Chapter 168: Scarlet Phoenix Tribulation VS Fiery Sun True Flame, all’s fair in war, despicable outsider!
"Listen carefully!!!"
When the Three-legged Golden Crow saw Di Ting appearing in front of him, his eyes immediately became fiery.
And these eyes blazing with fire are not just an adjective, but a real scene that happened to the Three-legged Golden Crow.
In the sky, the scorching sun flame in the body of the three-legged golden crow was released without reservation.
The terrifying scorching sun flame transformed into a small golden sun, hanging high in the air.
Facing this little golden sun, let alone Di Ting below, even Lu Chen felt some pressure from the flame.
After all, this time the Fiery Sun True Flame is not a low-profile version imitated by Di Ting.
Rather, it was a terrifying flame cast by the Three-legged Golden Crow himself.
The three-legged golden crow symbolizes the sun in mythology.
Although it is still in its infancy at this time.
But the strength it displayed is no longer comparable to that of ordinary beasts from the mountains and seas.
Considering the power of this little golden sun, an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator would definitely not be able to withstand it.
And facing the three-legged golden crow that opened fire at full power right from the start.
This time, Di Ting did not show any fear or run away as he did in the previous times.
Instead, he appeared very confident.
Seeing this scene, the Three-legged Golden Crow, while angry, also sensed something was wrong.
The reason why this guy Di Ting is so confident is that his strength has improved and he feels that he can compete with himself.
Or does it think that the two helpers around it can help it defeat itself?
The three-legged golden crow instinctively thought it was the latter.
And Di Ting, who heard the Three-legged Golden Crow's inner voice, shouted immediately: "Yes, you guessed it right!"
"Guardian Mu, I leave it to you."
Mu Xiaoye nodded, then walked out eager to try.
In fact, Mu Xiaoye had been eager to try it since the moment she saw the three-legged golden crow.
So much so that the Phoenix Tribulation Fire in her body began to boil.
This feeling of blood boiling was something Mu Xiaoye had never experienced before.
It was as if the Phoenix Tribulation Fire in the body wanted to compete with the Fiery Sun True Flame of the Three-legged Golden Crow.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoye immediately clenched his fists.
The next second, a large number of red lines emerged from her skin.
Immediately afterwards, countless Phoenix Tribulation flames were released from her body.
And began to confront the scorching sun true flame of the three-legged golden crow in the sky.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen and Di Ting tactfully stepped aside.
It’s not that Lu Chen and Di Ting don’t want to help, but Mu Xiaoye asked for it himself before coming.
The three-legged golden crow itself was one of the exotic beasts from the mountains and seas that Mu Xiaoye wanted to contract when he entered the mountain and sea world.
And because the strange beasts in the mountains and seas are generally arrogant.
If they defeat the Three-legged Golden Crow in a three-on-one battle, there is no guarantee that it will not be convinced and refuse to sign a contract with Mu Xiaoye.
Therefore, Mu Xiaoye took the initiative to ask that she be allowed to deal with the three-legged golden crow alone.
Lu Chen initially had some doubts about Mu Xiaoye's request.
But after he knew Mu Xiaoye's foundation-building quality and her current strength.
Lu Chen felt that with Mu Xiaoye's current strength, he might really be able to subdue the Three-legged Golden Crow in a one-on-one situation.
After all, Mu Xiaoye's foundation-building quality was the same as his, a first-grade Dao immortal foundation! Just like Lu Chen, after completing the first-grade Dao immortal foundation, he obtained a special blessing called the 'Immortal Lotus Embryo'.
At this time, Mu Xiaoye also received a powerful blessing from the Great Dao.
[Blessing of the Great Dao: Nine Phoenix Flame Corpses]
[Effect: Phoenix flames turn bones into spirit bodies. Can improve physical fitness and spiritual power tenfold. Immune to most fire-related magical powers, improve the understanding of the great way of fire. Every time you are reborn from the fire, you have the opportunity to break your own limits and gain improvement.]
[Secret Technique: Nirvana Technique: The absorbed vitality can be condensed into 'Phoenix Blood Essence' to restore oneself. ]
Nine Phoenix Flame Skeleton, this is the special blessing that Mu Xiaoye obtained after completing the first-grade Dao Immortal Foundation.
The effect of her blessing from the Great Dao is no worse than Lu Chen's "Fairy Lotus Embryo".
