Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

"Little thief, hand over the phoenix blood!"

The huge and infinite black shadow overhead attacked again, and the five-colored divine light wrapped in thousands of layers of colorful clouds crashed down like a tsunami. Thousands of miles of land were instantly crushed into slag, turning into a chaotic and blurred state.

Dragon scales protect the body!

The dark green dragon scales on the body surface sparkled brightly, and although the five-colored divine light was sharp, it could not tear through the defense formed by the power of the true dragon.

Looking at Qi Xiu who was protected by dragon scales with a cold gaze, the peacock suddenly opened its mouth and a terrifying suction force that could swallow the sky and the earth erupted instantly.

It was as if there was a black hole between heaven and earth that swallowed everything. Countless pieces of rubble mixed with the earth and turned into earth tornadoes that rolled upwards and were continuously sucked away.

His body was caught by the suction force and he couldn't help but move closer to the black hole. Qi Xiu shook his body and the appearance of a true dragon appeared. A terrifying power that shook the world suddenly brewed from the dragon's mouth.

The golden thunder accumulated in his mouth, overflowing into the void, vibrating endlessly!

The next moment!

I saw the golden thunder suddenly turned into a towering blue dragon, carrying with it terrifying power and majestic momentum, as if it seemed to destroy the heavens, piercing through the void and slamming into the black hole.

Rumbling--

Golden thunder splashed and groans of pain resounded!

Thunder was running all over the peacock's body, its fur turned black from the electric shock, and the peacock looked in pain. A small hole was forcibly opened in its beak, and its powerful demon blood, like mercury, turned into large stars and fell down.

"Deserve to kill! Deserve to kill!"

Seeing his originally beautiful and flawless hair being charred and curled up by electricity, the peacock's pupils trembled and he was furious.

The five-colored feather screen that covered the sky behind him suddenly unfolded, like a sky curtain. The stars were shining on it, faintly condensing into a pattern of heaven and earth, emitting incredible power.

Peacock spreads its tail!

The feather screen behind the peacock flickered slightly, flowing with the light of the avenue. For a moment, it seemed to be in control of the heaven and earth, releasing infinite domineering power. The area of ​​thousands of miles suddenly turned into a world of five elements, and beams of five-colored light rose from the ground.

"Small world method?"

Qi Xiu's eyes moved slightly when he realized that the rules of the world around him began to distort and change.

The small world method is the unique method of the Yuanshen Zhenzun, except for the True Dragon clan.

Being able to perform such miraculous skills also means that this peacock is also a true spirit.

However, as the entire Five Elements world unfolded, Qi Xiu discovered something strange.

That is, although this world of five elements has distorted and changed the original rules of heaven and earth, it is not completely separated from the original heaven and earth, forming an independent space.

Without independence, how can we talk about the world?

Qi Xiu's expression flashed with enlightenment, and he understood: "I understand, this is not the complete small world method.

Instead, this peacock relied on its own powerful talent to imitate the small world method of Yuanshen Zhenzun and evolved a method on its own.

This cannot be called the Dharma Realm.

It would be more appropriate to call it the Dharma Realm."

The Five Elements Domain covered over, and the Five Elements light pillars suddenly transformed into powerful and arrogant chains, sweeping towards Qi Xiu.

Although this Five Elements Law Domain is not as powerful as the real small world law, it also possesses some of the power of the small world law.

These chains of the five elements are the evolution of the Five Elements Dao, and are built with the Tao and Dharma of the Peacock.

Anyone who is entangled by it and fails to escape the Three Realms and is not within the Five Elements will be completely suppressed and at the mercy of others.

Peacock wanted to use the five elements chain to restrain Qi Xiu.

So as to take the four streams of phoenix blood from his body.

However, what Peacock didn't expect was.

The greedy thief in front of him, who clearly already had the inheritance of the True Dragon but still wanted to lay his hands on the inheritance of the Phoenix, surprisingly also understood the Five Elements.

Although in terms of attainments, it may not be as good as this divine bird that was born following the Five Elements.

But when it comes to familiarity with the Five Elements, the two of them are definitely no less familiar.

The dragon's eyes moved slightly, taking in the sweeping five elements chains. Qi Xiu turned over and struck with his dragon's tail. The power of a true dragon suddenly erupted, blazing across the sky and illuminating all directions. With one strike, he forcibly smashed these Taoist chains that were surging with the five elements' suppressing power.

Although Qi Xiu could not use the five elements as he transformed into a real dragon, he knew exactly how to deal with the five elements.

The power of the five elements shattered and turned into a dazzling rain of light, making the peacock's face even more gloomy and chilling.

