"Reality? What reality? "
Shui Qingrou furrowed her brows. After that, she followed Xiao Lingyu towards the phoenix corpse that was emitting a fiery light.
Like before, when they were a thousand feet away from the phoenix corpse, Shui Qingrou couldn't go any further. She needed to borrow Xiao Lingyu's chaos essence to continue.
Extremely high level fire energy surged out from the fire phoenix's corpse. Moreover, the fire energy was far more aggressive than the water energy. The pressure they exerted on the Chaotic Essence Qi grew greater and greater, causing Xiao Lingyu to be extremely careful. However, he was still unable to reach the shield with the missing horn.
The shield was on the back of the phoenix corpse. Xiao Lingyu and Shui Qingrou stopped beside the phoenix's wings.
If Xiao Lingyu couldn't get close to the shield, he wouldn't be able to drip his blood on it like the Great Elder did. Thus, he wouldn't be able to take the shield away. Even if Xiao Lingyu spat out his blood essence now, it would most likely be incinerated into nothingness by the scorching fire energy before it could reach the shield.
"What should we do?" Xiao Lingyu said gloomily. Even though they didn't meet any danger, they couldn't move forward. This feeling of being out of reach was tormenting their minds.
Shui Qingrou's mind flashed and she suddenly said to Xiao Lingyu, "Dao friend, don't be anxious. Just now, after the huge dragon was startled, it lost its last bit of essence and disappeared. I think this phoenix is the same."
Xiao Lingyu was slightly taken aback, and then he asked in astonishment, "Fellow Daoist Water, are you saying that we should first trigger this Fire Phoenix and make it vanish into thin air like the giant dragon, and then take this shield magic treasure?"
Shui Qingrou nodded "Seems like this is the only way."
Xiao Lingyu pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "Haha, thank you for your reminder, Fellow Water Dao. I think this is a good idea. Anyway, if we want to take the shield, we will definitely alarm the fire phoenix. It doesn't matter if we alarm it sooner or later. Also, we don't have to waste a lot of essence blood to make it recognize me as its master. This way, I can be in a better state to deal with sudden situations. "
Shui Qingrou smiled "Xiao Daoyou don't need to be so polite. You've already helped our Water Spirit Hall get the inheritance treasure. I'm just reminding dao friend, I don't dare to take the credit. However, the matter of alarming the Fire Phoenix will be left to Qingrou. It can be considered as helping Fellow Daoist Xiao successfully obtain the treasure. "
"This …" Xiao Lingyu hesitated.
"Hehe, Xiao Daoyou don't want to give me a chance to perform?" Shui Qingrou smiled.
Although this Fire Phoenix didn't have any life force, but for this kind of existence, even if it had been dead for many years, if someone were to touch its corpse, it could cause some unpredictable changes. That blue dragon just now was an example. Therefore, Shui Qing Rou suggested that she should disturb the Fire Phoenix's corpse. In reality, she wanted to take on most of the danger herself.
Xiao Lingyu could guess that Shui Qingrou was a bit ashamed. After all, she invited Xiao Lingyu over but Xiao Lingyu was stuck at the last moment. This made her unable to fulfill her promise to Xiao Lingyu. From this, Xiao Lingyu could guess that Shui Qingrou's suggestion wasn't something that he could reject even if he wanted to. With Shui Qingrou's temper, she would definitely do so.
So Xiao Lingyu hesitated and said "Then I'll have to trouble dao friend Shui."
After speaking, Xiao Lingyu stirred all the Primal Chaos Essence Qi in his body and strengthened the Demon Suppressing Immortal Orb.
Seeing Shui Qingrou's determined expression, Xiao Lingyu suddenly felt that this female loose immortal was really manly and worth befriending.
After activating all her water type immortal essence power to strengthen her immortal armor and taking a deep breath, Shui Qingrou suddenly shouted. A blue jade talisman shot out from her mouth and fiercely hit the phoenix's wings and then exploded.
Xiao Lingyu was a bit nervous and immediately brought Shui Qingrou to fly far away.
Ha!!!
As expected, after the phoenix was alerted, it suddenly let out a phoenix cry. At the same time, a fiery shockwave swept out in all directions.
Even though Xiao Lingyu was mentally prepared and his actions were not slow, the fiery shockwave was still blocked by the Chaos Essence. A small portion of the shockwave's power penetrated and affected the two of them.
Although Xiao Lingyu's Primal Chaos True Flame wasn't as good as the fire type energy, it could still help him to digest some of the fire type energy. Adding on the fact that his body's quality was higher, he didn't receive too much damage. On the other hand, Shui Qingrou was water type. Although water type countered fire type, the quality of her water type energy wasn't as good as the fire type energy. Adding on the fact that she was already heavily injured, her situation was much worse.
"Hehe, Qingrou can only do this. The rest is up to you, Xiao Daoyou." Shui Qingrou laughed bitterly. After saying that, she violently spat out blood. Her face was pale and her body was on the verge of collapse. Right now, her injuries were probably even more serious than that cunning Grand Elder.
Before Xiao Lingyu could reply, the corpse of the alarmed phoenix started to dissipate like the blue dragon. This was also what Xiao Lingyu and Shui Qingrou expected.
However, what the two of them didn't expect was that just as the corpse of the phoenix was about to dissipate completely, there was a sudden change. From the last part of the phoenix's corpse, a brilliant white light suddenly flew out.
The brilliant white light was very sharp. The moment it appeared, it gave people a feeling of invincibility. Moreover, it was coming towards Shui Qingrou.
With Shui Qingrou's current state, she was unable to block this brilliant white light. Luckily, Xiao Lingyu's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He blocked in front of Shui Qingrou and used his Silver Moon Broken Blade to slash at the light.
"Clang!!!"
A sharp sound of metal clashing against stone could be heard. Xiao Lingyu instinctively felt that the web between his thumb and forefinger had split open. Before he could even feel the pain, his body was pushed away by a valiant force. He crashed into Shui Qingrou's body fiercely and flew back with Shui Qingrou for a long distance before stabilizing himself.
What surprised Xiao Lingyu was that there was a white mark on the Silver Moon Broken Blade in his hand.
When Xiao Lingyu looked at the white light again, he and Shui Qingrou were both stunned. Because the white light had already stopped and revealed a five foot long sword.
That long sword's body was brilliant white. Sword Qi filled the entire sword. Although no one was controlling it, there was an extremely sharp sword intent that surged out. It covered all directions and made people feel that there was only one long sword in this world.
If one looked carefully, one could see that on the sword's hilt, there were two small words … Merciless!
Obviously, Merciless was the name of this long sword.
"The legendary Merciless Divine Sword was actually left behind in the Sun Moon Star Curtain! No wonder the two of them couldn't come to an agreement and ended up dying together. No wonder even a corner of the Fire Spirit Continent's Inheritance Treasure was broken! "
