Phoenix Spirit nodded, "Although I am not a member of the 'Divine Phoenix Clan,' I also originate from the Divine Phoenix Clan. I was a 'Phoenix Feather' that was nurtured in the 'Nirvana Pool,' one of the two great treasures of the clan."
"Back then, a Void Sky True God from our clan used me and other Phoenix Feathers to forge a divine artifact, the 'Ice Snow Divine Fan.' Later, when Zhenlong Holy Land was besieged by the 'Vermilion Bird Clan' and the 'Flying Spirit Clan,' my master, the Void Sky True God, rushed to the Holy Land to join the great battle."
"Zhenlong Holy Land, as one of the ten holy lands of the Divine Phoenix Clan, was a treasure hideout. All the treasures were hidden within the Azure Blue Mansions in Zhenlong Holy Land, just like the Azure Blue Mansions you have entered now!"
"The outer mansion of the Azure Blue Mansion housed countless Dan-level treasures, the Central Mansion contained treasures of the Heavenly Saint Level, and the inner mansion even had treasures of the Void Sky True God Level!"
"With the treasure hideout being attacked, the Divine Phoenix Clan was understandably in a panic. But as the battle waged on for several years, and after losing two Void Sky True Gods, our clan was clearly at a disadvantage."
"At that time, other battles broke out elsewhere, and the other True Gods of our clan simply could not make it in time to come to the aid of Zhenlong Holy Land.
Seeing the tide had turned, my master, the Void Sky True God, scattered his 'Ice Snow Divine Fan,' dispersing thousands of Phoenix Feathers into the control array of thousands of Azure Blue Mansions, planning to escape with all the mansions."
"However, just as I entered this Azure Blue Mansion, the divine sense connection with my master broke. I knew that after the fall of two Void Sky True Gods, my master had also perished!"
"In this 'Zhenlong Holy Land' war, our side lost three Void Sky True Gods!"
"As my master perished, knowing he could no longer fend off the two clans from overrunning Zhenlong Holy Land, he released all his divine power in an explosion, propelling the thousands of Azure Blue Mansions he could control across the entire Minor Spirit Realm, unwilling to let the treasures fall into the hands of the 'Vermilion Bird Clan' and the 'Flying Spirit Clan.'"
"Although most of these treasures were still retrieved by the two ancient clans, the Azure Blue Mansion I was in was propelled to a more remote region. As a result, amidst the chaos, it fell into the hands of a Heavenly Saint."
"I am but a feather, and having been refined by my master, without his divine sense to control it, I could not manipulate this Azure Blue Mansion myself. I could only watch helplessly as this Heavenly Saint quietly took the Azure Blue Mansion back to the Lower Realm, to this Barbaric Wilderness Continent."
"That Heavenly Saint tried multiple times to break into the inner mansion, but was repelled by the guardian of the Central Mansion, the Sky-shocking Giant Spider you have encountered. It's a pity that the Heavenly Saint was quite cunning, managing to escape several times, but afterward, he no longer dared to enter the Azure Blue Mansion so casually."
"My power, too, was diminished due to the battle between my master and those ancient clan powerhouses and the final outburst, and I can only remain inside the Azure Blue Mansion, silently recuperating."
These words from the Phoenix Spirit finally made Ye Chen and Jiang Yao understand.
No wonder there were numerous treasure vaults within this Azure Blue Mansion. It turns out this Azure Blue Mansion is a treasure of the Upper Realm's 'Divine Phoenix Clan'!
No wonder they encountered such a formidable Sky-shocking Giant Spider in the Azure Blue Mansion. It turns out that the spider was the guardian responsible for defending the Central Mansion!
No wonder even the Sky-shocking Giant Spider obeyed the Phoenix Spirit's commands. It turns out that the Phoenix Spirit is a Phoenix Feather nurtured in the 'Nirvana Pool' and placed into the Azure Blue Mansion by a Void Sky True God!
As many of Ye Chen's and Jiang Yao's questions were being resolved, Phoenix Spirit turned to look at Jiang Yao and said softly, "Although my 'Divine Phoenix Clan' has been repeatedly defeated under the siege of the 'Vermilion Bird Clan' and the 'Flying Spirit Clan,' relying on the heritage of the strongest ancient clan among the six, even after several elders left, we still endured for more than a thousand years before I came to the Barbaric Wilderness Continent!"
"However, what I didn't expect was that, after more than three thousand years, I would again see someone with the blood of the Divine Phoenix Clan in the Lower Realm. Jiang Yao, you're still so young and have already come to this Barbaric Wilderness Continent.
Could it be that in the three thousand years that followed, my Divine Phoenix Clan still did not reverse the tide of defeat but instead declined even further, letting our clan's bloodline scatter to the Lower Realm!"
As she said this, Phoenix Spirit's voice betrayed an uncontrollable sorrow.
At the moment the essence blood merged with the crystal, the entire Ice Blue Crystal vibrated soundly and then burst forth with endless brilliance.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
It could be seen that on the entire hexagonal Ice Blue Crystal, all of the hexagonal sections, amidst the brilliance bursting forth, had completely turned into a flowing divine light, and at last, the entire Ice Blue Crystal was emitting divine light.
Seeing this situation, Phoenix Spirit cried out in disbelief, "The 'True Phoenix Bloodline' of the Divine Phoenix Clan!"
Ye Chen and Jiang Yao did not yet understand the significance of the Ice Blue Crystal emitting divine light in its entirety.
But as Phoenix Spirit from the Divine Phoenix Clan, of course, knew what it represented!
The hexagonal Ice Blue Crystal, with six edges, represented the six major branches of the Divine Phoenix Clan. If it were the bloodline of one of the branches, it would light up one of the six edges of the Ice Blue Crystal.
Only the most fundamental and core 'True Phoenix Bloodline' of the Divine Phoenix Clan could make all six edges of the entire Ice Blue Crystal light up, with the whole crystal emitting divine light.
But how could a clan member with the 'True Phoenix Bloodline' end up in the Lower Realm?
You see, clan members of the Divine Phoenix Clan with the True Phoenix Bloodline live in the most core 'Divine Phoenix City.' If Divine Phoenix City were lost, it would mean that the entire Divine Phoenix Clan has been annihilated.
Now, Jiang Yao with the 'True Phoenix Bloodline' appeared in the Lower Realm, could it be that after the war thousands of years ago, the Divine Phoenix Clan was completely defeated and annihilated?!
Thinking this, Phoenix Spirit was on the verge of crying out loud.
It couldn't help but look up towards the scene of Jiang Yao's birth as revealed by the Ice Blue Crystal.
As a result, it was seen that in a city with eight colossal pillars reaching the sky, each pillar carved with a splendidly unparalleled phoenix, the entire city was engulfed in rolling flames.
The flames surged to the sky, reaching tens of thousands of feet high!
At the same time, countless powerful beings with overwhelming auras took flight within the city, heading towards the vast armies standing at the edge of the great city.
It was also visible, among these myriad figures in the sky, a flying phoenix was pulling a chariot, racing across the sky, and from within the chariot, the crying of an infant could be heard!
As three peerless warriors charged towards this chariot, two figures descended from the sky, blocking the three attackers.
These two figures, one male, and one female, the man tall and muscular, the woman extraordinarily supple and beautiful, and it could be seen that the woman's complexion was somewhat pale, as if she had just given birth not long before.
This scene was only transiently displayed across the Ice Blue Crystal, but when Jiang Yao saw these two figures, her entire mind "boomed" with a thundering sound.
She knew that the crying infant in the chariot was herself as a baby.
And she knew even more that those two guarding her were her father! Her mother!
