第两千三百七十四章 凤凰涅盘

Lin Xuan widened his eyes, almost thinking he had mistaken what he saw. But the scene before him was crystal clear: the crystalline nucleus of the Yang Liping Bird had indeed completely melted.

Lin Xuan's knowledge was vast, but such a sight was something he had never heard of or seen before, let alone experienced.

All that remained were shock and astonishment.

He had merely tried this with blue star sea purification as an experiment. He never dreamed it would end up like this.

If this substance melted away, wouldn't the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix also be in vain?

Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel heartache. After all, compared to ordinary true spirits, the true blood of a phoenix was clearly more precious.

But with things as they stood now, regret and remorse were useless. Lin Xuan lowered his head again and looked at the mysterious liquid in his palm.

The liquid shone brightly, presenting a dazzling silver color.

No, it wasn't entirely silver; correctly speaking, the liquid had two layers: most of its outer part was bright silver, but inside, there was an entirely different kind of liquid.

Crimson like blood!

Lin Xuan's pupils constricted and his heart rate accelerated. Could this be...

But now, he didn't have time to guess further; he immediately released his divine sense.

Soon enough, Lin Xuan raised his head, the frustration and disappointment on his face vanishing completely, replaced by a look of surprise.

Truly, a fool has good luck "No, it's like a blind cat catching a dead mouse. I thought I had accidentally destroyed this treasure, but in reality, through sheer coincidence, I managed to purify the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix.

Looking at the crimson substance amidst the silver liquid, Lin Xuan nodded with certainty; this was undoubtedly the blood of the phoenix, the king of all birds.

Since he had already purified the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix, his next task would be much easier. In fact, it could almost be considered routine; he just needed to use the True Spirit Jade Technique to refine it.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan took a deep breath and was about to proceed with the refinement when something unexpected happened again.

The silver liquid and the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix entered his body as if water met soil, easily seeping into him.

Why is this happening?

Lin Xuan was greatly alarmed. He wasn't unfamiliar with true spirit blood; however, he had never encountered a situation like this before.

Without using the True Spirit Jade Technique, the phoenix's blood had entered his body on its own. Whether this change was good or bad, Lin Xuan didn't know for sure but couldn't afford to be careless.

He vaguely felt that there might be a connection between this and the blue star sea he used to purify the crystalline nucleus. Thus, he quickly employed Inner Vision to immerse his mind.

Sure enough, he found some clues: after entering his body, the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix immediately transformed into countless thin threads, traveling along the extraordinary meridians toward his dantian.

Lin Xuan frowned. The Sea of Qi was the most crucial part of a cultivator's body. What consequences would arise from the mixing of this true spirit blood?

Lin Xuan didn't know; simply put, it was unknown.

Since the outcome was unpredictable, Lin Xuan naturally wanted to prevent any harm. Given his cautious nature, he hated situations that were beyond his control.

However, none of his attempts to stop the blood's journey to the dantian and Sea of Qi worked.

Lin Xuan could do nothing but watch helplessly.

But he wasn't willing to give up.

In his dantian, both the demonic infant and the toothy infant opened their eyes. The main spirit was visibly stronger after successfully advancing.

The thin threads entered the dantian; with a wave of its hand, the main spirit emitted a green glow that swept toward the blood threads.

An unexpected scene unfolded before Lin Xuan's eyes again.

These blood threads, seemingly uncontrolled, seemed to have a life of their own as they converged into a small blob of true blood from the Heavenly Phoenix.

This true blood then spread outwards and eventually transformed into a blazing flame. The green glow instantly melted away upon contact with it.

The sudden change caused the spirit's expression to shift.

A hint of suspicion appeared on the toothy infant's face, but he hesitated before not immediately acting.

The flames burned more fiercely as a clear sound echoed. A small phoenix leaped out from within.

Phoenix reborn, rising from the ashes.

The toothy infant's expression changed dramatically. Although still uncertain, if he hesitated now, it would be too late.

A dark look flashed across his face as he raised both hands and cast an extremely mysterious hand seal.

As he moved, the previously calm lake beneath his feet suddenly churned like a storm had passed over, creating terrifying waves of water that rose into the air.

Interwoven water columns formed a giant net that enveloped the small phoenix.

In my domain, I am in charge. In the dantian and Sea of Qi, the spirit's strength was significantly enhanced compared to before.

However, what followed left Lin Xuan speechless. The seemingly powerful water columns failed to hinder anything; they were like paper-thin clay figures, easily broken through by the phoenix as it continued its journey toward the depths of the dantian and Sea of Qi.

"Damned little brat, so hard to deal with."

The toothy infant's face was filled with frustration. But quickly, he seemed to have noticed something; his expression changed drastically: "No... Not good."

Lin Xuan was equally panicked because the direction in which the phoenix flew led directly to the blue star sea.

If it were just a coincidence, that would be one thing, but if it had planned this...

Lin Xuan's eyes turned red with frustration. He regretted his actions deeply; what did he gain by refining the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix? While its blood was indeed precious, compared to the blue star sea, it seemed insignificant.

After all, Lin Xuan had reached this stage in the immortal path thanks not only to his luck and efforts but also due to the blue star sea. Without it, who knew if he would have even broken through the barrier of the dantian phase or become a divine spirit realm powerhouse like he was now?

The blue star sea was Lin Xuan's most important secret and treasure; even the Five Dragon Seal couldn't match its importance. No matter what, Lin Xuan wouldn't allow anything to happen to the blue star sea.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan moved at incredible speed toward his opponent. However, it was too late.

Puff...

The phoenix's claws moved, tearing a rift in space. Among all true spirits, the phoenix excelled in spatial abilities; chasing after it would be like a dream for Lin Xuan.

The phoenix flashed and appeared right in the middle of the blue star sea before diving onto the Five Dragon Seal.
