Chapter 545 544: Boiled Parasol Tree Netherworld Phoenix Egg
Yu Qingtan put away her belongings and followed the Netherworld Phoenix phantom as it flew upwards. Soon, at the tree canopy of the Void Parasol Tree, a huge bird's nest made from the tree's branches came into view, lined with a layer of crystals with two giant eggs lying quietly in the middle.
"Chaos Divine Crystals! Soul Crystals! Void Crystals! Void Parasol Fruits!" At this moment, even Yu Qingtan couldn't help but exclaim.
Chaos Divine Crystal, previously one had been auctioned at the Hundred Treasures Auction for an exorbitant price of over sixty billion Immortal Crystals, even more precious than an Immortal Artifact. There were eighteen of them here.
Soul Crystals, the core of an Eighth Stage Soul-devouring Beast. Yu Qingtan had once obtained one from a system lottery, and there were hundreds of them here.
Void Crystals, an Eighth Stage Spirit Ore nurtured only within large Void Stone ore veins. There were also hundreds of them here.
The remaining Divine Crystals and Immortal Crystals formed a thick layer, numbering over a hundred billion. The actual size of the nest was much larger than it appeared due to the presence of the power of Space Law.
Around the two giant eggs, there were hundreds of fist-sized, wrinkly spherical seeds exuding a rich vitality. Those were the seeds of the Void Parasol Tree.
At the Eighth Stage, the Void Parasol Tree blooms once every hundred thousand years, and fruits once every hundred thousand years. The fruits contain rich Wood Dao Principle and vitality, one of which could extend an Eighth Stage Tribulation Crosser's life by ten thousand years.
"You have some insight, all these are the foundation for the resurrection of my Netherworld Phoenix Clan. Once you become the guardian of these two children, ten percent of these treasures will be yours.
Now, sign this Dao Protection Contract!" the Netherworld Phoenix phantom said softly as it looked toward the two giant eggs, then summoned a contract made of beast skin from somewhere within the giant nest.
"Ten percent, how is that enough? If I destroy you, all these will be mine! You're just an Eighth-Stage phantom of a Netherworld Phoenix, your strength probably hasn't reached the Eighth Stage yet!"
Yu Qingtan said, unsatisfied with merely ten percent of the treasure, plus she had no interest in becoming a guardian.
"Heh, you really are a greedy human! Sadly, do you think you still have a choice here? This Dao Protection Contract was personally crafted by an ancestor of my Netherworld Phoenix Clan who achieved True Spirit. You must sign it, willing or not."
The Netherworld Phoenix phantom turned its head and looked coldly at Yu Qingtan, speaking sternly. As its words fell, the beast-skin contract transformed into a beam of light, rushing towards Yu Qingtan.
Yu Qingtan immediately set up the Five Elements Linked Sword Formation in defense, and a Five Elements Protective Shield around her. Yet the beam of light, like an intangible object, directly penetrated Yu Qingtan's defense and shot into her head, attempting to forcefully imprint the contract onto her soul.
"Heh, this is a technique left by a Ninth Stage being. You, a mere Seventh Stage, how could you possibly defend against it? What, this is impossible, how did the contract fail!" The Netherworld Phoenix phantom continued to mock coldly, but the next instant, its expression drastically changed, staring at the smiling Yu Qingtan.
"Nothing is impossible, Elder Netherworld Phoenix. If the Netherworld Phoenix Clan has already dissipated in the annals of history, why bother coming back into play!" Yu Qingtan said calmly.
The failure of the Dao Protection Contract was naturally the work of system dad again. Yu Qingtan had always been unaware of the "Fairy Cultivation System's" upper limit. Now that a technique from a Ninth Stage existence had been easily neutralized, her confidence surged even more.
"I don't believe this... this isn't real..." The Netherworld Phoenix phantom showed signs of madness.
