Chapter 163 Capturing the Golden Crow
Flames burned on the seven tail feathers of the phoenix, which were made of petals, while tiny ice beads condensed around its body.

This also explains why Kimya's weapons are so cold.

Lin Zhao not only successfully blocked his Golden Crow Scorching Sun Slash, but also successfully controlled himself in terms of temperature.

"How is this possible?!" Jin Ya exclaimed incredulously, "You're also a fire elementalist, how can your temperature be so low?!"

"The burning of flames does not necessarily emit very high temperatures." Lin Zhao stroked the petals of the Heavenly Phoenix in front of him, quickly replenishing the almost depleted spiritual power in his body before the final strike.

She appears to be in good condition now, but in reality, it took more than a dozen Thousand Spirit Blossoms and Phoenix Harmony combined to block the opponent's attack. Even that almost drained her dry. She must remain calm and recover quickly during this time.

Lin Zhao hadn't forgotten that the person opposite him was a true divine beast cub, whose physical attributes surpassed his own and whose innate advantages were far superior.

Fortunately, Jin Ya did fall for her trick.

Or rather, the news that the Golden Crow Scorching Sun Slash was completely overwhelmed by the opponent's temperature and completely resisted it had a cognitive shock to Jin Ya, and she found it difficult to notice Lin Zhao's current bluster and cowardice.

"The Thousand Spirits Blooming is the most powerful attack force of a sword cultivator's sword energy when it is in attack mode. It is the ultimate bloom of sword energy's offensive power, not the bloom of spiritual energy. Therefore, the temperature generated by a cultivator of any attribute will be the same." Lin Zhao didn't mind talking a little more to buy time and explain it to her clearly.

Jin Ya finally managed to get rid of the blue flames on her hand. Looking at her hand, which was almost half-cooked, she asked angrily, "Wasn't this the blooming of sword energy? How do you explain this?"

"Oh, although it's sword energy that's being unleashed, I'm a fire-attribute cultivator. When I used spiritual energy to activate the Thousand Spirit Blossoms and merge it with the sword energy, it was inevitable that the Thousand Spirit Blossoms would carry a bit of flame. I was quite troubled by that, and it took me a lot of effort to ensure that the flames didn't affect the attack power of the Thousand Spirit Blossoms."

Her innocent expression made Jin Ya want to rush up and bite Lin Zhao.

What do you mean by "no effect"? The cyan flames had clearly merged with her sword energy. Although they were flames and seemed to have a low temperature, once they separated from the sword energy, the scorching heat they generated could burn a Golden Core cultivator to death in minutes.

Fortunately, she was thick-skinned and managed to escape the flames before she was fully cooked.

"A treacherous villain." As Jin Ya recovered from her injuries with spiritual energy, her gaze towards Lin Zhao was practically sparking with malice.

"You think you won?"

Now that she knew about Lin Zhao's methods, she had nothing to fear!

Jin Ya took a deep breath: "Today I'll show you what a true aerial supreme is!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her wings unfurled, her neck lengthened, and her limbs retracted, transforming into a three-legged golden crow about the size of six or seven tigers in Lin Zhao's slightly surprised gaze.

Is this the real form of the Golden Sprout?
As expected of the warlike and bloodthirsty Golden Crow, it went straight for its true form.

Lin Zhao withdrew her hand from the flower petals of the Heavenly Phoenix. "Go."

The Golden Crow let out a long cry towards the blazing sun overhead. Before the sun could respond, Lin Zhao's petal-shaped phoenix had already flown above it, and the two raptors, so different in size, began to fight.

The difference is that the Golden Crow sheds feathers, while the Petal Phoenix sheds petals. Every time it sheds a petal, Lin Zhao summons it back.

Under the guidance of Granny Honghu, using her fingers as a pen and blood as ink, she wrote the spiritual seal on the flower petals.

After the Golden Crow had pecked away most of the last few petals of the Phoenix, it let out a loud cackle.

Then, it turned around and flew aggressively towards Lin Zhao, excitedly making human-like sounds.

"Gah gah gah! Lin Zhao, prepare to die, gah gah gah!"

