AST 2088 - The Powerful Dark Phoenix (1/2)

Although there were only a few differences in the Dark Phoenix’s outward appearance, its strength had undergone a heaven-shattering evolution. It had gained insights into the Ice Crystal Phoenix’s abilities, and its own abilities had been greatly improved.

Hellfire Phoenix, Bloodline purity: 70%!

Qing Shui was slightly moved, as the Hellfire Phoenix’s bloodline was already pure, and now it actually jumped to 70 percent. He wasn’t sure what the distinction meant, but it was definitely a great improvement from the previous purity grade.

The Hellfire Phoenix’s strength had already reached 5 billion Daos.

Qing Shui immediately inspected the changes in the abilities.

Dark Phoenix of the Nine Heavens, passive ability, zero consumption: Permanently increased strength by 500 times. All skills and attacks consumption reduced by 80%.

It no longer increased base strength but only its comprehensive power and battle skills. Still, this was largely irrelevant as the comprehensive increase in battle power was satisfactory.

Superior Flight: The Hellfire Phoenix’s flight speed is increased by a hundredfold.Consumption also decreased by a hundredfold.

This remained unchanged. With its current strength, the Dark Phoenix should be comparable to Xiaolin, even exceeding it in flight speed.

Hell’s Inferno: The Hellfire Phoenix fires off a powerful flame attack, its black flames smoldering everything. With a destructive property, its power was equivalent to double of its strength.

This battle skill had changed, seemingly for the better as it could now fire off a ten billion Dao Hell’s Inferno.

Phoenix Dance of the Nine Heavens: Passive skill, permanently increased flame damage while damage taken is reduced to half. Zero consumption!

Underworld Fireball: Unleash a fireball attack, containing a terrifying explosive power. When the fireball explodes, it would carry the power of double its strength. While used on a single target with a mental lock, it could continually unleash fireballs within a timeframe.

Phoenix Paradise: Upon receiving fatal damage, the Hellfire Phoenix had a 30% chance of rebirth, allowing it to undergo Nirvana and double its strength.

Phoenix Heart: The powerful Phoenix Heart allowed its overall prowess to be increased with the damage it took and consumption to be reduced by half. Zero consumption, passive skill.

Phoenix Might: A suppression toward all bird-type demonic beasts other than other phoenixes, suppressing them to a tenth of their strength, making them lose their will to fight. Suppression towards other species was not as absolute. Zero consumption, passive skill!

The Dark phoenix’s strength had undergone a massive change, its battle skills had also been fundamentally shifted, but the overall result was still very satisfying for Qing Shui. Harmonizing with the Ice Crystal Phoenix’s strength, it could now control and even attack effectively, becoming the strongest attacker on Qing Shui’s side.

Of course, the Dragon Slaying Beast’s attack could not be measured normally as even now, it was still effective with the Dragon Spider, the Dark Phoenix, as well as his own control, allowing the Dragon Slaying Beast to put its slaughtering abilities on display.

Xiaolin also had good input, as Qing Shui himself was slightly weak. The Paragon Strike was only comparable to a casual strike from Xiaolin and the Dark Phoenix while consecutive strikes would be far weaker. The Nine Continents Mountain was helpful, allowing him to have an attacking strength of five times his usual, not at all weaker than the Paragon Strike.

The Nine Continents Mountain was a true treasure at its seventh stage. Its potency was unsurprising, and it would be more surprising if it wasn’t helpful.

However, some cards were better left hidden. It was the main reason Qing Shui didn’t use the Nine Continents Mountain in the brawl against the Demon Kings. Other than the Emperor’s Qi and other methods, the Dragon Spider and the Nine Continents Mountain were part of his killer moves. The combination of the Dragon Slaying Beast and the Dragon Spider was also lethal.
