Lord of the Earth

[Phoenix Blood Soul Crystal (Jade White)]

【Type】Exotic treasure

[Features] Phoenix Blood (Phoenix blood can greatly enhance a person's vitality, allowing them to recover quickly from injuries)
Longevity (Alien creatures that fuse with the blood of the Phoenix can gain the 'longevity' trait, which can greatly increase their lifespan)

Inheritance (After the fusion of the Phoenix or a person with the Phoenix fate and talent, the inheritance of the Phoenix clan can be obtained from it)

[Explanation] The "crystal" condensed from the remaining power of a fallen mythical beast, the Phoenix, can be used to refine the "Immortality Elixir" or can be passed on to people related to the Phoenix.

This thing is the "rare treasure" that Xia Tian obtained from Emperor Shitian (Xu Fu) after he killed him. It is the blood and soul residue of the phoenix itself.

Xia Tian wanted to use this to test whether this "Phoenix Fire" was really related to the phoenix killed by Xu Fu in the "Fengyun" world!
Judging from its reaction now, some things have been proved.

"I got this item after I killed Xu Fu... If you are willing to submit to me, I can give it to you... Then I can let Lingji cooperate with you to lend you the 'Holy Fire of the Ming Cult' to cleanse your filth and be reborn in Nirvana..."

Xia Tian stared at the "ghost" and spoke seductively.

The "Phoenix Fire" that had been attacking violently and madly slowed down its movements when it saw the item in Xia Tian's hand, and the raging flames in the sky also subsided!

Clang, Clang, Clang!

Just when Yan Lingji and Shao Siming saw this, they eased their attacks.

The Phoenix Fire suddenly abandoned the two of them, and the feathers on its tail made a "clang" sound, like a sharp sword carrying a terrifying breath of fire rushing straight towards Xia Tian.

For a moment, the sky was filled with sword energy, cutting through the void.

The flames are enough to kill a person's life force and boil the sea!
Obviously, as a ghost, this "Phoenix Fire" is not willing to "submit" to anyone, and would rather rely on its own strength to seize it directly!
"Be bold!"

Yan Lingji and Shao Siming both shouted, but it was too late to stop them.

However, there is no need to stop it.

"Hmm! If you don't accept my toast, will I have to drink the penalty wine?"

Xia Tian's eyes turned cold, and violent thunder power surged out, forming hundreds of "lightning snakes" that collided with the flying "Phoenix Feather"!
Each one precisely hit the tip of the feathers, causing the feathers to explode and flames to fly.

Boom, boom, boom...

hold head high!
Above his head, a "True Dragon Holy Image" surrounded by a huge aura of thunder appeared, grabbed the neck of "Phoenix Fire" and pressed it hard to the ground!
At this moment, the peak power of the seventh realm was fully revealed!
"Submit, or... die!"

Xia Tian's voice was cold and contained murderous intent.

The endless aura of thunder was like a cage, trapping the Phoenix Fire inside, with countless lightning snakes running through it.

The power of thunder itself has the ability to "break evil", and its ability to kill ghosts is no less than the "power of the sun". Now Xia Tian is suppressing the Phoenix Fire with his holy appearance, and the latter's method is extremely painful!

"Wow..."

Finally, this creature at the peak of the sixth realm could not bear it anymore and let go of its arrogance!
Wow…

And when Xia Tian took out the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade Scroll" and unfolded it, he was shocked to find that a large number of densely packed black "runes" appeared on the body of "Phoenix Fire"!
"So that's how it is. This scroll of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has the power to bind this 'Phoenix Fire'. Even the Phoenix Fire itself cannot get rid of this curse."

"That's why he hoped to use the holy fire of Ming Zun to cleanse these 'rune powers'... and gain freedom..."

Xia Tian understood something in his heart.

These "hundred ghosts" are sealed in the "scroll", and only "divine power" can break these blockades.

"If you join my Qianxia Dynasty sincerely, I can not only help you get rid of these shackles, but even allow you to be reborn into Nirvana..."

Xia Tian made a promise.

Hundreds of chains composed of the same black ghost energy emerged from the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade Scroll", pulling the "One Hundred Demons Phoenix Fire" and turning into a black mist that poured into the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade Scroll" in Xia Tian's hand.

On the originally blank scroll, there now appeared a pattern of a "Phoenix Bird" flapping its wings as if about to fly!

