it head-on, his long blade slicing through its body, splitting it in two. He surged forward between the severed halves, nearly face-to-face with the creature that spat bloody venom. With a single st...The ink-colored sky seemed to be so low it was about to collapse.

Upon the boundless, inky sea lay a gigantic black phoenix.

The waves rippled gently, unmoved.

Its body resembled a floating island, its soul extinguished.

It is still so beautiful, but it has been wilting for a long time.

"This..."

Jiang Wang and the other two looked at each other in surprise.

Zuo Guangshu even pressed his lips tightly together, speechless for a moment.

Along with Big Bro Jiang, we boldly entered the realm of mountains and seas with great ambitions.

After several perilous encounters, he successfully met with Qu Shunhua. He thought that what followed would be just as Jiang Gege said, sweeping across the Shan Hai realm and easily obtaining what they desired.

Turned around and ran into an ambush by monsters, losing contact with Brother Jiang.

Then Qiu Shunhua left the field.

Then, he was defeated in a single encounter by a stranger...

After a series of setbacks, I finally regained my confidence and traveled a long way to Beiji Tiangui Mountain. But Jiufeng was nowhere to be found, and Beiji Tiangui Mountain even cracked!

>

Embarking on the divine descent path, they arrived at Di'nan Abyss. Relying on Jiang Gege's humility and flattery, they gained Chaos' support.

Relying on the Withered Tower, in the malevolent Abyss of Withering, tread cautiously like walking on thin ice, searching for the Phoenix-like Black One, a spirit named Gaoxuan.

After traveling for three whole days, it was a difficult and tiring journey.

...Jia Xuan had already died for a long time.

The young master, just out of his gilded cage, deeply felt the malice of this world.

When it comes down to it, Big Brother Jiang is always there.

"Chaos said this nine phoenix is not the one you're looking for, the Phoenix Nine Classes is what you should seek. Since the feathers of the nine phoenixes can hint at the clues of the chapter of the nine phoenixes, wouldn't these Jia Xuan feathers be even more useful" Jiang Wang urged, "Go pluck a few and try it out, anyway, it can't refuse now."

Zuo Guang's eyes widened in sudden realization, his worry turning into joy. As people moved forward, one of them stretched out a hand and summoned a stream of water that surged towards Jia Xuan's enormous corpse.

This is like stirring up a hornet's nest!

A certain hidden tranquility was broken.

From within the mountain-like corpse of Jia Xuan, countless, uncountable monster souls suddenly surged forth. With fangs bared and claws outstretched, they gathered together, forming a massive black tide that roared out and charged straight towards Jiang Wang and his two companions!

Those alien souls, resembling bulls, tigers, pythons, and eagles, were each ferocious and fierce.

Jiang Wang forcefully pulled Left Guangshu back. The azure clouds beneath their feet exploded, and without hesitation, he turned his back and fled. His steps were graceful yet as swift as lightning.

Yue Tiannu, with hands clasped together, strode forward. She didn't appear to be in a hurry, but each step covered dozens of zhang.

Left Guangshu, reacting a beat too late, finally raised his hands. A massive water barrier surged up, blocking the three people behind it.

Perhaps it's more intuitive to see it this way, or maybe after being separated from the ocean surface, the seawater reveals its true nature.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But seeing this empty water flow barrier, there were countless struggling creatures, moving up and down, like worms or threads!

The water barrier was on the verge of collapse.

Left Guangshu moved the power of He Bo, with a right hand grasp, he completely annihilated them, briefly controlling these waters and restructuring the barrier.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

And in the next moment, he was struck by a tide of monstrous souls!

>

Fury raged, and a murderous intent chilled the air.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The black tide surged, like a behemoth traversing the dark sea, chasing after three tiny ants.

Jiang Wang spread a fire barrier behind him.

Even with the vast expanse of the Fire Realm, within this tide of darkness, it was merely like a skin disease, completely passed over in an instant.

In a moment of desperation, Yue Tiān'nǔ once again summoned the mechanical giant Mahoraga.

But seeing this venerable being, it leaped out, its two feet leaving the ground with a stomp. Its enormous body was already flying swiftly away. It chose a completely different direction from the three people, opening its mouth to chant in Sanskrit. Golden light emanated from its body, illuminating a hundred miles around.

For a moment, the entire dark sea surface boiled!

Countless evil thoughts are awakening, and immeasurable roars answer them.

Just as Jiang Wang said, he threw a spark into the hot oil.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

Including those demonic ghost beasts chasing behind, they all turned and pursued Mahoraga.

The third of the eight-part mechanical assembly summoned by Yue Tiannu also finally followed the path of the previous two, and it can be declared obsolete. Although it is still struggling at this time...

Three people flew away without looking back.

Yue Tiannu herself didn't seem to feel any heartache, or perhaps she was at peace like a Zen master, or maybe her family fortune was substantial, in any case, she wasn't moved by external things.

In the midst of the rapid flight, he still managed to sigh in admiration towards Jiang Wang: "This change is truly sudden. I was only able to escape in time by relying on the power of the Pure Land and realizing something was amiss. I didn't expect your reaction to be no worse than mine."

