Chapter 581 Obtaining Phoenix Blood Essence
After a long silence, the beautiful woman sighed and said, "I am Feng Nishang, an elder of the Phoenix Clan. The clan leader is currently in seclusion for Nirvana and cannot receive guests for the time being. If you truly have something important to discuss, please tell me, and I can make the decision on your behalf."
Feng Nishang was at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Seeing that Chu Yang had the Phoenix Feather in his hand, she was now mostly convinced.
The current leader of the Phoenix Clan is a member of her generation. If it weren't for the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, they probably wouldn't have had the chance to assume important positions in the Phoenix Clan.
Even so, she is now the only elder left in the Phoenix Clan.
Chu Yang put away the phoenix feather and said sincerely, "I have indeed come here with a request. My cultivation technique is special and requires some blood from the phoenix clan. I wonder if you would be willing to part with it, senior?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the three people behind Feng Nishang immediately erupted in a commotion.
"How dare you! You dare to covet my Phoenix Clan's bloodline!"
The tall woman shouted sternly, her phoenix eyes wide open, as if she were about to spit fire.
The other two men also looked angry. One of them sneered, "An overconfident human, daring to be so greedy!"
Chu Yang's expression darkened slightly. In the current prehistoric world, the human race is indeed very weak. Even the Phoenix Clan, which has only a few members, looks down on the human race.
"If I weren't known as a disciple of a sage, I'm afraid I would be looked down upon in the same way!" Chu Yang sighed inwardly.
Feng Nishang's face darkened. Phoenix blood is so precious, how could it be given away so easily?
This is the very foundation of the Phoenix Clan.
She looked coldly at Chu Yang and said, "The blood of the Phoenix Clan is our clan's most precious treasure. How can we give it away so easily? Even if you are a disciple of a sage, you absolutely cannot."
It is true that the Phoenix Clan has gone into seclusion, but they have also learned about the Sages through certain channels, and know that the most powerful beings in the prehistoric world are these six Sages.
Chu Yang thought to himself that, just as he expected, although the Phoenix Clan had fallen on hard times, their inherent pride remained.
He had anticipated this outcome. Although the Phoenix Clan was now in decline, it was still far superior to the current state of Chu Yang.
However, Chu Yang had anticipated this outcome, so he was not entirely unprepared.
"Senior, I know this is asking the impossible, but I have my own compelling reasons. I am willing to pay any price to obtain some of the Phoenix Clan's blood."
Chu Yang spoke sincerely and adopted a very humble attitude.
The three people behind Feng Nishang remained unmoved, still glaring angrily.
The tall woman sneered, "Any price? What do you have to offer? Do you think your status as a disciple of a saint gives you the right to flaunt your power before my Phoenix Clan?"
Chu Yang was somewhat displeased. This woman was really impolite, but she also had the confidence to be arrogant. Chu Yang looked at her and found that this woman was actually a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Besides the tall woman, the other two also possessed the cultivation level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
"As expected of the Phoenix Clan, even in their decline, they still have so many powerful figures!" Chu Yang thought to himself, but considering his purpose, he had no choice but to hold back for the time being.
Chu Yang remained calm and respectful, saying, "Senior, please calm your anger. I know the preciousness of the Phoenix Clan's blood and would never dare to force it. However, the cultivation technique I practice requires Phoenix blood!"
Seeing that Feng Nishang and the others were unmoved by reason, Chu Yang stopped explaining, simply smiled faintly, took out a jade slip from his sleeve, and handed it over.
"In that case, I will show some sincerity."
The jade slip was fiery red all over, with intricate patterns engraved on it, and faint flames seemed to flow around it, radiating a scorching aura.
The three people behind Feng Nishang initially looked disdainful, but when the jade slip appeared, their eyes were involuntarily drawn to it.
"What is this?" Feng Nishang asked, taking the jade slip with a puzzled expression.
"A secret technique!" Chu Yang smiled slightly and explained, "This secret technique is called 'Ninefold Star Flame,' which contains profound laws and is of great benefit even to Great Luo Golden Immortals."
This "Ninefold Star Flame" was exchanged by Chu Yang from Devouring Chu Yang. It is a peak secret technique of the demon race's universe overlord level in the Devouring Star World!
Honghuang Chuyang had also seen it. This secret technique mainly focuses on fire-based laws, which is not very suitable for humans, but since it also belongs to the Phoenix Clan, it is still very attractive.
The Devouring World also has a Phoenix Clan, but it belongs to the Demon Clan, and the most powerful member of the clan is merely the Cosmic Overlord.
This was picked out from the spoils of war by a powerful human who had killed a genius of the demon race, but because humans are not suited for cultivation, it has been kept in the secret archives.
