Chapter 36
The greatest opportunity in the Chongshan Secret Realm fell into his hands. As the secret realm was about to close, restlessness permeated the entire realm. The fighting between the cultivators escalated to an unprecedented level, with plots of interfering or killing people for treasures taking place everywhere.
03 Nestled on a branch of a tree, collecting fruits, quietly watching the scene not far away.
Golden-red flames flew wildly, and wherever the whip touched, wailing filled the air, and the splattered blood was instantly devoured by the flames. Feng Jue's face was as cold as ice, and he ended the cultivator's life without wavering amidst his painful pleas for mercy.
The battlefield became quiet, and the wind blew the fishy smell away into the distance, but it did not attract any spiritual beasts.
The surroundings were completely silent, not even the sound of birdsong, as Feng Jue had already cleared out the ferocious spirit beasts nearby. She stood in the devastation, her long whip dropping to the ground, her chest heaving.
From the tree, 03 picked two leaves and placed them on his head.
The tips of the young leaves rested on the two dark circles under its eyes. 03 was holding a matchstick in his pocket, thinking: Feng Jue is in a bad mood.
The number of Jindan-stage cultivators entering the secret realm was far less than the number of foundation-building and Qi-refining cultivators. When the secret realm still had a barrier, it would take a month or two to encounter other cultivators, but now - 03 glanced at the corpse burned to ashes at Feng Jue's feet, and continued to think: Greed is really terrible.
As a leader, it doesn't expect Feng Jue to take all the beautiful women in the world who can be involved with the protagonist. Why do these people still think they can defeat Feng Jue by relying on numbers?
But today, they encountered a Jindan stage spirit beast and two groups of people. Feng Jue has already changed two sets of clothes. How can she be in a good mood?
03, who had been collecting fruits from the tree for a day, picked another leaf and covered his head with it.
Not far away, Feng Jue put away his magic weapon and glanced at 03 from afar. 03 quickly lifted the leaves, picked the fruit that had been coexisting peacefully with it for the whole morning, flew over with it, and circled around Feng Jue.
"Feng Jue, do you want to eat the fruit first or take a bath first?" 03 asked.
Considering that Feng Jue had been very "busy" all day, it added, "Do you still want to take a shower?"
Phoenix Technique: "..."
What are you washing? I'll wash you first!
Feng Jue raised his hand, grabbed the fruit that 03 had picked and put it into the storage ring.
"There are still two days until the secret realm closes. This group of independent cultivators have started to use any means necessary to form gangs and kill any cultivators they see and steal their storage rings." Feng Jue's tone was full of disdain.
It's really hard for the host to punish evil and eliminate evil!
03 He raised the matchstick and tapped Feng Jue on the shoulder, asking, "Do you want me to come?"
Phoenix Secret
He washed his hands with water and said without raising his head, "You have no use for these little termites."
Okay, okay.
03Try hard to knock on Feng Jue.
Feng Jue looked up at the sun.
With two hours left until sunset, Feng Jue, a picky person, didn't want to bathe anymore, so he just picked a random direction and started walking. 03 squatted on her shoulder, looking at the map they had walked along, and took inventory of the things Feng Jue had obtained.
"Don't you want to open the storage rings of those monks and take a look?" 03 asked.
The bandits who attempted to rob money were robbed, and the magic weapon storage ring fell to the ground. Feng Jue casually put it into the storage ring and piled it in a small corner.
Feng Jue said unhappily, "It's a dirty thing. Go back and ask someone to clean it up."
03, who wanted to help Feng Jue clean up, circled around Feng Jue's shoulder out of boredom.
They were about to leave the secret realm, and time suddenly became precious, and the same was true for Feng Jue. Even if she didn't encounter the "big treasure chest", she would collect all the spiritual herbs and flowers she passed by into her ring.
03 also recorded the harvest very diligently.
The sun sets in the west and the tired birds return to their nests.
03 was staring at the birds flying around in the sky, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark cloud in the western sky. He raised his matchstick and said, "Feng Jue, look."
dark clouds.
Feng Jue raised his head.
I saw the dark clouds in the western sky expanding rapidly, covering half of the sky in a blink of an eye, pressing heavily on the mountains as if a storm was about to come.
Lightning flashed and crackled in the clouds, and a faint roar could be heard from such a distance.
The horror wasn't just the constant flashes of lightning; beneath the dark clouds, above the earth, the tallest mountain belched out thick smoke and dust, which continued to rise and disappear into the clouds.
Feng Jue asked in surprise: "Volcano?"
"boom!"
Thunder roared from afar. 03 watched as a purple lightning flashed across the ground, leaving a long, dark streak. He was also surprised: "Little Lei sneezed?"
Phoenix Technique: "..."
She said sternly, "Your friend fell asleep with the Asgard after escaping. It can't be it. There are things in the volcano and the clouds, and they look like they are huge."
As Feng Jue finished his words, another bolt of lightning struck. Through the lightning, a giant shadow could be seen in the clouds, wings spread, soaring through the dark clouds. Under the shadow of the giant bird, the roar of the beasts in the volcano swallowed the lightning and made the earth tremble.
03: "Wow."
A fight is about to break out.
Sand and rocks flew between heaven and earth, just like the chaos at the beginning of the world. Amidst the thunder, white lights lit up in various places in the secret realm.
The light flashed and then disappeared.
Feng Jue curled his lips and said, "It seems that these two spirit beasts are the most powerful ones in the secret realm. They should have their own territory. I don't know why they ran into each other. It must be someone's deliberate act."
The secret realm is about to end, and people who are willing to take risks for the opportunity will do anything. It seems that someone is trying to lure the two ferocious beasts together to reap the benefits, but the momentum is so great that it attracts other people as well.
Feng Jue, one of the others, explained to 03, "The white light you saw was the light from the cultivators who came in for adventure and shattered the jade tokens to leave the secret realm early. Most people don't want to take this risk."
It had to be said that this was a good time to leave. While those fierce men's attention was drawn to the fighting between the spirit beasts, they had to leave this dangerous place quickly. However, wealth and honor are sought in danger. 03 saw a flying light still flying towards the dark volcano in the gloom.
"Feng Jue, do you want to go?" 03 asked.
