His blood was boiling!
This was a painful feeling of his blood boiling. The blood essence that Yao Yue had absorbed in the past now had different demonic beast phantoms roaring and struggling!
Yao Yue felt that his blood vessels were about to burst, and he couldn't help but let out a miserable shriek!
Soon after, the blood in Yao Yue's body broke out of his body. His blood was actually assimilating with the blood in the blood river!
If this continued, Yao Yue would become a dried corpse and die for good!
This was the first time Yao Yue was facing such a dangerous situation. This was even more troublesome than Nirvana Rebirth!
After all, Nirvana Rebirth only needed the blood of the Phoenix and the Heart of the Phoenix to survive. But now, without blood, how could he use the power of his blood to rebirth?
When Yao Yue's last bit of consciousness was about to disappear, he channeled the Ten Thousand Blood Devouring Art and began to absorb the blood he had lost. At the same time, he had to completely refine the blood in this place. Otherwise, he would die without a doubt!
The Ten Thousand Blood Devouring Art was a strange demonic art. It could absorb the blood essence of thousands of demons and turn their demonic abilities into his own!
However, after the formation of Yao Yue's Heart of the Phoenix, he had already tried his best to control the amount of demonic blood he absorbed. He would only devour the valuable demonic blood and demonic cores to increase his strength and gather more divine abilities!
This demonic art had both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage was that it allowed the user to have more demonic abilities. The disadvantage was that it would cause the bloodline to be too mixed, making it difficult to make the bloodline pure!
This was also the reason why Yao Yue could transform into a phoenix, but he couldn't form a phoenix crown!
If Yao Yue could form a phoenix crown, then he would be a real Phoenix. His Nirvana Rebirth ability would be even more outstanding, and the demonic abilities of the Feng people would be even more powerful!
However, Yao Yue was helpless in this regard. In order to increase his cultivation speed, it was impossible for him to not use the Ten Thousand Blood Devouring Art.
As he channeled the Ten Thousand Blood Devouring Art, Yao Yue's blood stopped flowing away, and a lot of blood continued to enter his body.
Roar!
All of a sudden, Yao Yue seemed to sense several powerful Demonic Beasts pouncing towards him, biting and devouring him.
These were all extremely powerful demonic beasts from ancient times. There were winged demonic rats, three-eyed demonic lions, and purebred Sky Rocs …
These demonic beasts all had extraordinary bloodlines. Their talents were extremely overbearing. Although they could not be compared with the top demonic beasts, there was not much of a difference.
Yo yo!
Yao Yue instinctively transformed into a Phoenix and charged towards the Demonic Beasts.
If he couldn't kill all of these Demonic Beasts, then only death awaited him!
This was the backlash effect of the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art!
Yao Yue had suffered some hardships in the past, but it was never as dangerous as this!
After all, the river of blood contained powerful ancient demonic beasts, and their battle prowess was incomparably terrifying!
The Phoenix fought against tens of thousands of enemies by itself. It used all of its strength to fight against them. Time and time again, its body was torn apart, but again and again, it would undergo nirvana and regenerate, withstanding the bites of these demonic beasts!
Unfortunately, the Phoenix's strength was still limited, and could not be compared to these ancient demonic beasts. Moreover, there were so many of them, and it was completely outnumbered!
At this moment, Yao Yue's body was covered in blood. The blood vessels in his body had ruptured once again, and his organs were on the verge of being destroyed. His entire body was in danger of being turned into a pool of blood at any moment!
This time, it was almost impossible for him to save himself!
Usually, when refining demonic blood, the level of the demonic blood could not be too much higher than the user's strength, or else it would be very difficult to withstand!
There was no lack of Demonic Emperor blood in the river of blood, and there was even the possibility of Demonic Sage blood. With Yao Yue's strength, how could he withstand it all?
Just as Yao Yue's body was about to shatter, another Phoenix cry was heard!
Yo yo!
This Phoenix cry was incomparably loud, and it was filled with the demeanor of a high and mighty Emperor. It caused many of the demonic beasts to tremble in fear.
They retreated one by one, and their eyes were filled with fear!
This Phoenix appeared in front of Yao Yue. Its body was not very large, and instead, it was slender and thin. However, its disdainful gaze was filled with arrogance and conceit. That dazzling Phoenix crown and that dazzling Phoenix tail all displayed its most noble side!
In front of it, Yao Yue could not only feel its sharp gaze, but he could also feel a sense of intimacy from its origin!
His Phoenix shadow was wailing, as if it had seen its kin, and it was yearning for its care and help!
In the next moment, this proud Phoenix rushed into Yao Yue's body, and immediately created a feeling of perfect harmony with Yao Yue's blood!
This feeling was very strange. It was as if two things that were originally together had merged together, and they were no longer separated!
Suddenly, Yao Yue felt an incomparably comfortable and calm feeling. It was as if he was soaking in a spring in winter, and every part of his body was filled with enjoyment!
All the injuries in Yao Yue's body were quickly healing, and all the pain had disappeared completely. What replaced it was a kind of bloodline purification!
