Chapter 228 Red Phoenix
When Chu Zheng returned to the temporary camp in the hunting ground, most people in the tribe had already turned around and started boarding the Tianluan flying boat.

The people of Wangshan tribe had already boarded the flying boat, only Lie stayed in the camp, waiting for Chu Zheng to come back.

"The beast tide vanguard is not far from here. Return to the tribe to rest as soon as possible. There is still a tough battle to fight later."

Lie urged, and hurriedly took Chu Zheng onto the Tianluan flying boat.

A few days later, the Wan Alliance did not even have time to count the number of people in each tribe, and directly urged Tianluan to leave the hunting ground in a hurry.

On the flying boat, people from various tribes were mixed together, and all you could hear was the noisy sounds of people searching for their relatives, friends and fellow tribesmen. It was a complete chaos.

"This year's Beast Hunting Festival ended more than two months earlier than in previous years. It was too rushed."

Lie looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, frowning slightly, feeling a little uncertain: "I have never been so anxious before, I am afraid that there must be some uncontrollable accident with the wild beast."

Such a tense reaction shows how critical the current situation is.

Looking at the chaos in front of him, Chu Zheng also had some bad feelings. The Wan Clan Alliance was already the top force of the Dongyuan human race. The one who could make the Wan Clan so panicked was probably...

Before Chu Zheng could think more, the sky above him suddenly darkened, black clouds covered the sky, and the sun's divine light disappeared in an instant.

The next moment, the sky and the earth turned blood red, with sunset glowing in the sky.

A scorching heat came from above his head. Chu Zheng looked up and his expression suddenly changed. There was a burning cloud of fire in the sky.

Between the clouds, feathers that seemed to be made of fairy gold exuded an incomparably blazing aura of laws and reflected billions of rays of divine light.

This is a terrifying divine bird that is even larger than the entire Tianluan flying boat, with a wingspan of a thousand miles that stretches as far as the eye can see.

There was a gleam of light in Chu Zheng's eyes, and soon a message was transmitted.

[Red Slaughter (Eighth Level): Originated from the Red Phoenix Clan, he has reached the peak of his cultivation and has the blood of the Phoenix. He has the potential to grow to the ninth level, but is restricted by the laws of heaven and cannot break through.]

The red phoenix with the blood of the celestial phoenix would have long been a terrifying giant monster comparable to the Immortal King if it were not suppressed by the laws of heaven in the Dongyuan Realm.

"It's the Scarlet Phoenix King, let's go!"

Lie reached out and pulled Chu Zheng out, hiding him in the house, his expression unable to conceal his horror.

boom!
There was a loud bang, and the entire Tianluan flying boat tilted instantly. The huge shock force was hit, and even with Chu Zheng's current physical body, he felt the blood surge. Some cultivators with lower cultivation even vomited blood and their internal organs were injured.

Lie's breathing became a little rapid, confirming Chu Zheng's safety: "Is he okay?!"

"It's okay, Uncle Lie, do you know this ferocious bird?" Chu Zheng calmed his blood and felt the calamity energy beside him.

Fortunately, there was no major disturbance from the calamity. This incident had nothing to do with him and it was estimated that it would not be too dangerous.

"That is the beast king of the Red Phoenix clan. I saw it during the beast hunting celebration nearly two hundred years ago."

Lie's face was gloomy: "There is a deep blood feud between it and the Wan family. It has been waiting for an opportunity to strike. Now I'm afraid it is coming for the head of the Wan family."

There are quite a few divine feathers from the Red Phoenix clan on the Tianluan flying boat.

Chu Zheng tried to send out his divine sense to observe the situation outside. As soon as he sent out his divine sense, he saw a horrifying scene.

The giant claw wrapped with divine fire fell down like a collapsing mountain, pressing directly on Tianluan's neck, with murderous intent piercing his bones!
clang!
The sound of metal piercing through gold and splitting stone exploded, clanging and piercing. The Tianluan flying boat suddenly shook, and many of the feathers covering the side of its neck dispersed, falling from the sky like raindrops, splashing dust all over the sky.

A figure stepped into the air, holding a bone spear in his hand. The spear tassel was hung with red feathers and printed with various patterns. It was the head of the Wan family, Wan Qiong, a powerful person who had also reached the peak state.

Chu Zheng took a glance and was slightly shocked. The bone spear in Wanqiong's hand was an eighth-rank talisman weapon. It had not yet given birth to a true spirit, but a dragon soul was locked inside it, and its power was no less than that of an immortal treasure!

woo-

Suddenly, a dragon roar was heard from the top of the sky, and the bone spear flew across the sky, piercing out a blood-red spear light.

In an instant, the wind roared like thunder, and the spear body moved like a dragon, attacking Chi Lu's chest and abdomen, with the intention of breaking open his abdomen and digging out his heart.

