The Earth Is My Dantian

Chapter 421: Chapter 20, Nirvana of the Phoenix (second update)

The thousand-year-old ancient tree’s expression was solemn as it waited in silence. Mu Bai’s news was not enough to save its life, which made it both surprised and happy.

What made it happy was that Ye Sheng was willing to let it go and did not have too much killing intent. What shocked it was that what news was it going to bring to save it?

The thousand-year-old ancient tree was silent for a moment. Ye Sheng’s expression gradually turned cold as he looked at the sabre-toothed tiger that had lost its fighting strength and pointed out with a finger.

The Great River Sword came down from the sky!

This sword directly pierced through the forest. An unparalleled power directly cut the sabre-toothed tiger into two halves, and its soul vanished into the world.

Ye Sheng looked at the thousand-year-old ancient tree.

The thousand-year-old ancient tree shuddered and immediately said, “I know a piece of news that can definitely save my life.”

“Speak.”Ye Sheng’s expression was calm as he said.

“News about Phoenix.”The thousand-year-old tree whispered.

Ye Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, “How do you know about Phoenix?”

“You know that I am a deviant. The plants in the millions of mountains in the southwest can communicate with me, so I know more information than others. These days, I have been searching for Phoenix’s whereabouts. A few days ago, a plant told me that Phoenix is in the process of Nirvana.”The thousand-year-old tree explained.

“The Phoenix is undergoing nirvana?”Ye Sheng’s eyes lit up as he asked seriously.

Among the four great divine beasts, the Phoenix was the one that was the least likely to die. They had a kind of talent, Nirvana.

They were severely injured and only needed to enter Nirvana. After waiting for a few decades or a hundred years, they would recover. However, once they underwent nirvana, they would suffer great damage. Their cultivation base would drop by more than half and they would have to start all over again. Not only that.., their souls would also become pure, just like babies.

Such a Phoenix was the easiest to capture.

That was why ye Sheng stared at the other party seriously.

The thousand-year-old ancient tree nodded and said, “The Phoenix is hiding in a place to undergo nirvana. No one knows about it. That’s why no one can find it. Coincidentally, I know about this news.”

“Tell me and I’ll spare your life,”Ye Sheng said indifferently.

The thousand-year-old ancient tree looked at Ye Sheng in silence and said, “If I tell you, what will you do if you kill me to silence me?”

Ye Sheng smiled slightly and said, “What right do you have to negotiate with Me Now?”

The thousand-year-old ancient tree gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t threaten me. Phoenix Nirvana is a great opportunity. I told you that you must swear to your dao heart and let me leave completely.”

“After I let you leave, wouldn’t I be asking for trouble if I told the Heavenly Demon Holy Land about the Phoenix Nirvana?”Ye Sheng asked.

“I can also swear to my dao heart that I won’t tell anyone else about this except for you. No matter if it’s demon beasts or humans, no one will know about it,”the thousand-year-old ancient tree said immediately.

“I didn’t expect you to be so smart. You know how to make me let my guard down.”Ye Sheng sneered.

The thousand-year-old ancient tree said sincerely, “I want to live.”

It had spent a thousand years to get to where it was today in order to cultivate from the plant spiritual monster. It did not want to die at all. That was why it racked its brains and asked Ye Sheng to ensure that it let it go before it was willing to tell the news of the Phoenix.

Ye Sheng thought carefully and said, “Sure. As long as you swear to Dao Xin and only tell me the news of the Phoenix Nirvana, I can also swear to Dao Xin and let you leave safely.”

The thousand-year-old ancient tree immediately heaved a sigh of relief and then swore on its dao heart without hesitation.

Seeing it swear, Ye Sheng also swore on his dao heart.

After the oath was made, Ye Sheng stared at the thousand-year-old ancient tree and asked, “Where is the Phoenix Nirvana?”

“The Phoenix Nest, also known as the Parasol Tree Forest. The Phoenix is hidden inside,”the thousand-year-old ancient tree told Ye Sheng.

“Where is the Parasol Tree Forest?”Ye Sheng asked with a frown. The Southwest was known as the Million Mountains. Basically, every mountain had a parasol tree forest. Where could he find it?

“At the source of the Longze Great Yuan, there is a huge forest. Inside, there is a flourishing parasol tree forest. The Phoenix is hidden inside. I originally planned to go and try my luck after I captured you, but since I told you now, I Won’t go anymore. Moreover, I didn’t tell anyone else about this, but I can’t rule out the possibility that other people also found the clues, so you have to be faster,”the thousand-year-old tree reminded Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng could not deny it. “I will consider it, but if I find out that you are lying to me, no one will be able to save you.”

The thousand-year-old ancient tree smiled bitterly. “This failure can be considered as a deep lesson for me. How would I dare to lie to You? You are so powerful.”

“I hope so. As long as you are telling the truth, we will not cross paths again.”Ye Sheng tapped his toes and his body turned into a gust of wind and disappeared.

Seeing that Ye Sheng had left, the thousand-year-old ancient tree heaved a sigh of relief. Its main body seeped into the ground and swiftly left. It didn’t want to stay here any longer.

..

In the southwest region, there were groups of tall mountains and numerous mountains. As far as the eye could see, there were mountains everywhere and mountains everywhere.

Ye Sheng walked among them and left the battle zone. He brought the great demon king of the void with him to escape from the people of the Heavenly Monster Sacred Land.

There was almost no plain on this vast land. This special terrain had been like this since ancient times, which also created a miasma-filled scene where savage beasts appeared and strange birds ran amok.

It was common knowledge that demons came from the southwest and far surpassed the central plains. That was why they often called the southwest a land of savages.

Ye Sheng used to think so too. However, everything he saw, heard, and experienced during this trip told him that the southwest was not as barren as he had imagined.

Perhaps it was not as prosperous as the central plains civilization, but the southwest region was also unique in its own way and had developed its own culture.

All of these told Ye Sheng that this place was very beautiful, very demonic, and very good.

The Void Demon King stood on Ye Sheng’s shoulder and said, “Do you want to capture a phoenix while it is undergoing nirvana?”

Ye Sheng did not answer.

The void demon king continued, “After the Nirvana of a Phoenix, it is the best time to subdue it. However, it is only limited to after the Nirvana of a Phoenix. It takes at least a dozen years for a phoenix to undergo Nirvana.”

Ye Sheng’s footsteps paused, and then he continued to advance.

“As for the Nirvana of a Phoenix, the energy in its entire body is so dense that it is unbelievable. Once it is absorbed by you, breaking through to the third level of the Void realm will not be a problem at all,”the Void Demon King said faintly.

Ye Sheng’s footsteps stopped, and he said, “You are thinking the same as me.”

The Void Demon King revealed an expression that said, “You are a child that can be taught.” He nodded and said, “After the Phoenix Nirvana, it has no fighting ability at all. Other than the Phoenix Flames that are more troublesome, it isn’t considered troublesome to you. Find the Phoenix, absorb it, and you’ll be able to break through to the third level of the void stage as soon as possible.”

“I haven’t finished absorbing the treasures I obtained from the Heavenly Demon Holy Land’s treasury. There’s still more than half. If I absorb all of them, it’ll also allow me to break through to the third level of the void stage,”Ye Sheng said.

“So, you absorb the treasures in the Treasury, break through to the third level of the void stage, and then absorb the energy of the Phoenix’s nirvana, breaking through to the fourth level of the void stage. At that time, you’ll be able to contend against the tenth level of the void stage,”the Void Demon King told Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng’s eyes lit up, and he nodded fiercely. “The power of the Phoenix’s nirvana, I want it for sure.”