The large crow, excited by its recent victory, flew towards him in a wobbly, unsteady flight.

This posture and the other party's strange voice almost made Lin Zhao's hand, which was writing the spirit seal, tremble.

Grandma Honghu was silent for a moment before saying, "Just as I thought."

The Three-Legged Golden Crow race is warlike by nature and possesses strong talents and bloodlines. Although there is only one in each generation, it is virtually immortal as long as the sun does not disappear before it reproduces.

Unless the Golden Crow's own Dao heart is shattered and its Dao body perishes, it would be difficult for the Three-Legged Golden Crow to die even if it wanted to.

However, in ancient times, it was not uncommon for the Dao Heart to shatter. Coupled with the Three-Legged Golden Crow's tendency to fight nine out of ten times they walk, it's understandable that Granny Honghu suspects they are extinct. After all, despite these advantages, the Three-Legged Golden Crow still has one absolute disadvantage.

—My brain wasn't working very well in my childhood.

Therefore, it is extremely rare to see a three-legged golden crow in its juvenile stage.

This young three-legged golden crow was actually quite intelligent for its kind, at least it knew how to hide itself. However, it was only after being impacted that it revealed its true form due to its warlike nature.

But now that their true forms had appeared, their actions went much more smoothly.
Lin Zhao used the spiritual energy she had just recovered to activate the petals of the spirit seal and pointed them toward the golden bud that was flying toward her.

Jin Ya was naturally not afraid of the petals of these defeated opponents. Before these petals could take shape, they were just a bunch of things that would disappear once the spiritual energy support was withdrawn.

So the golden buds allowed themselves to be surrounded by these soft, harmless petals.

She let out a roar when the last petal flew onto her forehead.

However, after this petal landed, it seemed to awaken the other petals covering her, which simultaneously emitted fine white threads.

Amidst Jin Ya's repeated cries of anger, resentment, confusion, and shock, these seemingly soft and fragile white threads wove into a net, firmly enveloping her. She tried to peck through the net with her sharp beak, but was frightened back by the terrifying aura emanating from it.

She is a pure-blooded Golden Crow, and has always been very confident and proud of her bloodline and identity, so she trusts even more the reminders that come from her bloodline.

As she tried to peck through those thin threads, the fear emanating from her blood told her that this was something she could not resist.

Even after shrinking back, Jin Ya still found it hard to believe that the thin threads Lin Zhao had sent out could frighten her.

She is the Golden Crow! A divine bird that even the Heavenly Phoenix cannot defeat.

There is only one creature in this world that can suppress their race.

Ancestral Phoenix?!
The name appeared in Jin Ya's mind. Subconsciously, she shrank her body as the white threads contracted until she became the size of a normal crow. She was then trapped in the net of threads and held in Lin Zhao's palm.

Feeling Lin Zhao gripping the back of her neck, Jin Ya started squealing wildly.

"Don't kill me, hahahaha!"

Even though Lin Zhao physically killed her, she wouldn't actually die.

But in fact, she had already died physically several times before.

Each time her physical body perishes, it means that her soul will automatically return to the place with the highest radiant energy to reshape her physical body. This process can take anywhere from decades to hundreds of years, and she can only wait there foolishly for her physical body to recover.

This is so boring! She doesn't want to!
Otherwise, why do you think she seemed so insignificant on the Peacock Continent before? Wasn't it because she was afraid of dying in her physical body again?
She doesn't want to spend thousands of years growing into adulthood like that big idiot father!
Otherwise, her grandma will laugh her to death when she goes back!

Thinking about all this, Jin Miao's cries grew increasingly miserable.

Lin Zhao frowned deeply upon hearing this, and the others felt as if they were living a life worse than death.

The cry of the Golden Crow is not a simple sound; it is imbued with spiritual energy and can cause a shock to one's soul.

"Stop yelling, or I'll stew you right now." Su Bai walked over and threatened Jin Ya.

How could Jin Ya be intimidated by him?

The Golden Crow clan has never been afraid of any creature except for the Ancestral Phoenix, okay?

"Gah! Gah! Gah!" Jin Ya called out even louder to Su Bai.

Su Bai: "..." His fist hardened.
