Chapter 1258: Chapter 449: Seeking the Method of the Primordial Spirit

Phoenix Clan Battle Body.

After Li Ping’an returned to the Heavenly Court, he let the Roc Bird and Eastern King handle the placement of the Phoenix Clan, then promptly announced his seclusion, diving headfirst into developing the Phoenix Clan Battle Body.

He was previously planning to venture into the Southern Continent to deal with the Southern Divine Court, yet was clueless about how to approach it;

But now with this battle body of the Daluo Realm, he can directly take it to the Southern Continent, perfectly solving his self-protection problem.

In fact, as long as he’s ruthless enough, directly toppling the Southern Divine Court is also a good choice.

Therefore, the current problem Li Ping’an needs to solve is how to simultaneously control his main body and the battle body.

The second primordial spirit technique previously performed by Kunpeng pointed him down a path.

How does one cultivate the second primordial spirit?

Li Ping’an consulted texts, searched his memory, inquired with the Artifact Spirit, but was completely at a loss.

For this reason, he can only set it aside, planning later to personally visit his third teacher at Mount Lingjiu.

Having such resources, it’s wasteful not to use them.

Li Ping’an spent over a month in seclusion and soon mastered this battle body.

This battle body can be used as his main body without any issues; from top to bottom, inside and out, this battle body can be considered perfect.

However, Li Ping’an always feels somewhat uncomfortable, as after all, it was formed through the Nirvana of the Primordial Phoenix’s body, and future breakthroughs will be very difficult. Whereas his primary Dao Body cultivates both body and primordial spirit, as long as he progresses smoothly, his future achievements should slightly surpass this battle body.

If it were a battle body formed by the full power of the Primordial Phoenix Dao Body’s Nirvana, Li Ping’an would not hesitate, but would directly cut off his old body, leap forward as a Great Power, and find ways to enhance his primordial spirit.

But this Dao Body merely contains one and a half parts of the Primordial Phoenix’s power.

Using it as an external avatar suits perfectly.

Performing spells and formations relies on the power of the primordial spirit, thus after Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit enters, he can freely cast spells.

This battle body can accommodate more immortal power than a typical Golden Immortal.

And it can transform into a true phoenix form, so in a certain sense, Li Ping’an indeed embodies what Duobao teased, being the third pure-blooded Phoenix in the world.

This month, Li Ping’an familiarized himself with the physical combat divine skills he possesses using this battle body.

Benefiting from the phoenix’s innate ability to control fire, when he uses the Phoenix Battle Body to perform the Golden Crow Sun-Piercing Art, it’s almost indistinguishable from the real thing;

Using the Phoenix Battle Body to perform various divine skills of the Golden Crow Clan, he gains considerable strength enhancement, and his affinity with fire-element spiritual power markedly increases.

So, it’s quite great.

The next time he meets Lu Ya, he’ll be able to stand up even straighter.

Li Ping’an originally wanted to end his seclusion, as there are still many matters requiring his attention, and he needs to check on the Phoenix Clan placement situation.

But as an idea suddenly struck him, he thought of something unexpected.

The main body and Phoenix Battle Body sat cross-legged, facing each other; Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit emerged from its sheath, observing the main body, then the Phoenix Battle Body, back to the main body, then dressed the Phoenix Battle Body, putting on an inner robe and flat-angle pants, his primordial spirit entered the Phoenix Battle Body, and he performed the Hidden Dust Technique a dozen times.

A being that appears merely Golden Immortal Realm outwardly yet whose actual combat power is on par with a Heavenly Emperor of the Daluo Realm, doesn’t this just come into existence?

Li Ping’an’s eyes squinted with a content smile.

He extended his seclusion for another month, focusing on refining the concealment secret technique paired with the Phoenix Battle Body.

For future cultivation, enlightenment, residing in the Heavenly Court, and romances with Ningning at the Jade Pool, he will use his main body;

For ventures abroad, stealth attacks, he will use the Phoenix Battle Body.

‘Now all that is lacking is the technique for the second primordial spirit.’

‘The innate five-element aura required for the eighth spiritual metamorphosis is still insufficient, later I must find a way to seek help from Kong Xuan, as the Water and Earth platforms can only transform water and earth spiritual power; the innate five-element aura is where Kong Xuan is effective.’

Li Ping’an pondered in his heart, casually storing the Phoenix Battle Body in the Spirit Platform to nourish it, lifted the hem of his Daoist robe, and stepped out of the great hall of seclusion.

This time in seclusion he didn’t manage to comprehend even the basics of the Phoenix Clan’s Nirvana Technique.

Not even a tiny bit.

He pushed open the gate, and outside, sixteen celestial maidens slightly bowed in salute.

Not far away, the thirty-six Heavenly Fury Guards on duty appeared, dropping to one knee.

“Greetings, Your Majesty.”

“No formalities,” Li Ping’an, glancing at the resplendent palanquin prepared by the celestial maidens, smiled and waved his hand, “Tell the Queen Mother there’s no need for grand ceremonial arrangements temporarily; I shall travel on my own.”

The celestial maidens complied with a bow, retreating with the palanquin lowered.

Li Ping’an clasped his hands behind him and called, “Where is my commander?”

From the distant cloud, Niu Benben, dressed in golden armor with hidden horns on his head and a bullring still hanging from his nose, immediately leaped out, flipped mid-air, landed, and dropped to one knee.

“Your Majesty! I am here!”

“Rise,” Li Ping’an conjured a white cloud, “follow me to Tong Ming Palace; I have several matters to delegate to you.”

Niu Benben promptly agreed, his eyes gleaming.

What kind of bull is he now?

The close attendant of the Heavenly Emperor, he’s practically the Heavenly Emperor’s personal bull!

Typically, a bull in his position only needs to please the Heavenly Emperor, and advancement is easier than ever.

Niu Benben feels he’s in an auspicious position.

Since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, every day Niu Benben deliberates his own positioning issues, striving to align with the Heavenly Emperor’s guidance, syncing with those above and below.

Should the Heavenly Emperor express any desire, whether for clandestine affairs, private indulgences, or seeking excitement, he can ensure they’re perfectly organized.

Whether it’s the beautiful consorts from the Heavenly Fox Clan or the fierce women from the Lion and Tiger clans, he can arrange them immediately, creating a ‘underground imperial city’ for the Emperor, especially where matters that the Human Race’s ethics cannot play out!
