Chapter 1336 - Chapter 1336 Chapter 557 The Attention of Ten Thousand

Chapter 1336: Chapter 557: The Attention of Ten Thousand Immortals, The Difficulty of the Ancient Divine Tribulation_1 Chapter 1336: Chapter 557: The Attention of Ten Thousand Immortals, The Difficulty of the Ancient Divine Tribulation_1 Regarding the Primordial Fire Phoenix consuming Divine Power Crystals, Han Yi truly had not understood the matter, and in the end, he could only attribute it to the mysterious origins of the phoenix, which was inherently unusual. Having this characteristic was not difficult to comprehend.

In the Daluo Immortal Realm, every Tamer Master could create a beast space within their internal space.

For Han Yi, as an Immortal Level Tamer Master, he could open up a space in the Immortal Spirit Realm that accommodated True Immortal Level true immortal beasts.

The beast seal just now was somewhat strange, but the connection between him and the Primordial Fire Phoenix was crystal clear.

Seeing that the Fire Phoenix liked Divine Power Crystals, he took out more than a dozen in a row to feed it, and then tried to collect it into the beast space.

To Han Yi’s surprise, this Primordial Fire Phoenix did not resist and was smoothly taken in.

However, at the moment the Fire Phoenix was collected into the beast space, the thoughts it transmitted were that it wanted to eat more Divine Power Crystals.

For this, Han Yi could naturally satisfy; he had an ample supply of Divine Power Crystals stored within the Divine Aperture World in his body, enough for this little creature to eat for many years.

After putting away the Fire Phoenix, he turned around again to look at his surroundings and, not discovering anything, continued forward as planned, flying forward for a quarter of an hour before finally turning to the southwest to cross over the Barren Fold Mountains and return to the territory of the Imperial Court’s Immortal Court.

However, this time he used Infant Morphing Change Form to transform into an ordinary-looking, tall, and skinny true immortal, unlikely to attract attention.

Ever since obtaining the Primordial Fire Phoenix, Han Yi actually had a conjecture in his heart.

The Barren Fold Mountains served as the boundary between the Imperial Court and the Demon Court, and powerful immortals frequently passed by; yet it was quite a coincidence that he had encountered the Primordial Fire Phoenix just as he returned.

After much deliberation, Han Yi concluded there could only be two reasons.

One was that someone was secretly following him, presumably releasing the juvenile Ancient Evil in his path ahead of time, to lure him into action, associated with this Phoenix.

However,

This possibility was extremely low, as anyone who could follow him undetected would at least be at the Immortal Monarch Level, and considering the immense value of the Primordial Fire Phoenix, even an Immortal Monarch would definitely not be willing to use it as bait.

Another possibility was that the Fire Phoenix had appeared before him by sheer twists of fate.

And moreover, this Fire Phoenix was not a genuine Primordial Fire Phoenix but born from an Evil Immortal returning to the ancient form, its true identity, very likely that of the one who had recently fought a major battle against two Immortal Monarchs…

Eastern Emperor Unique.

It was rumored that Eastern Emperor Unique had manifested seven different Evil Clan true forms, including the Chilong, Minghu, Celestial Ghost, Disaster Sparrow, Celestial Fox, Shaman Lian, and Mysterious Zi.

Back then on Pure Yang Mountain, its true form was that of a Celestial Fox, and more recently in the Barren Fold Mountains, the manifested true form was that of a Celestial Ghost.

After Han Yi had left Pure Yang Mountain and returned to the Age Candle, he had looked into more information on Eastern Emperor Unique. According to rumors, this legendary character of the Evil Clan had seven different Evil Clan true forms, among which Shaman Lian and Disaster Sparrow were considered Ancient Evils, not just ordinary Evil Clan members from after antiquity.

Of course,

Not all Ancient Evils were incredibly strong; some newborn ones had the cultivation of only Nascent Soul.

Besides, the records stated that every time this legendary character of the Evil Clan displayed a different Evil Clan true form, it underwent a new life experience, and only upon reaching the pinnacle could it awaken its memories and become aware of its identity.

Furthermore,

Beyond the seven Evil Clan true forms that had been revealed, some immortals speculated that Eastern Emperor Unique likely had more than these seven, even deducing that it would need to change into nine different forms to enter the realm of Evil King and that upon entering the realm of Evil King, its strength would surge dramatically. Becoming a Demon Venerable or even a Demon Emperor of the Tao Ancestor Realm was a strong possibility.

These speculations, which were not well-founded, did not originally concern Han Yi too much.

But after he encountered the Primordial Fire Phoenix in its juvenile stage, the thought suddenly flashed across his mind.

Considering the information from the records, it was highly likely, almost without a doubt, that this Phoenix could be the eighth or even ninth true form of Eastern Emperor Unique.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why he had encountered a Primordial Fire Phoenix so soon after returning to the Barren Fold Mountains.

The best explanation would naturally be that Eastern Emperor Unique, having stepped into the mountains ahead of him, was conveniently switching identities and evolving into a new true form.

This would explain everything.

Han Yi returned to the nearest Immortal City as a True Immortal and then returned to his Golden Immortal state so that he could board the corresponding Transmission Array. Not long after, he was back in the Age Candle Immortal Court.

He did not seek out the Golden Immortal Pavilion to report this incident of being ambushed, nor did he inform the Original Art Immortal Monarch about it but instead went back to the Fairy Pavilion on his own.

After all, this matter was, in fact, unknown to outsiders; the Demon Ape Great Sage and the Black Realm Star Lord would certainly not speak of it, and the two Immortal Monarchs near the Barren Fold Mountains had lost face due to Han Yi, so those Golden Immortals, if they had even a bit of emotional intelligence, would definitely not dare to spread the word and would act as if Han Yi’s encounter never occurred.

Thus, even if he informed the Immortal Court about this event, he wouldn’t have solid evidence, so it was better to say nothing at all.

After returning to the Fairy Pavilion, Han Yi reviewed the events, reflecting on his encounter with the Evil Clan’s Immortal Monarch and the Star Lord, as well as taking a hit from Jade Affinity Immortal Monarch. He concluded that his response had been appropriate.

Reviewing after battle was his habit.

However,

When he saw the Life Seeds on the panel, halved and then halved again, his expression immediately turned sour.

[Life Seeds: 34187 units].

The original ninety-thousand plus units of Life Seeds, used to unleash the Yue Guang that wiped out the Demon Ape Great Sage and the Black Realm Star Lord in an instant, dropped by more than sixty thousand, causing him distress.

He had previously been relieved that he hadn’t used any Life Seeds near the Barren Fold Mountains, managing to escape directly.
