Chapter 826
Phoenix Pool
Completely ignoring the surrounding struggles, Jinjiao moved forward step by step, getting closer and closer to the Phoenix Wing Gilded Halberd.
Just as they got close, a gentle voice came from within.
"It seems that you are the only little guy who has completed three Nirvanas, comprehended the laws of Nirvana, and possesses a Nirvana body."
"Greetings, senior!"
Jinjiao raised his hand and bowed.
From any perspective, the person in front of me is a senior figure!
Upon hearing these words, bursts of laughter immediately emanated from the phoenix-winged gilded halberd.
"There's no need for that. Since you're the only one, come with me. I'm afraid only you can do this."
"I?"
Jin Jiao raised an eyebrow; he still didn't fully understand the Phoenix Clan's true scheme.
However, since that's the case, he doesn't mind following this person.
After all, the Phoenix Lord had already seen through his identity, and if he really wanted to make a move, he could have done so from the very beginning.
There's no need to go through such a long and complicated process.
Of course, most importantly, this is just one of his clones.
His fall did not cause him much harm.
Moreover, at this moment, he was in the Phoenix Clan.
If anything goes wrong, even if the Phoenix Clan reveals his identity, a large number of demons will not believe it.
From any perspective, the Phoenix Clan doesn't harbor any ill intentions towards him now.
The dragon and phoenix then followed the artifact to the center of the altar.
This place is a pool of blood, but the precious blood in it is almost gone.
Each drop of precious blood was crystal clear, with a golden-red hue, making it exceptionally extraordinary and far from an ordinary treasure.
Jinjiao's eyes shone brightly, and an undisguised look of surprise immediately appeared in them.
A surge of greed seemed to rise within him, as if he wanted to swallow these things whole immediately.
But he forcibly stopped this greed.
He inherited the legacy of the Bashe Demon Lord and recognized what this thing was—the true blood left behind by Yuan Feng.
It was left behind by that Phoenix Clan Ancestor!
When the Demon Lord Bashe broke into the Phoenix Clan, one of his main objectives was to directly seize this treasure.
After all, this item was an irresistible treasure even for Bashe, who had become the Demon Lord.
"Senior, why did you bring me here?"
Jinjiao forcibly suppressed his greed and spoke.
"Naturally, it's for Feng Yao of my clan?"
Laughter echoed from the Golden Wings Hall, and someone said, "This place is called the True Phoenix Pool. It is a treasure he left behind. Feng Yao, this is the final step in your transformation. Absorb a drop of the ancestor's essence blood!"
Upon hearing these words, Feng Yao nodded solemnly, a flurry of emotions flashing across her eyes.
"Yuan Feng's blood?"
A surge of overwhelming curiosity welled up within Jinjiao.
After all, the bloodline of the Ancestral Dragon is extremely rare, and he is the only one in the entire Dragon Clan.
However, the Phoenix Clan's bloodline can be passed down from generation to generation. It seems that the method they use is this blood pool in front of them.
"I wonder what this so-called final transformation is?"
"The final step of transformation is also very simple; absorbing just one drop of the Primordial Phoenix's blood is enough, however..."
Hearing Golden Horn's words, a gentle voice came from the Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd: "This is true Nirvana, which requires truly dying once to complete."
"Even within my Phoenix Clan, few juniors can achieve this. After all, when faced with a life-or-death situation, who can easily overcome it?"
"Of course, if successful, the benefits will be equally immense, namely, the complete mastery of the Nirvana Law and the Nirvana True Fire."
"You should have felt it just now; the Nirvana True Fire has a miraculous effect on forging the physical body of the Demon Lord."
Jinjiao frowned slightly upon hearing this, and then said, "Senior, what you're saying sounds like you're trying to lure me into undergoing a similar rebirth?"
"Ha ha……"
The phoenix-winged gilded halberd laughed.
"You guessed correctly. Do you know why we opened this treasure vault, and why these guys even stepped into our clan's Phoenix Nest?"
"If I'm not mistaken, besides winning people's hearts and forming karmic connections, it must be a selection process?"
Jin Jiao raised an eyebrow and spoke.
"It's really easy to talk to smart people, at least you don't have to explain yourself repeatedly like some of the fools in the demon race."
The phoenix-winged gilded halberd turned slightly and then looked at Feng Yao, who had remained silent until now.