Feng Jue pondered for a moment, but before he could speak, a ray of fire suddenly shot up into the sky from the place where the battle was taking place. It flew over as fast as a meteor in broad daylight, and exploded into phoenix-shaped fireworks above Feng Jue.
Stars of firelight fell, and Feng Jue lazily raised his hand to catch a cluster of falling flames.
The flames revealed a middle-aged man.
Feng Jue: "White Mountain——"
03: "Bai Fenghui."
Feng Jue glanced at Qiu Tong unhappily.
Be careful, you can beat Tong up now if you want!
03 silently stuffed the [Bai Fenghui] data panel into his mouth. Feng Jue was still glancing at 03, seemingly trying to figure out how to stuff 03's ball in as well.
The system looked back innocently.
The flames that were ignored by people and the system jumped up, as if to show their presence. The leader of Baishui Sect looked disheveled, and it seemed that he had been bitten by an unknown animal on his shoulder, and blood was constantly flowing out.
"Palace Master Feng, you promised me that you would not let me die in the secret realm! Now I am trapped at the foot of the volcano. I hope that Palace Master Feng will come and save my life. I will be grateful!" Bai Fenghui said with an embarrassed look on his face, and the flames leaped up, flying towards the crater covered with thunderclouds like a guide.
Now I have no choice but to go.
He made a phoenix gesture to block the flying sand and rocks and keep up with the flames.
"Bai Fenghui is at the Jindan stage. I don't know whether it was the spirit beast above or below that injured him. These two spirit beasts should not be underestimated." Feng Jue said as he flew.
03Suddenly, he remembered the scene when he first entered the secret realm and Feng Jue was injured by the mountain-devouring beast while he could only watch, and he couldn't help but take out the small sword from his backpack.
Feng Jue, who was watching its every move, immediately asked, "What is our agreement?"
The bubbles swelled into a balloon and silently put the sword back.
03 He raised the matchstick and pulled the dark circles under his eyes, stretching them wide towards Feng Jue.
The system is watching you.
Feng Jue immediately reached out, picked up 03, and lowered it to the outside.
The dark clouds outside the barrier flowed backwards, looking at the flowing 03: "?"
Some people rush towards opportunities, while others rush away from opportunities.
A spirit boat came towards Feng Jue directly. A huge maple leaf emblem was engraved on the head of the spirit boat. It was the disciples of Qiu Shui Pavilion who had met many days ago.
Feng Jue stopped. Wei Yutong, the eldest disciple of Qiu Shui Pavilion, was standing on the boat with a gun in his hand, guarding the spirit boat. He looked at Feng Jue in surprise.
"Palace Master Feng! The two spirit beasts inside are the Fire Rock Dragon and the Thunderbird, and their cultivation levels are both in the late Golden Core stage! They are fighting, and many people have been dragged in and died for no reason. Don't go in!" Wei Yutong said anxiously.
Hearing Feng Jue's name, Qiu Shuangshuang stuck her head out of the window of the flying boat and shouted, "Palace Master Feng, it's too dangerous in there, don't go!"
"It's okay, you'd better leave the secret realm directly." Feng Jue said.
The two Pavilion Masters of Qiu Shui Pavilion both have water spiritual roots, and their direct disciple Wei Yutong naturally has water spiritual roots as well. Wei Yutong is now in the late stage of foundation building and seems to have made a breakthrough. The other people on the boat are also elite disciples of Qiu Shui Pavilion. Those cultivators who don't care about their lives will not care about the dignity of the sect at this time. Once the secret realm is opened, can those who died inside still go out to complain?
But Feng Jue was not afraid of a head-on confrontation with a Nascent Soul stage mirage, let alone two spiritual beasts in the late Golden Core stage?
Feng Jue smiled defiantly and said modestly, "It's not like this palace master hasn't killed Jindan-stage spirit beasts before." She took out her magic weapon, swung away a huge rock that was flying towards her, and continued to fly inwards regardless of the obstruction of the Qiu Shui Pavilion disciples.
"Palace Master Feng!"
Qiu Shuangshuang stuck her upper body out of the window and looked at the figure flying towards the intense scene, her eyes shining.
"Palace Master Feng is so cool!" She couldn't help but shout, suddenly turned around, grabbed the aqua-blue spear standing in the middle of the cabin, and jumped out of the window.
"I'll go help Palace Master Feng!"
The moment she jumped out of the window, all the disciples of Qiu Shui Pavilion on the boat rushed up, but they could only see her back "swaying" in the wind.
"Junior sister, you are crazy!"
"Junior Sister Qiu!"
"Qiu Shuangshuang!!" Wei Yutong's heart nearly burst out of her chest. She stamped her foot angrily, grabbed her second junior brother, and said, "I'll go get her. You lead the other disciples out of Feisha and immediately leave the secret realm. Return to Qiushui Pavilion and wait for us on the ship."
Second Division
My brother said with cold sweat on his forehead: "Yes, Senior Sister! Junior Sister Shuangshuang took Shui Longyin away!"
Wei Yutong's chest trembled as she flew away with a gun in hand. Everyone on the boat looked at her back worriedly.
03 Grabbing Feng Jue's clothes, it crawled out from the collar. Its body was warmed by Feng Jue's body temperature for a short while, and then it became cold again in the howling wind.
In the distance, the most ferocious and terrifying fight between spirit beasts since 03 arrived in this mission world was unfolding.
A fiery red lava dragon, covered in magma, emerged from the volcano, half of its body still inside the volcano. It raised its head and spit out flames towards the sky.
Dark clouds are pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it.
There are no cities in the secret realm, only rolling mountains. The once majestic mountains now look like helpless saplings under the dark clouds, trembling in the wind and thunder.
Thick clouds covered the tops of the mountains. A bird as big as a mountain was flying through the clouds. It had a slender body, but its outstretched wings were so huge that it gently flapped its wings, stirring up a strong wind.
Heavy rain was brewing, ready to fall at the perfect moment, dousing the surging lava. But the raging fire could not allow it to do so. The flames gushing toward the sky dispersed layer after layer of dark clouds, and the rain vapor evaporated in the flames before it could condense.
The sound of the volcanic eruption and the roar of thunder drowned out everything in the world. Even if a barrier was erected to block the billowing smoke and dust, it could not stop the sound that made the eardrums explode.
Fortunately, 03 has no ears.
03 raised the panel to show Feng Jue: "The oriole is behind."
