Chapter 247: Absorbing the New Mystic Realm Trait! Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix!

Chapter 247: Absorbing the New Mystic Realm Trait! Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix!

Qin Xiaoxue, Ye Zhou, and DongMUXuan were all left dumbfounded.

Countless birds flocked towards the cave entrance, where the Yellow Dragon was, in a chaotic frenzy.

Clearly, something had happened, and the once bustling valley suddenly became empty, leaving them all bewildered.

But who among them was the most bewildered at this moment?

Su Ping had Da Huang's protection, and the birds couldn't get past the cave entrance, so his attention was focused behind him.

The shattered space revealed not a typical spatial vortex but a fiery red swirl.

The exposed spatial rift wasn't pitch-black; instead, it was an incredibly fiery vortex.

It was as if behind this spatial vortex lay a world of raging flames.

But that wasn't the strangest part; after all, the appearance of spatial vortices could vary depending on the mystic realm's characteristics.

What he didn't expect was that within this fiery vortex, something slowly floated out.

Yes, something had emerged from within the spatial vortex on its own! How was this possible?

Creatures within mystic realms couldn't leave by themselves; this was common knowledge.

Unless, of course, the spatial mystic realm was extremely unstable.

But judging by the fiery vortex, it didn't seem like that.

Su Ping was even more bewildered by what emerged.

It wasn't a living being; at least, to him, it didn't seem like one.

It was a flame, a crimson flame.

Vividly red.

Yet, it made Su Ping instinctively retreat, wanting to avoid it.

This wasn't just his reaction.

A solid rock wall appeared in front of Su Ping, blocking him from the flame.

Yes, even Da Huang had taken action at this moment.

Da Huang's sacred golden eyes, filled with caution and vigilance, stared at the fist-sized fiery flame.

It was as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

The flame crackled in the air, as if examining everything before it.

However, at this moment, even Little Crow seemed to sense something, and it cawed, trying to get close to the flame.

But Su Ping, quick as lightning, held it back.

He could feel the terrifying heat emanating from the flame's burning, capable of incinerating everything.

This heat was something only a Monarch-rank being could possess.

A mere touch would mean certain death.

This wasn't just some resource.

This flame was an incredibly unique creature!

A bizarre pet beast!

An elemental pet beast! A fire elemental pet beast!

For now, this seemed like the only possible explanation.

Little Crow seemed to struggle, but fortunately, the little one still had its wits about it. It didn't attack Su Ping, perhaps due to the consciousness of the Yellow Dragon that remained on him.

The flame didn't seem to mind, burning with terrifying heat as it slowly floated forward.

No one dared to stop it, and no one dared to try.

Even Da Huang didn't attempt to do so.

And as expected, the birds' ultimate goal was this flame.

The flame slowly floated out of the cave.

The birds rushed towards it.

And then...

A whoosh sounded as the flame shot upwards.

The crimson blaze instantly engulfed the first bird that came close.

"Caw..."

The mournful wails and seemingly joyful cheers echoed through the valley, creating a unique, reverberating harmony.

Su Ping shivered as he watched, not just him, but also Qin Xiaoxue and the others in the valley, who were stunned by the floating flame.

"Roar!"

Da Huang's voice rang out, and this time, its intention was clear.

Run!

What did it mean for an Imperial-level adult dragon to act this way? Su Ping dared not think about it, but he turned and looked at the vortex.

The fiery vortex didn't seem like any mystic realm at all.

Or perhaps, the so-called mystic realm was merely a vessel for this bizarre flame.

At this moment, the slightly rotating spatial vortex began to gradually shatter.

But then, Su Ping's 'Spatial Absorption' trait suddenly activated, and he wondered if there would be any additional gains within this bizarre and unknown spatial vortex.

Su Ping wasn't sure, but he decided to try.

The mystic realm was breaking apart, just like the Sword King Realm that had been forcibly crushed, and even faster than before.

Perhaps in about ten minutes, this mystic realm would completely disappear.

The situation outside might continue for some time, and if he didn't try now, he might never get another chance.

Su Ping clenched his teeth and said to the Zhang Jia Brothers, "Wait for me for a bit."

The Zhang Jia Brothers were on the verge of tears.

Outside the cave, as the bizarre flame floated out, the sky above was covered in fiery red.

Countless mournful bird cries echoed at that moment.

Su Ping took a quick step and arrived before the shattered fiery mystic realm.

He extended his hand, and in an instant, the familiar, intangible void of his mystic realm space directly penetrated this unknown, bizarre mystic realm.

The tentacles, at an unimaginable speed, began extracting the nutrients within.