"You no longer need to exist!" Yu Qingtan said, then directly utilized the "Power of Love" to enhance her strength to nearly the Tribulation Crossing Stage and cast the Great Stabilizing Divine Art, Soul-Purging Bewilderment, and Great Universal Zen Light on the Netherworld Phoenix phantom.
The Netherworld Phoenix phantom was immediately hit, becoming transparent by a large half. He was just a projection, barely possessing the top Soul Dao strength of the Seventh Stage.
"You wish to extinguish the hopes of my Netherworld Phoenix Clan, but that is impossible. Ancestral will, descend upon me, Space Cutting!" The Netherworld Phoenix's shadow still had a trick up its sleeve. A bead within the shadow shattered, and he suddenly materialized, then unleashed the innate divine ability of the Netherworld Phoenix Clan.
In an instant, the area where Yu Qingtan was located was filled with dense spatial rifts.
The power and speed of this attack reached the level of a veteran Eighth Stage being. Yu Qingtan couldn't react in time and was sliced into invisible particles by the Space Cutting.
"A mere Seventh Stage human dares to contend against the heritage of my Netherworld Phoenix Clan? Sadly, my children will have to rely on themselves from now on." After the attack, the Netherworld Phoenix became a shadow again and continued to fade.
This strike had exhausted all his strength, and he was about to completely dissipate. At this moment, he looked tenderly towards the two giant eggs in the Phoenix Nest and said,
"Impossible, absolutely impossible..."
The next instant, the Netherworld Phoenix's shadow suddenly turned its head and saw an unscathed Yu Qingtan reappear, his gaze filled with disbelief.
Regrettably, he was powerless to turn the tide and completely vanished.
"It's true you have many treasures, but it's unfortunate you encountered me. Now they are all mine!" Yu Qingtan muttered to herself, naturally, her innate divine ability had taken effect.
Yu Qingtan approached the two giant eggs, faintly feeling an immense vitality within them. She retrieved the Blood Refinement Saintly King Cauldron, placed the two giant eggs inside, added two Void Parasol Fruits, and some high-grade Spiritual Liquid, then a raging fire appeared below the cauldron.
"The taste of cooking phoenix eggs must be quite good!" Yu Qingtan muttered to herself while collecting the Chaos Divine Crystals, Soul Crystals, Void Crystals, and Void Parasol Fruits from the Phoenix Nest into the System Space.
Yu Qingtan gazed at the bubbling Spiritual Liquid in the Blood Refinement Saintly King Cauldron and the two giant eggs slowly vibrating within it, feeling an indescribable excitement swell in her heart.
Before long, the two giant eggs were cooked. Yu Qingtan used the Magic of Changing Size to enlarge her body, then picked up a Netherworld Phoenix egg, peeled off the shell, and immediately a delicious aroma invaded her nostrils.
Yu Qingtan placed the tender cooked phoenix egg in her mouth, chewed a few times, swallowed, and then fetched a Void Parasol Fruit to eat.
"Delicious, indeed, high-quality ingredients only need the simplest cooking methods!" Yu Qingtan praised, then sat down cross-legged to digest the immense energy contained within.
As the perfectly cooked Netherworld Phoenix egg entered Yu Qingtan's stomach, a warm and majestic power burst forth inside her body.
This power surged like a river breaching its dam, unceasingly tempering her limbs and bones, while Yu Qingtan felt her sensing ability towards the Wood Dao Principle, Space Law, and Soul Dao Principle greatly increase.
She closed her eyes, refining her body while comprehending the principles, feeling her cultivation level rise at an astonishing rate.
After an unknown period, Yu Qingtan slowly opened her eyes, which twinkled brightly. Both her Body Refinement Cultivation and Spiritual Cultivation Level had significantly improved.
She looked at the remaining Netherworld Phoenix egg and Void Parasol Fruit in the Blood Refinement Saintly King Cauldron, hesitated not at all, and ate them again to continue elevating her cultivation.