Feng Jue nodded and chased the flames towards a certain direction at the foot of a distant mountain.
The magma rolled and flowed, but it avoided one direction. Bai Fenghui, the leader of Baishuimen, sat in the barrier with a pale face, looking even more embarrassed than when he asked for help.
Seeing Feng Jue really coming to save him, Bai Fenghui staggered to his feet, a surprised smile on his face: "Palace Master Feng, I didn't expect you--"
"Stop talking nonsense." Feng Jue threw out the flying magic weapon and said to Bai Fenghui, "Let's go."
Bai Fenghui paused, turning his head to gaze into the distance. The two ferocious beasts atop the towering peaks were still locked in a fierce struggle. The clashing pressure of their late Jindan-stage counterparts was terrifying, and cold sweats streamed down their cheeks. Bai Fenghui swallowed his saliva and said to Feng Jue, "Palace Master Feng, I don't want to leave yet. I want the Thunderbird's elixir!"
Feng Jue frowned, her eyes flickering beneath her long lashes as she glanced calmly at Bai Fenghui's back. She curled her red lips and sneered, "No wonder you're here asking me for help. But we agreed that I would only keep you alive. There's no reason for me to be your thug and snatch the Thunderbird's body from the Fire Rock Dragon!"
The implication was that if Bai Fenghui insisted on not leaving, she would just stand by and watch.
.
Bai Fenghui's face changed. He had not expected Feng Jue to be so cold and hard. He gritted his teeth and said, "The old Palace Master of Lanyang Palace cares deeply about the world and is willing to die for its people! As her successor, Palace Master Feng, you are too cold and inhumane! As long as you and I work together, we can take advantage of the Fire Rock Dragon and the Thunderbird when they are both injured in the fight and we will definitely kill them! Then you take the Fire Rock Dragon elixir and I will take the Thunderbird elixir. Isn't it a win-win situation!"
Feng Jue put away his flying magic weapon and sneered, "It seems you don't want to leave?"
Bai Fenghui remained silent.
The Fire Rock Dragon and the Thunderbird are not stupid because they can cultivate to the late Jindan stage. The spiritual pressure of the insects flying around nearby makes them alert. From time to time, flames or lightning fall from the sky, followed by the screams of the dead.
The wailing of death fell into the ears of the two people from a great distance. Bai Fenghui took a deep breath and persuaded Feng Jue again: "Palace Master Feng, Fire Rock Dragon and Thunderbird are extremely rare. Are you really not tempted?"
Naturally, she was moved, otherwise she wouldn't be standing here. Bai Fenghui was stupid and arrogant, but he said one thing correctly. Although she had spiritual poetry, Fire Rock Dragon and Thunderbird were still rare things.
So why did she cooperate with Bai Fenghui?
Win-win? She can win on her own!
Whether it's the Fire Rock Dragon or the Thunderbird, she wants them all!
Feng Jue sneered, grasped his life magic weapon, and whispered: "I will still keep my promise. If you are going to see the King of Hell while fighting with the Thunderbird, I will rush to rescue you before Wuchang."
As soon as Bai Fenghui said this, he knew the cooperation was over. He had never expected Feng Jue to actually not want to work with her. After all, he was also a Jindan-stage cultivator! Having stayed in the Jindan stage for many years and had rich experience, two Jindan-stage cultivators working together always had more opportunities than one fighting alone. Feng Jue was truly arrogant!
Those are two spiritual beasts in the late Jindan stage!
"Okay, okay." Bai Fenghui sneered. It didn't matter. Feng Jue would soon pay the price for her arrogance.
"Palace Master Feng, you—"
"Palace Master Feng!!"
Bai Fenghui's words were interrupted by shouts coming from far away. He froze, warily watching the two figures chasing him, one in front and one behind. Flames fell from the sky, heading straight for the cultivator in front who had called out the Phoenix Art.
In the blink of an eye, a blue light burst out from the person in front, and a long water-blue dragon flew out from her palm, opening its huge mouth to swallow the attack of the Fire Rock Dragon in the late Jindan stage.
03, who was clinging to the collar of Feng Jue's clothes, whispered, "Dragon."
Feng Jue was surprised, "Qiu Shuangshuang?"
"Qiu Shuangshuang!" Wei Yutong landed angrily, grabbed Qiu Shuangshuang by the back of her collar, and lifted her up.
Do you know how dangerous this place is? "
03 nodded.
Yes, it's very dangerous here, but you all talk so much.
Please note that you do not include its host.
Wei Yutong carried the struggling Qiu Shuangshuang into Feng Jue's barrier. Feng Jue felt that this scene was familiar, but now was not the time to pursue it. She looked at the excited Qiu Shuangshuang and the angry Wei Yutong and knew what was going on. A low laugh emanated from her chest.
"madness."
"Why not just send her on her way?" Feng Jue asked Wei Yutong.
Wei Yutong was filled with shame and bowed to Feng Jue. After all, she was her junior sister. If there was any chance of escaping, she should ask her master and mistress to do it.
She came here with great enthusiasm, but she noticed from Feng Jue's tone that she was being despised. The excitement on Qiu Shuangshuang's face was replaced by grievance. She showed Feng Jue the magic weapon in her hand and whispered, "But I brought the Water Dragon Song with me. This time, I will definitely not drag down Palace Master Feng!"
Water Dragon Song?
03 Pushing aside Feng Jue's hair, he looked at the aqua-blue spear in Qiu Shuang's hands. He saw that the spear was extremely beautiful, shimmering with the light of water, like a ladle of crystal blue from the sea.
If it were a little brighter and bluer, it would look just like its friend.
03 He wanted to take another look, but his vision went dark. Feng Jue raised his hand to stroke his hair, blocking the restless movement.
Feng Jue's expression was indifferent. Beside him, Bai Fenghui's face changed drastically. He hesitated and said, "Water Dragon Song? The Water Dragon Song that has cultivated spiritual intelligence in Qiushui Pavilion? Are you disciples of Qiushui Pavilion?"
Qiu Shuangshuang looked at the strange man in front of her doubtfully, raised her chin proudly, and turned to Feng Jue with a brilliant smile. She said, "Palace Master Feng, with Shui Longyin here, I can definitely help you! There are two spirit beasts outside, which one do you want to fight?"
