Chapter 2042 - Heavenly Phoenix Body

Chapter 2042: Heavenly Phoenix Body Following a rip of the air, Xiao Wuchang appeared on the top of the snow mountain with the Demonic Blade Draw Portrait in tow, as he stood opposite of Mu Lingxi.
Xiao Wuchang’s gaze swept shamelessly over Mu Lingxi, and a wicked glint could not help but appear in his eyes.

What a stunning beauty, why do you choose to follow a soon-to-be-dead person. Hand over the Demonic Frenzied Dragon Portrait to me, I don’t want to hurt you.
Xiao Wuchang revealed an evil smile, his eyes filled with coveting lust.
A trace of disgust appeared in Mu Lingxi’s eyes as she said in a cold voice.
If you want the Demonic Frenzied Dragon Portrait, then it depends on whether if you have the capabilities to get it.

As she spoke, a cold aura was released from Mu Lingxi’s body. The top of the snow mountain was already extremely cold, but its temperature was dropping even more sharply.
A mighty surge of the Dark Netherfrost powers radiated from Mu Lingxi’s back, forming a pair of crystal clear ice phoenix wings. Amidst flaps, the winds howled.

A woman with character, I am more and more interested in you now. Little beauty, don’t worry, I will show mercy to you.
Xiao Wuchang laughed presumptuously.
Mu Lingxi’s gaze became extremely sharp as the saint Qi in her body roused, and blasted a palm strike towards Xiao Wuchang.
In Mu Lingxi’s palm strike, a giant vortex that was very deep appeared, semingly opening up a mysterious dimensional channel.

RAAAWRRR!

An earth-shaking bestial roar thundered as a massive beast darted out of the vortex.
It was a black python dragon covered in crystal ice scales, looking extremly lifelike and mighty.
Behind it, six other behemoths rushed out, each exuding an extremely powerful aura.
The snow-capped mountains below simply could not withstand such terrible power, and collapsed in an instant, causing a massive avalanche.

The only Tongxuan-level intermediate-level Saint Art of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect, the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics. I did not expect Lingxi to have cultivated it to great completion, and is just a step away from full completion.

Seeing the saint art that Mu Lingxi had used, Zhang Ruochen nodded to himself.
He remembered that Mu Lingxi had cultivated one of the ten great ultimate techniques of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect, the Cosmic Seal Techniques. Speaking of which, that technique was derived from the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics, and only by cultivating it to completion, and setting a foundation will someone have the hope of successfully cultivating the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics.
Like the Cosmic Seal Technique, the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics requires the refining of eight beast souls that were at least Saint King-level, the stronger the better.
Being able to refine a beast soul meant elementary, four is lesser completion, seven is great completion.
Once eight beast souls have been successfully refined, the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics would be cultivated to full completion, and its power was almost comparable to high-level Saint Arts.
And in the legends, if one were to break through the limit, and refine the ninth beast soul, and it will be able to transform the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics into a true high-level Saint Art level. However, there were barely anyone in the history of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect who had managed to reach that level.
Mu Lingxi, being able to cultivate the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactic to great completion was already very difficult.
After all, any Tongxuan-level saint art was extremely difficult to cultivate in the first place, and often needed hundreds of years to study it.

RAAAWRRR!

The seven beast souls all roared in unison as they charged towards Xiao Wuchang as a pack.
They were all of the ice-element, and nourished by Mu Lingxi’s Dark Netherfrost power, their strength became even more terrifying. As the cold aura spreads, they looked like they were about to freeze the entire place solid.

I’ll let you see, the peerless demonic exercises I have neared from the Demonic Blade Draw Portrait.

Xiao Wuchang growled as dark demonic Qi surged out from his body.
WHOOOSH!
With a wave of his hand, an extremely sharp blade light slashed at Mu Lingxi.
The black python hissed as it showed no intentions of retreating, using its body to block the blade light.
Crack!
The blade light was devastating as it smashed the ice scales on the python dragon while itself was broken in the process.
The power of the Dark Netherfrost emerged, instantly repairing the damaged ice scales. The python dragon continued to charge towards Xiao Wuchang, obviously not suffering any substantial damage.

Hmm?

