Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Hong’s figure flashed and flew into the planet like a meteor.
The ancient planet housed a plethora of Opportunities of Fortune.
Chu Hong searched the planet and found some that boosted her strength, but they were not major improvements.
She was one step shy of reaching the level of a Prodigy.
“I must awaken my bloodline for the seventh time. Only then I can rival the Prodigies, and only then I can catch up to my brother,” Chu Hong murmured.
!!
She had heard of Chu Kuangren’s arrival at the Interstellar Arena.
The news of him killing a bunch of sky-prides, including several Prodigies, spread like wildfire, and it made her anxious.
Since her brother was getting stronger, she, too, must get stronger, or she would not be fit as a follower.
She did not want to fall behind too much. At least, she should be strong enough to be by his side.
With that in mind, Chu Hong continued searching for Opportunities of Fortune on the planet.
She followed the resonance she felt from her bloodline and headed in a certain direction.
The resonance guided her to a mountain valley.
Over there, her Godly Phoenix’s bloodline reacted like never before as though it was yearning for something it had long desired.
“There must be a huge Opportunity of Fortune here waiting for me,” Chu Hong murmured.
The mountain valley was blanketed with restriction seals, and the energy that aroused her bloodline lay deep in the valley.
“You’re up.”
Chu Hong took a golden bell out of her sleeve.
The bell was one of the treasures she acquired during her training in the Interstellar Arena — the Seal-Breaking Bell.
As its name suggested, it was used especially to break restriction seals. Little it might look, but it was actually an Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon that one could only dream of.
Chu Hong channeled her Immortal’s Core and infused it into the bell.
The bell moved, releasing a pleasant chime and a surge of mystical energy fluctuation into the air that crashed on the restriction seals like a tidal wave.
Bang! Bang!
The entire mountain valley rumbled.
Countless restriction seals in the void broke one after another under the bell’s energy fluctuation.
Then, a tower built using countless Immortal Crystals started to emerge in the deepest part of the valley.
The palace was surrounded by intertwining Daoist patterns, glowing treasures, and Immortal Herbs everywhere.
As though the palace had sensed Chu Hong’s arrival, a pillar of golden-red fire shot up into the sky and transformed into a beautiful Godly Phoenix.
The Godly Phoenix danced along the appearance of the Daoist patterns. Its fiery brilliance shrouded the sky, and its cry trembled heaven and earth.
“It really is the great one from the Divine Phoenix Tribe! This energy presence… The great one must have gone through at least eight times of bloodline awakening!”
Excited, Chu Hong’s figure flashed and flew toward the palace. However, she was attacked by a blast of Phoenix Flame as she approached.
The Phoenix Flame resisted her presence as if it was keeping her away from the palace.
“Oh? Is this the trial left behind by the great one? Great. Let me have a go!”
A strong determination lit up in her eyes, and a set of reddish gold armor appeared on her body.
The armor was also a rare Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon — the treasure Chu Kuangren acquired from the Jade Pool.
He had multiple pieces of female-styled armor, so he gave one each to the Jade Pool Maiden Sage, Lan Yu, and Chu Hong.
With the aid of the armor, Chu Hong charged into the Phoenix Flame.
However, as she approached the palace, the Phoenix Flame grew stronger. Even with the help of the Arch Gilded Immortal Weapon, she was still pressured by the flame.
“No! If this continues, I won’t be able to get the Opportunity of Fortune.”
Chu Hong got anxious as she tried to break through the Phoenix Flame.
Still, she forced herself to calm down and pondered the situation for a solution.
Suddenly, she thought of a possible solution.
“This is the Phoenix Flame, and I’m a Godly Phoenix. Can I try to control it instead?”
She executed her thought immediately and mobilized her Immortal’s Core. She took in a sliver of Phoenix Flame, suppressed it, and tried to control it.
The Phoenix Flame was left behind by an Embodier Godly Phoenix, so its power was a lot stronger than her own.
Even though it was just a sliver of it, Chu Hong had a difficult time trying to control it. As such, she had to muster all her strength.
“I did it!”
After successfully controlling the sliver of flame, the immense Phoenix Flame that tried to devour her looked less scary.
Now, the flame even felt familiar.
A quick thought later, she decided to absorb more flame and control it.
She got better after a few tries and even started to gain insights into the flame. With that, she decided to withdraw her armor and transform it into her true form to tackle the flame.
Again, the Phoenix Flame tried to devour her alive, but she stood brave.
Following a powerful phoenix cry, her own Phoenix Flame started to merge with the Phoenix Flame in the area.
“You’ve finally understood it.”
A voice sounded in the void.
An exotic Godly Phoenix emerged from the sea of flames and presented its glorious, elegant self in front of Chu Hong.
It was like looking at a noble phoenix, and Chu Hong was like a child before it.
“Greetings, senior.” Chu Hong bowed and greeted the phoenix respectfully.
“Us phoenixes are divine beasts that can come back to life from the flames, so you don’t need to be afraid of it. Controlling flame is an instinct for us.
“However, you tried to resist it using an Immortal Weapon. If you didn’t understand the situation in time and continued to rely on the armor, the Phoenix Flame that I left behind would’ve burned you to ashes,” said the Godly Phoenix.
Chu Hong felt embarrassed. “Sorry, senior. I was being stupid.”
“You’re not too slow as you could understand the point and discard the protection of the armor. You are worthy to receive my inheritance.”
“Thank you, senior.”
Chu Hong was delighted.
“Young Godly Phoenix, I hope you can take my inheritance and carry it forward. Do not shame the name Huang Jinghuang!”
The sea of Phoenix Flame gushed toward Chu Hong in an instant.
Chu Hong accepted all of it without fear. The Phoenix Flame gushed into her body rapidly, and she could clearly feel that her bloodline was undergoing a drastic change.
At the same time, she also received a part of Huang Jinghuang’s memories.
Huang Jinghuang was the most exotic Godly Phoenix in her nest back in ancient times. She was reputed to be the one to awaken the Godly Phoenix bloodline the ninth time and rival the Phoenix Forefathers!
However, the calamity that put the entire Immortal World, and even the whole universe, forced her to leave its nest.
While she was going to the frontline to protect the world, she had a feeling that that might be a trip of no return. Hence, she left her inheritance in the Interstellar Arena.
Huang Jinghuang’s life was nothing short of a wonder. She was born with the fifth awakened bloodline, and through cultivation, she achieved his eighth awakening. She was only one step shy of reaching the ninth time, which would allow her to rival the Phoenix Forefathers, and she barely met any rivals throughout his life.
If it were not for that universe-threatening calamity, she would have reached the Phoenix Forefathers level and become a powerhouse, second only to the Primordials.
“I shall carry forward senior’s wishes with my life. I will complete what you started and achieve the ninth awakening!”
Chu Hong understood that Huang Jinghuang’s biggest wish was to be as strong as the Phoenix Forefathers.
As its successor, she ought to finish what she could not.
