Chapter 305: Exchanging Divine Abilities

Chapter 305: Exchanging Divine Abilities

Such a monstrous Prodigy was enough to suppress Young Master Long Xiao, who was ranked in the top thirteen of the king ranking. Whether used as a sparring partner to test her current combat power...

...or recruited...

...keeping him by her side would bring far more benefits than harms.

Not to mention, Qin Xuan also possessed the most pure Nirvana Fire.

That was a trump card that even she, a proud daughter of the Phoenix Clan, did not possess!

Once Qin Xuan arrived by her side, Feng Yao casually set up a barrier and said directly, "Young Master Qin, since you possess the Legacy of a mighty expert of our Phoenix Clan, you can be considered half a member of our Phoenix Clan line. The Linglong Tower is about to open, and I am willing to go with you. I wonder what you think, Young Master?"

"The Linglong Tower?"

Qin Xuan curiously asked Luo Xianxian inside the small tower, "What is the Linglong Tower?"

Luo Xianxian was completely clueless and shook her head blankly. "I don't know.

The entire God Ruins is vast and boundless. Even this Desolate Region is tens or hundreds of times larger than the fragment we were on. It's impossible for our Celestial God Clan to know every piece of information thoroughly."

Indeed, her Celestial God Clan was somewhat famous in the Grandmist Continent.

But hadn't they been in decline for too long, causing their information to be outdated?

Not to mention, the one in front of Qin Xuan was Feng Yao of the Phoenix Clan.

Even during the Peak of her Celestial God Clan, they were still slightly inferior to the Phoenix Clan.

Instead, Leng Li frowned slightly and said slowly, "It should be the Legacy of a Lower Heavenly God."

"In the outside world, many experts watch like tigers. Those experts who want to leave behind legacies cannot stop those old monsters seeking opportunities for their juniors. Therefore, many experts leave their legacies here in the God Ruins. With the restrictions of the God Ruins, even those mighty figures cannot cross the various Great Domains to forcibly plunder them."

Qin Xuan muttered suspiciously, "You seem very familiar with the God Ruins? And you also have a clear understanding of the Grandmist Continent?"

This was clearly off!

One must know that back then, he had spent villain points to investigate Leng Li's background thoroughly.

Leng Li indeed had some connections with the Blood Asura Clan of the Grandmist Continent.

But it was only a slight connection; she had never had any experiences within the Blood Asura Clan.

She shouldn't have known this information, which did not belong to her current Realm.

Leng Li held her forehead, her brow tightly furrowed, and her crimson pupils filled with doubt. "I don't know either. After entering the God Ruins, fragments of memory gradually began to awaken in my mind. I'm not sure if it is a Legacy branded in the Bloodline of the Blood Asura Clan, or the memories of the styx purple ice crystal."

Qin Xuan stopped overthinking it.

The more information Leng Li had and the greater her background, the more it would benefit him without any harm.

He withdrew his thoughts, looked at Feng Yao, whose eyelashes were fiery red, and cupped his hands. "I am willing to go with you, Miss Feng Yao!"

A knowing smile played on the corner of Feng Yao's lips. "Before that, I am more curious about where Young Master Qin obtained the Phoenix Clan Legacy, and which Senior of my Phoenix Clan left it behind. To think it actually allowed the Young Master to comprehend such pure Nirvana Fire in such a short period of time?"

She didn't know Qin Xuan's past, but through deliberate contact, she had detected his bone age.

He was shockingly young.

In their Phoenix Clan, Qin Xuan's age would not even match that of a Phoenix egg!

At such an age, he had actually cultivated the Nirvana Fire to such a pure level.

This was not just a matter of having profound opportunities; he also possessed a terrifying talent that inspired awe.

"Is the Nirvana Fire not an innate Divine Ability that all members of the Phoenix Clan possess?"

Qin Xuan tilted his head, feeling somewhat uncertain.

After all, in his eyes, there was not much difference between the "True Dragon Precious Technique" and the "Phoenix Treasure Technique".

