Phoenixes and True Dragons were beings of the same tier. The difference was that True Dragons could reproduce, their numbers steadily increasing.
Phoenixes were different. There were only nine Phoenixes in the Myriad Worlds, and that number was fixed. Whenever one died, it would be reborn in flames, its power advancing another step until it reached Ancestral Enfeoffment.
Burial Saint Valley held one unfortunate Phoenix. Before its rebirth, while it was still in egg form, it had been drawn into the valley. Thanks to Burial Saint Valley's immense, majestic power, this Phoenix could neither die nor perish, but its strength had consequently remained at the Half-Sage level.
As long as someone brought out this Phoenix-Luring Fruit at a particular location, the Phoenix might appear. They could then exchange the fruit for an item from the Phoenix's collection.
However, this exchange depended heavily on luck. Some received sacred remains, others received Half-Sage treasures, yet others received only ordinary Fifth Realm spirit bones.
For most outsiders, Fifth Realm spirit bones already counted as an excellent haul, but compared with the other treasures the Phoenix offered, they seemed insignificant.
Whatever the case, the Phoenix's collection would never be poor.
The Ancient Demons looked on covetously. Although no one knew where the Phoenix would be, as long as they kept flying through Burial Saint Valley with a Phoenix-Luring Fruit, they would eventually have a chance to attract it.

Fang Yun looked at Ying Hong thoughtfully.
