The little phoenix that Feng Nianzhi had conjured slapped the head of the young phoenix clan member with its wings without any politeness, muttering, "I am the Phoenix Lord! You've grown so powerful now, you don't even listen to me anymore?"
"Wait until the High Priest returns, then we'll see how he punishes you!"
After a good beating, the young man from the Phoenix Clan finally realized that the Phoenix Lord's mind was made up, and there was no point in saying anything more.
With things having come to this, the young man of the Phoenix Clan had no choice but to reluctantly and with a sorrowful expression open the barrier inside the Phoenix Tomb and retrieve a drop of Phoenix essence blood.
Looking at the young man from the Phoenix Clan with a pained expression, anyone who didn't know better would think that the drop of phoenix essence blood had been forcibly taken from his body.
Yes, he was unwilling, but he had no choice!
He had no choice but to obey the Phoenix Lord's orders.
Seeing the young man from the Phoenix Clan with a pained expression, Lin Yu found it amusing. After obtaining the Phoenix Blood Essence, Lin Yu immediately relaxed a lot and therefore no longer harbored any hostility towards the young man from the Phoenix Clan.
After obtaining the Phoenix Essence Blood, Lin Yu immediately sent it into the system without hesitation.
Now, he needs to use the energy from the phoenix's blood essence to unlock the Hongmeng System's permissions and explore this fantastical world.
"After granting some permissions, I can finally avoid the situation where I have to ask the system any questions at crucial moments and they can't answer them at all." Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief to himself.
The current Hongmeng System is severely limited, which Lin Yu finds quite unsettling.
Especially after experiencing the system from the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era, Lin Yu found it even more difficult to get used to this new era-defining system.
However, none of this was visible to Feng Nianzhi and the young people of the Phoenix Clan. In their eyes, Lin Yu had merely stored that drop of Phoenix essence blood in his storage space.
"Brother Lin Yu, are you done?" Feng Nianzhi looked at Lin Yu, who had been standing there for a while. He didn't seem to be circulating his spiritual energy; instead, he seemed to be in a daze.
Little did they know, Lin Yu had just been using the system's functions to analyze the phoenix's essence blood.
Just as Feng Nianzhi asked this question, Lin Yu had already successfully sent the phoenix essence blood into the system.
To be honest, this system from the Dao Qi era is quite troublesome to operate, quite different from the simple operation of the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era. As a result, Lin Yu had to study it for a while before he could successfully begin analyzing the Phoenix Essence Blood.
Upon hearing Feng Nianzhi's words, Lin Yu hurriedly nodded, but Feng Nianzhi's way of addressing him made him raise an eyebrow.
At first, Feng Nianzhi directly called himself "poor little thing," but now, he calls himself "Brother Lin Yu."
Doesn't this mean that my image in Feng Nianzhi's mind has improved, and that I'm more approved of by Feng Nianzhi?
Lin Yu smiled slightly, then turned his gaze back to the system.
It must be admitted that the essence of the phoenix contains considerable energy and has various extremely miraculous effects.
After the system upgrade is completed, it is estimated that it will also bring some benefits to Lin Yu.
However, Lin Yu also knew that it was unrealistic to expect to develop the full power of the Hongmeng System with just a drop of phoenix blood essence. The key was to find the fragments of the Heaven-Mending System and merge them all into a complete Heaven-Mending System fragment.
The fragments of the Heaven-Mending Fragment are related to the entire fantasy world, Lin Yu doesn't believe that there isn't information about the Hongmeng System within them.
Only by exploring the secrets of the fantasy world can one have the chance to become the master of this world, instead of being mastered by it!
"The item has been handed over to you. When are you going to return our High Priest?!"
"Let me give you a piece of advice: don't try anything funny with our Phoenix Lord, or our ancient Phoenix clan will fight you to the death! Even if only one phoenix remains, we will never let you go!"
The young man from the Phoenix Clan pressed on relentlessly, believing that Lin Yu was no different from a bandit.
Giving the Phoenix Essence Blood to this kid is like planting a huge time bomb; you never know when it will explode—it's extremely dangerous!
Under the persistent questioning of the young man from the Phoenix Clan, Lin Yu grew somewhat impatient and immediately said, "Have you been staying in the Phoenix Tomb for too long? Are you getting too lonely?"
"Otherwise, where would all this nonsense come from?! If I were to release your high priest now, the first thing he'd do is probably blow your head off."
"You still want to release him?"
As Lin Yu spoke, he raised an eyebrow.
The black-robed high priest was also quite powerful. After so much training, he must have understood Lin Yu's good intentions.
Moreover, in this fantasy world, to cleanse one's sins and avoid Heavenly Dao punishment, one must endure certain hardships. Therefore, everything the black-robed high priest is experiencing now is, in fact, necessary.
"Lord Phoenix!" Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with Lin Yu, the young man from the Phoenix Clan immediately went to Feng Nianzhi for help.
Feng Nianzhi, however, sided with Lin Yu, looking earnestly at the young man from the Phoenix Clan, and said, "I believe what Brother Lin Yu said, so don't worry. When the time is right, I believe the High Priest will appear."
Hearing Feng Nianzhi say this, the young man from the Phoenix Clan was even more furious, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
"I'll leave the Phoenix Tomb to you to continue guarding it," Feng Nianzhi said, turning her head.
Before they knew it, the group had arrived at the entrance to the Phoenix Tomb.
As is customary, unless something happens, the young members of the Phoenix Clan cannot leave the Phoenix Tomb at will.
The young members of the Phoenix Clan naturally understood Feng Nianzhi's meaning. Upon hearing this, they lowered their heads and respectfully bowed to Feng Nianzhi: "Yes, Lord Phoenix!"
"I hope you can learn from this failure and work hard in your cultivation," Feng Nianzhi said earnestly.
These words, coming from his slightly chubby face, were indeed somewhat comical, but the young man from the Phoenix Clan had a serious expression on his face.
His battle with Lin Yu made him realize his shortcomings. His biggest problem now is that he relies too much on the demonic beasts he controls. What he needs to do now is to improve his own abilities.
"Yes, Lord Phoenix!"
Seeing his sincerity, Feng Nianzhi nodded.