Feng Jue scoffed and suddenly waved his hand to dispel the barrier. In an instant, a roar sounded like an explosion in his ears, and flames and lightning rained down from the sky. Qiu Shuangshuang immediately grabbed Wei Yutong's arm in fear.
That's it, who do you want to hit?
"Water Dragon Song is not something you can control. While those two ferocious beasts are still testing you, you still have a chance to leave." Feng Jue said to Qiu Shuangshuang and Wei Yutong, then raised his hand and made a "please" gesture to Bai Fenghui.
Get out.
Bai Fenghui's chest was filled with anger. He tried his best to maintain a calm smile and said to Feng Jue, "Palace Master Feng, don't forget your oath. In the secret realm..."
"I'll make sure you don't die." Feng Jue curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled at Bai Fenghui.
Mingming Feng Jue is such a beautiful woman, even in such a dangerous situation, her smile is still so attractive that people can't look away.
gaze, but Bai Fenghui felt a hint of... cruelty in this smile.
"Stop!" Bai Fenghui's eyes were dark as he retreated towards Feng Jue, covering the wound on his chest and flew away, disappearing in the black smoke.
03 whispered: "Bai Fenghui is a Jindan-stage cultivator and the head of the Baishui Sect."
You are so seriously injured, why don’t you take any elixir?
The system can see through the false pretense.
"Stupid." Feng Jue said indifferently, and suddenly swung the whip in a certain direction. A breaking sound was heard in the void, and the magic weapon that was used to deceive the eyes broke, revealing two embarrassed figures.
Qiu Shuangshuang: “Ah!”
There are actually people here!
Siyi glanced at Feng Jue and said calmly, "Greetings, Palace Master."
"After Xue Mengtao and I left the dungeon, Bai Fenghui followed us and captured us shortly thereafter. He must have been trying to use our lives to force the Palace Master to cooperate with him. He also stole our storage ring."
Feng Jue didn't look back, and casually threw out two bottles of spiritual medicine. Looking at the Fire Rock Dragon and Thunderbird that suddenly attacked head-on in the air for some reason, he muttered to himself: "The whole world is full of idiots."
Qiu Shuangshuang, feeling like an idiot, hugged Shui Longyin tightly. Behind Siyi, Xue Mengtao, who was the most seriously injured, raised her hand, wiped away the tears and blood bit by bit, and stared at the ground.
Siyi grabbed the medicine bottle that rolled over and said softly, "Thank you, Palace Master, for the medicine. I promise you that starting next month, there will be no more sects called Baishuimen in Dongzhou."
Qiu Shuangshuang trembled as she listened to their conversation and hid behind her senior sister.
Next month, that is—seven days later?
The secret realm is closed for two days, and there's still time to go back, hiss...
Qiu Shuangshuang trembled even more.
Feng Jue walked into the smoke and dust following Siyi's voice. Qiu Shuangshuang, who wanted to follow her, was grabbed back by Wei Yutong, and the barrier rose again.
Black smoke swallowed the red clothes, and a silver bead flew out from her hair. Just as she raised the matchstick and stretched, a hand reached out from below and snatched it back.
"03 has scanned and there is no one nearby." 03 said honestly. Tong wanted to breathe some fresh air.
The thick smoke from the volcanic eruption mixed with the dark clouds in the sky, and it was pitch dark everywhere. From time to time, there was rain of fire falling, and the earth was burning. It was so fresh!
Feng Jue mercilessly tucked 03 into his sleeve and said, "Just try to show your head!"
There were no telling how many treacherous people were hiding nearby, and she absolutely didn't want 03 to be discovered or coveted by anyone!
The ball rolled back and forth in Feng Jue's sleeves, reminiscing about the past.
Today's 03 is still
A system that cannot be seen by others.
well.
The monks who were still in the secret realm did not expect to encounter such a horrific scene just as the secret realm was about to close. Those with low cultivation watched from afar, while many people with high cultivation came over. They were horrified by the lives of the monks who were killed in the incident, but their desire to grab a piece of the pie did not disappear at all.
When two beasts fight, one of them will die. They don't covet the spirit beast pills, but as long as they have a part of the remains of one of the spirit beasts, they can make a fortune!
But all this must happen before the Fire Rock Dragon and Thunderbird finish their battle before the end of the secret realm.
With this in mind, the cultivator, concealed in the smoke, made subtle moves, constantly impersonating the abilities of either the Thunderbird or the Fire Rock Dragon, intent on igniting hatred between the two. It was unclear who had done what, or whether the two spirit beasts had finally lost their patience with each other.
The chaotic wind and clouds became more and more turbid, and a terrifying atmosphere filled the air.
Amidst the flames and thunder, Feng Jue concealed his presence and silently reached the bottom of the volcano.
03 inhale to monitor the temperature nearby: hot feet, hot feet.
The flowing magma was thick and had a strong color as it flowed along. Where it suddenly cooled down, it was gleaming with light. These were gem balls embedded in the lava, but they could not attract the attention of any monk.
But it attracted the attention of 03 balls.
03, who was trying to touch the gem ball, had just stretched out his matchstick when a sharp roar came from the thundercloud above, "Hand over my child!"
The system paused, pretending nothing had happened, and under Feng Jue's meaningful gaze, it took the initiative to slip into the host's sleeve. But the cuff was only the starting point of the system, not the end point!
03 Sticking to Feng Jue's arm, he moved up along the soft skin, arched in the sleeves, and finally came out from Feng Jue's collar with a "puff".
It touched Feng Jue's cheek to show its friendliness, but saw Feng Jue's eyes change from meaningful to angry.
03: “?”
What's wrong?
It didn't do anything.
"Feng Jue, your face is a little red." 03 said in surprise, "Are you hot?"
People at the Jindan stage of cultivation are not afraid of magma.
Feng Jue: "...Shut up."
She swung her magic weapon, and the fiery red whip attracted the magma and smashed it against the distant mountain wall, splashing out several golden-red flowers.
This is the time to applaud.
03 “Pa Pa” drum sticks.
However, the host's mood did not improve, and he glared at it.
Are you trying to flatter me?
Tong fell into deep thought.
One person dominates and who has the best eyes
When it was loud, the roar above became even louder. I didn't know whether it was the blood of the Fire Rock Dragon or the Thunderbird that fell. The reason for their entanglement was also clear.
