Chapter 1116: Phoenix Servant
The two ghosts stopped lashing Granda Yu and sneered at Feiyun. One of them whipped his prison and sternly exclaimed: Who do you think you are, wanting to meet the saintess?
Even a prince of heaven needs to be obedient here. The other ghost with two horns snorted before leaving.
Feiyuns eyes became bloodshot as he gathered energy to unleash a palm strike at the skeletal prison.
Alas, the runes on the surface retaliated and obliterated his hand. As he was pushed back into the wall, the runes on that side became activated and split his flesh open.
The runes were carved by a demi-saint, I cant break it. Feiyun stared at his broken hand and said.
Grandpa Yu, on the other hand, said with a tinge of joy: Lotus Saintess didnt kill us or swallow our soul. It shows that her heart has yet to be devoured by hatred. Shes only taking it out on us right now.
I understand but she shouldnt be doing this to you, you did nothing wrong. Feiyun said.
I can come up with 10,000 excuses for myself but it doesnt change the fact that she had suffered in the last 10,000 years. This physical pain is taking away the guilt in my heart. Grandpa Yu said with a smile.
So we have to be imprisoned like this for who knows how long? Feiyun asked.
If she wants us to stay here, we wont be able to escape. Im sure shes waiting for someone. Grandpa Yu closed his eyes and relaxed.
Who?
Your father.
Feiyun calmed down and sat on the ground. It seemed that only the actual parties could solve the problems of romance.
After breaking through, Feiyun found himself far stronger but the saintess still overwhelmed him. This was akin to a moth trying to break a mountain.
He was currently in a new realm - neither Heavens Emergence nor sainthood. No one could teach him what to do next.
The inner core inside his body resembled a vermillion fruit. It contained a saint aura and the power of a phoenix flame.
If I want to get stronger, I need to cultivate the inner core. The problem is not having enough saint energy for this. He thought to himself.
The vessel. He then remembered the massive world inside the spirit vessel and phoenix blood. Thus, he sent a divine intent there again.
The world was a vast void with floatings boulders and even continents. He found the massive Immemorial Heavenwood that was rotating in a particular order.
As he entered the crack, he returned to the grave with the river of blood.
Given the characters on the grave, this might be Immemorial Phoenixs burial. However, what about the grave in Bronze Cauldron Mountain?
He wanted to reach the other side but doing so would be suicidal. The river could obliterate any intruder.
He sat down by the shore instead, restraining his curiosity. He listened to the waves, hoping to learn its dao.
Since this was a divine intent, he could absorb the blood but at the very least, he could still comprehend the dao.
He had tried to study Lotus Saintess dao and Di Zhongs dao. Although he didnt scratch the bare surface, they still improved his cultivation significantly.
The two dao differed drastically as well. The saintess dao could turn ones cultivation into a flawless lotus with a transcending aura while Di Zhongs dao resembled a mysterious and ferocious orchid.
As for the phoenix servant, this dao would be a fiery peony - a king among all flowers.
Since Feiyun possessed the memories of a phoenix clan leader and the Immortal Phoenix Physique, he had an easier time learning the phoenix dao compared to the others.
Eventually, his breathing became attuned with the flow of the blood river - an indescribable level of harmonization.
Under this zen state, his comprehension speed became ten times faster.
Suddenly, he suddenly heard the sound of a girl speaking. It was as quiet as a mosquito buzzing.
He stopped breathing to listen - finally, finally return...
As the voice became clearer, it creeped him out a little.
Whos returning? He looked around but didnt notice anything and decided to cultivate again.
After entering the zen state, the quiet voice returned - As time flew by, so many friends perished but I feared nothing as long as I was by your side. Your heroic smile threw my heart into chaos and captured me. I was your song and your sword and when you entered your grave, I turned into this river of blood to protect you for an eternity, like a crimson belt gifted from a lover... [1]
The sorrowful voice recalled a tale on top of sending an intent lasting since time immemorial to Feiyun.
He was moved to tears while listening.
Who are you? He asked the river of blood.
Just a lonely phoenix, I cant believe I was able to wait for your return... The illusory voice was feeble.
I dont know you. Feiyun responded.
Of course you dont know me. Im just happy to be able to see you again. The voice resembled the flow of the river, switching between fast and slow.
Youre Phoenix Servant? He asked.
Yes, only a servant in your eyes, always... She responded but only the first word was audible while the rest became too quiet.
He was ecstatic - this was a phoenix saint in the legends. He didnt expect to be able to converse with this mythical figure.
There were many scrolls depicting Immemorial Divine Phoenix. Phoenix Servant was also included since she remained a servant despite being a saint - something unique in history.
Silence ensued afterward. After a long while, her voice returned: My vitality has withered, my life has long reached its end. This remaining intent is likely to disappear soon, and forever.
He heard sadness and unwillingness in her voice but most importantly, helplessness.
Di Zhongs remnant intent persevered because he couldnt accept losing to White Spider Ancestor. The only thing on his mind was to break the spider ancestors Everlasting Law. After finishing this, his intent dispersed into nothingness.
What was keeping Phoenix Servants intent around?
1. Seems like the immemorial phoenix is a guy and the servant is a girl. Previous chapters will be edited. Its hard to tell sex because there was no clear gender pronoun in the older chapters. I tried to be neutral but there was one instance of the author using a female pronoun for the immemorial phoenix. That was probably a mistake reewebnvel. com
