The Fire Crow Gourd and the Harm of "A Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix"
When the cultivators of the Ya Household heard that Ya Xingqu was going to send out the "Fire Crow Gourd", they all showed surprise, but in the end no one objected.
Then, Ya Xingqu took out a palm-sized Crimson Gourd from his Storage Bag and raised it to serve.
The "Crimson Gourd" grew larger as it faced the wind, transforming into a size of three zhang (approximately 10 meters) in the blink of an eye. It floated and suppressed the sky above everyone like a small mountain.
On the surface of that "Crimson Gourd", one can see a large number of red flames carved, like a sea of fire. Within that sea of fire, countless Fire Crow are carved, born, soaring, breathing flames, and even dying and merging into the sea of fire, transforming into a flame in the sea of fire, thus evolving the life of the Fire Crow from birth to death.
Gaa! Gaa gaa...
At this moment, the cawing of crows rang out as fire feathers appeared around the cultivators of the Ya Household Clan, transforming into numerous "Fire Crow Clone" using their Bloodline Divine Ability. These avatars flew directly towards the giant "Fire Crow Gourd" in the sky, entering the carved sea of fire and merging with the carved Fire Crow.
The next moment, the sea of fire carved on the "Fire Crow Gourd," and the numerous Fire Crow within it, seemed to come alive, transforming into a real "world of fire."
The entire "Fire Crow Gourd" was activated, its mouth opening to release a large amount of crimson-gold flames. The gourd then turned, directly facing the hundreds of "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" to the side.
Gaa! Gaa gaa...
Then, amidst the cawing of crows, the "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" turned and transformed into "Fire Crow Spirit Birds," flying directly into the gourd's mouth and into the "Fire Crow Gourd."
As these "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" flew in, the intense aura and power of the "Fire Crow Gourd" surged instantly, reaching the peak of the Third Tier.
"This is... Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact?"
Kong Wenxuan looked at the "Fire Crow Gourd" that was several meters tall in the sky, and was somewhat unsure whether to believe it.
He sensed a bloodline aura from this "Fire Crow Gourd" that was similar to the Crimson Plume Feather Fan Bloodline-Inherited Spirit Artifact " of their Kong Household. However, this " Fire Crow Gourd " was not Second Tier Spirit Artifact, but a Third Tier Treasure Artifact, so it should be considered a " Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact."
However, this Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact, the "Fire Crow Gourd," was not refined, controlled, and used by a single Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Ya Household. Instead, it required numerous Ya Household cultivators to refine, control, and use it together, and even needed to absorb a batch of "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers."
All these behaviors undoubtedly made him doubt his own judgment.
After all, judging from the case of their Kong Household's Bloodline-Inherited Spirit Artifact "Crimson Plume Feather Fan," even Third Tier "Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact" should only require a Foundation Establishment cultivator with the corresponding bloodline inheritance to refine and nurture it using their own Bloodline Divine Ability in order to use it.
Just like their Kong Household's Bloodline-Inherited Spirit Artifact, the "Crimson Plume Feather Fan," only one Lineage cultivator in the Late Qi Refining, who possesses the Bloodline Divine Ability of the Crimson Peacock Feather, is needed to refine, master, and use it.
There's no need for dozens of clansmen, including several Foundation Establishment cultivators, to refine, control, and use it as they do now.
"Is it because the requirements for Third Tier ' Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact ' are far higher than those for Second Tier ' Bloodline-Inherited Spirit Artifact '? It's beyond the capabilities of a Foundation Establishment cultivator to refine and control?"
"Or is it a special kind of ' Bloodline-Inherited Treasure Artifact,' a ' Lineage Treasure Artifact ' that requires multiple cultivators with the same bloodline to refine and use together?"
Kong Wenxuan considered various ideas and made various speculations, but he could not be certain about any of them.
