Chapter 660: Chapter 198: Ice Phoenix Nirvana [16 added chapters for Silver Alliance Leader Wise Haichen] Chapter 660: Chapter 198: Ice Phoenix Nirvana [16 added chapters for Silver Alliance Leader Wise Haichen] This should have been a good sign, but the very obvious problem was the hardness of the eggshell, which the Ice Phoenix chick could neither peck nor crack!

Even if it were frantically spinning around inside, it was still powerless and helpless.

Unfortunately, the Nirvana process required the Ice Phoenix to break through the eggshell itself. If external force were used to crack the shell, the phoenix’s Nirvana wouldn’t be complete. It could result in the Phoenix’s basic constitution being weakened, impeding its growth or, at worst, causing Innate Energy to counteract, failing the Phoenix’s rebirth entirely!

Feng Yin immediately noticed the problem. Rather than lack of energy, it was the eggshell that was too thick, far exceeding the strength that the Ice Phoenix could handle at the moment!

In reality, the fact that the Ice Phoenix could not peck or crack the shell was normal–

This could have been anticipated. Whether it’s the hatching of an ordinary Phoenix or its Nirvana, they only face a single layer of eggshell.

But Dong Xiaoyan’s Ice Phoenix… was facing an eggshell that was two layers thick!

— The complete large eggshell that Feng Yin brought out was placed on top of the original eggshell.

The thickness and hardness of double eggshells was far beyond what a little creature in its infant stage could peck through!

No wonder the little fellow was spinning around inside in such a frenzy.

This was completely unexpected and unimaginable!

As a reborn bird, it felt vigorous, and its foundation was also solid. But why had the thickness of its eggshell doubled?

I’m not able to break it at all! It’s so embarrassing that it’s lost for words, okay?

When Feng Yin confirmed this, he almost burst out laughing.

“What are you laughing at? You wouldn’t be taking delight in my misfortune, would you?” Dong Xiaoyan frowned and asked, her tone decidedly hostile.

“I’m laughing… because this is a minor issue.”

Feng Yin laughed: “Leave the matter to me! Keep the Ice Phoenix egg in my room tonight. I’ll infuse it with a bit more energy. If it still doesn’t work, we can look for others to help.”

“I’ll wait in your room too!” Dong Xiaoyan said with determination.

“…Fine then.” Feng Yin agreed.

So, for the entire night, Feng Yin kept his hand on the Ice Phoenix egg and meditated with his eyes closed during the first half of the night!

Dong Xiaoyan, on the other hand, strained her neck watching, not even daring to breathe loudly in fear of disturbing Feng Yin’s operation.

By the second half of the night…

As Dong Xiaoyan watched until her eyes grew sore, and tears of exhaustion welled up in her eyes…

Feng Yin’s Spiritual Transformation Technique suddenly worked, imbuing the Spirit!

As soon as he pointed with his finger, the Ice Phoenix egg lit up, and an extremely pure Great Dao energy was infused into it.

Dong Xiaoyan was shocked, thinking that Feng Yin’s half-night effort had worked, staring wide-eyed at the Ice Phoenix egg!

At such a close inspection, both of them could clearly see the little bird inside greedily gasping for air. The originally bare wings were beginning to grow feathers.

The once pale yellow beak was also gradually turning light yellow…

This… this is clearly growing at a rapid pace!

By dawn…

The little one’s beak had turned iron black, gleaming with a sharp edge.

Although it still looked young, it was undeniable that this sharpness was sufficient, at least for the current dilemma!

With the Iron Black sharp beak, pecking the shell gave a “Dong” sound!

“It went smoothly, it can hatch now!”

Feng Yin immediately withdrew his hand: “Quickly find a quiet and concealed location, it’s fine if it’s not pure ice!”

Dong Xiaoyan picked up the Ice Phoenix egg and ran out in a panic. Feng Yin quickly followed after and reminded: “… Be careful…”

Unexpectedly, they had barely left the room when they were caught by the Cat Emperor, who spontaneously ascended into the air, leaping beyond the clouds, extending across the sky as fast as a shooting star, and in an instant, flying out of Yuezhou City.

Feng Yin and Dong Xiaoyan could only hear the whooshing wind and the blurred scenery. Everything below looked unfamiliar!

The Cat Emperor demonstrated his full power from the moment he left the city, ripping through space while travelling, After doing this three times, they finally stopped in a secluded valley.

Tall trees surrounded them, they were close and dense, blocking out the sun, no ray of light could be seen.

“Within a radius of 2000 miles, there are no human traces.”

The Cat Emperor was calm, saying, “Let the Ice Phoenix reincarnate here.”

He then added with some reproach like an elder chastising the younger: “I really don’t know whether to praise your boldness or foolishness. One is a princess of the Cloud Palace, the previous owner of the Ice Phoenix. The other is self-proclaimed Beast Taming Master, daring to let the Ice Phoenix reincarnate in the city! Don’t you know that in the final moments of the Ice Phoenix’s Nirvana, it will generate Nirvana Fire to complete the final Nirvana ritual, a flame that could potentially destroy half of Yuezhou City?”

The pair hung their heads in shame, accepting the lecture earnestly.

Feng Yin was just pretending; using the Spirit Enlightening Scripture to cheat, he was a fake master. Even a junior member of the Beast Taming Sect had more common knowledge about beasts than him; he knew nothing about such complex Spirit Beasts.

