Chapter 555: Chapter 24 The First Appearance of the Undying Divine Body

Within a mountain cave, a bonfire burned.

Qiu Hanying frequently glanced over at Lin Feng, who lay not far away on the ground.

After the woman in the black robe left, Qiu Hanying had brought Lin Feng here.

Qiu Hanying didn’t know what the man lying on the ground was called, nor did she know why he was being hunted.

Qiu Hanying was very kind, so she didn’t abandon Lin Feng.

…

“Cough cough.”

The violent coughing broke Qiu Hanying’s disordered thoughts.

Qiu Hanying quickly stood up and looked at Lin Feng. His complexion was deathly pale. After checking on him, her face immediately changed, “It turns out that his heart has been injured by Sword Qi; no wonder he has been unable to wake up. With such a wound, it’s going to be very difficult for him to survive.”

Qiu Hanying was somewhat anxious. She fed Lin Feng two Healing Pills, but both were spat back out.

Qiu Hanying was almost driven to tears, but she had no other options.

“If only my mother were here, she would definitely be able to heal him,” Qiu Hanying murmured, her pretty face turning pale.

But it was then that Qiu Hanying suddenly noticed something irregular. She looked at Lin Feng in astonishment.

“What is this?” Qiu Hanying was puzzled.

She felt that there seemed to be a powerful force within Lin Feng’s body that was gradually reviving.

“The slumbering Bloodline Power…” Qiu Hanying exclaimed.

…

Inside Lin Feng’s body, strands of slumbering Bloodline Power emitted astonishing fluctuations; they were like Order Chains, the Bloodline Shackles.

Those Bloodline Shackles opened.

Lin Feng’s Bloodline raced through his veins at a crazy speed, then poured into his chest.

“Hum.”

Astonishing waves surged from Lin Feng’s Bloodline, emitting beams of Divine Light.

Masses of mysterious energy were rapidly absorbed by Lin Feng’s injured heart.

A miraculous thing occurred.

The heart that had been damaged by the Sword Qi was healing at a rapid pace.

“What a strong recovery ability!”

Qiu Hanying, seeing Lin Feng’s wounds heal so quickly, couldn’t help but exclaim.

She had never seen such powerful Bloodline Power before.

This level of Bloodline Power even left her feeling shocked.

But finally, Qiu Hanying was able to let go of her worries, as she saw that Lin Feng’s injuries were healing, and his breath was becoming more stable and stronger.

A day later.

Lin Feng opened his eyes.

“Eh, my injuries have healed,” Lin Feng said in surprise.

He remembered that his injuries were severe.

“You’re awake,” Qiu Hanying said with a flushed face.

“Thank you for saving my life,” Lin Feng said, cupping his hands in gratitude.

“I didn’t really do anything,” Qiu Hanying replied, slightly lowering her head.

Lin Feng noticed that this Qiu Hanying seemed to be a very shy girl, not even daring to meet his gaze.

Moreover, Qiu Hanying was indeed beautiful. Although young, she had blossomed into an elegant figure.

“My name is Lin Feng, may I ask what your name is?” Lin Feng asked.

“Qiu Hanying!”

…

“It was sister Hanying all along; that day, I entered accidentally, I beg sister Hanying’s forgiveness,” Lin Feng said sincerely.

Qiu Hanying replied, “Back then, big brother had also entered unintentionally, Hanying doesn’t blame big brother!”

Lin Feng said, “Sister Hanying is truly understanding.”

He paused, then continued, “This Thunder Blade Secret Realm is fraught with dangers. How come sister Hanying is cultivating alone here?”

Qiu Hanying started to look distressed and said, “I was originally with my fellow disciples, but we were chased by a terrifying pack of Fierce Beasts and ended up separated.”

“So that’s what happened; sister Hanying need not worry, I’m sure you will reunite with them very soon!” Lin Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Hanying nodded, then opened her mouth as though she wanted to say something, but hesitated.

“Sister Hanying, if you have something to say, please don’t be polite with me.” Lin Feng noticed Qiu Hanying’s hesitation and said with a smile.

Qiu Hanying said, “It’s like this, I saw a stalk of Fire Phoenix Grass. Mother once instructed me to find this Spirit Grass in the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, but that stalk of Fire Phoenix Grass is guarded by several fierce firebirds, and I’ve been unable to get close. I hope big brother can help me!”

Laughing, Lin Feng said, “No problem, let’s head there now.”

Qiu Hanying immediately cheered up, smiling and saying, “Thank you, big brother!”

“Friends don’t need to be so formal,” Lin Feng said with a smile as he and Qiu Hanying set off for the mountain range she had mentioned.

It was a fiery mountain range, with flames reaching to the sky and temperatures scorching. Fire Phoenix Grass, such a rare type of Spirit Grass, could only grow in such specialized environments.

Lin Feng and Qiu Hanying entered the mountains, stealthily making their way to the deeper parts.

Lin Feng reached out with his Divine Sense, sweeping the area and revealing a look of surprise. “It seems there are only a few juvenile birds here. The adult firebirds are not among them.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Qiu Hanying burst into excitement.

Lin Feng and Qiu Hanying made their way to the deepest part of the valley, where, atop a cliff, Lin Feng saw a stalk of Spirit Medicine enveloped in flames.

Within those flames, a vague figure of a phoenix seemed to dance.

Fire Phoenix Grass!

…

Lin Feng’s eyes lit up. “Wait here for a moment,” he said. “I’m going to pick that Fire Phoenix Grass.”

“Please be careful, big brother,” Qiu Hanying cautioned.

Lin Feng nodded and quickly flew towards the Fire Phoenix Grass and plucked it.

“Squawk.” But at that moment, five or six fire-enshrouded birds, each over a meter tall, swooped out.

“Damn, Three-legged Golden Crows!”

Seeing the juvenile birds, Lin Feng’s face turned pale.

He hadn’t expected that the firebirds here would be the Three-legged Golden Crows of legend.

These were mythical creatures.

Even though their bloodline was likely not as pure as it once was, the offspring of a Divine Beast, flowing with Divine Blood, were terrifying nonetheless.

The Three-legged Golden Crows let out angry cries, spitting out balls of flame.

The flaming orbs exploded mid-air.

Bang, Lin Feng was sent flying, Qi-Blood churning, barely stopping himself from spitting out blood. If these were just the juveniles, how fearsome must the adult Three-legged Golden Crows be – could they kill him in one hit?

Lin Feng didn’t dare linger and quickly rushed towards Qiu Hanying. He scooped her up, unfurled his Golden Body Feathered Wings, and pushed his speed to the limit, dashing outwards.

“Squawk…”

But just then, from the distance came an angry call, and endless flames covered the sky. A Three-legged Golden Crow, with wings spread over ten meters in length, swiftly approached, its cold eyes filled with overwhelming murderous intent.

Feeling the horrific presence from the adult Three-legged Golden Crow, Lin Feng felt as if his whole body was frozen, unable to move; that Three-legged Golden Crow was far too terrifying.

Qiu Hanying was in even worse shape, her face pale, her body trembling uncontrollably.