Because this blessing from the Great Dao seemed to be specially matched with her innate magical power, the Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation, and it was a perfect match.
The terrifying thing about the innate magical power, Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation, is that it can burn the vitality of living beings and feed it back to Mu Xiaoye himself.
The secret method brought by the Nine Phoenix Flame Corpse, the Nirvana Technique, is essentially the ability to condense excess vitality into 'Phoenix Essence and Blood' and store it into one's own physical strength.
This effect is undoubtedly highly complementary to the Scarlet Flame Phoenix Tribulation.
According to Mu Xiaoye herself, every drop of phoenix blood is equivalent to her life.
Theoretically speaking, as long as she condenses enough Phoenix blood essence, she will be immortal.
However, it is only the Nirvana technique of the foundation-building period, and it is far from achieving the terrifying effect of rebirth by dripping blood.
If Mu Xiaoye was hit continuously in the vital parts within a short period of time, the recovery speed of the Phoenix Blood Essence would not be able to keep up with the enemy's attack damage.
Then she will still die.
However, this weakness will be largely eliminated once she reaches the Jindan stage.
Because the Phoenix Tribulation cultivator will unlock a unique Golden Core Stage Dharma Body in the Golden Core Stage... the body of the Phoenix Tribulation of All Ye.
In the Dharmakaya state, Mu Xiaoye's body will completely transform from the original flesh and blood into a pure incarnation of fire.
At this time, she is not only immune to most physical attacks, but also has no vital points.
At this point, unless one is a cultivator with great magical powers who has mastered the Dao Transformation Realm, or some special spiritual means.
Otherwise, even if Mu Xiaoye stood there and let them hit her, they would not be able to hurt Mu Xiaoye at all.
Not to mention that on this basis, every time Mu Xiaoye is reborn from the ashes, there is a certain probability that he will break his own limits and further improve his strength.
It can be said that she cannot be killed, she can only become stronger.
And this is just a one-on-one situation with a Phoenix Tribulation cultivator.
If it were a battlefield where a large number of living creatures gathered, Mu Xiaoye could almost fight against ten thousand alone.
Because for Mu Xiaoye, the battlefield is a huge blood bag from which he can extract infinite vitality.
As long as the Phoenix blood in her body is not exhausted, she will always be in her prime.
After learning this, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh at the horror of the Phoenix Tribulation cultivator.
With their natural abilities, it's as if they were born specifically for fighting.
In the same realm, even a monster like Lu Chen would find it extremely difficult to deal with.
And if he reached the Jindan stage but failed to master the skills of the Daohua realm.
In a one-on-one fight, he might not be Mu Xiaoye's opponent.
After all, anyone would have a headache facing an enemy who is immune to physical attacks, has amazing recovery ability, and can be reborn from the ashes many times.
To deal with this kind of enemy, one must either suppress her with absolute power until her phoenix blood essence is completely consumed.
Or he must have mastered some special magical skills that could directly harm Mu Xiaoye's soul.
Even the weakness of the soul will be greatly compensated after Mu Xiaoye reaches the Nascent Soul stage and comprehends his own laws of heaven and earth.
By then, she will truly be an all-round monk with no blind spots.
Monster, this was the only thought that came to Lu Chen’s mind after he learned about Mu Xiaoye’s blessing.
And he finally understood Wanye Immortal Sect, one of the four holy places of the Immortal Alliance.
Why would he be so determined to treat Mu Xiaoye as the future sect leader just because of a mere natural magical power?
The Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation, which ranks third on the Immortal Alliance's Magical Power List, is indeed worthy of their doing so.
There are nine unique innate magical powers like the Scarlet Flame Phoenix Tribulation that have terrifying effects.
This also made Lu Chen very curious about the other nine unique innate magical powers on the Immortal Alliance's magical power list.
The fact that they can be ranked in the top ten together with such a terrifying Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation is definitely extraordinary.
However, in the current Immortal Alliance, only four of them appeared in the top ten of the magical power list, including Mu Xiaoye.
There are still six who have not yet awakened, or who have awakened but have not revealed the news...
When they appear one after another, this Immortal Alliance... may really be about to usher in an era of great conflict.
As Mu Xiaoye became serious.
The three-legged golden crow in the sky finally understood what made Di Ting so arrogant just now.
There is no doubt that this guy has found help!
Feeling the special Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation on Mu Xiaoye, the Three-legged Golden Crow rarely put away its originally rebellious expression and became more serious than ever before.
