Chapter 352 Returning to Tian Ce
The sea was set ablaze, a month later.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have perfectly fused with the Shattered Heart of Chaos and have been rewarded with ten million Evil Points!" The system's cold voice rang in my mind.
"Haha, not bad, I got so many evil points and fused them, but it actually took me a whole month just to fuse this Broken Heart of Chaos." Bai Ke muttered excitedly.
In truth, a month is not a long time, and the value of a treasure like the Heart of Chaos is beyond estimation. Even in the outer realms, such a treasure would be enough to make supreme beings fight desperately for it, even if it is only a broken piece of the Heart of Chaos.
Some great cultivators sometimes go into seclusion for hundreds of years, or even longer, which is the norm. A mere month is just a blink of an eye.
He had reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage! Bai Ke felt the abundant power within his body and was overjoyed. The power within his physical body, in particular, astonished him; now, with just the power of his pure physical body, he was invincible at the Void Returning stage! Invincible beyond realms—this was truly a monstrous talent among monstrosities!
Bai Ke now looks even more imposing, especially with the fiery red mark on his forehead, which adds to his alluring and slightly sinister charm. His muscles are perfectly proportioned, not too much or too little. He's truly a heartbreaker!
"Young man, you're awake! Not bad, not bad, you finally have some ability to protect yourself," the phoenix and the little vermilion bird said as they flew over from outside the cave. The little vermilion bird seemed to have an even stronger aura and appeared somewhat holy!
"Thank you very much, Senior Phoenix. I will never forget your great kindness!" Bai Ke said respectfully.
"No need to be so polite. I'm only doing this so that Que'er can be safer. You must protect her well. I'm entrusting her to you!" Phoenix said solemnly.
"Senior, do you mean to..."
The little red pheasant chirped anxiously.
"Hehe, I won't die for now, but I still have some things to do. I need to leave the Mountain and Sea Realm, and my aura can no longer be concealed here." Phoenix said calmly, though she was a little reluctant to part with Little Vermilion Bird. All things have feelings.
Bai Ke carefully observed his surroundings and noticed that the poisonous fog was gradually dissipating. It seemed that the Chaotic Burning Sea would soon disappear and become an ordinary sea area. Bai Ke was somewhat disheartened that he had destroyed such a forbidden area.
"Is there anything else I can do to help you? I can't help you anymore," Phoenix said calmly.
"Reporting to Senior, I do indeed have another matter. I need a small bottle of your blood. I wonder if it will harm you?" Bai Ke said respectfully.
"Phoenix blood has the power to bring the dead back to life. You're doing this to save someone, right? No problem, take it." The phoenix spat out some blood, which shone with a red light, looking as dazzling as the sun. Bai Ke quickly put it into two small jade bottles.
"Thank you, senior!"
Bai Ke knelt down respectfully and said, feeling somewhat embarrassed. He had taken so many benefits from the other party, and taking the blood of a divine beast was actually disrespectful to the divine beast. He hadn't expected the phoenix to give him so much.
"Yes. Something big may happen in the Mountain and Sea Realm soon, so be careful. After all, my son's life is in your hands! Sparrow, take care of yourself! Your mother is going now!" Phoenix knew that this parting was a separation of life and death, and that they would never see each other again.
The phoenix was in such a hurry to leave in order to lure away its enemies; how pitiful are the hearts of parents everywhere! Human emotions are not necessarily superior to those of beasts!
The little Vermilion Bird cried out, tears welling in her eyes, hoping her mother wouldn't leave. After all, no matter how intelligent she was, she was still just a one-year-old child!
Bai Ke comforted the little Vermilion Bird with some sadness, feeling very distressed himself.
Even after the phoenix disappeared into the horizon, the little Vermilion Bird remained staring blankly at the sky. Bai Ke stayed with the little Vermilion Bird for half a day.
"Go to sleep." Seeing the little Vermilion Bird sleeping soundly on his body, Bai Ke sighed and put her into the jade wrench.
"Senior Phoenix said that something big might happen in the Mountain and Sea Realm. It seems I need to hurry back to Tian Ce Palace. With the Supreme Ancestor overseeing things, there shouldn't be any major problems," Bai Ke said.
Just in case, Bai Ke still opened Lingyun Ferry. With his current strength, he could return to Tian Ce Palace in less than a day.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, a great change occurred in the Chaotic Burning Sea not long ago. The poisonous fog has completely dissipated, and the monsters in the sea have disappeared without a trace. It is gradually becoming no different from the normal sea area," said an elder of the Tide Sect.
"Yes, I understand. You don't need to worry about this. Just focus on fighting the rebel alliance. They've been causing trouble for far too long while I was recovering!" Emperor Tide said in a low voice.
When Zhao Xueqian returned, she had already told the Emperor everything about the phoenix. The Emperor was also very surprised, but because the phoenix was a very important matter, he did not let anyone know about it.
The Emperor vaguely sensed that the upheaval in the Chaotic Burning Sea was definitely related to Phoenix and Bai Ke!
"That kid is no ordinary person. It seems he has indeed been hiding quite a few secrets!" the Tide Emperor murmured.
Tian Ce Palace, the main hall of the sect.
"Reporting to the Sect Leader, in the past month, the Rebel Alliance, together with some unknown forces, has been relentlessly besieging our Tian Ce Palace, causing huge losses. Any force that does not submit to them is slaughtered without hesitation. Their cruelty is appalling!" an elder said in the sect's main hall.
"How badly have the Tian Ce disciples been injured?" Ning Fengyi asked weakly.
"Because we were well prepared, the Tian Ce disciples suffered almost no casualties. It is all thanks to the Holy Son's foresight..." The elder immediately stopped and glanced at Elder Bai Yan.
Since Bai Ke had been missing for more than two months, many elders speculated that he might have died! However, Tian Ce Palace was in a period of internal and external troubles, and the Supreme Ancestor was keeping the news under wraps to prevent panic.
Some elders even privately suggested to the Supreme Ancestor that a new Holy Son be established, which angered the Supreme Ancestor, who rebuked them for their treacherous intentions. They had to kneel down and beg for mercy before being let off the hook.
However, this only made them feel that the Supreme Ancestor was hiding some information, but unfortunately they were wrong.
"Reporting to the Sect Leader, the rebel alliance openly attacked our palace gates at dawn today. Elder Murong is leading the disciples in a full-scale resistance and requests reinforcements!" a disciple said urgently.
"Ahem! Junior Brother Baiyan, there are many traitors, so I'll have to trouble you to go and support Elder Murong!" Ning Fengyi said, coughing.
"Senior Brother Sect Leader, please take care of yourself. Don't worry, I'll go right away. Someone! Help the Sect Leader to rest!" Bai Yan said worriedly.
"No, the sect has undergone a major upheaval and there are many matters to attend to. How can I rest? Help me inside to handle these matters!" Ning Fengyi said resolutely.
"Brother!"
"No need to say anything more, Junior Brother, hurry up and go support Elder Murong."
"Sigh!" Bai Yan sighed deeply, and suddenly thought of Bai Ke again. He had saved them and their fate was still unknown. If it weren't for the advice of the Supreme Ancestor, he would have gone to the Chaotic Burning Sea to find Bai Ke!
