Two Matters
For ordinary people, time is almost as precious as life itself.
This remains true even for the Cultivation Realm.
But in the Immortal Realm, it is the least valuable thing.
Whether it's a hundred years or a thousand years, it's just a blink of an eye on the time scale of the Immortal Realm.
This situation will not change due to individual will.
It's as if, in the eyes of the Good Corpse, the return of the Original Self is just a blink of an eye, but in reality, it's a thousand years in a single glance.
In the past thousand years, two events have occurred that involved Yi Xuan.
Firstly, the Great Sage's battle on the Human-Demon Battlefield has finally come to an end.
This news was brought back by Peng Tianlin five hundred years ago.
The Great Sage War of the Monkey Kings lasted for a full five hundred years.
The result, however, is hard to describe!
In short, Human Clan has lost!
Initially, without the threat of the Human Clan army, the Great Sage of Longevity of Immortality and the Phoenix Ancestor fought to a standstill.
However, without the blessing of Echo of Life, over time, the Great Sage of Longevity will inevitably show signs of decline.
The Human Clan Great Sage, who were focused on the battlefield, had no choice but to intervene.
First, the Great Sage Biqing joined the battle.
The Water Principle he possessed was inherently incompatible with the Phoenix Ancestor, and this was compounded by the fact that he was Great Sage of Longevity.
The two of them instantly suppressed Phoenix Ancestor completely.
However, this will create new problems.
The reason why the other Great Sage of the Demon Race did not take action was to guard against the Great Sage of the Human Clan.
Seeing that the Great Sage Biqing had joined, the Demon Race naturally did not want to fall behind.
Then another Great Sage descended and forcibly reversed the tilted scales.
Thus began a back-and-forth tactic of adding fuel to the fire.
The fight continued until both sides had four Great Sages.
The eight Great Sage unleashed their divine power in the void, shattering the entire void into pieces.
Countless galaxies, as fragile as mosquitoes, vanished in droves under their attack.
In this thrilling battle, the Great Sage displayed unparalleled power and superb combat skills to the entire universe.
The attack is as powerful as a thunderbolt, capable of easily tearing through the void and destroying galaxies.
Its defenses are impregnable, capable of withstanding even the most ferocious attacks from the enemy.
In their battle, the void was torn apart, galaxies were destroyed, and the entire universe was plunged into chaos.
The application of the Power of Principle was also fully demonstrated in this battle.
Compared to these Great Sages, the Supreme Powerhouse Beings' application of the Power of Principle is as immature as an infant's.
At this moment, the Supreme Powerhouse watching from the sidelines realized how laughable their battle was in the eyes of the Great Sage.
This battle lasted for a full five hundred years.
The final result was that the Demon Race sacrificed two Great Sages to gain the opportunity to severely injure the Great Sage of Longevity.
After being severely injured, the Great Sage of Longevity lost only one-tenth of his strength, almost falling back to his Supreme Powerhouse.
Left with no other choice, the other Human Clan Great Sage could only protect Longevity and retreat.
But the Demon Race relentlessly pursued them.
In the end, all the Great Sage of the Human Clan descended and activated the power of the Pillar of Creation, barely managing to stop the Demon Race's offensive.
Seeing that their chance had been lost, the twelve Great Sage Demon Race had no choice but to retreat.
But the Demon Race army followed closely behind, beginning a new round of conquest.
The Human Clan army also decisively engaged in battle.
It appears that the situation on both sides has changed.
But everyone knows that the situation for the Human Clan has become even more dire.
The severe injury to the Great Sage of Longevity has greatly increased the odds of victory on the side of the Demon Race.
As for the other thing, Xingtian has finally awakened.
After completely absorbing the Great Sage's Essence Blood, Xingtian actually advanced directly to the Supreme Powerhouse.
Although Phoenix Ancestor had anticipated this, his eyes were still filled with amazement when Xingtian truly advanced to the Supreme Powerhouse.
For no other reason than that Xingtian's bloodline was too complex.
Even after absorbing the Great Sage's Essence Blood.
However, in Phoenix Ancestor's opinion, Xingtian's probability of advancing to the Supreme Powerhouse is less than one percent.
And the actual situation was indeed as Phoenix Ancestor had predicted.
Xingtian discovered this during the process of absorbing Essence Blood.
Fortunately, Xingtian is no ordinary Demon Race.
His body possesses a unique strength that other Demon Race lack: Gene Furnace.
For the Demon Race, the complexity of their bloodlines is indeed an unsolvable problem.
Even if one absorbs the blood of a high-level Demon Race, it can only enhance one's bloodline to a certain extent; ultimately, there will still be a limit.
But for Xingtian, who possesses the Gene Furnace, what bloodline? He can change it at will.
And who says mixed bloodlines are bad?
Xingtian was able to get to where he is today because of the mixing of his bloodlines.
However, Xingtian's hybrid approach involved taking the essence and discarding the dross.
Therefore, with the help of the Gene Furnace, Xingtian did not replace his own genes with the Phoenix gene.
Instead, they chose to fuse the Phoenix gene with the genes in their bodies.
This ultimately resulted in a unique gene belonging solely to Xingtian.
With the genetic issue resolved, Xingtian also elevated his cultivation level to its peak by absorbing the power of the Great Sage's Essence Blood.
But he could only remain at the Peak of the Ninth Layer.
Of the Three Flowers Atop the Head, one has yet to transform into a golden lotus.
It's clear that their understanding of the Principle of Fire is insufficient.
Even after absorbing the Essence Blood of the Phoenix Ancestor, which was imbued with the Principle of Fire, it was still not enough.
And for that, we have to thank the Original Self.
During the previous modification of Xingtian's body, the Original Self not only enhanced Xingtian's physique, but also extracted the Principle of Fire from the Eternal Flame and injected it into the Gene Furnace.
Once Xingtian's strength reaches the Peak of the Ninth Layer, these Principle of Fire will be directly implanted, just like data transmission.
Given enough time to comprehend it, advancing to the Supreme Powerhouse is only a matter of time.
As Xingtian integrated the Phoenix gene into himself, his comprehension of the Principle of Fire experienced an explosive increase.
This gave him a huge boost as he advanced to the Supreme Powerhouse round.
As Xingtian advanced, Feng Lie soon woke up as well, and unsurprisingly, also advanced to the Supreme Powerhouse.
Upon learning this news, Feng Jiu immediately announced to the entire Demon Race that the two had advanced to the Supreme Powerhouse level and appointed them as new elders of the Phoenix Clan.
Xingtian's status rose rapidly, and when he returned to the Demon Race army, he entered the core leadership.
What puzzled him was that only Feng Jiu went back with him.
Feng Lie, however, has disappeared.
As Xingtian awoke, he immediately learned of the return of the Original Self.
And he asked the Original Self whether he should return to the Human Clan.
However, the order given by the Original Self was to continue to lie in wait among the Demon Race, awaiting the right opportunity.
Helpless, Xingtian had no choice but to remain among the Demon Race army and wreak havoc on the battlefield against the Human Clan.
Even though this has been done for thousands of years, it has become second nature.
But whenever Xingtian looked at the blood in his hands and the flesh and blood he swallowed, he couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed.
