Chapter 965: Lin Feng's Busy Six Couples

Even so, had it not been for her husband later inserting numerous high‑grade herbs obtained from Dou Saint relics inside.

Just absorbing that ancient heavenly phoenix's residual soul and bone marrow, whether she can successfully break through to Dou Saint is already questionable.

But Qinglin, that girl, only intended to go out and control a few eighth‑rank serpentine demons, and ended up in this valley discovering a perfectly preserved ninth‑rank heavenly snake corpse.

What to say about this luck, she has no words.

When Qinglin heard Feng Qinger's explanation, she finally understood just how valuable the heavenly snake corpse before them truly was.

However, after seeing the endless length of the corpse with a single glance, the girl looked to Feng Qinger with a pleading gaze.

After all, being that massive, even the capture ring they hold cannot contain it.

Thus, the best solution is to deal with it right there.

"Alright, I'll help extract its demon core and see if any blood remains inside."

As she spoke, Feng Qinger flicked her delicate fingers, instantly forming a greenish wind blade dozens of zhang long, which she thrust horizontally across the nine heads of the ancient heavenly snake.

"Clang!"

However, when Feng Qinger's wind blade struck the first desiccated, wrinkled massive head, it did cut into the dried flesh, but instead of slicing straight through the snake's head as expected, it hit the neck bone of the corpse, producing a sharp metallic clang.

Then the wind blade cracked and shattered into fragments scattering everywhere.

"What a hard bone—perhaps the original Saint of Creation's skeleton was less than a tenth as hard as this nine‑headed heavenly snake!"

Watching the unexpected scene, Feng Qinger's slightly slender face instantly showed a surprised expression.

It should be noted that although the Saint of Creation's skeleton was hard, if one were truly unafraid of damaging the bones, even at Dou Zun Realm one could shatter it.

And although her earlier attack seemed modest, it could easily slay several Dou Zun beings; if the target were the Saint of Creation's skeleton, it would be like cutting a melon, splitting it in an instant.

Yet the neck bone of that nine‑headed heavenly snake corpse actually withstood her strike!

At the same time, Qinglin, seeing this, involuntarily opened her pink lips wide.

No other reason—the scene before them was truly shocking.

After all, in Qinglin's perception, Feng Qinger's previous strikes could instantly slice her small frame in half.

But that seemingly desiccated, shatter‑upon‑contact demon beast corpse—more precisely, the bone beneath the dried flesh—stubbornly resisted the attack!

"Looks like I'll have to exert some effort then."

Seeing this, after her shock, Feng Qinger inhaled lightly, and a pair of crimson‑and‑azure wings spanning several hundred meters unfurled from her back.

With the wings' appearance, Feng Qinger's violet eyes were instantly bathed in a flash of golden light.

Such a sight would surely shock any other heavenly demon phoenix present.

Because Feng Qinger has now transcended the realm of heavenly demon phoenixes, becoming the long‑lost thousand‑year‑vanished heavenly phoenix!

Indeed, after undergoing two bloodline evolutions, Feng Qinger has now taken the final step.

She has become the only living heavenly phoenix on the current Dou Qi Continent!

Moreover, Feng Qinger's heavenly phoenix bloodline is not that of an ordinary phoenix; by rank, its concentration is roughly seventh grade.

Of course, since the ninth‑rank heavenly phoenix voluntarily let her absorb its residual soul, her current Dou Qi level, even compared to a native seventh‑grade bloodline from before the phoenix's extinction, cannot match it.

However, although the bloodline's evolution raised her talent and ceiling, the accompanying tragedy is that she can no longer take reckless risks.

After all, with her current bloodline's imposing pressure, anyone with a clear mind among the heavenly demon phoenixes would see the issue.

At that time, the ancient undead in the clan who are obsessed with the heavenly phoenix might immediately use that as an excuse to isolate others and forcibly drag her into unspeakable acts.

Indeed, although she is now powerful, those ninth‑rank ancient undead are determined, and she, whose bloodline has not fully awakened, finds it hard to resist.

After summoning the wings, Feng Qinger's jade feet, wrapped in flat embroidered shoes, lightly touched the ground as her graceful body floated upward toward the sky behind her.

"Qinglin, step back a bit; later you might get caught in the fallout."

After the wings appeared, Feng Qinger's beautiful eyes looked down at Qinglin and reminded her.

"Alright."

Hearing the former's reminder, Qinglin finally snapped out of it, quickly gathered Dou Qi, tapped the ground with her foot, and instantly darted hundreds of meters away, eyes fixed on the endless corpse.