Because it sensed danger from Mu Xiaoye.
This stranger is not simple! With this thought in mind, the Three-legged Golden Crow immediately prepared to strike first.
"Ming!"
Accompanied by a clear bird song, the little sun controlled by the three-legged golden crow immediately fell from the sky.
I saw a golden fireball with a diameter of more than 20 meters.
The temperature inside is close to tens of thousands degrees.
The temperature was so horrifying that even if the golden fireball was only hovering hundreds of meters in the air, it would still ignite the surrounding trees in advance.
It also caused a large amount of water to evaporate from the originally moist ground below, causing countless cracks to form.
In response, Lu Chen and Di Ting had to retreat further away.
Because even if the Three-legged Golden Crow’s cultivation was suppressed to the Foundation Establishment Stage because of the Heavenly Dao Oath.
But the golden fireball it unleashed at this time still caused damage at the Jindan stage level.
Watching from such a close distance, you might get affected.
Although the three-legged golden crow made a lot of noise, Mu Xiaoye was not afraid at all. In fact, the smile on her face became even more excited.
This kind of opponent... is really interesting!
Bang! Mu Xiaoye exerted his strength suddenly, and turned into a red flame, rushing towards the golden fireball in the air.
And punched directly on the huge golden fireball.
Boom! As this punch was thrown, the originally calm sky was immediately covered by a golden sea of fire.
These golden flames, along with the terrifying air waves caused by the explosion, turned into meteorites that scattered from the sky and smashed heavily on the ground.
The trees below, which had already been ignited by the high temperature, began to fall down like wheat after being hit by the flames, creating a mess.
Soon, a terrifying focal area of hundreds of meters appeared in front of Lu Chen and Di Ting.
However, Lu Chen and Di Ting did not pay attention to these people, but looked up at the sky.
Mu Xiaoye's whole body was covered in red flames.
And fought with the three-legged golden crow.
【Name: Three-legged Golden Crow】
【Position: Six Ministries】
【Fate: Fiery Sun True Flame】
[Description: To the east of Penglai, on the Daiyu Mountain, there is a Fusang tree, which is ten thousand feet high. On the top of the tree there is a celestial cock, which has built its nest on top. Every night at midnight, the celestial cock crows, and the sunbird responds; when the sunbird crows, all the chickens in the world crow.]
Facing the six-level three-legged golden crow, Mu Xiaoye was not at a disadvantage at all at this time.
Each of her moves was powerful and each attack could cause the scorching sun flames covering the body of the Three-legged Golden Crow to shake violently.
The scorching sun true flame of the three-legged golden crow, which had been invincible in the past, was now unable to do anything to Mu Xiaoye.
Mu Xiaoye's Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation also had little effect on the Three-legged Golden Crow.
But don’t forget that Mu Xiaoye is also a physical cultivator.
Therefore, even without the power of the Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation's flames, Mu Xiaoye was still able to suppress the Three-legged Golden Crow with his fists.
More importantly, the vitality that Mu Xiaoye's Red Flame Phoenix Tribulation can absorb is not only from cultivators or spirit beasts.
Flowers, plants, trees, even insects, birds and animals are also within the range of being absorbed by Mu Xiaoye.
Therefore, the fallen and dead trees on the ground, and even the insects that originally lived in this area.
They all became Mu Xiaoye's nourishment and were absorbed by her using the Phoenix Tribulation Fire scattered around her.
Even though this part of vitality is not much, it can still make up for a lot of Mu Xiaoye's consumption.
As one side gained strength while the other lost strength, it became even more difficult for the Three-legged Golden Crow to launch an effective counterattack against Mu Xiaoye.
After all, the Three-legged Golden Crow, which is used to bullying its opponents with the Fiery Sun True Flame, rarely encounters a situation where it can only fight head-on.
So much so that for a moment it didn't know how to fight back.
When it comes to melee skills, how can it compare to Mu Xiaoye, a physical cultivator!
Bang, bang, bang…
In the sky, Mu Xiaoye continued to punch the three-legged golden crow.
The three-legged golden crow had been beaten so hard that it was seeing stars.
Although it did fight back in the process.
But its claws could also leave scars on Mu Xiaoye's body.
But these scars quickly recovered with the help of Mu Xiaoye's phoenix blood essence.
In addition, Mu Xiaoye would take out some pills from his storage bag from time to time to eat.
In the war of attrition, she clearly had the upper hand.