The Thunderbird's baby is missing, and it is suspected that the Fire Rock Dragon swallowed its baby. The Fire Rock Dragon claimed innocence, saying how could it eat something that was not even enough to fill its teeth? It was really bad luck. The Thunderbird said, "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen."
The system stretched out a matchstick to braid hair, and while doing so, it said, "Novels are always like this. The villains and supporting characters will take the initiative to explain their motives. We should learn from their failures."
Phoenix Technique: "..."
You are quite right, but please let go of your matchsticks, because you are braiding my hair.
Feng Jue was embarrassed and angry. He raised his hand to grab the ball and threw out several protective amulets.
The anger of the two late Jindan spirit beasts brought double the attack. Amid the thunder, the protective amulet exploded with "bang bang bang bang" and was easily blocked by Feng Jue when it blocked her.
A talisman capable of blocking attacks from a Jindan cultivator was extremely valuable, and with a wave of her hand, she was able to acquire tens of thousands of spirit stones. Looking at the thousands of cultivators in this secret realm, only she possessed the strength to allow her to remain hidden.
The fight between the beasts was brutal and terrifying. A bloody rain began to fall from the sky. Just as Feng Jue showed an expression of disgust on her face, a ball, which was looking up at the sky, "whoosh" into her collar.
Phoenix Technique: "..."
Now you are smart, haha.
Of the lurking cultivators, they were the closest to the battlefield—they were the most dangerous. As two massive spirit beasts battled, lightning and fire mingled, and the tiny glimmer of light from the exploding protective amulet was drowned in the surging pressure.
Black smoke and dark clouds obscured the sky and earth, disturbing the stars. Above the sky, beyond the dark clouds, the stars still flickered according to the law, but the people trapped in it were unaware of the world.
It was too late to leave now. Wei Yutong sighed and looked at Qiu Shuangshuang who was holding Shui Longyin and was unaware of the danger, and felt a splitting headache.
The spirit beast roared in the distance, and the entire body of the Fire Rock Dragon rushed out of the volcano and flew into the clouds. Lava fell from its body, and it started to rain fire.
The thunderbird was not willing to be outdone and spread its wings to cover the sky.
Silver-white lightning struck the fire rock dragon. The giant bird and the dragon treated the sky as a battlefield. The grand scene vaguely resembled the ancient battle between dragons and phoenixes.
Tiny humans looked up, watching the terrifying and shocking scene, their hearts beating wildly with fear and excitement. Even when the sun shone brightly beyond the clouds, this place remained gloomy.
"The secret realm is about to close!"
The hidden person who wanted to take advantage of the situation gritted his teeth and rushed forward without any patience. Before he could get close, he was hit by the double attack of lightning and fire.
bridge.
"Ignorant fellow!" The Fire Rock Dragon spoke in human language, its fierce, cyan eyes glaring at the equally exhausted Thunderbird. "Do you want to die with me, giving these ants a break?"
Thunderbird laughed bitterly: "Then let's die together!"
It spread its wings and rushed forward with the determination to die together with the Fire Rock Dragon.
03, who was watching the live broadcast intently, noticed that Feng Jue had moved. The woman with black hair and a shawl looked down at it, the scarlet between her eyebrows still there, her eyes were stern, and the shadow of a phoenix appeared on her body.
Feng Jue didn't say anything. 03 seemed to hear the sound. It raised the matchstick and grabbed Feng Jue's clothes.
rush!
Amidst the shock caused by the collision between the late Jindan spirit beasts, the golden phoenix spread its wings and rushed to the center of the battlefield.
A clear, melodious cry shook the universe. Beyond the phoenix, a golden bell erupted in light, and countless scriptures materialized, swirling to protect the phoenix. A shockwave struck the bell, its demon-slaying, righteousness-defending tone resonating far and wide, shattering a corner of the dark clouds in the sky. Golden sunlight streamed down, landing on the phoenix and carrying it forward, plunging into the clouds.
In the thunderbird's frightened and angry eyes, the red whip carried a violent momentum, and the golden phoenix rushed into its eyebrows, rushed towards the spiritual vein, and crashed into the golden elixir.
"puff!"
Blood spilled, the dark clouds and thunder in the sky stopped, and the body of the thunderbird fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The long-awaited crowd rejoiced. Now, only a single injured Fire Rock Dragon remained! Just as its restlessness was about to materialize, a ball of golden red suddenly burst forth from the blazing sky. Feng Jue, resting on the Thunderbird's corpse, raised his hand and flicked his long whip. Countless balls of fire burst forth from the whip's wind, flying in all directions like a dragnet. Those cultivators who had originally intended to approach the Thunderbird's corpse were horrified and retreated in panic.
The Fire Rock Dragon, who was also attacked by flames, roared: "Human."
03 squeezed Feng Jue's collar and said in a calm and cold voice: "There is also a system."
Feng Jue stood with her feet lowered in the sea of fire, her pupils reflecting the flames beneath her eyelashes. She raised the corner of her mouth towards the Fire Rock Dragon and said, "Come and fight."
"roar!"
The moment Feng Jue appeared, the cultivators who had been hiding in the distance using various means were shocked.
"Someone actually got ahead of us?"
"Run! That's the Lanyang Palace Master!"
"Lanyang Palace..."
Instantly, countless yellow birds flapped their wings and fled. Qiu Shuangshuang, hiding at the outermost edge of the battlefield, watched the cultivators decisively give up and said in surprise, "Palace Master Feng is so famous! How could he make everyone retreat just by hearing his name, even abandoning the corpse of the thunderbird?"
Siyi, who was sitting next to him, smiled and watched the huge Fire Rock Dragon confronting him.
A tiny figure. Anyone who sees the Phoenix kill the Thunderbird with one strike will be shocked!
Wei Yutong folded his arms as he watched the humans and beasts fighting in the air, nodding his head. "Palace Master Feng is incredibly talented, intelligent, and hardworking. Her cultivation at such a young age is truly admirable. Among us cultivators, if anyone can battle the current Fire Rock Dragon, it can only be her. Palace Master Feng truly possesses the aura of the greatest of our generation!"
Siyi's smile deepened, and she said softly, "That's not the case. The Five Continents are full of talented people, and there are countless cultivators whose cultivation is higher than the Palace Master. These cultivators who left were simply not as good as the Palace Master, and they knew they couldn't snatch the Thunderbird from the Palace Master."
