The azure sky, cloudless and clear, resembled a giant blue mirror.
"Screech!"
A crane's cry suddenly pierced the silent sky, followed by a seven-colored shadow streaking across the distance, whipping up a gust of wind as it swept through the air.
As it drew closer, it became clear that the colorful figure was a giant crane, entirely seven-colored, and on its broad back sat three figures: Mo Tang, Feng Qing'er, and Huang Xuan's group.
Since Mo Tang broke through to the four-star Dou Zun level and was found by Huang Xuan and Feng Qing'er, the three had been heading towards the Beast Domain.
Their target this time was the Heavenly Phoenix Space, where the Heavenly Phoenix Clan resided…
Although it was uncertain whether Ying Yi's disappearance was related to Mo Tang, Huang Xuan ultimately decided to take Mo Tang back to the clan, leaving everything to the clan leader's decision.
Moreover
, the bloodline power displayed by the other party, far exceeding that of ordinary clansmen, both shocked and puzzled Huang Xuan.
He found it hard to imagine why a half-blood clansman who had been stranded in the human realm since childhood would possess such terrifying bloodline power!
As for Mo Tang, if he wanted to utilize the power of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, then this trip to the Beast Realm was absolutely necessary.
Furthermore, with the improvement of his own bloodline power, Mo Tang's confidence grew even stronger.
With his current bloodline level and potential, even the heir of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan probably couldn't compare, right?
Under such circumstances, Mo Tang didn't think the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan would choose to abandon him.
Of course, the premise was that he didn't expose the fact that he killed Ying Yi...
But now that Ying Yi had been completely digested and turned into his energy, it was impossible for him to leave any trace in this world, so Mo Tang wasn't worried about being exposed.
"Junior brother, we're about to enter the Beast Domain...
This Beast Domain gathers nearly seventy percent of the magical beast families on the Dou Qi Continent. It's the world of magical beasts, including the three major clans of the magical beast world: the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, the Nine Netherworld Python, and the Primordial Void Dragon..."
On the back of the Seven-Colored Spirit Crane, Feng Qing'er introduced some basic information about the Beast Domain to Mo Tang as they traveled.
As her junior brother's strength grew, Feng Qing'er suddenly realized that she might have another powerful backer in the future...
As long as Mo Tang could catch the eye of the higher-ups in the clan, she, Feng Qing'er, would no longer have to suffer scorn because of her bloodline.
"...In the Beast Domain, the clan with the most subordinate groups is the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. Their numbers are the largest among the three major clans. Of course, the consequence of exchanging numbers is that the bloodline of the Nine Netherworld Pythons is becoming increasingly impure..."
As she said this, Feng Qing'er's voice gradually lowered, and she even stole a glance at Mo Tang.
Seeing that the other party was listening with great interest, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "As one of the three top families of magical beasts, our Heavenly Phoenix Clan naturally has many races choosing to attach themselves to us. The stronger ones, like the Silver Wolf Clan, Earth Tiger Clan, and Golden Roc Clan, are powerful races comparable to the Four Directions Pavilion or even the Three Valleys..."
Through Feng Qing'er's introduction, Mo Tang gained a deeper understanding of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's strength. This vast existence, inherited from ancient times, was truly unimaginable to many!
In fact, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was no different from the existing eight ancient clans; they were all once at the pinnacle of this continent. Although the great changes of ten thousand years ago had wiped out the truly top-tier powerhouses, their descendants remained the strongest group on this continent.
...
...
Looking at the endless, layered mountains below, Mo Tang knew they had arrived at the Beast Domain.
Although the Beast Domain's area was not comparable to the Central Continent, it was still not to be underestimated.
The Beast Realm is known as the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but this is only a rough estimate. If you really want to calculate it, the actual number is definitely far greater than that.
These mountain ranges stretch to remote places inaccessible to humankind. Throughout the ancient history of the Dou Qi Continent, countless treasures have been left within these endless mountains, waiting for a destined person to unlock them one by one…
Sensing the soaring aura and rich spiritual energy emanating from the mountains below, Mo Tang was certain that countless rare treasures lay hidden beneath.
Of course, among these treasures, powerful magical beasts must also be present… Within these
endless mountains, no one could say for sure whether a behemoth even more terrifying than the Heavenly Phoenix lurked. Therefore, although he was very envious, Mo Tang would not recklessly risk his life.
The Heavenly Phoenix Clan was located in the northwest of the Beast Domain, where it was said there was a Heavenly Phoenix Space that had been passed down from ancient times…
The three of them, riding on a giant crane, flew for almost a month before finally arriving at the foot of a colossal peak that reached the sky.
Mo Tang saw Huang Xuan take out a foot-long golden feather, then squeeze a drop of blood from her fingertip onto the feather…
In an instant, golden light shone brightly.
Ripples began to spread across the space in front of Mo Tang and the other two, eventually revealing a massive portal…
"Alright, let's go in," Huang Xuan said, stepping inside first.
Mo Tang and Feng Qing'er quickly followed.
With each step, Mo Tang felt the world shift instantly, and when he regained his senses, he found himself in an unfamiliar world.
"This is the Heavenly Phoenix Space? The energy of heaven and earth is so dense, at least several times stronger than the Wind and Thunder Mountains!"
Mo Tang couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.
"Follow me."
Huang Xuan's gaze swept downwards, then he waved his hand, descending towards a certain spot, with Mo Tang and Feng Qing'er quickly following.
Along the way, Mo Tang sensed countless powerful auras, at least at the Dou Zong level… Occasionally, he would see one or two weaker individuals, and then he would see enormous figures flapping their wings and frolicking in the sky—these were all still immature Heavenly Phoenixes.
Although Heavenly Phoenixes can be given human form by powerful members of their clan using their bloodline when they are still minors, most Heavenly Phoenixes choose to let their children grow freely, allowing them to naturally take human form when they reach adulthood.
After the three landed in a golden palace, before Mo Tang could even observe his surroundings, Huang Xuan turned and said, "Mo Tang, come in with me. I've already informed the clan leader; everything concerning you will be decided by him personally."
Mo Tang nodded, and under Feng Qing'er's slightly worried gaze, followed Huang Xuan into the golden palace.
