Chapter 1215: Blood Phoenix
"Really?" Ling Feng was ecstatic.
"I'm your senior sister, would I deceive you?" Xuanyuan Xia rolled her eyes and said, "Besides, I already told you, the drop of Phoenix Essence Blood in the central area is the purest Phoenix Essence Blood, the one Liang Hai took has quite a lot of impurities."
"That's good, that's good!" Ling Feng kept muttering; he felt like he had gone from Paradise to Hell, and then from Hell to Paradise again. If his heart wasn't so robust, he might have passed out by now.
Xuanyuan Xia glanced at Liang Hai, then said to Ling Feng, "Let's go, let's keep moving forward, and try to reach the central area before dark today, so we can quickly collect that drop of Phoenix Essence Blood."
While Liang Hai, who was affected by the Soul Searching Technique, followed behind Ling Feng and the others in a daze. According to Xuanyuan Xia, a puppet affected by the Soul Searching Technique is almost a one-time consumable. With Liang Hai's cultivation in the God Realm, he could still be a decent pawn at a critical moment.
Back with the main group, Ling Feng didn't talk about what had just happened. Everyone was curious about Liang Hai, who was following Ling Feng, especially Les the Saint Heir, who smelled an extremely evil aura on Liang Hai, which excited Les to the point of trembling.
The reason he brought people from the Dark Church to Atlantis was precisely for the hidden Dark Force here.
The group pressed forward, crossed the peak, and finally arrived at the center of the Red Canyon.
"Is this the real appearance of the Red Canyon?" Standing on the peak, everyone couldn't help but gasp as they looked at the scene in the central area.
Because in the central area of the Red Canyon, fierce Blazing Fire was burning, and from above the flames, the phoenix's call sounded intermittently.
The weakest among the group, the Bright Saintess, felt almost overwhelmed by the sound of the phoenix. If not for the Knight of Light spreading some pressure, she might have perished there.
"Just the sound of the phoenix carries such power!" Ling Feng was somewhat surprised, knowing that the phoenix had already perished, with only a drop of Phoenix Essence Blood remaining here.
"The true Phoenix Essence Blood contains the Divine Sense of the phoenix!" Xuanyuan Xia said beside Ling Feng, "Liang Hai couldn't obtain this drop of Phoenix Essence Blood because his identity doomed him to fail!"
"What should we do now?" Ling Feng swallowed, asking anxiously.
Xuanyuan Xia shook her head and said, "I originally intended to help you forcibly collect the Phoenix Essence Blood, but after performing the Soul Searching Technique, my body is too weak to use my cultivation in the Sea of Gods Realm. So... this matter can only depend on you!"
Ling Feng frowned, depend on himself? The key is that he didn't know how to get close to the Phoenix Essence Blood!
Suddenly, Ling Feng remembered the Phoenix Feather that the Male Vermilion Bird transformed into before dying. He took out the Phoenix Feather from his bosom, shining with gentle rays of light, seemingly carrying a warmth.
"Wait here for me, I'll give it a try!" Ling Feng said solemnly.
"Ling Feng brother, I believe in you!" Tama said, raising a small fist.
"Ling Feng..." The Bright Saintess hesitated, "Be careful."
Ling Feng merely smiled and then rushed forward with the Phoenix Feather.
"Miss Xuanyuan, is Ling Feng really okay?" the Bright Saintess couldn't resist asking.
Although she didn't like Xuanyuan Xia, she couldn't deny that Xuanyuan Xia was the strongest among them!
"This is Ling Feng's obsession and his responsibility!" Xuanyuan Xia said casually, "Moreover, it's Ling Feng's opportunity. The future is uncertain, all we can do is believe in him."
Holding the Phoenix Feather, Ling Feng charged towards the fiercely burning central area like a lightning bolt.
As Ling Feng stepped onto the land, a wave of blazing fire swept towards him.
Ling Feng instinctively wanted to retreat, but the Phoenix Feather quickly formed a huge Protective Barrier, encasing him, allowing the flames to merely pass by him without causing any harm.
"Truly marvelous!" Ling Feng's eyes revealed a hint of delight, with the Phoenix Feather, he could safely reach the Phoenix Essence Blood.
Thus, under the protection of the Phoenix Feather, Ling Feng walked step by step towards the central area.
The deeper he went, the stronger the flames became, and the air grew hotter! Though separated by the barrier, Ling Feng could still sense the destructive power of the flames around him.
Without the Phoenix Feather, Ling Feng couldn't guarantee he would survive even a few breaths here.
"The name of the phoenix, truly not without reason!" Ling Feng murmured.
Finally, Ling Feng reached the central position and saw from a distance a drop of blood, the size of a pigeon's egg, floating mid-air. More amazingly, the blood was continuously contracting, as if breathing.
"Is this the Phoenix Essence Blood? That drop is the size of a pigeon's egg? That's too unlikely!" Ling Feng initially thought a drop should be tiny, yet everything before him exceeded his expectations.
"No matter, regardless of its size, I will obtain it!" Ling Feng was about to grab the Phoenix Essence Blood when suddenly there was a shocking change.
The cluster of Phoenix Essence Blood suddenly exploded, countless flames surged towards the exploded blood, the immense Vital Energy and overwhelming power frightened Ling Feng.
Such potent Vital Energy, if uncontrolled, even with the Phoenix Feather, Ling Feng might not survive the explosion!
Fortunately, the flames rushed into the Phoenix Essence Blood without causing any unstable explosion. Instead, the cluster of Phoenix Essence Blood expanded rapidly, soon forming a giant Blood Phoenix.
The Blood Phoenix looked up and let out a loud cry, then its eyes fixed intensely on Ling Feng and the Phoenix Feather in his hand.
The immense pressure nearly crushed Ling Feng. With a bitter smile, he reached out his hand, "This Phoenix Feather, do you want it? If you do, I'll give it to you!"
Suddenly, the Blood Phoenix rushed toward Ling Feng, and the Phoenix Feather in his hand trembled violently before breaking free and flying toward the Blood Phoenix.
The Phoenix Feather burrowed into the Blood Phoenix's body, and its aura grew even stronger.
"It's over, I'm really going to die this time!" Just then, thoughts of despair crossed Ling Feng's mind.
However, at this moment, the Dragon God Technique within Ling Feng began operating rapidly, completely out of his control, as if drawn by the Blood Phoenix.
