211 Leaving the Phoenix’s Nest
“This guy is so lucky. Just when the tri-colored heavenly tribulation was ready to strike, he made the breakthrough to the Supreme Sage realm first, which caused the tribulation clouds to disperse and the tri-colored heavenly thunder to not fall,” The big black pot exclaimed, shocked by Qin Chen’s good luck. After all, if the tri-colored thunder fell, even if Qin Chen had invincible combat power, his chances of survival would not be more than 10%. It could be said that he literally had a 90% chance of dying.
Qin Chen was also secretly happy. He sat cross-legged on the ground and circulated the Chaotic Imperial Sutra to consolidate his realm. At this moment, the phoenix’s blood essence attacked again. The divine fire engulfed Qin Chen, turning him into a man of flames again.
“Refine!” Qin Chen growled, and the Chaotic Imperial Scripture circulated faster, constantly devouring and refining the phoenix blood essence on his body. After 15 minutes, the phoenix blood essence was finally refined. His aura became increasingly terrifying, and the faint cry of a phoenix could be heard from his body.
“Kid, you’re really lucky! To think you didn’t die in the heavenly tribulation,” The big black pot teased.
Qin Chen stood up and looked at the big black pot. However, when he saw that all the divine fire in the valley had disappeared, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and roared, “Quickly hand over the rest of the phoenix blood essence. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“The phoenix blood essence has great karma. Refining one drop is already the limit of what you can bear. If you are greedy, you will be inviting disaster!” The big black pot said coldly.
“Lord pot, what about me? I don’t want a drop and am just asking for half a drop. Even if it’s just a little bit, I’ll be satisfied. Lord pot, please do me a favor and give me a little bit of phoenix blood essence!” The big scorpion once again became humble. To get the phoenix blood essence, he actually knelt in front of this big black pot.
Qin Chen could not stand it anymore. Since the big scorpion had followed him into this dangerous place, he naturally could not let the other party return empty-handed, “Hurry up and give him a drop of phoenix blood. Otherwise, I will fight you to the death. I can’t break you, but can’t I seal you? If you don’t give him the phoenix blood essence, I’ll seal you in a latrine pit for ten thousand years!”
Hearing Qin Chen’s words, the big black pot frowned and gave him a deep look. It didn’t think that Qin Chen was joking. Therefore, for the sake of the rest of its life, the big black pot handed over a drop of phoenix blood essence.
The phoenix’s blood essence floated in the air, and the big scorpion could not help but lick its lips. However, when it thought of the scene when Qin Chen had refined the blood essence, it immediately shrank back and frowned.
“How is he supposed to keep this phoenix blood essence?” Qin Chen asked.
“He can just suppress it in his Supreme Sage weapon,” the big black pot snorted, “But with his talent, he can’t absorb so much of it anyway.”
Hearing this, the big scorpion took out his Supreme Sage weapon and split the phoenix’s blood essence into two. After silently putting away half of it, he smiled at Qin Chen and said, “Lord pot is right. My talent is average, so I can only refine half a drop of phoenix blood essence at most. You should keep the remaining half.”
Qin Chen didn’t feign modesty. He took out a Supreme Sage weapon and kept the other half a drop of the phoenix blood essence. After that, he explored the depths of the Phoenix’s Nest for a while, trying to find traces of the old lunatic. However, he returned empty-handed in the end. The old lunatic had obviously left long ago.
The next day, Qin Chen was about to leave with the big scorpion. However, before they left the valley, the two discovered a huge golden tree. The tree was huge, an ancient parasol tree. However, the leaves of this parasol tree were golden, which made them very curious.
“There seem to be spatial fluctuations in this tree. It seems to be hiding a small world!” The big scorpion exclaimed in surprise. It looked at the tree with a burning gaze, thinking that it had found some treasure.
At that moment, the big black pot suddenly spoke, “Brat, I advise you not to provoke this tree. Don’t forget, the phoenix tree is the resting place of the phoenix. You’d better leave as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, Qin Chen felt for the first time that big black pot’s words made sense. Thus, he did not dare to probe the ancient golden parasol tree any further. Instead, he directly led the big scorpion out of the Phoenix’s Nest.
Walking out of the Phoenix’s Nest, Qin Chen immediately saw Feng Qingxue and the eight-shedding divine silkworm waiting outside.
Seeing Qin Chen come out, Feng Qingxue hurried over and asked with concern, “Elder King, are you all alright?”
“I’m fine!” Qin Chen replied calmly.
The eight-shedding divine silkworm looked at Qin Chen in shock and exclaimed in disbelief, “You’ve actually broken through to the Supreme Sage realm! Could it be that the fluctuations from the Phoenix’s Nest yesterday were you undergoing your tribulation?”
“That’s me,” Qin Chen nodded, not hiding his cultivation.
The eight-shedding divine silkworm was shocked. It didn’t expect Qin Chen to break through to the Supreme Sage realm so quickly. It also didn’t expect that Qin Chen’s breakthrough into the Supreme Sage realm would cause such a huge commotion.
“Boy, it seems that you have encountered good fortune in the Phoenix’s Nest! You’re such a lucky kid,” The eight-shedding divine silkworm exclaimed.
“Senior, you’re being too kind!” Qin Chen cupped his hands in response. He was still very humble and did not become arrogant just because he had broken through.
Feng Qingxue, who was standing at the side, suddenly said, “Elder King, I’ve already arranged for a banquet. Why don’t you follow me back to the imperial palace?”
“Thank you, but I have to take my leave,” Qin Chen shook his head. After bidding farewell to the two, he left with the big scorpion. Looking at Qin Chen’s back, Feng Qingxue’s eyes were slightly disappointed.
After returning to the Taiyi Holy Land, Qin Chen did not run around anymore. Instead, he sent a message to Supreme Sage Qin Tian. Following this, he went into seclusion in the great emperor’s palace to prepare for the war between the two factions.
On the eve of the war between the two factions, the human race and the ten thousand ancient races were restless, and many experts came out of seclusion. From time to time, Sagely might fluctuations could be felt.
In the human camp, all the powerful unaffiliated cultivators had gathered at the Great Qin Dynasty and the Taiyi Holy Land. They wanted to fight against the ten thousand ancient races and help the human race.
These unaffiliated cultivators were basically all Kings and Venerables. Although they weren’t Sages, they were still a great help. In an instant, the Great Qin Dynasty and the Taiyi Holy Land became very lively.
“I am Venerable Shen Huo. I am here to help the Elder King!”
“I’m Venerable Jian. I’m here to help the Elder King! ”
“Northern Castle’s Snow King is here to help the Elder King!”
“Southern Desolate Lands’ War King is here to help the Elder King!”
One by one, unaffiliated cultivators arrived at the Taiyi Holy Land. The holy land became very lively. Facing so many Venerables and Kings, the Taiyi Holy Land didn’t dare to be arrogant and sent elders to welcome them.
The cultivators had arrived in the Taiyi Holy Land for a while, but they had yet to see the Elder King. All of them looked disappointed, thinking that the Elder King had refused to show his face because he thought they were too weak to participate in the war between the two factions.
A Venerable stood up and shouted, “What does the Elder King mean? We’re here to participate in the war. Is he going to ignore all of us just because our cultivation realms aren’t high enough?”
