Phoenix Clan's Phoenix Mother, the Sacred Beast Vermilion Bird.
Chapter 72 Phoenix Clan's Phoenix Mother, the Sacred Beast Vermilion Bird.
Southern part of the primordial land,
Deep within the Undying Volcano, a colossal figure was suppressing the restless flames within.
A voice reached her ears, causing her to frown involuntarily.
This person is the Phoenix Mother, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan. She was the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan during the war between the three clans.
After the war between the three races, she led the Phoenix Clan to suppress the Undying Volcano in order to repay the enormous karma generated during the war. Countless years have passed since the Phoenix Clan began to suppress the Undying Volcano.
Today, upon hearing Chen Qing's telepathic message, the Phoenix Mother frowned.
In this land of the immortal volcano, there were still people who dared to kill members of their Phoenix Clan, which greatly surprised her.
It should be known that the Phoenix Clan is the most revered of all birds, the head of all avian races. Even the current demon race, even the current overlords of heaven and earth, must treat her, the Phoenix Mother, with utmost respect.
But now, someone has come knocking on their door, saying they want to kill members of their Phoenix Clan, which makes her frown.
Phoenix Mother frowned, then her primordial spirit scanned the outside world. Seeing that the attack that Feng Qin had launched had just been dispelled by Chen Qing, her already furrowed brows furrowed even more.
She had just witnessed the power of the laws directly shatter the Undying Flame, and upon seeing this, she could no longer sit still.
She knew that if she didn't show herself, Fengqin and the others would indeed be in danger of dying.
At this moment, the Phoenix Mother no longer hesitated. Instead, she stood up and used her magic to suppress the restless fire within the Undying Volcano before soaring into the sky.
A loud phoenix cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and then a huge figure emerged from the Undying Volcano and soared into the sky.
He possessed an immense aura of power, and his aura was also extremely strong.
As this figure appeared, strange phenomena began to occur around them.
Countless birds flew into the air, circling and searching, as if worshipping the enormous figure.
Upon seeing this figure appear, Chen Qing immediately understood that this was the Phoenix Mother.
Upon seeing this figure, Fengqin immediately showed respect on her face and awe in her eyes.
"snort!"
"The patriarch of my Phoenix Clan has arrived. Let's see what you can do."
"You wouldn't leave when I told you to, and now it's too late for you to leave."
As soon as Fengqin finished speaking, the enormous figure looked in their direction and then flew directly towards them.
As the enormous figure flew in, a tremendous pressure swept over it.
Chen Qing felt the oppressive aura and simply smiled casually.
The mirage dragon felt the pressure and its pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a trace of fear in its eyes. However, thinking that its master was right beside it and that it could not embarrass its master, it stubbornly withstood the pressure and suppressed the fear in its heart.
The figure flew towards them with incredible speed, stopping just before it arrived.
Then, the giant phoenix disappeared, and a human figure appeared.
The figure looked at Chen Qing, a scrutinizing look in its eyes.
"Are you the ones who threatened to kill my Phoenix Clan?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing smiled and nodded.
"Phoenix Mother, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan."
"It really surprised me that the Phoenix Mother did not die in the war between the three races, but is still alive in the primordial world, suppressing the raging fire in this immortal volcano."
"The Phoenix Mother is mistaken. She did not threaten to kill your Phoenix Clan, but rather that if they continue to attack, they will surely die."
Upon hearing this, the Phoenix Mother's phoenix eyes narrowed as she looked at Chen Qing, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
An immense aura pressed down on Chen Qing, as if it were about to crush him.
Chen Qing sensed this immense aura, but made no move whatsoever, as if he hadn't felt it at all.
Fengqin looked at the Phoenix Mother and immediately stepped forward to speak.
"Chieftain, I sensed the presence of dragons earlier, so I came out to investigate. I never imagined that dragons would actually come to our clan's territory."
