521: Chapter 116 Netherworld_3 521: Chapter 116 Netherworld_3 Phoenix Ancestor’s eyes held a hint of surprise, “Indeed, you have encountered a similar aura?” The little Peacock seed utterly indifferent to this breath, an ability uncommon to ordinary people.
Su He nodded, “I possess a Divine Skill that connects to the Netherworld, and the Netherworld Qi within it is much denser than this.”
Phoenix Ancestor was at a loss for words.
In fact, the Netherworld was sothing Su He had utilized many tis, but it hadn’t been during a grand battle that caught the attention of the Phoenix Clan.
His use of it at the Sealed Emperor’s Palace did attract the eyes of All Heavens and Myriad Realms, but at that ti, the Phoenix Clan had already begun preparations for this grand rite.
Unless Su He cried for help, they would not have had the leisure to attend to him.
Su He was different from the other young ones in his clan, having the Dragon Turtle Clan and Ji Feixue by his side.
The Phoenix Clan could let go.
Phoenix Ancestor flashed to Su He’s side, “What is the Netherworld?
Is it similar to the Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb?
This ti when you return, you should show it to .”
This world did not acknowledge the existence of the Netherworld, perhaps it once did, but it was covered up along with the history of the Four Sacred Beasts.
Phoenix Ancestor stepped forward, taking Su He with her, “Let’s proceed.
Go forth.
These Yin Ghosts here do not contain Life Jade; killing them is pointless.
The original plan was for you to adapt to the aura here, but since you’re naturally suited, we can head straight on.”
As she walked, she looked back and smiled, “If you were able to adapt to this aura, then perhaps I invited you too early.
Did I delay you from accompanying your wife?”
She well knew that Ji Feixue had been by the little Peacock’s side over these years.
Su He shook his head, “Grandmother has already arrived, my tardiness is already impolite.”
That Ji Feixue, who knows what she’s up to?
She’s been to Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb and must surely know the Netherworld Qi.
Having seen his Netherworld Passage, how could she not know that he does not care for it?
Yet she cozied him up here early without a clear reason.
“What is Life Jade?” Su He, walking alongside, asked.
Phoenix Ancestor chuckled before speaking earnestly, “All things in the world have their opposites and their counterparts.
In the most Yin of places, there will be Yang elents, and where death is absolute, there will be a chance for rebirth.
The Yin Ghosts here are the embodint of a death wish, but within their pure intent of death lies an infinite Life Energy.
They will congeal into jade that can Suppress Yin Ghosts, and by bearing the ultimate Yin Qi, one can obtain Life Jade.”
She turned to regard Su He, “The outside world’s rumors that Phoenixes are reborn from flas aren’t simply false tales.
Phoenixes indeed possess this ability, but not every Phoenix can achieve it.
Only tribe mbers guided here by the Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb after death have the chance.
And it’s only during the three major rites; if they are not resurrected after these three rites, they will sink into an unseen place.”
“This Life Jade is the primary material required for the grand rite,” she murmured softly.
“Life Jade is unique.
It bears the Qi of whoever hunted it down, and only the Life Jade of closely related bloodlines can be used for the Big Array.”
She looked into Su He’s eyes, which sparkled with unmistakable joy, “It’s not that the more Life Jade you have, the bigger the chance for rebirth.
Instead, the more varieties of Life Jade containing different auras, the greater the chance of resurrection!”
“Legend has it that after the Phoenix Ancestor passed away, there were nine progeny, and it was only when all nine descendants hunted Life Jade, each containing different auras, that they resurrected the Phoenix Ancestor— Little Yun Li’s Boundary Status is too low, naturally, he doesn’t need all nine children.”
She looked at Su He, her eyes filled with irrepressible joy.
There had already been two major rites, and she had almost lost hope, for despite hunting enough Life Jade on both occasions, none led to resurrection.
This was the last chance, and the grand rite was fast approaching.
By the blessing of the Phoenix Ancestor, in an unexpected place, Yun Li gave rise to a blood relative.
And it was his own child!
No one could imagine her excitent.
Two different types of Life Jade, doubling the chances of resurrection.
This was the Phoenix Clan’s, other than the Phoenix Ancestor’s, greatest opportunity for anyone eligible for resurrection.
Suddenly, Su He felt an imnse pressure.
He hadn’t seen Yun Li’s true body; the only ti was in the Prison Ghost Space, when Yun Li’s Soul Consciousness awakened as a Phantom.
From that situation, it seed that Yun Li was a gentle elder.
Even when he was still a Dragon Turtle, Yun Li was still kind and even protective.
Su He looked up, “Grandmother, I never asked… who is my grandfather?”
Hunting Ghost Creatures for Life Jade, could Yun Li’s father do the sa?
Phoenix Ancestor glanced at a Yin Ghost erging from the ground in the distance and, with a casual flick of her claw sending Ice flas that froze the Yin Ghost into icy fragnts that shattered and vanished into nothingness, she continued hunting while replying, “Him?
He wasn’t a Phoenix, just a Xuan Bird.
The Xuan Bird Tribe was annihilated three hundred thousand years ago.”
Phoenix Ancestor regarded Su He, “It doesn’t matter whether he died or lived; he couldn’t help Little Yun Li.
He couldn’t enter Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb.
Only the closest Phoenix Clan blood relatives could enter.”
The Peacock is part of the Phoenix lineage.
It is rumored that the Xuan Bird is also a descendant of the Phoenix, but that dates back to the era of the Phoenix Ancestor, countless Yuan etings ago, with the bloodline long since completely severed, no longer able to enter.
Su He nodded, then suddenly looked up again, “That’s not right!
Mother’s Soul Consciousness once awakened, saying that if given the chance, I could visit her grave and take its treasures.
At that ti, I wasn’t even a Dragon Turtle, just a Grass Turtle with Dragon Turtle Bloodline.
Besides—Ji Feixue said she ca to Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb when she was young.”
Phoenix Ancestor released a thread of Ice fla from her claws, casually destroying a Yin Ghost ahead, freezing it and shattering it into oblivion.
As she continued hunting, she said, “There are only two passages to Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb, one is where you and I entered, opened by the Phoenix Ancestor himself, accessible only to the kin of the buried.
The other is under the volcano, the Source of Shadows.
There lies a passage to the unseen place.
But apart from these two passages—as the grand rite draws nearer, the space of Phoenix Ancestor’s tomb becos increasingly unstable.
And not only the space.”
She looked at Su He, “Grandmother suspects, even ti may be unstable.
That’s why the grand rite can pull the deceased back from the river of ti!”
