Chapter 194: Vermilion Bird’s destruction and Golden Winged Phoenix
The Vermilion Bird gave a nostalgic look at the world she would be leaving forever as her body slowly melted into the flames.
The colourless flames burned like crazy, flying at them with one final mournful cry from the Vermilion Bird.
In Fire God City, everyone’s movement stopped. It was because just now, the air had become scalding hot. It even made those who were used to the heat unable to breathe for a moment.
In the palace, the Flame Emperor was awakened from his thoughts as an intense pain filled his head. He quickly took the Fire God Knot off his head and was shocked to find that the Vermilion Bird’s figure was gradually becoming dimmer. Then the Fire God Knot turned into flames as it was burnt to ashes in his hands.
This……Could it be……Could it be……
The Fire Emperor’s heart trembled. He didn’t dare hesitate as he rushed towards the Death Volcano.
The indescribably hot wave of air hit the two people and one phoenix. The colourless flames created a thirty meter area that completely submerged them in the flames.
“Big brother……” Feng Yao’s clothes instantly started disappearing, but she wasn’t injured at all. Her long black hair danced in the colourless flames as if it was wind and not flames!
She looked for her big brother’s figure with a hopeful look, not willing to believe that he would be instantly turned to ashes.
She found him and around his body was a glow that was even more transparent than the Soul Flames.
The little phoenix let out a sad cry from the flames, as if it was mourning the dying Vermilion Bird. Its body was also growing at a shocking rate in the flames.
Feng Xiao was in a very strange world. As the unimaginably hot wave of flames hit him, he raised the Xuanyuan Sword in front of him to accept the baptism. He had thought that his body would be burnt away, but……the Chaos Energy inside of him wildly started to rotate.
“Ding, you have successfully unlocked the Xuanyuan Sword’s fourth seal……”
Hearing the faint prompt, his heart finally fell down and he began focusing on the feeling of the fire elemental energy entering his body.
The powerful soul flames couldn’t escape the fusion ability of the Chaos Energy.
When it touched the light that surrounded him, the fire elemental energy was instantly absorbed and entered his body. The fire elemental energy didn’t burn him at all when it was changed and compressed by the Chaos Energy, rather it gave him a very comfortable feeling.
“I can actually accept the primordial flames of the sun!”
“Ding! You have successfully taken the baptism of the Soul Flames. Fire Resistance +100%, Heat Resistance +100%, Burn Resistance +100%.
With the system’s prompt, the flames in the thirty meter range around him disappeared and the temperature dropped at a shocking rate.
With the death of the Vermilion Bird, without the support of the powerful fire energy, the Death Volcano slowly started to change colours.
Seeing the giant green figures appearing above his head, Feng Xiao didn’t know what to feel right now.
The Xuanyuan Sword’s fourth seal was released, his fire and heat resistance had broken the limit of what was possible for humans, which means that he no longer needed to fear fire magic or heat.
But the price was the sacrifice of the Vermilion Bird.
Was this really worth it?
The Vermilion Bird, the Sacred Beast that guarded the south. Its power had already been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the Heavenly Dragon Continent’s citizens and no one had ever doubted it. To form this Death Volcano from nothing, just how much fire energy was needed?
Empress Shui Yue stating that she could destroy a country definitely wasn’t an exaggeration.
But now, the guardian Sacred Beast that the people of the south believed in had simply passed away, not leaving behind a single trace. Out of the qilin and four protective beasts of the Heavenly Dragon Continent, there was only the qilin and the guardian beasts of the east, west, and north left.
Was the Vermilion Bird forever lost like this?
Feng Xiao shook his head. He suddenly felt that he was very dissatisfied with this ending.
Wait……
He had unconsciously used his Chaotic Energy here! What was going on! This was clearly the game world!
With a bit of shock, he focused his mind and started channeling the Chaotic Art. With a bit of hope and a bit of doubt, he failed and couldn’t bring out a trace of the Chaotic Energy.
Was it a mistake?
“Big brother!”
Feng Yao came forward to hold him with a face filled with joy and pride. He really was her beloved most powerful big brother, he was completely fine.
But why was she also fine? Was it because of the little phoenix?
Qiu~~~
With a long cry, the golden phoenix had become half the size of the Vermilion Bird. Its golden body was five meters long and its golden phoenix tail was over ten meters long. Every feather on its body was a dazzling golden colour and the golden light released a sacred beauty.
“God……Big brother, this is a phoenix, it’s a real phoenix! So beautiful……”
Hearing Feng Yao’s praise, the little phoenix let out a happy chirp as its giant body circled around her head.

“Yao’er, did this little phoenix take you as a master?” Feng Yao had changed her clothes and the spring scenery that made his mind wander disappeared.
“Un! When it fell onto me, it recognized me as a master……Moreover, I have a very strange relationship with it. When I hug it, I feel very safe, as if I’ve retrieved the most precious thing that I’ve lost.” Feng Yao looked at him before looking at the little phoenix in the sky with a look of doubt and joy.
The same doubt was in Feng Xiao’s head. According to what Wan’er said, the Soul Flame could burn everything in the world and even sacred beasts would be burnt away, so why couldn’t it hurt Yao’er……Why!
Feng Xiao gave a nod and no longer questioned it as he pulled his equipment out of his inventory. All questions would be answered in time.
The area around them went from white to purple, purple to blue, before finally turning to red. With each colour change, it meant that the might of the flame had decreased. Looking into the distance, the sky was no longer as red as before.
Heavenly Dragon Imperial Palace. Master Zhang Tian who was in front of Empress Shui Yue suddenly trembled as a look of shock and disbelief appeared on his face.
“What is it?” Empress Shui Yue saw the change with him and looked up to ask this.
“How is this possible! How is this possible!” Master Zhang Tian acted like he didn’t hear Empress Shui Yue’s question. His trembling hands pulled out a talisman and his expression completely froze.
He even thought that he was in a dream.
“Just what has happened?” Empress Shui Yue’s fine brows knitted a bit. She had never seen the all knowing master Zhang Tian acting this nervous and lost.
Master Zhang Tian still hadn’t recovered yet as he slowly raised his hand to show her the talisman.
On the talisman were the symbols of water, flame, lightning, and sand. The ice was flowing, the lightning was pulsing, and the sand was still moving. Only the flames had completely turned gray, without any signs of burning.
“This……What does it mean?” Empress Shui Yue felt unnatural at this moment.
“The Vermilion Bird……is dead!”
“What!” Shui Yue suddenly stood up.
