Chapter 251: Wind of the Nine Nether, Nine Seal Yuan Phoenix Crown

In the face of the black shadow’s sudden attack, the Dao Heart Clone released a spiritual shield to block its black claws. The terrifying aura collapsed the ground under his feet and even the river in front of him exploded.

Jiang Jian and the other two were pushed back by the powerful aura and all of them looked at the black shadow with fear.

The Dao Heart Clone sighed and said, “I notice that you survived alone for long and that it was not easy for you to be born, so I gave you a chance.

Unfortunately, you did not cherish it.”

He raised his right hand and a blue light sword condensed in his palm.

Divine Power, Soul Sense Divine Sword!

Whoosh!

The Soul Sense Divine Sword shot out at an extremely fast speed, piercing through the waves of the river and the black shadow at an extremely fast speed.

The black shadow trembled and the coldness was dispelled. Its body exploded and turned into surging cold black gas. Its body quickly expanded in the black fog, causing Jiang Jian and the other two to look up at the black shadow that covered the sky.

This fellow was nearly twenty thousand feet tall and had a human-like physique. It had six extremely long arms. Its claws were larger than its head and its body was completely black. Its body was embedded with blood-colored ice crystals and cold air surrounded it like mist. It covered its chest in pain as the Soul Sense Divine Sword pierced through its chest, causing it great pain.

“I’m going to eat you!”

The black shadow released an earth-shattering roar, its tone filled with killing intent and anger.

Other than its two arms that were covering its chest, it raised its other four arms and waved its claws at the Dao Heart Clone. In an instant, an unimaginable wind pressure descended from the sky, crushing the ground beneath the Dao Heart Clone’s feet into pieces. The river water also collapsed, causing the water to flood.

Jiang Jian and the other two quickly flew away from the battle.

The terrifying wind and waves were mixed with unimaginable cold air, causing the broken earth and rocks to quickly freeze. Only the Dao Heart Clone was not frozen.

“This wind is interesting.”

The Dao Heart Clone raised his right palm and slapped towards the sky. In an instant, a purple light burst out and a huge purple palm descended from the sky, hitting the black shadow’s head with unstoppable force. The terrifying force forced the black shadow to kneel down before it fell to the ground. How huge was its body? It was as if the god of creation that supported the sky had collapsed.

The black shadow released a mournful roar.

Ziwei Imprisoning Heaven Divine Dao Palm!

A figure stood above the purple palm. It was Jiang Changsheng. He held the Classic of Mountains and Seas and stamped his right hand. The purple palm shadow dissipated and he landed on the black shadow’s back. With his right foot as the center, Ice Qi spread and froze the black shadow. In less than five breaths, the huge black shadow was frozen into an iceberg as it maintained its crawling posture.

The cold air rushed towards Jiang Jian and the other two, making them shiver.

Jiang Changsheng activated the Classic of Mountains and Seas and began to absorb its soul.

Soon, the black shadow’s soul emerged from the ice and half of it was sucked into the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

He threw the Classic of Mountains and Seas into the Giant Spirit Ring and flew to the black shadow. Then, he cast the Phantom God Eyes on the black shadow’s eyes.

Jiang Jian and the other two wanted to approach, but they were stopped by the Dao Heart Clone and had no choice but to stop.

“Are you a clone of Senior, or a manifestation of some evil spirit?” Lin Haotian stared at the Dao Heart Clone and asked curiously.

The Dao Heart Clone let out Jiang Changsheng’s voice and asked, “What do you think?”

When he heard that voice, Lin Haotian touched his nose and did not dare to ask again.

Jiang Jian looked at the frozen black shadow with expectation in his eyes.

After the time for an incense stick to burn.

Jiang Changsheng canceled the Phantom God’s Eye and used the Soul Sense Divine Sword to kill the black shadow. The ice shattered and blood splattered on the ground.

The Dao Heart Clone entered Jiang Changsheng’s body and disappeared. After that, Jiang Changsheng cut off the two huge arms of the black shadow and left. Without saying a word, he quickly disappeared into the horizon.

