Chapter 382: Chapter 253: Breakthrough in the Secret Realm, The Power of the Immortal Phoenix Hatchling! (Seeking monthly tickets, subscriptions!)_2

With a single thought, flames circulated and spontaneously materialized a metallic barbecue grill – a grill that was nine feet long.

Shu Xiaoxiao looked at Birdy Huang in surprise.

This scene clearly demonstrated that the little Immortal Phoenix’s mastery over the Law of Five Elements surpasses that of Jiang Yuan.

She transformed fire into metal directly, in contrast to the basic rules.

However, considering her identity as a heaven’s genius from the Phoenix tribe in the upper realm and her rebirth via nirvana after an unexpected fall, it was not surprising at all.

After considering her identity and background, Shu Xiaoxiao no longer found it surprising.

But, she couldn’t help but ponder. If this little Phoenix chick had such grand potential, will the Young Master still need her once it matures?

A sense of crisis suddenly stirred in Shu Xiaoxiao’s heart.

Without wasting any more time, she strung the prepared spiritual cane onto the grill.

Birdy Huang ejected divine phoenix fire and started roasting the spiritual crane.

Shu Xiaoxiao entered a state of cultivation, with Earth fire gathering towards her rapidly.

Soon it was devoured and refined by her, allowing her cultivation level and magical powers to continuously increase,

…

Half a day later.

Jiang Yuan opened his eyes and assessed the changes in his body.

The superior, fifth-rank Spiritual Essence Pill enabled his magic power accumulation to increase from 75% to 77%.

It is good, Jiang Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

At this rate, he will need a dozen more pills to break through to the Dharma Realm.

The refining process for these dozen Spiritual Essence Pills will only take a few days.

Thinking this, Jiang Yuan prepared to continue his cultivation.

Just then, sensing that Jiang Yuan woke up, Birdy Huang quickly moaned, “I can’t do it anymore, I’m going to die!”

Jiang Yuan looked up and saw that the spiritual crane had been roasted to a golden brown and a tempting aroma was spreading in the air.

But, Birdy Huang lay on the ground as if she had faced a massive defeat, her mouth constantly exhaling Divine Phoenix Fire.

The Divine Phoenix Fire now flickered unpredictably, seeming ready to fade away any moment.

Immediately Jiang Yuan understood why she made such comments.

For the just-hatched bird, having to continuously emit Phoenix Divine Fire for a half day was, indeed, a challenge.

Then he smiled, “Leave the rest to me!”

With a thought,

Sun Fire emerged from thin air. Under Jiang Yuan’s control, it precisely roasted every part of the bird, making it even more delicious.

“The master is so kind!”

Birdy Huang lay flat on the ground, looking utterly exhausted.

Meanwhile, the entire crane was changing rapidly under the Sun Fire’s heat.

Droplets of golden fat condensed and dripped down, igniting into bright flames.

Under Jiang Yuan’s Sun Fire, the second layer of the Dharma Realm spiritual crane was roasted golden brown and crispy in just two hours.

Jiang Yuan retracted his magic, and then woke up Shu Xiaoxiao.

“Young Master, is it ready?”

She wiped the saliva at the corner of her mouth.

With the aroma spreading in the air, she couldn’t resist her mouth from salivating.

“It is ready!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

“Wow, that’s great! We can start eating now.”

The exhausted Birdy Huang suddenly became lively, flapping her wings excitedly and expressing her delight.

“Birdy Huang, were you pretending just now?”

“No, no!” Birdy Huang waved her wings from side to side, “I was seriously at my limit!”

After saying this, Birdy Huang’s feet turned soft and she fell on the ground lifelessly.

“That just now was my final burst of energy! I will die if I don’t eat something!”

Jiang Yuan was speechless after hearing this.

Shu Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh softly. She then used her sword to cut a piece of meat and tossed it to Birdy Huang.

“Eat up!”

“Older Sister is so kind! Not only are you gorgeous, but you also have a good heart!”

Birdy Huang excitedly extended her claws to catch hold of the piece of crane meat. As she heartily ripped the meat with her beak, she muttered to herself excitedly.

“Delicious, so delicious!”

“Oh, so delicious!”