Xiao Wuchang frowned slightly, as he did not expect the defenses of these ice beasts to be so powerful.
Seeing the seven ice beasts were about to encircle him, Xiao Wuchang’s body shook as a terrifying vision suddenly appeared behind him.
A tall and majestic phantom the Heavenly Demon appeared, and stood in the boundless void, holding the hilt of the blade in one hand and the scabbard in the other.
Before the blade was drawn out of its scabbard, it had already exuded an extremely powerful aura, seemingly able to cut the universe into two.
Compared to most Black Demon Realm cultivators’ demonic exercises, the one Xiao Wuchang had cultivated was even more profound and livelier, as if it was satient and instead of just a mere form.
Without a question, this was directly related to him getting the true engravings of the Demonic Blade Draw Portrait.
Whooosh!
Just when the seven ice beasts charged at Xiao Wuchang, the phantom behind Xiao Wuchang suddenly moved as the Heavenly Demon’s phantom drew the demonic blade like lightning, cutting out a terrifying blade light as the space rippled violently.
The blade instantly split into eight, the seven weaker ones were aimed at the ice beasts while the strongest one was slashed at Mu Lingxi.
BAAMM!!
As soon as the blade light made contact, the seven ice beasts all flew backwards as their scales and ice armor shattered one after another.

Childs play, you think that is comparable to the unparalleled demonic exercises of the Demonstone Engravings?
Xiao Wuchang sneered contemptuously.
Mu Lingxi’s eyes were calm, without any intention to evade at all.
In the calming vortex, a terrifying energy signature suddenly emerged, as a massive ice claw struck out from the vortex.
CRACK!
The ice claw grasped onto the blade light with absolute precision, and with a gentle pinch, shattered the blade light apart.
The next moment, a gorgeous ice phoenix, flew out of the vortex with its long tail feathers, scattering countless ice crystals in its wake.
Compared to the other ice beasts, this ice phoenix’s aura was obviously much stronger, as it faintly exuded the terrifying aura that only a Supreme Saint possessed.
Seeing the ice phoenix appear, the spectating cultivators were all shocked.

With all eight beasts coming out, Mu Lingxi had actually cultivated the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactic to full completion. This is something very rare in the history of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect.


What is the deal with that phoenix? Isn’t there no longer any trace of the phoenix clan in Kunlun Realm? There are only those descendants with phoenix bloodline, and Mu Lingxi herself is of the same bloodline, how could she act against the ice phoenix?


Except from Kunlun Realm, only the Demon God Realm have members of the Phoenix Clan living in there. Did someone went over there to kill a Supreme Saint-level ice phoenix?


To refine the soul of a Supreme Saint-level ice phoenix, and complete the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics like this, its power is truly comparable to a high-level saint art. Man, that is really enviable.

…
For a moment, all eyes were focused on Mu Lingxi.
The Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics was a powerful Tongxuan-level intermediate-level Saint Art and was extremely famous. So many of the outside cultivators had an understanding of it.
After all, many of the cultivators came to Kunlun Realm for its various top-level exercises and saint arts.
In terms of the collection of top-level exercises and saint arts, looking across the worlds under the Celestial Court, there were not many major worlds that could compare with Kunlun Realm.
And these top-level exercises and Saint Arts were undoubtedly the basis for the re-emergence of Kunlun Realm. If they were taken away, then Kunlun Realm would only continue to decline.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen had already showed a surprised look. Even he had not expected Mu Lingxi would have such a card in hand. At the same time, he was also curious about the origin of the Supreme Saint-level Ice Phoenix.

Has it something to do with the Phoenix Lake?

Zhang Ruochen guessed in his heart.

Junior sister sure is amazing. She had cultivated the most difficult to cultivate Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics to full completion. She could be considered the first person of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect to do so within the recent ten thousand years.
Bao Lie could not help but praise.
Blackie said.
Lingxi, that lissie is the first person to awaken the ice phoenix bloodline after so many years. This bit of accomplishment is nothing. If she could get the heritence of the primordial ancestors of the ice phoenixes, then it will be truly amazing.

