Ten Thousand Year Phoenix Fire Soul Ring

"One, one hundred thousand year quality?! Just how heaven-defying must its effects be?!"

"That goes without saying... it's exceptionally powerful. Come on, Xiao Feng, let's head to Sea God Lake now..."

Ma Xiaotao viciously tore off a fist-sized chunk of Whale Rubber and dangled it in front of Lin Feng, her face wearing that "you know what I mean" mischievous smirk.

"Are we going to soak in the hot springs again? Sister Xiaotao, we've been doing this for a week, please have mercy..."

"Be good, this is a major tonic, I guarantee you'll be full of energy tomorrow." Ma Xiaotao leaned in close, her tone laced with coaxing.

"Fine, let's give it a try." Lin Feng, dazed and confused, was half-coaxed and half-dragged into nodding.

A wider smile bloomed in Ma Xiaotao's eyes. She wrapped one arm around Lin Feng's waist, spread the wings on her back, and flew toward Sea God Lake amidst the night.

The night wind whistled in their ears.

Once they reached mid-air, Ma Xiaotao held the small, warm, soft piece of Whale Rubber to Lin Feng's lips: "Come on, eat it while it's hot, the effects are best that way."

Lin Feng took it from her hand and bit down hesitantly.

The next moment, his entire face crumpled into a ball!

An indescribable scent, as if the saltiness of the entire deep sea had been concentrated, slammed into his mouth and surged straight toward his crown.

"Ugh—"

He covered his mouth, struggling to keep from vomiting, tears streaming from his eyes.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao curiously tasted a tiny bit herself.

"Ugh—"

Her smile froze instantly, and her delicate brows knitted tightly together.

"This, this taste, it truly lives up to the one hundred thousand year quality," she swallowed with difficulty, "it's at least several times more potent than the ten-thousand-year one..."

The potency of this Whale Rubber seemed to arrive faster and more violently than expected.

Lin Feng felt a scorching heat explode from the depths of his stomach, instantly transforming into a torrent that rushed toward his limbs and bones.

A strange sensation spread in its wake; amidst the burning pain, there was an indescribable comfort, as if withered wood had encountered spring or a long drought had met life-giving rain.

Ma Xiaotao, beside him, was faring no better. This ethereal, transformative sense of comfort made her unable to stop herself from letting out soft moans and gasps.

She possessed the Phoenix Evil Fire, and this Whale Rubber was an object of extreme yang and rigidity; at this moment, the two fierce forces within her body collided and merged.

Sweat soaked through her dress, clinging to her curvaceous figure, and a rouge-like flush seeped beneath her fair skin, making her look like a ripe red apple.

She bit her lower lip, struggling to fly with Lin Feng to the surface of Sea God Lake, and the two plunged into the lake water to cool down.

Gurgle, gurgle...

Lin Feng's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, his vision blurring and swaying.

In his daze, he saw Ma Xiaotao embracing him.

She seemed drawn by the heat, or perhaps attracted by the increasingly intense and pure yang energy radiating from Lin Feng's body.

The next moment, a touch of moist softness pressed against Lin Feng's lips.

Their scorching breaths merged instantly, and between their lips and teeth, she passed over the heat, carrying the fishy sweetness of the Whale Rubber and the aura of the Phoenix Fire.

This contact was like a spark falling into a sea of oil, exploding instantly.

Amidst his chaotic, struggling thoughts, Lin Feng finally understood the side effect of this Whale Rubber...

Deep blue Mystic Ice Spirit Flame began to rise from Lin Feng's body, forming a layered confrontation with Ma Xiaotao's dark red Phoenix Evil Fire.

Like dry wood meeting a raging fire, his reason burned away inch by inch under the potent effects...

Ma Xiaotao clung to him like an octopus, her arms wrapped around Lin Feng's neck, her legs entwined around his waist, pressing him tightly against herself.

As their lips and tongues tangled, she greedily sought that sliver of Mystic Ice energy that could temporarily soothe the fire consuming her body.

This Mystic Ice Spirit Flame contained more than just the power of mystic ice; after the long years of sealing and nourishment by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, the spiritual power condensed deep within the spirit flame had become as vast as an abyss.

This spiritual power transformed into an invisible bridge, connecting their surging seas of consciousness.

Their divine senses merged, leaving no boundaries.

Deep within the sea of consciousness, Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Evil Fire spiraled completely out of control, turning into a heaven-burning rage that dragged her through the cycle of destruction and rebirth time and time again.