"Wing Wind Blade!"

Seeing Qinglin flee, Feng Qinger then coolly uttered the two words from her delicate mouth.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"

As soon as Feng Qinger's words rang out, the pair of azure‑red wings spanning hundreds of meters behind her flapped lightly, launching several azure‑red wind blades that shot straight at the nine heads of the heavenly snake corpse.

"Clang clang clang!"

"Crack."

When those wind blades struck the necks of the nine‑headed snake corpse, a series of metallic clangs and shattering sounds suddenly echoed through the valley.

Immediately thereafter, the nine heads of the snake corpse were all torn away from the neck.

At the same time, the wind blades that hit the snake's neck were blasted away by the powerful recoil, plunging straight into the surrounding peaks.

Of course, more wind blades shattered into countless fragments, scattering amid the clash with the nine‑headed snake's bones.

However, Feng Qinger had no leisure to worry about whether those wind blades damaged the surrounding mountains.

At this moment, her attention was wholly on the corpse below.

After witnessing the ancient snake's body and heads being torn apart, Feng Qinger swiftly waved her palm, and in an instant a gentle stream of Dou Qi whooshed out, lifting the nine shriveled snake heads into the air.

Then, with her pink lips slightly parting, a continuous stream of black flames erupted from them, rushing toward the massive demon beast heads and encircling them.

After enveloping those huge snake heads, Feng Qinger extended her palm and then clenched it into a fist.

Simultaneously, the flames' temperature surged, scorching the demon beast heads.

As for the origin of these black flames, they are naturally the Beast Fire inherent to a heavenly phoenix's body.

Although this flame is weaker than the fused exotic fire Lin Feng wields, in sheer power it surpasses many lower‑rank exotic fires on the list.

Therefore, Feng Qinger employs her own Beast Fire to refine the ancient heavenly snake's demon core, and it is more than sufficient.

As for Qinglin nearby, upon seeing the refinement process proceed smoothly, she realized this extraction would likely not be quick.

Then she immediately released the two eighth-rank snake-type magic beasts she had subdued these days, with Feng'er's help, and the seventh-rank snake-type magic beasts she already had from her time at the Heavenly Snake Mansion.

"You few, go to each direction of the valley to stand guard; if you discover any other situation, send out a warning immediately."

Her emerald eyes gazed at the few people before her; more precisely, they were magic beasts that had taken human form, and Qing Lin immediately gave orders.

The several magic beasts controlled by the Green Snake Triple-Flower Pupil would naturally not refuse the controller's command.

Thus, as soon as the former's words fell, the several magic beasts controlled by Qing Lin respectfully performed a salute, then vanished instantly from the spot, flying off in all directions of the valley.

Meanwhile, while Feng'er was concentrating on her refining, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye about ten days had passed.

During this period, Lin Feng, who was deep in the void, had an especially solemn expression.

Not far ahead of him, a heavy cyan giant cauldron hovered, its surface engraved with many curved patterns.

But upon close observation, one would find that these patterns ultimately formed the shape of a giant dragon.

Furthermore, as the exotic flame inside the medicine cauldron burned, the patterns on the cauldron were also stained with traces of fire, eventually covering the entire cauldron and forming a black fire dragon.

However, Lin Feng's current focus was not on those patterns on the medicine cauldron at all; his gaze was completely drawn to the pale green pill inside the cauldron.

Indeed, after nearly ten days of nonstop refining, Lin Feng finally condensed into a pill.

Now, one only needs to give that pill a final nurturing, and it will successfully be completed.

However, while he was concentrating on refining the Bodhi Pill, Yun Yun on the other side had successfully merged with the Origin of the Earth Source Gang Wind, causing her battle qi to mutate, gaining a strand of gang wind power, greatly increasing her battle qi's might.

Moreover, her battle qi realm also broke through to the Dou Zun Realm, and after a period of consolidation it stabilized naturally at the one-star Dou Zun Realm.

After that, Yun Yun, who had nothing else to do, helped Cai Lin bring Lin Zhao to decorate the newly built city so she could feel at ease.

To be more precise, they were renovating a small city located in a lake several kilometers wide at the city's center.

Because in everyone's design, the area outside the lake is a public zone where outsiders can open shops, inns, etc., and compared to other cities there is no difference.

If one wants to be even more precise, the only difference is that there is a bit more greenery, otherwise there is not much difference.

However, the lake area at the city's center was specially designated by Lin Feng and others as a residence for their families.

Later, Lin Feng will also set up some formations here for defense; anyone who intrudes will immediately suffer an attack.
