Water-Attribute Barrier

"Boom..." "Boom..." "Boom..."

The fiery red phoenix flames rained down on the barrier relentlessly, causing ripples to spread across it.

Upon seeing this, both the Fallen Black Phoenix and He Buxian's eyes lit up, feeling as if they had seen a glimmer of hope in breaking free from the barrier.

The Phoenix True Fire of Fengchang Pavilion may not be the strongest in terms of power, but its survivability is unparalleled.

It can burn continuously as long as it comes into contact with flammable material.

The crack not far away is the best evidence; the Phoenix True Fire had only fallen onto the ground and had already burned for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The Fallen Black Phoenix had a good understanding of barriers, and because of this, he knew that the simplest and most direct way to break a barrier was to bombard it with power exceeding that of the barrier itself.

And the flames of Fengchang Pavilion happen to have the attribute of being inexhaustible.

In other words, given enough time, the flames will actually burn a hole in the barrier!

Just when He Buxian and the Fallen Black Phoenix thought the Fengchang Pavilion plan had a chance, the final result was quite disappointing for them.

Fengchang Pavilion failed.

The Phoenix True Fire clearly landed on the barrier, and ripples spread across it, indicating that everything was developing in a way that was favorable to them.

However, after the ripples spread out, the barrier remained unchanged, still motionless, which greatly surprised He Buxian and the Fallen Black Phoenix.

He Buxian and the Fallen Black Phoenix were both very surprised by this result, but Feng Changge, who truly unleashed the Phoenix True Fire, was the one who could accept it the most.

After all, from the very beginning, his actions were merely an act of defiance, and he never considered that he could actually break the seal.

"What happened?!" He Buxian couldn't help but ask.

He had just witnessed the immense power of the Phoenix Pavilion's primordial fire; how could it not even break through this barrier?

Feng Changge was surprised that these two people actually had hope for his actions. Although he was still completely confused, he could only shake his head.

He himself didn't know why, but after the primordial fire landed on that barrier, it was as if it encountered something that directly dissolved the power of his primordial fire.

In the end, Feng Changge could only explain that his own thinking was too naive; how could this barrier be something that could be broken so easily?

The Fallen Black Phoenix remained silent for a long while. As someone who was familiar with both sealing techniques and Phoenix True Fire, he probably knew the reason.

"Have you noticed that the Phoenix True Fire can ignite directly upon contact with things like the earth, and it won't go out?"

He Buxian nodded upon hearing this. He had naturally seen this point, which confirmed that the Phoenix True Fire of Fengchang Pavilion possessed extremely powerful strength.

"But when we encountered that barrier, its power was merely neutralized; nothing changed. The Phoenix True Fire did not continue to burn."

Upon hearing these words, He Buxian seemed to realize something and suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

The Fallen Black Phoenix knew that He Buxian probably understood what she meant, but Feng Changge was still completely confused.

Seeing this, the Fallen Black Phoenix shook its head helplessly and said, "Have you forgotten? What form did those fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone take? Water Droplets! Those are water-attribute elements."

"The humanoid form of the Heaven-Mending Fragment has always been formed through the transformation of water elements. I've been wondering if this Heaven-Mending Fragment absorbed some water-attribute magic in the Netherworld Immortal Realm, or if it was influenced by its original attribute and assimilated some water-attribute magic."

"The primordial flame within Feng Changge's body is the most powerful and purest flame in the world. Of course, since he is not the true Lord of the Phoenix, it can only be said that his flame is only close to that level."

"In short, this flame is already an extremely powerful fire-attribute spell in this world, but even so, the barrier remains unmoved. What does this mean? It can only mean that the barrier's own attributes are mutually restraining with the flame."

"Considering the form and appearance of the Heaven-Mending Fragment itself, it's not hard to guess that perhaps, intentionally or unintentionally, the Heaven-Mending Fragment left a portion of water-attribute magic within the barrier."

"Moreover, this isn't ordinary water; it's a special power extracted from the fragments of the Heaven-Mending Fragment. That's why it can't be neutralized by the Phoenix True Fire."

The Fallen Black Phoenix analyzed the situation seriously.

He Buxian was now filled with regret. He had placed his hopes on Feng Changge after seeing him make a move, but he hadn't expected it to end like this.

For a moment, He Buxian felt extremely guilty.

"If I had known, I shouldn't have rushed in so directly in the first place. I should have saved some of my Source Arts power; it might have come in handy later."

Upon hearing He Buxian's words of desolation, the Fallen Black Phoenix was momentarily speechless.

She knew that this kid was getting stuck on a rut again, and he might already be thinking about things like, "Why can a mere fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone control me so completely? Why am I so weak?"

He Buxian leaned against the rock, feeling that even breathing had become much more difficult.

He could sense that the spiritual energy he was currently consuming was already his most fundamental spiritual energy.

If this continues, this world will eventually absorb all their power.

In other words, although they ultimately did not submit to the dark green insects, they were still absorbed by this world.

"Get rid of you two! This space is very strange. Even if your spiritual energy is exhausted, it will continue to absorb your life force. Continuing to waste our time like this is definitely not a good idea!" He Buxian reminded the other two.

Perhaps the two of them still have some remaining power, and they haven't reached the point where their life force has been absorbed yet, so they mistakenly believe that it will end once their spiritual power is completely absorbed.

Upon hearing this, the Fallen Black Phoenix nodded. In fact, his condition was already similar to He Buxian's, so how could he not understand the meaning behind He Buxian's words?

However, compared to He Buxian's condition, the Fallen Black Phoenix's condition is slightly better.

He propped himself up and slowly walked towards the direction of the barrier.

The fallen black phoenix placed its hand on the barrier, carefully sensing the patterns within it.
