Entering the Deadly Region Under Spiritual Treasure Protection
The Phoenix Clan has truly fallen.
In the ancient war, almost all of the Phoenix Clan's powerful warriors perished.
Even those who miraculously survived were severely injured and unable to recover due to the entanglement of Karmic Debt.
Those who actually survived were mostly members of the tribe who were not qualified to participate in that battle.
Moreover, due to the burdens of Karmic Debt, Phoenix Clan cultivators face difficulties in advancing their ranks, and their reproductive capacity is constantly decreasing.
Nowadays, the true Phoenix Clan is extremely rare, and most of them are of impure blood.
The strongest among them was only Daluo Golden Immortal.
Sensing the aura of the Ice Phoenix, they were naturally overjoyed.
Ice Phoenix's return gave them hope.
But when they discovered that the Ice Phoenix had already become Spiritual Treasure Body, besides disappointment, they felt even more resentment towards the person who had caused all of this.
Cihang and Ice Phoenix were traveling together and their auras were connected, so naturally they began to take their anger out on Cihang.
"Elders, please do not be so rude. This is Fellow Daoist Cihang."
If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Cihang, I'm afraid my soul would have been scattered to the winds by now.
Transforming into Spiritual Treasure Body was a last resort.
Ice Phoenix noticed their unusual behavior and immediately spoke up to explain.
In front of many clansmen, Ice Phoenix did not address Cihang as her master again, so as not to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings.
"We have met Fellow Daoist Cihang. We apologize for any offense we may have caused you before and hope you will forgive us!"
Upon hearing this, all the Phoenix Clan cultivators apologized and bowed to Cihang.
"It's alright, I understand how you all feel."
Cihang was not angered by this.
Having lived in a different place, he could understand the feelings of these Phoenix Clan.
Moreover, they didn't actually make a move.
After learning the whole story, everyone treated Cihang with even greater politeness and respect.
For a time, compliments poured in, and Cihang became the center of attention.
"You've just returned, you must have many questions to ask, so I won't bother you any longer."
After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Cihang gave the time to Ice Phoenix.
The Phoenix Clan can be said to be Ice Phoenix's biggest obsession and deepest regret. Hopefully, after this incident, Ice Phoenix can let go of everything.
"Thank you, Ice Phoenix. I will repay you after this matter is resolved!"
Ice Phoenix once again solemnly thanked Cihang.
They then arranged for their clansmen to prepare a meditation cave for Cihang.
"This cave dwelling is located on the main peak, a rare place where all five elements are present. Are you satisfied, fellow Daoist?"
The Phoenix Clan valued Cihang highly and arranged for him to reside in a cave on a main peak.
"This place is already very good, thank you for your help, fellow Daoist!"
Cihang politely thanked her.
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be so polite."
My cave dwelling is not far away. If you need anything, please feel free to come and find me anytime!
The Phoenix Clan cultivator pointed to the cave dwelling not far away and said.
"Then thank you very much, fellow Daoist!"
After seeing the other party off, Cihang entered the cave and activated the protective restrictions.
As the Phoenix Clan cultivator said, this place indeed possesses all five elements, making it very suitable for him.
While Ice Phoenix learned about the Phoenix Clan's situation, Cihang didn't waste any time. He took out the Fire Spirit Pearl and began to break the seal within it.
Although it cannot be refined into the body for the time being, the Human Emperor's inheritance within it is still very important.
Besides the laws of cultivation, the Human Emperor's legacy also contains many hidden secrets of heaven and earth.
After her journey to the Western Extremity Secret Realm, Cihang discovered that this world still held many secrets.
His understanding of the world was merely superficial.
Thanks to Cihang's efforts, the seal on the Fire Spirit Pearl was broken, restoring it to the level of a high-grade spiritual treasure.
The essence of the Human Emperor Seal merged into the All Beings Seal, making the All Beings Seal even more complete.
"Just as I expected, after fusing with the essence of the divine seal, the All Beings Seal only gained a few more restrictions and did not advance further!"
