After several rounds of drinks, Yan Ruyu looked at Ling Yun and said softly:
"I will now go into seclusion to fuse with my life essence."
Ling Yun gently took her slender hand and smiled:
"Good! You've found your own path along the way!"
Everyone looked at Yan Ruyu with curiosity, and the Phoenix Clan's high-ranking members looked at her with great anticipation, their eyes shining with excitement.
The Phoenix Clan is a powerful race renowned throughout the heavens and myriad realms, on par with the Dragon Clan.
But the strongest in history was the Phoenix Ancestor, who was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor before she disintegrated.
Because the path has come to an end, and becoming an immortal emperor is no longer possible, he would disintegrate and reincarnate to seek a continuation of the broken path.
Once the dead end is ended, Yan Ruyu will become an Immortal Emperor, and the entire Phoenix Clan will become an imperial clan among the demon races.
An imperial clan capable of going toe-to-toe with the Black Dragon Clan.
Currently, there is only one imperial clan in all the heavens and myriad realms: the Black Dragon Clan.
The Golden Dragon, Zhujiuyin, Phoenix, and Qilin clans, which originally had the potential to become imperial clans, all suffered a crushing defeat in the struggle between good and evil in the Chaotic Demon Realm. The Black Dragon clan seized most of the demon clan's fortune, thus enabling the Black Dragon Ancestral Immortal Emperor to achieve his position.
Feeling the intense gazes of the crowd, Yan Ruyu looked around at her clansmen and Ling Yun, and said solemnly:
"My path is the way of the sword, and in the future I will use the way of the sword to shatter the wall that leads to a dead end."
Continuing on the broken path, we embark on the road to heaven!
When Ling Yun first met Yan Ruyu on the Golden Cloud Continent, he asked her which lineage of cultivation she would pursue in the future.
Between fire and sword, she chose sword.
To continue down a dead-end road, the only way is to break down the old and establish the new.
The way of the sword is the way that can shatter all those who stand in its way.
Throughout her journey, Yan Ruyu remained quiet, silently cultivating her swordsmanship. Although she didn't possess Ling Yao's extraordinary talent for swordsmanship, she was still a formidable swordsman.
Upon hearing Yan Ruyu's words, all the phoenixes stood up in unison and said:
"Congratulations to our ancestor for finding the Great Dao!"
Yan Ruyu stood up, looked at all the clansmen, and spoke sternly:
"My people, from now on I will lead you to become an imperial clan!"
In the future, the Phoenix Clan will become an imperial clan that strikes fear into the hearts of all realms!
"Our ancestors were mighty!"
"Our ancestors were mighty!"
"Our ancestors were mighty!"
"..."
The phoenixes shouted in unison, their eyes filled with longing and admiration.
After calming down, Ling Yun glanced at A Bao and the others who were happily eating chicken, and smiled at Phoenix Immortal King:
"They have all reached the Dao Severing Realm. I would appreciate it if you could give them a Nirvana Transformation!"
After the Tribulation Transcending Stage comes the Dao Integration Stage.
After merging with the Dao, one must sever the Dao.
A Bao merged with the Dao of Tai Chi, Shangguan Hong merged with the Dao of the Spear, Xiao Yanran merged with the Dao of the Military Strategist, and Lin Moyu merged with the Dao of the Double Pupil Technique.
Lingxi, Lingshan, and the Eight-Colored Qilin are all pure-blooded demons who have merged with the Dao of their respective races.
After absorbing the essence of the Immortal Emperor, Ling An, the little Pixiu, had already become a Great Emperor. After Ling Yao awakened, she was also a Great Emperor at the peak of her powers.
The ultimate realm of cultivation is the severing of the Dao, which involves destroying the Dao that has been combined with it. Without destruction, there can be no creation, and the ultimate sublimation is the profound meaning of this realm.
The more thoroughly you cut off the ties, the wider your future path will be.
The combination of severing the path and nirvana will be even more perfect on the basis of ultimate sublimation.
He surpassed all geniuses in one fell swoop, standing out among the peerless talents of all realms.
Upon hearing that they were going to undergo Nirvana, A Bao and the others' faces immediately fell, and the chicken legs in their hands no longer tasted good.