Not to mention, even the Holy Master of Yaochi, Saintess Yao Yao, also possessed the Nirvana Fire.

Feng Yao was not surprised either.

Qin Xuan seemed to have absolutely no background, and she hadn't even seen a shadow of a Dao Protector.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to know the secrets of her Phoenix Clan.

"The Nirvana Fire is a Divine Ability that only mighty figures of the Phoenix Clan possess. Even I have not fully mastered it, let alone being able to recover from injuries as freely as Young Master Qin."

Feng Yao emphasized, "Young Master, don't be fooled by how Young Master Long Xiao can heal his wounds during battle. In truth, he merely swallowed too many Spiritual Medicines beforehand, and the medicines accumulated in his body produced the healing effect."

"For someone like you, Young Master, who completely utilizes the Nirvana Fire and is fearless of injuries, among all the prodigies I know, even within the Phoenix Clan, there is absolutely not a single precedent."

Qin Xuan was shocked.

Was the Nirvana Fire really that awesome?

On second thought, it seemed very reasonable!

The True Dragon inside the Dragon Blood Secret Realm had been slain by the Great Emperor of the Ziyang Empire.

That True Dragon was at most in the Emperor Realm, which was the Sovereign Realm in the God Ruins.

And the "Phoenix Treasure Technique" he obtained was inside the Divine Beast Kunpeng.

When he first saw the Kunpeng, he only thought it was at the Peak of the Emperor Realm.

But as his strength grew and his horizons broadened...

The pressure brought upon him by the ten Peak Sovereign Realm experts of the Dragon Clan could not even compare to a single snort from the Kunpeng.

The Phoenix Clan, which could be on good terms with the Kunpeng, must be at least on par with the Kunpeng.

Its status within the Phoenix Clan was likely pivotal!

"Senior deliberately told me not to reveal her identity, so I'm afraid I cannot answer Miss Feng Yao's question."

Qin Xuan also couldn't figure out why that Phoenix Clan expert would be in the Endless Sea.

What if she was some kind of traitor who had a grudge against Feng Yao's lineage?

Revealing it would not be ideal.

"However..." Qin Xuan shifted the topic. "If Miss Feng Yao wishes to comprehend the essence of this Legacy, I can impart it to you truthfully."

There was nothing he could do. Just as he was planning to hide it, the Phoenix Clan Origin within his body showed an extraordinary sense of closeness toward Feng Yao.

It seemed to want to bestow a portion of this Legacy upon Feng Yao as well.

Presumably, that fallen Phoenix Clan expert had perished in the Endless Sea for some reason.

And had not had the time to leave the Legacy to the Phoenix Clan.

Now that it encountered Feng Yao, it was probably exceptionally affectionate toward a Prodigy of its own clan.

Such a grand existence was someone even Qin Xuan could not afford to offend for the time being.

Since the Phoenix Clan Origin was willing, he would go with the flow and make Feng Yao owe him a favor in the process.

Feng Yao's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. "Is what Young Master Qin said true?!"

One must know that this Nirvana Fire was a Divine Ability that could only be comprehended by mighty figures of her Phoenix Clan who had truly undergone Nirvana Rebirth.

Even her father did not possess it.

If Qin Xuan was unwilling, even she would not dare to go against the dying wish of a Phoenix Clan mighty figure.

Who would have thought that Qin Xuan would impart it just like that?

Wasn't this a bit too casual?!

"Of course it's true." Qin Xuan sighed. "It's just that my Cultivation over these years might end up being in vain. However, since I can pass Senior's Divine Ability to a Prodigy of the same clan, it can be considered fulfilling Senior's dying wish."

When making a sacrifice...

...one naturally had to exaggerate their sacrifice as much as possible.

Otherwise, Feng Yao might think he was just paying lip service without suffering any actual damage.

Although there was indeed no damage in reality, if he didn't say it, how would Feng Yao know whether he was injured or not?

Did his own body need to be assessed by others?

"Does Young Master Qin know of the 'Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation'?" Feng Yao's fiery-red eyelashes fluttered, and her beautiful eyes were filled with deep anticipation.

