Translator: 549690339 —
Inside the palace.
More and more flames gushed out of the firebird’s body, and within the fire cloud, the phantom of the fire phoenix let out a crisp cry.
Immediately, endless, bright-red flames rained down like a torrent. Attacking Lu Xuan and the others in the palace.
The handsome young man’s sword peacock suddenly opened in his hands, dozens of sharp flying swords shot out in a fan formation. The endless sword intent is continuous, as perfect as a dripping stalactite, cutting all approaching flames into nothingness.
Behind the graceful woman, the chilly crescent moon slowly rotated, a frosty spiritual energy shield enveloped her, filled with cold, it isolated all oncoming fiery flames.
The ordinary-looking young man held a huge black sword in his hands. A mysterious black light rose from the sword, continuously devouring the falling red flames from the sky.
The Sword of Wind and Thunder Pellet within Lu Xuan’s Dantian rotated rapidly. Numerous tiny black sword intents surged out, gathering into a whirlwind. With him at its core, it continually rotated. As soon as the flames fell into it, they would be instantly ground to pieces by countless sword intents. After fending off the initial flame attack, the three of them each used their means, attacking the many firebirds fluttering about frantically.
From time to time, firebirds exploded, turning into tiny flames.
After clearing out some of the firebirds, the three of them free their hands, flying towards the fire cloud.
Within the fire cloud, the phantom of the fire phoenix danced faster and faster, and the hidden charred wood exuded dark golden light.
Suddenly, the fire phoenix merged into one, transforming into a giant firebird that was several tens of feet long, and its wings covered most of the palace’s roof.
With a slight flap of its wings, several dark golden spears, ablaze with crimson flames, fell swiftly from the sky.
A fist-sized, milky white bead flew out from the storage bag of the handsome young man, spinning rapidly. The cold instantly extended to a distance of ten meters.
The spears fell into the cold region, and their speed slowed down significantly. Until they were about to approach the young man, the spear from the head to the tail disintegrated piece by piece.
“Roar-”
A clear and cold dragon’s chant sounded, and a water dragon over ten meters long surged forth from the dignified woman. It shot at the giant firebird in the sky at high speed.
Not far away, a pale giant net dozens of feet long quietly closed up. “Looks like these three senior brothers and sisters came prepared.” Whether it’s the bead, water dragon, or the giant net, they all contain rich water spiritual power, and they have a significant restraining effect on the fire phoenix’s phantom. Add to their tacit cooperation, it is estimated that they will soon be able to press down on that phoenix phantom.”
Lu Xuan carefully observed the situation on the scene while resisting the invasion of flames with the small hurricane formed by the Edge Sword of Wind and Thunder.
“How can I get that piece of Divine Burned Wood?”
He was silently thinking about countermeasures.
Two Foundation Establishment Mid-term, one Foundation Establishment First-term stage people were fully prepared and attacked together. Even if the Divine Burned Wood had the advantage of home turf, it gradually lost.
“Chirp…”
The cry sounded, the giant firebird turned into flames scattered in the sky, a pair of phoenix phantoms shot out from it, and drilled into the charred wood in the fire cloud.
The heavy fire cloud also has a tendency to collapse.
“Now is the moment!”
Lu Xuan suppressed the excitement in his heart and turned into a floating light, flying toward the position of the Divine Burned Wood.
The other three also reacted swiftly. The handsome young man made a hand seal, and a huge imaginary hand grasped at the charred wood.
The elegant lady’s dress flutters, and a white long ribbon instantly arrives in front of the charred wood.
Lu Xuan was after all weaker in cultivation level, just as the illusory palm and the long ribbon were about to grab the charred wood, a sudden inspiration struck. The light blue light cluster in his Dantian started to rotate at its maximum speed, a thick green light spread over his body.
The Qingmu Origin Energy was a great tonic for Spirit Plants and had a natural affinity towards them.
Since this piece of charred wood was a high-grade special spirit species, it was very likely to be attracted by the Qingmu Origin Energy.
Just as anticipated, the Charred Wood, which was still struggling, felt the rich spiritual energy from the plants and woods beneath Lu Xuan. A layer of dark golden light immediately surged on its surface, its speed increased by several times in an instant, it broke out from the encirclement of the handsome young man and the elegant woman, pierced through the giant net, and landed in Lu Xuan’s hand.
It was only then that Lu Xuan had the opportunity to observe the charred wood in his hand up close.
The Charred Wood was over one foot long and about three inches wide, with many tiny dark gold cracks on the surface, like traces formed after being burned by a fire.
In the central area, countless tiny cracks formed a dark golden pattern, which was very similar to the dark golden giant firebird just now, with wings spread out, in a soaring posture.
Feeling the strong Qingmu Origin Energy from Lu Xuan, the dark golden pattern’s spiritual light flowed, as if there were slight changes, it looked lifelike and seemed ready to jump out.
“Junior Brother Lu, could you give me this piece of charred wood?”
“It is my main goal to enter the Langyue Blessed Land this time, and it is very useful for me. If Junior Brother could part with it, I will definitely pay a satisfying reward.”
The handsome cultivator landed gracefully in front of Lu Xuan and spoke softly.
He appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was bleeding.
He had prepared for so long, put in so much effort, and three of them had teamed up, thinking it was a sure thing to get that piece of Phoenix Wood, but unexpectedly, it suddenly fell into Lu Xuan’s hands.
If it was a competition for ownership using legitimate means, it would be fine, but the charred wood actively threw itself into his arms, and in the end, Lu Xuan, who only had the cultivation level of the early stage of Foundation Establishment, got it.
How could he bear it, just maintaining his current attitude was a sign of remarkable self-control.
“Senior Brother, you want this piece of pitch-black wood? If it were normal circumstances, I wouldn’t mind.”
Lu Xuan turned the Charred Wood in his hand, changing his tone.
“But this piece of Charred Wood suddenly fell into my hands, which means we have a profound fate. If I were to give it away, it would be against heaven’s will.”
“Moreover, it’s just a piece of Charred Wood, there are many high-grade spirit ores and fire spirit essences in this palace, Senior Brother can focus on them.” He said indifferently.
The Charred Wood could let the Fifth Rank Demonic Vine sense it from such a distance and it is naturally not ordinary, Lu Xuan casually found a reason to reject the handsome young man.
So, Junior Brother Lu, how about I exchange a rare third-grade Flying Sword for the charred wood in your hand?”
The young man took out a golden long sword from his storage bag and spoke somewhat impatiently.
Not far away, the elegant woman and the ordinary young man quietly gathered around, standing on either side of the handsome young man, showing a tendency to surround Lu Xuan.
“I’m sorry, Senior Brother, I’m not interested in anything else, except for Spirit Plants. This piece of Charred Wood makes me very curious and I will not exchange it for any other treasures.”
Seeing this, Lu Xuan took a step back and said firmly.
Junior Brother Lu, all three of us are direct disciples of a certain Golden Core
Real Person within the sect. You have just advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm not long ago, are you sure you want to have unpleasant dealings with us?”
The elegant woman said coldly.
Senior sister, are you threatening me?”
Lu Xuan subtly sped up the rotation of the black sword energy around his body in response.