Jiang Yuan also put a large piece of the crane in his mouth and took a bite.

A thin layer of fat on the skin exploded, mingling with the meat and saturating his entire palate.

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, “Indeed, it is delicious!”

Shu Xiaoxiao also nodded again and again!

The two of them ate rapidly, like a wind sweeping away the clouds.

Birdy Huang had just finished eating the ten-centimeter-long piece of crane meat in her hand when she looked up.

She immediately let out a loud cry.

“I… I only ate so little, and you guys have already eaten up thirty percent of it?”

The next moment, another piece of meat flew towards her.

She quickly raised her claws to catch it.

“If you don’t eat now, there won’t be any left soon!”

Seeing this, Birdy Huang didn’t dare to speak and put in all her effort to eat “dut dut dut”.

Two hours later.

“All gone, all gone!” Birdy Huang muttered with her mouth full.

Her body was lying on the rock, with her stomach sticking straight up.

Jiang Yuan patted her stomach.

“Little chunky, look at your belly, if you keep eating, your stomach’s going to explode.”

“I’m not chunky, I’m slim!”

“If you’re not chunky, then look at your belly!”

Birdy Huang looked down.

“Wow——”

“I’m really chunky!”

Jiang Yuan held out the last piece of crane leg in his hand and said, “Chunky, I still have some here, do you want more?”

“No more! I don’t want to be chunky!”

Birdy Huang immediately refused.

She then stood up, flapping wildly in the air, attempting to quickly reduce the size of her stomach.

Jiang Yuan chuckled, quickly finishing the last bit of Spiritual Crane meat in his hand in a few bites.

Shu Xiaoxiao also gave her slightly bulging stomach a rub: “Young Master, a second-tier Dharma Realm monster really is different. I can’t digest it all at once.”

Jiang Yuan nodded empathetically.

“This is the first time your stomach has bulged so high; it looks like you’re two to three months pregnant.”

Shu Xiaoxiao suddenly blushed and gave Jiang Yuan a look.

Upon seeing Jiang Yuan’s gaze, she quickly said, “Young Master, I’m going to refine these blood and meat essences. I feel like I’m not far from the sixth level of the Divine Bridge Realm!”

After saying this, she quickly closed her eyes, not daring to make eye contact with Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan smiled lightly, this girl was really shy!

He also closed his eyes and began to refine the essence in his stomach.

With an uncluttered mind, Jiang Yuan’s body seemingly turned into a furnace in an instant. His qi and blood were surging, and the meat and blood essence in his stomach was quickly refined by him.

Time passed slowly.

The following day.

Shu Xiaoxiao successfully broke through the second level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

Jiang Yuan detected this fluctuation but did not wake up. Instead, he continued to seize the time to refine these blood and meat essences.

He could feel that if he completely refined the blood and meat essence of the Spiritual Crane, a second-tier Dharma Realm monster, his dharma-power would reach a level where it would be impossible to progress further, compressed to its limit.

At that time, it would mean that he has reached the peak of the Divine Bridge Realm with nothing left to progress.

That would be his time to break through to the Dharma Realm.

…

Outside the secret realm.

Another seventh-tier Dharma Realm Spiritual Crane watched as one after another human cultivators appeared, its eyes gradually turning cold.

Something has happened!

It was absolutely certain of this in its heart.

Not only had there not been a single monster appearing so far, but more importantly.

In the span of one day, eighty percent of the human cultivators have come out of the secret realm.

According to the crowd that came out, it was clear that these human cultivators had not been hunted down.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been so intact!

At the same time.

Pan Hua heard the words secretly told to him by his junior sister.

He was greatly shocked in his heart.

His junior brother had surprised him time and time again.

He even withstood the primordial spirit secret technique of a second-tier Dharma Realm monster and killed it!

Could it be that the primordial spirit secret technique that Senior Brother Bei Heng had given to him had been successfully cultivated by him?

It must be so!

Otherwise, how could he, a mere ninth-tier Divine Bridge Realm cultivator, withstand the primordial spirit secret technique of a second-tier Dharma Realm monster!

One could not help but wonder what rank of primordial spirit secret technique Senior Brother Bei Heng had given to him!

Pan Hua wondered to himself in his heart.