Seeing Qin Xuan shake his head, she immediately took action, pulling Qin Xuan to sit opposite her. Soon, a wave of scorching Pure Phoenix Flame enveloped both her and Qin Xuan in a sphere of light.

Following that, scorching information flooded into Qin Xuan's mind like rolling lava.

The "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" was not a tribulation for the Phoenix Clan, but a Divine Ability Secret Technique—it was a tribulation for the enemies of the Phoenix Clan.

Once one comprehended this Divine Ability and reached the Entry Level, they could enter a special state of Phoenix Nirvana for the duration of a single breath.

During this period, the user would be immortal and indestructible.

Within this single breath, even a True God would be unable to harm the user in the slightest!

As comprehension improved, the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" at the Minor Achievement stage could allow the user to maintain this duration for a full ten breaths.

The Major Achievement stage could last for thirty breaths!

"Hiss..."

Even Qin Xuan could not help but gasp when he realized the power of the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation".

This was a special state of being 'immortal and indestructible'!

If one cultivated the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" to Perfection, they would be immortal and indestructible for a full hundred breaths.

What kind of terrifying existence would that be?!

He would have no regard for injuries, while his enemies would be bombarded by his fearless attacks during this period.

If it were Young Master Long Xiao, he wouldn't even need to use any trump cards. As long as the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" was cultivated to Minor Achievement, it would be enough to smash him into mincemeat with pure fist power!

Pfft!

Suddenly, Feng Yao, who was in front of Qin Xuan, spat out a mouthful of heart's blood. She suffered a backlash and sustained significant injuries.

Her aura was somewhat weakened. She quickly took out a Medicinal Pill and swallowed it, then wiped the trace of blood from the corner of her lips. She looked helplessly at Qin Xuan and said, "This is already the limit of what I can do."

Qin Xuan looked at his panel:

【Host】: Qin Xuan

【Villain Points Balance】: 670,000 points

【Cultivation】: Saint King Realm Early Stage

【Physique】: Chaos Hongmeng Body

【Cultivation Techniques and Precious Techniques】: "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" (Entry Level), "True Dragon Precious Technique" (Perfection), "Phoenix Treasure Technique" (Perfection), "Dragon-Elephant Domain-Suppressing Scripture" (Peak), "Tianhuang True Solution" (Perfection)...

【Treasury】: ancient prison-suppressing tower (Emperor Weapon), heavenly desolation halberd (Emperor Weapon), saint-beating whip (Quasi-Sacred Artifact)...

【Daoist Companion】: Asura Clan Leng Li

【Pets】: Moo Moo (Earth Dragon), Alchemist Emperor

Looking at the obvious changes on the panel, Qin Xuan was shocked.

"I've already achieved minor success in this? Doesn't that mean I don't need to waste time comprehending it anymore, and can just use villain points to directly increase my comprehension progress?"

Qin Xuan connected with the System in his mind and urged, "System, how many villain points will it cost to Cultivate the 'Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation' to Minor Achievement?"

【"Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" cultivated to Minor Achievement requires 1,000,000 villain points. Cultivating from Minor Achievement to Major Achievement requires 2,000,000 villain points...】

"My villain points are still not enough!"

Qin Xuan shook his head helplessly, feeling short on cash.

He was already plotting how to hunt down the Child of Luck.

Just cultivating the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" to Minor Achievement would cost a million villain points, not to mention the subsequent two million, three million, and five million!

If he didn't slaughter a few more Children of Luck, it would indeed be difficult to make any major progress.

Someone like Long Chen has probably lived long enough anyway.

As for Qin Hao, he had been raised like a pig and was already quite fat.

Zhou Chen... forget it. No matter what, he was his Personal Disciple.

A person shouldn't do that, or at least, they shouldn't.

"Young Master Qin..." Feng Yao called out softly. Seeing Qin Xuan in a daze, she thought he was unsatisfied with the "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" they had exchanged, and said helplessly, "This is already the most precious Divine Ability I can offer at the moment."

Pfft!

