Chapter 1825: Flowing Light Divine Phoenix

Consequently, Li Canghai recounted the previous events to Old Cao as well.

That scoundrel Old Cao slapped his thigh violently and said, "This matter really requires me!"

"Hehehe... what a coincidence, I happen to know where this Divine Phoenix is!"

He He Pingsheng and Li Canghai both had their eyes light up instantly.

Old Cao looked at He He Pingsheng and said, "Young Master, the Divine Phoenix with three divine fire flowing light feathers that Old Li mentioned is called the 【Flowing Light Phoenix】, also known as the 【Flowing Light Divine Phoenix】."

"This creature is a branch of the Phoenix!"

"Its grade isn't considered high; it's basically a peacock possessing a trace of Phoenix bloodline!"

"Hmm... although it also cultivates fire-attribute divine power, it has almost no combat ability. Generally speaking, in the Divine Realm, it is only kept as an immortal pet!"

"Because it looks good, hehehe..."

"Of course, it still has some use... it can be ridden and is capable of long-distance flight!"

"However, experts who have reached the Divine Imperial Realm and Divine Spirit Realm no longer need to rely on demonic beasts for flight; they either fly themselves or use divine boats!"

"Either way, both are faster than pure demonic beast flight!"

"We have no need for this kind of thing, Young Master, why do you want it?"

"Enough!" Li Canghai said, "Stop your incessant chatter. This matter is of great importance, just tell us where this Flowing Light Divine Phoenix can be found?"

Old Cao said, "Heavenly Phoenix City, do you know why it's called Heavenly Phoenix City?"

"Forget it, I won't ramble... as for things like the Flowing Light Divine Phoenix, there are at least two families in Heavenly Phoenix City that keep them!"

"I happen to be quite familiar with one of those families. Young Master, if you don't mind, shall I take you out to have a look?"

"If you are busy, this old servant can go alone as well."

He He Pingsheng said, "It's not that urgent... you should go into seclusion first to stabilize your cultivation base!"

"Once your cultivation is stabilized, the three of us will go over together to take a look!"

This trip out was, on one hand, to purchase the Divine Phoenix, and on the other, to take this Divine Phoenix to exchange for the 【Heaven-Facing Crown】. Both tasks were likely not easy.

Therefore, He He Pingsheng decided to take the field himself.

It just so happened that he had been in seclusion at home for a bit too long.

"Understood!" Old Cao immediately returned to stabilize his cultivation.

Several days later, He He Pingsheng entrusted everything at home to Su Su Zhenzhen, had her expand the family's grand array to its maximum, and left behind a communication divine talisman before finally departing.

Old Cao deployed the divine boat, and the three of them headed directly south of Heavenly Phoenix City.

After flying continuously for six days, they finally found a reclusive family deep in the mountains: the Tang family.

"Young Master, please look..."

The massive divine boat stopped in the void, and the three of them stood on the deck at the very front of the flying boat.

Looking down, the landscape was a spectacular sight.

Emerald mountain forests and undulating ranges stretched out, but further ahead, this stretch of mountain wilderness and forest looked as if it had been rawly severed by a blade, neatly slicing out a massive rift.

Within the rift, earth fire surged, and molten lava shimmered with scorching light.

"Because the Flowing Light Divine Phoenix is tainted with a trace of Phoenix bloodline, it has a relatively high demand for fire-attribute divine power during its gestation!"

"The Tang family relies on the geographical advantage of this lava rift to breed third-tier Divine Phoenixes for generations!"

"However... calling them Divine Phoenixes is really just a stretch; they are just peacocks carrying a trace of Phoenix bloodline!"

He He Pingsheng nodded: "Let's go, let's go down and take a look!"

The three of them put away the flying boat and transformed into flowing light, landing at the entrance of the Tang family.

The Tang family was a large family, a four-star one!

There was one expert in the Divine Monarch Realm within the family.

However, He He Pingsheng had two Divine Spirit Realm experts by his side; although they couldn't compare to a Divine Monarch Realm expert, this combination was still quite intimidating regardless of how one looked at it.

Therefore, when the three of them appeared before the Tang family mountain gate, and given that they were old acquaintances, they were quickly invited into the family!

"Apologies... two seniors... our family's Third Elder Tang is not in!" A woman dressed in black received the three of them: "If the three of you have any requirements, just tell me. This little woman's name is Tang Wan."

The Tang family's Third Elder was the old friend Old Cao had mentioned, but unfortunately, the person was not at home.

He He Pingsheng scanned the woman.

The woman's cultivation was not considered high; she was at the eighth layer of the Divine Imperial Realm.

"Greetings!" He He Pingsheng said: "Fellow Daoist Tang, we have come to your Tang family wanting to select and purchase a third-tier Divine Phoenix!"

"Oh!" Tang Wan smiled: "That's fine... Senior and Fellow Daoist, please follow me... this way!"

The four of them swept across the Tang family and soon arrived at a separate mountain peak!

Behind the mountain peak was another valley. Looking down, quite a few peacocks were being raised in the valley.

"Senior, please look!" The woman said: "The grade of a Divine Phoenix is judged based on the number of flowing light feathers on their bodies!"

"The higher the number, the more true Phoenix blood contained within its body!"

"It is said that these flowing light feathers are themselves the feathers of a Divine Phoenix!"

"Look, the Divine Phoenixes we raise here have at most seven flowing light feathers!"

He He Pingsheng indeed saw them.

The maximum was seven.

"That is the case!" He paused and said, "We want to select a Divine Phoenix born with three flowing light feathers!"

"Not only must it have three flowing light feathers, it must also be a female Phoenix, and furthermore, its left foot must be blue!"

"About what is the price?"

"Uh..." Tang Wan thought for a moment and said: "As for the price, the other things are not important; the most important thing is the number of flowing light feathers!"

"For a Divine Phoenix with three flowing light feathers... six hundred pieces of solid divine gold!"

"If paying in divine gold value, this amount is approximately six hundred billion!"

He He Pingsheng nodded.

To tell the truth, this price was not high.

After all, it was a third-tier demonic beast.

And precisely because this demonic beast had no combat ability and could only be kept as an immortal pet, the price was not high.

At the same time, He He Pingsheng finally learned the exchange ratio between solid divine gold and divine gold value: one piece equals one billion!

This was also the reason why, back at Divine Dream Mountain, Hong Lian Nihong had asked him why he wanted to come to Divine Dream Mountain to seek opportunities when he had mid-tier divine gold.

Solid divine gold was too precious.

"Understood!" He He Pingsheng nodded in agreement: "Troubling you, Fellow Daoist!"

"It's nothing!" The woman said: "Wait a moment, I will go and return shortly!"

Then she personally walked down into the valley to select a Divine Phoenix.

Half a day later, the woman ran back up with a worried expression and said: "Fellow Daoist... there isn't one that meets your requirements..."

"This is the closest one!"

As she spoke, she threw a Divine Phoenix in front of He He Pingsheng.

He He Pingsheng took a look; this peacock was entirely blue, its left foot was also blue, but its right foot was red.

Its tail was densely covered with hundreds of blue feathers, but right among these hundreds of blue feathers, there were four golden feathers.

"It's a female!" Tang Wan continued: "The left foot is blue, but... it has four flowing light feathers!"

"It has one more than the three you requested!"

"Is this acceptable?"

"Acceptable, acceptable, acceptable..." Before He He Pingsheng could speak, Old Cao waved his hand and said: "More is better than less!"

"It's hard to deal with less, but if there's more, I'll just pluck one out and it'll be done!"

"Hehehe... Young Master, what do you think?" ===== CHAPTER 1826 =====
