The Vermilion Bird and Phoenix Feud
Under Yan Shaozhe's guidance, Xu Xingyu arrived at a room where she saw Ma Xiaotao lying on a cold jade bed with her eyes closed. At the same time, a golden light enveloped Ma Xiaotao.
It seems that Mu En personally placed the seal on Ma Xiaotao.
After observing for a while, Xu Xingyu frowned and looked at Ma Xiaotao, because the situation was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao's face was pale, and her once healthy body seemed to have had its vitality drastically drained by someone.
A mere riot fueled by Evil Fire shouldn't have caused this situation!
Xu Xingyu turned to Yan Shaozhe with a puzzled look, to which Yan Shaozhe could only sigh helplessly and say, "It's my fault."
"You should remember that you and Xiaotao both received rewards for your performance in that Inner Court assessment, right?"
Xu Xingyu nodded and gestured for Yan Shaozhe to continue.
"The reward Xiaotao received that time was a feather from the legendary mythical beast Vermilion Bird, which one of the deans of Shrek obtained by chance a thousand years ago."
"With the help of that feather and your assistance in suppressing her Evil Fire, Xiaotao's cultivation level soared like lightning. Before the competition, she had already reached level seventy, only needing one more Soul Ring to officially become a Soul Saint. However, for some reason, this situation has now been caused by that Vermilion Bird feather."
"Although I only heard about it afterward, it's true that the Sword of Judgment used by Ji Juechen was an extraction Soul Tool that possessed both light and darkness elements, right?"
"At the moment Xiaotao was attacked by that sword, the forces of light and darkness eroded Xiaotao body, and the Yin-Yang Twin Fires within her merged with those forces of light and darkness."
"Finally, her Martial Soul mutated, and her Phoenix bloodline was completely strengthened. Her Yin-Yang Twin Fires also advanced to the Ultimate Yang Fire containing the power of light and the Ultimate Yin Fire containing the power of darkness, respectively. With the mutual balance of the two elements of light and darkness, Ma Xiaotao should theoretically not have any more problems."
"However, for some reason, that Vermilion Bird feather seemed to sense something and began to absorb Ma Xiaotao's Soul Power and Power of Life in large quantities. Now, even my teacher Dragon God Douluo, can only seal it to alleviate Xiaotao's symptoms."
"Your Spirit Contract Pagoda is an alliance with the Soul Beast Clan. Do you know why that Vermilion Bird feather would do such a thing? As an auspicious being, the Vermilion Bird shouldn't have done such a thing!"
Xu Xingyu Yan Shaozhe's question, and at the same time, he really wanted to punch him directly and give the Vermilion Bird feather to Ma Xiaotao, the holder of the Phoenix Martial Soul!
!
It would be strange if things didn't get out of hand! Don't be fooled by the fact that both are kings among bird-like Soul Beast, and don't believe those ignorant people who claim that the Vermilion Bird is the Phoenix. The relationship between the Vermilion Bird and the Phoenix Clan is as bad as it gets!
As the superior of the Vermilion Bird God in ancient times Xu Xingyu knew better than anyone that Vermilion Bird hated most were those arrogant, scruffy birds!
In her previous life, Xu Xingyu, who belonged to the Starry Dragon Emperor, had a very good relationship with the Vermilion Bird God, a Vassal God. In fact, to some extent, the Vermilion Bird God had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with the Starry Dragon Emperor.
The Vermilion Bird God is very cheerful and gentle. She is a subordinate who is younger than the Starry Dragon Emperor but always likes to act as an older sister. If you treat her well, she will treat you well; if you treat her badly, she will not give you a good look.
In some ways, could they be considered a breath of fresh air among the ancient bird and beast Beast Clan?
The Vermilion Bird God disliked the Phoenix Clan the most, not only because of their overly arrogant nature, but also because of some things they had tried to do to her.
After all, the Phoenix Clan ruled over birds at that time, and the Phoenix Clan was a strange race that was so arrogant that it believed that all things in the world revolved around it.
This is why the Phoenix Clan always challenges the Dragon Clan. They believe that the leader of the Beast Clan should be from their Phoenix Clan, and only their Phoenix Clan is worthy of it.
Unfortunately, their patriarch Phoenix God, also known as the First Phoenix of the World, could not overcome the obstacle of the Dragon God no matter how many times he challenged him.
This is why the Phoenix Clan has always been hostile to the Dragon Clan and the Dragon God, the ruler of the Dragon Clan; their pride does not allow them to be subservient to others.
The biggest reason why the pure-blooded Phoenix has been completely wiped out is this arrogance.
Because he had been defeated by the Dragon God many times, the Phoenix God harbored a deep grudge against the Dragon God and had been in seclusion cultivating in an attempt to surpass Dragon God.
However, the Dragon God possesses a Universal Uniqueness. Therefore, no matter how hard the Phoenix tries to cultivate within the Divine Realm where the Dragon God resides, it will never surpass the Dragon God.
Therefore, the Phoenix God could only shift its focus to combat power. If its combat power were strong enough, it might be able to challenge the Dragon God was of a higher level, and defeat him.
After all, the Universal Uniqueness is another matter. Therefore, theoretically, as long as one's foundation and combat power are above that of the Dragon God, there is still a chance of winning.
The moment the Vermilion Bird was born, the Phoenix God saw hope of defeating the Dragon God.
The Vermilion Bird God is actually very similar to the Starry Dragon Emperor. She can be said to be the Emperor Auspicious Beast of the bird-beast Beast Clan, a bird-beast Beast Clan formed by the condensation of the heaven and earth's fortune, and no less powerful than the Phoenix.
However, when the Vermilion Bird was born, the Phoenix did not intend to raise its own Emperor Auspicious Beast like the Dragon God did. Instead, it planned to devour it once the Vermilion Bird's cultivation was strong enough, so that it might be able to obtain power surpassing that of the Dragon God.
When the Vermilion Bird God had cultivated to the level of First-Level God, the Phoenix God felt that the time was ripe to devour him in order to evolve his own bloodline.
As it turned out, Vermilion Bird had already sensed the Phoenix Clan's strange attitude towards him, and immediately fled from the Phoenix Clan at all costs.
Not long after, rumors spread that the Vermilion Bird God had become a subordinate of the Starry Dragon Emperor, and one of his Four Sacred Beasts.
This enraged the Phoenix Clan, who then planned to snatch the Vermilion Bird back and devour it along with its soul.
This led to a full-scale war between the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan. In the end, the Dragon Clan emerged Dragon Clan, while the Phoenix Clan was completely wiped out.
Pure-blooded Phoenix no longer exist on the Douluo Continent, and even the Gold, Silver, and Blue Devil Bird Clan, which gave birth to Phoenix, has been eradicated.
Now, only some Soul Beast or Soul Master who possess the Phoenix Bloodline remain, such as the Emerald Swan Bi Ji, Ma Xiaotao with the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, and so on.
Therefore, Ma Xiaotao's condition is completely normal. Although the feathers left behind by the Vermilion Bird do not have sentience, they resonate with the aura of the Phoenix Clan.
Previously, Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix aura was too mottled, so the Vermilion Bird feathers were not given much attention. However, under the stimulation of the Sword of Judgment Ma Xiaotao's Martial Soul and bloodline underwent a positive mutation, causing her Phoenix Bloodline to become purer and purer.
This caused the resentment towards the Phoenix within the Vermilion Bird's feathers to be aroused, leading to the current situation.