Chi Lu did not delay at all. He flapped his wings and flew into the air, trying to avoid the sharp edge of the bone spear, but he was still a step too slow and a gap was cut on the side of his tail.

Blood gushed out like a spring, rushing down from the top of the sky and turning into a blood-red waterfall.

After a successful attack, Wan Qiong's expression remained as cold as ever, without any ripples. Blood surged beside him, and totems left his body one after another and flew into the air, with patterns of strange beasts, auspicious clouds and auspicious grasses all alike.

The totem left the body and instantly began to draw spiritual energy from the heaven and earth. It used talismans to transform into shape and patterns to transform into bones. With the nourishment of the spiritual energy from the heaven and earth, it gave birth to a real body of flesh and blood.

This is the ultimate magical use of the totem, turning the virtual into the real, using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to show the true power of the totem. It is a genuine great magical power.

The Tianluan flying boat did not stop for a moment, and instantly withdrew from the battlefield between Wanqiong and Chilu, heading towards the heartland of the human race.

Chu Zheng tried his best to look far away, only to see several huge black shadows appearing beside Chi Lu, all of them were beast kings who had reached the peak state.

The wild beasts that came this time were far more than just the king of the Red Phoenix clan. Instead, it was a deliberate ambush and they came specifically for Wanqiong.

The speed of the Tianluan flying boat was extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, Chu Zheng could no longer see the situation on the battlefield. He could only feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, which became more and more violent and continued to flow towards the battlefield.

On the flying boat, the major tribes began to clean up the mess. The two attacks from Chi Lu just now had left many warriors injured, some even dead, and needed to be dealt with urgently.

A large number of witches were deployed by the Wan family to treat the injured monks from various tribes.

Chu Zheng went out for a walk, listened to many discussions of the tribes, and gradually understood something.

The previous beast king of the Red Phoenix clan was killed by Wan Qiong himself, and his feathers became trophies. They are still tied to the bone spear and have become a red tassel.

The Scarlet Phoenix King had not appeared for a long time, and this time his attack was hasty and sudden. It was even possible that he came specifically for Wanqiong.

The leaders of the three major clans stay in the area all year round and rarely come to the wasteland. Even when hunting beasts, they rarely show up in person.

In the human territory, there are talisman soldiers, divine wizards at their side, and many trump cards and methods, which are extremely dangerous for the wild beasts.

It can be said that for the wild beasts, Wanqiong’s arrival in the wasteland is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After learning some of the inside story, Chu Zheng couldn't help but sigh. This time, Wan Qiong came here specifically for him.

He originally thought that this matter had little to do with him and was just a coincidence. Now it seems that, after all, this matter is still somewhat related to him.

Wan Qiong’s experience is probably not an isolated case. Yan Bi and Shan Xun may have also been ambushed.

Although this was not the first time, Chu Zheng still couldn't help feeling a little headache.

The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. No wonder most Qigong practitioners have a miserable fate and rarely have a good ending. Under such circumstances, it is too difficult to practice smoothly.

About half a day later, the Tianluan flying boat returned safely to the heartland of the human race, sending people from each tribe back one by one. The news from the hunting grounds was also quickly transmitted back. Wanqiong and the leaders of the other two clans all returned safely to their respective tribes with only minor injuries.

Chu Zheng heard some news from the outside world, and it seemed that the Tianling clan came to help, otherwise even the leaders of the three major clans would not be able to escape unscathed.

This time, the wild beasts dispatched a total of fourteen beast kings. This was an unprecedented and shocking event in previous beast hunting celebrations.

After returning to the tribe, less than half a month later, Wan came to visit again. It was Wan Xu who came alone and wanted to take Chu Zheng to the Wan tribe to discuss some things. This was Wan Qiong's idea.

If there had not been an ambush by the Beast King, perhaps Wan would have come to the door long ago.

Chu Zheng followed Wan Xu and left the Wangshan tribe. After a day's journey, they finally arrived at the core area of ​​the Wan family.

Many wild beasts can still be seen around here, but they have all been controlled by the spirit-controlling technique, just like the dark eagles of the Wangshan tribe that were previously tamed by humans.

There are more than ten core tribes of the Wan clan, scattered over an area of ​​millions of miles. The population of each tribe is no less than tens of millions.

The population of the Wan clan alone exceeds hundreds of millions.

This is just the Wan clan itself. If we add in the other big tribes, the population in one area would be at least hundreds of billions.

However, compared with the vast area, it is still sparsely populated. In some desolate places, you may not see a tribe in a million miles.

Chu Zheng followed Wan Xu into a tribe, going deeper and deeper into the tribe, and finally arrived in front of a palace.

After seeing the structure of the hall clearly, Chu Zheng couldn't help but take a breath and his expression changed slightly.

This entire hall is built with spiritual stones, and the quality is extremely high, basically between high-grade and top-grade spiritual stones.