"Yes, in this way, most of the power of the Phoenix among the five auspicious beasts has been gathered... Next, I can let Yan Lingji use the Holy Fire Altar to bathe and be reborn... In this way, four of the five auspicious beasts can be gathered..."

Xia Tian was quite satisfied.

Pixiu, real dragon, Qilin, Phoenix... Four of the five auspicious beasts have already been figured out...

The only thing missing is a "divine turtle"...

The three continued to move forward, and after passing the city wall area, they suddenly saw a large expanse of "river water" in front of them. The surging waves even exceeded the banks on both sides, so that if they wanted to cross the river, they could only take the bridge in the middle!

At this moment, there was a woman in white with her hair loose standing on the bridge. Her back was so charming that it made people want to commit a crime...

"Another ghost from the holy realm..."

Hashihime is also one of the Hundred Demons.

It possesses the strength of a saint, and is considered a "superior" existence even among hundreds of ghosts!

According to a more common belief, this bridge girl is a monster that was transformed from a person who committed suicide by jumping into the river on the bridge because he was too ugly to receive the love of the man he loved, or because his love was taken away by others.

The customs of the people in Sakura Country are quite "perverted", and there are even regulations on how men and women commit suicide.

For example, samurai or men could only end their lives by seppuku to demonstrate their masculinity, while women could only end their lives by jumping into a river!
Because they represent the jealous resentment of a lovesick woman, this type of monster is usually quite terrifying. Because she deeply loves the man she loves but cannot be with him, she finally commits suicide by jumping off the Uji Bridge and becomes the bridge princess.

If a man, especially the type of man you liked during your lifetime, passes by here at night.

She would appear on the bridge, seduce men with all kinds of charming methods, and then lure them into the water and drown them.

In addition, due to her strong jealousy, if any woman who is prettier than herself passes by here, Hashihime will forcibly drag her into the water and drown her!
"am I pretty?"

When the three of them got on the bridge, Qiao Ji looked at Xia Tian, ​​revealing a very pretty face. Unfortunately, in Xia Tian's "Eye of the True Dragon", her real face was too ugly, and she had no intention of "talking" to her at all!

"You actually didn't look at me... I understand, it's these two women..."

Hashihime's voice was sharp.

With the looks of Yan Lingji and Shao Siming, they are definitely within the envy of this "Qiao Ji".

Wow…

Suddenly, the entire bridge surface shook violently, and a large number of pale, wet figures rushed out from the river. They were all residents who had been dragged into the water. There were hundreds of them...surrounding both ends of the bridge, cutting off the three people's retreat...

"You don't have to do anything. This is a good opportunity to test whether this 'Phoenix Fire' is obedient."

Xia Tian stopped Shao Siming and the other man from taking action, and directly unfolded the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade Scroll" in his hand!
"This thing is actually in your hands..." When Qiao Ji saw the scroll in Xia Tian's hand, she was a little surprised at first, and then showed greed.

However, after seeing Xia Tian unfold the scroll and release the "Phoenix Fire", his facial expression changed drastically.

"Wind, strong wind!"

There is no need for Xia Tian and the other two to take action.

The "Great Qin Warriors" who were tied up by the tail of the Phoenix Fire opened their eyes one by one, waved the crossbows in their hands, and shot out arrows formed by blue-black flames.

Each one of them has the ability to kill ninth-level transcendental creatures, or even quasi-transcendent creatures!
These "water ghosts" are nothing more than the Sakura people who were lured into the water by Hashihime and enslaved by her ghost power. Even though they have become ghosts, they only possess a meager power of transcendence and are simply unable to withstand the attacks of hundreds of soldiers with extraordinary skills!

Even the fire power of this phoenix could continue to burn even after entering water. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of "water ghosts" that Qiao Ji had transformed before were slaughtered!
"Damn it, go..."

Qiao Ji's own strength is just barely at the Saint level. Compared with the "Phoenix" at the quasi-seventh level, there is a world of difference!
So, seeing that she was no match for her opponent, Hashihime screamed and tried to escape with the help of the current.

Clang, clang, clang, clang...

However, Phoenix Fire didn't want to let her leave at all.

The tail feathers on its body, carrying flames, swept in all directions like a sharp sword.

