After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 301: Ancient Sky Array
Grandma Honghu sighed, "Back then, there was a traitor among the Creator Gods. All five Creator Gods perished together with the evil thoughts from the other world. The remaining cleanup work was done by the Immortal Master of the Seven Star Palace. Judging from your experience, girl, in recent years, the evil thoughts from the other world have not only been devouring the power of our cultivation world, but have also been constantly searching for the nascent form of the Immortal Master of the Seven Star Palace, killing them directly before they receive the inheritance."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao was suddenly terrified.

If this is true, and evil thoughts from another world have been allowed to run rampant in the cultivation world to this extent, how many forces in the cultivation world have been trustworthy all these years?

Even those so-called upper-realm forces are probably not entirely safe.

After all, ordinary cultivators cannot sense evil thoughts from another world. Granny Honghu and she were only able to detect them because they frequently interacted with the other party.

What about cultivators who were born in a peaceful era and have never come into contact with evil thoughts from other worlds?

Lin Zhao dared not think about it further, and after a long silence, she said, "Master, is it possible that I am not actually like that?"

For some reason, she felt a certain aversion to this identity.

Grandma Honghu didn't notice anything strange about her disciple: "Then let's wait. It's not a problem. The power of the Ancestral Phoenix in your body is already enough."

Lin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, threw the Seven Star Token deep into the Qiankun Bag, and stopped looking at it.

"We still have some time, teacher. Could you teach me a more powerful formation?"

Grandma Honghu chuckled: "I knew you little girl couldn't stay still. Your teacher has already picked out these two formations for you. Choose one."

Lin Zhao looked at the two scrolls floating in front of him.

Four silver-gray characters floated on a scroll: "Heavenly Withering Ancient Array".

On another scroll floated five large, gleaming golden characters: Heavenly Phoenix Imprisoning Demon Array.

Judging from the name alone, it seems that the Heavenly Phoenix Demon-Imprisoning Array is more suitable for me.

However, Lin Zhao always felt that the fluctuations emanating from the withered ancient formation that day were calling to him.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Lin Zhao grasped the scroll of the Heavenly Dry Ancient Formation: "This is it, Master."

Grandma Honghu wasn't surprised by Lin Zhao's choice. After putting away the Heavenly Phoenix Demon-Imprisoning Array, she smiled and said, "This array was actually created by the Demon Ancestor, and the Heavenly Phoenix Demon-Imprisoning Array was created by the Ancestral Phoenix. You and that boy are quite in sync."

Lin Zhao hadn't expected that this was actually a formation created by Su Bai himself. She gave a wry smile at Granny Honghu's words about telepathy: "Master, what's this called telepathy? But... is this really a formation created by the Demon Ancestor?"

Grandma Honghu smiled mysteriously: "To be precise, it was the Demon Ancestor who stabilized and modified this formation, which led to the creation of this sixth-level formation, the Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation. The true level of this formation is such that even when I was at my peak, it would be difficult for me to ascend to heaven."

Lin Zhao's mouth dropped open: "Then give it back to me, so I can choose?"

Grandma Honghu at her peak must have been a being beyond the level of a True Immortal. If even True Immortals can't use this formation, how could she?

Seeing Lin Zhao's stunned expression, Grandma Honghu chuckled and advised, "Don't be in such a hurry. You and your master are quite different."

She handed the scroll to Lin Zhao: "Try opening it?"

Lin Zhao took the scroll, took a deep breath, and braced himself to slowly open it.

The next moment, the scroll emitted a faint fiery red light that enveloped her.

A fiery red celestial phoenix, its entire body bathed in flames, appeared before Lin Zhao.

As for how it was identified as a Celestial Phoenix, it was because it was so beautiful, with every tail feather exuding an exquisite and noble beauty.

The phoenix stood gracefully before her, then transformed into a young man in a red robe. Lin Zhao's breath caught in her throat when she saw the young man.

It could be said that the young man before her was the most handsome man Lin Zhao had ever seen.

Even Su Bai, compared to the man before him, was still a boy who hadn't fully grown up, charming but lacking in substance.

The young man not only had a delicate face, but also a noble temperament. He had long, narrow phoenix eyes, jet-black hair tied behind his back, a cool and aloof demeanor, and a fiery and intense aura.

"I am the Fire Phoenix."

The young man spoke slowly.

Lin Zhao only realized that this person was Huo Feng, the eldest son of Tian Huang, after hearing the other party's self-introduction.

No wonder he looks so...

Lin Zhao withdrew his gaze and silently recited the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.

What remains of this scroll should only be a projection of the Fire Phoenix. After introducing himself to Lin Zhao, he began to explain the mysteries of the Heavenly Dry Ancient Formation. After teaching how to set up the formation and how to draw the talismans, the Fire Phoenix extended a finger.

Lin Zhao felt a chill run down his spine, as if the other party was pointing at him through those millions of years of time.

"This formation is entrusted to the Demon Ancestor for safekeeping. The modifications made by the Demon Ancestor were not my original intention. The Heaven-Withering Ancient Formation is the last formation before my demise. On the day it is completed, I will slay immortals and destroy Buddhas. The formation can create all things and also cause the heavens to wither. The day this formation is completed will be the day I inherit it."

After saying that, the young man's figure slowly disappeared in front of Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao was so engrossed in the mysteries of the formation that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Grandma Honghu waited for her to react for a long time before asking, "What's wrong? Were you blinded by the fire phoenix?"

Lin Zhao scratched his head: "Teacher, I'm wondering why the Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation has been modified so that any cultivator above the Heartbeat Stage can use it?"

Grandma Honghu laughed, "Because the most essential things need to be comprehended by oneself. The core formation set up by the Fire Phoenix was removed by the Demon Ancestor and replaced with a core formation that changes according to the level of the person setting it up. In addition, the Demon Ancestor also made it more crude in other details. However, judging from your reaction, you must have heard the Fire Phoenix explain the true prototype of the Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation to you... But I remind you, if you don't want to die, don't use the formation like that before you reach the Tribulation stage. The original Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation was created for the purpose of mutual destruction and world annihilation. Any one of the spiritual talismans in it can drain your spiritual energy."

Lin Zhao exclaimed, opened the scroll again, and looked at the explanation on it. Sure enough, it was different from the image in his mind.

She said thankfully, "Fortunately, I've already memorized it using my soul."

With that, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Master. This Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation is excellent!"

Grandma Honghu smiled mysteriously: "The ancient formation is quite impressive. Do you see Prince Fire Phoenix?"

Lin Zhao nodded and praised, "His beauty is unparalleled, and his demeanor is incomparable."

This is the only person who could elicit such an evaluation from Lin Zhao.

Grandma Honghu laughed and said, "Actually, compared to Prince Zufeng, Prince Huofeng is just so-so. So when Qu Shu grows into his complete form, he will be even more outstanding than Prince Huofeng. The male of the Tianhuang clan has a beauty that is rare in the world."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao knew that his master was going off on tangents again, so he simply focused on studying the formation and didn't respond.

Grandma Honghu talked to herself for a long time, and seeing that Lin Zhao had no reaction, she sighed: "You little girl, you put too much pressure on yourself. Be careful not to age prematurely."

Lin Zhao has already begun to try drawing spirit talismans.

Grandma Honghu: "..." Fine, she'll shut up.
