Chapter 886 -773: The Phoenix Falls
It didn’t take long for Ye Zi and the others to find the source of that strange feeling. It was discovered by the Erlang God in a hidden cave deep at the foot of a mountain. Using Ye Zi’s words to describe it, they saw a soul of a person trapped by several dozen thick chains deep within the cave. Calling it a soul feels a bit off, but since it doesn’t have a physical body, there’s no other way to refer to it except as a soul. They suddenly appeared in this world, and it’s almost certain that this is the handiwork of Ling Wei Zi Mo from the Myriad Demons Country, so it’s speculated that there’s definitely a meaningful reason why they were thrown here by that person.
Now that they discovered such a thing, it’s obvious even with knee-level intuition that Ling Wei Zi Mo’s goal was for them to find this guy. But what exactly is this guy? After some research by everyone, Ye Zi recognized this thing, even though Ye Zi wasn’t entirely sure, he was still more confident than anyone else. Looking at the pale blue transparent figure that was locked, Ye Zi touched his chin and said, “This should be a part of the Spirit, although I don’t know whose, but it’s basically certain.” Ye Wu looked at the pale blue figure and asked, “Brother, how do you know?”
Ye Zi said thoughtfully, “When we were in the Patrolling Celestial World, after you were injured by the Nine Heavens Pure Thunder, I became determined to resurrect you, so I frantically cultivated my soul. One day, I discovered that certain things within my soul started to evolve. However, it was also at that time that the Spirit Controller appeared, not only injuring me but also making me submit to him. Although the evolved part vanished from my soul, I relatively gained some things.”
Speaking, he pointed to the figure locked by chains and said, “On him, I can feel a similar sensation as before, and this guy’s features are not clear, only a figure, so I deduced this should be a part of a Spirit. As for whether it is, I can’t be sure. But the term Spirit has appeared in my memory somewhat. In my vague memory, it seems there was someone who touched upon the Realm of Spirit.”
The others didn’t know what this was, so they had to treat this thing as a Spirit. So they asked, “What use does this thing have?” Ye Zi furrowed his brows, seeming to be searching his memory diligently, but after a while, indeed, he found nothing. “My memory is very special, it seems some part of it is sealed by something. If I could unlock this seal, I think I could know more. But before that, I need to make contact with that thing.”
Speaking, Ye Zi disregarded the others’ persuasion, flashing over to the figure bound by chains, nervously reached out his hand, hesitated a while, finally made a decision and pressed it onto the chest of that thing. Then, Ye Zi’s whole body froze, in that instant, countless memories appeared in Ye Zi’s mind, all belonging to someone else. As if shocked, he quickly withdrew his hand, retreating hurriedly several steps, then looked at the transparent figure with lingering fear.
The others saw Ye Zi’s appearance and immediately came forward to inquire, at this time Ye Wu suddenly exclaimed, “Brother, a pattern appeared on your forehead, it looks like a phoenix?” As Ye Wu said this, Ye Zi was also shocked, hurriedly reached to feel his forehead, and on touching it, he was frozen. As he touched the pattern, the things in his memory started boiling, filling his entire consciousness.
Soon, Ye Zi already completely absorbed those memories, although absorbing these unfamiliar memories significantly depleted his Divine Sense, it was nothing compared to the shock in his heart. After a long while, Ye Zi slowly exhaled, looking at Ye Wu, then looking around at everyone, and then told a matter concerning the true identities of him and Ye Wu and that pale blue figure.
In those memories that didn’t belong to him, Ye Zi saw many things. “Ye Zi, do you remember what our true form is?” Ye Wu asked curiously, “The Seven-colored Phoenix Summoning Twin Sycamore, what’s wrong?” Ye Zi nodded and said, “You’re right, but according to the memories I just received, our true form actually doesn’t go by that name. Our true form’s real name is Phoenix Perch, although that name isn’t very formidable, it is our real name. The reason it turned into Seven-colored Phoenix Summoning Twin Sycamore in our memories was due to an event.”