In any case, Blackie had always been optimistic about Mu Lingxi. With enough time, her accomplishments would be astounding.
Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen could not help but to feel glad. He very much hoped that Mu Lingxi can become stronger, so she can protect herself if he was not around.
On the Black Demon Realm side, the expression of many became grim.

In our Black Demon Realm, it seems like we only have two types of Tongxuan-level intermediate saint art. Kunlun Realm’s background sure is enviable. Perhaps after taking down the Sect of the Blood God, we can go over to the Moon Worship Demonic Sect. There seems to be the true engravings Demonstone Engravings there as well.

Zuo Li licked his lips, as a scorching, avaricious look appeared in his eyes.
Crone Yinfan frowned slightly as she growled.
The Moon Worship Demonic Sect is a little weird. Not too long ago, the leader of the Heavenly Realm’s Fane of Giants, Uros, secretly led a group of elite giants to attack the Moon Worship Demonic Sect, and seize the Bronze Furnace of Life and Death, but they ran into big trouble and suffered grievious losses, and even Uros was seriously injured and had to flee.


How is it possible that someone of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect could injure Uros?
Zuo Li’s expression changed drastically.
In his eyes, all those great factions of Kunlun Realm were nothing, and he alone could sweep them aside.
But now, things were not as simple as he thought.
Uros was a top-tier powerhouse in the third level beneath a Supreme Saint, and had the most perfect Titan Giant Bloodline. His body was the strongest, and his strength limitless, few would dare to fight him head on.
To seriously wound Uros was definitely not something any ordinary person could do.
Crone Yinfan said.
In fact, it’s not just the Moon Worship Demonic Sect, many ancient sects of Kunlun Realm are all weird. A lot of people had their eyes on those sects but all were driven back with losses. I don’t know if its something left behind by the gods, or there are powerhouses hidden inside them.

The reason for that was those who had taken a beating also did not know exactly what had happened, which resulted in a lot of mystery.

Master had already told me not to underestimate Kunlun Realm. The waters here run much deeper than many thought it would be.
Mo Sheng said in a whisper.
His master, was naturally that Blackheart Demonlord.
For the Blackheart Demonlord to specifically remind him of that, it was testament to the troubles that lay in there.
Upon hearing this, the group of Black Demon Realm cultivators all mused as some changes happened silently in their mind.
BOOM!!
Mu Lingxi and Xiao Wuchang was unperturbed, as they each unleashed their powerful techniques as they exchanged brutal blows.

Her cultivation had not even reached the peak of Precept Dominion, yet how is she so strong?

Xiao Wuchang got more and more anxious as he fought.
At this moment, he had already used his demonic blade, a sacred artifact of the Ninth Radiance, and had pushed his demonic exercises to the limit, yet he could not gain any upper hand at all. Instead, he appeared to be on the backfoot, and this did not bode well.
So far, Mu Lingxi had only used a single saint art, and had not used any other techniques.

You’re unwilling to hand over the Demonstone Engravings, do you? Then, don’t blame me for this!
A wicked look appeared in Xiao Wuchang’s eyes.
His powerful demonic exercises ran as rolling demonic Qi emerged from Xiao Wuchang’s body, and infused into the Demonstone Engraving.
This Demonstone Engraving was not only his wager in the gambit battle with Mu Lingxi, but was also his strongest trump card.
Roused by the demonic Qi, the Demonstone Engraving suddenly became even more profound as the portrait engraved on its surface emerged even more clearly.
Sensing the dangerous aura released by the Demonstone Engraving, Mu Lingxi immediately changed the hand seal, unleashing an even more powerful surge of the power of Dark Netherfrost from her body, forming a massive ice wheel that spun slowly.
In an instant, all eight ice beasts flew back and merged with the ice wheel.

The Heavenly Demon draws blade, extinguishing all life!

Xiao Wuchang yelled violently as he blasted the Demonstone Engraving out.
He had already established a special connection with this Demonstone Engraving, and was able to freely manipulate it at will, so no one could ever take it away from him easily.
Mu Lingxi’s expression was solemn as she quickly formed a hand seal, and then blasted the ice wheel out.

The Cosmic Subjugation Wheel.