The three people behind Feng Nishang had different expressions upon hearing this.
The tall woman couldn't help but speak up, "Elder Ni Chang, let me see!"
Feng Nishang hesitated for a moment, but still handed the jade slip to her.
The tall woman eagerly probed into it with her divine sense. A moment later, her expression changed drastically. A look of shock flashed in her eyes, which was then replaced by ecstasy and greed.
"What...what a powerful secret technique!" Her voice trembled with excitement as she stared intently at the jade slip, as if trying to integrate it into her soul.
Seeing this, the other two men couldn't suppress their curiosity and stepped forward to find out what was going on.
After reading the jade slip, he, like the tall woman, showed an expression of shock and longing.
One of them couldn't help but exclaim, "This...this is practically a secret technique tailor-made for my Phoenix Clan! If I could cultivate this technique, my bottleneck might just be broken!"
Seeing this, Feng Nishang was also tempted, but she remained somewhat wary and looked at Chu Yang suspiciously, saying, "The value of this secret technique is indeed extraordinary, and it is of great importance to our clan, but are you sure you want to use it to exchange for our clan's blood?"
It's important to know that while the blood of the Phoenix Clan is precious, many powerful beings in the primordial world have collected some!
This secret technique far surpasses the methods she taught to her three juniors, and it greatly enhances the Phoenix Clan. Even she, a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, has a premonition that her strength will increase again after cultivating this technique!
Moreover, if their clan leader obtains this secret technique, his strength is very likely to reach a new level!
Chu Yang smiled and said, "In my opinion, obtaining the phoenix's essence blood is secondary. The most important thing is that I want to make friends with the Phoenix Clan!"
Feng Nishang remained silent for a long time, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the jade slip and the three eager clansmen.
The secret techniques on this jade slip were like a long-awaited rain to her Phoenix Clan, far exceeding the value of the cultivation techniques she had previously given to her descendants.
In particular, she keenly realized that this secret technique would be of great benefit to herself and even to the clan leader.
"Alas, my Phoenix Clan is now dwindling, with fewer than ten members remaining. Each one is a precious gem; how can we casually shed their blood..."
Feng Nishang sighed, seemingly quite helpless, "This essence blood is fundamental to the future path of my people. If it is given to you, their foundation will be damaged..."
Her words were half true and half false, expressing both the preciousness of the phoenix blood essence and implying that Chu Yang's proposed exchange conditions were somewhat excessive.
The tall woman grew anxious and couldn't help but interject, "Elder, this secret technique..."
Feng Nishang raised her hand to interrupt her, then turned her gaze to Chu Yang: "How about this, I can give you a small bottle of essence blood, but you must promise that this matter must never be revealed to anyone."
Chu Yang readily agreed: "Of course, I am not a greedy person, a small bottle will suffice."
Seeing that Chu Yang agreed so easily, Feng Nishang felt a little uneasy. Could there be some hidden danger in this secret technique that she hadn't noticed?
But since things have come to this, she can only take it one step at a time.
"Wait here for a moment," Feng Nishang instructed before turning and returning to her residence.
The three Phoenix Clan juniors followed Feng Nishang's figure until she disappeared through the doorway, then reluctantly turned their gaze back to the fiery red jade slip.
The tall woman couldn't resist reaching out to touch it, but was stopped by a man next to her: "Elder Ni Chang hasn't returned yet, let's wait."
Chu Yang watched quietly from the side, secretly amused. This "Ninefold Star Flame" was a top-tier secret technique of the universe's overlord level in the Devouring Star World, and it was absolutely priceless to the Phoenix Clan.
Before long, Feng Nishang returned, holding a jade bottle about the size of a thumb. She handed it to Chu Yang, saying, "This contains the essence of my clan's blood. Take it."
Chu Yang took the jade bottle. It was warm to the touch, and a surge of life force emanated from it, making him feel a chill.
This essence blood is actually the essence blood of a phoenix at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level! Feng Nishang was actually willing to pay such a price for this secret technique!
Chu Yang opened the jade bottle, and a rich fragrance wafted out. The essence blood was as red as magma, radiating a faint golden light, and the energy contained within was extremely surging.
"This essence blood..." Chu Yang feigned surprise, looking at Feng Nishang: "Could this be...?"
Feng Nishang said calmly, "That's right, this is my own essence blood. You can use it, but remember not to pass it on to anyone else."
Chu Yang quickly thanked her, but in his heart he thought to himself that Feng Nishang was really generous, giving him such precious essence blood.
In fact, Chu Yang only needs the essence blood of ordinary Phoenix Clan members to cultivate the "Nirvana Rebirth Technique," but the higher the grade, the greater the benefit to him.
