Chapter 122: Phoenix Ancestor, Jiang Sheng, Star Opening

Underground, the earth-core fire boiled!

"Now is the time!"

Jiang Yuan's recently gathered vitality, using the remnant cultivation hidden in his bones and blood, was triggered.

The vitality from the living soil, like a divine medicine that can rejoin tendons and mend bones, revived and filled Jiang Yuan's exhausted meridians, and flowed into his shattered dantian.

His eyes instantly turned completely black, as if the whites had vanished, but his cultivation, at the moment vitality poured into his dantian, returned like a swallow to its nest.

"Hum!"

The Star Phenomenon Mountain on Hunyuan Peak suddenly trembled.

On the alchemy platform, since it was the finals, everyone had their own source fire, so they were unaffected by the earth-core fire's turmoil in their alchemy.

Being distracted is inevitable! Even the most focused person cannot focus now.

The earth-core fire rolling beneath all the divine patterns seemed about to burst out, and they were afraid.

"Cry!"

A melodious phoenix cry rang out.

A huge azure phoenix materialized.

Its power, like myriad threads of light scattered from the sky, fell upon the alchemy platform, stabilizing all the divine patterns about to explode, to ensure other innocent alchemists would not be affected by Shen Qingli.

This was originally the affair of Shen Qinghuang, Shen Kuo, and Di Jin, but Shen Jing did it instead, and everyone felt especially relieved, for he was an old undying famed for ten thousand years, thus more convincing.

"What is this for?"

The forces originally worried about their own alchemists being affected, although still a bit worried, could now sit steadily in the stands and did not rush onto the alchemy platform.

The Cave Heaven Old Ancestor, however, seized the moment to raise an objection: "Disrupting the competition order! Someone, seize Shen Qingli,"

"Boom!" The overbearing universal aura scattered the Cave Heaven Old Ancestor's words.

The Star Phenomenon Mountain repeatedly trembled, causing the old monsters of the Primordial Origin Sect to pay especial attention, to the point of neglecting supervision of Jiang Yuan.

Thus, Jiang Yuan conveniently used the arrival of the Star Phenomenon Mountain to swiftly restore his cultivation, and stirred the earth-core fire into a full riot, breaking the seal that the Primordial Origin Sect had placed here.

Originally, the earth-core fire riot was meant to help Jiang Yuan break the seal on his body.

The arrival of the Star Phenomenon Mountain, however, was to help him unlock the seal on that small courtyard.

Now, the seal on Jiang Yuan's body has already been destroyed by Shen Qingli with the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire.

So, even if the Star Phenomenon Mountain arrived early, the earth-core fire's frenzied riot, under Jiang Yuan's guidance, burst out of that small courtyard.

"Look!" Someone had already seen the rear courtyard of the Primordial Origin Sect on fire.

Ji Bai's complexion suddenly changed after he had just staunched his vomiting of blood, but he, continuously injured, could not fly over at all.

"Hahahaha!"

Jiang Yuan laughed loudly to the heavens!

"Children! Come!"

Jiang Yuan shot up into the sky, and Ji Wanxing immediately flew away.

Feng Yimo, Zhao Qingshan, Zhuge Yun, and the other elders of the Heaven Star Sect promptly rose as well.

"Nonsense!"

Yuan Changzai shouted loudly, trying to stop Jiang Yuan and the others, even though he didn't know what they intended, but stopping them was certainly correct.

However, it was too late; after Jiang Yuan emerged, the immense power emanating from him was like pulling the dark universe from beyond the heavens.

The sky, darkened.

Only the splendid azure phoenix remained on the alchemy platform, emitting light and protecting the young alchemists.

Shen Qingli gazed up at the firmament, saw those familiar faces, and felt relieved.

At this moment, Mr. Huayuan, Mr. Tao, and others also leapt into the air.

All members of the Heaven Star Sect were present, none missing.

From now on, it was no longer her concern.

She sat cross-legged, focusing wholeheartedly on alchemy.

The final step of forming the pill required even more of her focused mental power, to condense into a perfect soul-formation pill.

