Against The Gods
Chapter 103 – Remaining-Sisa Phoenix, Round 3

Feng Baichuan's gaze averted Lan Xueruo's gaze and said: "This little brother of yours, your skin looks so terrible and you were even taken by this young lady. You must have received a heavy injury, right? I myself have learned a little medicine, maybe I can help. ”

"My name is Yun Che, I thank Clan Leader Feng for your goodwill. '' Yun Che politely replied from behind Lan Xueruo. Her voice caused Lan Xueruo's beautiful eyes to widen: "You ... have you woken up? ”

“Yes, I woke up when senior sister leaned me. "Said Yun Che with a happy smile. Even if his complexion looked terrible, his voice was finally no longer weak. During his autumn, he used the Sky Poison Pearl and quickly fused the Skyroot Grass, Flower Nectar, together, Mountain River Plant along with thirty types of medicinal ingredients to quickly concoct the Returning Heaven Pellet. After that, he swallowed it. The amount and quality of medicinal ingredients required to refine this Heaven Return Pellet was extremely harsh. Moreover, the environment of refining, furnaces, and refining methods were all strict to the extreme. Even if it was a high-level pellet refining master, the refining success rate would not exceed thirty percent. But with the enormous treasures of the Xiao Sect Branch Sect and the Sky Poison Pearl, none of this was a problem.

"Then why... . Then why don't you say anything, and make me take you so far. "Lan Xueruo blushed in anger.

“Because this is the first time in my life I've been carried by a girl. Not only was it extremely comfortable, Senior Brother's body scent was extremely fragrant. '' When he spoke here, he originally wanted to slightly sniff Lan Xueruo's body scent, but his expression suddenly became sluggish as he stared blankly at her place ….

Is it really .....was it first brought by a girl?

In this life, it is indeed …

But, during her life in the Azure Cloud Continent ... The girl ... Every time she returned to him using her last strength and knocked on the bamboo door, she fainted in front of that bamboo door. When he woke up, he lay on a soft and warm bed.Although he was unconscious, it seemed like he could clearly feel it using his own subtle body to shoulder his bloody body. Every step he took was difficult and accompanying every step was a drop of tears …

Many times; maybe even dozens of times, or even hundreds of times. The number of times was countless and he also did not bother to count them..The only thing he remembered was that even if he lived two lives in two worlds, the two worlds would be, it was still impossible for him to make up for what he owed him. Because of heaven, no longer gave him that chance.

Suddenly, the Lan Xueruo he was hugging slowly turned into a figure that only appeared in his dreams …

"You! If it wasn't for you getting hurt, I would have thrown you away! ”Said Lan Xueruo with a little anger.when she brought Yun Che, she calmed down because she thought Yun Che was unconscious. Now that he had woken up, the feeling of his body was pressing down on his body, and the indistinct smell of the man caused his ears to redden as his heart throbbed more erratically.

"Leader of the Feng Clan, can you help me find a place to appease my friend?" Lan Xueruo asked Feng Baichuan while facing him.

"Of course, please follow me. ”

This small village was indeed a small village; there were a total of a dozen simple and crude houses. From Feng Baichuan, they learned that the entire clan was no more than two hundred people. With regards to the newly arrived Lan Xuero and Yun Che, the two outsiders, the people here were initially wary but after that, they revealed good natures. Very quickly, Lan Xuero and Yun Che were both aware of a strange fact; everyone they met were all at the tenth level of the Basic Profound Realm. Other than children who had yet to begin cultivating profound energy, they were all like this, without exception. It seemed like the tenth level of the Basic Profound Realm was their limit. But, after the nascent Profound Realm, every time one stepped onto another level, accompanied by obstacles that increasingly became difficult to break through. But from the Basic Profound Realm to the nascent Profound Realm, there were basically no barriers to talk about; as long as enough profound energy accumulated, there were no obstacles to speak of, one would naturally step into the Nascent Profound Realm.

But the people here all stopped at the tenth level of the Basic Profound Realm; this completely confused Yun Che and Lan Xueruo.

"How could this place have the essence of a Phoenix?"

Jasmine's sudden voice shocked Yun Che: "Phoenix? Primordial celestial beast, the Phoenix of legends? "

"Yes!" Jasmine's voice slightly revealed a sense of fatigue; she had previously transferred a portion of her profound energy to Yun Che. Even though it was a very short few seconds, it still caused a certain amount of damage to Yun Che's soul and body: "Although it was extremely dim, it was definitely without a doubt, the Phoenix's essence. How strange ... Could it be that the phoenix had actually descended onto this inferior plane before? ”

This lowly plane ...These words made Yun Che's heart move, he suddenly made a frightening guess about Jasmine's identity.

"And a flame imprinted on their foreheads, also a sign that the phoenix bloodline bore! But the color of this sign and the color that this princess knew, was very different. Moreover, the phoenix bloodline mark was usually hidden; only when using the power of the phoenix flames would a mark appear forcibly, did the phoenix fire mark appear, but the people here all bore the phoenix mark and it was as if they could not hide it. In short, this is too strange! "

Feng Baichuan led Lan Xuero and Yun Che to a clean hut: "You two, please calm down here. We are just a small, hidden clan. Everything we have cannot be compared to the outside world, so we can only make you uncomfortable. ”

Lan Xuero carefully placed Yun Che on the bed. Secretly sighing in relief in his heart, he turned to say: "The leader of the Feng Clan is too polite. We are so grateful to have a place like this. ”

"Are you guys the guardian clan of Pheonix Ruins?"

