He wasn’t defeated by his pitifully low potential or his non-existent combat power. These could all be enhanced. The key thing was the attribute. This was nothing more than a seed.
Good heavens!
An innate entity?!
At the very least, it had something to do with the concept of Innateness!
Clasping the seed of this tree in his hands, Feng Qmg’an’s heart surged with excitement and he struggled to calm down. He hadn’t forgotten that the first time he identified the Blazing Sun Flower, it was classified as a spiritual being. But on this occasion, the flower had transformed into a seed—a seed that could form a pact.
“Did a supreme being who had fallen in an era that’s beyond the reach of history prepare this seed for its own resurrection?”
Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but speculate. There was some basis for this speculation. However, the flower was the last gift from that being. Was it really prepared for resurrection?
In the Underworld, all the supreme ghost kings who required the Blazing Sun Flower treated it as a consumable. Unlike Feng Qing’an, they didn’t allow the spirit essence within the flower to coalesce by a fortunate combination of circumstances and eventually turn into a seed.
“Let’s wait until Dong Huang comes to find me, then ask her!”
Feng Qing’an made this decision. He did not immediately form a pact with this tree seed of unusual origin. There was no need to rush—the seed hadn’t even begun to germinate yet.
As for when Dong Huang would come, Feng Qing’an didn’t think he would need to wait too long. Even if the journey took some time, he was sure she would come.
On this matter, Feng Qing’an was extremely confident.
Feng Qing’an’s confidence was soon confirmed. It had only been two days when dusk began to fall and Feng Qing’an’s door was pushed open. A tall, slender figure lowered her head to enter. She didn’t make any further movements, her long phoenix-like eyes fixated on the Red Gold Light Cluster held in the young man’s hand.
“What is that?” Dong Huang asked. She had instantly recognized it because its spirit essence had not undergone any fundamental changes. However, it was still different— a kind of change she had never seen before.
“Blazing Sun Flower?” asked Feng Qing’an.
“Yes, it’s the flower you gave me a while ago!”
Feng Qing’an handed the seed to Dong Huang,
“Do you know what happened with this? Why did it turn into a tree seed?”
“A tree seed?” Dong Huang received the light cluster and examined it. She looked at Feng Qing’an with probing eyes, “How did you know it was a seed?” “Feeling!” Feng Qing’an answered naturally,
“It feels very similar to a seed!”
“What did you do?” Dong Huang stifled her impulse and set her own affairs aside.
“I didn’t do much, I just tried to guide spiritual Qi with my soul power. Unexpectedly, the Blazing Sun Flower swallowed up my soul power, eventually turning into what you are seeing now!”
“Soul power!” Dong Huang instantly caught onto the key point and identified the cause of the Blazing Sun Flower’s mutation. “Have you ever seen the Blazing Sun Flower transform into a seed?”
“Not only have I not seen it, I haven’t even heard of it!”
“Without seeds, how do Blazing Sun Flowers grow?”
“Blazing Sun Flowers are naturally occurring, growing in any area of the Underworld where Yin Qi is heavy. It can even suddenly grow in ghost cities, massacring the entire city in an instant!”
“So, there are no seeds?”
“No seeds!” Dong Huang affirmed. She cast a deep look at Feng Qing’an and suggested,
“However, since you say it is a seed, why not plant it and see what comes up?
“Alright, let’s give it a try!” Feng Qing’an didn’t refuse. In fact, he was curious to see what a seed formed by a flower would look like when it became a tree. “This flower originated from the Underworld. If you want to plant it, it should
be done in the Underworld!” Dong Huang suggested.
At this moment, a small phoenix, the size of a fist, flew over and landed on Dong Huang’s shoulder. It looked completely harmless, belying the terrifying momentum it emanated previously when fluttering its wings.
“Alright! Let me change my clothes first!” Feng Qing’an was about to change into the Dragon Robe. But looking at Dong Huang, his words to ask her to turn away hesitated and did not leave his mouth. Neither did he have any difficulties. He began to undress right in front of them.
“Ah, how embarrassing, Feng Qing’an, you really have no shame!” Dong Huang’s expression remained unchanged as she watched Feng Qing’an change into the Dragon Robe. However, the little phoenix on her shoulder started to grumble in a childish voice, which prompted Feng Qing’an to speed up his dressing.
