Cultivation Begins From The Desert Chapter 512 - 497: Impatiens’ Origins!

The Seven-Colored Phoenix Wings sprouted from Jiang Fengxian’s back, enhancing her celestial beauty to a level that surpassed all others.

However, Zhouyang was not in the mood to appreciate such beauty at this mont. Compared to Jiang Fengxian’s unrivaled celestial appearance, he was more concerned about the pair of Seven-Colored Phoenix Wings suddenly appeared on her back.

He could clearly see that these wings were not so magical or divine technique illusion, but real wings of flesh and blood.

Humans definitely don’t grow wings!

Therefore, Jiang Fengxian is certainly not human, or at least not purely human!

"Fengxian, are you not human?"

Zhouyang gaped at Jiang Fengxian, restraining himself again and again before he could no longer contain his curiosity and asked the question.

"This matter is sowhat complicated. Brother Zhou, if you trust , let’s discuss it after overcoming this obstacle!"

Jiang Fengxian lowered her delicate head slightly, glanced back at Zhouyang, and replied in a clear voice.

Zhouyang’s breath suddenly caught.

Beautiful!

Too beautiful!

Jiang Fengxian’s glance back made Zhouyang truly understand what it ans to "turn back with a smile that births a hundred charms, making the beauties of the six palaces pale."

Even though her face and eyes actually didn’t carry any smile or hint of joy, they were even sowhat indifferent.

But pure beauty alone was not enough to make Zhouyang lose his composure like this.

The other critical reason for his loss of composure is that in that glance, Zhouyang discovered another non-human feature of Jiang Fengxian.

This non-human feature is her pair of breathtakingly beautiful eyes, which made his heart almost stop.

Those were definitely not normal human eyes but rather bird-like eyes similar to raptors with a golden hue, noble and majestic.

In an instant, various speculations flashed through Zhouyang’s mind, but he finally suppressed all thoughts, nodded gently, and said, "Alright, then I’ll leave it to your thods, Fengxian."

With that said, he took a stride forward and started running with all his might once again.

At this ti, the dark red insect cloud made up of hundreds of thousands of mutated Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants was already less than two li away from them.

For a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, a two-li distance feels like it’s at arm’s length.

Jiang Fengxian looked at the rapidly approaching insect cloud, and a flash of cold light appeared in her beautiful eyes as she took the initiative to strike first.

With a flap of those Seven-Colored Phoenix Wings behind her, an invisible gale whistled towards the insect cloud in the sky.

The gale howled, catching the insect cloud off guard, instantly scattering it into countless smaller insect clouds. Many Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants were directly blown off their wings, losing their flying capability.

However, the good tis did not last long. After the gale, the remaining Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants quickly regrouped to form the insect cloud again.

This ti, they seed to have learned. They quickly each spat out magical power and linked up, transforming mid-air into dozens of spears made up of Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants.

Then these dark red spears accelerated sharply, shooting towards Zhouyang and Jiang Fengxian on the ground, at speeds several tis faster than the insect cloud.

Seeing this, Jiang Fengxian pinched a tactic with her jade-like hand, and a ray of seven-colored spiritual light shot out from her Seven-Colored Phoenix Wings, brushing against those incoming dark red spears.

Any dark red spear brushed by the Seven-Colored Spiritual Light imdiately lost all spiritual qi and turned into a heap of ant corpses, scattering to the ground.

But this single ray of Seven-Colored Spiritual Light alone wiped out at least half of the Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants making up the insect cloud!

If these were intelligent demon beasts, facing such a situation of instant casualties over half, they would definitely delay their attack to assess the situation.

But the Spirit-Eating Flying Fire Ants swarm knows no fear. The massive deaths of their kin are not enough to stir any emotions within them.

This is what makes insect swarms most troubleso; as long as their swarm leader doesn’t issue a retreat order, they will fight to the last ant without taking a step back.

Jiang Fengxian knew well this would be the case, so after releasing the Seven-Colored Spiritual Light, she then opened her mouth and spat out a ball of seven-colored flas.

This cluster of seven-colored flas ejected from her mouth transford into a spirited flaming phoenix that swooped toward the "spirit-eating flying fire ants".

The ordinary "spirit-eating fire ants" have extrely strong fire resistance, and even the True Fla of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator cannot easily burn them to death. Now the "spirit-eating flying fire ants" attacking Zhouyang are even stronger, able to briefly survive in Earth Fire.

From this, it can be seen that using Fire Magic and Divine Techniques to attack "spirit-eating flying fire ants" is a decidedly poor strategy.

However, the cluster of seven-colored flas ejected by Jiang Fengxian seed to differ from ordinary Fire Elent Divine Techniques.

Once the "spirit-eating flying fire ants" were touched by these seven-colored flas, they did not burn into ashes but instead exploded in mid-air with "boom boom boom" sounds.

