Chapter 65: Phoenix Ring, Falling Phoenix Gate
Suddenly.
Lu Tianyu felt the small tripod being restrained and unable to move, and he was immediately struck with terror.
Furthermore, the small tripod revealed its form, completely exposed before Gui Sheng Xie Yi.
He secretly thought it was bad; a Void-Cave Stage cultivator was truly formidable and simply not someone he could resist.
"Eh?"
Gui Sheng Xie Yi grabbed the small tripod in her hand and toyed with it back and forth.
Looking at the mysterious runes on it, she narrowed her eyes: "The grade of this small tripod is very high; even I cannot see through it. It is definitely a good treasure!"
"It was in my room just now, yet I didn't even notice it. Its concealment ability is so strong!"
Afterward, she said in a deep voice: "Come out, I know you are inside!"
"If you don't come out, I will smash this small tripod!"
How could Lu Tianyu possibly come out: "What big talk!"
"If you can smash this small tripod, I will submit to you!"
As he spoke, a burst of divine sense no weaker than the Great Vehicle Stage suddenly assaulted Gui Sheng Xie Yi.
"Ah!"
Gui Sheng Xie Yi screamed and slapped the Heaven-Swallowing Tripod away: "You, are you an Emperor Realm cultivator?"
She leaped off the bed and stared at the small tripod before her with a grave expression:
"No! If you were an Emperor Realm cultivator, you would have no need to hide inside a tripod, acting sneakily and not daring to come out. Who exactly are you?"
"If you don't come out, I will use the Azure Sky Flame to roast you out!"
Gui Sheng Xie Yi brushed her jade hand over her Storage Ring.
A miniature three-colored flame appeared in her palm.
The red, white, and yellow flames flickered slightly, and the temperature in the room rose sharply.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The three-colored flame surrounded the Bahuang Heaven-Swallowing Tripod, rotating slowly.
"Azure Sky Flame?"
Lu Tianyu sneered: "This flame of yours doesn't seem like much."
"I entered your room unintentionally. Let me leave, and you and I shall have no quarrel!"
Gui Shen Xie Yi snorted coldly: "Then I will burn you out!"
She pinched incantations with both hands, driving the Azure Sky Flame.
But the next second, she exclaimed: "Purple Crystal Flame, how is this possible!"
"Stop at once!"
A purple flame the size of a soybean flew out from the mouth of the tripod.
The Azure Sky Flame seemed to have received a summons; like a moth to a flame, it was sucked into the Purple Crystal Flame and vanished.
Pfft!
With her natal flame devoured, Gui Shen Xie Yi spat out a mouthful of blood, her face flushed.
However, her reaction was extremely fast; she rapidly cast a series of dharma seals with both hands to fix the Purple Crystal Flame in place:
"Since it has swallowed my Azure Sky Flame, this Purple Crystal Flame belongs to me!"
Swish!
Lu Tianyu flew out of the Heaven-Swallowing Tripod: "Senior, please calm your anger!"
"This junior did not intend to offend you, I ask for your understanding."
"I have no use for this Purple Crystal Flame for the time being, so I can lend it to you for now!"
Gui Sheng Xie Yi snorted coldly: "In your dreams!"
"Since you have already seen through my identity, how could I allow you to leave alive!"
"Give me your life!"
A heaven-shaking pressure suddenly erupted from her body, enveloping Lu Tianyu.
Her slender jade fingers slowly extended, reaching for Lu Tianyu's forehead.
The movement appeared slow, yet it was fast to the extreme!
Lu Tianyu sighed lightly, extended his palm, and held it high: "Look, what is this?"
Caw~
A loud and clear phoenix cry rang out.
In the center of Lu Tianyu's palm, a fire-red miniature phoenix flapped its wings as if it were alive.
Caw!
At the same time, a miniature phoenix appeared faintly on Gui Shen Xie Yi's neck, also emitting a phoenix cry.
It seemed to be responding to the Phoenix Ring.
Gui Sheng Xie Yi's palm stopped at Lu Tianyu's forehead, and she exclaimed in surprise: "This is the Phoenix Ring, how do you have the Sect Master's ring!"
"Where did you get it?"
She stared at the miniature phoenix in Lu Tianyu's palm in disbelief, her body trembling slightly.