However, as he looked up, he saw the little phoenix shielding its head with one wing, yet squeezing a gaze at him through the gap in the feathers. Its tiny eyes gleamed curiously, staring fixedly at him.
Feng Qing’an put on his dragon robe, his face expressionless.
The time these two beings have existed, even including the seemingly juvenile phoenix, far surpasses his entire family’s combined, let alone doubling it.
“You’re ready so soon, that was quick!”
A bit of disappointment could be heard in the little phoenix’s melodious, deep voice, as it was intensely curious about Feng Qing’an. Donghuang had visited him multiple times in a very short period, what was so captivating about him?
“Let’s go!”
Feng Qing’an ignored Youyou’s remarks, instead turning to Donghuang.
Instead of tearing space apart, he took Feng Qing’an into the Realm of Shadows in an instant.
Though Donghuang is among the most powerful of the Ghost Kings, even she must find the irregular fractures interspersed between the two realms to descend to the human world and enter the Realm of Shadows.
Despite the existence of these fractures, for a Ghost King to descend onto the human world, appropriate timing and location had to be chosen, and there were numerous other restrictions. The task was exceedingly difficult.
The reason that Donghuang could move with such ease between the human realm and the Realm of Shadows was due to her unique nature, though she had to constrain herself regardless.
At midnight, the tiny fractures between the human realm and the Realm of Shadows were expanded into a smooth and unobstructed portal. Feng Qing’an felt the cold Yin Wind from the Realm of Shadows, his youthful body began to grow taller and sturdier, his black hair fell, wrapped in Demon Qi.
“Half-monster?”
Youyou tilted her head, looking at Feng (ung’an with astonishment, as if she had discovered some earth-shattering secret. She flapped her wings and called to Donghuang,
“Donghuang, look! He’s a half-monster!”
“The power of the Ghost Wolf.”
Donghuang gave Feng Qing’an a glance, a look of interest surfaced on her face,
“It’s the Ghost Wolf’s power. So, that’s why you raised it!”
“I did borrow the power from Blackmountain, but that’s not the main reason. I raised it initially for its protective capabilities!”
Feng Qing’an, still a head shorter than Donghuang despite his grown body, responded. There was no need, nor a way to conceal such a thing.
“What a matchless Divine Power!”
Donghuang praised, her eyes revealing contemplation.
“Can you can also borrow this?”
Much to Youyou’s surprise, she hopped from Donghuang’s shoulder onto Feng
Qing•an, ru11Y aware tnat It was Gnost wolrs power, yet seemg It perrect1Y wielded by a human like Feng Qing’an made her even more curious.
“Can you borrow my power too?”
“No, I can’t!”
Feng Qing’an promptly replied.
“Why can’t you?”
The little phoenix exemplifying ‘being persistent till the end’, was being incredibly talkative,
“If you could wield my power, you would be as strong as me!”
“That’s exactly why I can’t. You’re too powerful!”
Feng Qing’an stepped into the Realm of Shadows, and beside him, the monarch of You Huang, glow flickered in her slender phoenix eyes.
Borrowing power, huh!
“Feng Qing’an!”
Nan Ge, who had practiced diligently under her sister’s provocation, felt Feng Qing’an’s presence and leapt out of the spring, happily running towards him, until she noticed her sister. She stopped abruptly, and the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
“Nan Ge, don’t come, you are too weak; while Feng Qing’an managed to transform the scorching sunflower into seed form, the power contained within has become even stronger. You won’t be able to handle it!”
The little phoenix watched Nan Ge, kindly reminding her. However,
Donghuang didn’t say a word to her sister, instead, she turned to Feng Qing’an,
“Let’s get going. You can choose the right spot to plant your tree.”
“Nan Ge, I’ll come find you later!”
Feng Qing’an followed Donghuang; the little phoenix had already flown off his shoulder, spreading her wings and revealing her gorgeous and terrifying true form.
Bang!
As the phoenix flew high, the only thing remaining was a determined girl on the ground, trying hard not to let her tears fall from her eyes.
I was here first!
Why?!