"You can talk to him from here on out."
"it is good."
Feng Yao nodded slightly, took a deep look at Jin Jiao, and said, "The final Nirvana is extremely dangerous. Even a phoenix could be burned inside and out and turn to ashes."
"I need a protector, a protector who can share the burden of Nirvana's true fire with me, and who is strong enough."
"I see." Jinjiao nodded slightly, then said, "I see. No wonder I felt something was off about this trial. That's why you need me to be your protector."
His gaze was fixed on Feng Yao, and he saw the Five Virtues Phoenix nod slightly, then shake her head.
"What do you mean?"
"It could be you, or it could be any other demon."
"Ha ha……"
Golden Horn chuckled repeatedly: "Interesting. I can be this protector. I'm also very interested in the Nirvana True Fire, but..."
He paused, then looked at the two people present. "Let's get this straight: although the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan have indeed formed a marriage alliance, why should I believe that this isn't just your side of the story?"
"Perhaps the final nirvana will not require my help to share the burden, but rather my life?"
Although Jinjiao was confident that the Phoenix Clan would not attack him here.
However, if saying these words could extract something more from Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd or Feng Yao, it would be entirely beneficial.
After hearing these words, the room fell silent.
"Do you think the Dragon Clan would just stand by and watch the Phoenix Clan betray you?"
Laughter suddenly rang out from within the phoenix-winged gilded halberd.
"That's not necessarily true..."
Jinjiao spoke calmly.
Hearing this, Feng Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud, "So cautious, just like you..."
"It's just that I've been through a few more life-or-death situations. Although I've never truly been resurrected, I've experienced just as many life-or-death situations as some Dao Lords or Demon Lords."
Jinjiao spoke calmly, his demeanor elegant and composed.
Having the ability to travel between two worlds, he has experienced far more life and death than ordinary people.
And this is his greatest tactic.
At this point, he could use this as a reason to get the Phoenix Clan to give him sufficient benefits.
After all, his relationship with the Phoenix Queen wasn't close enough to be inseparable even in life and death.
"This little dragon cub is really stubborn. How can we persuade him? Oh dear, his temper is somewhat similar to that of the old dragon." "Old dragon? Senior, are you perhaps referring to the Ancestral Dragon?"
"Of course, who else could it be but that old dragon?"
Phoenix-winged gilded halberd sneered.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Feng Yao chuckled and said, "Fortunately, Father had a premonition and has some evidence to give you."
"Oh?"
A look of surprise appeared on Jinjiao's face as he looked at Feng Yao.
As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Yao stretched out her small hand, and a swaying golden dragon phantom appeared in her palm.
The little dragon seemed to be roaring faintly, and almost immediately, Golden Horn felt the bloodline of the dragon race tremble slightly.
Dragon Lord!
The next moment, a bright golden scale flew out from the Golden Horn's body!
That was none other than the protective treasure given to him by the Dragon Lord.
Since they have come from the ancestral land of the Phoenix Clan and are out of sight of the Dragon Clan, even with Ao Qing accompanying them, how can they reassure those old dragons?
The dragons specially obtained a dragon lord's scale and placed it on Golden Horn's body. In the event of any crisis, the dragon scale will break through his body.
Even if the Five Virtues Phoenix Lord were to take action, at least he could block it for a while.
The dragon lord would naturally notice this immediately and send a helping hand.
"The matter of Nirvana is indeed true. Although the benefits are great, there are also many risks involved. It is up to you. I will not interfere further."
That voice was vast and deep, a true dragon's low murmur.
"It's actually true..."
Golden Horn could not possibly be mistaken about that Dragon Lord.
He pondered for a moment, then said, "Since the Dragon Lord is here to testify, I naturally believe this to be true."
"Why didn't you just agree sooner? Let's see what kind of guy you are after the marriage?"
Laughter emanated from the gilded phoenix-winged halberd, and then it spoke: "The truth has been revealed. Are you willing?"
"If the benefits you mentioned are correct, then it wouldn't hurt to give it a try."
"it is good."
The phoenix-winged gilded halberd trembled slightly, as if a living person were nodding in agreement.
“Come with me, this is the greatest benefit this place offers you.”
The Phoenix Winged Gilded Halberd rose slightly into the air, and immediately exuded an aura of the two great Daos of time and space.
