"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
On the ancient warship that was speeding toward the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, the palace was filled with spiritual Qi and light.
Gu Changge asked casually, seeming to be in a good mood.
"No. I don't know why, but I suddenly have a strange feeling."
Su Qingge leaned into his arms and found a more comfortable position. She shook her head gently. "Do you still remember what happened in the Lower Realm?"
"What happened in the Lower Realm?"
Gu Changge raised his eyebrows slightly. He recalled that when he asked Yan Ji to inquire about Su Qingge's whereabouts, she said that she was going to look for her mother.
Was it because of this matter that she was suddenly asking about it?
"Are you talking about your background?"
Although it was a long time ago, Gu Changge still remembered it.
Su Qingge's mother seemed to be a noble lady from the Upper Realm who came to the Lower Realm by accident. After giving birth to her, she was brought back to the Upper Realm.
Su Qingge's father had been thinking that he could find her mother after she came to the Upper Realm.
"So you still remember." Hearing that, Su Qingge was a little happy. "I thought you'd forgotten."
"If you didn't remind me, I might have forgotten."
Gu Changge said casually with a puzzled expression. He remembered the sudden notification from the System in his mind.
"Triggered the mission line of Su Qingge's fate?"
This kind of random mission was usually encountered when one encountered a Son of Fate. Could it be that this trip to the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird would lead to a Son of Fate?
And it was related to Su Qingge? Or was it her background?
Two souls in one body, but the body was not dominated by the other soul. This showed that Su Qingge's willpower was amazing.
However, the System did not mention it, so Gu Changge could not make a judgment. Now Su Qingge was worthy of the title of Daughter of Fate. Her fate points increased by a lot with each passing day.
Gu Changge observed step by step. When she was in the Lower Realm, her fate points increased from more than 300 to more than 10,000 in the blink of an eye.
Who would have thought that the first beauty of the Eastern Barren Territory would become the inheritor of the demonic arts that was feared by the Upper Realm?
"What a blessed girl."
Gu Changge could not help but smile.
"Young Master, what are you laughing about?"
Su Qingge stared at him. She felt that he was much more human than usual at this moment. It seemed that they were no longer separated by a distance that could never be touched.
"We've arrived at the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix."
Gu Changge did not answer. Instead, he stood up and swept his Divine Sense downwards, noticing the majestic Imperial City below.
Gu Changge felt that things would be much more interesting in this trial mission. More than half of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird had fallen, and the same was true for the other ancient kingdoms that the disciples had rushed to.
Although he was confident that he could resolve the Calamity of the Yin Sky, he didn't want to do so. After all, the fall of the Vermilion Bird Kingdom was a good thing for him.
The more chaotic the water was, the more he could use this opportunity to deal with Purple Sun Heaven Monarch.
If Jiang Chuchu could find the Yin-Terminating Origin Source for him, that would be even better.
"Gu Changge."
Seeing Su Qingge and Gu Changge come out of the palace, Jiang Chuchu, who had been meditating not far away, opened his eyes. There was a hint of shame in his eyes, but more than that, he was impolite and cold.
"Holy Virgin Chu, did you have a good rest last night?"
Gu Changge walked over and greeted him casually.
"You …"
Jiang Chuchu swallowed the word "bastard".
After all, he was in front of so many people, so he quickly regained his composure. No one could see anything unusual.
"You seem to have had a good rest."
Gu Changge smiled casually. "Holy Virgin Chu, I'll have to trouble you to cooperate in this trial. As the successor of the Human Ancestor Palace, I think you should have a lot of means to deal with the Yin-Terminating Creatures."
"Yes, I'll have to trouble you this time, Holy Virgin Chu. Along the way, I've seen that the Calamity of Yin-Terminating Creatures is not that simple …"
"There are many Sage-to-be Creatures of Yin-Terminating Creatures. When the time comes, we can only rely on Young Master Changge and Holy Virgin Chu."
Hearing this, the rest of the disciples echoed one after another. They did not notice the abnormality between Jiang Chuchu and Gu Changge at all.
"Young Master Changge is very powerful. If he's here, I'm afraid I can't help."
"At least I have some self-awareness."
Jiang Chuchu shook his head and said calmly.
However, many disciples thought that he was being modest. After all, his strength was recognized. Some time ago, he had shown his terrifying cultivation of the Saint Realm.
It was said that the two successors of the Human Ancestor Palace had a cultivation that surpassed their peers.
"You can't say that. Holy Virgin Chu is being modest. I've seen your strength many times." Gu Changge said with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone thought that the two were being modest. However, some people pondered. Could it be that the two had already fought before?
Was that why Jiang Chuchu said something like that? Did she know that she was no match for Gu Changge?