In this fleeting moment, Su Ping felt his spiritual touch connecting not to a secret realm space, but to flames.

The terrifying and surging fire element energy source, like a volcanic eruption, instantly surged into Su Ping's Beast Space.

A crisp cracking sound echoed, and the edge of Su Ping's Beast Space directly shattered.

Fortunately, Xiao Qing had not come along and was training with the other Lin Wolves in the Wood Heart.

But at this moment, Su Ping also felt as if his soul was ignited by these flames.

An indescribable heat surged in this instant.

However, this pain was accompanied by joy.

Su Ping's spiritual origin and mental state did not improve.

The reason was that this so-called Flame Mystic Realm seemed not to have been left behind by a Beastmaster, and its composition had little correlation with psychic energy.

It was pure flame energy.

Therefore, Su Ping's Beast Space absorbed flame energy!

After his 'All Spirits Home' talent was enhanced, the ability to absorb space was activated for the first time.

And the object of this activation surprised even Su Ping.

What the heck is this thing? Su Ping himself didn't know.

He only knew that this time, he seemed to have hit the jackpot.

Because at this moment, his Beast Space gave him feedback.

【Spatial Absorption Mystic Realm, acquired partial Mystic Realm origin traits, forming a new space origin trait in the Beast Space: Flame Nurturing Domain.】

【Flame Nurturing Domain: Fire Element Resource Space Trait, the space undergoes local changes, transforming into Flame Land. On this land, Flame Fruits can grow over time and can be fed to any Fire Beast, serving as the purest special Fire resource.】

(Note 1: Can consume the Beastmaster's psychic energy to accelerate the formation speed and level of Flame Fruits.)



(Note 2: The maximum effect level of Flame Fruits does not exceed the Beastmaster's level.)



(Note 3: Flame Fruits can be stored for up to 10 days, after which the flames dissipate, and the effect gradually diminishes.)



A new space trait!

This was the first time Su Ping had acquired such a unique and valuable resource trait after absorbing so many space mystic realms.

It was worth the risk.

But Su Ping also knew this was as far as it would go.

The entire process took less than a minute.

Yet, in just one minute, the outside had turned into a sea of fiery red flames.

If it weren't for Da Huang still being there, Su Ping would have been roasted alive inside.

Thinking of this, Su Ping waved his hand to signal Zhao Jia Brothers and Da Huang, then directly hugged Da Huang's dragon head:

"Let's go!"

Zhao Jia Brothers were quick to react, grabbing Da Huang's tail and leaping down from the mountain wall.

...

"What's going on here?"

Dong Muxuan stared at the fiery red sky, completely dumbfounded.

Qin Xiaoxue and the other two were at the edge of the valley, witnessing the terrifying red glow that had almost engulfed the entire valley.

The little paper person was also by their side, its 2D eyes fixated on the scene before them.

What was going on? No one knew, but they were certain that Su Ping was still in the center of the flames.

"Don't worry, with an Imperial-level Dragon protecting him, Su Ping will be fine," Ye Zhou reassured the anxious Qin Xiaoxue.

The valley was now covered in flames.

Fortunately, it was winter, and the valley's unique formation meant that the branches and trees were not overly dense, preventing an uncontrollable wildfire from forming during this time.

However, what had happened inside remained the biggest question in their minds.

And this question could only be answered by those inside.

Unconsciously, they retreated again.

It was too hot.

The scorching temperature contrasted sharply with the winter cold.

And at that moment, amidst the flame-covered area, a brown-yellow spherical shadow swiftly flew out from the flames.

After seeing this figure, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Ping was protected by a rock-like energy shield, hugging Da Huang.

One of the Zhang Jia Brothers clung to a dragon leg and flew out of the crimson world.

Da Huang approached the three of them and slowly descended.

"Su Ping, are you okay?" Qin Xiaoxue asked anxiously.

"What's going on here?" Ye Zhou and Dong Muxuan asked.

Su Ping shook his head.

The Zhang Jia Brothers, who were standing nearby, explained what had happened in the cave.

"A flame flew out of the Mystic Realm, is that the flame?"

"Is this flame the culprit? Is it an Elemental Beast?"

"What are these wild birds doing? Isn't this suicide?"

Each of them had their own questions, all filled with astonishment and confusion about the scene unfolding before them.

Even Su Ping didn't know what was happening.

He took the mutated little crow from Zhang Jia's hand and held it in his own.

The little guy was also staring blankly at the scene.

In its eyes, there was a mix of longing and fear, or perhaps both.

Su Ping looked ahead.

At this moment, he felt an indescribable sense of terror.

What was that blossoming flame? That flame was like a lit candle, and those frenzied bird-like beasts seemed to fearlessly pursue the light, only to perish in the flames, like moths drawn to a flame.

