Chapter 91 Yuan Feng's Perception, Southern Flame Banner
Leaving Mount Sumeru shrouded in mystery and silence, Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun rode their escape light southwards. As they ventured deeper into the southern region, their surroundings began to change significantly.
The moisture in the air gradually thinned, replaced by a scorching and dry atmosphere. The earth was no longer as sharp and serene as in the West, nor as warm and fertile as in the East, but instead presented a crimson, ochre hue.
The mountain outlines distorted slightly in the rising heat. The fire-attribute spiritual energy permeating the world grew increasingly active.
Abundant, even with a hint of violence.
This is the unique landscape surrounding the Southern Undying Volcano, the place where the Great Dao of Fire is most concentrated in this world.
The closer they got to the core area of the Undying Volcano, the more frequently the Phoenix Clan members appeared in the air and among the mountains and forests. These winged creatures were either magnificent in color, with faint spiritual flames of various colors swirling around them; or they were agile, creating scorching air currents as they flew.
Most of them possessed extraordinary auras, clearly benefiting from the nourishment of this blessed land of fire spirits and the rule of the primordial phoenix.
Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun's purpose in this trip was to travel and gain enlightenment, not to seek trouble, so they did not deliberately conceal their vast and powerful aura. One was a beginner in the Hunyuan realm, his Daoist charm as restrained as the deep abyss; the other was at the peak of the Daluo realm, his aura of the Four Symbols returning to their origin already manifesting.
The two auras intertwined, and although not aggressive, the natural pressure they exuded was enough to instill awe in the sensitive Phoenix Clan members, making them dare not approach or provoke them easily.
Therefore, although countless curious or wary eyes were cast upon them from the shadows along the way, no tactless phoenix clan members came to stop or question them.
However, just as Zhen Yuanzi drew ever closer to the silhouette of the massive mountain, faintly visible on the horizon and radiating a crimson glow, the central apricot-yellow flag, which he had been nurturing deep within his primordial spirit, suddenly moved on its own...
A slight tremor began!
This tremor was neither a warning nor a sign of hostility, but rather a peculiar resonance, a natural attraction and call when encountering a treasure of the same origin but different attributes. The essence of the Earth element flowing on the flag accelerated slightly, and streaks of ethereal, yellow and black jade pendants swayed gently in Zhen Yuanzi's sea of consciousness.
Zhen Yuanzi's mind stirred slightly, and he instantly understood: "The Five Primordial Banners originate from the same source, belong to the Five Elements, and are interconnected. The Apricot Yellow Banner belongs to the Central Earth element, and its current movement—that's it! The Southern Fire Banner! This banner belongs to the Southern Fire element, perfectly matching the Fire element of this place. It is indeed in the hands of the Phoenix Clan!"
His gaze was deep as he looked toward the direction of the Undying Volcano, and he understood. This Flame Banner was one of the Five Primordial Banners, and its power was boundless. If they could be gathered together and a Five Primordial Elements Grand Array was set up, its power would be enough to shake the universe.
This journey was originally intended to search for other treasure flags, but unexpectedly, I experienced a connection with them here.
Meanwhile, deep within the immortal volcano, inside a magnificent palace built of millennia-old fire jade, with flowing, lava-like crimson gold patterns.
A woman adorned in a rainbow-colored robe, possessing unparalleled beauty and an air of noble majesty, sat in meditation, comprehending the origins of the Great Dao of Fire. She naturally exuded the regal aura of a ruler who commanded all birds; she was none other than Yuan Feng, the queen of the birds and the emperor of the Phoenix Clan.
Suddenly, her phoenix eyes, which seemed to contain endless flames, opened slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across them. Just now, a member of her clan had reported that two extremely powerful auras were approaching the core area of the Undying Volcano without any concealment.
One aura was blazing and powerful, containing the elements of creation and destruction of earth, water, fire, and wind. The other aura, however, was as heavy as the earth and as deep as chaos; even with her cultivation level and eyesight, she could not fathom its depth!
"It's him—Zhen Yuanzi!" Yuan Feng immediately recognized the owner of this aura. In recent years, she had also heard rumors about this powerful figure who preached in the West and whose merits were bestowed by heaven.
She never expected that Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation had advanced to such a level!
Yuan Feng's eyes flickered slightly, her mind racing. "This Zhen Yuanzi preaches the West, and he actually gains so much Heavenly Dao merit? Could the power of merit really have such a miraculous effect on improving cultivation?"
A sense of shock and doubt rose in her heart. In fact, Yuan Feng's guess was only half right. Zhen Yuanzi's progress in cultivation was indeed related to merit, but the core was the accumulation of his own background, his arduous cultivation, and a series of great opportunities.
"Regardless, these two have come together with peaceful auras, which is not a sign of provocation." As a top power in the prehistoric world and a king of a clan, Yuan Feng naturally possessed his composure and decisiveness.
With a thought, a divine thought containing the will of an unparalleled emperor instantly spread throughout the core area of the Undying Volcano, and was also clearly transmitted to the minds of Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun: "Honored guests have come from afar, I am sorry for not welcoming you properly. Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, Fellow Daoist Hongyun, now that you have arrived at the Undying Volcano, why not come inside for a chat? Yuanfeng is waiting here."
Upon hearing this, Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi and smiled, "Brother Daoist, it seems that this Fellow Daoist Yuanfeng is a reasonable person. We haven't even knocked on the door yet, and the host has already extended an invitation."
Zhen Yuanzi remained calm, unsurprised that Yuan Feng had sensed their arrival and extended the invitation. He nodded slightly: "Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng, your command of the Phoenix Clan is certainly exceptional. Since we have been invited, let us go and meet you."
He was also pondering that the Southern Flame Banner was in the hands of the Phoenix Clan, and perhaps this meeting could be an opportunity.
Without further hesitation, the two slightly reduced their escape light, but did not slow down. They transformed into two streams of light, one dark yellow and one crimson, and headed straight for the direction from the depths of the Undying Volcano, where the Yuan Feng Divine Thought had come from.
The massive mountain of the immortal volcano became increasingly clear before their eyes. It was not a dead volcano, but an active volcano that eternally burned with inextinguishable divine flames, the ultimate gathering place of the fire elemental veins of the south.
On the mountain, countless magnificent palaces are built against the mountain, hidden in the swirling flames and rosy light, and countless powerful phoenix auras rise and fall within them.
Having traversed the scorching spiritual mist and countless hidden flame restrictions surrounding the Undying Volcano, Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun, led by a Phoenix Clan elder with a calm demeanor and magnificent wings, arrived at the core of the palace where Yuan Feng resided.
This palace was not made of earthly gold and jade, but was constructed entirely of "Eternal Flame Crystal" and "Seven-Colored Fire Agate" mined from the depths of the earth. The palace's interior has a high and spacious dome, engraved with the divine patterns of the Flame Dao inherited by the Phoenix Clan.
Countless tiny innate fire essences danced and flickered in the void like sprites, illuminating the entire space with shimmering light, yet without appearing scorching or oppressive. Instead, they were filled with a sacred, magnificent, and restrained rhythm.
The air was filled with the purest innate fire elemental energy, and with each breath, it seemed to trigger a slight resonance with the fire elemental laws within the body.
At the end of the palace stood a crimson-gold throne shaped like a phoenix spreading its wings.
