--- Chapter 31 ---
Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, Phoenix Clan.
Yu Long sat silently in the room and used [Kaiju Maker] to analyze Feng Baichuan's blood.
The bloodline of Phoenix is really impressive.
Even after 12 generations, the bloodlines still carry enough energy to aid its possessor. Well, also the curse.
Not only does it merge perfectly with the human body, but it also grants several good perks.
Increase in Life Force.
Ability to wield Phoenix's Flame, even if the bloodline is impure.
Strength's amplification.
And the best part is, Revive from ashes!No, unlike the Divine Phoenix Empire.
The Phoenix Clan can be considered the purest bloodline inheritor by numbers.
After all, their bloodline's dilution is slower than the Divine Phoenix Empire.
If they didn't have the curse, they could be a group of frightening people without a doubt.
Yu Long pulled out the Evil God's Fire Seed and clenched it with his hand, using its Law of Fire to break the 'restriction' or curse set by the Phoenix God's Spirit.
After a while, Feng Baichuan's blood on Yu Long's palm becomes redder and hotter. A flame combusted as a small image of the Phoenix soared and smacked him.
"..." Yu Long rubbed his cheek in disbelief.
"Fuck it, you want to do it in a hard way?"
"Then, I'll make it hard..."
Woby appeared and landed on Yu Long's lap. "Nyuu?" The slime bounced its head left and right.
Yu Long smiled, "Help me with this."
"Nyuu!" Woby nodded, absorbing Feng Baichuan's blood.
Yu Long also placed his hands inside Woby's body and used [Kaiju Maker] to break off any genetic codes.
...
Deep inside the Phoenix Clan, a tall building has existed for a long time. It was 'skillfully' made with white marbled stone and had a grand-looking metal door.
A pair of golden eyes appeared and stared into the distance.
"Someone broke the bloodline's restriction I placed..." A majestic yet smooth female voice echoed in the darkness.
"Wait, this familiar feeling of fire. N-Ni Xuan?!"
The golden eyes trembled, "How is that even possible?"
"Unfortunately, I can't leave this place as my other half will know about my existence."
...
At Feng Baichuan's house, Yu Long grinned foolishly and breathed heavily as if he just run a marathon.
"Haha, fuck you!" Yu Long pulled out crimson-colored blood from Woby's body. It releases extreme heat, but not enough to affect him physically.
Staring at the purified Phoenix's bloodline, Yu Long finally found a way to break the Phoenix's curse imprint.
After understanding its profound patterns and reverse-engineering the aspects, he discovered that the curse is a DNA defect within one's bloodline.
The Phoenix God probably used its power to alter the bloodline and seal it with something. And that something is an array!
'A Sealing Array, to be exact.'
Although the Sealing Array is complex to crack, Yu Long's [Thought Acceleration] allowed him to break it quickly.
Yu Long sighed in relief and stored Evil God's Fire Seed back into his inner world. As for the phoenix blood, he sealed it inside a jade bottle.
He could have absorbed it now, but Yu Long needs to find the difference between his version and the real ones.
"Phoenix Trials." Yu Long poked Woby's head with his fingers.
"Let's recover first. Using [Kaiju Maker] exhausts me physically and mentally."
Yu Long closed his eyes and meditated, practicing [Art of Violet Mist] since the Phoenix Clan is rich with Fire and Yang Energy.
He cultivated for two hours until someone knocked on the door of the room he currently used.
"Young Master, the Clan Head Feng is calling you." Hong Guan's voice comes from the other side.
"I'll be there in a second." Yu Long answered casually. He opened his eyes and let out a faint violet smoke.
As Yu Long walked out, Feng Baichuan, with some clan members, waited in the living room. They have a determined expression on their face.
"Yu Long, we have thought about it." Feng Baichuan was the first to talk.
"I'll open the Phoenix Ruin for you."
"As long as we could break the curse..." Someone added shortly after.
Yu Long smiled and replied, "Well, that was faster than I thought."
"We have suffered for too long..." Feng Baichuan shook his head helplessly. "I have twin children. They are only two years old."
"As a father, I want them to have a better future than I am."
"Witnessing the real world out there."
"Understandable." Yu Long nodded calmly.
"Then, who wants to break their Flame Imprint first?"
"W-Wait. You have found a way already?" Feng Baichuan and the Phoenix Clan's members were shocked.
