The Long Journey to Immortality

Although Venerable Pot Lamp was not skilled with the spirit sword, his stance of wielding the sword with one arm was exactly the same.

With a limp, Venerable Pot Lamp said, "A good broom."

Venerable Hudeng had a way of finding joy even in hardship.

"Okay, if you like it, that's fine." Han Lu felt that Venerable Pot Lamp was probably locked up in the bag and became withdrawn, which would explain his temperament.

Instead of extending any further kindness to Venerable Pot Lamp in building the treehouse, Han Lu simply returned all the treasures that originally belonged to Venerable Pot Lamp in her storage bag, checked the restrictions in Venerable Pot Lamp's sea of ​​consciousness once more, and then drifted away, leaving this former Nascent Soul cultivator in Phoenix Perch Forest.

Within a day, Venerable Pot Lamp's whereabouts were discovered by the phoenixes. Feng You took this opportunity to announce the reason for Venerable Pot Lamp's arrival and the results of the punishment for his cultivation being confined.

Since he was merely a sinner rather than a sabotage operative who infiltrated the Three Phoenix Forest, no phoenix would care about such a cripple with no cultivation.

Only a few fledgling phoenixes would tease Venerable Pot Lamp, but some fledgling phoenixes, out of curiosity, would take the initiative to strike up a conversation with Venerable Pot Lamp, thinking of making friends with this stranger.

In any case, Venerable Pot Lamp, who had been punished, settled down in the Three Phoenix Forest.

Although he no longer has any of his former high spirits, he is living a relatively peaceful life.

As for whether Venerable Pot Lamp will live to see the day he is released, no one knows.

Han Lu, who had also just moved into Fengqilin, was living a leisurely and peaceful life in Sanfenglin.

Perhaps because Sanfeng Forest is the settlement closest to the Great Yu Dynasty among the Nine Phoenixes, the Fire Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, and Illusion Phoenix in Sanfeng Forest are not as "rigid in their thinking" as the old stubborn people Han Lu met in Phoenix Perch Forest.

Han Lu still enjoys living there just as much as she did thirty years ago, feeling comfortable and at ease.

In keeping with Feng Hong's cultivation pace, Han Lu had a lot more free time to be clear-headed and active.

Alchemy, cultivation, and gift-giving became the main themes of Han Lu's life in the first few days.

It took about seven days for Feng Rubing to emerge from seclusion and meet Han Lu. Only then were all the gifts she had prepared for the phoenixes she had met at least once in the Phoenix Perch Forest finally delivered.

Upon seeing her former sister, who later became her daughter, Feng Rubing's emotions were no longer as complex as they had been back then.

She can easily call out "daughter," "Lulu," or even more affectionate names.

Whether preparing gifts for relatives or strangers, Han Lu puts her heart into them, which naturally allows her to integrate into the Three Phoenix Forest more as a phoenix rather than as a princess of the Illusion Phoenix Clan.

Besides interacting with her own kind, Han Lu also met the patriarchs of the Fire Phoenix and Ice Phoenix clans through Feng You's connection.

As a junior, Han Lu naturally received some gifts upon meeting these two important figures.

Some spirit stones, two magical artifacts of spirit quality, and numerous spiritual plants found only in the wilderness.

Originally, Han Lu's storage bag, which had gradually become less abundant after advancing to the Golden Core Realm, became full again under the care of her elders.

She enjoys a leisurely life, has a clear mind, and has received guidance from a renowned teacher.

Han Lu, who had also spent a lot of effort cultivating the "Li Feng Chapter," finally made a breakthrough in the fourth month after arriving at the Three Phoenix Forest.

Chapter 708 The Divine Power of the Fierce Phoenix

When this meditation session with Feng Hong ended, Han Lu felt as if a string in her mind had been plucked and played, and an indescribable sense of comfort permeated from her heart to every muscle in her body.

The muscles felt as if they had been injected with a stimulant, experiencing a pleasurable sensation.

Although this was the first time she had ever experienced this feeling, she was quite clear about what this strange feeling probably meant.

This breakthrough came very suddenly, not after struggling with a bottleneck for many days, but it still surprised Han Lu.

Everything was the result of her hard work; it was a natural outcome and within expectations.

Han Lu suddenly opened her eyes, thinking of secretly conducting an experiment.

However, she discovered that Feng Hong, who had been meditating, also sensed the change in her and woke up as well.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Feng Hong asked. "Did you break through?"

On the first day, Feng Hong learned from Han Lu that her sister was already a Four-Winged True Phoenix.

Naturally, he also knew that Han Lu had temporarily awakened her bloodline but was unable to use the Fierce Phoenix Divine Power.

He often worried unnecessarily, hoping that the various spiritual plants he picked from the Phoenix Perch Forest, whether he knew them or not, could help his sister.

Of course, Han Lu only dared to appreciate the good intentions, but didn't dare to eat any of them.

This was the first time Han Lu had ever experienced being able to share her joy with her loved ones so quickly, so she was naturally overjoyed. She nodded and smiled, "That's right, after working hard for almost half a year, I have finally successfully completed the Li Feng chapter to a minor level."

"With such a significant change in sensation, he should be able to unleash some supernatural abilities that only Li Feng can perform."

Han Lu wasn't very confident.

After all, Feng Hanchi was only making a judgment based on his feelings.

It is indeed possible that she didn't quite master the art of harmony, which is why the series of changes only scratched the surface.

Feng Hong was still young, so naturally he couldn't understand the subtext in Han Lu's words.

Holding the adjective he'd picked up from some book, he exclaimed joyfully, "Congratulations, sister, you've mastered your divine skill!"

Hearing such adjectives made Han Lu break out in a cold sweat. She muttered to herself that she should check the bookshelves in Feng Hong's room and tidy up the miscellaneous books on them.

