BXBX NOVEL Chapter 395: I’d Rather Die Than Submit!
Chapter 395: I’d Rather Die Than Submit!
In the turbulent void, dazzling flames blossomed like flowers.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s eyes were tightly shut as she sat in the air with a majestic aura. Two terrifying flames interweaved and clashed within her body, stirring up waves that spread outward.
Even though the Immortal Phoenix Queen was circulating her energy with all her might, the violent Nan Ming Li Fire was still restless as if it wanted to burn her to a cinder.
This was mainly because the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s Nan Ming Li Fire was simply too powerful.
Nan Ming Li Fire was a flame ranked tenth on the Exceptional Fire List. It originally shouldn’t have such terrifying power.
However, after 10,000 years of refinement, the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s Nan Ming Li Fire’s power had become extremely terrifying. It was not inferior to the flame ranked at the top of the Exceptional Fire List.
Now that the Nan Ming Li Fire had gone berserk, even an expert like the Immortal Phoenix Queen would have to endure the pain of being burned by flames.
Fortunately, there was another type of flame in the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s body that could contend against it.
This flame was called the Indestructible Divine Phoenix Eternal Flame.
The Divine Phoenix Eternal Flame was ranked fourth on the Exceptional Fire List and was the Immortal Phoenix race’s inheritance flame.
This type of flame contained extremely powerful vitality, and it could continuously provide the power to control the power of rebirth.
With this flame, one’s recovery ability could be said to be extremely powerful.
Even if one suffered grievous injuries and was on the brink of death, they could make use of this fire to be reborn.
At present, the Immortal Phoenix Queen was relying on the Divine Phoenix Eternal Flame to fight against the Nan Ming Li Fire.
After all, the sword beam previously was just too terrifying. It could even shatter the heavenly tribulation. Just a wisp of the sword beam that dispersed from it was enough to heavily injure the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
“The two flames in my body are now in a conflict. If I am unable to strike a balance between them today, it is likely that I will be in trouble.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s tone was grave. The power of the extraordinary items was extremely powerful.
Since ancient times, there were rarely people who had more than two types of extraordinary items within their bodies. Normally, those who dared to attempt to take in more than one would be torn to pieces by the conflict between the extraordinary items.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen had two exceptional fires in her body. She was naturally incomparably powerful and had a very high penetrating attack power.
But now that she was heavily injured, these two great exceptional fires would instead become incomparably troublesome in the future. A single mistake might even destroy her Dao Foundation.
At this time, energy turbulence could be felt in the void.
“Mmm?”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen sensed it immediately. She turned around and saw a beam of divine light flying toward her at breakneck speed.
“This is... the Golden Crow Thearch’s Divine Sun Cauldron?”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s eyes lit up. She naturally knew of the Golden Crow Thearch.
The Golden Crow Thearch was a Demon Thearch, to begin with. After ascending to the Celestial World 80,000 years ago, there had been no news of him.
And ever since news of the Immortal Abode Island’s appearance spread, the Immortal Phoenix Queen had rushed over immediately to investigate.
However, there was an array set up by the Golden Crow Thearch outside the Immortal Abode Island that blocked her from entering.
Coincidentally, the Immortal Phoenix Queen had felt that her next heavenly tribulation was about to descend.
Thus, she had simply dived and entered North Sea’s void. She had planned to use the Spirit Ores in the array left behind by the Golden Crow Thearch to aid her in transcending her tribulation.
However, she never imagined that a sudden and shocking sword strike would actually heavily injure her.
Now that she saw the Golden Crow Thearch’s Divine Sun Cauldron, the Immortal Phoenix Queen was delighted.
“The Golden Crow Thearch wields the True Sun Fire, and the Divine Sun Cauldron is his Thearch artifact. Perhaps there will be remnants of the True Sun Fire in it.
“If I refine the True Sun Fire, I will be able to balance the exceptional fires in my body and resolve the current crisis. I might even be able to advance further.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s current situation was very dangerous. If she wanted to completely resolve the trouble she faced, she needed to obtain another exceptional fire to form a tripartite balance.
After that, she would have to rely on the Divine Phoenix Imperial Sutra to recover.
However, this condition was extremely harsh. After all, how could there be an exceptional fire appearing in this void?
Now that the Divine Sun Cauldron had appeared, the Immortal Phoenix Queen saw a ray of hope. If she could refine the True Sun Fire, she had a high chance of resolving the crisis she was facing.
Perhaps she could even borrow the True Sun Fire’s power to break through her shackles and advance her cultivation further.