Lin Haotian looked at Jiang Jian and asked, “Is Senior dissatisfied with us?”

Jiang Jian shook his head and said, “There’s no need to think so much. If he was really dissatisfied, he would not have saved us. As long as we can become stronger and protect Great Jing in the future, he will be gratified.”

Lin Haotian felt that it made sense. Then, he looked at the black shadow and excitedly said, “This guy feels stronger than the flying lizard. We are about to transform again!”

Jiang Jian nodded, his eyes burning with passion.

Just as he returned to the courtyard, a line of words appeared before Jiang Changsheng’s eyes.

“In the 32nd year of the Taihe Era, Lin Haotian, Jiang Jian, and Ping’an attracted the attention of the Abyss Devil. The Abyss Devil is a luck species that can manipulate the Winds of the Nine Nether. It wanted to find and devour humans. Fortunately, you took action in time to sever this karma and obtained a survival reward—Magical Treasure, Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown.”

As expected, it was a luck species!

Winds of the Nine Nether?

It seemed like the mysterious place he saw previously was very likely related to the Nine Nether.

Jiang Changsheng had used the Phantom God’s Eyes to read the Abyss Devil’s memories. The Abyss Devil might have lived for 5000 years, but most of his memories were hunting, eating, and sleeping. However, the Abyss Devil was born underground. It was a very dark underground space with clusters of cyan flames floating around, similar to ghost flames.

Other than the Nine Nether, what alarmed Jiang Changsheng the most was the mysterious figure that the Abyss Devil had encountered when he was young. The figure’s entire body was shining with white light and its physique was similar to a human. However, its physique was as tall as a hundred feet. It was impossible for ordinary humans to grow so large.

Jiang Changsheng ignored Bai Qi and Ji Wujun’s gaze and walked into the room. “I want to know how strong is the figure I’m thinking of?”

“It involves the rules of heaven and earth. For the time being, the system is unable to calculate the opponent’s strength.”

Jiang Changsheng already expected this.

Fortunately, the Abyss Devil had only met that figure once. It was precisely because it sensed the strength of that figure that it changed into a human form and was exceptionally interested in humans.

Through the memories of the Abyss Devil, Jiang Changsheng discovered that ferocious beasts could also speak human language. Moreover, their language was the same as humans. When a ferocious beast matured to a certain extent, they would automatically master this language, which made him more interested in the Great Wilderness.

Perhaps the human language was not invented, but given by some rule or existence in the Great Wilderness. According to Ji Wujun, the human race was also born in the Great Wilderness.

Relying on this language, the Abyss Devil had communicated with many ferocious beast races. However, this fellow had a reclusive nature and was cruel and murderous. It did not know how to make friends, and its enemies were all over the Great Wilderness.

Jiang Changsheng stopped thinking and began to inherit the memories of the Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown.

The Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown was formed from the feathers of an ancient primordial phoenix and contained powerful restrictions. This crown could protect its master and also summon the soul of the primordial phoenix to fight. However, the soul of this primordial phoenix was formed from its master’s spiritual energy. Even though it had an amplification effect, it could not be compared to a real primordial phoenix. In addition, wearing this crown could prevent flame damage, which was equivalent to being immune to flames!

It was a pretty good magical treasure!

Jiang Changsheng took it out. The bottom of the crown was silver, and above it was a jade statue of a phoenix with its wings spread. It was silver with traces of fire hidden in it. There was a long phoenix feather stuck in the end of the crown. It was curved and drooped, shining with light. It looked extraordinary.

Very stylish!

Jiang Changsheng began to refine the restrictions inside.

It took three days and three nights before he succeeded.

Jiang Changsheng put on the Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown and felt that his affinity with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was stronger.

He walked out of the house and sat under the Earth Spirit Tree.

Bai Qi, Ji Wujun, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian all looked at his Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown.

Bai Qi was the first to ask, “Master, what’s on your head?”

Jiang Changsheng replied, “I killed a ferocious beast and refined it into a crown.”

There had to be an explanation. He was not afraid of being suspected of lying. In any case, since he had said so, there was nothing he could do if others did not believe him.