"Don't look at me like that, you little bird.

Although you are born as a divine bird, you are still far inferior to my true dragon bloodline.

Even though I cannot defeat you, I can still fight with you for a thousand or eight hundred years without any problem.

How about this, you and I make a deal?"

Gazing at the peacock whose momentum was constantly accumulating, Qi Xiu was very calm. During the previous chase, he had already seen that the peacock did not actually want to kill him.

But for some reasons, I have to take action again and again.

So he spoke at this moment just to test this divine bird and see if it was really as he guessed.

Then the current situation will definitely be reversed.

"What are you talking about! Trespassing into the forbidden area and usurping the Phoenix Blood, these two things alone are enough for this Great Sage to grind you to dust."

There was a fierce look in the peacock's eyes and its voice was like thunder, shaking the heaven and earth.

However, despite such a momentum, he did not make a forceful move. Instead, he stared at the Taoist in front of him with sharp eyes, as if waiting for his next words.

"Haha, I see that you are restless and angry.

I think I've been living in one place for a long time, so I should go out for a walk to relax.

If you help me obtain the Phoenix inheritance, you will remove the shackles from my neck.

Wide sea diving, sky high the birds to fly.

You are a divine bird born, but you don't want to fly and see the world outside.

Could it be that you want to stay in this cage forever?

Wait till you die?"

Qi Xiu spoke calmly and indifferently, but every word was like a gem, and it chiseled into Peacock's heart one by one.

Yes, it has been four thousand nine hundred and sixty-one years since he was born!

Day after day, year after year!

After nearly five thousand years, he had already become bored and irritated with every corner and every bit of space in this world.

He is a divine bird!

It is a divine bird that can soar into the sky and travel across the universe with just a spread of its wings!

And this world is like a birdcage, trapping him here.

He wanted to go away, to leave here and go to a wider and more vast world.

But it is a divine bird that guards the inheritance.

He could not go against the mission passed down from generation to generation by the Peacock clan.

unless……

The pupils that were gleaming with brilliance fell on the Taoist who inherited the true dragon heritage. Peacock was silent for a moment and then spoke again.

"How can I trust you?"

After hearing Peacock's answer, Qi Xiu was certain.

It worked. I was right. Although this peacock was chasing me all the way, its aura was erratic and it hesitated repeatedly. It had no intention of killing me at all.

He was hesitant, but he had to chase me all the way because of his duties.

“Because you have nothing to lose.

Regardless of whether I succeed in obtaining the inheritance or not, the worst outcome for you is that I fail, and you continue to stay here, which is no different from now.

But if I succeed, the bird cage will be opened, and you will have a way out." Qi Xiu said calmly.

He won't make any promises.

Because that would make him seem more urgent.

The peacock is still hesitating, and any clue will cause him to change his mind.

After hearing Qi Xiu say this, Peacock's expression suddenly became indifferent, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes again.

“Don’t forget, besides you, there are two other people who have also entered this place of inheritance.

If I am not mistaken, these two people are both true Yuanshen.

According to what you said, there will be more hope if I, the Great Sage, go to help them."

"Oh? Really? Then go and help them."

Hearing what Kong Que said, Qi Xiu smiled faintly, not caring at all, and said meaningfully;

“But if the Phoenix inheritance is taken away by them, I’m afraid someone will be abandoned.

After all... that is the True Spirit."

As soon as Qi Xiu said this, Peacock's pupils suddenly narrowed.

He had also considered this problem, and said this deliberately to test the Taoist's character and courage.

The great divine prohibitions of Phoenix Nest all originate from the inheritance of Phoenix Emperor.

Once the inheritance is taken away, the entire Phoenix Nest will collapse, not to mention the divine prohibitions of the Great Dao.

If those two true souls really took the Phoenix inheritance.

Then when the Phoenix Nest collapses and the divine ban of the Great Dao disappears, I'm afraid that all the living beings in the entire Phoenix Nest will have no chance of survival.

Including this so-called guardian bird.

"Have you thought about it? With the means of those two Yuanshen Zhenzun, they will soon know the existence of Phoenix Blood.

Perhaps, they have already started collecting phoenix blood."

Seeing that Peacock was still hesitating, Qi Xiu decisively added another handful of firewood.

He is now certain that this peacock has long wanted to break free from the constraints of this world and go to the outside world.

It's just that due to some restrictions, I have been unable to leave.

The term "adopted son of the Phoenix" was just a saying from earlier years. Perhaps the Peacock Clan long ago still regarded it as an honor.

But in the eyes of the peacock in front of him, he didn't care at all whether he was an ungrateful son or not.