Lord Jiang remained unfazed, politely stating: "You flatter me."

"Shall we not go back to the Haishenbi" Zu Guangshu didn't need Jiang Wang to pull him this time, directly controlling water as he moved, and said, "Didn't you say there was a head and a tail..."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

I've already got all the Flowsandwood, why bother with the Sea God's Wall...

Jiang Wang's face was serious: "In times of crisis, one must adapt. Guangshu, people need to be flexible."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“I want to say,” Zu Guangshu said, “should we ask Chaos Why did Jia Xuan die What does this mean Chaos should know more about it.”

"Looking back, Jiang Wang said, "There's no going back. And as you know, the chaotic state is unstable."

Zuo Guangshu didn't insist either, only feeling a lingering fear as he said: "This Di Nan Yuan is too strange. There are so many weird things in the water, and I didn't even notice them!"

"Just a grudge worm. Filled with extreme resentment, it refuses to die and lingers in a place like Di Nang Yuan. Naturally, it transforms into a worm." Yue Tiannu said: "Buddha looks at a bowl of water and sees ten thousand eight thousand creatures. This is just one kind. Besides..."

"And we have to leave here as soon as possible!" Jiang Wang added, "This place is too dangerous."

"Yes," said Yue Tiannu.

A gust of wind brushed past, and the undercurrents seemed to recede.

Jia Xuan's massive corpse had long been discarded, its outline completely gone.

But that noble, beautiful, and mysterious powerful form is still clearly imprinted in my memory.

Its feathers are so beautiful, it lies lifeless on the sea, but its neck still has an elegant curve.

Its eyes seemed to be black

Though lacking its former luster, it still resembles a precious gem.

Oh, Phoenix!

Regardless of strength, status, history, heritage, or even symbolic meaning, it is a powerful presence that can rival the true dragon.

Why die alone and forgotten in the abyss of Diannan, your corpse floating on the dark sea, desecrated by countless monster spirits

Before meeting Ji Xuan, Jiang Wang still had some doubts about whether it was a true phoenix. He also questioned the nine types of phoenix mentioned by Chaos.

After seeing it, there was no more such thought.

It is proof in itself.

Even though it has already died.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The corpse of a phoenix, still dignified and beautiful.

Then, with the five recorded phoenixes in history, how did they become nine classes of phoenixes within the Shan Hai Jing

How did Jiaxuan achieve his greatness Why is he absent from any legends of the present world

Is it the legend of decay, the loss of history, or...

Besides, there are also Greenfinch, Mandarin Duck, and Rainbow...

The more Jiang Wang thought about it, the more he thought about it.

Heaven is tilting, nine candles flicker, chaos reigns. The moment King Changji spoke of, the time we've been waiting for...

And then there's the missing Jiufeng, Qiangliang, and Zhuyan.

Even including the time when he was in Beiji Tiangui Mountain, the existence of secretly infiltrating the Five Mansion Sea and seducing Baiyun's innocent daughter...

No sooner had the other party left than Bai Yuntong reported everything, leaving no word out.

That mysterious being also mentioned "timing".

What time

"Brother Jiang, don't be disheartened." As they flew rapidly, Zuo Guangshun suddenly said, "If we can't get the Jiufeng Chapter, it doesn't matter. I have many other options, and my path won't be limited by this setback."

Jiang Wang was startled: "Did I just sigh"

He quickly became alert!

Within the fifth inner palace, the crimson divine seed blazed with a radiant light. The undying red heart's glow surged out from the inner palace, illuminating the Five Palaces Sea and even reaching as far as the Star-Storing Sea and Heaven-Piercing Sea... bathing his entire soul in its brilliance.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Having attained such a level of cultivation, it was impossible for him not to recall whether he had sighed.

He wanted to find the root of the emotional change!

True heart divine ability, of course, is the best choice.

But under the illumination of the immortal radiance, within the Heavenly Palace, from a divine soul manifested in its physical form, a black worm was slowly being "squeezed" out.

It has seven legs of different lengths, which look very messy. It also has eight wings of different thicknesses, giving one a bad feeling.

Its entire body has seven mouths and eight tongues, buzzing together in a messy swarm.

The crimson glow of the true fire of Samadhi surged forth rapidly.

The strange insect fluttered its eight wings and vanished!

"Sigh…" Zuo Guangshu sighed, "How much further is it When will this Di Nang Yuan ever end"

Jiang Wang directly grabbed him with one hand and said urgently, "Let go of the soul!"

The divine soul manifested with a golden glow, directly descending into Zuo Guangshu's Tiangong Palace.

Left Guangshu though unaware of the reason, trusted Jiang Wang wholeheartedly.

Directly opening the Palace of Heavenly Ascension, the divine soul manifested its form before Jiang Wang: "What's wrong, Brother Jiang"

As soon as Jiang Wang's divine soul was bathed in golden light, the seven-legged, eight-winged monster that emerged from between his brows also flew out. With a single flap of its wings, it vanished just as quickly.

