Primordial Era: Reborn as Zhen Yuanzi, taking control of the underground passage

Chapter 204 Kong Xuan, the Golden-Winged Roc

So he nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist, please go with peace of mind. I will take care of everything in the temple."

However, that immortal volcano is an extremely scorching place in the primordial world, and it has been sworn to be suppressed by Yuan Feng. Fellow Daoist, you must act with caution and be careful in everything you do.

"I understand." Zhen Yuanzi nodded, expressing his gratitude for Hongyun's concern.

Immediately, he turned around, no longer facing Wuzhuang Temple, but transformed into a faint, earth-yellow stream of light that almost blended into the void.

Following the subtle coordinates contained in the message, they sped off towards the Southern Wilderness, towards the Undying Volcano that burns with an inextinguishable flame year-round.

Hongyun watched Zhen Yuanzi leave until the streak of light completely disappeared into the sky before turning around and pressing the escape light, landing inside the Wuzhuang Temple.

He harbored a slight doubt, but he could only suppress it for the time being and began to deal with the backlog of affairs in the temple while waiting for Zhen Yuanzi's return.

He had a vague premonition that Yuan Feng's request for help might uncover some unknown secrets in the post-war landscape of the Primordial Era.

At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi was traversing through the void while constantly making calculations in his mind.

"Yuan Feng swore to suppress it forever, and she herself became almost one with the immortal volcano. Anything that could cause her trouble and prompt her to seek help from outside—"

What could it be?

Was there a problem with the suppression? Or was there some internal strife within the Phoenix Clan? Or perhaps—it's related to the demonic thoughts left behind by Luo Hou? Or maybe, it's related to her own Nirvana origin?

He recalled the final battle between the Dao and the Demon, when Yuan Feng was severely injured and on the verge of death, her very essence almost completely drained by the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

Although the oath granted him a sliver of life through the power of Heaven's merit and bound him to the Undying Volcano, injuries of that severity were not easily healed.

"Could it be that there's a problem with her Nirvana?" A glint of light flashed in Zhen Yuanzi's eyes.

The phoenix's rebirth from the ashes, its ability to live from the brink of death, is both a racial innate talent and a miracle of the Great Dao.

However, if irreversible interference occurs during the process of Nirvana or one's own inherent nature is insufficient.

If Nirvana fails or causes an anomaly, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it might even affect the immortal volcano that it suppressed, triggering a catastrophic catastrophe.

"If that's the case, it is indeed troublesome. Moreover, she sought me out—was it because she valued my Earth Book's ability to contain all things and soothe the earth's veins?"

"Or did she sense the reincarnation aura of the Longevity Goddess and believe that I could help her stabilize her soul and true spirit?" Zhen Yuanzi, with his meticulous mind, kept analyzing various possibilities.

Whatever the reason, he decided to see for himself.

This is not only about an old relationship or a possible act of merit, but also an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the current state of the top beings in the primordial world and to verify one's own Great Dao in dealing with extreme situations.

His path to becoming an Earth Immortal is all-encompassing and inclusive. If he can quell the threat of the Undying Volcano and help Yuan Feng stabilize the situation, it will also bring immeasurable benefits to his understanding of the Earth Immortal path and the enhancement of his authority.

The light traveled swiftly, traversing endless mountains and rivers. The closer they got to the south, the more concentrated and active the fire elemental energy in the air became, and the temperature rose sharply accordingly.

The land below gradually changed from green to crimson, with sparse vegetation, mostly consisting of strange, fire-resistant plants.

In the distance, a huge crimson outline, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, gradually became clear. That was the source of all primordial fire, the eternally burning Undying Volcano!

A vast, ancient, violent aura, carrying a heavy sense of suppression, swept over them. Zhen Yuanzi could sense that the power contained within the volcano was enough to incinerate a Great Luo Immortal and severely injure a Primordial Golden Immortal.

Within that raging fire core, a weak yet noble aura, imbued with an indomitable will to rise from the ashes, was clearly pointing towards him—it was Yuan Feng!

The earth-yellow light that Zhen Yuanzi transformed into silently passed through the terrifying flame barrier surrounding the Undying Volcano, a barrier powerful enough to incinerate metal.

The deeper you go, the more amazing the scenery becomes.

Looking out, it was not just a sea of ​​fire, but a world of flames composed of countless divine and strange fires!

There was the crimson Southern Bright Fire, the pale and icy Bone Spirit Cold Fire, the flickering Samadhi True Fire, and even wisps of chaotic fire, displaying a chaotic hue and seemingly capable of burning the laws of nature.

They intertwine, collide, annihilate, and regenerate, forming a raging and magnificent, yet deadly, fiery kingdom.

The air was filled with an extremely dense fire law, as well as a deep, tragic, and eternally suppressive Daoist aura.

This is a sealing barrier formed by Yuan Feng using her own imperial origin and the power of the Heavenly Dao oath, firmly locking the destructive energy of the Undying Volcano, which was enough to overturn the south, in this place.

Zhen Yuanzi's body was enveloped in a flow of Xuanhuang Qi, and the phantom of the Earth Book appeared and disappeared behind him, keeping out the all-pervasive heat and fire poison.

His divine sense flowed like mercury across the ground, carefully perceiving every inch of this area, searching for Yuan Feng's aura.

However, to his slight surprise, he did not "see" Yuan Feng's enormous and magnificent phoenix form in the core of the volcano as he had expected.

His gaze finally settled on the core area of ​​the Undying Volcano, where instead of a gushing lava lake, there was a relatively calm, crystal-clear platform formed from pure innate fire essence.

Above the platform, the flames did not burn violently, but rather flowed around and nourished the two eggs in the center of the platform like gentle water.

Zhen Yuanzi flashed and appeared at the edge of the glass platform, gazing intently into the distance.

There were two giant eggs, each about the height of a person. Their shells were no ordinary objects; they were naturally engraved with profound Dao patterns and exuded a terrifying aura of innate origin.

One of them had a shell that shimmered with a chaotic array of five colors.

The five elements of green, red, yellow, white, and black flow and interact with each other on the surface of the eggshell like living things, endlessly forming a perfect miniature world of the five elements!

A powerful, incomparably sharp, and seemingly all-encompassing aura of the Five Elements, capable of sweeping away all things and stabilizing the earth, water, fire, and wind, swept over us.

Zhen Yuanzi himself had already perfected the Five Elements Dao, and was particularly sensitive to this aura. The name Kong Xuan immediately came to mind!

In the later War of the Gods, the five-colored divine light crisscrossed and looked down upon the world, known as the first strike below the level of a sage, and its origin was the transformation of the innate five elements!

The other eggshell is distinctly black and white, with the yin and yang energies resembling two intertwined fish.

Connected end to end, slowly rotating, it evolves the infinite mysteries of life and death, light and darkness, clarity and turbidity.

Although this Yin-Yang Daoist energy is not as sharp and domineering as the Five Elements Egg next to it, it is more profound and mysterious, containing the fundamental principles of the creation of heaven and earth and the generation of all things.

Zhen Yuanzi's mind stirred slightly, and he knew that its origin must be the owner of the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle in the later Journey to the West, the unruly Golden-Winged Roc who spread its wings for ninety thousand miles!

Upon seeing these two phoenix eggs, which contained boundless potential and top-tier innate essence, most of Zhen Yuanzi's previous guesses instantly became clear.

Yuan Feng's so-called "accident" and "request" must be closely related to these two newly born eggs.