Bai Qi enviously said, “It’s so beautiful. What ferocious beast did these feathers come from?”

“I’m not sure.”

“Is there anything in this world that you don’t know?” “Of course. Just like your heart, I can’t see through it.”

“How can my heart be so hard to guess?”

Bai Qi pretended to be shy and went to Jiang Changsheng’s side, winking at him.

A demon wolf winking at him..

Jiang Changsheng felt uncomfortable and shoved her away.

Ji Wujun stared at the Nine Seals Origin Phoenix Crown thoughtfully.

The bird on it looked like a phoenix…

Did the Dao Ancestor kill a phoenix?

Ji Wujun was frightened by this guess. The Great Wilderness was vast and mysterious, so it was not surprising to have a phoenix.

The courtyard returned to normal.

Jiang Changsheng was prepared to focus on his breakthrough, so he did not use the Abyss Devil’s claws to refine new pills.

Fengtian, in the main hall of the palace, all the officials gathered with their heads lowered. The atmosphere in the hall was extremely oppressive. Emperor Li Ya glared at the officials and tried his best to restrain his anger.

“Could it be that this Fengtian of mine is unable to rope in a genius in the Five Grotto-heaven realm?”

Li Ya shouted in a deep voice, breaking the silence.

An old official stood out, cupped his hands, and forced a smile. “In the past, it was possible. However, in order to deal with Great Jing, the former Emperor suffered heavy casualties and also lost the prestige of Fengtian. Right now, it is very difficult for Fengtian to rope in such an expert. Your Majesty, even though the Myriad Demon Saint Court has only been founded for a short time, it is said to have been founded by a Demon Saint. I’m afraid even experts in the Five Grotto-heaven realm cannot contend against it. The other three Sovereign Dynasties must know this, so they are avoiding it. In my opinion, Fengtian can only become an affiliated dynasty of other powerful Sovereign Dynasties to have a chance of survival.

As soon as he said that, the other civil and military officials immediately agreed.

In a life and death situation, they could no longer care about their aspirations.

All these years, Li Ya had been promoting the Dao of Martial Luck. It was indeed effective, but no matter how effective it was, it would take time, and the demons would not give them time.

Ever since he suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Great Jing, Fengtian had lost its arrogance. It no longer had the courage to look down on the world. From the emperor to the hearts of the people, all of them thought the same.

Now that the Myriad Demon Saint Court was coming at them menacingly, the only way the officials could think of was to surrender and ask other Sovereign Dynasties for help.

Li Ya revealed a mocking smile and asked, “Since the three Sovereign Dynasties do not dare to contend against the Myriad Demon Saint Court, who should

Fengtian rely on?”

The old official from before added, “Let’s join the Blue Sea Sovereign Dynasty. The imperial family of the Blue Sea Sovereign Dynasty has participated in the war between the Sacred Dynasty and the demons. Moreover, a general ot the Sacred Dynasty has also joined the Blue Sea Sovereign Dynasty. Be it foundation or top combat strength, the Blue Sea Sovereign Dynasty is our best choice.”

As soon as he finished speaking, other officials stepped forward.

“Your Majesty, you can go to the Sea Abyss Sovereign Dynasty. The Sea Abyss Sovereign Dynasty dominates eight seas and has been established for 4000 years. Their foundation is the strongest.”

“Your Majesty, why don’t we go to Guangtian? Even though Guangtian is far away from us, it is powerful and has the courage to advance to a Sacred

Dynasty.”

“Your Majesty, why don’t we seek refuge with Great Jing? Haven’t you met the

Dao Ancestor? In the past, Great Jing has shown great grace and benevolence to Great Qi. If you follow such a Sovereign Dynasty, the people of Fengtian will be happier.”

“I think we can go to the Cloud Forest Sovereign Dynasty. The Cloud Forest Sovereign Dynasty was once born…”

Everyone in the hall was talking at once and it was very noisy.

Li Ya’s gaze locked onto the official who expressed his wish to join Great Jing..