"The hatred between the dragon and the phoenix has a long history. They are mortal enemies and have reached a point where they cannot be at peace. Since this dragon dares to appear in our phoenix clan's territory, I will certainly kill him."
"But as soon as I made my move, I encountered resistance, and the supernatural power I unleashed was also taken back by him."
"This person is named Chen Qing. He appears to have only the cultivation level of a Xuanxian, but his true strength is probably far greater than that."
"The divine power I just unleashed was shattered by an unknown force as soon as it approached his body. I can't fathom the strength of this person."
The Phoenix Mother nodded in agreement upon hearing Feng Qin's words.
"Fellow Daoist, bringing members of the Dragon Clan to my Phoenix Clan's territory, isn't that somewhat inappropriate?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing looked at the Phoenix Mother and simply smiled.
"I don't see anything wrong with it. The Mirage Dragon is my mount. I've traveled here, so naturally it should follow me. Do you expect me to have a mount but not ride it, and instead walk the rest of the way?"
Upon hearing this, the Phoenix Mother looked at Chen Qing, about to ask him some other questions, when a voice rang in her ears.
"Clan leader, this person is capable of fighting against a saint. He possesses a powerful supernatural ability that can suppress a saint. Even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun addresses him as a fellow Daoist."
"Clan leader, this person should only be befriended, not made an enemy."
This voice came from the Vermilion Bird, one of the four sacred beasts of the primordial world.
The Vermilion Bird is one of the four sacred beasts of the primordial world, with the duty of suppressing the southern world. She also witnessed the great battle on the shore of the East Sea and knew Chen Qing's strength very well.
She had just been startled by the Phoenix Mother's cry and immediately began to check what had happened.
After all, she was a member of the Phoenix Clan, so if anything happened to the Phoenix Clan, he would naturally have to provide support.
To her surprise, it was Chen Qing who appeared there.
Upon seeing Chen Qing, Zhuque immediately sent a telepathic message to the Phoenix Mother.
Hearing Zhuque's words, the Phoenix Mother already understood. She looked at Chen Qing and then slowly spoke.
"Fellow Daoist, since it is your mount, it should naturally follow you wherever you go. Let's leave it at that. What do you think?"
Upon hearing Phoenix Mother's words, Chen Qing looked at her with a half-smile, then slowly nodded.
"Very well, since the Phoenix Mother has said so, then I will give the Phoenix Mother and the Vermilion Bird face and let this matter drop."
"I have been traveling through the primordial world for thousands of years, originally hoping to have some fun, but I never expected that the Vermilion Bird would disturb my peace."
As Chen Qing said this, he sighed helplessly.
Upon hearing this, the Phoenix Mother's eyes revealed a look of helplessness.
She knew all too well just how powerful Hongjun Daozu was; it was beyond words.
Even so, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun still addressed the person before him as a fellow Daoist, which shows just how powerful Chen Qing was.
Since we can't afford to offend them, we can only try to befriend them. This isn't a big deal for the Phoenix Mother.
After all, that's how the primordial world was—the strong prey on the weak.
"Fellow Daoist Chen Qing is traveling through the primordial world. Since you have the opportunity to come to the land of my Phoenix Clan, why not return with me to the Phoenix Clan's territory and have a discussion on the Dao together? What do you think, Fellow Daoist?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing glanced at the Phoenix Mother and then nodded in agreement.
"Since the Phoenix Mother has invited me, let's have a discussion together. After all, I haven't been to the Phoenix Clan's territory yet."
Upon hearing this, the Phoenix Mother nodded in agreement.
"In that case, fellow Daoist, please follow me."
After saying this, the Phoenix Mother flew forward.
Upon seeing this, Chen Qing glanced at the Mirage Dragon, then jumped directly onto the top of its head and followed behind the Phoenix Mother.
Feng Qin and the other members of the Phoenix Clan exchanged glances, their eyes filled with doubt.
Although they didn't understand why their clan leader did this, they figured he must have his reasons, so they didn't dwell on it and immediately followed him toward the Phoenix Clan's territory.
