Rules of Heaven - C43

The moment the Yin-Yang Image appeared, the character “Leave” lit up, and the Yin-Yang Image began to emit a strong mysterious light. The surrounding formless heat waves suddenly turned into a whirlpool and poured into the Yin-Yang diagram. After obtaining this invisible heat wave, the Yin-Yang Image rotated even faster.

Suddenly, a loud cry of a phoenix came from the altar in front of him. Following that, a phoenix made of light rushed out of the phoenix and headed straight for Ding Hong. Ding Hong was taken aback. Without any hesitation, he pushed out his hands and released the Yin-Yang Image.

When the phoenix saw the Yin Yang Diagram, it did not stop. Its cry became louder as it ruthlessly slammed into the Yin Yang Diagram.

Upon seeing it, Ding Hong was so frightened that he immediately turned around and ran back. If it had not disappeared even after breaking through the Yin-Yang Image, wouldn’t he die here?

He didn’t run far before he heard a hissing sound from behind him. He hastily looked behind him and saw that the Yin-Yang Image had already disappeared, while the flames around Phoenix’s body became even more intense. With this look, Ding Hong was so scared that he jumped up and started running even faster. However, after running only a few steps, he suddenly heard a very painful cry. He stopped and looked back. He saw that the phoenix was struggling and Ding Hong could even see a shadow constantly churning inside the phoenix’s body.

It turned out that the Yin Yang diagram had absorbed too much heat from the surroundings. After it was torn apart by the phoenix, the heat had been completely absorbed by the phoenix. Although the flames on the phoenix’s body were large, it seemed to be somewhat weak. It was unable to withstand this excessive heat.

No, if it was said that the phoenix could not endure it, it would be more accurate to say that the blurry figure inside the phoenix’s body could not bear it. The phoenix tossed and turned in the air for a while before finally letting out a cry of despair. Its body broke apart and revealed many objects that were even redder than magma. The liquid did not look like liquids or gases.

After circling the area, they all turned a corner and flew into the blurry figure. After the figure received the items, it slowly solidified, eventually turning into a woman.

Looking at its appearance, it was Xi Feng.

But …

It’s a naked phoenix …

After Xihuang finished absorbing those things, his body sank down, but he lost his former elegance. After she landed on the ground, she remained motionless, as if she had fainted.

Ding Hong frowned as he looked at her from afar. After some thought, he took off the outer layer of his coat and came in front of her, wrapping her up. However, he coincidentally bumped into some wonderful parts of a beauty along the way, causing Ding Hong to turn red in the face and almost lose control of himself …

It took a long time for Ding Hong to calm down. Seeing that she wouldn’t wake up for a while, he hurriedly carried her into the pavilion. There was only one floor in the pavilion, and a giant golden phoenix sat in the center. In front of the phoenix was an incense burner with a bronze altar placed atop it. However, Ding Hong did not examine it closely. He held the phoenix and placed it behind the golden phoenix statue.

“Sigh, there is no one as good as me in this world!” A true gentleman! ” After Ding Hong flattered himself a few times, he arrived in front of the golden phoenix statue.

He looked around him. The pavilion was circular, and on top of the pavilion were many dried up tree trunks. A few tiny red runes were hanging right on top of it. It seemed that the space was much smaller than it used to be.

Ding Hong looked at the ancient altar on top of the incense table. Could this be the Li Shu that Zi Shuang and the others were talking about? He reached out to pick up the altar, but as soon as he put his hand on it, he couldn’t help but let out a cry of pain. He looked at the hand that he had extended and realized that the layer of skin on it had been scorched!

However, Ding Hong did not feel the slightest bit of grief. Instead, he was overjoyed.

“This must be Li Shu!” Ding Hong said excitedly, but in the blink of an eye, he was somewhat worried. If he wanted to use this to forge the Ever-Flame Sword, where should he start from? If he were to melt it into a sword, that would be too unrealistic. If the temperature of this altar was already so high, then what could melt it?

Just as Ding Hong was worrying, he suddenly heard a conversation from not too far away.

“Senior Brother, do you think this is the place?” It was a woman’s voice. From the sound of it, it was purple frost. When Ding Hong heard this, he was alarmed and hurriedly hid behind the golden phoenix statue.

“It should be here, right? That formation just now should be the Heaven’s Pivot Array recorded from ancient times. Although it is incomplete, it is absolutely not fake.” A man replied. It was probably Ye Yu Sang.

The two of them suddenly stopped. Zi Shuang glanced at the pavilion in front of her and exclaimed, “Eh?” The moment this voice rang out, Ding Hong broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that she had discovered him.