He felt his body changing, and he had turned into a real Phoenix. There seemed to be something on top of his head!
It was the Phoenix crown!
This was the true symbol of the Phoenix clan, and it was a unique existence!
Yao Yue felt his blood boiling, and the warm feeling was very comfortable. He could not help but let out a soft moan!
Situ Qing and Situ Lian, who were outside the Blood River, were extremely worried!
Yao Yue had been in the Blood River for seven days, and they still did not see him come out. It would be strange if they were not worried.
"No, I have to find him!" Situ Qing said fiercely.
After saying that, she rushed towards the Blood River.
Roar!
Suddenly, a phantom of a demonic beast appeared, and it was as if thousands of demonic beasts had rushed out. The terrifying aura directly shook Situ Qing, and she vomited blood and was sent flying.
"Sister!" Situ Lian quickly flew over to catch Situ Qing.
"What … What a terrifying power!" Situ Qing said with a pale face.
"Don't force yourself. Look, the little dragon is still fine. Yao Yue will be fine!" Situ Lian comforted her.
Situ Qing could only continue to wait unwillingly!
At this time, a nine-colored light rushed out from the Blood River.
Yo yo!
Loud and clear cries rang out one after another. Vaguely, a beautiful and arrogant phoenix appeared in front of them!
The little dragon also bounced up, and its body became bigger, and its mouth faintly let out a dragon's roar!
The dragon and phoenix intertwined with each other, and it was as if the dragon and phoenix were singing together. It was as if a strange phenomenon was born, and it was very magical and pleasing to the eye!
Situ Qing and Situ Lian were stunned!
"Is … is this really a dragon and a phoenix?" They asked in their hearts, and their eyes were full of disbelief.
Dragons and phoenixes existed in legends and were extremely rare. Ordinary people would not be able to see them at all. It was no wonder that they had such doubts!
In the next moment, the Phoenix turned into a human figure. It was undoubtedly Yao Yue!
His entire temperament had changed completely. It was as if he was more perfect than before, and he was more noble and extraordinary than before. He was like a natural-born king, and he gave people the urge to worship and submit to him!
The Phoenix's blood had reached the major success stage!
At this time, the Phoenix's blood in Yao Yue's body had reached an extremely high concentration, and the Phoenix's Heart had become even more perfect. As for the other bloodlines, they had been completely assimilated into the Phoenix's blood!
In other words, the demonic blood that had been refined by Yao Yue in the past had been completely overtaken by the Phoenix's blood, and had been assimilated into the Phoenix's blood. There were no more mixed bloodlines to speak of!
This was the final step of the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art!
This was the original intention of the demonic phoenix when it created the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art!
How did Yao Yue reach this step?
It was completed because the Phoenix's blood that he had obtained after coming back from the dead was the same as the Phoenix's blood in the Blood River.
The Phoenix's blood in the Blood River was even more majestic and pure. It had mixed with the other demonic blood here, and after countless years of evolution, it had finally found the true meaning of the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art!
If Yao Yue did not have this fortuitous encounter, and he had been cultivating the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art, it would have been impossible for him to reach the peak, and it would have been difficult for his bloodline to reach a perfect state. It would have been almost impossible for him to become a true Phoenix with a phoenix crown!
However, after fusing with the blood here, Yao Yue had not only solved the imperfections of the Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Blood Art, but he had also solved the problem of the purity of his bloodline. Now, he could be considered as the true Son of Heaven of the Phoenix!
Due to the purification of his bloodline, his strength had also improved tremendously, reaching the late-stage low-grade Demon Sovereign realm. His Nirvana ability had become even more powerful, and his demonic energy talent had also improved greatly!
This was the effect of another nirvanic rebirth!
"Yao Yue, are you alright?" Situ Qing asked in alarm after regaining his senses.
"I'm fine. Sorry for making you guys worry!"
Yao Yue smiled. He paused for a moment before continuing, "You guys go back first. I still need to stay here for a few more days to find some things I need!"
"We'll wait for you here!" Situ Qing replied.
"Alright, I'll come out as soon as possible!"
Yao Yue said. He patted the shrunken little dragon and entered the Blood River again.
He could faintly sense that there were still some things he needed at the bottom of the Blood River!
Yao Yue entered the Blood River, and the little dragon followed after him.
Yao Yue released his senses and followed the direction of his sensitive spot.
The place was filled with thick blood, making it difficult for him to see the situation clearly.
However, Yao Yue did not have such concerns. He had already fused with the blood of the Blood River. His senses were incomparably sharp, and he had the Divine Eye. Naturally, he was much calmer than before.
Not long after, he saw half of a broken weapon stuck in the Blood River. Only a small part of it could be seen.
It was this half of the broken weapon that caused Yao Yue to have a strong reaction. The Divine Phoenix Halberd that was attached to his body actually rushed out. The flames flourished and the shadow of the phoenix swayed. It seemed to have formed some kind of connection with the broken weapon!
Swoosh!
The broken weapon broke out of the Blood River and attached itself to the Divine Phoenix Halberd. The two of them actually began to merge into one!
This was the other half of the Divine Phoenix Halberd!
