Volume 1: Youth Tour Chapter 39: Remembrance of the Phoenix
Phoenix essence and blood!
A drop of blood exuded a heart-stopping pressure, and I couldn't help but want to kneel on the ground and surrender to it.
This is the king of the demon clan in the last era, who together with the dragon clan leads the demon clan.
However, the continent was in chaos, and the Phoenix and Dragon Clan disappeared.
There are rumors that the Phoenix and the Dragon Clan were seriously injured in the battle on the Demonic Continent. They looked for a place to heal, but they did not recover and eventually died.
This rumor is definitely not groundless. If not, why have the Phoenix and Dragon Clan disappeared for more than 10,000 years?
Now that the Monster Clan is in such decline, why are you unwilling to come out and lead the Monster Clan back to its glory?
Zhou Yun has a bold guess that this place may be the place where Phoenix died, and the remaining drop of blood essence is the inheritance left by Phoenix for the revitalization of the demon clan.
However, Phoenix never imagined that it would not be the demons who obtained Phoenix's essence and blood, but the mortal enemies of the demons, the human race.
Seeing that the sycamore tree was about to collapse, Zhou Yun immediately jumped up, grabbed the phoenix essence and blood, sealed it with divine fire, and threw it into the storage ring.
"I didn't expect that such a proud phoenix essence and blood would be submissive in front of the divine fire, without even resisting."
Rumble!
A loud noise came again. The sycamore tree's heels had rotted, and the entire trunk could not maintain balance. It tilted to the right and fell. The speed was too fast, and the accident happened too suddenly.
Zhou Yun turned around and came to the top of the sycamore tree. Before the sycamore tree fell into the lake, he ran like crazy.
However, it was already too late. He was too far away from the shore and could not get through even if he tried his best.
Just as he was running halfway, there was a plop, and the sycamore tree completely fell into the lake. The turbulent lake water swept in from all directions, completely smashing the decayed sycamore tree.
Zhou Yun was attacked by the lake water and was dragged everywhere. He tried his best to struggle, but all the attacks were absorbed by the lake water, as if they were hit in the air, and were useless.
"Is it possible that my generation of time-travelers will be drowned alive in this ghost place? If this spreads out, wouldn't it make all time-travelers laugh at me?"
Zhou Yun suddenly thought of the Ice Soul Mysterious Water and started running it with all his strength. A layer of water shield quickly condensed around him, isolating the huge pressure of the lake water.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief and saw a little hope.
However, Zhou Yun was still a thousand miles away from getting out of trouble.
Under the water shield, the lake water still slapped violently on his body, pushing him back and forth. After a while, Zhou Yun was actually pushed into a whirlpool.
By the time Zhou Yun realized that something was wrong, he was already staring at the whirlpool. He was on the edge of the whirlpool, and an extremely arrogant suction force burst out from the whirlpool, pulling him in unreasonably.
"Ahhh! Stop it! I can't stand it anymore!"
Zhou Yun entered the whirlpool and was immediately dizzy and staggering around. It was hundreds of times more painful than the first time he entered the Hidden Peak Secret Realm.
The waves were rising one after another, and the whirlpool was extremely fast. In just a few breaths, Zhou Yun was sent to the bottom of the lake more than ten feet away.
After a while, Zhou Yun finally arrived at the center of the whirlpool and was thrown out by a huge force. He stumbled and was knocked to pieces at the bottom of the lake.
So what is the use of this water shield? Turn yourself into a ball, making it easier for the vortex to ravage you!
Finally stopped.
Zhou Yun was lying on the ground, so dizzy that he couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north. He was even more uncomfortable than being drunk.
"It's too cruel, it's really too cruel!"
He once again deeply realized his own insignificance. When faced with the power of nature, he was completely powerless to resist and could only let others slaughter him.
Fortunately, this time the process was very dangerous and the ending was good. He was lucky enough to survive.
By the time Zhou Yun regained consciousness, it was already a cup of tea later.
He stood up and looked around. The light was dim, there were jagged and strange rocks everywhere, there were no fish or shrimps, there was only endless desolation as far as the eye could see.
"Is this what the bottom of the lake looks like?"
Zhou Yun murmured to himself, choosing a direction at random, preparing to wander around the bottom of the lake to find a way out of here.
This time he chose the West.
There will always be miracles as you go west.
Tang Monk also went to the West to study for Buddhist scriptures.
Zhou Yun advanced along the west, passed through a group of jagged and strange rocks, and came to a huge ruin.
The ruins are extremely huge, at least three times the size of Danfeng Valley. There are broken walls and ruins everywhere, palaces have collapsed, stone pillars are broken, and it is a desolate scene.
The ruins are so spectacular. You can imagine how beautiful this place must have been in its heyday.
Seeing this, Zhou Yun couldn't help but feel desolate. Time is the most ruthless. All scenery cannot last forever and will eventually be reduced to ruins.
Prosperity will eventually come to an end, who can be immortal?
Where have all the immortals from ancient and modern times gone now? Why have they disappeared?
I'm afraid it has long since disappeared in the long river of time.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is Phoenix's former palace, and there may be some useful treasures in it."
