409. Feng Ling’s Bloodline Returns to its Ancestral Lineage

Lin Fei took out a porcelain bottle containing the phoenix's bloodline inside the Feng family's secret chamber. This was the genuine blood of a true phoenix, incredibly precious.

In reality, Lin Fei already possessed the bloodline of a Flood Dragon within him, which even contained a trace of the true dragon's blood. Hence, he could be considered to have the bloodline of a true dragon. However, the bloodlines within Lin Fei's body were diverse. Yet, what bloodline to cultivate was entirely Lin Fei's decision.

Lin Fei had no intention of cultivating the Phoenix bloodline. It wasn't necessary. By cultivating the phoenix bloodline, he wasn't confident that he could perfect it. And a bloodline he couldn't perfect was of no use to him.

This was different for Feng Ling. She inherently possessed the Phoenix bloodline. Now, with the blood of the true phoenix, she aimed to reinforce her bloodline and attempt to trace it back to its roots. Cultivating the Phoenix bloodline from scratch wasn't easy. It wasn't something that could be perfected just by integrating any Divine Ability.

However, although Lin Fei wasn't cultivating the phoenix bloodline, it didn't mean it was useless to him. On the contrary, it had a significant purpose – to be fused with his body and enhance its foundation. Especially given the phoenix's ability to rejuvenate through fire, an ability many would covet.

In some sense, this ability was akin to immortality. However, Lin Fei speculated that every time the phoenix rejuvenated, a new consciousness would emerge. Even if the power remained consistent, the consciousness would differ. Many might desire such "eternal life", but not Lin Fei. True immortality, in his eyes, must be governed by his own consciousness. Without that, what difference was there between such existence and death?Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

Pouring out the phoenix's blood from the bottle, an invisible force seemed to support it.

"Fuse!" Lin Fei commanded. His body rapidly absorbed the phoenix bloodline, incorporating it along with the Flood Dragon's bloodline and others.

As the phoenix bloodline merged, Lin Fei's physical body enhanced at a visibly rapid pace. It was continuously evolving and had never stagnated. Having now integrated the phoenix bloodline, the transformation of Lin Fei's body would speed up.

Moreover, the Phoenix bloodline wasn't entirely useless for other bloodlines within Lin Fei. At least for those of the fire attribute, it still held a minor influence.

After Feng Ling departed, an elder of the Feng family spoke with concern, "Clan leader, you've now acquired the phoenix bloodline. Once the bloodline reverts to its ancestral form, it will certainly alert that king-level exotic beast. Why not ask the Ancient Origin Saber King for assistance? With his intervention, we might stand a chance against that beast."

However, Feng Ling shook her head.

"The last time Ancient Origin Saber King aided us, it was merely due to a trade, enabling us to collect the three hundred ice-attribute Divine Abilities. If the king-level exotic beast attacks, what can we offer the Ancient Origin Saber King in exchange?

Don't assume that just because he helped us once, he will do so again. Some matters we must face on our own. Besides, with my bloodline reverted, even if I don't challenge the Martial Gods, my strength has greatly increased. Why should I fear that peacock?"

A glint of coldness flashed in Feng Ling's eyes. The "peacock" she referred to was the Peacock King, a pinnacle king-level exotic beast. Peacocks share an intimate connection with phoenixes.

The Feng family, possessing the phoenix bloodline, was already resented by the Peacock King. Yet, due to the absence of a reverted bloodline, the Peacock King hadn't truly acted against the Feng family.

Now that Feng Ling's bloodline had reverted, it was as potent as a young, genuine phoenix. How could the Peacock King let it go? It was likely he would attack soon. However, this time, Feng Ling was resolute: she must confront the Peacock King herself.

"But..." The elder tried to interject.

Feng Ling waved him off, "Enough. I need to meditate. Leave."

"Yes, Clan leader." The elder departed, muttering to himself, "Our Feng family only has the clan leader as the Martial King. Even though she has a chance to ascend to Martial Gods after the bloodline reversion, success isn't guaranteed. We cannot allow the Peacock King to disturb her at this critical juncture."

Gritting his teeth, the elder seemed to make up his mind and quickly left the place.