Looking at the All Beings Seal, Cihang couldn't help but sigh again.
He no longer hopes that the All Beings Seal can be upgraded to the highest grade; he would be satisfied as long as it can be restored to the level of a high-grade spiritual treasure.
Cihang did not continue to focus on the All Beings Seal, but instead turned her attention to the succession of the Human Emperor.
After refining the Fire Spirit Pearl, he also obtained a portion of the Human Emperor's inheritance.
It merged with those previously jumbled memories.
Cihang tried to organize the memories, but they were too chaotic, and many were ambiguous.
It's difficult to obtain truly useful information.
The descriptions of the Four Extremities are even more limited, consisting of only a few words.
In comparison, the methods of cultivation are much more complete.
However, these are of no use to Cihang for the time being.
To integrate all paths and methods, the minimum requirement is the Great Luo Realm.
"It seems that I still need to collect Innate Five Spirit Pearls to obtain the complete memory inheritance!"
In the end, Cihang had no choice but to give up.
At that moment, fluctuations from the formation emanated from outside the cave.
Cihang activated the great formation, Ice Phoenix stepped in.
"But is there any good news?"
Ice Phoenix 'Ice Phoenix expression was less somber than before, which reassured Cihang considerably.
"I learned from the elders that the Mother Goddess may not have perished."
Ice Phoenix's voice was clearly tinged with excitement.
"Really? Yuanfeng really didn't perish?"
Cihang was genuinely happy for Ice Phoenix.
"Yes, in that great battle, both the Mother Goddess and the Ancestral Dragon Beginning Qilin were severely injured."
The three of them each swore to repay the Karma heaven and earth, and many of their people witnessed the Mother Goddess sinking into the Immortal Volcano.
Although this Immortal Volcano is dangerous, it may not necessarily take the life of the Mother Goddess!
Ice Phoenix explained excitedly.
"This is indeed a good thing!"
If Yuanfeng had truly survived, Ice Phoenix wouldn't have had to bear such immense pressure.
"Master, Ice Phoenix wishes to explore the interior of the volcano. I hope you will grant my request!"
Ice Phoenix bowed respectfully to Cihang.
"You want me to take you inside the Immortal Volcano?"
Thinking back to the sea of lava she had seen before, Cihang still felt lingering fear.
"Yes, the power of volcanic magma is violent and domineering. Even the Ice Phoenix's Spiritual Treasure Body cannot reach its depths. I hope Master can grant my request?"
If he could, he wouldn't want Cihang to take such a risk.
But he had tried before, and before he could even venture deep into the sea of lava, he was forced back by its violent power.
Only Cihang, who possesses a top-grade spiritual treasure for protection, might have a chance to try.
"Then I'll go with you!"
After much hesitation, Cihang finally agreed to Ice Phoenix's request.
He also wanted to see what the inside of this Immortal Volcano was like, and whether Yuanfeng had already perished.
"Thank you, Master!"
Ice Phoenix bowed deeply in gratitude.
"No need to be so polite, let's go now!"
The two reappeared in the outside world, surrounded by a large number of the Phoenix Clan cultivators.
Not only Ice Phoenix, but they were all eagerly awaiting news of Yuanfeng.
However, the sea of lava and fire below was too fierce, and even they could not penetrate deep into the core area.
Now that they heard Cihang was willing to help, everyone thanked her and looked at Cihang expectantly.
"Without further ado, let's go and find out what's going on!"
Cihang stands atop Pure Glazed Vase on her head and treads on World-Ending Black Lotus on the back of Ice Phoenix.
The two magical treasures emitted a strong, precious light, protecting the two of them.
With a flap of its wings, the icy wind rushed straight towards the sea of lava.
In an instant, a surging, violent force attacked the two of them.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The surging impact struck the precious light, producing a series of booming sounds.
Protected by the magical treasure, the two remained unmoved and continued deeper into the lava sea.
