Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 26: Iron-eating Beast and the Heavenly Book
The Phoenix clone, Zou Wu, and Dang Kang gathered together and waited quietly.

"Here it comes!" The clone stretched out his hand, and Wutongmu, who had been teleported two days ago, came back with a large pile of spiritual materials and small gifts.

It takes two days to accumulate the essence of the sun and the moon. After going there once, it takes another two days to accumulate the essence at the main body. A total of four days in total.

The main body will send some small gifts to the members of the Divine Beast Team. Dang Kang likes all kinds of cooking condiments. The red gourd has limited space, and all of it is used to store various spiritual materials that have not been absorbed in time. Now Dang Kang carries all the pots, pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt on his back. Zou Wu likes some small accessories, such as headbands, small bells, and all kinds of small gadgets. Thanks to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, the productivity has been greatly developed. The goods in Nandu are varied. For a long time, the small gifts sent by the main body will not be repeated.

Dang Kang and Zuo Wu were already numb to the Phoenix clone's act of using Wutong wood to send gifts to the team. Don't ask, just ask about the Phoenix clan's magical powers.

After receiving the gifts, the team's low morale finally improved a little.

When the team of divine beasts left Dongting Lake, the Dongting Dragon King kindly told them the route to Jing River.

According to Deng Chanyu's estimation, this is the route from Dongting to the west, first entering Sichuan, then going through Qishan like Prime Minister Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, and then going to Jinghe.

The Dragon King of Dongting Lake said that humans in the north were fighting. The north he was referring to was Nandu. The clone was originally trying to avoid areas where humans were active, so naturally he would not go any further north. Entering Sichuan was his only option.

And then they got lost!

"Look at the looks in your eyes, can you blame me for this? Wasn't that road dangerous before?!" The clone muttered a little dissatisfied.

The two friends received the gifts and did not object this time.

It was about three days ago. They were eating barbecue and singing while strolling on the road. Suddenly, the clone saw three big bright red words written on a cliff not far away.

"Luofengpo!"

At that time, the juice in her mouth spurted out, and then she hurriedly pulled Dang Kang and Zou Wu to take a detour. They kept taking detours and finally got lost.
"What delicious food are you eating? It smells so good. Can you let me, the old bear, have a taste too?" The three divine beasts were eating when suddenly a rough voice sounded in their ears.

The three mythical beasts looked at each other, and the Phoenix clone reacted the fastest. It jumped onto Zou Wu's back and signaled to run!
"Hey, wait a minute! Wait a minute! Ouch!" The prepared speech was interrupted by a certain Phoenix's unconventional move. The rough voice could only change its tone: "Hey, don't run away. Really, I'm not a bad bear. It's been a long time since anyone came to chat with me. If you keep me company, I will...I will give you a scroll of the Heavenly Book!"

The Iron-Eating Beast was filled with grief and indignation. The Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, including those who could accomplish things, every single one of them was evil-hearted! They were full of tricks, only to bully an honest bear like me! I thanked them profusely, only to be given three crappy books I couldn't even understand!
The moment he saw the Phoenix clone appear, he understood the intention of the Queen Mother of the West. It turned out that she was waiting for him, Old Bear, here?
Okay, I'll trick you too. I'll give you a roll first.

The clone was also shocked.

Nowadays, the name "Heavenly Book" cannot be used casually. Heaven is the greatest. If Heaven does not recognize it, it is useless no matter how exquisitely you write the book. The Heavenly Book can take shape and can be shown to outsiders, so it must be recognized by Heaven.

"Is it really the Book of Heaven?"

"Yeah yeah!"

"You're just chatting with you so you can show us the Book of Heaven?" "Yes, yes!"

"Really? I don't believe it."

Iron-eating beast: “.”

Can you still have a good chat? In ancient times, if you spoke like this, you would be hacked to death!

The clone looked at Zou Wu.

Zou Wu has the ability to distinguish good from bad. Dang Kang's ability is a little weaker, but he still has some. His clones have been pulling them westward, gathering a combination of divine beasts, auspicious beasts, and benevolent beasts. Having a good relationship is one thing, but it also means they have to be tied up! If a monster swallowed the three of them in one gulp, it would basically be a sin against the heavens, and thunder would probably strike in the next second!
Zou Wu didn't notice any danger, so for the sake of the Heavenly Book, his clone immediately decided to take a risk.

The three of them found a rugged mountain path and walked down for about an incense stick of time. They came to a cave and saw a giant beast lying on the ground with its limbs spread out. Like Zabuza Momochi's water prison technique, a huge oval-shaped, constantly rotating water ball pressed the giant beast in place, unable to move, with only a chubby head sticking out.

Phoenix clone: ​​"."

A round body, black eyes, black ears, and a fat face. Is this a panda?
"Hey! Little Phoenix, here's the heavenly book for you. Just chat with me, old bear." The panda was very straightforward. An ancient book with a green cover and only one finger thick appeared out of thin air.

The clone immediately picked it up and examined it, first looking at the cover and then flipping through the contents: "Hey, this is Feng Zhuan. Your book is quite old."

Dragon script and phoenix seal script are the oldest characters, even older than the Taoist script used by the Xuanmen. Fortunately, this information is in the blood of her clone, otherwise she would be blind.

The panda pouted and said nothing.

How refreshing! If it were just an ordinary Taoist text, would I show it to you? Do you think I'm stupid?

He was very optimistic and quickly put aside his unhappiness, telling jokes to Zou Wu with a laugh.

When Kang Le jokingly used the word "stupid pig" as his opening line, the panda rolled its eyes. Where did the stupid pig come from? Fortunately, he had self-awareness!
The clone was used to dual-threaded operations, flipping through the heavenly book while talking to the panda without any delay.

"As a general on Chiyou's side, I was unstoppable on the battlefield. From south to north, from west to east, I brandished my Tiger Soul Blade and sent those Yanhuang tribe members fleeing in panic!"

"Once, Yinglong came to attack. You know Yinglong, right? He's a pretty bad guy. Then I found him, so I sat on him, held down his dragon head, and beat him with my fist as big as a casserole. As I beat him, I asked him, 'Do you dare to attack me again?' 'Do you know you're wrong?' That guy then begged for mercy, hahahahaha!"

"Another time, Xuanyuan came to chop the old bear with his tattered Xuanyuan Sword. I told him I'd stand still and let you chop me. Guess what? The guy was so tired from chopping, but I didn't even lose a hair. Hahahaha!"

The panda blew its cheeks vigorously and told the story in such a rhythm that Dang Kang and Zou Wu were stunned.

The clone sneered and said, "You are just bullying those two little guys because they have little education. What you said sounds like Chi You did it. You know Chi You is dead, so he won't get up and beat you, right?"