Who knew that after Violet Shuang said those two lines, Ding Hong was so angry that he vomited three liters of blood.

Zi Shuang said, “There is an altar in this pavilion, and a very strange fluctuation was emitted from it. Ordinary spiritual energy would find it very difficult to scan the surroundings.”

Ye Yu Sang laughed and said, “What’s there to be surprised about?” He paused for a moment. “I’ve long heard that there is a miraculous altar within the Fusang Tree. I’ve heard that the Golden Crow was summoned from this altar. Presumably, this is it.”

Zi Shuang curiously asked, “Senior Brother, how did you know?”

Ye Yu Sang coughed and flattered, “You don’t even know who your senior brother is?! Half Immortal, Half Immortal, do you think it’s … Sigh, junior, don’t leave, wait for me … ”

While Ye Yu Sang was boasting about himself, Zi Shuang had already entered the pavilion. After entering the pavilion, the first thing she saw was naturally the golden phoenix statue, and then she saw the altar on top of the incense table.

Ye Yushan followed her into the pavilion. After looking at the bronze altar, he stared at the incense and sighed. “Junior sister, don’t think that the altar is the only thing in the pavilion that’s a treasure.”

“Oh?” Zi Shuang curiously asked, “Senior Brother, could it be that you know of some other treasure here?” She knew this senior of hers. Although the two of them had grown up together, they had never known his cultivation level. However, his judgment towards this treasure was peerless in the world.

Ye Yu Sang smiled, “Of course.”

He pointed to the incense table and said, “This incense table was known as the ‘Heavenly table’ back in ancient times. It has the ability to support the heavens’ will, and I don’t know how many outstanding individuals want it. Although this thing’s defense couldn’t compare to an ancient weapon like the Eastern Emperor Bell, it could still be considered a pretty good defensive magical equipment! If it were not for the fact that the Mayor of Fusang, Gu Tian Hong, is too powerful, I would have run away immediately! ”

Then he pointed at the golden phoenix statue and said, “This golden phoenix statue is also very powerful. It’s said that this golden phoenix statue is carved with the phoenix bone.”

After Zi Shuang heard this, she asked in doubt, “Isn’t the Vermillion Bird the divine beast guarding the south? Why are they here?”

Ye Yusan shrugged his shoulders and said, “How would I know? They say that it’s the Vermillion Bird’s bone. It’s not like it’s the real Vermillion Bird, the Guardian God of the South.”

The real Vermillion Bird, the Guardian God of the South?

When the two of them heard nothing, Ding Hong suddenly thought of something. The Guardian God of the South was the Vermillion Bird, while the Guardian God of the East was the Azure Dragon. The last time he had seen it, there was a scale in the easternmost area. And from the conversation between Zi Shuang and him just now, this guardian god had actually inherited it! Could it be that the so-called Vermillion Bird, Azure Dragon, and other God Beasts weren’t limited to just one?

Zi Shuang then rolled her eyes at Ye Yu Sang and said: “Now that we have found the Coffin of Li, what should we do? Could it be that you have been standing here all along? ”

Ye Yu Sang pondered for a moment and said, “That’s a problem, but eldest senior brother only told us to look around after finding it. He came back later.”

Zi Shuang rolled her eyes and whispered, “Senior Brother, I’ve practiced a new spell in the past few days, but I must use Li Huo as a guide. Why don’t I use this altar …”

Ye Yu Sang glared at her and said, “What if something goes wrong?”

Zi Shuang pursed her lips and smiled, “Didn’t something go wrong with you, Senior Brother?”

“…” Ye Yu Sang thought for a moment, then said with hatred: “Since you’ve helped me hide it so many times in the past, then I’ll help you … But you have to hurry up, if something really does happen, it won’t be good for us to stop! ”

Zi Shuang said happily, “Got it, got it.”

She stopped thinking and faced the altar. Both of her hands formed a spell sign at the same time and a white mist slowly came out of her mouth. The mist swirled above the altar and transformed into a tiny human figure. After a while, the silhouette suddenly opened his small mouth and lightly inhaled. Instantly, a slight trace of flame was sucked into the altar. As the human figure absorbed the flame, its original color started to change into the red one.

At first, the flames were very small, but gradually, the flames became larger and larger, and the person also started to be unable to endure it. The man’s face changed as he saw the situation. He quickly said: “Junior apprentice sister, quickly stop!”

Zi Shuang had also noticed that something was wrong. She released the spell in her hand and the misty figure disappeared in an instant. However, although the figure that absorbed the threads of fire had disappeared, the flames still continued to leak out. It actually floated in the air and slowly formed the image of a phoenix. As more and more flames overflowed, the figure of the phoenix also slowly grew larger.

