1235 Primordial Phoenix's Contribution

After returning to his room with Xiao Hua and the others, Yuan asked Feng Yuxiang, "Can you tell me what you know about the Primordial Phoenix? After that, I'll tell you about what I know."

Feng Yuxiang nodded, "Although the Primordial Phoenix wasn't the first phoenix in existence, she somehow managed to surpass the First Phoenix's bloodline, which was thought to be impossible. She's also done a lot for the phoenix race, such as giving birth to many phoenixes with a superior bloodline."

"She gave birth?" Yuan couldn't help but stop her after hearing this information.

Feng Yuxiang chuckled and said, "Not literally. Just like how dragons can improve their bloodlines by absorbing a superior bloodline, the Primordial Phoenix shared her bloodline with many Phoenix families, hence giving birth. If it weren't for her, the Phoenix race wouldn't have as many royal families in this era and lack behind the dragons."ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"Due to her contributions, the Phoenix race flourished and became established as a top 3 global power in our world. Hence her importance to the phoenix race."

"I see…" Yuan mumbled as he digested the information.

"Now tell me about your experience with the Primordial Phoenix!" Feng Yuxiang urged.

With a serene smile, Yuan began to reminisce, retracing the memories he shared with the Primordial Phoenix, recounting their initial encounter and the extraordinary adventure that spanned well over a hundred thousand years, even though their deal had originally been set for just that duration.

When Yuan mentioned the Smoldered Phoenix Egg, Feng Yuxiang stopped him and exclaimed in shock, "A billion-year-old Smoldered Phoenix Egg?! That's insane!"

"Wait a moment... If it's a billion-year-old Smoldered Phoenix Egg, then it's possible—it might be the very reason the Primordial Phoenix managed to transcend the bloodline of the First Phoenix!" Feng Yuxiang had this realization.

"To think that the Young Master—your incarnation—played a pivotal role in our history. I dare say the phoenix race might find it hard to accept that a human was the catalyst for their flourishing,"

"I suppose we can't be certain that the Smoldered Phoenix Egg is the definitive cause behind the evolution of the Primordial Phoenix's bloodline," Yuan mused.

"No, it's almost certain that's the cause," Feng Yuxiang responded confidently. "A mere ten-thousand-year-old Smoldered Phoenix Egg would incite a war among the phoenix race in our present era. I can scarcely fathom the potency of a billion-year-old Smoldered Phoenix Egg. Nothing is more effective than the Smoldered Phoenix Egg when it comes to improving a phoenix's bloodline."

"Anyways, tell me more about the Primordial Phoenix herself! Did she have any hobbies? What did she like to eat? I want the personal details!"

Yuan nodded and continued to recall Dragon Goddess Yeyou's memories of Feng Yuming.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the palace, inside Xi Mingze and Xi Shengmo's room.

"How was your training with Yuan today?" Xi Shengmo asked her when she returned late at night.

"You won't believe me even if I told you." She shrugged.

"Try me."

She sighed deeply before speaking, "Not only did he achieve mastery over Dragon's Authority in just one day, but it appears that his 'Dragon's Authority' was an entirely different power altogether."

"Huh? What do you mean by a different power? It's not Dragon's Authority?" Xi Shengmo raised an eyebrow.

"No, it's not. In fact, it's even stronger than Dragon's Authority— incomparably stronger."

"What could possibly be stronger than Dragon's Authority?" Xi Shengmo frowned.

"I don't have a name for it, but if I were to give it one, it'd be Perfect Authority, as he has the ability to command not only dragons but other beasts as well."

"WHAT?!" Xi Shengmo exclaimed in astonishment upon learning about Immortal Monarch's Dominion for the first time.

"That's not possible! The heavens would not allow such a technique to exist!"

"Despite that, it exists. I watched him make a phoenix and a divine serpent do things that I'd rather die than do myself. And apparently, there used to be another man who had such an ability in ancient times. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information on him."

Xi Shengmo clasped his hands together as he tried to stop them from shaking.

"The power to command all creatures under the heavens... If other races were to discover this, Yuan would be in grave peril, hunted from all sides. Such an ability should never be allowed to exist," Xi Shengmo spoke with a somber tone.

"I already warned him about it, but I still cannot help but worry."

Xi Shengmo closed his eyes and sighed, "I'm more worried for our daughter, who will be following him."

"If you're thinking about—"

"Don't worry, I am not even thinking about it. She's already made her decision, and we made ours. No matter what happens from this point forth, it's the path that she chose to walk, and I will support it."

Back in Yuan's room, Xiao Hua suddenly asked him, "Brother Yuan, when do you plan on leaving this place?"

Yuan had a dumbfounded look on his face when he heard Xiao Hua's question.

"Now that you mention it… we've been here for a while. The Nameless Emperor's Tomb should have been sealed shut by now. I wonder whether we'll emerge within the tomb or find ourselves outside when we depart from this location."

"Anyways, I'll see if there's anything else for us to do here. If not, we'll make our way back."

The following day, Xi Meili knocked on Yuan's room again.

"Yuan, my parents would like to speak with you whenever you're free."

"I would also like to speak with them. Let's go now." Yuan said.

"Okay."

Sometime later, Xi Meili brought Yuan to her parents.

"Yuan, I scoured the entire library yesterday, but I couldn't uncover any additional information about the individual who might have possessed the same ability as yours. It simply mentioned the existence of such a person in ancient times and nothing more," Xi Mingze reported.

"I see… Thank you for trying anyway." Yuan said.