At that thought, they admired Gu Changge even more. It turned out that he had already suppressed the successor of the Human Ancestor Palace before anyone knew. Such strength … was more than just invincible.
However, Jiang Chuchu, as the person involved, did not feel that way.
She felt that Gu Changge was implying something. She could not help but grit her teeth. Test my strength?
Did he really have the guts to say these words in front of everyone?
How shameless!
…
In the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
In front of the imperial city gate, many cultivators and creatures had already heard the news. They were all from the various clans of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
Now that they knew that the Yin-Terminating Heaven was a disaster, they were discussing how to deal with it. They did not expect to hear about the Third Prince's return.
"It's the Third Prince. It's really the Third Prince. That's great."
"The Third Prince suddenly appeared in a time of crisis. Maybe we can be saved and don't have to flee our homeland."
In an instant, everyone came to welcome him.
At that moment, seeing the handsome man in front of the imperial city gate, everyone was very excited and emotional.
Anyone who had lived in the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird would have heard of the extraordinarily talented Third Prince, Chu Hao.
It was said that on the day of his birth, there were sounds of Dao, golden lotuses, clear springs, blooming celestial flowers, and the shadow of an ancient grotto-heaven appeared above the imperial palace.
Following that, celestial cranes flew in from all directions. Although there were no celestials on them, they carried a celestial mushroom that was more than a million years old as a congratulatory gift.
This event caused a lot of commotion back then and caused a lot of commotion in the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird. Many cultivators thought that the Third Prince was the reincarnation of a celestial and was destined to become an immortal in the future.
Even the Heaven's Favorites who were born at the same time as him were overshadowed by his brilliance.
"I really can't imagine that First Brother was born in such a remote place. Even the destiny of the Ancient Kingdom is constantly declining. It's hard to imagine how such a character like First Brother could be nurtured and supported here."
The girl was tall and had skin as white as snow. Her facial features were delicate and beautiful, and her temperament was cold and quiet.
She wore a long dress made from the silk of a fire silkworm that was more than a million years old. All kinds of rules and patterns were intertwined, making her look mysterious and ancient.
When she spoke, there was some disbelief and shock in her voice. She did not believe that the Big Brother with such great talent would be born in such a place.
From what they could see, the Big Brother's talent could only be raised by forces like the imperishable sects or everlasting families.
However, Chu Hao did not mind at all. He only smiled and said, "I told you before that you shouldn't be too surprised when you came with me because the force behind me is not that strong. However, I am still very grateful to the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird who raised me. "
"Father still provided me with a lot of cultivation resources even when the national treasury was in deficit. However, at that time, it was still far from enough for me. That was why I left the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird and traveled around."
"After that, if I didn't run into those celestial cranes when I was born, I probably wouldn't have been able to find my master."
"I didn't know there was such a reason. I've never heard the Big Brother mention it before."
"The Big Brother's father must be someone extraordinary."
The young girl was slightly stunned when she heard that. A look of admiration appeared in her eyes.
"So, when you see the people of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, don't put on airs, especially in front of my father."
Chu Hao's expression gradually became serious. He was worried that his junior brother and junior sister would think too highly of themselves and look down on the cultivators and living beings of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
"Don't worry, Big Brother. Junior Sister and I would never do such a thing. We didn't come out of the mountain to cause trouble for you …"
The frivolous young man hurriedly smiled and promised. He was still very respectful and fearful of the Big Brother.
However, the young girl only glanced at him indifferently and did not say anything.
Chu Hao knew what their personalities were like, so he could guess what they were thinking at the moment.
The young girl's name was Ji Qingxuan. Behind her was the Ji family that had been in existence for a very long time. However, they were very mysterious and kept a low profile.
Everyone knew about the everlasting families and the imperishable sects, but they rarely heard about the ancient hidden clans.
The ancient hidden clans were a mix of good and bad people. Even a clan that had been in existence for an era dared to call themselves an ancient hidden clan.
However, the Ji family was different because their origin could be traced back to the beginning of the human race. Their ancestor was also known as the Human Ancestor.
This so-called Human Ancestor had nothing to do with one's cultivation. It was all because they had made great contributions to the world.
Therefore, the ancient hidden Ji family was also known as the Human Ancestor family. As for the young man, his name was Wang Xiao. He was the genius of the ancient hidden Wang family.
The ancient hidden Wang family was naturally not comparable to the ancient Ji family. However, in front of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, they were still a huge force that was difficult to provoke.
Wang Xiao was arrogant, so it was normal for him to look down on the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird. Moreover, the reason why Wang Xiao followed them down the mountain this time was because of Ji Qingxuan.
Chu Hao was well aware of this.
However, because of the presence of his Big Brother, Wang Xiao restrained himself.