Even the river water, which was three meters high and originally covered a large area of ​​the surrounding streets, was almost evaporated under the flames of the phoenix.

Different from other creatures, this Bridge Princess is an "earthbound spirit" who can only escape by clinging to a bridge or using "river water".

Now that the water surface has been broken, there is naturally no way to escape!

Boo!
Even the flames did not stop, trying to burn down the entire "ancient bridge"...

Obviously, Fenghuanghuo was feeling resentful after being "suppressed" by Xia Tian before, and he was ready to vent it on this "Qiao Ji".

"Stop it, that's enough..."

In the end, it was Xia Tian who took action and unfolded the "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons".

A large number of runes and chains suddenly appeared on Qiao Ji's body, just like the phoenix fire before, pulling her into the scroll.

On the scroll, a pattern of an ancient bridge and a woman with a graceful back on the bridge appeared again!
"This is the second 'ghost' from the holy realm... This Hashihime's power is not bad... It's more suitable for water battles..."

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."

At this time, another voice sounded.

Then, I found that the scenery in front of me had changed. On the calm river surface, a cruise ship was swimming towards me.

And the location of the bow of the cruise ship.

"Ding, ding, ding..."

A singer wearing a beautiful and gorgeous kimono and with skin as white as ice was holding a thirteen-string koto in her arms and playing it, and the sound waves passed by.

The lanterns around were spinning, and the flickering flames shone through lampshades of different colors, showing different brightness and different optical fibers!
After drinking, many guests danced to the "music", looking like they were drinking happily until dawn.

It is quite inconsistent with the serious atmosphere of "One Hundred Demons Night Parade".

"It's quite interesting! What is this, square dancing? It even looks a bit like being in a bar with a DJ playing DJ!"

Xia Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, not worried at all about this strange scene.

A man of great skill and courage is a ghost in the sixth realm of transcendence. To him, it is nothing!
"Sirs, please get on board quickly. Today, Miss Yu'er will perform a stunning dance of her own... If you miss this opportunity, you will miss this restaurant..."

Several short Japanese men called "Kuigong" invited the three people to board the ship.

With a flattering smile on his face, he seemed not to care at all about the battle that had just taken place on the battlefield!
"Let's go together..."

After thinking about it, Xia Tian took Yan Lingji and Shao Siming and stepped onto the "cruise boat".

It was because Xia Tian discovered that the direction of the river extended all the way to that "shrine".

It just so happens that I can travel by boat.

In this way, they can avoid most of the ghosts and get to the shrine earlier to stop the plot of "Tokugawa Ieyasu".

Of course, it is not so easy to get on this boat... Xia Tian's eyes, the eyes of insight swept over the singer who was playing the guzheng.

[One Hundred Ghosts: Bone Girl (Gold)]

【Cultivation】Extraordinary Five Realms

[Features]?,? (Obstructed by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, unable to be fully seen)
[Description] A quasi-saint level monster with impressive strength!

The Bone Girl's true appearance is the skeleton of a woman. She was envied by women and betrayed by men during her lifetime.

In the end, he died tragically and turned into a pile of bones over the years, but his obsession with the world could not be dispelled for a long time.

So at night, she would hold a peony lantern in her hand and seduce the men passing by on the roadside. In the eyes of the men, she was an ordinary woman with a pretty face, but in the eyes of others, she was a scary skeleton!

There is no doubt that this bone girl has certain similarities with the Painted Skin in Chinese legend.

In fact, many of the ghosts in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons are "Chinese ghosts", which is also a manifestation of cultural influence.

"This is Miss Tamamo, a famous courtesan in Tokyo who has won the title for many consecutive terms... Tonight, she will dance for the many distinguished guests..."

At this time, an old procuress with thick white powder on her face held her feet in her mouth and shouted in a shrill voice, attracting the attention of everyone on the ship.

creak!

Then the door of the cruise ship was opened.

A woman wearing a golden-red kimono, like a Chinese wedding dress, with a fan covering half of her face, walked out!

"Hiss, this girl's appearance, even if I can't see her face, is still a beauty..."

The crowd exclaimed.

It was because, the person who walked out of the cabin was actually a stunningly beautiful woman. Even though her face was still covered with a veil, she still had an indescribable aura.

The cloud-like hair, flowery face, and golden step-shaking ornaments, the hibiscus tent is warm for the spring night! (End of this chapter)
