Ascension of The Unholy Immortal-Chapter 350: Great Void Phoenix Scripture

Liang’s eyes were drawn to a faint, flickering light in the distance. With cautious steps, he approached, and as he did, the light grew brighter, revealing a towering lake.

This was no ordinary body of water. The lake emitted a vibrant, ethereal glow, casting an enchanting spell upon its surroundings.

At the center of this mesmerizing lake stood a radiant pillar of light that stretched towards the heavens. It pulsated with a strange energy that seemed to resonate with Liang’s very soul.

As Liang drew nearer, the pulsating light intensified, drawing him closer and closer. Without hesitation, he stepped onto a small, floating platform that led out into the middle of the lake.

Upon reaching the center, Liang peered into the water, expecting to see his reflection. However, what he saw instead was a something else—the reflection of his true self.

It was not the familiar face of his human form that gazed back at him, but rather a magnificent silver serpent, resplendent with two shimmering silver wings and nine flowing silver tails.

The silver scales shimmered and danced with an iridescent beauty, reflecting the radiant glow of the lake. The two silver wings, adorned with intricate patterns, were folded gracefully against his back, their tips almost brushing the water’s surface.

And there, at the base of his serpentine body, flowed nine ethereal silver tails. Each tail was as long and graceful as a river, swaying gently in the water.

Moments later, an ethereal energy erupted from the lake, swirling around Liang like a protective aura. The radiant pillar of light enveloped him, sending a surge of power coursing through his veins unlike anything he had ever experienced before.

"No! That can’t go on."

Taking a deep breath, he averted his gaze from the water. The moment he did, the strange energy dissipated.

"What a strange place. Had I not looked away just now, I am certain my bloodline source would have been severely injured," he mused to himself, his eyes flickering with a mix of awe and apprehension.

Just now, the strange energy that entered his body bypassed his dantian and headed straight for his heart, where his bloodline source resided.

"This place...where is it located?" Liang’s eyes flickered with curiosity as he tried to perceive his current location.

"Can’t do," he muttered, shaking his head. "This is not a part of our domain."

"Now, let us explore these bloodline cultivation methods." Liang’s eyes lit up with anticipation as he retrieved the second jade token.

With a flick of his wrist, Liang activated the jade token, and blinding golden runes surged from its surface. The runes danced in the air, forming intricate patterns before assembling into three separate jade slips.

Liang extended his divine sense and inspected the contents of each jade slip.

The first jade slip contained a technique known as The Nine-Tailed Silver Fox Sutra, an ancient and profound bloodline cultivation method developed by the Silver Fox Clan, an ancient race of divine foxes from the Immortal Fox Realm.

The second jade slip held something entirely different—The Great Void Phoenix Scripture, another ancient and powerful bloodline cultivation method, this time originating from the Void Phoenix Clan, a lineage of ancient phoenixes that soared through the cosmic void.

The final jade slip contained a technique that surprised Liang—The Silver Moon Serpent Scripture, a relatively newer bloodline cultivation method attributed to the Silver Moon Serpent Clan, a reclusive serpent race that once produced an Immortal Sovereign.

After carefully examining each method, Liang couldn’t resist a chuckle.

"How can three incomplete scriptures be considered bloodline cultivation methods? The Divine Spirit Palace truly put in minimal effort with this."

Despite their incompleteness, each of the three jade slips contained valuable cultivation instructions, including how to awaken latent bloodline abilities and fuse with one’s true bloodline form.

However, the problem lay in the fact that each technique only offered a cultivation path up to the Void Transformation Realm. As for how to break through to the Void Return Realm or beyond, the scriptures were silent.

Despite his disappointment, Liang didn’t dwell on it. With his extraordinary comprehension ability and the power of the Thousand Derivations Rune, he could recreate these incomplete scriptures into complete ones.

Liang pondered for a moment, his eyes flickering with thought. Finally, he set his sights on the Silver Moon Serpent Scripture.

"Since my bloodline source bears some semblance to a silver moon serpent, it makes sense to begin with this one."

With that, he closed his eyes, immersing himself in the profound mysteries of the Silver Moon Serpent Scripture.

The Scripture contained profound insights into the cultivation and evolution of serpent bloodlines—a perfect foundation for his newly acquired bloodline source.

