Chapter 487: Chapter 363: Phoenix Heritage_2



Moreover, listening to them, it seems that over the past trillion years, the power within this perilous place hasn't dissipated, but has continued to converge here.

That makes it even more intriguing.

The powers of ice and fire are inherently opposing forces, just like life and death, yin and yang, yet from what they're saying, these two forces have perfectly merged here!

Li Cheng thought about it and looked at the two, "The two of you are guarding this place, probably to comprehend this power, right?"

The Two Venerables of Young and Old shared a commonality with the ice and fire here, one alive and one dead. If they could unravel its mysteries, perhaps their powers could complement each other and fuse perfectly into the Power of Life and Death.

The Two Venerables of Young and Old both smiled and said in unison, "Exactly!"

"How about we go in together and check it out?" Li Cheng suggested.

Contrary to Li Cheng's expectations, the two of them shook their heads without hesitation. The youthful venerable said, "We simply don't have the strength to resist the tide of ice and fire. If we encounter it, we probably won't even have a chance to escape."

Li Cheng understood, "So you're saying, the person who asked for help earlier, there's no chance they survived?"

The youthful venerable nodded, "That's for certain. Five million years ago, four Divine Emperors fell in there at once. The girl who was swept in just now is merely at the True God Realm in her cultivation, she couldn't possibly have had a chance to survive."

Venerable Sou sighed sadly, "That girl had a promising talent, what a pity!"

Li Cheng roughly understood; when the girl was swept in, she must have activated the defensive measures within the Demon Suppression Order, but to no avail. It had only simultaneously activated the distress signal.

Li Cheng glanced at the entrance tunnel, originally wanting to go check it out, but considering that even four Divine Emperors had perished there, he decided against it after all.

Those were real Divine Emperors, not Pseudo Divine Emperors, and even they couldn't survive together, so he definitely shouldn't join the crowd.

"In that case, I shall take my leave!" Li Cheng said, clasping his hands together in a fist.

The Two Venerables of Young and Old hurriedly returned the gesture, with the youthful venerable saying, "That girl is also a Demon-suppressing Envoy. We must report this matter to the Demon-suppressing Department. Elder Li, since you are leaving, could you help report this en route?"

Li Cheng nodded, "No problem!"

The youthful venerable hastily conjured a light screen, "It was this girl. Elder Li, please remember her face and hand it over to the Demon-suppressing Department when you arrive."

When Li Cheng looked at the light screen, he was taken aback, "Kong Lianqing! What is she doing here?"

This was something Li Cheng had not expected at all. The one swept away by the tide of ice and fire turned out to be Kong Lianqing!

Li Cheng furrowed his brows. Previously, Kong Linfeng and Xiao Changting had said that Kong Lianqing had gone to the south, who would have thought that she had traveled so far.

"Oh? Elder Li knows this girl?" the youthful venerable asked.

Li Cheng nodded, turned, and walked towards the entrance, "I have to go check it out!"

Since Kong Lianqing was the one swept away, he absolutely had to go look for her.

If she's alive, I must see her in person, if she's dead, I must see her soul.

Having known her for so many years, Kong Lianqing was one of the few friends Li Cheng had, how could he not go in to search for her?

As for the tide of ice and fire, perhaps he could try relying on the Nine Dragons Devouring Sky Tripod and the Extinguishing Divine Array.

Amidst the astonished gazes of many, Li Cheng stepped into the tunnel, his figure disappearing from everyone's sight.

The tunnel still contained the essence of heat and cold, a stark sensation of ice and fire.

Walking along the tunnel for a while, Li Cheng emerged into a vast expanse of ice and snow.

Here, the cold wind howled, hurling snow into the air, somewhat similar to the conditions outside the territory of the Five Elements Elf Tribe in the Kunlun Realm.

Li Cheng released his Divine Sense but found its reach severely suppressed, limited to exploring just ten thousand miles, and within this range, it was all snow and ice.

"A place with such strong suppression is rare; the secrets of Falling Phoenix Mountain are probably not small," Li Cheng said to himself as he soared into the air.

This world was hidden within an encompassing ring of mountains ten miles in diameter, yet inside it was vast. From the air, for hundreds of thousands of miles, everything was blanketed in white, the further regions appearing indistinct.

Li Cheng frowned, "The tide of ice and fire? Why are there no signs of it after coming in?"

If the eruption of the tide of ice and fire was so formidable that even Divine Emperors could hardly withstand it, why hadn't it damaged the seemingly endless snowy landscape?

After a short contemplation, Li Cheng believed in the theory that the forces of ice and fire had merged perfectly; only that would leave the snowy scenery undisturbed.

Taking out the Demon Suppression Order, Li Cheng's powerful Divine Soul Strength surged as he continued to infer.

Before long, Li Cheng made a discovery and quickly began to race forward with swift strides.

