Chapter 868: Ancestor of the Phoenix?
TL: BluVerse
This hundred-thousand-year soul beast was indeed powerful. Even though it fell into the black hole, the silver light bursting out of its body was somewhat similar to the effect of the previous Dragon G.o.d scale of Lan Xuanyu, actually helping to heal the s.p.a.ce.
But how could Lan Xuanyu let such an opportunity slip by? The Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd swept out, and the spear blade immediately slashed the body of the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird.
Its indestructible nature erupted, and the scales on the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird’s body instantly burst into strong light, but it still couldn’t stop the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, which cut directly into its body.
The entire Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd suddenly turned into a l.u.s.trous blue crystal, while the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird turned into a huge blue ball of light in an instant. It relied on its own strong power to resist the devouring of the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd.
So powerful!
This was the first time Lan Xuanyu had ever seen a creature that could confront the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd. Unfortunately, it was still the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd after all. The Blue Demon Bird only managed to hold on for a moment before its blue light ball turned into silver and exploded with a loud bang, turning into streams of silver light that were sucked into the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd.
“Master, give them all to me,” the Treasure Seeking Beast suddenly growled. It flew into Lan Xuanyu’s forehead.
Its voice was filled with urgency. Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred. Through the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, he had already absorbed all the energy that the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird had transformed into, including its life essence. After importing it into his body, he didn’t keep it for himself but let it go automatically.
The Treasure Seeking Beast quickly gathered all the energy of the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird without any hesitation. Lan Xuanyu could no longer feel the presence of this energy.
It wasn’t until now that Lan Xuanyu breathed a sigh of relief. It was really too dangerous just now. From the previous confrontation, it was evident that even in a state of mental distraction, the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird still demonstrated its strong power when facing the Dragon G.o.d Transformation and the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd. Without the push from the Treasure Seeking Beast, it was difficult to say who would have won.
Moreover, during the previous s.p.a.ce blockade, Lan Xuanyu didn’t have time to use the Dragon G.o.d Transformation at all. If he had been hit by the attack formed by the countless dimensional slashes that the Treasure Seeking Beast had just performed, he would have had a hard time surviving.
Lan Xuanyu clearly felt that the most important reason he was able to kill the Blue Demon Bird was not because of himself, but because of the Golden-Patterned Blue Demon Bird that the Treasure Seeking Beast had transformed into. As soon as the Golden-Patterned Blue Demon Bird appeared, the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird’s mood immediately changed.
Lan Xuanyu landed on the ground, retracted the Dragon G.o.d Transformation, and couldn’t help but breathe heavily.
“What’s going on, Little Trea! I’ve never heard of this soul beast before. Its s.p.a.ce attribute ability is so terrifying,” exclaimed Lan Xuanyu in shock.
It took a full minute before the voice of the Treasure Seeking Beast rang in his mind. “Master, you’re really lucky. We actually encountered the Blue Demon Bird, which is really incredible. If I’m not mistaken, it’s not a soul beast that originally existed in the Star Dou Forest. Because it’s impossible for a Blue Demon Bird to be born in the Douluo Continent.”
Lan Xuanyu asked curiously, “Then what kind of soul beast is it? What are its characteristics? You seem to hold it in high regard!”
Treasure Seeking Beast said, “The Blue Demon Bird, also known as the s.p.a.ce Messenger, was the guardian of all s.p.a.ce elements and had a strong affinity for them. To be precise, it was not a Soul Beast at all but rather a divine beast. It was originally one of the powerful divine beasts that existed in the Divine Realm. Just now, this Blue Demon Bird only had one-tenth of the true power of a divine-level Blue Demon Bird. But it was a pure-blooded Blue Demon Bird. If I’m not mistaken, there was a Soul Beast in the Star Dou Forest that had the bloodline of the Blue Demon Bird. After being mirrored, it was influenced by the aura of the Divine Fragmented Energy, and its bloodline mutated, unexpectedly giving off the true aura of a Blue Demon Bird. In this world, it must be one of the strongest overlords, and it’s still getting stronger. If it had found the Divine Fragmented Energy and absorbed its power, this world might shatter, and a tru Blue Demon Bird might have appeared in our world.”
