God of Pets

The Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Cauldron is indeed a divine object for summoning ghosts. It had just been opened for a short time when a sound resembling a ghost howl echoed from Phoenix Mountain.

Then Chen Guan and the others saw a blood-red shadow appear in the sky, like a blood-red comet plummeting straight down from the sky, reaching the foot of the mountain in an instant.

Chen Guan saw clearly that it was a phoenix with feathers entirely crimson red. Because of its speed, its form appeared somewhat blurred, like a stream of flowing blood light rushing down from the mountaintop. Just as it was about to hit the ground, it suddenly drew an arc, extended a pair of blood-colored claws, and elegantly grabbed the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Cauldron buried underground by Chen Guan.

The Blood Phoenix moved with extreme agility and elegance. After grabbing the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Cauldron, it directly soared upwards, intending to break through the firmament and escape.

"Quick, make a move... there's no time... it's going to escape... it's taking the thing with it..." An Yiqi hurriedly tried to rush out to chase the Blood Phoenix.

"No need to hurry." Chen Guan was not anxious, watching the Blood Phoenix carry the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Cauldron into the sky, heading towards the top of Phoenix Mountain. He summoned the Ghost-Eyed Python, climbed onto its back, and let the team and An Yiqi come up as well.

Once the two were settled, Chen Guan instructed the Ghost-Eyed Python to climb towards Phoenix Mountain, not letting it reach full speed.

Though the Ghost-Eyed Python couldn't fly, its speed was not much slower than the Blood Phoenix. However, due to crawling up the mountain, it naturally wasn't as effortless as the flying Blood Phoenix, thus inherently slower.

"The Blood Phoenix is almost out of sight. Now we're afraid we'll lose both work and the soldier," An Yiqi worried.

"Don't worry, it can't escape, let it fly for a while," Chen Guan calmly replied.

"If it flies any longer, it'll vanish from sight," An Yiqi exclaimed helplessly.

Just then, the Blood Phoenix, on the verge of vanishing from view, suddenly flipped in the sky as if drunkenly, flying staggeringly, east for a bit and then west, not able to fly far, but instead dropping down further.

"The Soul King is taking effect," Chen Guan rejoiced internally, knowing this was the only way to kill the Blood Phoenix.

They had no powerful Shooter by their side, unable to take on such a fast-flying Secret Spirit.

He let the Ghost-Eyed Python speed up to chase the Blood Phoenix, then saw the Blood Phoenix flying erratically, like a headless fly, crashing into the mountainside trees.

Its feathers were incredibly tough and sharp, and when it rushed through the trees, it directly sliced through ancient towering trees, the roaring sound of falling trees resonating continuously.

To the team and An Yiqi, the Blood Phoenix seemed possessed, but Chen Guan could see clearly. The Soul King was entirely attached to the front of the Blood Phoenix, its eyes staring at the Blood Phoenix's eyes, sparkling with eerie light, a part of its body already immersed into the Blood Phoenix's body, akin to a devil possessing a human.

If it weren't for the inherently strong Spirituality of the Blood Phoenix, a weaker-spirituality creature would have already gotten its soul hooked and lost to the Soul King, with the soul drawn into the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Cauldron.

Due to its soul wrestling with the Soul King, the Blood Phoenix's control over its body weakened, flying erratically and crazily in the woods.

Sliced trees and leaves flew everywhere, and as the Ghost-Eyed Python charged over, it directly tossed aside those trees, forcefully clearing a path, rushing in front of the headless-like Blood Phoenix, raising its head and biting at it, pulling the Blood Phoenix down from the sky.

In the mouth of the Ghost-Eyed Python, the Blood Phoenix continued struggling violently, not entirely losing its ability to resist. Its feathers were truly sharp, even slicing the mouth of the Ghost-Eyed Python in multiple places, blood flowing from the corners of its mouth.

"What mighty Phoenix Feathers!" Chen Guan was surprised internally, but his hands and feet didn't stop, rushing upward with a Profound Nether Yin Fire Palm striking the Blood Phoenix, which suddenly emitted a faint blue light within.

On the other side, the Rouge Rabbit had also been summoned, wielding the Pig-killing Saber, slashing at the Blood Phoenix's neck.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The fine feathers on the Blood Phoenix's neck had high defensive strength, but couldn't withstand such chopping. After several strikes, the fine feathers were severed, and its neck was chopped off.

Seeing the Blood Phoenix die an untimely death, Chen Guan opened his bag for a glance, seeing Zhao Cai weakly curled inside sleeping, knowing it couldn't be relied upon this time.

Without Zhao Cai's ability, the Blood Phoenix wasn't Petified, nor did it reveal Secret Technique or Secret Skill.

The Rouge Rabbit was happy, using the saber to absorb all the Blood Phoenix's essence blood. For it, this was a great nourishment.

Though nothing was revealed, the Phoenix Feathers covering the Blood Phoenix's body were inherently valuable, its flesh also a great nourishment, which could be used for refining medicine or sold for a good price.

The three first plucked the Phoenix Feathers one by one, the longest tail feather being over two meters long, incredibly flexible and extremely sharp.

This thing could be used directly as weapons like swords without processing.

There were also two slightly shorter tail feathers over two meters long, and some others slightly shorter tail and wing feathers were over one meter long, totaling more than thirty feathers.

Shorter feathers could be used as daggers or short knives, with a more considerable quantity.

Besides, there were three somewhat special feathers. While other Phoenix Feathers were blood red, these three were over a foot long and more vivid in color, a purplish-red hue, appearing more tightly packed and more flexible.

"Choose your favorites first, then keep the rest, sell them later, and split the money," Chen Guan said to the team and An Yiqi.

"Captain, I don't want money, just these two Phoenix Feathers to replace the previous Steel-cutting Saber; this stuff is far better than Steel-cutting Saber," An Yiqi called out excitedly, holding the two over two meters long tail feathers.

The Phoenix Feathers are relatively light but much longer than typical sabers, with no excessive weight, and attack range is far-reaching and handy, sharp enough to resolve An Yiqi's dual-weilding short-range attack issue immediately.

Chen Guan initially thought the team would choose the longest tail feather, considering he was skilled in Riding Skill, battling atop pets, and naturally needed a longer weapon.

But unexpectedly, the team only selected a three-foot-long wing feather, not choosing the longer one.

"Don't want the long one? I don't use it; you can have it for yourself," Chen Guan wasn't stingy towards those who lived and fought alongside him.

"I still prefer using a spear; having a backup battle saber is enough," the team explained.

Chen Guan nodded, wrapping the remaining Phoenix Feathers with Snake Shedding, keeping the three special feathers.

The feathers are about two feet long, with the root part serving as a handle. But due to its sharpness, it's inconvenient to carry, so Chen Guan planned to use the Snake Shedding from the Ghost-Eyed Python to make a sheath for storing these three Phoenix Feathers.