Although Dong Xiaoyan was the Ice Phoenix’s previous owner, she herself had never truly experienced the process of Ice Phoenix’s Nirvana. She had no idea of the intricacies involved. Without the Cat Emperor’s presence and sensitivity to the Nirvana Fire, when it appears, it could really lead to disaster…

Under the Cat Emperor’s remote control, the two quickly found a relatively flat spot, piled up a platform with top-grade Spirit Jade, and placed the Ice Phoenix egg on it.

After that, all they did was wait.

With plenty of elemental force in the Ice Phoenix and the eggshell broken, and with the support of the environment constructed from top-grade Spirit Jade, everything was ready except the crucial factor!

They could only hear ‘thump thump thump, thump thump thump’ sounds coming from inside the Ice Phoenix egg.

The Cat Emperor shot a surprised look: “The reborn little Ice Phoenix should be lacking a foundation. How is yours so vigorous?”

Feng Yin looked up at the sky.

Dong Xiaoyan was stunned into silence.

The Cat Emperor, irritated, said quietly, “If you had not said anything, I would not have known that Kid Feng had intervened, favoring Bing’er… I should not have saved you two ungrateful souls…”

The two’s embarrassment grew at having their secret uncovered…

The pecking sound echoed for a long time.The Ice Phoenix egg kept shaking, the premium Spirit Crystal beneath it was constantly consumed, but the egg remained as steady as ever, without a single crack.

“You can do it, my little ice baby! I’m waiting for your return,” Dong Xiaoyan whispered words of encouragement.

The Cat Emperor, however, frowned.

Having seen much of the world, she had once seen the rebirth of an Ice Phoenix. After a closer look, she vaguely sensed something was off.

The soon-to-be-reborn phoenix inside the egg was clearly much stronger than the average Ice Phoenix. It was already extremely rare, but the shell of the egg which protected it was the hardest she had ever encountered.

This was like a collection of anomalies.

Even the knowledgeable Cat Emperor couldn’t figure out what was going on!

This… this was too extraordinary!

About fifteen minutes in, the egg’s inhabitant appeared to grow tired and paused.

After nearly half an hour of rest, the persistent ‘peck peck pecking’ resumed.

This new round of pecking lasted for another two hours, there were no breaks in between, demonstrating incredible stamina and tenacity!

At last… The temperature of the Ice Phoenix egg shockingly surged

The Cat Emperor, quick to respond, quickly moved Feng Yin and Dong Xiaoyan back without a word.

“It’s about to hatch…”

“The Nirvana Fire has started to burn.”

Sure enough, as the ‘peck peck pecking’ became more frequent, the shell of the egg showed no cracks, but the surrounding temperature kept on rising. The trees within a hundred meters, began to char, the leaves curled, and the bark dried.

The nearby grass, was reduced directly to ashes.

It seemed to sense the outside atmosphere, the Phoenix in the egg quickened its actions.

The noise of the pecking continued, almost non-stop.

Dong Xiaoyan and the Ice Phoenix’s minds were connected, and she kept translating what the Ice Phoenix was mumbling.

“The Ice Phoenix is getting anxious, it says it has never seen such a hard shell…”

“Ah, the little one is complaining, saying its mouth hurts from pecking and it will talk less in the future…”

“Bing’er says it doesn’t want to peck anymore, it’s been pecking for so long and there isn’t even a single crack…”

Feng Yin’s facial muscles twitched – was the Ice Phoenix complaining, or was Dong Xiaoyan ranting?.

As the temperature surrounding them gradually rose, Feng Yin and Dong Xiaoyan, who had already retreated far, were feeling the heat…

Suddenly, a wave of heat rose up into the sky, tearing open a hole in the overcast clouds, a ray of sunshine immediately shone through!

“Peck peck peck…”

“Crack!”

A slight sound appeared, and the temperature, based on the original, shockingly rose more than ten times!

The Ice Phoenix inside, which was busily pecking, seemed to freeze in surprise, seemingly unaware that it had finally cracked the shell?!

Oh!

What a surprise!

It thought it would have to peck for a long time!

With sudden hope, the pecking sounds “peck peck peck peck peck peck…” became even more frequent.

Clearly, the Ice Phoenix saw hope and tried even harder.

At this time, the area centered on the Ice Phoenix egg had turned completely red.

Even the air itself seemed to be burnt and twisted.

Feng Yin, who was finding it increasingly difficult to bear the high temperature, retreated further while covering his nose, struggling to breathe. He questioned, “Is this the rebirth of the Ice Phoenix? Why is the temperature so high? Isn’t it supposed to be ice and not fire?”

“What does it matter if it’s Ice Phoenix or Fire Phoenix during the Nirvana Rebirth?”

The Cat Emperor was also retreating, her beautiful eyes centered on the Ice Phoenix egg. She said, “The so-called Fire Phoenix and Ice Phoenix only reveal their individual attributes and talents after they break out of their shell.”

“Before they break out of their shell, or rather, before the completion of their rebirth, they are nothing more than little phoenixes.”

“So it is,” Feng Yin finally understood.

Looking into the distance… well, with Feng Yin and Dong Xiaoyan’s vision, they could no longer make out the situation with the Ice Phoenix egg. After all, they were already a thousand meters away from the Ice Phoenix egg.

The Cat Emperor was the only one who could still observe the situation on The Other Side with precision.

“It’s cracked!”
