313: Drink up the blood of the phoenix and forge a golden body with the divine fire!

The Fire Phoenix stood up, unfurling its beautiful wings that blotted out the sky, golden flames burning fiercely, making it appear like a scorching sun in the sky.

Lu Jiuyuan looked up at the majestic Fire Phoenix, his eyes devoid of any reverence, only greed.

Yan Cangfeng had been resurrected by a drop of Phoenix blood, his cultivation soaring, directly mastering the Fire God's Fury of the Heavens Will Four Symbols Art.

And how much more potent would an entire Phoenix be?

The Fire Phoenix was enraged by Lu Jiuyuan's brazen gaze, and it flapped its wings violently!

"Boom!"

Golden divine fire, like a celestial river pouring down, swept towards Lu Jiuyuan, covering everything!

These flames contained the power of sacred purification and ultimate destruction, enough to incinerate all things!

Facing the Phoenix divine fire capable of incinerating all things, Lu Jiuyuan let out a long cry, his body erupting with an extreme crimson-golden light, the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill pushed to its Peak, his entire being seemingly transforming into a human sun!

"Rumble—!"

The golden Phoenix divine fire instantly engulfed Lu Jiuyuan!

The terrifying high temperature caused the rocks of the entire Sword Mausoleum to begin melting and dripping, turning into fiery red magma. Space twisted, heat waves steamed, as if this place had become the core of the sun.

However, in the center of that endless golden sea of fire, a crimson-golden figure stood towering!

Lu Jiuyuan's black robe turned to ash the moment it touched the divine fire, but his crimson-golden Invincible Vajra body,

under the burning of the divine fire, emitted a "buzzing" metallic tremor. Its light not only did not dim but, under the tempering of the flames, became even purer and more dazzling!

"Hahahaha! Invincible Vajra body, Phoenix divine fire forging the Invincible Vajra body, what a thrill! How invigorating!"

"Caw—!"

The Fire Phoenix let out a furious cry that shook the heavens, flapping its wings violently again, unleashing more divine fire. At the same time, its incomparably sharp talons tore through the air, clawing down at Lu Jiuyuan in the sea of fire!

"Your blood, this King claims it!"

A fierce glint flashed in Lu Jiuyuan's eyes. Facing the sharp, burning Phoenix talons, his feet instantly exploded.

Full speed ahead!

"Boom!"

A sonic boom erupted again!

His figure instantly blurred, leaving behind an afterimage scorched by the divine fire. His true body, with an inconceivable speed, dodged the fatal blow of the Phoenix talons and appeared at the Fire Phoenix's neck!

"Get down here, you!"

He pointed his fingers like a sword, the crimson-golden sword Qi condensed to its extreme. No longer a mere test, it now contained his indomitable sword Dao will and surging True Qi, and he slashed fiercely at the Fire Phoenix's slender neck!

"Rip—!

The flames swirling around the Fire Phoenix were instantly cut open, and the crimson-golden sword Qi, like a hot knife through butter, instantly broke through its incredibly tough divine feathers and flesh!

Scalding Phoenix blood, burning with golden flames, gushed out like a fountain!

"Caw!!!"

The Fire Phoenix let out a sorrowful cry of pain and alarm, its massive body trembling violently. It flapped its wings madly, wanting to create distance and release more divine fire to burn this golden monster that had wounded it to death.

But how could Lu Jiuyuan give it a chance?

"Trying to leave? Too late!"

Lu Jiuyuan followed closely, his five fingers like hooks, grabbing the Fire Phoenix's neck fiercely.

He pulled it over and directly bit into the wound on the Fire Phoenix's neck!

"Gulp... gulp..."

Scalding Phoenix True Blood, containing immense vital essence and divine power, surged into his throat like magma!

Every drop of blood was like a concentrated ball of fire, flowing into his abdomen, instantly erupting into a terrifying torrent of energy that washed over his entire body!

Burning! Incredibly burning!

A burning sensation, even more intense than the divine fire that had incinerated him externally, erupted from within his body!

His skin instantly turned crimson, as if it were a red-hot branding iron, and wisps of golden flames even shot out from his seven orifices and pores!

But he did not stop; instead, he swallowed the Phoenix True Blood even more frantically, while simultaneously circulating his profound skill, desperately refining this vast and violent energy, guiding it to strengthen himself.

The Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, stimulated by the Phoenix blood, actually began to transform to a deeper level!

In a few breaths, the Fire Phoenix's body gradually shriveled, eventually turning into a pile of ashes in the flames, leaving behind only a few of the most Origin, shimmering Phoenix True Feathers.

Lu Jiuyuan stood in the center of the Sword Mausoleum, golden Phoenix True Fire constantly erupting from the pores all over his body, his entire being seemingly transformed into a walking volcano.

The True Fire originating from the Phoenix Origin was far more overbearing than the external burning before. They ignited from deep within his internal organs and bone marrow, savagely destroying and incinerating his Invincible Vajra body.

"Crack..." A faint cracking sound echoed. Spiderweb-like cracks began to appear on his golden skin. Deep within the cracks was not flesh and blood, but surging, crimson-gold, magma-like scorching energy.

His muscles atrophied, then forcibly repaired themselves with the support of the immense vital essence, only to be incinerated again by the True Fire, a cycle that repeated endlessly, as if he were enduring perpetual torture.

If not for the truly miraculous nature of his Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, coupled with the massive amount of vital essence provided by the Phoenix blood he had just devoured, he would have long since turned to ash.

"Phoenix Nirvana, born from death... But this power is too violent. Forcibly entering Nirvana will only lead to complete destruction!"

Lu Jiuyuan's thoughts raced, as he had long anticipated this.

"Three Points Return to Origin, Profound Ice Force, freeze myself!"

An extreme cold Qi emerged from the deepest part of his Dantian Qi Sea, like ancient profound ice suddenly erupting, flowing against his Meridians, meeting the rampant golden True Fire!

"Sizzle—!"

Ice and fire, two extremely opposing energies, collided violently within his body!

The extreme pain even surpassed mere burning. His body seemed to become a battlefield, with the Invincible Vajra body as the foundation, ninety-five percent a furnace that incinerated all things, and five percent the Soul-freezing cold.

His Meridians trembled violently amidst the ice and fire, as if they could snap at any moment.

But his will was like iron, and he forcibly maintained the circulation of his profound skill.

The profound ice was slowly forced out of his body, forming a visible, crystal-clear layer of profound ice, emitting a chilling aura, which rapidly spread upwards from his feet, covering his legs, torso, and arms... Wherever the profound ice passed, the golden flames erupting from his body were forcibly suppressed and frozen. However, within the ice layer, a crimson-golden light still stubbornly flickered and flowed, like frozen magma.

Finally, the profound ice completely covered his head as well, forming a giant crystal-clear ice coffin, about a zhang tall, completely sealing Lu Jiuyuan within it.

Inside the ice coffin, Lu Jiuyuan's eyes were tightly shut, his face frozen in the moment when ice and fire intertwined.

His body presented a peculiar state within the ice Seal:

The surface was unmelting profound ice, beneath the ice layer, his crimson-golden bones were clearly visible. Above the bones,

crimson-golden Phoenix True Fire slowly flowed and burned like a living thing, constantly scorching the frozen flesh and Meridians, while immense vitality continuously repaired them.

Destruction and repair, burning and freezing, achieved a strange balance in this confined space.

And just as this balance was achieved, and Lu Jiuyuan's consciousness completely sank into darkness, falling into the deepest level of slumber, the fourth Golden Finger, Sheng Sheng Bu Xi (Unceasing), activated!
