At the celebration banquet, the four great elders expressed their gratitude to Yang Qi one after another. Yang Qi brought out six portions of Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source, which completely resolved the crisis of the Phoenix Clan. The price they paid was extremely small, so they were naturally happy.
Only Feng Xi on the side had a slightly complicated expression. If the Great Elder and others knew that Yang Qi obtained a trace of the origin in the Phoenix Blood Pool, they would probably not think so. In fact, the price they paid was no lower than the conditions set by the Demon Emperor!
"Yang Qi, you have been in the holy land for thirty-six days. Are you really okay?" Feng Yan looked at Yang Qi with some concern.
The death energy of the holy land will constantly corrode the practitioners of the Martial King Realm. Under normal circumstances, an ordinary Martial King Realm cultivator cannot even last for thirty days, but Yang Qi stayed for a full thirty-six days, which is the time it is said that a Martial King Realm cultivator will die.
Following Feng Yan's words, Feng Xi and the other four all looked at Yang Qi.
“The Black Phoenix Flame on my body can just restrain the death energy. The death energy has almost no effect on me. Not to mention thirty-six days, even thirty-six years will be no problem.” Yang Qi said with a calm smile.
I see!
After hearing Yang Qi's explanation, everyone's doubts were resolved. No wonder Yang Qi was able to stay in the holy land for thirty-six days and come out alive, because the death energy had no effect on him at all. It was also because of this that Yang Qi was able to bring out six portions of Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source.
Recalling the horror of that figure, Yang Qi said with a look of fear, "But the reason why I was able to obtain six portions of Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source was for other reasons. If it weren't for my good luck, I might have perished in the Holy Land this time."
Um
As soon as these words were spoken, Feng Yan and the others' expressions suddenly changed, and they looked at Yang Qi with some confusion.
"There is a special monster in the holy land. The monster's strength is terrifying..." Yang Qi said in a deep voice.
"impossible."
As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Great Elder, "The Holy Land is the cemetery of our clan's strong men. There is no way there can be any living thing there!"
No one knows how many years the Phoenix Clan’s Holy Land has existed. If there were any living creatures there, how could the Phoenix Clan not know about it? They didn’t know about it, but Yang Qi encountered it
Could it be that Yang Qi obtained six portions of Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source and felt that the reward given by the Phoenix Clan before was too low, so he wanted to offer other conditions again
Thinking of this possibility, the faces of several elders headed by the Great Elder suddenly became ugly. The agreement between the two parties had been made long ago. Although they were very grateful that Yang Qi brought out six portions of Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source, it did not mean that they were willing to pay more. After all, the Phoenix Clan was in a weak period now, and the clan's foundation had to be kept to cultivate strong people, and it was impossible to give it away!
Although Feng Yan and Feng Xi did not doubt that Yang Qi wanted to continue to make conditions, they were still skeptical about the existence of living things in the holy land!
“To be precise, that monster is not a living thing.” Yang Qi glanced at the Great Elder and continued, “That monster is the consciousness formed by the residual souls of your Phoenix Clan’s strong men after their death. These consciousnesses used the Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source, and the dead energy as their bodies to form a special monster.”
Remnant soul? Consciousness
Hearing Yang Qi's words, Feng Yan and the others couldn't help but shudder slightly. They couldn't believe what Yang Qi said, but Yang Qi's words were so sure and what he said seemed to have a great chance of coming true, which made them believe it.
The Great Elder looked at Yang Qi and asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any evidence?"
"No, the monster has been killed. I placed all the remaining Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source near the formation I left. If you want to verify it, it will probably take another 100,000 years." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
The formation that leaves the holy land can only be opened once every 100,000 years. At other times, you can only enter but not exit. Only those who are at the Martial Emperor level can enter and exit freely with the help of the command talisman. If the Phoenix Clan wants to verify the truth of what Yang Qi said, they must either give birth to their own Martial Emperor level or wait 100,000 years.
Yang Qi glanced at the Great Elder and said calmly, "I mentioned this only to tell you that if you don't find a solution, such a monster may form in the special environment of the Holy Land. As for whether you believe it or not, that is your own business."
"I believe it."
As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, Feng Yan on the side said solemnly.
Following Feng Yan's words, Feng Xi and the others nodded slightly. They thought Yang Qi wanted to use the Phoenix Essence and Phoenix Source he brought out to make conditions again, but Yang Qi did not do so. In this way, Yang Qi's words were undoubtedly more credible. After all, Yang Qi had no need to lie to them, and this matter could be verified in 100,000 years. 100,000 years might only be a long time for human cultivators who reached the Martial Emperor Realm, but it was nothing for the Phoenix Clan. Any Phoenix Clan member at the Martial King Realm could live for hundreds of thousands of years.
"Then how did you survive?" Feng Yan looked at Yang Qi with some curiosity.
It is unknown how many years the Phoenix Holy Land has existed, and all those who have fallen there are powerful warriors above the high-level Martial King level. Even the residual souls of these warriors after their deaths, with the help of death energy, have strength at least close to the Martial Emperor level, but Yang Qi is only at the limit of a two-star Martial King.
"The breath of the Ancestral Phoenix." Yang Qi said with a calm smile.
The breath of the ancestral phoenix
Hearing Yang Qi's words, everyone was stunned at first, and then they understood. The blood of the Ancestral Phoenix surpassed that of the Phoenix Clan. With this kind of suppression of the source of the blood, it was indeed not difficult to deal with those residual souls.
However, everyone still thought the matter was too simple. Facing the monster, Yang Qi almost died. It can be said that he was very lucky to survive.
After the celebration banquet, Yang Qi stayed in the Phoenix Clan’s territory for some time. His cultivation also broke through to the three-star Martial King level. After the breakthrough, he said goodbye to Feng Yan and prepared to return to the Cangkong Star Domain.
Feng Yan moved her hands and handed a heritage crystal to Yang Qi, then she said, "This is the method you need to cultivate your Taotie body to the Martial King realm. It was originally just a method for cultivating mutant physiques. Later, I took the initiative to trade with the Taotie clan. Through their clan leaders, combined with the complete Taotie body, I left some relevant insights."
"Thank you very much."
Yang Qi was grateful. Originally, when he completed the agreement between the two parties, the Phoenix Clan should have given him the inheritance crystal. However, Feng Yan told him at that time that he should wait for a while and he could get a more complete method of cultivation.
It was during this period that the Phoenix Clan once again traded with the Taotie Clan, and gained some insights from the Taotie Clan on the Taotie body. With the insights of the Taotie Clan, the value of this practice method was undoubtedly greater. In other words, it was impossible for other races to obtain such inheritance from the Taotie Clan, as the Phoenix Clan had to come forward.
Looking at Yang Qi who was about to leave, Feng Yan suddenly said, "If you are free, you can come to visit my Feng clan again."
Yang Qi was startled, then nodded, and moved, turning into a stream of light, flying towards the starry sky, and in a flash, he disappeared from the Phoenix Clan. (To be continued)
