Cultivation Helped by Ancestors-Chapter 326 - 270: Phoenix Spirit Opportunity

Vermilion Phoenix Mountain

In the Vermilion Bird Position, Phoenix Spirit has been guarding the Four Symbols Hidden Dragon Array for several years, using the array to absorb Phoenix Essence Qi from the Phoenix Feather and comprehend the mysteries of Phoenix Nirvana.

At this moment, her whole body is enveloped in intense Phoenix True Flame, surrounded by a layer of pitch-black blaze, which is a layer of Ghost Phoenix True Flame.

She furrowed her brows; she had long crossed four of the Five Tribulations of the Yin Spirit, but she couldn't pass the Fifth Tribulation, the Reincarnation Life and Death Tribulation, unable to comprehend the secret of reversing life and death.

But fortunately, she found a glimmer of hope from the thread of vitality within the Phoenix Feather.

Just then, Phoenix Spirit, who was in seclusion in the Vermilion Bird Position, was suddenly startled as she saw a golden light break through the void from the depths of the Void Dharma Realm.

This golden light moved at incredible speed.

In the blink of an eye, the figure reached the front of the Four Symbols Hidden Dragon Array.

The 'Four Spirits' guarding the array sensed it instantly but did not react until they confirmed the visitor's identity.

From the golden light, Zhang Jian's Yang Spirit stepped out, as if walking out of the sunlight.

Majestic Yang God Divine Sense enveloped the 'Four Spirits'!

"Ah Yu?"

Bai Nu's figure suddenly emerged, looking at Zhang Jian with astonishment.

Phoenix Spirit also manifested her true form, clad in a Nether Phoenix Robe, her long hair like ink, phoenix eyes revealing a bright vitality, surrounded by a thriving power.

"Young Master..."

Phoenix Spirit still used the old address, but after a slight pause, she smiled and bowed gracefully.

"Lord!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's expression moved, and then he laughed heartily.

"Phoenix Spirit, please rise quickly!"

Beside him, Bai Nu watched this scene and smiled lightly. After this young son-in-law surpassed the Phoenix Nest Mountain God in Dao Practice, the Mountain God finally showed a posture of subservience.

Zhang Jian noticed that Bai Xianyin and White Turtle seemed to still be asleep, apparently using the Four Symbols Hidden Dragon Array to purify and cultivate, purifying their bloodline.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Jian summoned Phoenix Spirit to his side.

"Phoenix Spirit, I see your Dao Practice seems to be constantly hindered by the Reincarnation Life and Death Tribulation, unable to reverse the True Phoenix Body for Nirvana. Is it due to insufficient magical power, not enough accumulation, and thus unable to perform Nirvana?!"

Phoenix Spirit slightly nodded upon hearing this.

"Lord, you are not wrong, but it's not just that; fundamentally, I cannot thoroughly comprehend the mysteries of the Phoenix Dharma Aspect to reverse the Ghost Phoenix imprint within my body to a Phoenix imprint!"

Phoenix Spirit's beautiful eyes showed a hint of pity.

Falling from a Phoenix body to a Ghost God was indeed her life's regret!

In fact, given her foundation, even with just the Ghost Phoenix body, she could have already challenged the Fifth Tribulation of the Yin Spirit, the Reincarnation Life and Death Tribulation, and become a Primordial Spirit Master.

After all, an Innate Ghost King by nature is quite extraordinary, not inferior to a Divine Beast.

But regaining her Phoenix body was her lifelong pursuit, so she did not want to give up this only hope.

That's why she hoped to seize this opportunity, the only opportunity, to cultivate into the authentic True Phoenix Body again.

For a Phoenix who values purity, transforming into a Celestial Ghost Body was indeed a huge desecration and fall.

Thus, she also was unwilling to connect with the Phoenix Divine Beast race according to tradition and flock together.

Zhang Jian nodded upon hearing this.

"Very well, today I happened upon a supreme treasure, which might assist you! It may help you to condense the True Phoenix Body ahead of time!"

Zhang Jian smiled slightly, then took out the Phoenix Jade in his hand.

Looking at the red jade in his hand, a smile appeared in Zhang Jian's eyes. This Phoenix Jade was also his way of returning a favor for Phoenix Spirit's proactive investment in serving as a Dharma Protector for her.

A stream of magical power circulated in his hand, and the Phoenix Jade immediately turned into a beam of red light that entered the depths of Phoenix Spirit's forehead.

Phoenix Spirit herself was transformed by an innate Phoenix Spirit; as the Phoenix Jade entered her body, her Phoenix form was involuntarily drawn and manifested.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Jian released the Map of Mountains and Rivers, enveloping the anomalies in Vermilion Phoenix Mountain within his magical power.