As a result, the Immortal Phoenix Queen did not hesitate at all. She directly reached out her slender jade-like hands and grabbed toward the Divine Sun Cauldron, wanting to draw it over.
Clang!
The cauldron trembled.
Shen Tian, who was inside the Divine Sun Cauldron, was instantly jolted awake.
What is this?
I’m carsick. I’ve set it on autopilot for a while, and now I’ve been hit?
The key was that he was in the void!
Are there any other drivers in the void?
Could I have crashed into the void barrier?
Shen Tian was delighted when he thought of this.
If it was really the void barrier, then it meant that he could finally leave this forsaken place!
Shen Tian rushed out of the Divine Sun Cauldron and confidently prepared to shatter the void barrier and escape from the void.
However, the moment he came out, he realized that something was amiss.
A figure appeared before him.
She was a woman in a fiery red-feathered dress and looked gorgeous like fire.
Her peerlessly beautiful face seemed to have been carved out of Spirit Jade. Her skin was smooth like ice, and her bones were beautiful like jade. Her temperament was cold and aloof, not inferior to any woman Shen Tian had ever seen.
Or rather, this noble, cold, and exquisite aura was enough to stun the entire five regions.
At the same time, Shen Tian could also sense an incomparably terrifying aura contained within that figure.
It was comparable to his Master!
...
Seriously? I encountered such a terrifying existence in the boundless void?
“Hehe, I didn’t expect that there would actually be such a handsome human in this Divine Sun Cauldron.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen examined Shen Tian with interest and chuckled.
Shen Tian’s appearance transcended that of the mortal world, and he was like an immortal from the Celestial World. He was more handsome than all the humans she had seen in the past 10,000 years.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen was Southern Border’s ruler, a supreme demon expert, but above all that, she was a woman who was obsessed with one’s looks!
Upon seeing that he was being targeted, Shen Tian’s heart tightened. “Er... Senior, this junior has accidentally barged into you. Please forgive me.”
However, Shen Tian realized that being handsome had its benefits.
At least, he wouldn’t be slapped to death easily by someone else.
“You actually dare to wander about in the void with your Nirvana cultivation? You’re really courageous, kid!
“You are even able to control the Golden Crow Thearch’s Divine Sun Cauldron. Who exactly are you?”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen was also curious. Even Sages didn’t dare to stay in the turbulent void for long, let alone Heavenly Venerables and Supermacies.
However, Shen Tian was still alive and well with his Nirvana cultivation.
Even the Golden Crow Thearch’s Divine Sun Cauldron had fallen into his hands.
This made the Immortal Phoenix Queen curious. What kind of person could possess such talent?
“Senior, this junior is a disciple of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, Shen Tian.”
Shen Tian responded, but his thoughts were running wild.
Now that the situation had become bad, he had to think of a way to escape. After all, this existence was too terrifying. Being with her made him feel very insecure.
“Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?
“Oh? Are you the legendary Divine Firmament Saint, Shen Tian?”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen spoke with slight surprise. She had heard some news about Shen Tian from a group of juniors that had caused a stir in Southern Border.
After all, the news was brought back by a peak prodigy of the Five-Colored Peacock race, which made many of the prodigies of the demon race indignant. They wanted to go out and have a fight with Shen Tian.
However, how could an existence like the Immortal Phoenix Queen care about such trivial matters?
She hadn’t expected to see Shen Tian in the void, so this made her even more interested in him. She wanted to see what was so special about this kid.
“Senior must be joking. That’s just an exaggerated false reputation.”
Shen Tian knew that he couldn’t pretend in front of such an expert.
However, the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s eyes narrowed.
“Hm, why do I sense Old Woman Ao Bing’s aura on you? I didn’t expect that old woman to still be alive. On top of that, she has even formed a contract with a human.
“But it’s still understandable. This female Dragon has a lustful nature and likes to find handsome guys.
“Hehe, she is really shameless. An old Dragon like her still has the face to be together with a young boy like you.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s tone was slightly mocking. She was clearly not on good terms with Ao Bing.
Shen Tian’s hair stood on end as he instantly guessed that figure’s identity. She was someone who didn’t get along with Ao Bing, and her strength was so formidable as well!
Other than Southern Border’s ruler—the Immortal Phoenix Queen—who else could it be?
“Senior Phoenix Queen, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home, so I’ll take my leave first.”
Shen Tian’s hair stood on end. This was a peerless expert and Ao Bing’s archenemy, yet he had actually encountered her.
Now that the Immortal Phoenix Queen knew of his relationship with Ao Bing, how could she let him off so easily?
Thus, Shen Tian felt that it was best for him to leave as fast as he could!
