Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

hold head high--

The vast and majestic dragon roar shook and surged, stirring up a huge gust of wind. Qi Xiu stood tall and straight, with his dragon eyes shining, quietly staring at the two ancient ferocious birds opposite him.

The complete explosion of dragon energy was like a tsunami, shaking the whole area!

Faintly, the Peacock and the Golden-Winged Roc seemed to see a real green-scaled dragon looking down at them from above, with dragon eyes that were cold, vast and majestic, pressing down on them.

It seemed as if it would be crushed to death in the next second.

The True Dragon clan is the master of all worlds and the protagonist of heaven and earth.

Even though Qi Xiu only had 60% of his bloodline, he had the mark of a purebred dragon in his body. Combined with dragon blood, he was almost the same as a real dragon.

The peacock and the golden-winged Roc are also ancient mythical birds and ferocious birds with ancient bloodlines.

But compared with the true dragon clan, it is far inferior and far from enough.

At this moment, Qi Xiu had completely revived the true dragon blood in his body, and under the shocking power of the supreme dragon, the two divine birds and ferocious beasts immediately changed their expressions.

His eyes moved slightly, his mind turned, and Peacock suddenly smiled. The cold and ferocious aura on his body suddenly subsided, and he revealed a "kind" smile at the corners of his mouth.

"It's just a misunderstanding, Taoist Priest, please don't worry about it.

You and I are now grasshoppers tied to the same rope, so how can we abandon the donkey after it has done its work?

I just want to use the phoenix blood to open the phoenix nest. This is the secret technique of my clan and cannot be passed on to the Taoist priest.

So please forgive me, Taoist priest."

As he spoke, the peacock winked at the golden-winged Roc beside him. Although the latter was ready to make a move, he knew that now was not the time to be willful. He snorted coldly, put away his murderous intent, and retreated to the side indifferently.

But those eyes that were gleaming golden still glanced towards Qi Xiu vaguely.

"So that's how it is. I was just being overly suspicious."

Knowing in his heart that it was not yet the time to confront these two ancient ferocious birds, Qi Xiu laughed, and the tremendous dragon power instantly retracted into his body.

It seemed as if the tense atmosphere just now was just an illusion.

"There is no time to lose. Those two Yuanshen Zhenzun may have almost collected enough phoenix blood. We need to set off quickly and rush to the Phoenix Nest first.

Otherwise, if we let them take away the Phoenix Relics first, all our efforts would be in vain."

The three of them nodded, and they clearly understood what was more important than what was less important, and set off again, heading towards the Phoenix Nest that contained the inheritance of the Phoenix Emperor.

...

"It's done."

In a phoenix wood bowl the size of a sea bowl, a phoenix blood that was slightly smaller than the one in Qi Xiu's hand lay quietly in the bowl, flowing with boundless divine light. Yue Hai Zhen Zun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a strange light flashed in his beautiful eyes.

In this way, one is one step closer to the Phoenix inheritance.

"You are so familiar with all the things related to this inheritance. It seems that you have done a lot of homework a long time ago."

After taking a quick glance at Yuehai Zhenzun, Song Baiyi slowly twisted a string of emerald Buddhist beads. Inside each bead, there was a shadowy image of a Buddha sitting cross-legged, chanting scriptures. Sanskrit sounds lingered, Buddha's light flowed, and there was a hint of distant sandalwood scent.

This treasure can manifest strange visions outside of this Phoenix Nest.

It is indeed a precious treasure of Buddhism.

"Protector General, you are joking. You are also aware of my situation. This inheritance is a chance of survival for me in desperate situations, so I must pay more attention to it." As he put away the paulownia wood bowl, a hint of worry flashed across Yue Hai Zhen Zun's eyes.

The true Yuanshen lives as long as heaven and earth.

Originally, it was free and at ease, detached and following the flow of one's heart.

Because of her old illness, she was so worried that she even sat on the cliff of Wangchuan Sea for a thousand years to plan the overall situation.

This trace of worry is not only what An Song Baiyi is feeling, but also a reflection of his true nature.

"So, I hope the governor will not break his promise to me."

“What I said is true. As long as the Phoenix inheritance is real, I will contact the Imperial Medical Bureau immediately to treat your hidden injuries.

Your injury is nothing to the Imperial Medical Bureau." Waving his hand, Song Baiyi looked calm.

Injuries that Yue Hai Zhen Zun had been trying to heal for a thousand years were very common in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

"Thank you very much, Protector-General."

With Song Baiyi's assurance, Yue Hai Zhenzun's expression relaxed slightly and he felt relieved.

Although this Song Duhu was cold and unromantic, he was as stubborn and hard as a rock.

But he is definitely not the kind of person who breaks his word and gets rich.

With him here, she would definitely not be able to take away the Phoenix inheritance, but as long as she could heal the old injuries in her body, her goal would be achieved.

"Move faster, I can't stay away from the ancient city for long."

"The phoenix blood is enough. Now we just need to go to the phoenix nest and take the inheritance from it." Yue Hai Zhenzun nodded lightly.

However, although this was said lightly, it seemed as if the Phoenix inheritance was already within reach.

In fact, she had no idea whether she would encounter them again after entering the Phoenix Nest.

After all, many details of the Phoenix inheritance were obtained from a long-lost stone tablet in a small world outside the domain.

She couldn't verify how much of it was true or false.

Fortunately, at present, the contents on the stone tablet are still true.

But what would happen after entering the Phoenix Nest? This part of the content had been lost and difficult to retrieve, so she had no idea.

Of course, this situation must not be told to Song Baiyi.