Chu Yang could even rely on this essence blood to directly break through the bottleneck of the Golden Immortal realm!
Chu Yang thought about it again and realized that Feng Nishang was probably thinking of the younger generation in the clan, which was why she donated her essence blood.
After carefully collecting the essence blood, Chu Yang bid farewell and left the secret realm.
After leaving the secret realm, Chu Yang did not immediately return to the Primordial World. Instead, he found a secluded place, sat cross-legged, and took out the bottle of phoenix essence blood.
Finding a secluded valley, Chu Yang carefully set up multiple layers of restrictions before taking out the jade bottle and jade slip.
Inside the jade bottle, the essence blood resembled a dancing flame, radiating a rich fire-attribute spiritual energy, its surging life force almost breaking free from the jade bottle's restraints.
This aura caused the undying flame within Chu Yang's body to tremble slightly.
"The Phoenix Clan has really gone all out."
Chu Yang clicked his tongue in amazement. He had originally thought that Feng Nishang would just use the essence blood of a junior in the clan to get by, but he did not expect that she would give him such a precious essence blood.
"However, they won't lose out entirely. After obtaining the secret technique 'Nine Heavens Flame,' their clan's strength should increase by a level!"
Chu Yang took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and began to circulate the "Nirvana Rebirth Technique".
This technique is incredibly profound. As soon as it is activated, it resonates with the inextinguishable flame within the body, as if the two were born from the same source.
The energy of the phoenix's essence flowed through his meridians, merging into Chu Yang's limbs and bones, reflecting the undying flame and creating a wondrous scene.
The Phoenix Clan is naturally skilled in the art of fire, which complements the undying flame perfectly.
Chu Yang's body began to undergo drastic changes. His meridians became thicker and stronger, like rushing rivers, and his physical strength was greatly enhanced, as if he were a piece of divine iron that had been forged a thousand times.
As he absorbed more and more essence and blood, Chu Yang felt his body becoming increasingly full of energy, and his cultivation level began to rise rapidly.
The bottleneck of becoming a Golden Immortal was easily broken through, as if it were made of paper. Early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal!
After breaking through, Chu Yang did not stop cultivating, but continued to consolidate his cultivation and familiarize himself with the new power.
He discovered that the "Nirvana Rebirth Technique" not only improved his cultivation level but also granted him some special abilities of the Phoenix Clan, such as controlling flames and rebirth.
With a thought, Chu Yang conjured a crimson flame in his palm, which swirled and danced like a fire dragon.
The temperature of this flame is extremely high, enough to melt metal and stone and burn everything.
Chu Yang slowly finished his practice, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the surging energy within his body gradually calmed down.
At the early stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, the efficacy of this essence blood was even stronger than he had imagined.
Feeling the surge of power within him, Chu Yang smiled.
Feng Nishang of the Phoenix Clan did him a great favor.
It saved him at least a thousand years of cultivation time!
He stood up, stretched his limbs, and crackling sounds emanated from his body, as if he possessed boundless power.
The Nirvana Rebirth Technique was indeed profound; it not only enhanced his cultivation but also granted him some of the special abilities of a phoenix.
With a thought, Chu Yang conjured a ball of crimson flame in his palm, which danced and leaped at his fingertips like a nimble fire snake.
The flames were incredibly hot, scorching and distorting the surrounding air.
This flame no longer resembles an inextinguishable fire; it seems to have gained a touch of domineering power.
"Manipulating flames..."
Chu Yang muttered to himself as he began to try practicing his new ability.
He transformed the flames into various forms, sometimes soaring high like a firebird, sometimes roaring and surging like a fire dragon, and sometimes exploding like a fireball, unleashing astonishing power.
As Chu Yang's practice deepened, his control over the flames became increasingly refined. He could even compress the flames into tiny fire needles, making them even more terrifying.
With a casual wave of his hand, a fire needle shot out, instantly leaving a charred hole in a piece of Gengjin divine iron.
"This power seems to be on a whole new level compared to the Undying Flame I possessed before!" Chu Yang thought to himself with secret delight.
Besides manipulating flames, rebirth is also an extremely powerful ability.
Chu Yang tried to activate this power, feeling the vibrant energy within his body, as if he possessed infinite vitality.
He took out his natal flying sword and made a cut on his arm.
In a short while, the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, the wound was completely healed!
"Is this the power of rebirth?"
Chu Yang was overjoyed. It seemed that he wouldn't have to worry too much about getting injured when fighting others in the future, since this ability granted him extremely strong recovery power.
Several days later, Chu Yang felt that his cultivation had stabilized, so he set off to return to the East Sea.
Before leaving, he erased all traces in the valley, leaving no clues whatsoever.