“Long ago, in this universe, the first phoenix was born, and accompanying that phoenix was a sycamore tree. That phoenix perched on that sycamore tree daily, but one day, unexpected purple light split that phoenix and sycamore tree into two. However, the miracle is, that phoenix not only didn’t die but split into two identical ones. But the names changed, one was called Feng, the other Huang. And that sycamore tree didn’t die, and soon the roots of the split sycamore tree grew back together.”
“However, the sycamore tree trunk didn’t grow back together, because Feng and Huang respectively occupied half of the sycamore tree. Among them, Feng was the progenitor of the Burst Phoenix Clan’s Blast Heaven Feng, while Huang was the progenitor of the Burst Phoenix Clan’s Blast Heaven Huang. And that sycamore tree is our ancestor. Just a million years ago, Blast Heaven Huang left this universe, and Blast Heaven Feng left the sycamore tree. Later, the sycamore tree inexplicably withered, and when it rejuvenated again, it was us. And the name Seven-colored Phoenix Summoning is because the previous generation of Phoenix Perch hoped to summon back the departed Blast Heaven Feng.”
Finished in one breath, Ye Zi himself was a bit bewildered. Just now, automatically these words surfaced in his mind, he merely recited them. After saying it, everyone fell into silence. The others were silent because they completely didn’t understand what Ye Zi was talking about. Ye Zi and Ye Wu were silent because they thought of many things. They knew Flame God, so they knew Flame God was a descendant of the Burst Phoenix Clan’s Blast Heaven Feng. But then there was nothing more, they previously fought alongside Flame God and didn’t feel anything special.
So the two didn’t know what utility this memory had, why it was sealed. But Ye Zi then continued, “Before Blast Heaven Huang left, he had cultivated to a very incredible Realm, he touched upon Spirit. So he stored a part of his memories, only to be unlocked when we too touch upon Spirit. Just now I indeed ‘touched’ Spirit, but it wasn’t mine, so the seal, directly opened half. I think once it’s fully opened, we could know more.”
After Ye Zi finished, he exchanged a glance with Ye Wu, and Ye Wu nodded. Ye Zi and Ye Wu were originally one entity, before Ye Zi touched the pale blue figure and only unlocked half of the sealed memory, so to unlock the other half, Ye Wu also needs to touch the pale blue figure. Ye Wu took a deep breath, and within a few steps, he stood before the pale blue figure, stretched out his hand, and pressed it on the chest of that figure.
With almost the same reaction as Ye Zi, he quickly withdrew his hand, but with Ye Zi’s precedent, Ye Wu wasn’t overly panicked, stepping back a few paces, then directly sat on the ground cross-legged with eyes closed. After a long period, Ye Wu opened his eyes, glanced at the others, and said, “Phoenix Perch was born alongside Phoenix in this universe. The two cannot be separated, once separated, one side will die. So after Feng and Huang completely left Phoenix Perch, the Phoenix Perch sycamore tree withered. But because it was stained with Phoenix’s Immortal Fierce Flame, after countless years, the dead Phoenix Perch grew anew, which is to say Ye Zi and I now.”
“After being reborn, we are no longer in the true sense Phoenix Perch, so unable to resonate with Burst Phoenix Clan at all. However, this situation can change, as long as we or someone in Burst Phoenix Clan evolves Spirit, resonance can occur. Either we evolve into Phoenix Perch, or the Storm Clan evolves into Phoenix. This pale blue figure is Spirit, formed by the aggregation of countless people’s Spirit. If we could absorb this Spirit, Evolution could occur.”
After saying this, Ye Wu first paused, then looked at Ye Zi, slowly revealing a gentle smile: “Brother, go find Ye Zi. I think this is all destiny, our existence must have some significance, and now, it’s time to fulfill that significance.”
Ye Zi immediately realized what Ye Wu wanted to do, and before Ye Wu could act, he had already waved his hands repeatedly, sending everyone around flying towards that pale blue figure.
The others naturally had no defense and were all sent flying, each passing through that pale blue figure one after another. (. Mobile users please read at m.qidian.com.)
