822 Spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix

On Sky Sigil Peak, Lin Feng, Zhao Chuanlong, and Ouyang Bingyu successfully passed through the layers of arrays and arrived at the summit of Sky Sigil Peak. Even Lin Feng was amazed by these arrays.

They were simply too powerful. If he had not obtained the legacy of Perfected Lord Sky Sigil from Bingyu and gained some understanding of the arrays of Sky Sigil Peak, charging in by force would mean certain death.

Even advanced Chaotic lifeforms, or even peak Chaotic lifeforms, would definitely die.

“Perfected Lord Sky Sigil is indeed worthy of being a Perfected Lord-level expert. These arrays are truly powerful!”

Lin Feng looked at the peak. There was a magnificent palace standing tall in the clouds, surrounded by clouds, like a paradise. This was where Perfected Lord Sky Sigil cultivated.

Even after so many years, this palace was still spotless.

“Open!”

Ouyang Bingyu came to the door and shouted loudly, before gently pushing it open.

Inside the door, it was magnificent and covered densely in ancient array patterns. In fact, all the arrays on Sky Sigil Peak had a core, and that was this palace.

“Perfected Person Lin, Perfected Person Zhao, I’ve already been to this palace before and plundered some treasures. There’s only one secret chamber that I can’t open.”

Ouyang Bingyu led Lin Feng to a secret chamber.

“There’s an array?”

“No, but…”

Ouyang Bingyu smiled weakly and said, “There’s a Chaotic lifeform…”

“Chaotic lifeform?”

Lin Feng was a little confused. Then, Ouyang Bingyu flicked her finger, and a stream of flames flew towards the door.

Buzz.

The surrounding space seemed to have distorted all of a sudden. Lin Feng knew that this was just an illusion, but an enormous force descended at once.

A giant, flaming bird appeared out of thin air. It let out a soft cry and swallowed the flames in one gulp.

Swoosh.

The giant flaming bird looked at Lin Feng and the others at once. Immediately, even Lin Feng felt a trace of pressure.

“This is the natural Chaotic lifeform, Flaming Divine Phoenix?”

Things had changed since Lin Feng had first entered Chaos, when he was ignorant about everything. At the very least, he still knew about such famed Chaotic lifeforms.

Ordinary Flaming Divine Phoenixes were natural Chaotic lifeforms. Once they matured, they would be comparable to peak Chaotic lifeforms, and were very terrifying. In fact, the kings of the Flaming Divine Phoenixes might even be comparable to true Perfected Lords. Once they appeared, it would mean calamity for the Chaotic continent.

Such a legendary divine bird could only be seen in myths. As for its true form? No one had ever seen it. If they encountered such a divine bird in the Chaos, they would run as far as they could.

“No, this isn’t the Flaming Divine Phoenix!”

Lin Feng suddenly felt that something was amiss. If it were the Flaming Divine Phoenix, he would naturally run as far as he could. But now, although he also vaguely felt a sense of threat, it did not seem to be that oppressive, unlike a peak Chaotic dire beast.

“It’s indeed the Flaming Divine Phoenix. However, this is not its true form, but the spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix!” Ouyang Bingyu said coldly.

“Spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix? No wonder it’s not as threatening as those peak Chaotic lifeforms…”

Lin Feng understood now. Even the spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix was not something Ouyang Bingyu could deal with.

“Perfected Person Ouyang, is it this trace of spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix what prevented you from entering the secret chamber?”

“That’s right. The spirit of this Flaming Divine Phoenix is too strong. It’s probably infinitely close to an advanced Chaotic lifeform. I’m far from its match. If not for the fact that it can’t leave the range of a hundred feet of the secret chamber, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to escape.”

Ouyang Bingyu said with a resigned smile. It seemed like she had also tried to enter this secret chamber previously. Unfortunately, she was deterred by the Flaming Divine Phoenix, and could not enter at all.

“This secret chamber must be very important to Perfected Lord Sky Sigil if he left the Flaming Divine Phoenix to guard it. In that case, let me give it a try.”

A sharp glint flashed across Lin Feng’s eyes. Then, he took a step forward, and his figure instantly appeared within ten feet of the secret chamber.

Immediately, the spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix let out a loud cry. It spread its wings and flew in front of Lin Feng in the blink of an eye.

“Heaven Turning Seal!”

