Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

Deep in the dense woods, a soft white light slowly rose into the sky, revealing a long boat about twenty feet long.

This jade boat is divided into two layers and is pure white as a whole, just like a carefully carved jade.

Its surface is engraved with strange patterns, with golden and silver runes flickering in between, exuding an extraordinary aura.

With a slight tremor, the runes on the jade boat suddenly burst into brilliant light.

In an instant, it turned into white clouds that tightly wrapped the entire ship, and finally formed a huge cloud.

This seemingly ordinary giant cloud circled in the sky for a week and then flew away silently in a certain direction.

What’s amazing is that although this cloud looks light and slow, it is actually moving at an incredibly fast speed.

In the blink of an eye, it had crossed a distance of hundreds of feet. Its speed was so fast that even ordinary Jindan cultivators could hardly match it.

"It really lives up to its reputation. As the controller of the human race's auction house, the Long family can even own a spiritual boat like this."

Xiaohong stood at the bow of the boat, looking around at everything, a satisfied smile on her face.

She continued:
"Although Lingyun Boats are not rare, one that can travel so quickly like this is an extremely rare masterpiece."

Fairy Xiao expressed her admiration for the speed and space of the Lingyun Boat. She thought that although it was not a rare treasure, its speed was acceptable, and its interior was spacious with more than ten quiet rooms for everyone to rest.

Longdong suggested that each person take turns on duty for ten days, and the rest of the time they could move freely on the boat.

Yan Yun and others had no objection to this. They each chose a quiet room that they were satisfied with and set up restrictions to prevent being spied on by others.

Afterwards, the five of them discussed and determined the rotation order. Yan Yun happened to be the last one, which meant that he had to start taking duty in forty days.

After everything was arranged, Yan Yun entered his quiet room and opened the ban.

On that quiet spirit boat, everyone's performance was exactly the same.

Except for Longdong, who was on duty, the rest of the people quickly went into their respective rooms.

Seeing this, Longdong twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and then walked towards the head of the spirit boat again.

He just flipped his hand lightly, and in an instant, an emerald green cushion appeared in his hand.

He gently placed the cushion on the ground, then slowly sat cross-legged.

"Hmph, half a year... I really hope this day will come soon."

The young man with the blood mole moved his lips slightly, muttered a few words to himself, and then slowly closed his eyes.

However, that strange smile remained on his face for a long time and was difficult to dissipate.

In a quiet room several meters in size in Yuzhou, Xiaohong and the white-browed young man sat opposite each other, each sitting on a wooden chair.

"What? You said that the little girl named Ye Ying has the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix, and is also a descendant of the True Spirit Family?"

When the white-browed young man heard what the young woman said, he seemed to have heard something extremely shocking, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

"Why are you so surprised, Fellow Daoist Li? Your Black Eagle Clan is a rare race of celestial birds. I don't believe that you have no sense of the celestial phoenix bloodline in this girl."

"Although our Black Phoenix Clan is a branch of the Phoenix Clan, if we only talk about the purity of the Sky Phoenix blood, it is not as good as this little girl."

"However, if I can sense the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix in her body, I will never go wrong."

Xiao Hong said solemnly.

"So that's how it is!" The white-browed young man sighed slightly, his face showing a strange look. He recalled that when he first met the woman, he felt inexplicably uneasy and behaved a little bit at a loss.

"Fairy Xiao mentioned this matter to Mr. Li, but is there any deeper meaning behind it?" asked the white-browed young man.

“It doesn’t mean anything.”

Fairy Xiao smiled sweetly, but her eyes were cold.

"If she only possessed the blood of an ordinary true spirit, it would be fine. But this girl possessed the blood of the king of all birds, the Phoenix. Brother Li, do you really not know what this means?"

"Huh, I naturally understand what you mean."

The white-browed young man snorted coldly.
"But don't forget the instructions from the elders before we set out. This mission is extremely important to the demon race. If we delay important matters due to personal matters, even if we get the blood of the sky phoenix, we will not be able to enjoy it."

"Haha! I never said I would take action before reaching my destination."

Xiao Hong chuckled, "Completing this mission is the most important thing, it won't be too late to take action later."

The situation is changing, there is a fight for treasures, and undercurrents are surging.

The white-browed young man looked deep in thought. After a moment's contemplation, he slowly shook his head, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

He understood that if this was accomplished, it would not only affect the success or failure of the mission, but also involve various possibilities in the future.