The scorching pain and extreme pleasure intertwined, leaving her trapped, unable to pull herself away.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng circulated the Earth-grade Flame Mantra, attempting to devour the rampaging Phoenix Evil Fire.

However, the endless flames and sinking intent within Ma Xiaotao's divine sense were like a monstrous wave, constantly battering his consciousness.

He was like a lone boat in a raging sea, struggling desperately between devouring the fire and holding onto his true self, his consciousness teetering on the edge of being lost.

The chain reaction triggered by this one hundred thousand year Whale Rubber had become like a wild horse without a bridle, impossible to rein in.

"Not good! Something's wrong!"

Such earth-shattering energy fluctuations instantly alerted Yan Shaozhe on Sea God Island.

His figure moved like lightning, darting over.

Upon arriving at the scene, he saw the fierce Phoenix Evil Fire like an out-of-control sun, turning a section of the water into a furnace; he couldn't even see the specific situation of the two people at the center of the flames.

Yan Shaozhe's expression was grave as his surging soul power formed a barrier, temporarily isolating the area.

At the same time, he attempted to use soul power transmission to pierce through the sea of fire and awaken Lin Feng within.

He understood that only Lin Feng, who was at the heart of the inferno, might have a sliver of a chance to pull Ma Xiaotao back from her completely uncontrollable nirvana.

However, an hour passed, and the flames not only failed to weaken but instead raged with increasing violence.

Lin Feng's aura remained silent deep within the sea of fire, impossible to rouse; Yan Shaozhe was burning with anxiety, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

His mentor, Mu En, was in a deep slumber, and Xuan Zi was the most unreliable of the unreliable—he could not be counted on at all.

Just at this moment of extreme crisis, the towering Golden Ancient Tree at the center of Sea God Island suddenly bloomed with a soft yet magnificent golden halo.

A supreme, mighty force penetrated directly into the violent Phoenix Evil Fire, soothing Lin Feng's sinking consciousness.

"Hum--!" Lin Feng's entire body shuddered violently, and he snapped his eyes open.

"Not good!" The moment he regained clarity, Lin Feng immediately sensed the condition of Ma Xiaotao in his arms; the source of the evil fire within her was like a burst dam, completely out of control.

Even with his formidable physique, which had been strengthened many times over, he was currently being scorched by the runaway Phoenix Evil Fire until he was riddled with holes, the pain piercing his heart.

If not for the massive life force left behind by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm frantically repairing his body, he would have already been reduced to ashes in the first instant.

There was no time to hesitate, and even less time to regret.

A look of determination flashed in Lin Feng's eyes as he held the scorching body in his arms even tighter, the Xuan-tier Flame Mantra spinning at an unprecedented speed.

This time, it was an act of devouring, guiding, and bearing.

He drew the destructive flames toward his own Body Martial Soul, using his body as a sheath to contain this blade of fire that threatened to incinerate everything.

One hour, two hours...

As the last trace of the violent Phoenix Evil Fire source was completely devoured and refined by the Flame Mantra, a deep black soul ring condensed upon Lin Feng's Body Martial Soul.

It was an Exotic Flame Soul Ring formed entirely from the source of the evil fire, with an age reaching a full fifty thousand years, perfectly aligning with the upper limit of soul beast cultivation for a Soul Saint.

Meanwhile, within Ma Xiaotao, only the purest Phoenix Fire Origin remained.

A clear, resonant phoenix cry rang out across the sky above Shrek Academy, and the last traces of gloom surrounding the Evil Fire Phoenix dissipated.

Her martial soul had completed its ultimate transformation during the nirvana, evolving into a higher level of existence—a pure, flawless Fire Phoenix!

The sublimation of her martial soul brought about a frantic surge in her soul power.

The moment Ma Xiaotao's aura reached the seventieth-level bottleneck, Lin Feng operated the Flame Mantra, using himself as a conduit to carefully guide the newborn Phoenix Fire Origin within her.

She began to frantically absorb the rich heaven and earth energy above Sea God Lake, like a whale swallowing the ocean.

The morning sun broke through.

A soul ring, unprecedented in history, finally condensed and took shape slowly beneath her feet.

It was a soul ring birthed entirely from her own origin fire, and it had reached the terrifying level of one hundred thousand years!

Ma Xiaotao had successfully advanced to a Soul Saint!

And this self-condensed one-hundred-thousand-year Phoenix Fire Soul Ring was enough to shake the entire soul master world.