They had heard of the tragic events that occurred during the Yellow Emperor's Nirvana.
They dared not disobey their elder brother's orders.
The next morning, everyone watched as Yan Ruyu entered the Phoenix Nest to begin her secluded cultivation to fuse with her life essence.
Immediately afterwards, A Bao, Ling Shan and the others were taken away by the Phoenix Immortal King to begin their Nirvana and Dao Severing. The two Great Emperors, Huang Ling'er and Hu Shuang, also went along, wanting to undergo Nirvana to lay a good foundation for their future advancement to True Immortal.
Ling Yao carried Ling An and the little phoenix as they roamed the Phoenix Territory.
"Shall we go explore the world around us?" Qiongqi suggested.
Ling Yun nodded slightly, "Sure, let's see if we find any good treasures!"
The golden lion grinned, "It's been a long time since we've looted a treasure vault. I hope we run into some fools who will cause us trouble, so we'll have a reason to loot the vault!"
The Great Sage waved his hand dismissively and said sarcastically, "How pathetic!"
Immediately, Lingyun, Qiongqi, the Great Sage, and the Golden Lion concealed their presence and left the Phoenix Territory to survey the surrounding worlds.
For a whole month, Ling Yun and his companions scanned tens of thousands of worlds with their divine senses, but they could not detect the existence of the treasure.
At this moment, they were in an extremely dark universe, in an area the size of ten star systems, without a single star.
From a distance, the place appears completely dark, a stark contrast to the dazzling starry sky all around.
"There must have been a fierce battle here, which shattered this place!"
The Yellow Emperor analyzed it.
The Great Sage shot out two golden beams from his eyes, using his Fiery Eyes to try and see if anything was hidden in the dark area.
However, he scanned the area but found nothing unusual.
The more this was the case, the more Lingyun and his companions felt that something was amiss. They had experienced many bizarre and strange things along the way, and they knew that things that seemed normal were often the most abnormal.
Just then, Qiongqi narrowed his eyes and suddenly looked in a certain direction. Then he reached out and grabbed a Great Emperor cultivator in his palm.
"You've been lurking in the shadows, watching us for a long time. What are you planning to do?"
"Senior, spare my life!" The Great Emperor cultivator immediately begged for mercy in terror: "I was just passing by. I saw that the four of you had terrifying auras and frightening cultivation levels. I was afraid of disturbing you, so I hid and waited until you left before coming out!"
Qiongqi said coldly, "Oh, is that so!"
"Absolutely true! I dare not lie in front of you, senior!" The Great Emperor cultivator was filled with fear and unease, as if what he said was true.
However, Ling Yun looked at him coldly and said in a deep voice:
"You're a member of the demonic path, aren't you!"
"Yes, sir!"
Ling Yun found the demonic aura emanating from the Great Emperor cultivator repulsive, but he wasn't about to kill every demonic cultivator he saw. He suspected that this person came from this dark universe.
"Even if you came from afar, you couldn't escape our divine sense. Did you appear out of thin air from the darkness? Tell me, what exactly is hidden here!"
Ling Yun scoffed, suspecting that a powerful figure from the demonic path was hiding in this extremely dark universe.
Although the demonic path is despised by all the heavens and myriad realms, it is still a great lineage and not to the point that everyone hates it. There is no need to secretly cultivate or promote the lineage.
There is only one reason why they are hidden in the darkness: the powerful demons are doing heinous and unspeakable evil deeds.
A flicker of panic crossed the Great Emperor cultivator's eyes. He inwardly cursed himself for coming out at this time, and hurriedly began to offer his excuses:
"My lord, you misunderstand. This place is a dark world with nothing hidden. You can sense it for yourselves if you don't believe me."
Snap!
Qiongqi slapped the Great Emperor cultivator, leaving only his head. Seeing that Qiongqi was about to search his sea of consciousness, he gritted his teeth and prepared to self-destruct.
To self-destruct in front of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is too naive.
Qiongqi pointed to the imprisoned primordial spirit and then explored its sea of consciousness.
"Something's definitely fishy here; it's hidden somewhere."
