1219 - The Phoenix of Fire
Chapter 1219, The Phoenix of Fire
“No, I won't let you die,” Song Xiaojun cried anxiously.
She also pinched her fingers together to form the highest supreme seal technique of the Unmoving City of Darkness [Soul Absorber and Death Chaser]. Song Xiaojun's cultivation level wasn't high enough before, thus even if she had studied this seal method many times she was still unable to fully display it out. But this time, the yuan qi within her body was operated as smoothly as flowing water. Under the effect of the seal technique, the white mist scattering in the void was gathered together by a mysterious force, and eventually condensed into tangible substance, an eggshell-like object. From all sides, eventually all the remnants and aura of the Celestial Phoenix Maiden floating in the void were gathered together.
The white mist eventually turned into a giant white egg about a meter in diameter.
In the egg was the last breath and traces of the Celestial Phoenix Maiden.
“With my blood, absorb the soul and return, why don't you go back?”
Song Xiaojun recited the song of the seal technique, before a drop of blood from her fingertip fell onto the giant white egg.
The blood dripped onto the surface of the eggshell, and then transformed into strands of thousands of hair-like pattern, spreading across the surface of the giant eggshell in the blink of an eye like flame cracks. The egg was overflowing with an ancient mysterious force. And then, all the flame cracks began to exert its effect, hid and melted into the eggshell, and were no longer seen with the naked eye.
A faint and undetectable power of life was surging from the giant egg.
Song Xiaojun's tears were dripping onto the giant egg, calling softly, but the giant egg did not give any response.
“The life force has survived, as long as there is a trace of opportunity, I will not let you die... older Sister!”
Song Xiaojun caressed the eggshell, her expression determined.
The next moment, Song Xiaojun could feel her body stiffening. A powerful yuan qi aura began to surge in her body, and an unprecedented powerful current of dark flame inner yuan began to flow in the already restored dantian world. This power was too terrifying, like a severe flood or a fierce beast, it instantly poured into the eight extraordinary meridians and each blood vessel of her sacred body. However, her body was not in the slightest damaged. Vaguely, Song Xiaojun could hear rumbles of the great Dao, and even felt that her body was blowing up like a balloon!
But when Song Xiaojun reacted, she found out that it was not an illusion.
Her body really was expanding.
She had already unknowingly come out of the [Cloud Top Cauldron]. Her body was incomparably huge, and the fragments of stars that originally looked like immemorial mountains, at this time, next to Song Xiaojun's body, were like specks of dust. Even the [Cloud Top Cauldron] that enveloped her before was much smaller than specks of dust.
“Martial Emperor's original form!”
Countless rays of divine light surfaced in Song Xiaojun's mind.
The countless information was as invisible as dust in the sun but also undoubtedly real.
This feeling was too familiar. Every time the power of bloodline evolved, Song Xiaojun's strength increased as a result. She also became aware of many skills and techniques of the Unmoving City of Darkness, awakened much consciousness, and mastered a lot of secrets and martial arts theory. This time it was evidently more intense and powerful than any previous evolution of the bloodline power.
The awakening of the Martial Emperor’s original form signified that she had truly stepped into the realm of Martial Emperor.
The perfect bloodline power of the ancient True Phoenix had completely undergone evolution. During the moment that Song Xiaojun was being reborn, she had stepped into the realm of the Martial Emperor——This was the power of bloodline.
“Finally reached this point?”
Song Xiaojun felt the surging yuan qi power in her body, which was rapidly being transformed into Emperor's power. She closed her eyes, and at the fastest speed, adapted to this new force, adapted to the Emperor power that was flowing in her body, and adapted to the control of the Emperor power and original form!
In the past, Song Xiaojun was very afraid of the arrival of the awakening of the last bloodline power. She knew very clearly that once the power of darkness bloodline in her body erupts it signifies that she has truly stepped into the realm of Martial Emperor. However, she had deliberately suppressed the arrival of this day, because it was only after great difficulty that she found the memory and story between her and Ye Qingyu in the past. Once the last bloodline power breaks out, once she stepped into the Martial Emperor realm, her memory would also be lost once again.
Because the power of the darkness bloodline, although terrifying, was after all not the complete bloodline of the ancient True Phoenix.
An incomplete bloodline has defects with every evolution.
On Song Xiaojun's body, it was the loss of memory.
And now, after the Celestial Phoenix Maiden had completed the true bloodline with the technique of Nirvana, Song Xiaojun's body now contained the true complete bloodline without defects. Thus, even if she had completely entered the Martial Emperor's realm, her memory was not lost.
It was only several seconds later when the transformation of Emperor power was complete.
At this point, the distant battle finally stopped.
No matter how intense the battle was, those two were Emperor experts who would no doubt realize the emergence of a new Emperor outside the battlefield. And when their eyes fell on Song Xiaojun, they were instantly astonished.