Lu Tianyu smiled slightly: "You don't need to ask about that."
"You only need to know that I am the Sect Master of the Falling Phoenix Gate and can cure the Profound Yin Cold Poison in your body."
"But I have a prerequisite."
He had revealed himself just now because of a reminder from Qian Gu Nu Di, who said there was a dark red Fenghuang Yinjie on Gui Sheng Xie Yi's neck.
The Fallen Phoenix Gate is a sect established by the Qian Gu Nu Di while she was still in the Ling Jie, and its members are very few and highly secretive.
However, every member of the Fallen Phoenix Gate possesses unique skills; for instance, the medical arts of the Gui Sheng Xie Yi are peerless in the world.
The sect leader's ring of the Fallen Phoenix Gate is the Phoenix Ring, and every sect member has a Fenghuang Yinjie on a different part of their body.
Once a sect member receives the summons of the Phoenix Ring, the Fenghuang Yinjie on their body will respond.
Lu Tianyu had not expected that the Gui Sheng Xie Yi would actually have a connection to the Qian Gu Nu Di.
Moreover, the Qian Gu Nu Di has already left the Ling Jie for a long time, yet the legacy of the Fallen Phoenix Gate still remains.
Even someone as powerful as the Gui Sheng Xie Yi strictly follows the traditions of the Fallen Phoenix Gate.
Hoo!
The Gui Sheng Xie Yi let out a long sigh: "My Fallen Phoenix Gate sect leader inherits the Phoenix Ring, so naturally, they are the sect leader."
"As the Medical Envoy of the Fallen Phoenix Gate, I must naturally obey!"
She knelt on one knee: "Fallen Phoenix Gate Medical Envoy Qing Yuan pays respects to the Sect Leader!"
"I offended the Sect Leader just now; I ask the Sect Leader to punish me!"
Lu Tianyu reached out to help Qing Yuan up: "This cannot be blamed on you; after all, you did it unintentionally."
"Sit!"
He walked over to a chair by the wall and sat down, then pointed to the chair beside him.
Qing Yuan said: "This..."
Lu Tianyu emphasized his tone: "Sit!"
After Qing Yuan sat down, Lu Tianyu immediately asked: "Why are you afflicted with Profound Yin Cold Poison?"
"I observe that there is a scent of rotting corpses on you; why is that?"
Qing Yuan frowned tightly: "I am naturally of the Profound Yin Physique; the foul odor is the scent that is emitted when the Profound Yin poison flares up and becomes difficult to suppress."
A trace of sadness appeared in her eyes: "When my master was still alive, she would use the Nine Yang Divine Art to suppress my cold poison."
"She has been gone for many years, and I am unable to suppress it myself, causing a strange odor to emanate from my body; I ask the Sect Leader to forgive me."
As she spoke, she stood up to bow to Lu Tianyu, her complexion looking very poor.
She herself found the stench on her body disgusting, let alone others.
Lu Tianyu said "Oh": "Profound Yin Physique? I understand."
"The rumors outside say you like men; it seems you are trying to temporarily suppress the cold poison by absorbing the Yang Qi from men."
"Then, was the Fenghuang Yinjie on your body also passed down to you by your master?"
The Fenghuang Yinjie of the Fallen Phoenix Gate is branded by the Phoenix Ring, but it can be passed down to descendants.
However, it can also choose not to be passed down.
This also shows the loyalty and longing Qing Yuan's master had for the Qian Gu Nu Di.
Qing Yuan nodded: "Yes."
"My master told me before she passed away that the Fallen Phoenix Gate would eventually regain its former glory, and that a heaven-defying person would lead the sect to rise again."
"It seems this person must be the Sect Leader."
She stared at Lu Tianyu in confusion: "I observe that the Sect Leader has no cultivation base; it should be that the dantian is damaged."
"But the dantian area is shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see through; it is very strange."
Having said this, Qing Yuan bowed and said: "If you need Qing Yuan to act, please let the Sect Leader inform me."
Lu Tianyu smiled, and he did not hide it: "I accept your good intentions."
"My dantian was sealed by myself, and it can be unsealed at any time."
"Next, I will use magic to extract the cold poison for you and pass the Profound Yin True Scripture to you."