After traveling tens of millions of miles, Li Cheng saw a red line become visible in the distance. As he drew closer, he realized it wasn't a line at all, but an area where the snowy terrain had turned red!

At the boundary between the snow and red land, the snowy area showed no signs of melting, even though the red land was extremely hot!

Li Cheng once again soared into the air and observed his surroundings, and in his mind inevitably appeared the shape of a Tai Chi Diagram.

This dangerous area is probably arranged just like the Tai Chi Diagram!

There must be a Yang Eye filled with scorching power in the snowfields behind, while ahead in the redlands, there must be a Yin Eye filled with ice-cold power.

It was the same situation at the Zhongnan Yin-Yang Ridge in the Kunlun Realm, but that place could not compare to the vastness here.

"Falling Phoenix Mountain is like a Tai Chi Diagram. Since the ice and fire tides erupted and swept Kong Lianqing into it, she must be inside the Yin and Yang Eyes!"

Li Cheng turned back, searching for the Yang Eye.

After half a day, Li Cheng finally found a circular lake of magma amidst the icy snowy land.

The magma lake was rich in the Rule of Fire, with terrifying Divine Fire occasionally bursting from the magma.

Surprisingly, around the lake had sprouted numerous divine herbs of the sixth and seventh level, and there were plenty of Law Crystal Stones as well!

Of course, there were also many skeletons!

Over the years, countless powerful beings had perished here, their bones almost entirely incinerated to ash. Any that remained must have belonged to the exceptionally powerful, and likely from recent years.

Li Cheng intended to protect his body with the Rule of Fire, but after some thought, he activated the Extinguishing Divine Array instead, enveloping himself with it as he descended into the magma lake.

As he plummeted ten thousand meters, intense Divine Power Fluctuations came from below.

"Almost there!"

Li Cheng focused and stayed alert, continuing his descent, and finally, an astonishing scene appeared below.

The bottom of this lake had been propped open by formidable Divine Power, forming a space at the lakebed, and the source of these Divine Power Fluctuations was a massive hundred-zhang long ... chicken skeleton!

It should be said, half a skeleton!

It was like a chicken skeleton split in two, and only one half was here!

At the moment, beneath the skeleton, Kong Lianqing was sitting cross-legged, with golden power flowing from the skeleton and continuously pouring into her body!

The golden power's fluctuations were not the slightest bit weaker than those of a Divine Emperor, indicating that Kong Lianqing had triggered an inheritance inside the chicken skeleton and was absorbing it.

"A blessing in disguise? However, this is probably not a chicken, but some kind of Divine Beast," thought Li Cheng to himself.

After sensing more carefully, Li Cheng discovered that there was a strong space fluctuation at the cut of the chicken skeleton, pointing off into the distance, most likely towards the Yin Eye.

Clearly, after Kong Lianqing absorbed this inheritance, she would probably be transported by that spatial fluctuation to the Yin Eye.

"Falling Phoenix Mountain, where the phoenix has fallen? Could this be a phoenix's skeleton?" Li Cheng suddenly thought.

However, what puzzled Li Cheng was, if it were a phoenix's inheritance, why would it allow Kong Lianqing, a human, to accept it?

Although the Divine Realm had many hybrids of the Monster Race and the Human Tribe, such mixed blood often led to impure bloodlines, making it difficult to achieve great things.

Could it be that Kong Lianqing carries phoenix bloodline?

Since arriving in the Divine Realm, Li Cheng had even visited the Dragon Clan but had yet to see a phoenix, nor did he know where the phoenix clan was hiding.

"It looks like your inheritance might take many years to complete. Good luck, and take care!"

Without worrying whether Kong Lianqing could hear him or not, Li Cheng said his piece and left.

Since Kong Lianqing was safe and had gained a great benefit, he could rest easy.

The next time they met, Kong Lianqing would probably be like a phoenix reborn from ashes, soaring to the sky.

Rushing toward the entrance, it wasn't long before Li Cheng left the dangerous area.

"Eh? You're out so soon? Elder Li, what was the situation inside?" The Two Venerables of Young and Old immediately came to meet him.

They didn't ask about Kong Lianqing; after all, they assumed she had perished.

Li Cheng shook his head, sighing, "I found one of her belongings..."

Seeing that Li Cheng did not elaborate, Venerable Sou sighed, "Elder Li, please accept my condolences!"

There was obviously no need to reveal the fact that Kong Lianqing was alive to them, to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Li Cheng looked towards the entrance, "There are countless bones inside, who knows how many have perished there."

As he spoke, Li Cheng rose into the air, "Gentlemen, I shall take my leave."

The Two Venerables of Young and Old watched as Li Cheng departed, with Venerable Sou saying, "The aura he inadvertently revealed is extremely terrifying, Venerable Tong, should we follow him?"
