Chapter 858: Feng'er Transforms the Crisis

Holy shit, you've been dead this long—do you have to be so fierce!

Gazing at that energy pillar that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth, Lin Feng instantly became flustered.

After all, judging by the power of that energy pillar, even a high-rank Fighting Venerable could suffer heavy injury if they were careless.

"Damn it, I don't believe I can't subdue you, a remnant soul that's been dead who knows how many years!"

Thinking of that terrifying aura earlier, it might leak out and attract the covetous gazes of many powerful ones.

Lin Feng also felt extremely irritated in his heart, glaring fiercely at the rapidly expanding light pillar before him.

Then he extended both hands, and likewise burst forth with brilliant golden light.

"Myriad Gang Shatter-Body Fist!"

With a shout erupting from Lin Feng's mouth, he clenched his right fist and fiercely struck down at that golden light pillar.

"Boom—!"

Afterward, they also dared not delay, quickly increasing their Qi output, strenuously maintaining this barrier before them.

"Cry!"

In an instant, that space barrier shuddered violently, and numerous spider‑web‑like cracks immediately appeared.

Immediately after, his body went limp, he dropped to one knee, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Feng grimaced as he shook his painful right palm, while secretly feeling a bit relieved in his heart.

With a flap of its massive wings, the entire sky trembled at that moment.

And after being blown back several tens of meters, the former barely managed to stabilize his stance.

Seeing this, the Fighting Venerables of the Wind Thunder Pavilion had their pupils contract sharply.

However, that wasn't the end; when that light ring struck the spatial barrier surrounding the Ye Institute, it did not dissipate but continued to bombard that barrier.

"Boom!"

"Careless of me—I didn't expect that after nurturing the Ancient Sky Phoenix with the Dragon‑Phoenix Origin Fruit, it would still possess such formidable power."

The next moment, the two golden energies collided without surprise.

If it weren't for his palm, which had previously been tempered by Gold Spirit Saliva, this time he would at least have suffered a shattered bone.

As for Lin Feng at this moment, he was directly blown away by the golden light pillar emitted from within the Ancient Sky Phoenix's skeleton.

Soon after, a Golden Light Sky Phoenix swiftly took shape within that light pillar.

"Pfft~"

Accompanied by the golden light ring, the impact struck the surrounding Ye Institute buildings; in an instant, those structures that had dodged catastrophe behind the flying stones were all snapped at the waist.

Next, that light ring instantly slammed into the spatial barrier encircling the Ye Institute!

Then the light pillar surged again, brilliant golden light bursting forth violently.

At the same time, the other light pillar, sensing provocation, emitted a clear phoenix cry that pierced straight to the soul.

Then a substantial ring of golden energy spread outward from the point where the two energies collided.

Such a spectacle left everyone astonished!

And as that Golden Phantom Phoenix took shape, flapping its wings, it swooped down upon Lin Feng, blotting out the sky.

Under that immense shadow, he instantly felt an irresistible force.

"This thing—I shouldn't have burned it if I'd known!"

Gazing at the nearly sky‑covering Sky Phantom Phoenix, Lin Feng's heart instantly began to regret meddling with this thing.

He hadn't expected before that this thing could actually erupt with such terrifying energy!

But now that it's come to this, he has no way to retrieve those bones.

Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and face it head‑on.

Thinking this through, Lin Feng gritted his teeth, and the Strange Fire within his body was immediately mobilized.

"Husband, are you alright?!"

However, just as he made a move, Feng Qinger flew over from afar, shouting anxiously.

"It's fine, Feng'er—run far away quickly; wait till I defeat this illusion, then we'll talk."

Seeing his wife run over, Lin Feng hurriedly told her to run farther away.

After all, this thing's combat power is too great; even if he exhausted all his methods, he had little confidence in defeating it.

Thus, he still felt it better for Feng'er to stay far away.

Upon hearing his concerned words, Feng Qinger lightly shook her head, then smiled and said: "It's fine, husband—step aside for a moment; although this Ancient Phantom Phoenix is powerful, I do have a way to deal with it."

"You have a way?"

Hearing Feng Qinger's words, Lin Feng blinked in surprise, his face showing a hint of astonishment.

But soon he realized, his wife is none other than the Heavenly Demon Phoenix.

And this kind of demonic beast is a descendant of the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

Thinking this way, it's understandable that she has a means to deal with that Ancient Phantom Phoenix before us.

Thinking thus, he immediately shifted his body slightly aside.

As Lin Feng shifted his body aside, Feng Qinger promptly placed her jade finger to her lips and bit down hard.

Then she withdrew her finger, and drop after drop of pale gold blood fell from that scallion‑white jade fingertip, hovering before her.

At the same time, Feng Qinger's face, which was filled with a noble hue, also became extremely solemn.

She gazed at the blood, then extended her jade fingertip to lightly trace in front of her.

Moments later, a strange golden rune appeared out of thin air in the sky.

"Junior, I awaken the ancestral spirits with my own blood!"

Immediately after, Feng Qinger respectfully knelt in mid‑air, her clear voice echoing slowly: "The Sky Phoenix clan now withers; I, the junior, wish to revive our clan's former glory—may our ancestors grant this."

As her words fell, the golden rune before her suddenly burst forth with brilliant light, pouring down from the horizon.

When the light shone on the Celestial Phoenix's illusory form, it suddenly stopped moving, frozen in place.

Immediately after, that terrifying illusory form appeared in Lin Feng's somewhat disordered gaze.

It turned into a golden light and flew back into the huge gray skeleton.

Is-is this settled?

Looking at the illusory form that had just made him wary beyond measure, it was resolved so easily in the blink of an eye; Lin Feng's mouth twitched involuntarily, leaving him somewhat speechless.

Although he knew Feng Qinger could summon the remnant soul of this ancient Celestial Phoenix.

But he didn't know she still had this move!

Thinking of this, Lin Feng couldn't help but complain: "Feng'er, if you had a way to deal with this guy, why didn't you say so earlier? It caused me to get injured by him before."

"But before you stirred the ancestral soul, I also didn't know there was still an ancestral soul inside this skeleton."

Afterward, Feng Qinger spread her hands and laughed: "I previously thought all of this ancestor's energy had been absorbed by the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit; who knew there was still so much."

Hearing that, Lin Feng helplessly scratched his head.

In the original story, it seems Feng Qinger truly did not sense the remnant soul of the ancient Celestial Phoenix at first.

Only after being reminded by a Dou Zun elder in the clan did she then know.