The blood of the heavenly phoenix is ​​a legendary treasure that can change one's destiny.

However, even if it can be obtained, how to distribute it is a big problem.

This item is extremely precious and cannot be simply divided into two, which made him fall into deep thought.

At this moment, the young woman next to her gritted her teeth slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

She knew very well how important the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix was to the Black Phoenix Clan; it was the key to their clan's revival.

In order to obtain this power, she did not hesitate to offer an astonishing condition - three Black Flame Pills as a reward. This was not only a sincerity, but also a promise.

"Three Black Flame Pills?"

The white-browed young man was surprised when he heard this, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

He knew that these three pills were priceless and enough to allow him to break through his current bottleneck and reach a higher level.

But he also knew that this would not be easy.

Blackrock Forest is full of dangers, and it is still unknown whether we can return safely.

Faced with such temptation, how could he easily refuse?

After all, this is not just an opportunity to take risks, but also an opportunity to change your destiny.

So he took a deep breath and decided to join hands with the young woman to explore this land full of unknowns and dangers.

After some discussion, a conclusion was reached.

The white-browed young man solemnly promised that as long as the mission was successfully completed, he would do his best to help on the way back.

However, extracting the blood of the true spirit is by no means easy, especially from a true spirit family with a long history.

Their true blood has been precipitated over countless years and has long been closely integrated with the bodies of these people from aristocratic families. It is extremely difficult to obtain the true blood of the spirit.

Thinking of this, the white-browed young man couldn't help but frown slightly, with a hint of solemnity in his expression.

"No need to worry."

The young woman raised her head slightly and said proudly,
"We, the Black Phoenix Clan, may not have a good way to obtain other true bloods, but we have already studied the method of separating the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix for countless years. I am at least 70% to 80% sure of this."

"It couldn't be better if the fairy is so confident."

The young man with white eyebrows nodded slightly after hearing this, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face. …

At the same time, in another quiet room, the white-robed girl Ye Ying was sitting cross-legged on a warm jade bed.

She made quick hand gestures with her hands and closed her eyes slightly, as if she was in a mysterious realm.

Behind her head, a green halo with a diameter of several feet slowly emerged. The halo slowly rotated and emitted a strange light.

Upon closer inspection, the green halo was not only extremely round, but also had white flames about a foot high flickering gently at the edge, like a lively elf jumping.

And in the middle of the halo, there was a human-shaped shadow sitting there.

Surprisingly, the appearance of this light and shadow is vaguely similar to that of the girl, but its body is several times smaller than that of the girl.

It also had its eyes slightly closed, and seemed to be silently making hand gestures with its hands, as if it was performing some mysterious practice.

Suddenly, the girl's mouth opened slightly, revealing a hint of sarcastic smile.

Almost at the same time, the face of the shadow in the halo showed the same expression, as if the two were the same person. This scene was really weird.

Yan Yun paced in the quiet room with a calm expression, but his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

There were two small objects placed on the jade table in the corner of the quiet room.

One of them was a small leopard the size of a wild cat, with its limbs stretched out, lying there without any posture, looking extremely lazy.

Sitting on its furry head is a mini monkey several inches tall.

This little monkey has shiny black hair all over its body and bright eyes. It stares straight at Yan Yun, revealing its spirituality.

Suddenly, Yan Yun stopped and turned his palm, revealing a small medicine bottle and a milky white jade slip.

The medicine bottle had ancient patterns and three ancient characters engraved on it. Upon closer inspection, they were the words "Mie Chen Dan".

Yan Yun gently stroked the medicine bottle with his fingers for a moment, then sighed softly. A flash of light passed by, and the medicine bottle disappeared without a trace, leaving only the jade slip.

This jade slip was an object left behind by several mysterious monks who visited him before he left Tianyuan City.

Yan Yun placed the jade slip in front of his forehead and immersed his consciousness in it.

The jade slip contained a vast map, but most of the map was missing, with only a dot on the edge that was shining with a faint golden light.

Although he had viewed it many times, Yan Yun couldn't help but look at the map again, as if hoping to dig out some hidden information from it.

Deep in the distant Tianyuan City, there is a secret underground chamber.

Here, a monk and a Taoist were sitting around a seemingly ordinary bluestone table, facing each other in silence.

The Taoist was about forty years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a light golden complexion.

The old monk had a half-foot long white beard, his face was covered with wrinkles, and his eyes were narrowed into slits. He seemed to be so old that even opening his eyes was difficult for him.