According to this scenario, Mu Xiaoye might win the battle in no time.
And what she could see, the Three-legged Golden Crow also knew.
Seeing that this was not a solution, the three-legged golden crow simply revealed its true form.
A three-legged crow with a body length of more than ten meters and a wingspan of nearly fifty meters appeared in front of Mu Xiaoye.
Immediately afterwards, the Three-legged Golden Crow no longer used its Fiery Sun True Flame as a long-range attack method to deal with Mu Xiaoye.
Because it knew that such an attack would have no effect on Mu Xiaoye at all.
Then it absorbed all of the scorching sun flames into its body.
This caused its originally jet-black feathers to quickly turn golden.
From a distance, it looks like a little golden sun hanging in the sky.
In this state, the Three-legged Golden Crow not only becomes larger in size, but its physical strength also reaches an astonishing level.
It was at the expense of the power of supernatural powers in exchange for terrifying physical strength!
However, in this way, the Three-legged Golden Crow could no longer use the Fiery Sun True Flame to carry out magical attacks.
Because it is equivalent to using all the power of the Fiery Sun True Flame to strengthen one's own body.
Seeing this scene, a hint of cunning seemed to flash in Mu Xiaoye's eyes, as if he had been waiting for the Three-legged Golden Crow to do this.
The three-legged golden crow, which was stunned by Mu Xiaoye's series of attacks, did not notice this at all.
It used its claws to force Mu Xiaoye back, and then said coldly: "Stranger, I was just warming up before, now I'm going to get serious!"
As it said that, it directly hit Mu Xiaoye with its claws.
In response to this, Mu Xiaoye did not choose to respond with his fists as he did before.
Instead, he took out a fiery red magic sword from somewhere.
After this magic sword appeared, it began to grow larger and larger, and eventually turned into a huge heavy sword about two meters long.
Mu Xiaoye held the hilt of the sword with both hands and smashed towards the claws of the three-legged golden crow.
"Ming!"
The three-legged golden crow screamed, and one of its claws instantly cracked, oozing out a large amount of golden blood.
Mu Xiaoye took advantage of the victory and began to attack continuously with the heavy sword in his hand.
Not long after, she rode directly on the back of the three-legged golden crow and stabbed a sword into its back.
"Ming!"
This sword immediately caused astonishing damage to the three-legged golden crow, causing it to struggle continuously in the air.
But Mu Xiaoye held the hilt of the sword with one hand and kept hitting the back of the three-legged golden crow with the other hand, repeatedly punching its body.
In response to this, the three-legged golden crow tried many times to throw Mu Xiaoye out.
However, Mu Xiaoye held on to the hilt of the sword tightly, as if he was completely fixed on it and couldn't get rid of it at all.
Not only that, Mu Xiaoye's Phoenix Tribulation Fire was also constantly absorbing the Golden Crow's blood that was scattered from it, in order to recover the energy consumed in the previous battle.
Faced with this situation, the Three-legged Golden Crow had no idea that he had fallen into a trap.
Before, Mu Xiaoye had never taken out this third-level spiritual sword, but only used his fists and magical fire to fight himself.
Let it mistakenly believe that Mu Xiaoye only has this ability.
That's why he thought of using his real body to fight Mu Xiaoye in close combat.
But this way you fall into a trap.
Because revealing its true form means that it becomes larger and more difficult to avoid Mu Xiaoye's attacks.
Especially the sharp Third Realm Spirit Sword.
In fact, if it weren’t for this third-level spiritual sword, it would not be easy for Mu Xiaoye to break the body of the three-legged golden crow.
After all, she was not afraid of the scorching sun flames of the three-legged golden crow.
But the three-legged golden crow is also not afraid of Mu Xiaoye's red flame phoenix calamity.
The magical fires of both sides were canceled out almost at the same time.
But Mu Xiaoye's third-level spiritual sword broke this balance.
Even though Mu Xiaoye's swordsmanship was very ordinary, her current physique was amazing and she could defeat anyone with her strength.
Mu Xiaoye relied on his terrifying power to let the Three-legged Golden Crow know what it meant to use deception in war.
What is a magic weapon?
After Mu Xiaoye's series of punches, the three-legged golden crow finally couldn't hold on anymore, and its body fell from the air and hit the ground heavily.
Boom! When the body of the three-legged golden crow fell to the ground, this long-lasting war of attrition finally came to an end.