With that said, Shen Tian circulated the Kun Peng arts, wanting to leave this place.
“Stop right there. I won’t eat you.”
A tyrannical pressure burst forth from the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s body, causing Shen Tian’s body to stiffen.
Shen Tian’s heart sank upon hearing the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s words.
Oh no, oh no!
I won’t be able to keep my life!
Surprisingly, Shen Tian sensed that the Immortal Phoenix Queen didn’t seem to be hostile.
“Senior Immortal Phoenix Queen, how can I help? I’ll do my best,” said Shen Tian.
“Am I that old? Call me Sister!”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen spoke indifferently as if she cared a lot about the term ‘Senior’.
Shen Tian, “...”
Why did women at her age like to be called sister?
“Sister Phoenix Queen, I noticed that the aura within your body seems to be slightly chaotic. I have some Nirvana Holy Liquid and Triple Light Divine Water here, and they might be of some use to you.”
Shen Tian could also sense the violent aura within the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s body. The aura seemed to even want to overturn the heavens.
At the same time, Shen Tian was puzzled. Just what could heavily injure a peak existence like the Immortal Phoenix Queen?
He could not understand!
Given the current situation, Shen Tian still had to think of a way to stabilize this woman.
What if this woman, who is in a bad mood because of her injuries, kills me out of the blue?
In any case, he had plenty of Nirvana Holy Liquid and Triple Light Divine Water with him. He wouldn’t feel a pinch even if he gave some away.
“Kid, you’re really lucky to even obtain the Nirvana Holy Liquid and Triple Light Divine Water, but those things are useless to me.”
“I want... the True Sun Fire in your body.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen coldly spoke, her gaze fixed on Shen Tian as a murderous aura spread out.
She was still worried about not being able to resolve the abnormal flame rebellion in her body, yet Shen Tian had actually delivered himself to her.
If she extracted the True Sun Fire from his body, the Immortal Phoenix Queen would definitely be able to suppress the exceptional fires in her body.
Shen Tian broke out in cold sweat.
The True Sun Fire was just a fire seed that was smelted into his body and could not be taken out so easily.
If the Immortal Phoenix Queen wanted the True Sun Fire, she could only forcefully extract it.
Doesn’t that mean that I am doomed?
No, I must think of a way to leave!
If there is no other way, I will use the bronze ring again!
He wondered if the Empress in the bronze ring would help him again.
Damn it! I am really so unlucky!
Shen Tian expressed his melancholy.
At that moment, a slender hand caressed Shen Tian’s face. “Moreover, you’re Ao Bing’s man, so I naturally can’t let you off easily.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen chuckled.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen was the archenemy of the Black Dragon Island’s Dragon Lady, Ao Bing.
Neither of them was willing to admit defeat, and they were extremely competitive. Thus, the Immortal Phoenix Queen wanted to snatch Shen Tian, who had signed the Dragon God contract with Ao Bing.
Of course, Shen Tian’s stunning appearance was also an important reason.
After seeing this face, the Immortal Phoenix Queen could not bear to kill him and extract the True Sun Fire from his body.
Such a peerlessly handsome man should be kept by her side.
“Boy, This Highness wants to sign a Phoenix God contract with you and let you become a human of the Immortal Phoenix race. I wonder if you agree?”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s indifferent voice resounded as if she didn’t give anyone the chance to refuse.
Indeed, one probably didn’t know how to write the word death if they really dared to reject the invitation of a top powerhouse!
Shen Tian knew this very well.
Under such circumstances, he had no choice but to lower his head.
Moreover, forming a contract with the Immortal Phoenix Queen and becoming a human of the Immortal Phoenix race was not something shameful.
Perhaps he would even gain another bigshot who could protect him in the future.
Just thinking about it made him feel great!
Shen Tian spoke. “This junior is willing!”
Knowing that he could not resist, he could only accept it silently.
“Alright, then let’s sign the contract.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen was very decisive. She immediately set up a contract array in the void.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen said calmly, “Inject your blood into it, and you can sign the contract with me.”
Shen Tian nodded. He was very familiar with this process, but he had never formed a contract with an existence on the level of the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
Even when he had formed a contract with Ao Bing, she had been heavily injured, and her strength had fallen to rock bottom.
But for some reason, Shen Tian was a little excited.
Soon, the Phoenix God contract was completed.
At the same time, Shen Tian felt a blazing energy entering his body. It was the power of the Immortal Phoenix race’s Phoenix God.
Previously, Shen Tian had also obtained the Dragon God’s power precisely because of the Dragon God contract with Ao Bing.