"According to the time, the people sent to various tribes should have met up on the road."

The old monk said with a hint of fatigue in his tone.

After Jin Yue came out of seclusion, he changed the established policy and insisted on sending the newly ascended outstanding monks to a foreign land.

The reason behind this is hard to understand.

It should be noted that these young talents are the best among their peers, and the task of investigating the movements of alien races seems ordinary, but in fact it is full of dangers.

In addition, I noticed that although the demons seemed to be cooperating closely with us on the surface, they might have other intentions in secret.

The old monk did not directly respond to the recent frequent actions of various ethnic groups, but answered them with questions.

How could I not know about the new Xuantian treasure added to the Chaos Spirit List—the "Xuantian Soul-Slaying Sword" that ranks among the top three?
When I heard the name, I felt shocked.

Tens of thousands of years later, the siege incident that should not have happened and the rumored war of hundreds of races may break out. The root cause of these abnormal phenomena lies in the appearance of the Xuantian treasure.

Brother Jin Yue pointed out that the reason why all the tribes are now trembling with fear is because they are afraid of being involved in the turmoil caused by the Xuantian treasure.

According to historical practice, the birth of Xuantian's treasure is often accompanied by blood and rain.

The race that finally obtains this treasure can use it to worship a true spirit-level being as a guardian, thereby becoming a powerful force in the spiritual world.

However, before a powerful true spirit appears, the race that obtains this treasure must have enough strength to protect it, otherwise it will only serve as a wedding dress for others.

If the race that first obtains this treasure is weak, they may choose to offer the treasure to other powerful races for protection, or abandon it to a wild land to avoid genocide.

Although the Taoist priest did not fully understand, he did not interrupt the monk's narration. The monk paused for a moment and then continued:

"It stands to reason that the location of the Xuantian treasure is difficult to predict, especially for our two clans."

"This time, a cultivator in the fusion stage with a gift for prophecy from the demon race knew that he could not survive the upcoming catastrophe, so he used up all his life's magic power to divine the whereabouts of this treasure."

"The results show that the Xuantian Soul-Slaying Sword is located in the northwest corner of Fengyuan Continent."

"Although Fengyuan Continent is the smallest of the three known continents, its number of races far exceeds that of other continents."

"The northwest corner includes six or seven races, including the human race, the demon race, the spirit race, the wood race, the Yaksha race, and the shadow race."

"Therefore, this treasure may also appear among our human race."

"Currently, only the human and demon races know about this, but due to the existence of spies, the news will leak out sooner or later. Once other races learn about it, the consequences can be imagined."

When the old monk said this, his face was bitter.

The human race was in imminent danger and was about to be exterminated. When the Taoist heard this, his face turned pale.

According to ancient legends, if a large number of powerful creatures are destroyed in a certain area within a certain period of time, the mysterious treasure of the area can be forcibly summoned through the mysterious method of blood sacrifice.

Given the strength of our tribes, those powerful races will definitely not let us go. It is very likely that they will wipe out all of our tribes and hold a blood sacrifice.

In the last war of hundreds of races, the fourth-ranked "Heavenly Shield" caused such a catastrophe.

Its original owner fled with it across three continents for ten thousand years, involving almost 70% to 80% of the races on the continent.

Most of the weaker races became the targets of blood sacrifice.

Now, no matter which tribe this treasure falls into, as long as the northwestern tribes know that it is in this area, a war will immediately break out to avoid becoming the target of blood sacrifice.

The monk felt helpless about this and sighed endlessly.

The Taoist priest suddenly realized that the reason why those new ascended monks were suddenly asked to leave Tianyuan City and go to the land of foreign races was because they suspected that they were involved in this matter.

"That's right! This Xuantian treasure is a rare item that has the power of the laws of the anti-world. Not only is it not an ordinary thing, it is more likely to come from another world."

"Although this possibility is very small, just in case, in the past few hundred years, all suspicious ascended monks have been expelled from Tianyuan City by me and sent to the alien race to perform the most dangerous tasks."

"Regardless of the success or failure of the mission, they will find it difficult to return to Tianyuan City in the short term."

"Similarly, any local cultivators who are slightly suspicious will be transferred out of Tianyuan City under various pretexts and exiled to the wild lands."

"In addition, a group of people with outstanding qualifications and unlimited potential were also sent to the wild world." (End of this chapter)
