Chapter 642
“Hanyan, why are you here?”
Su Xing did not think he would run into Zhao Hanyan here at all .
“It seems the White Tiger Territory has a Divine Bird, so Hanyan came to take a look . ” Zhao Hanyan seemed to smile .
“It’s great that you’re here . I just happen to need your help facing the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian . ” The Star Riding Boat descended, and Su Xing sighed .
“You just need its feathers, you ought to be able to do that . ” Dong Junqing stroked her lips, her wickedly glancing at Su Xing’s body, a lewd expression that very much cherished a certain memory .
Zhao Hanyan’s brows twisted . She noticed that Su XIng’s expression was flustered . She had never seen him like this before, and she could not help but ask sternly: “Su Xing, what happened?”
“Xi Yue was struck by Han Bing’s power . She needs the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian’s soul to be cured . ” Su XIng summarized the events . Zhao Hanyan was shocked, flashing into the Star Riding Boat . As expected, she saw Xi Yue laying on the bed . The girl’s body was extremely cold, a mist surrounding her . She could not be approached at all . This kind of ice-cold feeling was beyond even the Thousand Year Black Ice .
“Then let us go right now . Little Sister’s injuries cannot be delayed . ” Zhao Hanyan asked Dong Junqing: “Junqing, how are your preparations?”
“No problems . This General has long wanted to test the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian . ” Dong Junqing had already mostly recovered from the Star Duel with Ye Futu . The Steadfast Star twirled the Dragon Phoenix Yin Yang Spears and nodded .
Su Xing then arranged their battle formation, having Hua Wanyue keep a distance and watch for chances . Su Xing, Zhao Hanyan, and Dong Junqing would take a frontal assault . Of course, Gongsun Huang would also watch for an opportunity to use her Earth Rank . Because this concerned Xi Yue’s life and death, they were extremely urgent . There was no tolerance for mishaps, nor was there any time to waste .
Stepping onto Clinging Bird Hill, the temperature immediately skyrocketed, instantly making them drip with sweat .
These temperatures were far from normal . Even while using Star Energy, they were unable to dispel it . These flames came from the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian and the Phoenix Tree’s natural fire . It pervaded the internal organs, capable of making any cultivator feel suffering .
“This place is unexpectedly so hot . ” Dong Junqing was very uncomfortable . She seemed to be on fire from head to toe, but this was not lust .
Zhao Hanyan felt smothered, loathe to even open her mouth .
Before they could even see the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian, to feel such broiling heat, this made ZHao Hanyan have a feeling of foreboding .
“Hanyan, Junqing, take these . ” Su Xing handed already prepared Ice Souls to the two girls . The moment ZHao Hanyan received this Ice Soul, she immediately felt the chills coming from her hand, greatly abating the temperature .
“Lianxin forged these . Take these two Ice Heart Pills as well . ” Su XIng said .
“Hee, hee . You always have so many goodies, but what about you?” Dong Junqing said .
“I have the Meditative Mind Lotus Flower for protection . This little trial means nothing to me . ” Su Xing had undergone every kind of serious trial . This temperature naturally could also be endured . “I saw that your energy wasn’t too good before, was there a battle? You must have suffered, Junqing . You’d better be careful this time, don’t force yourself . ” Su Xing gently warned .
To be frank, Dong Junqing’s heart had never felt this kind of sweetness . Indeed, it was somewhat gratifying . “Your words are simply insulting This General . However, seeing as you are concerned with This General, never mind . ”
“Fine . In short, do not be careless, Junqing . ” Zhao Hanyan also put away her heedless attitude . After all, they were facing the legendary Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian . Her heart was somewhat anxious, her palms full of sweat .
Su Xing’s Divine Intent moved .
A yellow book appeared .
An absolutely beautiful woman clad in a yellow gown suddenly appeared out of thin air . This woman’s long sleeves wafted yellow qi, dispersing like smoke, forming a barrier . She was none other than the Empress Tu Earth Book .
Seeing that Su Xing was scheming so meticulously out of fear that something would happen to them, Zhao Hanyan knowingly smiled .
“Little Huang, I’ll leave this to you . ” Su Xing said .
The Gongsun Huang sitting on his shoulder nodded . She held the Pinebrand Ancient Sword and pointed it at the distant tree . Several rays of Star Magic were then released . The enormous Phoenix Tree that covered the sky rumbled . The treetop shook, and those fire-red leaves trembled, immediately burning with tumultuous flames . These flames viciously blew in every direction, and a rolling heatwave burst out .
Empress Tu raised her sleeve, raising a barrier that dispelled the heatwave . Everywhere else was washed apart . That scorching heat smothered a range of ten li .
Immediately afterwards, a clear phoenix cry reached the sky .
The Phoenix Tree seemed to come to life . A giant Divine Bird burst out from the canopy, suddenly revealing itself to everyone .
And what a beautiful Divine Bird it was .
Its figure was graceful, perfectly outlined, with feathers like jade, sparkling and translucent . Its wings were like flames, bright and burning . Seemingly right behind it was majesty that outshone everything in the world . A pair of dazzling, gem-like eyes glinted . Its body that was as streamlined as a feather hovered like a cloud . What was most breathtaking was the tail plumage of the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian . It had the markings of fire, thin as a cicada’s wing .
“What a beautiful bird . ” Zhao Hanyan had a sort of reluctance to slay it .
Even the most skilled painter in the world could not do this bird’s beauty the slightest bit of justice .
Although they were awestruck by the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian, the bird itself had no such thoughts . She saw a group of cultivators, just like every other suicidally ignorant cultivator that attempted to disturb her . These cultivators were very powerful, but the Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian still did not hesitate to unleash its attack .
The Clinging Heaven Vermilion Jian’s pupils glinted, and it spat out a ray of scarlet light .