The abundant spiritual energy has filled the air around the temple with spiritual mist. Chu Zheng glanced at the repair panel and saw that the number of daily repairs had risen to over a hundred.

Building a palace with top-grade spirit stones is something that is unthinkable in the Cang Yun Realm.

The spiritual energy in the Dongyuan Realm is extremely abundant, much stronger than that in the Cangyun Realm, and there are spiritual veins in many places.

Chu Zheng originally thought that these spiritual veins had not been discovered by anyone yet, and he would later gain a lot of benefits from them.

It now seems that the Wan family had already discovered the magical uses of the spirit stone.

Staying in this hall, the speed at which the totem absorbs spiritual energy autonomously will also become faster. This is a very intuitive change.

There were already several people standing in the hall, including the leaders of the three major clans that had been met before.

Wan Qiong's face was a little pale, and his blood and energy had been damaged a lot. Judging from the information sent from his spiritual eyes, his injuries were not serious, he just needed to recuperate for a while.

There didn't seem to be anything unusual about the expressions on Yan Bi and Shan Xun's faces, but from the information reflected in Chu Zhengling's eyes, their injuries were much more serious than Wan Qiong's, and they were just holding on.

Especially Yan Bi, he is already quite old, and this fight is like a push for him, bringing him a little closer to the end of his life.

"Let's get straight to the point. We want a new path of cultivation. If you have any conditions, you can just state them directly."

Yan Bi spoke first, and then he couldn't suppress a slight cough.

Upon hearing this, Chu Zheng frowned slightly, and heard the hidden meaning in the words, which seemed to be a direct reveal.

"About a thousand years ago, a person who looked very similar to you appeared in the Dongyuan Realm. He appeared out of nowhere, and whenever he made a move, the whole world was shocked. He was not from the Dongyuan Realm, and he called himself 'Seven Star Daoist Lord', also known as 'Xiao Hongdu'."

Shan Xun spoke softly, with a complicated look in his eyes: "You and him... must be from the same place."

Chu Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head and denied: "That's not the case, there are some differences."

The Taoist Qi-cultivators are scattered throughout the universe, basically in all realms, and he comes from the Immortal Alliance.

The golden elixir obtained before should belong to this person, but I don’t know if I will have the chance to meet him in the future.

"Whatever the relationship between you is, it has nothing to do with us. Now I just need a new way of cultivation."

Wan Qiong didn't care and said bluntly: "Now the wild beasts are powerful. If it weren't for the help of the Tianling Clan, the three of us would at least be seriously injured. We need a new practice method to improve our realm. Put forward your request."

"My name is 'Zhengchu Daojun'."

Chu Zheng's eyes were like fire, and he spoke in a deep voice: "I want all the tribes of the Dongyuan human race to build a golden statue of me, burn incense morning and evening, worship day and night, and enjoy blood sacrifices every ten years."

Now that it has been made clear, we might as well get it done in one go.

Judging from the previous Chi Lu's experience, the reason why Wan Qiong and others could not break through should be similar to this, that they were suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth.

A Qi cultivator who seizes his own life span will not be trapped by destiny at all. This is a path worth trying for Wan Qiong and others.

If the three major clans could really help him create a deity and promote the name of Zhengchu Daojun, Chu Zheng would not mind passing on the complete outline of the Great Zhoutian Qigong and the two volumes of the immortality method in the Wanshi Zhenjie Baolu to the Dongyuan human race.

After the three of them pondered for a while, Shan Xun asked softly, "What can you give us?"

"An opportunity to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth."

Chu Zheng didn't beat around the bush and threw out all his chips at once:

"In addition, I can teach you the complete weapon-casting method, alchemy, magic array, talismans, and the other two cultivation paths."

The other two paths of cultivation are naturally the immortal and martial arts paths. As for whether they are useful to the Dongyuan human race, that is another matter.

The method of left and right totems is compatible with the practice of Qi refining. This alone is enough to be worth a try.

Chu Zheng was not proficient in the art of alchemy, but the art of alchemy was covered in the Record of the True Tribulations of All Ages.

Although there are differences between medicinal herbs in different worlds, as long as they are medicinal herbs, they are inseparable from yin and yang.

The knowledge of distinguishing the yin and yang of elixirs, and the many alchemy techniques such as "containing the elixir", "melting the elixir", and "combining the elixir" are enough for the Dongyuan human race to pass on from generation to generation.

As for the recipe of the elixir, there will be people who will go back and study it. It is not something Chu Zheng needs to consider. All he wants now is the support of incense and vows.

Hearing this, the three clan leaders all stood up involuntarily.

Chu Zheng did not hesitate too much. He took out a piece of animal bone on the spot and began to carve bone text.

This is the complete outline of the Great Circulation of Qi. The subsequent method of returning to the void and merging with the Tao can only be discussed after he has truly received the power of incense and vows.