Ultimately, even at their peak, the Kong Household was merely a Ninth-Grade True Spirit Lineage. They perished while attempting to become an Eighth-Grade True Spirit Lineage, so their understanding of Eighth-Grade True Spirit Lineage, Purple Mansion cultivators, and Third Tier treasures was extremely limited.
These kinds of knowledge and information were not passed down in the Lineage. As for the inheritance of the "Five Elements True Scripture" obtained from the "Five-Colored Divine Light," there was only the most basic inheritance, so it was naturally impossible for them to have these kinds of knowledge and information.
The Kong Household still has a long way to go.
Gaa! Gaa gaa...
At this moment, above the "Fire Crow True Spirit Star" that appeared in the sky, the Fire Crow True Spirit manifested, raised its head and spread its wings, emitting cries of crows, and a large amount of starlight fell down and merged into the "Fire Crow Gourd".
The next moment, hundreds of crimson-gold Fire Crow flew out of the gourd's mouth, seemingly equal to the number of the Fire Crow Dao Soldiers that had flown into the "Fire Crow Gourd".
However, after their journey through the "Fire Crow Gourd," the flames, aura, power, and combat strength of these "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" were greatly enhanced and increased, with most reaching the Second Tier tier. The leading Fire Crow was even directly promoted to the Third Tier tier!
Amidst the cawing of crows, the leading Third Tier Fire Crow, along with hundreds of second-tier Fire Crow, surged like a raging sea of fire towards the Cuckoo Demon Race were performing the forbidden technique "A Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix Paying Homage to the Phoenix."
Chirp! Ring...
At this moment, the Cuckoo Demon Race also used illusory colorful flames to burn away the "hundred birds" behind it. Its aura, power, and combat strength have also been raised and stabilized at the Third Tier level, and it even has a bit of the appearance of a "False Phoenix".
The next moment, two Third Tier flying birds, each several meters tall, began to fight in the sky.
The Cuckoo Demon Race possessed some of the power of a "False Phoenix," its body burning with illusory colorful flames, giving it a degree of suppression and immunity to attacks from various birds.
Kong Wenxuan could see that when the large swaths of crimson-gold flames spewed out by the Third Tier Fire Crow burned the Cuckoo Demon Race, many of the crimson-gold flames were swallowed up and annihilated by the illusory colorful flames on their bodies, so the damage to the Cuckoo Demon Race was limited.
In the end, the Third Tier Fire Crow had no choice but to swoop down and engage in direct hand-to-hand combat with the Cuckoo Demon Race.
Of course, the Third Tier Fire Crow also has its own advantages, namely the hundreds of second-tier Fire Crow following behind it.
Although these Second Tier Fire Crow were suppressed by the aura, power, and False Phoenix power emanating from the "False Phoenix" transformed from the Cuckoo Demon Race, and could only cause limited damage, their numbers were still considerable. Even if they pounced on the Cuckoo Demon Race and tore it apart or pecked it, they would still cause some minor damage.
In particular, when the "False Phoenix" transformed from the Cuckoo Demon Race kills the Second Tier Fire Crow that pounce on it, these killed second-tier Fire Crow will be reborn in the "Fire Crow Gourd," fly out again, and continue to rush into the battlefield, pouncing on the Cuckoo Demon Race and carrying out tearing and pecking attacks.
As the damage accumulated, the Third Tier "False Phoenix" transformed from the Cuckoo Demon Race gradually began to falter, with large amounts of feathers and plumes being torn off, flesh ripped apart, and blood splattering out.
Chirp! Ring! Jiujiu...
The "False Phoenix" transformed from the Cuckoo Demon Race fought and slaughtered each other in the air, emitting bursts of violent cries.
Kong Wenxuan gradually realized something was wrong. The "False Phoenix" transformed from the Cuckoo Demon Race seemed to be gradually losing its intelligence and wisdom, and was degenerating from Demon Race into Demon Beast!
"Is this the danger of the forbidden technique ' A Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix '?" Kong Wenxuan was startled and somewhat uncertain.
