The Xuanyuan Sword vibrated excitedly, continuously drawing out the purest blood power from the Divine Phoenix's body.
"ah--"
The Divine Phoenix let out a heart-wrenching wail, and large pieces of its red-gold feathers fell off.
The feathers flowing with lava turned to ashes in mid-air, revealing the rapidly shrunken body underneath.
She flapped her wings frantically, and the entire lava cave began to collapse in the violent tremors.
Li Lingge formed a seal with one hand, and the Chaos Dao Fruit bloomed with unprecedented light.
The four kinds of Dao rhymes intertwined into a net, forcibly fixing the collapsing space.
The shadow of the God-killing Spear suddenly grew, and the tip of the spear pierced into the center of the Divine Phoenix's eyebrows.
"Refine!"
With a loud roar, the huge body of the Divine Phoenix suddenly solidified.
She kept her wings spread out as if ready to fly, but she was as immobile as an insect trapped in amber.
Strands of golden-red blood were drawn out from the seven orifices and condensed into five dazzling blood beads at the tip of the gun.
Every drop of essence and blood contained terrifying energy fluctuations, and a miniature phoenix shadow floated on the surface.
The moment the fifth drop of essence and blood took shape, the crystal-like bones of the Divine Phoenix were suddenly covered with cracks.
The blue flame in her eyes dimmed rapidly.
"You will regret it, you will definitely regret it!"
Before he finished speaking, the shadow of the God-killing Spear suddenly shook.
The remnant soul of the Divine Phoenix let out a final scream, and something strange happened suddenly.
The five drops of essence and blood suspended in the air suddenly turned into streams of light and were about to break through the air!
Li Lingge had anticipated this, and the Chaos Dao Fruit instantly expanded its domain.
The five streams of light seemed to have hit an invisible barrier, revealing their true forms at the edge of the field.
The phoenix shadow on the surface of the blood essence let out an unwilling roar and attacked the barrier frantically.
"I underestimated you."
Li Lingge drew blood runes in the air. These runes were wrapped in blood essence like living things, and with each wrapping, the light of the blood essence dimmed a little.
When the last blood rune fell, the five drops of blood essence finally calmed down and turned into pigeon blood stone-like crystals that fell into his palm.
Liquid flame flows slowly inside the crystal, and the clear cry of a phoenix can be faintly heard.
"Well, the purpose of this trip has been achieved."
Li Lingge looked at the five drops of ancient phoenix blood in his hand, and a stone in his heart finally fell.
He entered the Taixuan Secret Realm just for the blood essence of the ancient divine phoenix. Now he only needs two things to refine the God-Forging Pill.
As Li Lingge and Nangong Qingxue disappeared at the end of the collapsed underground palace passage, the lava cave fell into silence.
Burning rubble continued to fall from the shattered dome, and the skeleton of a divine phoenix floated above the lava lake like the remaining embers after a grand funeral.
Suddenly, a barely perceptible flame ignited in the corpse's eyes again.
The dark blue flames in his eyes flickered, as if they would go out at any moment.
"Two ants..." The Divine Phoenix Remnant's voice was like a spider's thread in the wind. "When I leave this place, I will make you pay for it!"
"I'm afraid there's no chance of that."
A cold voice exploded above his head. The remnant soul of the Divine Phoenix looked up in horror and saw a figure slowly descending through the void.
The tattered Taoist robes of Taiqing Palace fluttered in the heat wave. The face that should have been as gentle as jade was now covered with demonic patterns, and purple-black flames danced deep in the pupils.
The remnant soul of the Divine Phoenix trembled violently: "You actually escaped?!"
"I have been waiting for this moment for a long time."
The Heart-Eating Demon Lord smiled and raised his right hand. When his five fingers spread out, a swirling black vortex appeared in his palm, and in the center of the vortex, the wailing of thousands of wronged souls could be vaguely seen.
The lava lake suddenly boiled, and the scattered red-gold bone fragments seemed to be summoned and rushed towards the whirlpool frantically.
The remaining soul of the Divine Phoenix screamed miserably and tried to escape but was held in place by an invisible force.
"No! You lowly monster are worthy of—"
"Noisy."
With a loud shout, a dark beam of light suddenly burst out from the top of the Heart-Eating Demon Lord's head.
A three-headed, six-armed demon god appeared in the beam of light, with six palms forming seals at the same time.
A terrifying devouring force erupted, and the skeleton of the Divine Phoenix melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into golden liquid and being sucked away.
“Ahhhh—”
The remnant soul let out a heart-wrenching wail. It felt that its last connection with the skeleton was being forcibly severed, and the last bit of strength in the bones was pouring into the body of the Heart-Eating Demon Lord like a flood.
The Demon Lord's body began to undergo horrific changes. The skin beneath his robes began to crack, revealing newly formed purple-gold demonic scales. His once handsome face became angular, and two curved demonic horns sprouted from his forehead.
The most terrifying thing was that the demonic energy surging around him condensed into a solid black flame in the void.
"It is indeed the essence of an ancient mythical beast."
The Demon Lord was intoxicated by the surge of power in his body and felt very satisfied.
The next moment, the entire underground palace shook violently, and the magma lake stirred up huge waves hundreds of meters high.
The remnant soul of the Divine Phoenix let out a final unwilling scream before being completely refined into a ray of golden light that sank into the Demon Lord's brow.
"boom--"
A tremendous momentum erupted from the Demon Lord's body, new demonic scales completely covered his entire body, and two hideous bone wings tore out from behind.
When he opened his eyes, his pupils had turned pure golden purple, and wherever his gaze went, the space was slightly distorted.
Snap——
He clenched his fist lightly, and spider-web-like cracks appeared in the void within a radius of a hundred feet.
The Demon Lord felt the power surging in his body, and a cruel arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He is now more than ten times stronger than when he took over this body.
Suddenly, he turned his head and looked in a certain direction.
There lay a piece of crystal fragment, reflecting his current appearance, with devilish horns on his forehead and bony wings on his back. There was no trace of the original disciple of Taiqing Palace.