Additionally, the scripture contained a unique ability known as the "Nine Transformations of the Moon Serpent." It allowed one to transform their physical form into nine distinct serpent forms, each specializing in a different aspect, whether it be speed, strength, or agility.

The comprehension speed Liang displayed was astonishing. In mere hours, he had grasped the essence of the Silver Moon Serpent Scripture.

Liang’s eyes flickered with excitement as he completed his comprehension.

With the Silver Moon Serpent Scripture mastered, Liang turned his attention to the other two jade slips.

He first examined the Nine-Tailed Silver Fox Sutra. The Silver Fox Race was renowned for their formidable physical bodies and their powerful divine sense, they could be considered as one of the most formidable clans among the Fox Race.

As Liang delved into the sutra, he couldn’t help but admire the insights and techniques it offered. The Silver Fox Race had divided their cultivation journey into nine distinct realms, each corresponding to the awakening of a new tail. With each new tail, the cultivator’s power and abilities would skyrocket.

Although intrigued, Liang decided to set aside the Nine-Tailed Silver Fox Sutra for now.

Next, he turned to the Great Void Phoenix Scripture.

The Great Void Phoenix Scripture described a path toward cultivating the Void Phoenix Clan bloodline. It also detailed a transformation technique known as the "Nine Nirvana of the Void Emperor." Upon reaching the completion of each stage, The practitioner would undergo a rebirth of their bloodline using the power of the outer void.

Liang spent the next several hours comprehending the Great Void Phoenix Scripture.

With a deep understanding of all three bloodline cultivation methods, Liang’s mind was filled with new possibilities.

"With my current insights, I can attempt to fuse these three cultivation methods into a more compatible one," Liang muttered to himself.

"This fox woman is truly formidable; she seems to effortlessly discern what kind of techniques will suit me ," he chuckled lightly. "In my current state, I could likely cultivate any of them."

"However, the Great Void Phoenix Scripture?" Amusement filled his voice. "This technique is exceptionally fitting. With the body, spirit, and soul of Feng Xue at my disposal, if I can refine them into my bloodline and spirit, I’ll create something akin to the Void Phoenix Race."

The more he considered it, the more appealing the prospect became. "It’s decided then—first, I’ll fuse the three techniques, and then refine the phoenix."

"Now, let us move on our next treasure of this extraordinary auction – the Thousand Realm Tree Sapling!" Xia gestured with her hand, her voice brimming with excitement. "A magical sapling that defies all expectations, said to possess the potential to evolve into a celestial tree capable of bridging countless realms."

The hall fell silent, every pair of eyes fixed on Xia as she described the wonders of this rare plant.

"The starting bid for the Thousand Realm Tree Sapling is half a billion crystals. Do I hear an opening offer?"

"Five hundred and fifty million crystals," a voice resonated from the second floor, initiating the bidding with a confident tone.

"Six hundred million," a voice quickly followed from across the hall.

"Seven hundred million," another voice chimed in, the bidding escalating rapidly.

The quiet corner where Xia stood slowly buzzed with enthralling energy.

"A billion crystals," a voice from the third floor echoed, cutting through the excitement like a thunderclap. The hall erupted into murmurs and gasps, many faces filled with awe and anticipation.

"A bold bid, indeed!" Xia voice laced with barely contained excitement. "Going once for a billion crystals!"

"Shadow Exalted? Pff, why would you desire such an artifact?" A mocking voice reverberated through the hall, its origin unknown.

"So, the Shadow Exalted was the bidder!" The crowd erupted in hushed whispers and speculations.

"The Heaven-End Pavilion is crumbling. They desperately crave this power."

"Crumbling? Ha, they’ve already hit rock bottom with but a single Void Return expert. Their might has waned considerably!"

"Two billion crystals!"

The hall instantly tuned silent once more, the latest bid echoing through the space. The bidding had escalated to astronomical heights, leaving many in the crowd breathless.

"Two billion crystals from an esteemed guest on the third floor," Xia announced, her voice steadier than her racing heart. "Do we have a bid that surpasses this remarkable offer?"

A moment of silence hung heavy in the air, tension palpable. Then, from the depths of the hall, a new voice emerged.

"Three billion crystals."