"Are you convinced?"
Mu Xiaoye stepped on the three-legged golden crow and spoke to the three-legged golden crow under him.
Hearing her words, the Three-legged Golden Crow said angrily: "Relying on the power of weapons, despicable outsider!"
Bang! Mu Xiaoye didn't waste time talking to it and punched it on the head.
"Are you convinced?"
“I don’t agree!”
Bang! Another heavy punch.
"Are you convinced?"
“I don’t agree!”
Bang, bang, bang…
This time, Mu Xiaoye did not give the Three-legged Golden Crow much chance to answer. His fist hit the Three-legged Golden Crow's head like a storm.
It was so hard that it saw stars.
Even the true body formed by the scorching sun's true flame could no longer be maintained, and it directly turned back into the appearance of a little crow at the beginning.
At this point, the stubborn Three-legged Golden Crow could no longer be stubborn.
"I give in! Stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"
The three-legged golden crow with a bruised face and nose covered his head with his wings. There was no longer any arrogance in his words, and his voice was trembling.
There is no doubt that it was frightened by Mu Xiaoye.
The Three-legged Golden Crow has never suffered such great injustice since its appearance.
No, how could someone be almost immune to my Fiery Sun True Flame? This doesn't make sense!
Seeing that the Three-legged Golden Crow had surrendered, Mu Xiaoye first took back the Third Realm Spirit Sword, Fire Feather, which had fallen beside him because the Three-legged Golden Crow had transformed back into its original form.
Then she took out her own scroll of mountains and seas and placed it directly in front of the three-legged golden crow.
"Go in."
Seeing this scene, the three-legged golden crow knew that Mu Xiaoye wanted to make himself its contracted beast.
But how could a majestic three-legged golden crow, the manifestation of the great sun of heaven, remain inferior to humans for long?
It can't sign this contract at all! "Don't sign it?"
Looking at the three-legged golden crow who kept silent and lay on the ground pretending to be dead, Mu Xiaoye immediately raised his fist.
I want it to change its mind.
But to Mu Xiaoye's surprise, the three-legged golden crow became very tough at this time and refused to give in.
Just when Mu Xiaoye was at a loss, Lu Chen quietly spoke a few words to Mu Xiaoye through telepathy.
The next second, Mu Xiaoye looked at Lu Chen and Di Ting who had already walked over with surprise, as if asking whether Lu Chen's method was useful.
In response, Lu Chen smiled and glanced at Di Ting, indicating that it could hear the Three-legged Golden Crow's true inner thoughts.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoye stopped hesitating and said to the three-legged golden crow at his feet: "As long as you become my destiny beast, I will help you catch the phoenix of the Fusang sacred tree in the future, how about it?"
The three-legged crow raised its head, looked at Mu Xiaoye in surprise, and said, "Why should I believe you?"
Hearing this, Mu Xiaoye smiled and said, "Once you reach the level of amulet in mountain and sea walking, you can contract new mountain and sea beasts."
"You said that after I reach the level of amulet, if I also contract the Luan bird, and we are together day and night, do you still worry about not having a chance?"
"Um?!"
The three-legged golden crow's eyes lit up, as if it was persuaded by Mu Xiaoye.
"Can you keep your word?"
“Guaranteed authenticity.”
"It's a deal!"
Along with it, a golden Heavenly Dao Contract flew out from between the brows of the Three-legged Golden Crow.
A lifelike three-legged golden crow pattern appeared on Mu Xiaoye's mountain and sea painting scroll.
However, it is different from the Heavenly Dao Contract signed by Lu Chen and Di Ting.
The Heavenly Dao Contract signed by Mu Xiaoye and the Three-legged Golden Crow was only a semi-finished product.
If Mu Xiaoye breaks his oath in the future and fails to successfully turn the Luan bird into his second exotic beast from the mountains and seas.
The three-legged golden crow could terminate the contract with her at any time.
"I hope you can keep your word."
After saying this, the injured three-legged golden crow entered Mu Xiaoye’s mountain and sea painting scroll and became Mu Xiaoye’s contracted beast.
This also means that the agreement between Lu Chen and Di Ting has been fulfilled.
With a flash of golden light, Di Ting also entered Lu Chen's mountain and sea painting.
The next second, Lu Chen felt a special force of destiny blessing him.
The effect of this fate force on him was even stronger than he had imagined.
【Fate: Nine Qis】
【Effect:……】
