Chapter Three Hundred and Ninety-One: Fire Phoenix True Feather!
"It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that it's just the remains of the fake infant monk who didn't survive the [Inner Demon Tribulation]!"
"That's right. If you are really a monk at the Nascent Soul Stage, how could you be sitting in a place like this!"
"But I am too greedy!"
In the Hall of Light, Xu Song, who had figured out the truth, looked at the remains on the ground with a look of pity and sighed.
Previously, he saw faint golden light spots emerging on the bones of this skeleton, and mistakenly identified it as the remains of a monk in the Nascent Soul stage.
But after breaking the protective formation that the owner of the remains had put up during his lifetime and carefully inspecting the remains, he realized that he had just made a mistake.
This is not the remains of a monk in the Nascent Soul stage, nor is it the remains of a monk in the Golden Core stage, but the remains of a "fake infant" monk.
The so-called "fake infant" monks are actually the name given by cultivators to a special realm of monks.
When a cultivator at the ninth level of the golden elixir prepares to transform the elixir into a baby, he must first dissolve the golden elixir, and then use the melted golden elixir to fuse his soul with it to form a Yuanying. When the Yuanying is formed, the cultivator will usher in the "heart"
Demonic Tribulation".
Only by passing through the "Heart Demon Tribulation" can the Yuanying be truly stabilized and master the various exclusive magical powers possessed by monks in the Yuanying stage.
The "false infant" monks specifically refer to the monks who have just formed the Nascent Soul and have not yet passed through the "inner demon tribulation".
This kind of "fake infant" monk has no difference in magic power from the monks in the Yuanying stage, but because they have not survived the "inner demon tribulation", they do not have the magical powers possessed by the monks in the Yuanying stage.
Because there is no difference between the mana and the Yuanying stage monks, after the body of the "fake infant" monk is tempered by the Nascent Soul stage mana, it is naturally different from the ordinary Jindan stage monks, and is closer to the Yuanying stage monks.
However, because the "fake infant" state of the "fake infant" monks can only last for a short period of time, their bodies cannot be tempered to be as powerful as those of the Nascent Soul stage monks.
The remains in front of Zhou Yang and the others are those of a "fake infant" monk who failed to overcome the "Heart Demon Tribulation".
The "Heart Demon Tribulation" is extremely dangerous. Even if those cultivators at the ninth level of the Golden Elixir who reach the Nascent Soul stage can get through the initial stage of transforming the elixir into an infant, the chance of failure at this stage is as high as over 70%.
And once they fail to overcome the "Inner Demon Tribulation", those so-called "fake infant" monks will 100% lose their minds and die!
The "inner demons" caused by the "Heart Demon Tribulation" directly hit the monks' Taoist heart. If the Taoist heart is lost, even the Taoist gods can't save it.
Even if many monks in the Nascent Soul stage have survived the "Inner Demon Tribulation", if they were asked to choose again, they would rather face the forty-nine heavenly tribulations faced by the true immortals in the Tribulation Stage than experience the "Inner Demon Tribulation" again.
"Jie".
Although the heavenly tribulation is dangerous, it can be weakened and resisted by external objects such as magical weapons. However, there are few external objects that can help with the "inner demon tribulation". It basically relies on the monk's own mental state to resist it.
Obviously, the reason why the owner of the remains in front of Zhou Yang and others died here was because after failing to overcome the "Heart Demon Tribulation", his Taoist mind was lost and he died of confusion.
Zhou Yang didn't care about the cultivation level of the owner of the remains. When Xu Song looked at the remains and sighed, he had already taken away the treasures from the remains and inspected them.
Since the owner of the remains was a ninth-level golden elixir cultivator, his net worth would certainly not be bad.
Not to mention anything else, even the pale golden robe worn outside the remains was actually a fourth-level high-grade magic weapon.
This robe is woven from spiritual silk spun by a fourth-level alien spiritual beast, the "Golden Silkworm". Not only can it prevent being slashed by flying swords of the same level, but it also comes with a defensive magical power and an escaping magical power. Even in the past
I don’t know how many years it has been but it still remains intact, and its value alone is no less than that of an ordinary fifth-level low-grade magic weapon.
At the location of the bones' Dantian, Zhou Yang also found a golden bell with a dim light. Judging from the location of the golden bell, it should be the natal magic weapon that the owner of the bones refined during his lifetime.
It is a pity that after the death of its owner, this magic weapon has been left without care for a long time, and has lost its spirituality and has become a waste, without any use value for sacrifice.
It may be because the impact of the Nascent Soul realm cannot leave other external objects in the body. Apart from the golden bell and the robe worn by the natal magic weapon, the owner of the remains only has a storage bag on his right thumb.
Ring.
The mark of divine consciousness in the storage ring has dissipated due to the passage of time. After Zhou Yang took off the ring, he easily opened the ring and took out all the contents inside.
There are many things in the storage ring, but it must be because it has been too long. Many of the things in it have lost their spiritual energy and have lost their function due to being in an inert environment for a long time. This even includes several pieces that should be fifth-level magic weapons.
treasure!
