4249 By a freak combination of factors,
“This is bad, I’ve been killed by master Ji this time!” Ling Chuxi wanted to cry but had no tears.
It was only then that Ling Chuxi reacted. With the power of the heavenly Dao, it was indeed possible to break the seal of the Dao Heart Stone. However, if one did not have the strength of a Supreme level or above, or if one did not have enough comprehension of the heavenly Dao, the power of the heavenly Dao released was not something she could absorb and use. To a venerable level master or a so-called master of the heavenly way, the power of the heavenly way contained in the Dao Heart Stone was undoubtedly a great supplement. But to her, it was a fatal danger.
Ling Chuxi also vaguely understood why the power of the heavenly way hidden in the depths of her Qi sea did not cause her any harm and even coexisted with her Yuan Qi. On one hand, it was because the trace of power of the heavenly way was not strong enough. On the other hand, it was also because the cultivation techniques of all five elements she cultivated complemented and countered each other, forming a delicate balance with the power of the heavenly way.
Otherwise, even if it was a divine level expert, it would be like burying a time bomb with such a trace of heavenly energy in his sea of Qi, let alone a monarch level expert like her. He could be blown up at any time.
However, how could master Ji know so much? he had only heard about it through hearsay. To put it bluntly, his direct understanding of the power of heavenly Dao was not even as good as Ling Chuxi ‘s. Of course, he could not be blamed for this. If he had known that Ling Chuxi herself had the power of the heavenly Dao and was really willing to break the Dao Heart Stone by force, he would most likely advise Ling Chuxi to think twice before acting.
This was a freak combination of factors!
The power of the heavenly way was still surging and condensing outside Ling Chuxi’s body. Ling Chuxi felt as if she was standing under a thousand-foot waterfall, being washed away mercilessly by the surging waves. The most terrifying thing was that the hard and violent power was still flowing into her meridians. Ling Chuxi weighed it for a moment. Even if the spiritual Qi of the tens of millions of five-colored spirit stones in her body was added together, it would not be able to compare to the power of the heavenly Dao contained in this small Dao Heart Stone. Unfortunately, such an abundant amount of energy was not something she could use. It would only take her life.
Ling Chuxi could only use Phoenix’s Nirvana to continuously repair her broken meridians. However, the speed of recovery was far faster than the speed of non-destruction.
If Ling Chuxi’s primordial soul had already reached the primordial spirit realm, she could just abandon this body and release her primordial spirit to escape. After all, she could rely on the primordial Spirit’s innate Qi and the Phoenix’s Nirvana fire to rebuild her body in no time.
However, his soul was still far from reaching that realm. If he used his soul now, he would only die faster.
Another wave of piercing pain hit her and even her Qi sea began to rupture. Ling Chuxi felt a trace of despair. Once her sea of Qi was shattered, she would not be able to gather her vital Qi, and her self-healing ability would also decrease by several times. Even the fire of Phoenix’s Nirvana would not be able to save her.
Ling Chuxi’s cold sweat was like rain. Her entire body was trembling violently as she used all her strength to resist the might of the heavenly Dao. She didn’t know how long she could hold on, but the longer she held on, the more hope she had of surviving.
No matter how vast the power of the heavenly Dao contained in the Dao Heart Stone was, it was still limited. There would be a time when it would be exhausted. As long as she could hold on until that moment, she would be able to come back from death’s door and even obtain unexpected gains.
Although she knew that this wish was a little ethereal, this was the only way Ling Chuxi could do it.
Just as Ling Chuxi was struggling to hold on,”chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp”, the familiar chirping of the little yellow chick sounded.
4250 Longing and determination
The little fellow flapped its wings clumsily as it flew over, one on top and one on the bottom. Through their mental connection, Ling Chuxi could clearly feel its anxiety and uneasiness.
“Go back, don’t come over.” Ling Chuxi shouted in surprise.
If it had already passed its growth period and grown into a true Phoenix, the little fellow should be able to withstand the power of the heavenly Dao. However, in its current state, there was no way it could withstand the might of the heavenly Dao.
Hearing Ling Chuxi’s cry, little chick’s body stopped in its tracks. It seemed like it had also sensed the fearsome power of the heavenly way.
However, immediately after, it noticed that Ling Chuxi’s face was unusually pale and her body was trembling violently. It raised its eyebrows and rushed towards Ling Chuxi without any hesitation.
A seven-colored ray of light rose in front of her and transformed into the illusion of a Phoenix. Its beautiful wings slowly spread out and protected Ling Chuxi.
Ling Chuxi’s pressure was greatly reduced and she could finally catch her breath. If not for little yellow chicken’s timely rescue, she might not have been able to hold on for even half an hour.
Ling Chuxi heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the little yellow chick. With just one look, she was completely stunned.
In just a few moments, the image of the Phoenix had dimmed significantly, revealing the true form of the little yellow chick. It had a gorgeous crown, rainbow-colored feathers, and a beautiful and slender tail. Other than being several times smaller, the little yellow chick was clearly the legendary Phoenix.
But didn’t it just reach its growth stage? how could it reveal its true Phoenix form? Ling Chuxi was confused as she carefully looked at the miniature Phoenix in front of her.
Very quickly, Ling Chuxi’s face, which had finally regained some color, turned deathly pale again.
The rainbow-colored feathers on its body were becoming darker and darker, even turning gray. The vitality of life was quickly disappearing from its body, and its eyes had lost their original look.
Ling Chuxi suddenly reacted. It was burning its Phoenix blood essence to resist the might of the heavenly Dao. It was also because of this reason that it had revealed its true phoenix body.
“Xiao Huang, stop.” Ling Chuxi’s tears flowed out in an instant. Her heart was in so much pain that it felt like it was being cut by a knife.
The little fellow did not stop there. He looked at Ling Chuxi deeply, his eyes full of longing, reluctance, and … Determination.
In an instant, Ling Chuxi felt as if she had returned to ethereal sect’s residence and seen all kinds of interesting things that had happened not long after the little fellow hatched. The past scenes flashed before her eyes and a warm smile appeared on Ling Chuxi’s face. She took a step forward with her sword in hand and welcomed the power of the heavenly way that dominated the heavens and earth.
No matter what, she could not allow little chick to die for her. Even if it were to die, she would accompany it.
It was not a spiritual pet, but Ling Chuxi’s best companion, or even family.
The power of heaven and earth once again surged into her body. Ling Chuxi’s fingers, which were holding the long sword, turned pale from the exertion. Her face was covered with a layer of dead ash, but in front of her body, a strange blood-red light flashed.
In order to reduce the pressure on the little yellow chick, she also began to burn her blood essence.
“CAW, CAW …” The little yellow chick cried out anxiously, but its voice was weak.
“Little guy, don’t worry. No matter what happens, I’ll be by your side.” Ling Chuxi gently stroked its wings, the color of which was getting lighter and lighter, as she spoke softly.
Little yellow chick seemed to understand Ling Chuxi’s intention. A glimmer of divine light flashed in its eyes as its little mouth swept over Ling Chuxi’s finger. Its eyes were actually filled with a sense of happiness.