"Ah Yu?"

Witnessing this, Bai Nu's eyes also showed some change, and he couldn't help but look astonished.

He could see clearly that the Phoenix Jade was swirling with treasure light, unusually intense; at a glance, it was not an ordinary item.

Zhang Jian said with a smile, "This was an unexpected gain for me, the essence qi of a member of the Phoenix race's great power after their Nirvana in ancient times!"

As the Phoenix Jade entered her body, Phoenix Spirit's grand true form was surrounded by a nine-colored divine fire, and the Nirvana Divine Flame inside was more blazing than ever, a rich Holy Divine Charm blooming from the surface of the Phoenix True Body.

The nine-colored divine fire around her rose higher, the majestic spiritual pressure enveloping the entire Vermilion Phoenix Mountain.

If not for the Map of Mountains and Rivers covering it, such an anomaly would likely alarm the entire Fengyang County.

After the Phoenix Jade entered her body, Zhang Jian's vast Yang God Divine Sense could sense that the Phoenix Dao Rhyme emanating from the vast Phoenix body was becoming richer, and the ghostly qi mechanism within Phoenix Spirit's Yin Spirit body was gradually diminishing, nearing complete refinement.

Her magical power within was also constantly growing, and the Phoenix bloodline began to awaken and burn.

Several Phoenix Divine Acupoints on the True Phoenix Body had already connected through; upon closer look, the Ghost Phoenix body was approaching a real flesh body!

Moments later, Phoenix Spirit converged her True Phoenix Body, transforming into a stream of nine-colored light landing in front of Zhang Jian and saluted.

"Phoenix Spirit thanks the Lord for the bestowed treasure. Lord, your grace, I do not know how to repay!"

At this moment, Phoenix Spirit's bright eyes were filled with deep emotions, and a blush had unwittingly crept up on her beautiful jade face.

Having refined the Phoenix Jade and learned its origin, Phoenix Spirit felt indescribably grateful.

This beautiful jade was as precious to her as a Daoist Treasure of Enlightenment.

With this item, the condensation of the True Phoenix Body was within reach, and there was also hope to achieve the legendary Innate Nirvana Dao Body of the Phoenix Race, promising a bright future.

This treasure could also serve as a Lifebound Spiritual Treasure.

Since its nature was an Innate Spiritual Object, it had immense potential.

It could be cultivated as a Lifebound item, refining into a unique Spiritual Treasure.

In her own thoughts, merely serving in guarding the Zhang Family Dragon Vein was hardly a tiny repayment for such immense favor.

Zhang Jian, however, was not concerned; though this treasure was precious, it was something he would have more of in the future, and rather than letting it go unused, it should be used to enhance the Zhang Family's foundation.

He responded with a smile, "It doesn't matter; the challenges we will face in the future are far greater than you can imagine. This Vermilion Phoenix Mountain is the core of the Zhang Family's Dragon Vein, critical and must not be lost. If you can achieve the True Phoenix Body soon, it will also ease my concerns!"

Phoenix Spirit slightly nodded.

After bestowing the treasure, Zhang Jian's Yang Spirit immediately departed, returning to Haojing City.

...

Two years quietly passed like flowing water.

Two years later, outside Haojing City, a dragon-bone great ship was moored on the canal. This ship was no different from other official ships, but in Zhang Jian's eyes, it shimmered with spiritual light.

This was the Cyan Cloud Ship sent by the Tongshan Dao Lineage to escort Zhang Yi into the sect.

Zhang Yi stood by Zhang Jian's side at this moment; two years had passed, and the ten-year-old boy now looked like eighteen or nineteen, his figure tall and his eyes bright with lively brilliance.

In his intelligence, there was no lack of vigilance.

After two years of Zhang Jian's teaching and forging, Zhang Yi's spirit had matured.

If not for Zhang Jian's suppression, he might have already established his Divination Foundation.

Having consumed a Returning Origin Golden Core, the Flood Dragon bloodline within him had been purified to a certain level. Whether he would Transform into a Dragon or walk the orthodox path of a cultivator depended on his own choice in the future.

"Father!"

At this moment, Zhang Yi's eyes showed some reluctance, his gaze quickly shifting to Qi Yuhua beside Zhang Jian, and then to his younger brother and sister.

"Yi'Er, cultivate diligently and do not slack off!"

Qi Yuhua's beautiful eyes were somewhat sorrowful; Zhang Yi was not her own child, but he was raised at her knees, and over ten years of bond was no different than that of a true mother and son.

She knew, however, that when the fledgling eagle matures, it must eventually set out on its own journey.

On the path of cultivation, she could be of no help.