As she spoke, the backlash struck again, and another trace of blood leaked from the corner of Feng Yao's mouth.

Qin Xuan, coming back to his senses, did not say directly that he was unsatisfied. He merely shook his head and said, "Miss Feng Yao, I already understand your kind intentions."

Having said that, he raised his hand and reached toward the top of Feng Yao's head.

The legacies regarding the "Phoenix Treasure Technique" along with his own insights from cultivating it flooded out frantically.

One must know that when he spent villain points to increase his Cultivation Technique progress, he would receive insights and comprehensions comparable to decades or even centuries of bitter Cultivation.

Otherwise, how could he possibly command it as easily as his own fingers?

At this moment, he transmitted the information and insights within the Legacy to Feng Yao.

Of course, to prevent them from becoming enemies in the future, he left behind one, two, three... Backdoors.

Information that originally could have been transmitted in less than ten breaths took him nearly a whole day and night.

The longer it took, the more it would seem like his contribution was significant enough.

Seeing that Feng Yao had risked backlash to raise his "Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation" to the Entry Level...

...he couldn't just do nothing either.

From the fist-sized Phoenix Origin, he pinched off a piece of Origin about the size of a booger.

He spent another full day and night helping Feng Yao's Nirvana Fire take another step forward.

On the third day, when Qin Xuan withdrew his palm...

Wah!

Qin Xuan spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Immediately following that was a second mouthful, a third... until his face was as deathly pale as gold foil, and he stumbled and collapsed to the ground.

He raised his hand weakly, coughing up blood as he looked at Feng Yao. "Miss Feng Yao, this is already the absolute limit of what I can do!"

"Young Master Qin!"

Feng Yao was horrified.

She looked at Qin Xuan, who appeared heavily injured, in disbelief, biting her lip in sheer astonishment.

She had never dreamed that Qin Xuan would actually help her comprehend the Nirvana Fire to the Minor Achievement stage!

One must know that she, who had only just reached the Entry Level, would have found it difficult to Cultivate it to the Minor Achievement stage even if she spent another hundred years.

Yet Qin Xuan had not only passed down the Legacy of a Phoenix Clan mighty figure to her, but had even shared his insights and comprehensions, and even split a portion of his Phoenix Clan Origin with her.

To the point where he brought upon himself an uncontrollable backlash!

"Let me heal your injuries."

Healing Qin Xuan was an inescapable responsibility for Feng Yao.

Qin Xuan, however, waved his hand. "No, men and women should maintain a proper distance. Miss Feng Yao is a proud daughter of the Phoenix Clan. My obtaining the Phoenix Clan Legacy is already owing a huge favor to the Phoenix Clan. How can I show disrespect to you now, Miss?"

What nonsense.

Heal what injuries?

The insights and Legacy he gave were merely equivalent to using his Divine Soul to convey some information. How could there be any injuries?

As for pinching off that booger-sized piece of Phoenix Clan Origin, it had already completely healed within half a day after he pinched it off.

His injuries had healed long ago, so what was there to heal?

He simply felt that since Feng Yao had spat out two mouthfuls of blood, if he didn't spit out a few mouthfuls himself, it would make Feng Yao feel like she got the short end of the stick.

Exchanging divine abilities was just like doing business.

Didn't one have to inflate the market price?

Feng Yao furrowed her brow tightly. After hesitating for a long time, she finally took out a Medicinal Pill. "This is my Phoenix Clan's nirvana pill. After consuming it, no matter what kind of injury, it will heal. Even if one is nearing the end of their lifespan, it can prolong life!"

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Qin Xuan was somewhat hesitant. Actually, he had planned to say that the Nirvana Fire could heal this Dao wound to his Origin.

But at this moment, a nirvana pill was right before his eyes.

Its grade looked to be several levels higher than even the Endless Blood Pill refined by Alchemist Emperor.

If he took it, wouldn't it be a bit like getting a bargain and still playing the victim?

Since Feng Yao insisted on giving it, he couldn't refuse to accept it.

Qin Xuan awkwardly reached out his hand and accepted the nirvana pill.
