Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

The closer you get to this sacred Wutong tree, the more frightening the terrifying majesty it emanates from it becomes.

It was an extremely ancient thing, as if it had witnessed the boundless vastness of ancient and modern times.

Even this sacred tree did not take any action, but just a glance from it caused the sky and earth to change color and the void to tremble.

The phoenix blood marks on the hands of Qi Xiu and the other two also began to flicker, as if they were being slowly consumed.

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

Peacock's expression changed slightly when he noticed the change in the Phoenix Blood Mark on his hand.

I don’t know if it’s because of that Yuanshen Zhenzun.

This time, the Wutong Sacred Tree's level of awakening is obviously higher than before.

This also caused the Phoenix Blood Mark to be consumed faster than he expected.

Hearing the urgency in Peacock's tone, the Golden-Winged Roc beside him simply grabbed him and Qi Xiu.

As his footsteps moved, in the darkness, a phantom of an ancient ferocious bird that seemed to soar ninety thousand miles above the earth flashed by in an instant.

The three figures disappeared from the spot in an instant.

……

"Oh no! Someone got there first!"

Realizing that there was something strange about the red halo blooming from the ancient Wutong tree in the distance, Master Yue Hai gritted his teeth and said, "Not good."

They didn't expect that they had the help of the paulownia wood bowl, but they were still a step behind no matter how hard they tried.

Hurrying to the edge of the center of the forest, Yuehai Zhenzun immediately threw up the phoenix wood bowl in his hand. The phoenix blood in the bowl sparkled, and wisps of blood-like essence halo rose up and slowly seeped into the wooden bowl.

She does not have the phoenix essence in the belly of the Peacock Sage.

It is impossible to transform the phoenix blood into a phoenix blood mark to protect oneself.

But after the phoenix blood in this phoenix wood bowl is fully sublimated, the same effect can be produced.

Under the sacrifice of Yuehai Zhenzun, all the phoenix blood that was collected with great difficulty seeped into the wooden bowl.

The originally wooden bowl also turned into a piece of red gold, with a lifelike, vague shadow of a phoenix floating on it.

"All right."

Taking a deep breath, Yue Hai Zhen Zun's eyes showed a trace of fatigue.

This place is very close to the Phoenix Nest, and the power of the Great Dao Divine Ban has reached its peak.

If it were outside, refining this wooden bowl would be a piece of cake, but when she got here, she felt a hint of fatigue that could not be concealed.

He threw up the paulownia wood bowl in his hand that had been refined, and saw wisps of divine light falling down, and the brilliant glow enveloped Yuehai Zhenzun and Song Baiyi.

“You cannot fly away from where the Wutong tree is.

To enter the Phoenix Nest, you can only walk there, so please keep this in mind." Yue Hai Zhenzun also knew the taboos that needed to be paid attention to when approaching the Wutong Sacred Tree. After reminding Song Baiyi, the two immediately rushed towards the Wutong Sacred Tree.

……

With the help of the golden-winged Roc, Qi Xiu and the other two quickly reached the sacred Wutong tree.

At this time, the Phoenix mark on their hands had become very faint.

Only a vague outline remained, as if it could completely disappear at any time.

"Finally caught up."

Glancing down at the Phoenix Seal on his hand that was about to disappear, the Peacock God's eyes lit up as he glanced at the nine caves hanging on the sacred Wutong tree.

These caves were once the phoenix's nests.

Belonged to the nine former Phoenix Emperors!

Today, the Phoenix clan, like the True Dragon clan, has long been extinct.

All that remains is the Phoenix Nest and the inheritance contained within it.

However, you can't just enter the Phoenix Nest Cave.

Among the nine caves, only one contains the inheritance of the Phoenix Emperor.

That was the legacy left by the last Phoenix Emperor to future generations.

The other eight caves are the final resting places of successive Phoenix Emperors.

Not only is there no inheritance inside, but it is also filled with shocking killing situations and various restrictions set up by the Phoenix Emperor of later generations.

Prevent the bodies of the elders in the clan from being stolen.

If they accidentally walked in, not to mention the three of them.

Even if it is the true soul, it is like throwing a meat bun at a dog, and it will never come back.

"Let me see which one it is..." With his pupils trembling, the Peacock Great Sage scanned the nine caves in front of him with all his strength.

The ancestor of the peacock clan had made great contributions to the phoenix clan, so he was adopted as their son and was also given a breath of phoenix essence.

Most of this essence was consumed by the Great Peacock Sage when he evolved the Phoenix Seal.

He now had to rely on this remaining part to sense which Phoenix Nest Cave Heaven contained the inheritance of the Phoenix Emperor.

His eyes kept scanning the nine phoenix nests one by one, and beads of sweat began to seep out of the forehead of the Peacock Great Sage, this ancient ferocious bird.

There's no way, even for a divine bird like him.

When faced with a true life-and-death situation, one will feel an irrepressible sense of tension and urgency.

Especially this sacred Wutong tree is ruthless and merciless, with no mercy at all. Once it attacks, it uses thunderous means. Considering the realm of the three of them, one strike will definitely destroy their souls.

There is not even a chance to reincarnate and start over.

"Are you done? Why are you taking so long?"

Looking at the Peacock Great Sage who had not moved for a long time, the Golden-Winged Roc paced anxiously, occasionally looking down at the Phoenix mark on the back of his hand.

"Shut your mouth!"

