Chapter 488: Phoenix Child Ascends to Dou Zun

"You really are lucky."

Hearing the former's words, Feng Qinger gently stroked her white, tender chin and said in a slightly envious tone.

After all, whether it's the Heavenly Demon Phoenix or the Ancient Void Dragon, each seeks to incorporate the other's advantages into itself.

In this way, one can possess both the Ancient Void Dragon's near‑divine spatial manipulation and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix's terrifyingly swift speed.

The fusion of the two would be the strongest among the demonic beasts.

And the optimal method for such a fusion is to devour the Dragon‑Phoenix Primordial Fruit, becoming a Dragon‑Phoenix.

However, the formation of the Dragon‑Phoenix Primordial Fruit…

…requires the Ancient Void Dragon and the Ancient Celestial Phoenix to fall at the same location and almost simultaneously, giving only a one‑in‑a‑million chance of forming.

Consequently, it has been exceedingly rare throughout history.

Moreover, the Ancient Celestial Phoenix is now extinct.

Therefore, for thousands of years this world has never seen the Soul Primordial Fruit appear.

"By the way, since you previously studied the Sound Wave Combat Technique, you shouldn't waste this Dragon Roar and Phoenix Cry. When I next return to the clan, I'll bring you a scroll of advanced Sound Wave Combat Technique to practice. After all, I, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, am also very proficient in the Phoenix Chant, and there are plenty of Sound Wave Combat Techniques within the clan."

After a while, Feng Qinger came to her senses and immediately said to Lin Feng.

"Hehe, I shall thank you here first, madam; next time I will reward you properly."

Lin Feng, hearing this, scooped her into his arms with a mischievous grin.

"To hell with you, that's just rewarding yourself."

Feng Qinger, seeing the former's full‑face mischievous grin and knowing his thoughts, said irritably.

"Hehe, I see Feng Qinger's aura has become truly powerful now; surely the harvest is equally great."

At this moment, Xiao Yixian suddenly walked over, smiling lightly.

"Indeed, Feng Qinger's gains are far greater than mine; in this short time she vaulted directly from the Four‑Star Dou Sect to Dou Zun. Moreover, that energy seems to have a part still stored within her body; if she were to absorb it all, it would surely surge once more."

Lin Feng nodded and said with a hint of helplessness.

Now the two women beside him have already entered the Dou Zun Realm.

But he is still stuck circling the Dou Sect Realm, which makes him feel rather frustrated.

Seeing him like that, Xiao Yixian chuckled: "Just take it easy. Feng Qinger and I were able to ascend to the Dou Zun Realm at this age thanks to our unique bodies and ancestors. Your strength, however, has been built piece by piece through various methods; that can't compare."

Saying that, she tossed a jade box in her hand to Lin Feng.

He took it and saw it was a jade‑green bodhi seed.

Only then did Lin Feng recall that the bodhi seed he had refined earlier had been kept in Xiao Yixian's hands all along.

Immediately, he placed it into his absorption ring.

"By the way, during the time you were in the Light Cocoon, Yao Lao came to see you. He has now refined that pill, his luck being decent, and has advanced to Five‑Star Dou Zun."

At this point, Xiao Yixian spoke again.

Hearing this, Lin Feng exclaimed excitedly: "Yao Lao has advanced to Five‑Star Dou Zun, and you are also a Five‑Star Dou Zun, and Feng Qinger as well; this time we have also successfully advanced to Dou Zun, so even if someone tries to raid or kill, we can fully handle it."

"Now let's summon Yao Lao, leave this Great Western Desert, and head to the Ye Family in the Central Region."

Lin Feng calculated his own combat power and then said.

"Fine."

Xiao Yixian nodded, a hint of excitement flashing in her beautiful eyes.

She also wanted to see what the legendary Pill Tower actually looked like.

As for Feng Qinger, she said: "I've been out for so long; I should return now. However, I will first go back to the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, avoiding contact with those inside the clan. After a while, I'll return to the clan."

Lin Feng naturally gave unconditional support to the former's decision.

After all, regarding the Heavenly Demon Phoenix clan, Feng Qinger is the one who knows them best.

Her decision is always more correct than those of him and Xiao Yixian.

Then the three of them promptly left the room one after another and knocked on the door of Venerable Tianhuo's chamber.

"Lin Feng, you brat, you finally showed up; I've been waiting for over half a month."

Seeing that it was Lin Feng and the two women, Venerable Tianhuo instantly exclaimed excitedly.

"Alright, let's set off for the Central Continent's Central Region; earlier I made an arrangement with the Ye Family of the Pill Tower to represent them in the Five Great Families assessment. Moreover, in about two more years the Pill Assembly will occur, and I need to check the Pill Domain before then."

Lin Feng looked at the former's excited expression and smiled lightly.

He also knew that the former had been pent up for too long.

After all, before this he had been trapped for hundreds of years beneath the Burning Qi Tower in the inner courtyard.

Now that he finally regained his flesh, he is once again stuck in this dull Great Western Desert.

Thus, Venerable Tianhuo naturally wanted to go out for a stroll.

"Fine, the Central Continent's Central Region is bustling; I also miss it greatly, let's go there for a walk."

Upon hearing about the bustling Central Region of the Central Continent, Venerable Tianhuo immediately exclaimed excitedly.

Immediately, Lin Feng and his companions, under the watchful eyes of a group of followers,

stepped out of the inn, sprinted toward the Western Region of the Central Continent.

In the eternally unchanging desolate desert, only the constant gale howled.

At that moment, several black specks streaked in from the distance across the sky, breaking the silence.

Soon after, the specks expanded rapidly, forming four figures: two men and two women.

And those four figures turned out to be Lin Feng's party.

However, after flying for a while, the group suddenly halted.

Then Lin Feng addressed the empty surrounding space: "You've followed us for so long, aren't you going to come out?"

"Whoosh~"

Not long after the former's words fell, the surrounding space that originally appeared normal suddenly split open with a pitch-black crack.

Immediately afterward, five figures emerged one after another from within it.

Among the five, two wore azure robes, and on their left chests bore the insignia of the Azure Wood Manor.

One of the azure-robed elders was undoubtedly Ye Huaicheng, whose strength had reached the Seven-Star Battle Saint level.

As for the other azure-robed elder, Lin Feng and his companions had never seen him before.

He must be the Second Elder of the Azure Wood Manor that Ye Wensen mentioned.

As for the remaining three, Lin Feng had never seen them either.

He speculated that they might be the people he had offended at the previous Mysterious Capital Trading House auction.

Or perhaps they were people who, seeing his generosity at the auction, wanted to make a fortune.

However, among them was an old man who appeared to be only in his early fifties, with hair half black and half white.

Yet his soul power was extraordinarily strong.

Even Lin Feng, whose soul was at the peak of the Mortal Realm, felt that the gap between himself and that old man was vast.