It was the same right now. If he formed a contract with the Immortal Phoenix Queen, he would naturally be able to obtain a portion of the power of the Phoenix, and he could even cultivate the Immortal Phoenix race’s supreme inheritance, the Divine Phoenix Imperial Sutra.
Thus, Shen Tian was delighted.
Not only had he gotten out of danger, but he had also obtained the power of the Phoenix God during this trip.
After forming the Phoenix God contract, the Immortal Phoenix Queen wouldn’t attack him, right?
Shen Tian heaved a long sigh of relief.
“Good. Then things will be settled much more easily.
“Brat, am I going to use the True Sun Fire in your body to suppress the exceptional fires in my body.”
At that moment, the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s voice sounded again.
‘???’
Shen Tian’s heart trembled.
What’s going on?
Didn’t we already form a contract?
Why are you still attacking me?
Seemingly seeing through Shen Tian’s doubts, the Immortal Phoenix Queen indifferently said, “Don’t worry, I’m not asking for your life. I was undergoing my tribulation here earlier, but a sudden sword aura injured me and caused me to lose control of the exceptional fires in my body.
“I want to use the True Sun Fire to cultivate.”
Shen Tian’s heart sank.
Could the sword aura that had injured the Immortal Phoenix Queen be the same the peerless Great Empress in the bronze ring had executed?
Shen Tian became increasingly certain. Only the peerless Great Empress could injure a peak expert like the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
I definitely can’t let the Immortal Phoenix Queen know about this. Otherwise, she will definitely tear me apart.
Thus, Shen Tian felt a little guilty and said, “Of course there’s no problem. What does Sister Phoenix Queen want this junior to do? This junior will definitely cooperate fully.”
For some reason, a blush appeared on the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s beautiful face.
Although she quickly concealed it, Shen Tian still caught it.
At that moment, Shen Tian suddenly realized that something was amiss with the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
Shen Tian raised his head slightly and saw two flames interweaving in the Immortal Phoenix Queen’s eyes. It was obvious that she had suffered Qi Deviation.
Instantly, an uneasy feeling rose in Shen Tian’s heart.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen spoke with a red face. “It must be the work of fate for you to appear here right after I’ve suffered Qi Deviation.”
Now that she had signed a contract with Shen Tian, she naturally couldn’t kill him to take the exceptional fire in his body.
However, the Immortal Phoenix Queen knew that there was another way to suppress the exceptional fires in her body.
That was because the Divine Phoenix Imperial Sutra had recorded a secret dual cultivation technique. If one were to dual cultivate with the person who signed the Phoenix God contract, it would be extremely beneficial to both parties. It was even more useful than directly refining the True Sun Fire.
Therefore, the Immortal Phoenix Queen planned to use this method to suppress the exceptional fires in her body.
“Forget it. Although your cultivation is shallow, your handsome looks are barely worthy of me. Today, you little pervert have lucked out!”
As the Immortal Phoenix Queen spoke, the fiery light in her eyes became more and more intense. It seemed that the Immortal Phoenix Queen was on the verge of going berserk, causing her soul to be in turmoil and making her make this decision.
However, the Immortal Phoenix Queen herself did not know this.
She only thought in her heart, I only want to recover from my injuries. It’s definitely not because this kid is handsome. Definitely not!
...
Shen Tian froze.
“???”
Shen Tian was dumbstruck.
What did the Immortal Phoenix Queen mean?
What did she mean by letting me, this little pervert, luck out?
What did I do?
Shen Tian soon understood what she had meant as the Immortal Phoenix Queen transmitted the Divine Phoenix Imperial Sutra’s secret dual cultivation technique to him.
Shen Tian shuddered.
Damn! This woman is coveting my body!
Shen Tian’s lips twitched.
How can this be condoned?
‘I have always been clean and honest. To this day, I am still a pure Yang body!
You want to taint my body?
Impossible!
‘I’d rather die than submit!’
“Sister Phoenix Queen, this is my first time!”
Alright, after sensing the terrifying aura emitted by the Immortal Phoenix, Shen Tian felt powerless to rebel.
As the saying went, “A man can bow and submit.”
This was definitely not because he was afraid of death!
Definitely not!
“So what if it’s your first time? Do I have to give you an award? Besides, this is also my first time. It’s not like you are suffering a loss.”
The Immortal Phoenix Queen’s face turned slightly red as she spoke to this point. She waved her hand and pulled Shen Tian to her side. Then blazing divine flames soared into the sky and formed a Dao field of flames.
For a moment, the endless spring sunshine was enveloped by the dazzling flames, leaving only a faint enchanting sound echoing in the void.