Feng Baichuan, who was calm and dignified until now, froze; his pupils contracted slightly. His expression quickly fluctuated as he thought about how he could deny or avoid the question. But after a few breaths of time, his expression calmed down and a seemingly self-deprecating laugh appeared: “Klan the keeper? We don't deserve that title. We simply distance ourselves from the world while carrying these sins and curses. We are just a humble clan that must atone for their sins, generation after generation. Although I don't know where you know that we have a relationship with Phoenix, but it seems .. You came here to get the so-called 'treasure' that we keep, right? ”

"Phoenixes? The heavenly beasts that the heavenly Phoenix Empire worshipped? ”As the flabbergasted Lan Xueruo looked at Yun Che and Feng Baichuan, her brain momentarily stopped working.

"No, you misunderstood. "Yun Che took a breath. He wanted to sit but his entire body was so weak that even the slightest movement would cause a piercing pain. He could only give up, and lay there as he replied: "The reason I can find out that you are probably the clan that is guarding the remains of the phoenix, is because of the mark on your forehead. I'm in touch with a lot of rumors about the phoenix bloodline; aside from the slightly different colors, the shape of the mark on your forehead and the shape of the mark I know, are exactly the same. My senior sister and I came here, was due to an accidental fall from a height. I even suffered heavy injuries from a fall, so there was absolutely no other intention. ”

The injury on Yun Che's body wholeheartedly convinced Feng Baichuan. After all, no one would be crazy enough to chase their 'treasure' with heavy injuries. Yun Che's words confused him for a while, and then he once again mockingly laughed at himself: "Phoenix printed .. different colors. His originally revered imprint that symbolized his strength and bloodline had turned into a sign of cursed grief; our ancestors made terrible mistakes, but what kind of sin are we, the younger generation doing !? ”

Feng Baichuan's words revealed a strong sense of grief; it seemed like Yun Che's words had actually pierced the point of his heartache.

Damned mark? Yun Che's heart was pounding. Blood mark, how could it turn into a cursed mark? Wait wait, perhaps the reason their profound cultivation was limited to the tenth level of the Basic Profound Realm, was because of the "cursed mark" that Feng Baichuan spoke of?

“I believe that you are not a bad person because I cannot feel any evil from your body and you have also saved my two children. However I have to repay you, is something I have to do. Just ... "Feng Baichuan took a deep breath:" Our clan is currently facing a disaster; if you want to stay here, the disaster could involve you so you have to recuperate here. It would be best if you could finish healing and leave before the dangerous people return here again. Because the next time the criminal comes, it might. ”

When he was taken on the street here, he learned what had happened earlier from the conversation of Lan Xueruo and the two children. Confused, he asked: "Leader of the Feng Clan, I have one thing that I do not understand. Your clan should have been here for many years, right? It has been years of peace, but why would a mercenary group suddenly focus on you? . ”

Feng Baichuan looked out the window and calmly replied, "What you just said is true. Our clan has been around for many years and is even prosperous for a period of time. But after inflicting the wrath of heaven, we quickly declined and had no choice but to live in isolation to survive. Right now, due to this low appearance, we cannot even compare to a small village being damaged. However, we were left undisturbed for the past few years because this area was known as the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. Every kind of profound beast was rampant; the least cruel was the Nascent Profound Beast, and the most terrifying was the Profound Earth Beast. And it was even rumored that there were three monstrous Profound Sky Beasts living within this mountain range. This was a deep beast paradise. They rejected the humans who set foot into this place; they would gather together to attack if humans entered the area. At the same time, the deeper you go, the higher the level of a savage beast. ”

"As for this place, it is the entire center of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. Some humans could operate around the borders of this Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to obtain the profound beast cores but aside from those who were extremely powerful, basically no one had the courage and ability to arrive in this region. That and the extremely powerful ones who possessed such abilities would not come to such a trivial place. ”

"But it doesn't seem like any wild beasts live near here?" Yun Che frowned, as soon as he finished speaking when he suddenly realized: "Could it be because ... of the Phoenix essence?"

"really. "Feng Baichuan nodded:" To be honest, the Phoenix Ruins that we have guarded for generations are behind this area and contain the remaining phoenix essence that it left behind. Although its essence was weak, it never scattered. In this world, which ferocious beast was able to withstand the prestigious pressure of the Primordial Demon God? Who would dare to approach? "

“So like this. ”

Yun Che slowly nodded and his facial expression fluctuated slightly. This place actually has Phoenix Damage. Not only that, the Phoenix essence never dispersed. The best explanation was that this was the place where the Phoenix Damage lived, and it was something the Phoenix had left behind!

Something left behind by a Primordial Divine Beast!

The blood all over Yun Che's body started to boil as he only thought about this.

"Because this is the case, then how do the bad guys who want to snatch the goods you keep come in?" Yun Che asked. It was absolutely impossible for a normal mercenary group to have the strength to face a deep ferocious beast; and even more so than the beast realm. Forget about a hundred people, even if the scale was ten times larger, meeting a real-world beast would result in a completely annihilated outcome.

Considering the density of these thousand Vast beasts in the Mountains walking on the road without encountering a large spirit beast or a real world savage beast was even more impossible.

"I don't know. "Feng Baichuan shook his head:" I want to know more than anyone else how they managed to enter this area. Perhaps this is the fate we deserve. ”

Could it be that they borrowed the strength of a ferocious beast that could fly so high? Yun Che muttered to himself, but he immediately rejected this conjecture. This Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range had a countless number of ferocious beasts. It was inevitable that there were a large number of ferocious beasts flying between them so even if they were to use normal flying ferocious beasts, it was still impossible to enter. This could only be done by the deep savage beasts at the level of the Fierce Storm Hawk and the Giant Snow Eagle, capable of flying thousands or even ten thousand meters. But due to the terrible difficulty in controlling them, the number of people who had the ability to handle them was too few. Even the Outer Sect of Xiao Sect, the strongest sect of New Moon City, only had one, so how could this group of ordinary mercenaries have one.