"Hao 'er, Hao' er …"
At this time, on the central street of the imperial city, the King of Vermilion Bird, who was dressed in a robe, was leading a group of ministers. He was very excited and excited.
"Father."
Chu Hao also smiled and quickly went up to him.
"He's just an emperor of the mortal world …" Wang Xiao curled his lips in disdain.
"Do you really think that Big Brother can't hear you?"
Ji Qingxuan frowned and her expression was very cold. "Idiot."
Wang Xiao hurriedly put on a smile and said, "Eldest Senior Brother won't mind. After all, Eldest Senior Brother's Master wants to become the Manor Head this time and needs our Wang Family's support. Eldest Senior Brother will turn a blind eye."
Hearing that, Ji Qingxuan gave him a cold look and did not say anything else.
Rumble!
At this time, a terrifying trembling sound suddenly came from the sky.
"An ancient warship is coming here …"
Ji Qingxuan's eyes flickered. She looked up and saw a terrifying shadow in the distant sky, which covered the sky and the sun. It was descending toward the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
The momentum was very shocking. It crushed the sky and shocked many of the cultivators and living beings in the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
Meanwhile, the King of Vermilion Bird and the others who were talking to Chu Hao were delighted.
"Father, what is this?"
Chu Hao was a little surprised. He looked over and noticed the flag on the ancient warship.
The two words "True Immortal" were simple and majestic. They spread out in the sky and gave off an ancient aura.
The existence of the True Immortal Academy was known by almost everyone in the Upper Realm.
Chu Hao was no exception. Therefore, he could not help but be curious. Logically speaking, why would the True Immortal Academy notice a place like the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird?
"It should be because the geniuses of the True Immortal Academy have all arrived."
The King of Vermilion Bird explained, "When the True Immortal Academy heard about the Calamity of Absolute Yin, they sent their disciples here, saying that they want to stop this calamity."
So that was the case. So this was actually a trial by the True Immortal Academy? To True Immortal Academy, the only use of this calamity was to temper their disciples through a trial by fire. The life and death of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird was insignificant to them.
Chu Hao could not help but frown. He was curious at first, but at this moment, only disgust was left.
After all, the True Immortal Academy was high above and beyond the mortal world.
The geniuses who cultivated there all had extraordinary backgrounds. Even a random outer sect disciple from there was definitely not someone the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird could afford to offend.
Therefore, although the trial this time sounded like it was for the sake of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, to help them solve the Calamity of Absolute Yin.
However, if something were to happen to those geniuses here, the forces behind them would not dare to say anything to the True Immortal Academy.
In the end, they would only blame the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird. Even if the Calamity of Absolute Yin was solved, the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird would not have an easy time.
It would also be said that those geniuses could leave at any time if they were in danger, but the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird could not. Instead, they would have to allocate some of their forces and manpower to protect them.
Considering all these reasons, Chu Hao felt that those geniuses were here to cause trouble. They were of noble status, and the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird had to be careful.
"It's really hard to explain."
Chu Hao sighed softly. Looking at the helpless expression on his father's face, he understood that all of this was not something the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird could decide.
"The True Immortal …"
"That's strange."
Ji Qingxuan frowned. She didn't know why, but when she saw the ancient warship, she had a strange feeling.
An inexplicably familiar feeling came from her bloodline.
It was as if there was someone very important to her there.
"Could it be that this generation's geniuses from the True Immortal Academy would come to a place like the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird to train?"
Wang Xiao also noticed that incomparably ancient and huge ancient warship that was covered in chaotic aura. He was very shocked.
With his status, it was not difficult for him to enter the True Immortal Academy.
However, the place where he cultivated was an ancient orthodoxy called the Taishang Grotto-Heaven.
The Taishang Grotto-Heaven was very mysterious. It almost never accepted outsiders as disciples, and only those who were fated to go there.
Even the location of the grotto-heaven was very mysterious, and very few people could find it.
Wang Xiao originally did not have the right to enter the Taishang Grotto-Heaven.
However, he was once a member of the reclusive Wang Family who made a big mistake and was exiled. For some unknown reason, he suddenly changed and became an extremely powerful elder in the Taishang Grotto-Heaven.
That member's biggest wish was to be able to return to the Wang Family.
Because of this, the reclusive Wang Family agreed to let him return to the family tree. Naturally, Wang Xiao was able to join.
"I heard that this generation's True Immortal Academy is full of talents and geniuses. It can be said to be a golden age …"
"Many ancient freaks have appeared, every single one of them powerful beyond compare. Wind and clouds converged, dragons soared and tigers leapt."
Ji Qingxuan said softly, and there was a look of longing in her eyes.
Although the Taishang Grotto-Heaven that she joined was not weak, there were too few disciples.