Now we can only take one step at a time and see what happens.

...

Almost at the same time, the two groups rushed towards the Phoenix Nest together, trying to take away the Phoenix Emperor's inheritance before the other.

Deep in the boundless and majestic forest.

The closer you get to the center, the taller and taller the trees grow, supporting the sky and the earth. An extremely rich vitality is brewing in them, like sleeping ancient gods and demons.

The quiet and heavy wood color exudes solemnity.

"Go further and you will find the Phoenix Nest."

The peacock folded its wings and transformed into a human form. It stood on a giant tree with a boundless crown together with Qi Xiu and the golden-winged Roc, gazing into the distance.

Half of the sky is dazzling red.

Billions of divine rays rolling with red clouds are gushing out and transforming into wheels of supreme halos. The misty sea of ​​clouds is rising first, as if a fairyland is standing here.

In the center of all these strange visions, an ancient tree of normal size, as if cast in bronze and with a heavy Taoist charm, stands on the fairyland. On its nine branches, there is a cave in heaven. Inside, the walls of the universe are intertwined with cosmic light, and the textures of the avenues are blended, evolving into layers of world brilliance that hangs down.

"This is... the sacred Wutong tree."

Looking at this ancient sacred tree, Qi Xiu was slightly moved.

As the old saying goes, "The phoenix will not roost except on the Chinese parasol tree, and will not eat except on the green bamboo."

This sacred Wutong tree has been the only phoenix nest in the world since ancient times, and the Phoenix clan of all generations have lived here.

The sacred tree has been blessed and imbued with the boundless vitality of generations of the Phoenix clan, and has even transcended the boundaries of life and death, becoming one of the very few beings in the world that can live forever.

Regardless of the Phoenix inheritance, even this sacred tree is the most supreme divine object in the world.

"The Phoenix Nest is on this sacred tree. You must follow my instructions and do not move rashly.

This sacred tree is already alive and very ancient.

If you disturb its resurrection, you will be killed even if you are a true spirit."

Looking at the sacred Wutong tree, the Peacock Great Sage's eyes revealed a bit of solemnity.

Although he is the guardian of this place, he cannot approach the Phoenix Nest at will, otherwise he will be killed.

"Master, give me the phoenix blood."

After taking a glance at the solemn expression of the Peacock Great Sage, Qi Xiu took out the red-gold gem made of phoenix blood.

It has come to this point, there is no way this vicious bird can cause trouble again.

Unless he really wants to be captured by two Yuanshen Zhenzuns and used as a mount.

After taking the phoenix blood, the Peacock Great Sage took a deep breath, and an ancient divine pattern lit up between his brows. The next moment, he split the phoenix blood bead in his hand into three parts and opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of red-gold fairy mist.

After spitting out this mouthful of scarlet-gold fairy mist, a hint of pain flashed across the peacock's eyes. It was obvious that this mist was very unusual, and even he, an ancient divine bird, cherished it very much.

As the fog rolled and surged, the sound of phoenixes could be heard continuously, causing the heaven and earth to shake.

The three balls of phoenix blood sometimes condensed and sometimes dispersed.

Finally, it turned into a red light and sank into the left arms of the three people.

He lowered his eyes to look at the vague shadow of a divine bird that appeared on his left forearm. It was very similar to the one on the precious leaf of the phoenix tree. Before Qi Xiu could ask, he saw the tired-looking Peacock hurriedly urging him:

"Come on!"

After saying that, he took the lead and jumped off the giant tree. After landing, he strode forward.

“When you get close to Phoenix Nest, you have to walk.

We must enter the Phoenix Nest before the Phoenix Blood Mark disappears.

Otherwise, the paulownia tree would notice it.

Ten lives wouldn't be enough for this old guy."

Since it was a matter of life and death, the Peacock Sage didn't waste any time and quickly pointed out the pros and cons.

By this time, the three of them were already on a pirate ship.

Fortunately, although this place is far from the Phoenix Nest, the three of them are not ordinary people.

A real dragon and two ancient ferocious birds.

Even when walking, the speed is extremely fast.

He took a step forward and moved to the end of his sight, stirring up endless wind and waves, like a flying rainbow, breaking through the air and rapidly approaching the sacred tree!

"Here we come, be careful!"

Halfway through the journey, the Peacock Sage suddenly spoke up to remind them.

Before he finished speaking, Qi Xiu suddenly felt an extremely terrifying feeling, as if a gaze from the ancient times was pressing down heavily on him.

majesty!

ancient!

ruthless!

The gaze filled with all kinds of emotions was like the sky collapsing, and the void visible to the naked eye was crushed, but the strange thing was that the surrounding grass and trees were not damaged at all.

It was as if this gaze was directed only at them!

"It's... that sacred tree."

"good.

We are responsible for guarding the periphery of the heritage site.

The real guardian of the Phoenix Nest is actually this sacred Wutong tree.

If there wasn't this phoenix blood mark.

Anyone, including the True Master Yuanshen, will be suppressed by this sacred tree in an instant.

From the first generation of the Phoenix clan to today.

In addition, there is support and offerings from the Phoenix clan from generation to generation.

This ancient sacred tree is no longer invincible to human power."

Although his tone was solemn, the Peacock Great Sage could not hide his unwillingness in his words.

They are obviously all Phoenix's adopted sons.

But no one recognizes this sacred Wutong tree except the Phoenix.

Anyone who dares to approach will be killed.

His grandfather was seriously injured by this sacred tree and died of depression.

So today...

He must take away the Phoenix inheritance!