This move, was the killer move of the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics.
If it hadn’t been for Mu Lingxi having already cultivated the Cosmic Beast Emperor Tactics to full completion, she would not have been able to use this technique at all.
The Cosmic Subjugation Wheel flew out and spun rapidly, unleashing a majestic power that suppressed the realm.
BAAAMMM!!
Two opposing forces collided violently as devastating energy ripples appeared in the space and swiftly spread out in all directions.
Wherever the energy ripples passed through, the earth collapsed and sank rapid as countless of mountain peaks were levelled to the ground.

Fall back!

The faces of those spectating cultivators changed drastically as they fell back immediately.
Even when so far away, they still felt a great threat to them.
Some of the cultivators were unable to pull back in time, and were sent flying by the energy ripples and spat blood all over the place, literally taking a beating for nothing.
Before the Sect of the Blood God, Zhang Ruochen acted as he mobilized the power of dimensions and nullifed the shock wave of the energy ripples.
Zhang Ruochen watched the battlefield intently, being faintly worried for Mu Lingxi.
The gambit battle with the powerhouses of the Black Demon Realm was already a very dangerous thing. If it were not for Mu Lingxi’s insistence, Zhang Ruochen really did not want her to join the fray.
If Mu Lingxi were to suffer the slightest of scratches was enough to make Zhang Ruochen’s heart ache.
BAAMM!!
The Cosmic Subjugation Wheel that Mu Lingxi had blasted out was smashed into pieces, clearly unable to fight against the Demonstone Engravings.

The Demonstone Engravings reputation is indeed well-deserved. With the Cosmic Subjugation Wheel that had only just passed full completion is indeed to contend with it.
Mu Lingxi was shocked, but did not show any fear.
Upon seeing the stone tablet burst forth with a devastating force towards herself, Mu Lingxi did not hesitate as the saint Qi in her body roused as a stone rock the size of several thousand feet flew out of her sea of Qi.
To be precise, this was a Divine Planet, the same one Zhang Ruochen had given her.
The Divine Planet unleashes its majestic divine power, seemingly able to crush the heavens.
BAAAMMM!!
The black stone tablet was blocked, and while the burst of blade light was fierce, but it was unable to cut through the Divine Planet.

It turned out that this Divine Planet still contained divine power in it.
Xiao Wuchang’s expression turned very concerned.
He did not expect at all that Mu Lingxi had still have such a trump card hidden.
This Divine Planet was something Zhang Ruochen had taken from the hands of Wang Xu. It contained a shred of the star soul of the god, and if he had not gotten Yueshen to refine it, it would have been impossible for Mu Lingxi to master it.
The difference of having a star soul of the god and not was very significant.
It was precisely that shred of the star soul of the god that allowed the Divine Planet to clash head-on with the Demonstone Engraving.

Time to end this.

Mu Lingxi whispered as her hands suddenly formed an extremely mysterious hand seal.
At the center of Mu Lingxi’s brows, a lifelike mark of the phoenix appeared.
The next moment, a ice phoenix phantom over thousand feet long appeared above Mu Lingxi’s head, unleashing a vast pressure that cause people to tremble.
Seeing this Blackie suddenly exclaimed.
It’s Spirit Summoning! Lingxi, that lassie can actually perform Spirit Summoning!


What is Spirit Summoning?
Zhang Ruochen asked curiously.
He was considered well-informed, but he had never heard of the term Spirit Summoning before.
A look of excitement appeared in Blackie’s eyes, as it said.
The so-called Spirit Summoning is a technique that can be used only once your bloodline physique had reached a certain level. You can then summon a sliver of the primordial spirit from your bloodline, and use the power of the primordial spirit.


Spirit Summoning is extremely difficult, and only few could do it. Based on what I know, for the Heavenly Phoenix bloodline to use this technique, they need to culminate their Heavenly Phoenix Body, and even the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix needed one to be in a Saint King-realm to have any hopes of culminating the body. That is to say, Lingxi that lassie’s accomplishments now is comparable to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix of the same realm.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen was immediately moved. The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix was the Phoenix clan’s strongest bloodline, like the Divine Dragons of the dragon clan. Their numbers were rare, but extremely powerful.
To be able to compare to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix on the same realm, forget Mu Lingxi who only possessed part of the phoenix bloodline, even those of pure-blooded phoenixes would find it difficulty to accomplish that.