Even if the former demon king dies, even if the palace collapses, there will definitely be some treasure left behind, even if it is broken.
Zhou Yun's current strength is low, no matter how broken the treasure is, to him, it is the same as a treasure.
What's more, in the outside world, there is a formidable enemy such as the Xuanming Sect disciples. If you can obtain a magic weapon, you can take revenge.
His current background is too little.
Zhou Yun took two steps, and suddenly, there was a strange movement in the storage ring.
It's from that drop of Phoenix essence and blood!
Zhou Yun hurriedly took out the phoenix essence and blood, and saw a phantom of the phoenix flying out, turning into the size of a fist, and screaming in agony, as if telling the pain and unwillingness of the past.
When its screams spread, Zhou Yun noticed that there was sudden movement in the ruins that had been silent for countless years.
Some powerful existence is resurrecting, exuding terrifying coercion, almost the same as a phoenix.
"Is there still a phoenix alive here?" Zhou Yun was horrified. If he really encountered a phoenix and stole its essence and blood, wouldn't that be the end of it?
"Impossible! If Phoenix is still alive, how can he live in the ruins? This aura should be Phoenix's remnants!"
Zhou Yun quickly calmed down, no longer hesitated, and moved towards the place where the breath came from.
Now that we have reached this point, if we choose to retreat, it will really be unreasonable. What's more, with the Phoenix essence and blood in hand, how can Phoenix Cannian give himself some mercy?
If it's too arrogant, I still have Shenhuo as a countermeasure, which is enough to solve the problem.
Anyway, as long as it's not a living phoenix, the problem won't be too big.
Zhou Yun walked into the ruins and passed through the collapsed palaces. Among them were huge white bones, which were not human, but were the remains of the former powerful demon clan.
Even after death, there will still be a drop of blood remaining in the bones.
This is the opportunity they left for future generations, so that future generations can continue their bloodline and inherit the legacy.
However, God's will has caused people to leave their remains in the cursed land, and future generations cannot get close to them. The essence and blood can only become weaker and weaker as time goes by, until they finally disappear in the years.
This is really a pity.
Zhou Yun walked all the way and collected all the essence and blood along the way. Maybe he would meet the demon clan in the future and it might be useful?
The ruins are full of devastation, and not a single palace is intact.
What has happened here to make it like this?
Even a generation of demon kings can't stop it.
Zhou Yun is full of doubts. The truth hidden here may be inextricably related to the power behind him. Otherwise, he would not be able to come and go freely regardless of the curse.
"The breath is getting stronger and stronger, it will be here soon."
After walking for a while, he came to the front of a huge palace. The stone pillar at the door collapsed, and only half of it was supporting the door.
Zhou Yun stepped in and his aura was very strong. The six stone pillars in the palace were tilted here and there, supporting the hall from completely collapsing into ruins.
boom!
Suddenly, the sound of breaking through the air was like a thunderous explosion, and a shadow rushed from a distance. The powerful fluctuations of spiritual power caused the void to burst and the earth to shake.
Zhou Yun was startled. Before he could see clearly what it was, he was knocked away. There were cracks in his internal organs. If not for the Yimu Crystal to save his life, he would have died on the spot.
"Human race, how did you get the Phoenix essence and blood! This king is going to kill you!"
It was only then that Zhou Yun saw the person who took action clearly. She was a middle-aged woman, wearing a royal robe, with a crown on her head, and her eyes were filled with the aura of an arrogant king.
She is the former demon king here, the most amazing and talented figure in an era, Phoenix.
However, her eyes were red and her body exuded a terrifying evil aura.
This is the remnant soul left by the Phoenix, and it is a wisp of resentment.
Zhou Yun probably knows what the remaining resentment is, that is, hatred towards the human race, a hatred that is close to genocide.
At this time, the Phoenix took action again, slapping out a palm, and a flaming Phoenix roared towards him. The surrounding gravel turned into powder, and the lake water roared and boiled, turning into mist.
Knowing that he was outmatched, Zhou Yun immediately cast his divine fire, and a giant dragon appeared out of thin air.
boom!
Divine fire is the king of fire. Zhou Yun struck with all his strength and miraculously shattered the flaming phoenix, and finally a ray of divine fire poured into the Phoenix's body.
She is just a ray of remnant soul and only has the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, but she is not something Zhou Yun can easily fight against.
The reason why this effect was achieved was because Phoenix recognized the divine fire. The redness in her eyes faded and gradually became clear. At that moment, she stopped, otherwise, Zhou Yun would have died.
Phoenix looked at Zhou Yun and asked: "Have the human race and the demon race been cut off?"
Zhou Yun was startled, how could Phoenix have recovered and no trace of resentment was gone.
"The demon clan has not been cut off, and they withdrew from the Central Plains and went to the Shiwan Mountain Forest."
"Never cut it off! Never cut it off! Hahaha!" Phoenix wept with joy, "In the battle back then, the human race was not completely wiped out. It was my fault, the demon race, and it is enough if we can continue to perpetuate our bloodline."
Zhou Yun was silent, not knowing what to say. It had spanned so long a time and he didn't understand what exactly happened at that time.
Chapter completed!