Death didn't seem to be a big deal to them.

On the contrary, it seemed that being burned and ignited in the flames was more important than life itself.

But what could be more important than life?

Su Ping couldn't understand, nor could he imagine it.

But everything before him was happening right in front of his eyes.

The shrill screech reverberated in the firelight, and his burning eyes turned slightly red.

At this moment, no one spoke again, because they knew that they would have to go back and ask around to figure out what was going on.

So now, all they could do was record everything.

Finally, in this vast valley, it became a sea of fire.

Everyone stood in the distance, on the mountain, overlooking the situation.

After the shrill screech was completely engulfed by the flames, there was no more movement.

Only the flame that had already disappeared and the crackling sound of the burning sea of fire remained.

The previous corpses, the remaining pets, all the plants, and even the mountain rocks and soil were all engulfed by the flames.

The sea of fire seemed like it would never cease.

But when there were no more combustible materials, it eventually had to stop.

The flames finally stopped expanding.

In some places, the fire slowly began to recede and disappeared.

However, at this moment, everyone, including Su Ping, had their pupils suddenly constrict.

Because the sea of fire formed by that flame suddenly moved!

Yes, like a living creature, like the flame that had just flown out on its own, suddenly moved.

How unbelievable was this?

But it happened just like that.

In the center of the sea of fire, it was as if there was a mold that held up the sea of fire,

A flame-formed outline slowly rose into the air.

The countless flames quickly contracted and condensed.

With the flames that had formed at the beginning gathered together, they combined to form a body purely condensed from flames:

It was a bird!

Huge, a bird made of flames.

On the wings of flame, an extremely slender and noble head slowly condensed.

Then, under the covering of flames, a slender body, and several long tail feathers, scattered from the body,

Noble, majestic, elegant, and terrifying.

Any adjective was insufficient to describe this awe-inspiring pet.

If it could still be considered a pet.

Under such a massive body, the ignited flames contained the lives of countless birds and the blazing fire of burning all spirits.

And finally, on the head of this bird, the not-so-real head slowly opened its 'eyes'.

The flame eyes showed no signs of emotion, but Su Ping could feel that it seemed to have glanced at him and the others.

This was evident from the body of Da Huang beside him, which suddenly shivered.

Then, a strange voice came from the body of this huge bird.

Yes, it was a voice! Not a cry, but a voice with an unclear meaning.

This voice was hard to grasp, and Su Ping even felt that this voice was not in any language he knew.

Even with the spiritual communication talent, it was impossible to understand a bit.

But at this moment, Su Ping subconsciously made eye contact with Ye Zhou.

Almost simultaneously, they used their spiritual power to capture this voice.

As expected.

Ancient Snake Script!

The most ancient script that can be directly read by spiritual power.

Previously, Su Ping had seen this kind of ancient script in a notebook.

But writing and copying is one thing, and being able to read it out loud is another.

After all, copying can be done with spiritual power, but reading it out loud is different.

But at this time, neither of them had the leisure to think about how this bird made of flames could speak in this ancient snake script.

Only because, after capturing this sentence, or the meaning of this word, the two of them were already stunned in place.

This voice of the flame bird was very brief, and the meaning was also simple.

Translated into words that the two of them understood, there were only four simple words:

"Hundred Birds Paying Homage!"

This was, Hundred Birds Paying Homage?

Su Ping looked at the valley in bewilderment, watching the huge flame wings slowly flapping, already soaring into the sky.

Is this a phoenix?

However, if there are dragon pets, it seems not impossible for there to be a phoenix, right?

But, what's the deal with this phoenix? Su Ping didn't know, he didn't understand, and he had never even heard of a pet like a phoenix before. There were some subspecies pets that borrowed this name.

But Su Ping understood that those things were not the same as this one.

However, just as everyone was in this indescribably shocking moment, the flame phoenix that had just taken flight,

After letting out an incredibly crisp cry, something they didn't expect happened again.

This creature of a level that Su Ping couldn't imagine, after that cry, in the sky, suddenly shattered! Boom!

A loud noise, in the clear blue sky, a sea of clouds was shattered into nothingness.

Then, on the shattered body, countless flame meteors, streaked across the sky.

And the original flame phoenix, seemed to have completely disappeared.

It seemed like everything that had just happened was a dream.

But Su Ping knew that it wasn't a dream.

The burning sand and crystal, as well as the surrounding lacquered wild bird pets, all proved the authenticity of what had just happened.

Not to mention,

Even now, still echoing in Su Ping's ears, that four-word ancient snake script:

'Hundred Birds Paying Homage!'