Ye Qingyu was shocked because he did not think that Song Xiaojun would became Emperor at this time. He had previously sensed Song Xiaojun's aura, and although it was indeed at the peak of the ninth step Quasi-emperor realm, she was still a distance from the true Martial Emperor. It was not only a difference in cultivation base but there was an unclear and unknown boundary gap. Ye Qingyu previously concluded that, without an opportunity, it would at least be a decade before Song Xiaojun could become an Emperor... but now... what happened?
And the Sky Emperor was shocked because he felt a strong and extremely dangerous aura from the woman who had all of a sudden become an Emperor——It was an aura that natural restrains him.
“Impossible, how could this be... the blood of the ancient True Phoenix... the complete ancient True Phoenix bloodline...” The Sky Emperor exclaimed in disbelief. Everything was previously under his control, but now why would there be such a twist and reversal?
And it was also at this time that Song Xiaojun slowly opened her eyes.
“The flames of the Phoenix...Destroy the power of the sky!”
She stretched her body, the flame wings of the True Phoenix unfolded behind her, and her Martial Emperor’s original form began to change. She transformed into a huge, noble, and mysterious ancient firebird, blazing with red flames all over. She slightly beat her wings and charge toward sovereign Skyreach’s corpse that was under the control of the Sky Emperor.
The Sky Emperor had the title sky, and the fire of the True Phoenix can destroy the power of the sky.
It was a natural restraint of the Great Dao.
Although the Sky Emperor also made a counterattack after a short period of shock, the blue light that shrouded the six-winged golden Hou's Emperor body, which Ye Qingyu could not break with the [Blood Drinker Sword], was instantly ignited by the ancient True Phoenix like oil.
Boom!
The flames rose and exploded with a deafening roar.
The six-winged golden corpse was incinerated in this split second. It was as though there was an eternally blazing fireball in the starry sky. Across a distance of millions of kilometers it was as bright as day. The bright and dazzling light had swept across the entire starry battlefield.
“Ah... it really is the flame of the True Phoenix. This taboo bloodline had reemerged?”
A blue figure escaped from the burning corpse like a bolt of lightning.
Around his body there were still wisps of burning flames that could not be extinguished. His face was twisted with panic and fear, and was not the Sky Emperor who had almost forced Ye Qingyu into a desperate state before?
Sky Emperor looked incredibly miserable. Although he was only a shadow, he was unable to put out the fire of the True Phoenix around his body. The flame blazed, creating crackling noises, like roasting butter.
“Die!”
Song Xiaojun showed no mercy, spewed out a gush of Phoenix flame.
The Sky Emperor's shadow, like a rattlesnake, quickly retreated, but the flame of the Phoenix, like a spiritual object, had already firmly locked onto his body, and at a faster speed twisted around his shadow, roared, and again frantically began to burn him.
The flame had devoured half of his body.
“The re-emergence of a taboo bloodline, is the prophecy of the past about to come true... Haha, I don't believe it, that person has already turned to ashes, how could this be…”
The Sky Emperor’s voice still sounded calm.
In a flash, his whole body was incinerated into ashes and vanished completely from this world.
Song Xiaojun drew in a breath, and the flame of the Phoenix returned to her mouth.
“Brother Qingyu, are you all right?” She came to Ye Qingyu's side right away and supported him.
At this time, Ye Qingyu was indeed extremely weak.
Ever since he left Heaven Wasteland Domain, he had fought hundreds of battles, but this time it was definitely the most tragic one of all. This was because he really had no certainty of winning, and had too many concerns and worries. The [Cloud Top Cauldron] had to protect Song Xiaojun and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden, and he was almost forced to a desperate situation.
“I'm fine.” Ye Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the injury was serious, the crisis had been lifted. He just needed a period of rest for him to fully recover.
This battle was tragic, but had incomparable benefits to Ye Qingyu. The harvest was tremendous, and as long as he slowly digested what he had learnt he could certainly advance another level.
“This time it was just an incarnation of the Sky Emperor. He is terrifying, omnipresent, and can incarnate into tens of thousands. He likes to scheme and attack from behind...” Song Xiaojun assisted Ye Qingyu and retreated from the battlefield, returning to the [Cloud Top Cauldron].
Ye Qingyu's eyes were fixed on the egg.
“This is...” Puzzled, he vaguely guessed that, while he was battling against Sky Emperor, something big had happened, which was related to Song Xiaojun becoming Emperor.
Song Xiaojun's eyes reddened.
She did not hide anything in the slightest, and recounted everything that had happened in detail. By the time she finished, her cheeks were already bathed in tears.
Ye Qingyu froze for a moment.
He subconsciously reached out to caress the giant white egg. The complex feelings in his heart were simply indescribable with words. A sad feeling, like the tide, had drowned him instantly.