The geniuses that she met, apart from the reclusive Ji Family members, were the disciples of the Taishang Grotto-Heaven.
Wang Xiao's strength was not considered weak among the disciples of the Taishang Grotto-Heaven.
However, in Ji Qingxuan's opinion, compared to those famous geniuses, he was far inferior.
The only one that was worthy of her respect was her Eldest Senior Brother Chu Hao.
Although Chu Hao's personality seemed normal, there was one thing that was especially strange.
He always felt that his strength was not strong enough. However, he still had to cultivate in seclusion even though he had already crushed many of his peers.
Moreover, he was the kind of person who cultivated in seclusion all year round, and it was rare to see him.
An elder once said that unless the Taishang Grotto-Heaven was in danger, Eldest Senior Brother Chu Hao would not come out of seclusion easily.
This time, if the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was not in danger, Ji Qingxuan reckoned that Eldest Senior Brother Chu Hao would choose to continue his seclusion.
However, thanks to this opportunity, she could leave the mountain gate and come to the outside world to meet many young geniuses.
It was not unreasonable for the reclusive Ji Family to keep a low profile.
It was rare to see members of the Ji Family in the outside world. Since Ji Qingxuan could remember, the number of times she left the mountain gate could be counted on one hand.
"Eldest Senior Brother, don't you like those geniuses?"
However, Ji Qingxuan soon noticed Chu Hao's expression and was a little confused.
"Eldest Senior Brother seems humble, but he is actually proud. He definitely doesn't like those geniuses."
Wang Xiao looked as if he had seen through Ji Qingxuan and said with interest.
"Shut up." Ji Qingxuan glanced at him coldly. She did not hide her disgust at all.
Her voice was as if it had been tempered by thousands of years of ice and frost. It was bone-chilling.
Although Wang Xiao knew that Ji Qingxuan's character was like that, he was still a little unhappy that he was scolded by her time and time again.
"Ji Qingxuan, don't forget that the Patriarch of your Ji Family has reached the last stage of the Five Decay of the Heavenly Being. When he passes away, your family's enemies … Hmph …"
He smiled proudly.
"You're courting death!"
Ji Qingxuan's killing intent rose to the peak.
However, she forced herself to hold it in.
Wang Xiao smiled proudly. He was not surprised at all.
"Hao 'er, you don't have to welcome those geniuses with me. I know your temper. There might be some conflict later."
On the other hand, the Emperor of Phoenix had seen through it and smiled calmly.
After all, he would have to be humble and please those geniuses when he met them later.
As a son, how could Chu Hao stand such a situation? If there was a conflict, they would be the ones to suffer in the end.
"I understand, father."
Chu Hao said in a deep voice and clenched his fists. He hated his own helplessness.
If he was strong enough, the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix would not need the Immortal Academy to treat them like charity.
He would not need his father to grovel and flatter the other geniuses.
As expected, he still needed to go into seclusion. After breaking through to the Supreme Stage, no one dared to look down on the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix.
"I'll be able to reach that level soon …"
At this moment, if anyone knew Chu Hao's true thoughts, they would be shocked speechless.
Supreme Stage!
That was a stage that even old monsters who had cultivated for millions of years could not break through.
And he was about to reach that stage. How old was Chu Hao? He was only a few hundred years old!
This kind of talent could no longer be described as shocking.
"Let's go to the palace first."
After that, Chu Hao led Ji Qingxuan and Wang Xiao in another direction, deliberately avoiding the ancient warship that was descending toward the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
…
"I thought this Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was related to the Phoenix Clan. I didn't expect it to be a small country."
"I thought something big was going to happen when I came here. This Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix doesn't even have a Quasi-Supreme. The most powerful one is a Great Saint at most."
"No wonder more than half of the country has fallen …"
On the ancient warship, a group of geniuses looked at the scene below and could not help but feel disappointed.
Compared to the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix in front of them, their background was like an emperor suddenly arriving at a small mountain village. Naturally, they were as disappointed as they could be.
"This fate …"
"It didn't look like this when we saw it from the sky. Could it be that the so-called child of fate is closely related to the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix?"
Gu Changge could not help but narrow his eyes.
"Greetings, geniuses of the Immortal Academy."
"I'm the current king of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix."
Below the ancient warship, the king of Phoenix led a group of ministers and several young and beautiful princesses. They were waiting anxiously and uneasily.
Many people had their heads lowered, looking cautious and fearful. There was not a trace of surprise or joy on their faces.
Even the powerful ministers and generals of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix were trembling in fear at this moment. They looked as if they were walking on thin ice, not daring to breathe too loudly.
They did not know who the leader of this expedition to the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was, so they did not know what his temperament was like.
If they offended him because of disrespect, then they deserved to die.
