Chapter 732: Phoenixes Do Not Land in Places Without Treasure (Second Update, requesting all)

During this fortuitous encounter, the Crowned Blaze Bird successfully evolved into the Demi-God Beast Crowned Sunlight Luan; its species, bloodline, and even quality advanced further, and its strength can be said to have improved significantly.

With the Crowned Sunlight Luan's current strength, it is completely no worse than Aixi, and in some aspects, it even holds the advantage.

The Crowned Sunlight Luan did not immediately stand up from the bird's nest; it was still continuing to absorb the Special Energy.

It was just that after a night of absorption, the Special Energy had already been depleted by more than half, and what remained was naturally insufficient to allow the Crowned Sunlight Luan to continue evolving, though it did have a certain possibility of raising its quality to the next level.

As the Special Energy continuously decreased, the light spot representing the Crowned Sunlight Luan was also slowly becoming brighter.

Unfortunately, once the Special Energy was completely consumed, the Crowned Sunlight Luan still had not reached Epic quality.

Even so, it was not very far from the critical point; as long as it evolved one more time or was fed one or two portions of Fire Spirit Grass, Li Zhangsheng believed the Crowned Sunlight Luan could reach Epic quality.

This time, it could be considered a great fortuitous encounter for the Crowned Sunlight Luan.

Chirp—

Only at this moment did the Crowned Sunlight Luan raise its head high and emit a loud, clear cry; if it were not for the Restriction blocking it, Li Zhangsheng believed the entire Academy District and even Peng City would have been alarmed.

Immediately, Li Zhangsheng used the mental channel to communicate telepathically with the Crowned Sunlight Luan, asking what kind of inheritance it had obtained this time.

Demon Beast-level demon pets that have refined their throat bones should, logically speaking, be able to communicate with humans.

It was just that Li Zhangsheng's demon pets were too young, and the Common Tongue was very complex; unless they possessed powerful linguistic talent like Kailan, there was no point in hoping for it in the short term.

Very quickly, Li Zhangsheng received the answer.

This time, the Crowned Sunlight Luan's gains could not be said to be small.

In terms of traits, the Crowned Sunlight Luan's Scorching Sun was changed to Great Sun Projection; just as Wood Realm Descent is to a grassland field, the Great Sun Projection trait could also be said to be an evolved form of the Scorching Sun trait.

The Great Sun Projection trait has already reached the category of top-tier traits; upon appearing, it forms a Great Sun Projection, with a temperature far exceeding the giant fireball formed by the Scorching Sun trait, providing better amplification for Fire Element skills while simultaneously weakening the power of Water Element skills to a greater degree.

Besides this, in such a harsh environment as the Great Sun Projection, the stamina depletion rate of non-Fire Element demon pets will become very terrifying.

Of course, this trait is only suitable for duels; otherwise, one's own demon pets would also be severely affected, and at that point, it would be a rhythm of killing a thousand enemies while suffering eight hundred losses oneself.

In terms of inherited skills, Li Zhangsheng did not know how it happened, but the Crowned Sunlight Luan actually obtained three inherited skills at once.

Phoenix Wing Heaven Soar: A Phoenix Inheritance skill; it releases fierce flames outside the body, transforming into a phoenix bathed in fire, instantly erupting with several times the speed, and inflicting great damage upon the enemy.

To put it simply, Phoenix Wing Heaven Soar is equivalent to an enhanced version of Flame Charge; both its instantaneous explosive power and damage far exceed Flame Charge.

Phoenix Dance: A Phoenix-exclusive skill; it significantly increases agility.

Phoenix Dance is as famous as the Dragon Clan's Dragon Flight skill; both can significantly increase agility.

The Crowned Sunlight Luan is naturally a high-agility demon pet; although it is not as good as Aixi or Kailan, the difference is not large, and if it were to use the Phoenix Dance skill, its speed would likely not be much inferior to Aixi after being buffed with five layers of Wind Cloak.

Clearly, this is another skill with a very high cost-performance ratio.

Phoenix Arrival: A Phoenix-exclusive skill; it can Predict Good or Ill Fortune. Note: It can only be predicted once every three days, and there is a certain margin of error.

This Phoenix Arrival is quite similar to the Cang Mao's Predict Good or Ill Fortune, only the functions of the two are different; the former can allow one to turn danger into safety in a perilous place, while the latter can only predict the daily fortune.

However, like Predict Good or Ill Fortune, Phoenix Arrival also has a certain margin of error, so it is best not to rely on it too much.

After Li Zhangsheng understood the inheritance the Crowned Sunlight Luan had obtained, the Crowned Sunlight Luan communicated with him again, recounting all the scenes from its Consciousness Sea during the evolution.

"That phoenix has likely already fallen; it's no wonder the Crowned Sunlight Luan could obtain so many benefits."

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself; the benefits the Crowned Sunlight Luan obtained were not just these, as the phoenix's combat techniques and experience were equally important, and even if it were only a portion, it would be enough for the Crowned Sunlight Luan to face various challenges with more reasonable combat methods.

At this time, the Crowned Sunlight Luan sent over another thought.

"I also know where that phoenix went!"

It turned out that besides the inheritance, the Crowned Sunlight Luan had also obtained a certain amount of that phoenix's memories.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves; Li Zhangsheng's face was full of surprise, and he hurriedly asked: "Where did it go?"

"That phoenix was preparing to head to Flame Canyon to seek reinforcements; as for whether it succeeded, I don't know."

Flame Canyon is not within the borders of Langya Kingdom, and it is over a thousand miles away from Langya Kingdom; for some unknown reason, it burns with scorching flames all year round, which is how it got the name Flame Canyon.

This is a world-renowned Forbidden Land; almost no one who has entered has ever come out, and even those who luckily came out would not say a word about matters concerning Flame Canyon, making Flame Canyon full of mystery.

Regarding this Forbidden Land, Li Zhangsheng naturally had no thoughts of taking risks; after all, there had been Kings who entered Flame Canyon, and more than one, but what awaited them was death.

Since that phoenix was preparing to head to Flame Canyon to seek reinforcements, Li Zhangsheng had reason to suspect that Flame Canyon was the territory of another phoenix.

Li Zhangsheng felt that only after becoming a Double-Character King would he test out Flame Canyon; after all, by that time, even when facing a phoenix, he would have the confidence to retreat unscathed.

Before becoming a Double-Character King, Li Zhangsheng would naturally not take risks easily.

"By the way, who was that phoenix's enemy?"

"I don't have that part of the memory!"

Li Zhangsheng continued to ask: "What about that Phoenix Egg?"

"I don't have that part of the memory either."

Li Zhangsheng said puzzledly: "Then what do you actually know? Say something interesting."

The Crowned Sunlight Luan revealed a thoughtful look, and after a few breaths, it transmitted a thought to Li Zhangsheng.

"A phoenix does not land in a place without treasure; I know three locations where it once stopped!"

Upon hearing news about treasures, Li Zhangsheng immediately revealed an excited look; he was the type of person who loved collecting all kinds of treasures the most.

"Which three locations?"

"Looking at the map, one is at Jushi Ridge in Yuan Province, and the other two are abroad. However, over a hundred years have passed, so it's possible these treasures have already been snatched up by others."

The Crowned Sunlight Luan had Li Zhangsheng take out the Langya Kingdom map, and after observing it specifically, it determined one location.

As for the maps of other countries, Li Zhangsheng did not have them on hand for the time being, but he believed Yuanling Academy definitely had them.