Urged by Qi Xiu, Peacock's wavering expression gradually became solemn, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

"Okay! I will trust you, little thief, just this once."

After receiving Peacock's affirmative response, Qi Xiu transformed into a human form with a smile on his face.

With the help of this guardian bird, his chances of inheriting the Phoenix legacy are much greater.

"Since you have agreed, let's discuss this Phoenix inheritance in detail."

……

The lower reaches of the vast river run through the entire boundless forest.

A golden word "Forbidden" shone brightly, illuminating the ten directions and nine realms, and vibrated. A force that wanted to force its way down from the void and open up a complete small world was forcibly blocked.

Looking at the golden light gradually extinguishing in his palm, Song Baiyi frowned slightly:

“As expected of the Phoenix clan’s unique magic, it can even completely suppress the small world’s magic.

This is just the great power emanating from the Phoenix inheritance.

It is hard to imagine how terrifying the Phoenix would be if it were still alive.

It is truly an existence that can rival the True Dragon Clan."

After dissipating the golden light on his hand, Song Baiyi lowered his eyes to look at the gradually fading halo around his feet. The tiny "ban" characters that could not be seen by the naked eye were constantly annihilating the great power in the halo and causing it to dissipate.

“My Earth-Splitting Divine Circle can only hold out for a quarter of an hour at most.

By then, you and I will be exposed again. In ten breaths at most, the golden-winged roc will definitely catch up with us again. You must be prepared early."

Song Baiyi gently pressed the wound on his left arm, his expression normal, but under the wound, there was an edge with red-gold divine light flowing, causing a bloody wound that could not heal for a long time.

This was scratched by the golden-winged Roc.

According to the Golden-Winged Roc's ability, it was impossible to hurt him. Even if he was hurt, he could recover in a moment.

However, this golden-winged Roc raised a divine light that was as thin as a silk thread and glowed with red-gold luster.

With one strike, his soul and body were torn apart.

Moreover, the wound left behind could not heal for a long time, and it continued to emit an extremely fierce force that burned the flesh and blood, corroding inwards.

"A quarter of an hour will be enough."

Sitting cross-legged beside Song Baiyi, Yuehai Zhenzun had his eyes tightly closed, his palms clasped together with a plain brocade bag. At this moment, a series of light blue spiritual auras were surrounding the brocade bag, and a golden fairy was slowly opening at the top of the brocade bag.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The face of Master Yue Hai turned pale, the divine ban of Feng Chao was too overbearing, it sealed off all the Dao and Law within the coverage area.

Even a top Taoist master as powerful as Hu Tianzong had all his skills and methods sealed in an instant.

Only the True Spirit can struggle to break free from some of the restrictions.

But if you use your cultivation force by force, it will be very difficult.

As the quarter of an hour was about to pass, Yue Hai Zhen Zun suddenly let out a long sigh, opened his eyes, and revealed a hint of joy.

"It's done."

As soon as she finished speaking, the plain brocade bag in her hand began to emit a red-gold halo. As the halo went out, a plain, palm-sized wooden bowl appeared in Yuehai Zhenzun's hand.

"Ok?"

His eyes moved, and Song Baiyi lowered his eyes to look at the small bowl, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised.

"Wutong? You come prepared."

“This Phoenix inheritance is no different from others. Even for a True Spirit Master like you and me, there is a danger of falling.

Do more preparation to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Holding the wooden bowl made from the legendary sacred Wutong tree, Yuehai Zhenzun slightly urged it.

The wooden bowl, which was originally plain and not much different from the bowls used by ordinary people in the world, suddenly became shining with a divine light, as if it was made of pure gold, and flowing on its surface was a pattern like that of an ancient divine bird.

In the reflection of the light from the paulownia wood bowl, the red-gold divine light that lingered in the wound on Song Baiyi's left arm and kept eroding inward was immediately absorbed into the wooden bowl and turned into a thin golden thread that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

“That’s it… This is the key to entering the Phoenix Emperor inheritance!

Phoenix blood! "

Seeing the phoenix blood in the Wutong Divine Bowl, which was thinner than a hair, Master Yuehai's eyes lit up with brilliance.

At this time, the earth-opening divine circle set up by Song Baiyi also disappeared.

The huge and boundless black shadow appeared above their heads almost at the moment the divine circle disappeared, and its golden pupils looked down from above, overlooking everything.

But when the Golden-Winged Dapeng that was chasing after him saw the wooden bowl in Yuehai Zhenzun's hand, his cold and indifferent eyes suddenly showed a strange color.

The next moment!

The divine bird flapped its wings and disappeared again under the gaze of Yuehai Zhenzun and Song Baiyi.

……