If the remaining ones come out to snatch them openly, then that's fine, otherwise...
Wei Yutong lowered his head and looked at Siyi. Both of them had similar understanding in their eyes.
Qiu Shuangshuang, who was sandwiched in the middle, looked around and scratched his ears.
What, what else? *
It seemed as if only flames remained in the world. The coiled Fire Rock Dragon stared at Feng Jue and the dead thunderbird at her feet, and said sternly, "Your cultivation level is a thousand miles behind mine. Killing the thunderbird was just a matter of time and place. If you want to fight me head-on, you can't win!"
"Let's both take a step back. If you take the Thunderbird's body away, I'll let you go."
Feng Jue raised his hand and put the Thunderbird's body into the storage ring, smiling proudly, "You are cowardly."
"presumptuous!"
The Fire Rock Dragon roared, and its huge body swam forward, and the phoenix shadow appeared again.
Fire collided with fire, and the magic weapon worn by Feng Jue shattered with a "bang", but she was not afraid at all. The long whip in her hand swung out thousands of fire dragons, which coiled around the huge head of the Fire Rock Dragon.
The Fire Rock Dragon laughed loudly, opened its huge head as big as a mountain, and bit the fire dragon into pieces. There was blood at the corners of its mouth, its eyes were filled with surprise, and the sound came from its throat.
"No wonder you're so confident, your mental skills are truly formidable! Unfortunately, you're no match for me!"
"roar!"
The fire rock dragon roared, the sky and the earth changed color, and the flames formed countless tornadoes, sweeping away in a mighty manner.
The monks who had been hiding fled in terror, but they could not catch up with the speed of the flames.
This Fire Rock Dragon actually still retains its strength!
Wei Yutong's face changed drastically. He summoned all the protective magic tools in his storage ring and shouted, "Junior Sister!"
Qiu Shuangshuang finally understood how to write the word "fear". Her face was pale and she raised the Water Dragon Yin, but the spear in her hand reflected the blue light of the fire, and she had no intention of attacking at all. Qiu Shuangshuang almost cried and shouted, "Move!"
On the side, Xue Mengtao grabbed Siyi's arm and said in surprise: "Elder
!”
"Your injury..."
"Nothing." Siyi raised her hand, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and lit the Suzaku lamp.
The first fire tornado was close at hand, rushing towards the people in the corner. Amidst Qiu Shuangshuang's screams, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky and hit the fire tornado.
"Run!" A hunched figure shouted in front of the fire.
Everyone was shocked, even Siyi's face was filled with disbelief.
"Mr. Xue?" Xue Mengtao was shocked.
Qiu Shuangshuang: "Benefactor?"
Before her words faded, the Water Dragon Yin in her hand suddenly rushed out of her palm and turned into a water dragon to crash into the fire tornado. The protective magic weapon that Xue Bufan obtained from his spiritual consciousness shattered into powder, and he was knocked away by the shock wave and fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The spirit roared: "Why are you saving these useless things! You can't die now!"
Qiu Shuangshuang rushed over and cried out in fear, "Benefactor, are you okay?"
Xue Bufan shook his head and just as he got up from the ground, he fell to the ground with a "bang".
Siyi frowned, glanced at Qiu Shuangshuang who was lagging behind, and finally at Xue Mengtao who had stopped halfway. She pursed her lips, walked over and stuffed the bottle of medicine Feng Jue had given her to Xue Mengtao, saying lightly, "Go."
Xue Mengtao looked at Siyi helplessly, and after hesitating, she walked in front of them. She bent down, handed the jade bottle to Qiu Shuangshuang, and then stepped back behind Siyi. Siyi's eyes moved, and she turned her head to look at Xue Mengtao, who had a calm face. Xue Mengtao smiled at Siyi.
Siyi curled up the corners of her mouth.
After getting the medicine, Qiu Shuangshuang hurriedly tried to give it to Xue Bufan. Wei Yutong, who was standing in front, looked at Xue Bufan's face with a gradually horrified expression: "My fellow Daoist, your face..."
Xue Bufan was also afraid and subconsciously touched his face, fearing that someone would discover his true identity from this face that he himself knew was disgusting and say something hurtful. But when he raised his hand, he found that the dull and old skin was replaced by young skin, and the effect of the camouflage talisman gradually disappeared.
He smiled awkwardly and looked up at Qiu Shuangshuang.
Qiu Shuangshuang slowly opened her mouth and watched the face of the benefactor who saved her once again change, revealing young and handsome eyebrows. Her heart beat uncontrollably, and the astonishment in her eyes just revealed -
"Clang."
The clear chirping attracted everyone's attention. Qiu Shuangshuang subconsciously turned her head and saw a scene that she would never forget.
It is also a scene that all the monks who are still watching this battle will never forget.
In the sky, countless phoenixes flew up, dragging long and gorgeous tail feathers, lighting up the sky, burning the sky, and guarding the golden-red flame in the middle.
.
The red sun is rising, and the sky is full of brilliant light.
The phoenix is flying, and its singing is harmonious.
03, who quietly climbed onto Feng Jue's shoulder, was stunned. Beside him was the warm skin of a human, but looking around, he saw countless radiant flaming phoenixes forming a vast sea of fire.
The firelight turned the silver universe red. It heard Feng Jue's low, lazy voice, saying softly, "A hundred birds pay homage to the phoenix."
The slender white fingers were raised in the air, interlocked, and pressed together. The golden feathers outlined on the bright red nails formed a complete shape. The woman standing on the sea of fire lowered her eyes, and there seemed to be compassion between her brows, but when she raised her eyes, the so-called compassion was immediately replaced by coldness and arrogance. Feng Jue chuckled and swung out the long whip.
"Hundred Phoenixes Pay Homage to the Phoenix."
"Clang."
“Clang clang.”
The Fire Phoenixes rushed towards the Fire Rock Dragon that was perched above the sea of fire. The Fire Rock Dragon roared, the Phoenixes cried, and no one dared to look away.
Among the people watching from afar, some opened their mouths wide and dropped their medicine bottles. Qiu Shuangshuang stared blankly at this shocking scene, her face flushed red, perhaps from the firelight or something else. She muttered, "Palace Master Feng is so cool! This move is so powerful! I want to learn it..."
"Senior Sister! I want to learn! I want to take Palace Master Feng as my master!!"