The Peacock King, who was already in a bad mood, was urged by the Golden-Winged Roc and immediately became furious. He turned around and shouted loudly.

"Why doesn't it work..."

After roaring at the Golden-Winged Peng, the Peacock Great Sage’s eyes became even more gloomy.

The Phoenix essence in his body was passed down from generation to generation by his ancestors. Logically speaking, it originated from the essence of the Phoenix itself and must resonate with the Phoenix inheritance.

But from just now until now, he has been constantly urging the Phoenix essence to try to sense the existence of the Phoenix inheritance, but he has always gained nothing.

Seeing that the Phoenix mark on his hand was getting fainter and fainter and was about to disappear completely, the Peacock King became anxious.

If you can't find the correct Phoenix Nest Cave before the mark disappears.

They all must die!

Just as the sweat beads on the Peacock King's forehead were getting more and more, and his eyes were becoming more and more panicked.

Qi Xiu, who had been silent on the side, suddenly stepped forward and pointed his finger at the Phoenix Nest Cave on the third branch of the ancient Wutong tree.

"I think it should be this cave."

Looking at Qi Xiu who suddenly stood up in surprise, the Peacock Great Sage was stunned, but still asked:

"How do you know?"

"Premonition." Qi Xiu quietly put away the precious Wutong leaf that had lost its divine light in his palm. He would certainly not tell the Peacock Great Sage about this rare treasure.

He just said vaguely that this was his genuine feeling.

"Premonition?" The Peacock Great Sage glanced at Qi Xiu suspiciously. Having lived for more than four thousand years, he would not believe Qi Xiu's words.

But now it has come to a critical moment.

He himself couldn't tell which one was the correct Fengchao Cave Heaven.

Then I can only listen to Qi Xiu's advice.

Otherwise, you'll just have to pick one at random.

After weighing the pros and cons, the Peacock Great Sage looked up at Qi Xiu thoughtfully, and then said:

"Okay, then we will believe in the Taoist's premonition."

"Ah?" The golden-winged Roc on the side was stunned when he heard his brother's words, and was about to take over the conversation.

"What? If we delay any longer, the old man will strike us and we will be reduced to ashes."

Knowing that Qi Xiu would not choose his own fatal point, the Peacock Great Sage glanced at the Phoenix Mark on his hand that was about to disappear, and suppressed the Golden Winged Roc who was about to say something.

The man and two birds immediately flew into the sky, transformed into a ray of rainbow light, and sank into the Phoenix Nest Cave on the third branch of the tree.

"They've already gone in."

Just as they stepped out of the boundless sea of ​​forest and arrived at the fairyland where the ancient Wutong tree was, Yuehai Zhenzun and Song Baiyi happened to witness Qi Xiu and the other two turning into rainbows and entering the Phoenix Nest Cave.

"Fortunately, I caught up."

When she saw the nine Phoenix Nest Caves hanging on the ancient Wutong tree, Zhenzun Yuehai showed a hint of relief. She also had no means to identify the cave where the inheritance was located.

If it was a step later, the probability of choosing one out of nine would be very low.

Since they had already seen Qi Xiu and the other two enter the Phoenix Nest before them, Yue Hai Zhenzun and Song Baiyi did not delay any longer and headed straight towards the cave chosen by Qi Xiu and the others.

……

"Baby, why don't you wake up?"

The sound of a huge bell rang in his ears. After entering the Fengchao Cave, Qi Xiu, who had fallen into a drowsy darkness, slowly woke up and a warm light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

This is……

Qi Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the scene around him clearly.

The boundless cold and snow-white sea of ​​flowers stretches endlessly, and the bright golden flowers, dancing with bright light and charm, fall lightly and scatter like a drizzle.

Gold and white interweave into a dreamy scene.

It is like a rare holy land of Yunmeng in the world.

Just as Qi Xiu was looking at the situation he was in, a thin and tall figure wearing a blue and white gown suddenly appeared in front of him.

Following the figure, Qi Xiu subconsciously looked upwards.

A gentle and calm face, like that of a middle-aged scholar, was smiling at him.

"woke up."

Looking at the middle-aged man in a long gown, Qi Xiu subconsciously revived his Dragon Eyes, but his body showed no reaction, and all his cultivation seemed to have disappeared.

This made his expression change slightly.

"Haha, don't be nervous. This is Mengze. You are just a consciousness now. Of course, you can't mobilize the cultivation in your body."

As if noticing Qi Xiu's strange expression, the middle-aged scholar chuckled and waved his right hand. A stone table and two wooden chairs suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​flowers.

"Doll, please."

He raised his hand to signal Qi Xiu to take a seat, and the middle-aged scholar walked to the stone table and sat down first.

They come, the security.

After a brief moment of surprise, Qi Xiu quickly calmed down and sat down calmly and naturally opposite the middle-aged scholar.

Seeing that Qi Xiu adjusted himself so quickly, the middle-aged scholar nodded slightly.

"Yes, your Dao Heart does have some weight."

"Thank you for your praise, senior. I am sorry for trespassing and disturbing you." Qi Xiu raised his hand slightly and apologized sincerely.

The middle-aged scholar raised his eyebrows and revealed a playful smile:

"From what you said, it seems that you know who I am?"

"know."

"Then come and listen."

"Phoenix."

When Qi Xiu said this, a hint of disappointment flashed across the middle-aged scholar's eyes. When he was about to speak, he heard Qi Xiu continue.

"The Phoenix is ​​dead, you are the ancient Wutong tree!"