Even the fifth-level magic weapon has lost its spiritual energy over a long period of time and has lost its function. As can be imagined, other treasures are also available.
Zhou Yang searched for a lot of treasures on the ground. In addition to fifty-four high-grade spiritual stones, even thousands of medium-grade spiritual stones had their spiritual energy dissipated and turned into ordinary crystal stones.
"Even the middle-grade spiritual stones and fifth-grade magic weapons have lost their spiritual energy. Could it be that the owner of this remains is a person from ten thousand years ago?"
Zhou Yang looked at the garbage all over the ground with a surprised look on his face, and his mind was greatly shaken.
Although he had previously heard Xu Song say that the altar was a large teleportation circle, he realized that this underground ruins was definitely not something built in the past few thousand years.
But now that he saw the treasures turned into waste in the storage ring of the owner of the remains, he realized that he might have far underestimated the establishment time of this underground ruins.
He relentlessly inspected everything left, especially some jade boxes specially used to preserve rare spiritual objects, and finally gained something else.
There were more than a dozen jade boxes of various kinds in the storage ring of the owner of the remains. After Zhou Yang opened them all, he found that most of the treasures stored in the jade boxes had also lost their aura due to the passage of time and had become nothing more.
Useless waste.
But there are also three spiritual objects in the jade boxes that can still be used because of their extraordinary quality and proper protection.
Of these three jade boxes, one jade box contained a fiery red feather. The feather was about two feet long and had a large number of mysterious flame inscriptions naturally generated on it. As soon as Zhou Yang took it out, the fire attribute aura around it
Then they rushed towards it, and then they were all absorbed by it.
After absorbing a large amount of fire-attribute spiritual energy, the flame inscriptions on the fiery red feather suddenly burst into flames, with a faint tendency to burn.
"Quickly, put this thing away quickly!"
Xu Song, who was originally thinking about the remains on the ground, sensed the change in spiritual energy, turned his head and glanced at the fiery red feather in Zhou Yang's hand, and then his expression changed wildly and he quickly started drinking.
In fact, without him having to say anything, Zhou Yang could faintly sense that something was wrong, and knew that he could not let the fiery red feathers in his hand continue to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world.
Therefore, when he heard Xu Song's shout, he quickly put it back into the red jade box that originally contained it, and covered the jade box to isolate it from contact with the outside spiritual energy.
"Do you know that you almost got into a big trouble? Do you know what that thing is? If I read it correctly, it is the legendary Fire Phoenix True Feather!"
"Of course, a real phoenix is at least a true immortal level being. That feather may just be the feather of an underage fire phoenix, or the true feather of some kind of phoenix spiritual bird with extremely strong phoenix bloodline."
"But no matter which possibility it is, that feather is at least the true feather owned by a sixth-level bird demon king!"
"If you hadn't put away this fundamental life feather in time just now, after it absorbs enough spiritual energy, it will directly stimulate the demon king level fire magical power. By then, not only will this inestimable feather be
If it is destroyed, all of us here will die under its attack!"
As soon as Zhou Yang closed the jade box, he was greeted by Xu Song's scolding. This was the first time he had seen this old ghost so scared since he was with him.
Yes, scared.
The attributes of ghosts are inherently restrained by masculine powers such as flames, thunder and lightning, and the fire phoenix is a divine beast in the fire. In terms of power alone, the phoenix true fire it controls is stronger than Zhou Yang's "Qianyang true fire".
"Maybe even better.
If Xu Song is right, if the fiery red feather just inspired the demon king level fire magic power, not to mention a ghost cultivator like him at the Golden Core stage, even a ghost cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage would be in danger of death.
"Ahem, this is because the junior was reckless and caused the senior to be frightened. I hope the senior can forgive me."
An embarrassed look flashed across his face, and Zhou Yang honestly admitted his mistake and apologized.
After all, this incident was indeed caused by his mistake. Because of his mistake, he almost killed everyone. He should indeed apologize for this.
Seeing his good attitude in admitting his mistake, Xu Song's anger subsided a little, and he couldn't help but waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you will learn a lesson, you just need to take it easy if you encounter this kind of thing in the future."
Then he straightened his face, looked at Zhou Yang with a stern face and explained: "So that you know, among the sixth-order demon kings, there are powerful beings with extraordinary blood, and every scale or feather on their body contains their will and power.
The power of the source, if they don’t deliberately take back the will within them, even if these things are obtained by outsiders, it is easy for people to set themselves on fire!"
"The feather just now was relatively good. The demon king's will inside it should have dissipated over a long time. Otherwise, as soon as it was separated from the jade box that sealed it, it would have spontaneously combusted without anyone suppressing it with great magic power.
Turn into real phoenix fire and attack all nearby creatures!"
This is the first time Zhou Yang has heard of such a thing. After all, the Zhou family has too little background. Apart from the disciples of the great sects, only the Golden Core Stage monks can have access to these matters involving the top beings in this world.
"Junior has learned a lesson, thank you senior for your guidance."
He nodded with an astonished look on his face and bowed his hands in thanks.
Then he turned his palm, put away the red jade box containing the phoenix feather, and looked at the remaining two jade boxes containing spiritual objects.
