fatigue disappear, revealing joyful expressions.
The golden bird, with its long tail feathers, circled in the air several times. Phoenix True Fire surrounded the phoenix like auspicious clouds, then transformed into red fragments to pave the way for the phoenix.
The golden phoenix cried out again, then turned and plunged into the white mist from the rooftop. As the golden light fell, the white mist gradually dissipated.
Ruoruo's eyes slowly widened, and she couldn't help but soften her breathing.
Feng Qiwu's hand seals froze, and she stared blankly at Mo Jinyan.
Mo Jinyan's heart skipped a beat: "No way, I failed again?"
Ruoruo shook her head desperately, and Feng Qiwu shook his head along with her.
Both children were shaking their heads so hard they were practically rattles.
Then Ruoruo pounced on him: "Third Brother! Watch closely!"
Mo Jinyan was stunned for a moment, then quickly stretched out the tip of his wing, only to see five fingers with distinct joints, snow-white and translucent skin, and long, slender fingers.
That’s clearly a human hand.
He hugged Ruoruo tightly and quickly summoned a water mirror.
She couldn't help but reach out and slowly touch her face.
The boy in the mirror was strikingly handsome. His meticulously sculpted features combined to create a blend of softness and strength, like a steel blade wrapped in silk. A few red lines at the corners of his eyes, like tail feathers, added to his lively appearance.
It's incredibly beautiful.
Mo Yunlan shook his head with a sigh: "As expected of a male bird of the bird clan, with such a handsome appearance..."
As everyone knows, female birds of the bird race are generally less attractive, but male birds are all exceptionally beautiful. However, Mo Jinyan, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, is still among the best even in the bird race.
He hadn't taken human form for over three hundred years, but once he did, he immediately captured the little girl's attention.
Mo Yunlan stretched out his finger and pinched Ruoruo's chin: "Who is more handsome, me or your third brother?"
Ruoruo glanced back at her second brother's fox-like eyes, then at her third brother's peach-blossom eyes, her little face serious as she held one of them in each hand: "They're both beautiful, Ruoruo likes them both."
She'll definitely be as good-looking as her brothers when she grows up.
The little girl was overjoyed and clung to her two older brothers, unwilling to put either of them down.
Mo Jinyan looked at himself in the mirror from left to right, a silly smile appearing on his handsome face: "Oh my, I never thought I could be so good-looking. I really am the most suitable person to take human form."
The previous three hundred years were completely wasted.
"How is the Third Prince's cultivation going?" The group was too busy looking at faces to care about anything else, but Yuebai was more reliable and asked the most crucial question.
Mo Jinyan was unable to take human form or cultivate, relying entirely on his innate foundation to maintain his Xuanxian level. Now that he could take human form, his physical problems should have been resolved.
Mo Jinyan raised the corners of his lips triumphantly, and with a flourish of his eyebrows, he gently grasped his hand, and a ball of extremely pure Phoenix True Fire emerged from his palm.
The surrounding space rippled under the scorching heat of this phoenix fire.
Mo Jinyan took out a spark from the fire, squatted down, and handed it to Ruoruo: "This is the real Phoenix True Fire. Medicines refined with Phoenix True Fire can be improved by a whole grade and can burn off impurities more quickly. I'm giving you this spark so that you can refine pills more easily in the future."
Strangely enough, Ruoruo has an exceptional talent for alchemy, but from the very first time she tried to refine pills, she has always used Mo Jinyan's Phoenix True Fire. She is unable to control her own spiritual fire, which burns spiritual energy, very smoothly.
Even though Mo Jinyan was infertile at that time, and his Phoenix True Fire was ineffective against top-grade pills, it was perfectly fine for Ruoruo to use.
However, the troublesome thing is that Ruoruo has to start the fire from him every time she refines pills.
Fortunately, Mo Jinyan stayed by Ruoruo's side the whole time; otherwise, Ruoruo would have had some trouble using fire when refining pills.
However, Ruoruo's alchemy skills are improving rapidly, and the Phoenix True Fire she used to have is now sometimes unable to keep up with her usage.
Mo Jinyan has now successfully transformed into human form, making up for his deficient talent. The phoenix fire seed he separated is of even better quality than the previous phoenix fire.
If you have this seed of fire, you can ignite the Phoenix True Fire from it at any time, and you will no longer have to worry about the fire going out halfway through alchemy.
"Third Brother, are you alright?" Ruoruo took the torch and before she could even feel happy, she noticed that Mo Jinyan's face was slightly pale.
The hasty separation of the fire seed from her after the transformation was somewhat too taxing for Mo Jinyan.
However, the little phoenix was eager to show off its feathers, proudly raising its head: "What is this little loss? I am now a Golden Immortal, a true phoenix, just a spark."
"Third Brother is really amazing." Ruoruo happily put away the fire.
What Ruoruo didn't know was that, apart from the primordial essence fire, a phoenix only had this one spark.
Otherwise, the Phoenix Clan would have spread the fire throughout the entire Immortal Realm to fight against the Demon Clan long ago, and would not have ended up being slaughtered by the Demon Clan.
At this moment, Feng Qiwu carefully moved over and tugged at Mo Jinyan's sleeve: "Your Highness Phoenix, could you please not form a contract with the paulownia tree yet? Wait until I grow up before forming a contract with it, okay?"
His eyes sparkled as he looked at Mo Jinyan with a mixture of longing and adoration.
Mo Jinyan snorted: "You didn't have this attitude before."
Previously, Feng Qiwu only had eyes for Ruoruo and didn't treat him like a phoenix at all.
“You used to look like a little chick, and I couldn’t recognize you as a phoenix,” Feng Qiwu said matter-of-factly.
Mo Jinyan, enraged, flung his sleeve and said, "Fine, you look down on chicks, so you look down on the bird race and the phoenix. I won't form a contract with you."
Feng Qiwu was, after all, a child at heart. He was momentarily awestruck by the phoenix and instinctively sought a contract. However, Mo Jinyan's ruthless rejection left the child feeling wounded. His eyes instantly reddened, and he turned his head away.
"Hmph, I will become a divine-grade tree in the future, the strongest paulownia wood of the paulownia clan. If you don't form a contract with me, I won't form a contract with you either. Let's see who suffers."
Ruoruo was confused: "What contract?"
Mo Yunlan picked up his younger sister who was alone and rubbed her chubby cheeks: "The Phoenix Clan and the Divine Wutong Wood Clan have been on good terms since ancient times. In the ancient times before the Jianmu tree fell, when the Six Realms were not yet separated, the Phoenix Clan and the Wutong Wood Clan lived together."
They share a very special pact, becoming each other's symbiotic race. From then on, if one cultivates, both will receive the same improvement. In battle, their combat power can even be tripled. When the two races join forces, they become one of the most warlike groups in the Six Realms.
Ruoruo not only widened her eyes, but also said with some envy, "That's great. If two people cultivate together like this, wouldn't they be several times faster than others?"
She also wants to contract with her own companion.
However, Ruoruo also had some doubts.
"Since they were such good friends, why did one of them go to the Realm of Immortality and the other to the Immortal Realm?"
Shouldn't we always live together?
