Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 523 - 523 117 Seeking Special Treatment_1

523: Chapter 117: Seeking Special Treatment_1 523: Chapter 117: Seeking Special Treatment_1 Phoenix Chao Fei flapped her wings once and flew past, skimming just over Su He’s head.

Su He didn’t notice a thing.

“How big the bird has grown, yet indulging in such mischievous tastes!” Phoenix Chao Fei scoffed after flying nearly ten thousand miles away.

Then, reverting to her husky voice, she said mockingly, “I just wanted to tell him!

With his little Boundary Status, even if the Blood Curse were planted on me, I could stick close to him and he wouldn’t even know!”

A tiny dot he is, yet he dares to brand her with a Blood Curse.

It’s simply courting death!

The Blood Curse is a method used by the Dragon Turtle Tribe to mark their mortal enemies, and once planted, it can’t be undone!

Not even reincarnation would help.

Apart from the Dragon Turtle that placed the Blood Curse, not even other Dragon Turtles can lift it!

One day he will come crying and begging for her to lift the Blood Curse.

And he’ll have to grovel for her favor, otherwise there’s no chance at all.

Yun Li took over her body and she gave herself a reproachful look, “Such a childish temper for a bird tens of thousands of years old!”

Immediately after, she assumed the persona of Phoenix Chao Fei again and hummed as she spread her wings and flew toward the southeast, where Feng Si had marked a forbidden area.

While flying, she voiced Yun Li’s confusion, “Sister, the Feng Zhong is overrun with Ghost Creatures.

During each Grand Ritual, people hunt them.

But when there’s no great tomb in Feng Zhong, where do the Ghost Creatures go?

Why haven’t we heard about any of them escaping through a space rift?”

Feng Zhong isn’t always inhabited by the tombs of Phoenix clan members.

They only exist when a member of the Phoenix clan dies and is summoned by Feng Zhong.

Moreover, the tomb can only last for a little more than thirty thousand years; if not revived, it will fall into the unseen domain.

For ninety percent of the time, Feng Zhong remains empty.

At such times, with no one coming in to hunt for Life Jade, wouldn’t the Yin Ghosts run rampant?

While continuing her flight, after a long silence, she finally spoke in Phoenix Chao Fei’s voice, “I don’t know!

Feng Zhong is extremely special.

I’ve never been here before; this place is related to the revival of the Phoenix Ancestor, and other than that old Phoenix, probably nobody knows the details.”

The “old Phoenix” she referred to was the oldest ancestor of the Phoenix clan at that time, as ancient as Thai Zu.

She scoffed twice and added, “The Phoenix nurtures nine chicks, and only when the nine chicks are together can the Phoenix Ancestor be revived.

I suspect that the old fellow above our heads right now is one of the nine chicks from the past—or even if not, a descendant of no later than the grandchild generation.

It couldn’t possibly be later!”

That old fellow is an extremely, extremely ancient being.

So ancient that the Phoenix clan, when speaking of the Phoenix Ancestor on special occasions, refers to the Origin Ancestor of the Phoenix clan.

Otherwise, they are usually referring to him.

It’s not something that can be achieved in a short period of time.

In all the Four Spirits, only he has achieved this.”

When the Dragon clan speaks of the Dragon Ancestor, they refer to the Dragon Ancestor Origin Ancestor, and the Qilin Clan does the same when mentioning the Qilin Ancestor—the Dragon Turtle, for some reason, never mentions their own origin.

They only go as far back as the pre-Tai Ming, and then they stop tracing their lineage.

The Phoenix Ancestor is probably the oldest of the five surviving ancestral beings of the four clans.

That old fellow actually knew that the Vermilion Bird Path is not in the bloodline, but in the stars!

When Phoenix Chao Fei found out that what he said was actually true, the turmoil in her heart was indescribable.

After flying across tens of thousands of miles, she landed in a canyon and glanced back to see the little Peacock hunting Yin Ghosts and Life Jade falling down.

They occasionally duplicated, from one to two, and two to four.

It was truly miraculous.

“His talent is too strange, and as he grows, the more enemies he makes, it’s impossible to hide,” she mused.

Replicating out of thin air is simply unreasonable.

Nothing comes into existence out of thin air.

Even if the virtual can give rise to the real, it must consume some energy.

But with Su He, reason doesn’t apply!

If it weren’t for the Dragon Turtle and Ji Feixue’s help in hiding him, he would’ve been captured and dissected long ago.

Even she had discovered this only when Su He had robbed her of phoenix tree seeds and bamboo rice in the Phoenix clan’s heritage site.

Robbery always pays off doubly, and now it seems the same goes for hunting these Yin Ghosts.

Could it be that he consumes Sky Killing energy to transform it into all things?

If that’s the case, it’s not bad.

What’s fearful is if it comes from nothing, for the free is the most terrifying!

“Let’s go!

I’ll also help you hunt Yin Ghosts this time.

With Life Jade of three types of energy, and your Consciousness Body, there’s no way we can’t bring you back to life!” Phoenix Chao Fei hummed twice and turned to enter the canyon.

Having absorbed Yun Li’s Origin Source, she was no different from a sister born of the same egg as Yun Li, even closer in bloodline than her descendants.

So she could enter, and she could help hunt the Yin Ghosts.

As Phoenix Chao Fei flew, she casually killed two Yin Ghosts and extracted their Life Jade: “It’s a pity your son’s daughter is not really your granddaughter; otherwise, we could cultivate more Life Jade.”

While they were all truly her offspring, oddly enough there was no blood relation.

“As long as she doesn’t reveal her Dragon Ghost True Body, I really like that little girl,” Phoenix Chao Fei muttered to herself.

…

I have a feeling someone’s talking about me!

Su He had a vague sense of it.

Ever since the True Martial Statue was erected in Qianjiang, his sense of the mysterious had inexplicably strengthened.

He had grown accustomed to being talked about during this time.

Being a Dragon Turtle, it would be abnormal not to be discussed!

Su He folded his wings and walked steadily, the Sky Killing from within his feathers falling down.

A black and a white Divine Dragon converged and spiraled in front of him, forming a Tai Chi Light Ring, within which an Old Drum Hammer descended from above, smashing powerfully at the junction where the Tai Chi Yin Fish and Yang Fish met.

The whole earth trembled.

A dozen or so Yin Ghosts buzzed for a moment and then froze.

Following that, the Sky Killing Formation enveloped the area and a hundred arrows were loosed.

All were aimed at thirteen Yin Ghosts.

As the arrows passed, the ghosts dispersed, and the dice flashed away.

Thirteen Life Jades fell to the ground, becoming forty-nine.

Su He collected them into his Storage Bag, summoned the Silver Maple Tree to his side, and sat motionless in contemplation.

Sky Killing, created by Ji Fei in emulation of the Dragon Clan’s Divine Power “Hundred Weapons,” has been perfected over many years and is now a highly mature formation.