Jiang Wang's soul withdrew, and he along with Zuo Guangshu almost simultaneously looked at Yue Tiannu.

Yuet Tiannu's face was expressionless, and her eyes were very calm. "What happened"

"It's a gluttonous beast," Zuo Guangshu subconsciously thought, but then he abruptly stopped himself.

"I see." Yue Tiannu listened to the name and knew, with some vigilance, she said: "In a place like Diannan Abyss, it's very normal for this kind of thing to appear."

They understand each other implicitly.

Only Jiang Wangyi was oblivious: "Foodie Beast"

Zuo Guangshu said: "The Shan Hai Yi Shou (Classic of Mountains and Seas) records: There is a beast called 'black son' that feeds on malice, has a black body without a tail, is born from plagues, has seven legs and eight wings, seven mouths and eight tongues, and constantly sighs. It comes and goes without a trace, leaving those it encounters utterly despairing, unable to survive."

Jiang Wang frowned and said, "It seems Hei Zi has left."

Zuo Guangshu shook his head. "The Black Child won't leave. As long as it's focused on you, it will always be watching you, following you wherever you go, waiting for an opportunity to strike."

Jiang Wang was very surprised: "Even if you don't eat enough"

The Heavenly Slave bowed and said: "Your pain, your agitation, your anxiety, even the concern, the worry, the apprehension of others towards you... they are all its food. How could it ever be satiated"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This thing was truly terrifying, even Jiang Wang, who possessed a righteous heart and divine powers, nearly fell victim to it.

Zuo Guangxu, who clearly knew the origins of the beast, was also easily invaded.

Jiang Wang sighed, "Master Yue is still as immovable as Mount Sumeru, unperturbed by worldly affairs. I am not at his level."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yutian, the celestial slave, shook his head and said: "I am not a diamond that cannot be stained. It's just that it could not enter my pure land... I think its target was not me. In haste, shifting away wouldn't challenge my Zen mind, that's all."

Jiang Wang seemed lost in thought, her feet treading on a cloud of azure that shimmered faintly. Yet, she didn't slow down even for a step.

"Master, do you know of any way to deal with this nasty thing" Zu Guang-shu said, "It keeps following me, I really don't know when it will be subdued. If there is any easy method, even a temporary solution would help."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“This beast lives and dies, where could it be eradicated” Yue Tiannu said, “As for how to deal with it… Jiang Shizhu has already given the answer. Just continue forward. The foodie beast appears here precisely to make you stop, you stop and fight it, its purpose is achieved. You will gradually decline, slowly decay, and finally... become like it.”

“I understand!” Zu Guangshu said, “Don’t linger, and don’t speed up. Don’t change yourself for things like this. See it, but don’t mind it.”

"You understand, but not completely." Jiang Wang suddenly leaped forward. This step was a sudden change, like breaking through an invisible boundary.

The dim sky suddenly brightened.

Blue sky, turquoise sea, floating mountains, distant islands, and ethereal clouds.

Like a poetic scroll.

It's like walking from dusk till dawn.

After rushing all the way, he finally left Di Nan Yuan.

Jiang Wangdao: "You haven't thought it through, why would the food-seeking beast appear in Di'nan Abyss! And the answer to this lies beyond Di'nan Abyss."

"Why" Zuo Guangshuo stepped out right behind him.

Leaving the depths of the southern abyss, even the puppet body of Yue Tiannu seemed to relax considerably. She softly uttered a Buddhist prayer.

Jiang Wang looked at the young man beside him: "I'll answer you first, why you couldn't find the resentment worms in the water!"

Zuo Guangshu immediately remembered the unfinished "and" from Yue Tiannu's words. His mind was already filled with some guesses, but he still asked, "Why"

"Because Di'nan Abyss is the abode of the chaotic divine power, even with the powers of Hebo, you couldn't possibly compete with it for control of the waters. You wouldn't be able to get a single drop. Since it doesn't want you to discover the resentment worms, you naturally wouldn't be able to."

"You're saying...Chaos is the problem"

“We only seek the Nine Phoenix Chapter, and Chaos gave us only a clue. Since Jia Xuan is already dead, how could Chaos be fine This doesn't even require thought.”

Zuo Guang's handsome brows furrowed: "So that Zhu Jiuyin bullying the gods and Wei Nan being rebellious were all lies"

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. All I know is that Chaos has no good intentions, and that's enough." Jiang Wang said, taking out the withered tower wrapped in his clothes from his bosom. Across a layer of Dao Yuan and a layer of divine light, he didn't hesitate for a moment, turning around and throwing it back into Diannan Abyss.

Though the path ahead was clear, and there were no obstructions for anyone to walk through.

But this ghastly white spire seemed to smash into some tangible barrier, emitting a deafening boom.

It didn't bounce back into the abyss, but flew right back!

It swells in the wind, growing larger and higher.

In the blink of an eye, it had already reached a thousand meters high, and was still expanding!hengren said, "There is one thing that everyone may have overlooked at the time, or perhaps not paid too much attention to it. I myself was the same. That person broke into the Wangjiang City Daoist T...