Although the wording was inappropriate, Han Lu could fully understand Feng Hong's feelings.

Han Lu squinted her eyes and spent a few more moments sensing the changes within her body.

As a sense of connection returned, she spoke with absolute certainty, "Want to witness Li Feng's divine abilities?"

"Yes, of course I want to," Feng Hong said excitedly.

Nearly thirty years have passed since his birth, and Feng Hong, who has never left Fengqi Forest, is naturally looking forward to seeing some novel things he has never seen before.

Han Lu took two steps back, muttering incantations as she circulated her internal energy.

The next second, Han Lu entered a semi-spiritual state.

If she were to unleash the Phoenix Divine Power she sensed, Han Lu felt that only by being in a semi-spiritual state could she make it more apparent.

Looking at Han Lu's drastically changed appearance, Feng Hong was seeing this for the first time and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Sister, you've changed! Your dark skin is... and you're beautiful too."

"Watch closely."

After saying that, Han Lu squinted her eyes and continued reciting the incantation.

Feng Hong stared wide-eyed, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

This was Han Lu's first time using this supernatural power, and she was not very skilled at it. It took her a while to activate her bloodline and regain her senses.

Compared to the very direct effects of the other three phoenixes' supernatural powers, Li Feng's supernatural powers can almost be described as a unique secret technique that exists in an independent form.

By combining the spirit in her sea of ​​consciousness, the qi in her dantian, and the power in her muscles with the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan, Han Lu finally unleashed the Phoenix Clan's divine power that she had comprehended, using the central incantation of the "Phoenix Chapter".

Originally, the seven remaining shadows of Han Lu, illuminated by the seven spirit stone lamps in the training room, began to change.

In Feng Hong's eyes, the seven shadows beneath Han Lu's feet merged into one, and then slowly separated from Han Lu's body in the form of a chaotic sphere, appearing in mid-air behind her.

"What, what is this?" Stunned, Feng Hong instinctively flapped her wings and retreated a little, trying to get a bit further away from the strange shadow that had appeared behind her sister.

The shadow avatar generated by the divine power she activated within her body was the Phoenix Divine Power she had comprehended.

Of course, the sphere shape at this moment is only the state when this shadow avatar is not fully activated.

If Han Lu were to master this method, she would naturally be able to complete the series of steps—raising her breath, concentrating her mind, gathering her strength, taking a photo, and transforming—in one go at an even faster speed.

Han Lu glanced at the dark figure behind her out of the corner of her eye and smiled.

Without hesitation, he continued to use his supernatural powers.

As Han Lu manipulated this avatar with her mind, as if controlling a puppet on strings.

The spherical black shadow underwent a series of changes within three breaths.

The shadow, which was only the size of a basketball, suddenly swelled to nearly fifty times its original size.

The black shadow gradually solidified, like a phoenix that had been curled up, now spreading its wings and hovering in the air, glaring menacingly.

This phoenix resembles Han Lu's true form after her transformation. Apart from its color, it is almost identical to another "true self" that Han Lu "summoned" under the semi-real spiritual state.

"This is amazing!" Feng Hong, a very competent audience member, exclaimed immediately. "Sister, what is the origin of this move and what is its effect? ​​Tell me in detail."

Han Lu intended to control the phoenix to speak in the language of phoenixes to answer Feng Hong's question, but she discovered that this avatar could not speak.

Therefore, she could only control the black phoenix to fly within a small area of ​​the training room while explaining the mysteries to Feng Hong, who certainly wouldn't understand even if she listened.

Sure enough, Feng Hong only understood half of the explanation of the shadow's origin.

However, Feng Hong was able to understand most of the latter part, which explained the power and function of the shadow.

"So, in the future, when my sister fights with others, she can simultaneously control her phoenix avatar while in human form using various spells, magical artifacts, and talismans to fight her opponent?"

"That's amazing."

Feng Hong imagined himself learning this move and suddenly finding himself outnumbered while fighting his friends in a tournament.

Han Lu smiled and said, "Little brother, you summarized it very well."

"However, I'm still not quite getting the hang of this move. Right now, this external avatar is just a decoy. Not only can it unleash 70% of my strength, but it can only use fist and foot attacks and cannot use the supernatural powers and techniques of the other three bloodlines."

"Right now, it can only be considered a slightly more powerful technique than a typical clone technique."

Han Lu manipulated the black phoenix to "shake hands" with herself, explaining to Feng Hong the shortcomings of this move for the time being.

In Han Lu's mind, to fully utilize this move, one must be able to use the other three Phoenix Divine Powers in the form of the Shadow Phoenix. Not only that, but one's strength must also be almost the same as when one personally transforms into a Phoenix.

Only then will this move become her trump card, truly deserving the title of "powerful".

Chapter 709 Reverse Thinking

Although she hadn't yet reached her full potential, Han Lu was also thinking of assessing the power of the black phoenix bird born from the Li Feng Divine Power from more perspectives and with greater accuracy.

With her father Feng You not by her side and Feng Hong's strength still shallow, Han Lu could only practice on her own, using her combat experience to assess and judge the specific characteristics of the move, so as to avoid using her strengths to attack her weaknesses in the battle.

Feng Hong watched from the sidelines as an audience member, cheering and occasionally coming up with some whimsical ideas.

Watching Han Lu manipulate the black phoenix bird to gesture at the air, Feng Hong suddenly made a suggestion.

"Sister, why don't you fight this shadowy figure? It attacks you, you attack it; wouldn't that be a better way to conduct the test?"

It must be said that young people have rich imaginations, and Han Lu immediately adopted Feng Hong's ingenious idea.

In this way, the efficiency of testing has indeed been improved a lot.