Lin Feng did not dare to let his guard down at all. He used his strongest martial art, the Heaven Turning Seal.

Moreover, he unsealed all three Chaotic Holes in his body at once. Otherwise, he could not be certain in dealing with this trace of spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix. Even so, Lin Feng was not completely confident.

Boom.

The Heaven Turning Seal collided fiercely with the Flaming Divine Phoenix. The Flaming Divine Phoenix was sent flying at once. The power of the Heaven Turning Seal was not that easy to withstand. However, at the same time, a strand of flames actually appeared on Lin Feng’s hand, and quickly ignited, spreading towards Lin Feng’s body.

These were Chaotic flames. They could burn anything, even the cosmic membrane from back then. Lin Feng’s mount, Ao, needed a long time to accumulate Chaotic flames. As for the Flaming Divine Phoenix, it was born with the ability to control Chaotic flames, and did not need to accumulate it at all. Just the difference in their Chaotic flames alone was huge.

Hence, the Flaming Divine Phoenix was also far stronger than Ao, and could even be considered Ao’s nemesis. This was because Ao’s strongest technique, the Chaotic flames, was completely useless against the Flaming Divine Phoenix.

“Retreat.”

Lin Feng’s arm was instantly severed. Chaotic lifeforms were energy lifeforms to begin with. Their bodies were composed of a huge amount of energy. If he severed his arm, he would only lose some energy. It was not a big deal.

However, Lin Feng had lost in this head-on clash.

This was the first time Lin Feng had lost in a head-on clash since becoming a Chaotic lifeform.

“Perfected Person, are you all right?”

Zhao Chuanlong was very nervous. He immediately went forward to check on Lin Feng.

However, Lin Feng shook his head and said, “I’m fine. The Chaotic flames of the Flaming Divine Phoenix are indeed very powerful. Even if it’s just a wisp of spirit, it’s not something ordinary Chaotic Perfected Persons can deal with.”

Ouyang Bingyu frowned and said, “Even Perfected Person Lin can’t do anything? Looks like I can only wait until I have some success in cultivation in the future, and come again in another hundred years.”

Ouyang Bingyu felt a little regretful. If even Lin Feng could not deal with this wisp of soul of the Flaming Divine Phoenix, would she definitely be able to deal with it in another hundred years? It probably would not be so easy.

Moreover, who knew what would happen in the next hundred years?

“The Flaming Divine Phoenix is indeed very powerful, but it’s not impossible to deal with.”

Lin Feng already had a plan in mind. In reality, although he had lost just now, he was actually also testing the power of the Flaming Divine Phoenix. This wisp of spirit of the Flaming Divine Phoenix was indeed very strong, but it was not so strong that even Lin Feng could not deal with it.

No matter how strong it was, as long as it had not reached the level of an advanced Chaotic lifeform, Lin Feng had a way to deal with it.

Swoosh.

Lin Feng’s figure flashed, and he stepped into the range of 100 feet of the Flaming Divine Phoenix again. Immediately, the Flaming Divine Phoenix pounced towards Lin Feng again.

“Spirit Suppression Bell, suppress!”

Lin Feng deployed the Spirit Suppression Bell. With a clang, the bell rang. The Flaming Divine Phoenix was ultimately just a wisp of spirit. Confined by the Spirit Suppression Bell, its body stiffened all of a sudden.

“Heaven Turning Seal!”

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Feng used the Heaven Turning Seal and struck the Flaming Divine Phoenix hard.

Boom.

The body of the Flaming Divine Phoenix was shattered at once, turning into scattered flames. However, Lin Feng did not smile in joy. Instead, he frowned slightly.

This was because he actually could not kill this Flaming Divine Phoenix. The Heaven Turning Seal had shattered the body of the Flaming Divine Phoenix’s spirit, but the other party quickly recovered.

Clearly, within a hundred feet of this secret chamber, the Flaming Divine Phoenix seemed to have been enhanced by some array, and was temporarily undying.

“Spirit Suppression Bell, suppress!”

Lin Feng took out the Spirit Suppression Bell again. With a clang, it confined the Flaming Divine Phoenix. At the same time, Lin Feng did not use the Heaven Turning Seal. Instead, he mobilized the cosmic power in his body, and enveloped the Flaming Divine Phoenix with it almost imperceptibly.

Swoosh.

In an instant, the Flaming Divine Phoenix had disappeared.