After these two successive waves of attacks, the once nacing swarm of "spirit-eating flying fire ants" was directly exterminated by more than half, and the remaining numbers pose no danger.

And at this ti, the leader controlling the "spirit-eating flying fire ants" swarm from afar seed to realize that the enemy’s strength exceeded their hunting range, and proactively issued a command to retreat the ants.

After half an hour, Zhouyang felt sufficiently safe and stopped running, putting down Jiang Fengxian, who was carried on his back.

At this ti, Jiang Fengxian had already retracted the seven-colored phoenix wings on her back, and her beautiful eyes had returned to the distinct black and white colors of human eyes. Although her deanor remained noble and luxurious, she lacked the forrly unapproachable sacredness.

"Let’s rest here for a while; this place should be temporarily safe."

Zhouyang looked at the stunning beauty in front of him, moved his throat but held back the questions in his heart.

He knew Jiang Fengxian would surely provide an explanation voluntarily, and there was no need for him to appear so impatient.

Indeed, after half a day’s rest and once Jiang Fengxian had recovered the Magical Power expended earlier, she proactively entered Zhouyang’s tent and began discussing her origins and background.

"Brother Zhou has also visited the Wilderness Jungle, and should be aware that many different races of Barbaric Alien Race live within it, and my father is actually from a Barbaric Alien Race known as the [Celestial Phoenix Race] deep within the Wilderness Jungle."

"The [Celestial Phoenix Race] is said to have True Saint Phoenix bloodline flowing through their veins. Their appearance is generally similar to humans, except they have wings on their back, are born able to fly, and have bird-like down on their body surface, with their eyes, nose, and palms showing so predatory bird characteristics."

"However, just like Tier Six Demon Beasts can take human form, those powerful beings in the [Celestial Phoenix Race] equivalent to Golden Core Stage Cultivators can also slightly repress their bird-like traits to resemble humans, only retaining a pair of wings representing their source of power and identity."

"My father originally saved my mother from certain death from a group of Barbaric Alien Race while training in the Wilderness Jungle, and developed a cross-racial romance."

"But as Brother Zhou knows, the Barbaric Alien Race generally harbors animosity toward Human Race Cultivators, although my father disregarded my mother’s human identity to fall in love, those alien people of [Celestial Phoenix Race] would not agree to him being with my mother, especially since my father was the son of an elder, whose strength is comparable to a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator."

"Thus, shortly after my mother conceived, my father was forcibly taken back by my grandfather to the [Celestial Phoenix Race], never allowing them to see each other again."

"Later, while I developed in my mother’s womb, due to the repulsion between Human Race bloodline and Barbaric Alien Race bloodline, signs of miscarriage and early mortality erged. To save my life, my mother sacrificed her longevity, using a Secret Technique to transfer her vital essence to , keeping alive."

"The consequence was, shortly after I was born safely, my mother, a Golden Core Stage cultivator, due to exhausting all her lifespan, passed away in front of at less than five hundred years old!"

"Before her passing, my mother repeatedly instructed not to easily expose my [Celestial Phoenix Race] bloodline in front of others, nor to casually use the innate abilities of the [Celestial Phoenix Race]; she also prohibited from contacting Human Race cultivators of Nascent Soul Stage before reaching the Golden Core Stage, and from venturing deep into the Wilderness Jungle to find my father before reaching the Nascent Soul Stage!"

"Therefore, over the years, I’ve only dared to open a cave and practice in the Wilderness Jungle, and even when occasionally needing to enter Nanman Country to purchase items for cultivation, I’ve been extrely cautious to prevent anyone from discovering my secret!"

In the quiet tent, only Jiang Fengxian’s somber, sorrowful voice echoed.

Throughout all these years, she never disclosed these matters to others; she has kept the secret of her origins for centuries.

Sotis she wished to confide in soone to relieve her suppressed emotions.

But she didn’t dare, she didn’t dare share these with those so-called "companions" who are only known on the surface but not known deeply, because if anyone leaked this secret, the consequences for her would be dire.

If Nascent Soul Stage cultivators learned of this, they would surely be very interested in capturing her for study, or even keeping her as a concubine.

If she encountered so malevolent Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, they might find ways to extract the "Phoenix Bloodline" from her body.

This ti, eting Zhouyang again in the Kunxu Realm, seeing Zhouyang willing to risk accompanying her to hunt the Poisonous Flood Dragon despite knowing the dangers, and being honest with her about his true origins, she dared to expose her secret before Zhouyang, revealing everything.

From this, it can be seen she truly views Zhouyang as a trustworthy confidant.

In life, a confidant is rare.

Having a confidant to share one’s unknown secrets is naturally a wonderful thing.

Upon hearing her narrative, Zhouyang also sighed with emotion: "I never imagined, Fengxian, you have such an extraordinary and convoluted lineage!"