"Star Phenomenon, open."

Jiang Yuan activated the primordial source, and the sky grew darker! As if night truly descended.

Ji Wanxing and the others assisted, as streams of power from the Heaven Star Lineage enveloped the Star Phenomenon Mountain.

The Star Phenomenon Mountain's starlight glittered, as if it had descended from the misty realm to the mortal world, its light illuminating all directions.

"What is this for?"

No one understood! Yuan Changzai and Ji Bai did not know either.

In fact, Ji Wanxing and the others were not entirely clear either.

Only Jiang Yuan truly knew exactly what to do.

The Star Phenomenon Mountain had come, yet it had not come……

This legendary mythical illusory mountain range exists in another spacetime.

Although its position is now correct, due to temporal isolation it cannot actively break into the real world; it must be drawn by someone sharing its origin, only then can it truly manifest.

Moreover, this drawing cannot be done by just one person.

Because it is a mountain, not a person, it requires seven points to converge into one.

Jiang Yuan is the leader; Ji Wanxing, Feng Yimo, and their six elders are the seven points.

And the convergence……

is Mr. Huayuan and the others.

For the first time in history, the Heaven Star Sect gathered all its members to open the Star Phenomenon Mountain, and in doing so pulled it into Sheng Long Tian.

At this moment, let alone Sheng Long Tian, the Divine Realm shook!

Star Phenomena Mountain is even more extraordinary than anyone could imagine of Sheng Long Tian.

"Hum!"

Its true base gradually split into Sheng Long Tian.

"It won't collapse the sky, will it?!"

Many people were a bit terrified!

This celestial phenomenon seems like the apocalypse has descended!

Yuan Chang and the old monster were still trying to approach Jiang Yuan to stop him!

But they couldn't get close to him, nor could they get close to Jiang Yuan and the others.

As for Liu Meng and her three fellow disciples, before the Primordial Origin Sect's people had noticed them, Di Jin had already brought them to the seats of the Changshui Shen clan.

Liu Meng looked at Feng Yimo and the others, her eyes full of sparkling starlight, "What are you trying to do?"

"Guiding the Star Phenomena Mountain," Zhan Yuefeng stated.

Li Yidao held his sword, still wearing a stern expression as he gazed at the elders above.

"Guiding the Star Phenomena Mountain?" Liu Meng did not understand.

Zhan Yuefeng, however, gazed at Shen Qingli, who was fully focused on refining pills.

Liu Meng suddenly realized, "For Little Junior Sister?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Shen Qinghuang hurriedly said, "Is this something to joke about?"

Shen Yuan, however, looked at Shen Kuo, "What's going on?"

"What Little Liu Meng said should be true."

"What the heck?" Shen Yuan was shocked!

Then he hurriedly looked at Shen Jing, "Ancestor, did you soundproof our chat?"

Shen Jing glanced at them, his expression indifferent but his meaning clear—he had indeed blocked it.

Shen Yuan let out a breath, "No, they're treating A Li this well? This gift, this offering, is simply too much!"

"No, is that the point? The point is this mountain being sent down—can A Li bear it?" Shen Qinghuang was about to die of anxiety.

"Star Phenomena Mountain—can the Primordial Origin Sect give it? This is a hot potato! Moreover, other powers can't just watch the Shen clan gain another blessed land, can they?"

Shen Yuan also finally realized, "Ah, right! This is too hot to handle, we can't accept it."

"We must accept it," Di Jin said.

At the same time, Jiu Li also looked up at the sky, his gaze strange.

After a moment, when the base of the Star Phenomena Mountain fully appeared in Sheng Long Tian,

it let out a cry, "Little star!"

The Star Phenomena Mountain trembled, then seemed to become impatient!

Sheng Long Tian suddenly shook violently, followed by—

"Hum!"

A cascade of starlight, like the Nine Heavens' Milky Way falling to earth, poured down upon Shen Qingli.

As Shen Qingli raised his head, the Vermilion Bird Divine Seal on his forehead blazed ever brighter, holding back the starlight.

The two sides seemed to have reached a stalemate, then…