Qiu Shuangshuang suddenly jumped up, threw herself on Wei Yutong and shouted.
Wei Yutong: "..."
She said weakly: "You have water spiritual roots."
"I don't care! I want to learn! I'm going to change the door lintel today!"
Amidst Qiu Shuangshuang's high-pitched voice, the forgotten Xue Bufan silently picked up the medicine bottle, took the medicine, and looked up at the sky.
"What a powerful technique!" Ling Shi's voice fell into Xue Bufan's ears, sounding a little distorted. "The Palace Master of Lanyang Palace, her talent, technique, status, and financial resources are truly one in a million! She is enviable and should not be underestimated!"
Xue Bufan patted his chest, swallowed the medicine, and transmitted his voice, "So please ask Senior Sister to help. I will definitely be able to help Master find other spiritual fragments quickly."
Spiritual consciousness: "Shut up!!"
Xue Bufan: “?”
On the distant battlefield, a fire dragon crashed to the ground, but it wasn't dead yet. It swam in the lava, barely breathing, its green eyes glaring fiercely at Feng Jue. Feng Jue was also wounded, the runes on his robes shattered, and his hair was without a single red hairpin, leaving his long black hair flying in the wind.
Although she looked a little embarrassed, 03...
03 I think the host looks better!
"Leave the rest to me." 03 said in a rhythmic manner.
Feng Jue: "Shut up."
03: “?”
But you have
It’s been very hard! Don’t you really need a brave leader to help you?
Feng Jue took 03 off and put it into his lapel. 03, who was here for the first time, was hesitant and wanted to turn around, but his face got stuck in the middle of the turn.
03: "Hmm."
Budding.
Turn back with difficulty.
The Fire Rock Dragon exhaled blood and raised its head to the human cultivator, saying, "The secret realm will close in half an hour. All of you must leave here. Can you kill me within half an hour?"
Feng Jue wiped off the blood from the whip and said seriously, "Continue."
"Well, you are a rare person among the human cultivators I have met who I admire. If I die in your hands, my cultivation in this life will not be in vain!" The Fire Rock Dragon roared, "Come!"
03 Feeling the Feng Jue rushing forward, it crashed into the drum with a "puff", squeezing very hard, and finally found a very good position to get stuck.
The Fire Rock Dragon, who was fighting with Feng Jue, noticed that the face of the person in front of him changed horrifiedly, and a murderous intent even stronger than before swept over him.
"Okay!" roared the Fire Rock Dragon.
Both the man and the dragon were determined to kill each other, and the spiritual power in various places in the secret realm was turbulent, and it was almost time for it to close.
On the battlefield, the Fire Rock Dragon collided with Brahma Supreme, and the attack fell back on the dragon's body. It wailed and smashed into the volcano, splashing huge amounts of magma.
03 He pushed aside Feng Jue's clothes and applauded, "Victory is imminent!"
But its encouragement was only met with a sneer. Tong raised his head and thought innocently, "Why is Feng Jue angry?"
Feng Jue gritted her teeth, planning to settle the score with it later. Just as she was about to go down and end the Fire Rock Dragon's life, a person flew in from the sky and intervened. It was Bai Fenghui, who had escaped to an unknown place before.
"Hahaha! This is exactly what I've been waiting for! Boy, do you think I only wanted to use two hostages to coerce you? You're such a cold-hearted person, I'm afraid you wouldn't even react if I killed them right in front of you. How could I possibly place my hopes on them!" Bai Fenghui laughed heartily, his face slightly twisted with excitement. "I'm the one who attracted the Thunderbird! I've been waiting for this moment! I want to be the final winner! I want both the Thunderbird and the Fire Rock Dragon!"
He played the flute, and the sharp sound almost broke his eardrums. The eyes of the fire dragon hanging upside down on the top of the mountain gradually became straight, and its blue pupils shrank into a dot. It stood up as if it had a last burst of energy.
The flute in Bai Fenghui's hand exploded, and he clapped his hands happily, landing on the head of the Fire Rock Dragon. The Fire Rock Dragon was actually driven directly by him and obeyed his orders.
"Oh no! The Fire Rock Dragon first fought with the Thunderbird, and then was fiercely fought by the Phoenix Palace Master. When he was exhausted, he was bewitched by the flute sound, allowing him to take advantage of the opportunity!" Wei Yutong said angrily, "Who is this person?
How dare you treat the only descendant of the Phoenix Palace Master like this!"
Qiu Shuangshuang was stunned for a moment, wondering if the Phoenix Palace Master her senior sister mentioned was Feng Jue's mother? The elder who had killed the leader of the Jiutian Sect hundreds of years ago, leaving behind a legacy of illness and no hope of ascending, yet had lived to become a legend?
Feng Jue shook off the remaining blood on his hand and said contemptuously: "There is a saying that villains die because they talk too much."
After saying that, the phoenix shadow spread its wings again and rushed forward with the Phoenix Technique.
As Bai Fenghui faced the Phoenix Technique, the smile on his face suddenly vanished the moment the flames descended. Having first killed the Thunderbird and then engaged in a fierce battle with the Fire Rock Dragon, the Phoenix Technique still had some energy left! The terrifying aura permeated the air, sending Bai Fenghui's heart trembling.
He took a deep breath, blocked Feng Jue's attack, and shouted, "How long can you hold on? Have you forgotten your mother? How did your mother's mother die?"
Bai Fenghui laughed arrogantly. This time it was his turn to look at Feng Jue with disdain, trying to break through Feng Jue's defenses.
03, who was nestled in Feng Jue's chest, moved and opened his eyes wide.
"Shut up." Feng Jue said coldly.
"The Baishui Sect and the Lianshan Sect are enemies for generations. Before you were born, the old palace master arranged your marriage with that kid from the Lianshan Sect. I went through a lot of trouble to find out your secret! Feng Jue, your mental method is incomplete! Every time you practice your mental method, you burn your lifespan! The more you use it, the sooner you die! No matter how glorious your Feng family is, you are all destined to die early!" The more panicked Bai Fenghui became, the louder he shouted.
03 suddenly came out: "Feng Jue, I'll do it."
"No need." Feng Jue pushed 03 back, looking at Bai Fenghui as if he were looking at a dead person, and raised the corners of his mouth indifferently, "I don't need you."
"I want to come." 03 was unyielding.