Golden Horn immediately became alert and saw that the surrounding world was as if it had encountered a constant lock, which was slowly unlocked by the power emanating from the Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd.
Ban lifted!
Jinjiao took a deep breath.
The spatial and temporal manipulations created by this Dao artifact have already surpassed the level of a Venerable, and even vaguely touched upon the realm of a Dao Lord.
This is because Yuan Feng has already perished, and the spirit within the artifact is severely injured, retaining only a trace of consciousness.
Even so, its power exceeded his imagination.
"Just like the dragon race, they have used the Myriad Dragon Pearls throughout the ages..."
Golden Horn nodded to himself, thinking of some of the things in the Dragon Clan's treasure vault.
"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and catch up!"
Beside her, Feng Yao patted Jin Jiao on the shoulder, then chuckled and stepped forward.
Golden Horn glanced at the many powerful demons who were still climbing the stairs or fighting for treasures, and immediately followed.
The moment they stepped in, the surrounding space suddenly stretched out, as if they had come from a vast plain to a narrow passageway.
Golden Horn followed and entered, constantly operating the Great Dao of Space to maintain himself, while also observing Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd, which was using its own Great Dao methods to clear a path.
This Dao artifact has already transformed into a fiery phoenix that is constantly soaring and gracefully moving about.
The surrounding heaven and earth seemed to retreat, not daring to approach.
The Five Virtues Phoenix Feng Yao is like a bright lamp in the heavenly palace, illuminating the world.
In a short while, a crimson halo brimming with life appeared before Golden Horn's eyes.
It was a vast, blood-red ocean, where everything floated and sank, exuding an extremely rich vitality, somewhat resembling the legendary Netherworld Blood Sea.
"Here?"
Jinjiao also hesitated, which seemed quite different from what he had seen outside.
"Hehe, what you couldn't see from the outside just now was nothing more than a projection, not reality."
"This is the place that bears the Phoenix Blood; you may call it..."
"Fengchi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them arrived at the location.
At the same time, the aura of the Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd and Feng Yao seemed to excite this vast ocean, and the so-called Phoenix Pool was suddenly stirred up with surging waves that never stopped!
Furthermore, an extremely clear and melodious phoenix cry came from afar.
Rumble...
The entire sea of blood now surged with waves, endless and boundless, the vast waves rising straight to the sky.
In the vast, boundless sea of blood, one could vaguely see dozens of golden lights moving about, like fish swimming freely.
"Then, is that the true blood left behind by Yuan Feng?"
Jinjiao hesitated before speaking.
"Indeed, this is what he left behind."
The Phoenix-Winged Gilded Halberd swayed back and forth, then vibrated and transmitted its voice, "You two should go together. Just fuse with one drop of the Primordial Phoenix's blood. Trying to do too much at once will only lead to burning yourselves to death."
"This is a way to share the flames. Take it safe in case of unforeseen circumstances."
As soon as he finished speaking, the spirit of the Phoenix Winged Gilded Halberd separated into a stream of light.
Jinjiao grabbed it, and many profound mysteries immediately surfaced in his mind, all related to the Nirvana True Fire.
After standing there for a moment, pondering the matter, Jinjiao slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"Alright, I have fully grasped its mysteries."
Jinjiao and Fengyao exchanged a glance, then headed towards the vast ocean.
Splash...
The waves surged instantly, and then, centered on the dragon and the phoenix, began to slowly spread in all directions.
It was as if an invisible force was parting the sea of blood here.
Suddenly, from the depths of that vast ocean, a golden-red halo burst forth, appearing in the eyes of Golden Horn and Feng Yao like the rising sun at dawn.
It was a drop of blood, a drop of blood that had transformed into the shape of a phoenix, radiating an endless, vast aura, as if the peerless power that founded the Phoenix Clan was still alive.
"What terrifying pressure..."
Jin Jiao couldn't help but be startled.
If we exclude the two Dao Lords of the Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan that he had met before, and only consider those fallen powerhouses, perhaps only the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor can be compared with the Phoenix Blood before him.
"Perhaps, between the Dao Lord and the Demon Lord, apart from the different Dao they cultivate, there is still a gap in their realms."
Jin Jiao seemed to be deep in thought.
At that moment, the drop of phoenix blood floated completely in front of him and Feng Yao. (End of Chapter)