Lan Xuanyu said, “What just happened? It seemed like after it saw you transform into the Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Bird, it became particularly attached to you and lost its will to fight, allowing us to successfully defeat it.”
The Treasure Seeking Beast said, “Because I know it well enough, I understand what it desires most. There are two types of Blue Demon Birds: the s.p.a.ce Messenger and the Time Messenger. The Gold-Patterned Blue Demon Bird I just transformed into is the Time Messenger. They are a pair. However, s.p.a.ce and Time Blue Demon Birds hardly ever exist at the same time, as they control the two most powerful attributes. Once they appear simultaneously, a powerful descendant might be born. You must have heard of their descendant, which is the Phoenix! The real Phoenix.”
“What?” Lan Xuanyu exclaimed in shock. He never thought that the Silver-Patterned Blue Demon Bird he had just killed would be of the same kind as the ancestor of the Phoenix.
The Treasure Seeking Beast said, “Its descendant would be the Phoenix. And it is possible for such an existence to ascend to a Phoenix G.o.d, a true Phoenix that existed on the same level as the Dragon G.o.d. The Time Blue Demon Bird was like a male, while the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird was like a female. It is extremely rare for them to exist at the same time. The former Phoenix G.o.d was actually killed by the Dragon G.o.d, which is why I know so much about it. That battle was also a dark day in the divine realm. There was not even a human G.o.d at that time. It was precisely because of that battle that the Dragon G.o.d was also seriously injured, and later there was a chance for humans to become G.o.ds. Although the Phoenix G.o.d died, the Blue Demon Bird appeared again, and the Dragon G.o.d killed them all, never allowing any Phoenix G.o.d to be born again.”
“So when the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird just saw the Time Blue Demon Bird appear, its excitement can be imagined. Although it was not a true G.o.d-rank Blue Demon Bird, the desire to produce offspring with the Time Blue Demon Bird was deeply rooted. It prepared for pregnancy in an instant, ready to copulate with the Time Blue Demon Bird. Once the copulation is successful, it is possible to conceive a true Phoenix. And they, as a couple, will become the nourishment for the birth of the true Phoenix. At the moment the child is born, they will be swallowed and absorbed.”
“The Dragon G.o.d controls the nine major elemental attributes and an incredibly powerful physique. The ability controlled by the Phoenix G.o.d is called Creation, which is a very terrifying ability. It can simulate any existing ability. Now when I think back to the battle between the two G.o.d-kings back then, it still makes me dizzy and fascinated!”
Listening to the Treasure Seeking Beast’s explanation filled with memories, Lan Xuanyu finally understood the whole story. “So, the reason the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird couldn’t exert its strength just now was that it used its power to conceive, right?” he asked curiously.
“Yes, that’s right. That’s why I asked you to devour its power. I could feel a faint immortal aura and, more importantly, the bloodline of the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird in its body. My ability is to transform and simulate, and with the power of that bloodline and a trace of immortal aura, I can have a fixed form of transformation. Once I absorb them all, I can become the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird and possess its certain abilities. I won’t be completely incapable of fighting anymore. As for how much I can gain, I don’t know. But the Blue Demon Bird was indeed once a top-tier divine beast! If I could restore my divinity, I would be willing to leave my current body and truly inherit its bloodline, becoming a Blue Demon Bird myself.”
Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but smile and said, “So, the reason the s.p.a.ce Blue Demon Bird couldn’t exert its strength just now was that it used its power to conceive. Aren’t you afraid that I might kill you after you transform into a Blue Demon Bird, just like how Dragon G.o.d annihilated it in the past?”
Dont worry, dont worry. I am your obedient servant! Moreover, it is still unknown whether I can absorb to that level, it is still a very distant thing. The Treasure Seeking Beast said with a smile.