"Can't."
"Phoenix Technique."
"No."
After a quick exchange of words, Feng Jue directly asked Bai Fenghui, "Do you know why I let you go?"
She sneered, and her disdainful voice fell into Bai Fenghui's ears: "From the beginning to the end, I have never taken you seriously."
It's you who's seeking your own death!
"you!!"
The laws of nature are cyclical, and retribution is inevitable. The two words of Feng Jue shook Bai Fenghui's heart. His heart was filled with anger and fear, and he slapped the Fire Rock Dragon with jealousy. The controlled Fire Rock Dragon let out a long roar and rushed forward desperately.
Feng Jue's expression changed, and he was about to activate his inner energy to resist again when his wrist suddenly lightened. Ling Shi, who had been dormant for a long time, roared, transformed into his true form, and fearlessly rushed towards the Fire Rock Dragon. Flames flowed from its body, and lightning trembled in the sky, as it was about to break through.
"roar!"
Ling Shi, who was protecting her master, bit the throat of the Fire Rock Dragon. The scales on her body were shattered by the pressure of the Fire Rock Dragon, which was much taller than her, and blood flowed out.
"Lingshi!" Feng Jue and 03 shouted at the same time.
The controlled Fire Rock Dragon moved its pupils at this time. Bai Fenghui thought he could control the Fire Rock Dragon for a long time, but he didn't expect that another dragon would appear halfway and awaken the Fire Rock Dragon's intelligence!
"Roar." The Fire Rock Dragon, in the late Jindan stage, easily shook off Ling Shi and also threw Bai Fenghui out. Bai Fenghui crashed into the mountain peak, blood gushing from his mouth and nose.
After waking up, the Fire Rock Dragon stared at Ling Shi, its cyan pupils moving with a look of surprise and melancholy. It spit out a ball of golden light, unexpectedly giving up half of its cultivation. Ling Shi turned around and looked at Feng Jue.
Feng Jue nodded.
Ling Shi had just opened his mouth to swallow the golden light, and the Fire Rock Dragon, which had given up its cultivation, became much smaller, looking hatefully at the human who was controlling it.
Feng Jue said slowly, "Don't worry."
The Fire Rock Dragon then carried its injured body and swam back into the magma little by little.
03 said: "It doesn't want to die."
Feng Jue sneered: "If you can live well, who wants to die?"
03Don’t speak, just look up.
A pair of big eyes appeared in the gap, staring at her.
Feng Jue was furious and said, "Get out of here!"
03 I won't roll, because this place is very solid, like a seat belt. Feng Jue landed beside Bai Fenghui with a rage.
"Puff... cough cough!" Bai Fenghui twisted on the ground in fear, like an ugly, disgusting bug on the side of the road. His body dragged a long trail of blood on the ground and trembled. "You can't kill me! You promised not to kill me!"
Feng Jue's face was as cold as ice as he walked towards the firelight step by step.
She is so young, beautiful, proud, promising and high-handed. It seems that no one in this world can look her in the eye or treat her peacefully.
Everyone was despised equally by her.
Bai Fenghui took a deep breath, his vocal cords like a broken bellows. When the arrogant Lanyang Palace Master approached, hatred flashed in his eyes. He mobilized all his spiritual power and shouted with all his might.
"You must promise everyone in Lanyang City that I will never die in the secret realm! Feng Jue, I will humiliate you!"
A silver light flashed and pierced into Bai Fenghui's sea of consciousness.
Bai Fenghui's smile suddenly froze on his face and he lowered his head in disbelief.
On his stomach, in this volcanic hot place, a layer of ice actually formed, sticking firmly to his clothes, but making his soul as cold and dead as ice. And in his sea of consciousness, on the round golden elixir that was about to explode and burn others, a small sword hole suddenly appeared, and then the egg shell broke.
The sound of "pa pa" breaking continued.
Until the last "pop", the frost-covered golden elixir fragments fell, the sea of consciousness collapsed, and the spiritual veins were shattered.
03 imitated the Phoenix Technique and swung the small sword, muttering: "Why are they all going to self-destruct?"
Feng Jue sneered and looked up at the sky.
The flames dissipated in the clear sky, and ripples appeared in the boundless blue sky. The secret realm began to expel the monks who had been causing chaos in the secret realm for half a year.
Along with the expulsion came a sudden snowfall.
"It's snowing?" Qiu Shuangshuang stretched out her hand in surprise to catch the snow, only to find that it was fine ice.
"Mr. Xue, look, it's snow!"
Xue Bufan came back to his senses and said quickly: "Oh, oh."
He scratched his head and looked at Feng Jue again. The sword energy that had just been released by the sword was clearly the sword intent inherited from Master. He was surprised and thought, "I didn't expect Senior Sister to have such a remarkable mental method. She must have practiced Master's sword technique. But she clearly has a fire spiritual root, so how could her sword technique produce such a terrifying ice? Could it be that Senior Sister has dual spiritual roots?"
At Feng Jue's feet, bathed in snow, a man lying in a pool of blood kept repeating the same words. "Promise you won't kill me..." His pale face revealed the regret and fear of a loser.
Feng Jue brushed off his clothes, swung out the long whip, hooked it around Bai Fenghui's neck, and took a step forward.
The world changed, and the heavy snow in the secret realm seemed to extend outside the secret realm. It was winter outside, and the mountains and hills were all white.
Feng Jue swung the whip, and Bai Fenghui rolled several times on the ground, staining the ground red with blood. He lay trembling on the ground, mumbling something. Feng Jue showed a bored expression, took out the sword she had used to cut the corpse of the spirit beast in the secret realm from her storage ring, and walked step by step to Bai Fenghui.
She raised her sword.
Bai Fenghui raised his head stiffly, his pupils constricted.
A strange silver-white object emerged from Feng Jue's chest, crawled to his shoulder, slid down his arm, and landed on Feng Jue's wrist. 03 jumped and pressed down Feng Jue's wrist.
"Puff."
The sword blade pierced into Bai Fenghui's chest, ending his life in an instant.
"I promise that you will not die in the secret realm. I did it." Feng Jue sneered, took the silver circle in his palm, and left with a flick of his sleeve.
On the snow, Bai Fenghui opened his eyes wide and looked up at the sky, the afterimage of death lingering.
… Turns out, there really is a ball.