Ye Yusan and Zi Shuang’s expressions changed as they looked at each other. The man said helplessly, “What do we do now?”

Zi Shuang smiled in embarrassment and said, “I know that senior’s cultivation level is high, so ‘you’ will definitely be able to solve this problem.”

Ye Yushan glared at her and said, “Although this altar is mystical, I have never heard of it before. “I’ve never seen anything like this happen before …”

Zi Shuang said in a daze, “Then what should we do?”

Ye Yu Sang said helplessly, “What else can we do? We can only try to put it on the altar. We can’t just let it go like this, can we?” I don’t know how many it will become in a short time. ”

Zi Shuang responded with an “En” sound. With a flick of her right hand, she retrieved a long jade-green branch from the void and pointed it at the small phoenix. A faint green ripple spread out in the air, layer after layer, spreading in the air. Soon after, it formed a huge arm and held down the phoenix, wanting to push it back down.

However, as soon as he exerted more force, the small phoenix let out a loud cry. This cry was nothing to Zi Shuang and the man, but it caused the phoenix behind the golden phoenix statue to suddenly move and wake up.

As soon as she woke up, she frightened Ding Hong. However, it seemed like the phoenix was unable to see Ding Hong. When she woke up, she frowned as she looked at her current state. She only wore a set of clothes she had seen before. Her face suddenly turned red, but when she thought back to the phoenix cry, she could not care less.

She hurriedly used her hand to bite open her finger and dripped a few drops of dark red blood onto her arm. After that, she wrote something that resembled a phoenix.

After doing all this, she suddenly pointed at the little phoenix. After being pointed at, the little phoenix let out a clear cry and suddenly broke free of her hand, flew around the golden phoenix statue, and flew into the body of the phoenix.

Ye Yushan and Zi Shuang who saw this scene, were shocked and instinctively ran towards the back of the golden phoenix statue.

However, just as they moved, they saw a phoenix twice the size as before suddenly flying out from behind the golden phoenix statue. Phoenix looked at them and gave a cry before flying out of the pavilion and hovering above it.

Even so, the fire within the altar continued to flow outwards, forming a very strange line that continuously flew towards the phoenix that was circling in the air.

Ye Yu Sang and Zi Shuang hurriedly chased after him. At this moment, Ding Hong finally revealed himself from behind the golden phoenix statue and carefully observed the altar.

Carved on the bronze altar were phoenixes and phoenixes chasing each other. Below the phoenixes, all kinds of birds and creatures were in worship.

“That girl was actually using some kind of technique to absorb the Flame Essence. Can I try to do what she did?” Ding Hong muttered to himself. He took a glance outside and realized that both of them had disappeared. He probably wouldn’t be back for a while, so he was prepared to give it a try.

Actually, he wouldn’t have dared to be so bold in normal times. However, after he wore the butterfly mask, he realized that his magic wouldn’t reveal his body. This made Ding Hong extremely surprised, and he now had another reason to rely on the mask. He hurriedly went behind the golden phoenix statue and sat down cross-legged. After a while, a little person appeared above his head. The little fellow looked exactly the same as him. However, there was a Yin Yang sword diagram bigger than the little person’s body that was slowly rotating. The little person arrived before the altar. He waved his hand and the Yin Yang sword diagram arrived before him. After that, he secretly adjusted the flow of the spirit energy between heaven and earth and drew out a thin wisp of fire, allowing the Yin Yang Array Sword Diagram to absorb it. Then, he hastily guided the wisp of fire into the weak sword shadow written on the character “Leave”.

As soon as the Flame Essence entered the sword shadow, strange patterns formed around the sword shadow, like how phoenixes intertwined with each other. Strings of flowing flames also appeared on the sword’s body, moving back and forth. It was very strange. Seeing this change, Ding Hong was overjoyed. He then separated a bit of the Flame Essence and injected it into the Yin Yang sword diagram.

After repeating this a few times, the Ever-Flame Sword on the Yin Yang Sword Diagram was still only a silhouette. It was still far from mastery. Ding Hong frowned and finally gritted his teeth. He abruptly increased the circulation speed of the Spiritual Energy of the world by a bit and directly sucked half of the Flame Essence into the Yin Yang sword diagram. However, he couldn’t stop his absorption. The flames from the altar split into two, one flying out of the pavilion and the other flying into Ding Hong’s Yin Yang sword diagram.

Seeing this situation, Ding Hong’s expression changed. He circulated his spirit energy in an attempt to change the direction of the Flame of Essence, but no matter what he could not get it back. Seeing this, he could only wholeheartedly channel the fire essence that had flown into the Yin Yang sword diagram into the Ever-Flame Sword.