"Yes. It was difficult but also fun." Yu Long flashed a grin at them.
"As expected of Big Brother Yu Long. Even the curse set by the Primordial Phoenix cannot stop him." Xia Qingyue lifted her nose proudly.
Why are you proud? You're not the one doing it. Lily and Hong Guan were slightly appalled by Xia Qingyue's second-hand pride.
"Then, I'll try it first." Someone stepped out. It was a middle-aged man with auburn-colored hair and thick eyebrows. He appeared younger than he should be.
"My name is Feng Yun. Nice to meet you, Esteemed Guest Yu."
"Aren't you afraid that I'd fail?" Yu Long commented on Feng Yun's willingness to enter an unknown territory.
Feng Yun laughed, "Haha, I'm over 89 already."
"Even if I die here, there aren't many regrets I had besides the sin of our ancestors."
"I've lived a good life."
"Well..." Yu Long admired Feng Yun's belief.
"Let's start then."
He placed his hand on Feng Yun's head, where the dark-red flame imprint is 'inherently' located, and used [Kaiju Maker].
Everyone watched in anticipation, seeing the flame imprint slowly change color to scarlet.
Gasps!
Feng Baichuan and members of the Phoenix Clan sucked a cold breath. Still, they are excited deep inside.
At the same time, Feng Yun groaned as he felt a surge of profound energy in his veins.
Feng Yun's 10th Level of Elementary Profound Realm erupted rapidly. He Entered 1st Level of the Nascent Profound Realm and stopped at the 7th Level of the True Profound Realm.
A fiery aura was released from Feng Yun's body, shocking his clan's members.
"This is..."
"Success!" Feng Yun clenched his fist solemnly. He had never felt so vigorous in his life.
However, it also feels weird.
Yu Long chuckled, "Congratulations on your breakthrough."
"Everyone must be confused by Senior Feng's rapid breakthrough."
"The answer to your confusion is piling up profound energy."
"Senior Feng has lived for nearly ninety years! His vitality constantly transformed into profound strength and piling up itself."
"It also means his foundation is firm..." Hong Guan's mouth parted in amazement. "Such a blessing in disguise."
Feng Yun glanced at Feng Baichuan emotionally, "Clan Leader, our clan finally. Finally, find its way!"
"Yes, Senior Feng..." Feng Baichuan holds his tears.
The clan members in the room covered their eyes and laughed in joy.
For a thousand years, they prayed.
And someone finally comes and saves them.
If this isn't the work of fate, then they don't know how to explain it anymore.
Yu Long was 'actually' amused by their happiness as this wasn't that much of a big deal for him. "Senior Feng, you might want to sit calmly there and adapt to your new cultivation base."
"You don't want to hurt someone by accident, right?"
"Okay." Feng Yun laughed and sat on the couch.
"Okay, stop crying. You guys are adults." Yu Long clapped his hand.
"Who's next?"
"Me!"
"No, me first!"
"I'm older than you two, so I'm next!"
Feng Baichuan stared at his clan members and felt thankful for Yu Long's help. The Phoenix Clan will forever remember him as their greatest benefactor.
'We might not be able to pay him back.' He thought while staring at the black-haired youth.
...
After breaking their flame imprint's restriction, Yu Long crashed to the ground and sighed, "So tiring."
"Are you okay?" Feng Baichuan and others were worried.
Yu Long reassured them, "I'm okay, just a little exhausted."
"There are more people in the clan that need my help."
Unknown to Yu Long, his action touched Feng Baichuan and others even more.
Such an admirable youth.
Even after getting exhausted this much, he still wants to help them.
Feng Baichuan and his clan members glanced at each other. They nodded as he replied, "You can rest and recover your strength first, Benefactor Yu."
"We can undo the curse slowly." He added calmly.
"Okay, then..." Yu Long was 'slightly' weirded by these adult men's concerned gazes.
I'm not swinging that way, dudes.
"Can I take a look at the Phoenix Trial, though?" He questioned while adjusting his breath.
"Like right now?" Feng Baichuan looks very worried.
"I mean... The quicker, the better." Yu Long returned, having Hong Guan carry him by the shoulder.
"Then, I'll lead you there." Feng Baichuan sighed in defeat. It would be better for Yu Long to take a rest first.
