Chapter 1126: The Laws of Fire and Lightning!

It was a majestic sight. A giant parasol tree that housed an equally majestic phoenix. Even the plumage of the phoenix was a beautiful sight with how the feathers of its tail floated.

This was a sight completely different than the skeletons Bai Yunfei and Xiao Qi had been used to seeing.

There was something off about this phoenix, however. Its actual body was not one of flesh and bone, but an illusion created by the physical manifestation of elemental energy!

Bai Yunfei’s senses were telling him that the bones within this illusion were infused with an astronomical amount of energy. It was little wonder that this illusion could be maintained so perfectly.

An Immortal Iridescent Phoenix. An ancient soulbeast born with the powers of an early-stage class seven soulbeast! What’s more, this soulbeast was capable of using seven of the major elements!

Xiao Qi having talent in wind, lightning, fire, and wood was already something hardly seen in this world. Soulbeasts with multiple affinities were generally very rare to find. In fact, the entire world of soul cultivators would equate Xiao Qi to Bai Yunfei’s level of reputation if they knew about his affinities.

There was a problem with having too many affinities though. Becoming stronger meant Xiao Qi had to raise the level of proficiency and understanding with each element he knew. This meant the bird had to train in all four elements without slacking on any of them or risk an imbalance in knowledge that’d only serve to hamper his strength in the future.

The only reason Xiao Qi used wind and lightning attacks the most was due to the Wind and Lightning Feathers he wore. With Bai Yunfei being a fire-type soul cultivator and the bond they shared, Xiao Qi was able to understand the element of fire without much effort. That left wood being his weakest element.

For Xiao Qi to become a class eight soulbeast meant he had to focus more on elemental wood. It was his weakest link and so Bai Yunfei was hoping that they’d be able to find an ancestor whose primary element was wood.

The best case scenario was finding another soulbeast with talent in the same exact elements as Xiao Qi. But that was too far high of a goal to reach for.

And yet, here they stood today. That goal had not only been met…it was exceeded!

The Immortal Iridescent Phoenix was a soulbeast capable of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and wind!

“Chirp!!”

Four different rays of light exploded forth from Xiao Qi as he ascended to the skies. Shining with each of the four elements he could control, Xiao Qi transformed into a larger form of himself.

His feathers shined with three additional colors, but they were drowned out by the primary four and were only limited to the very tips of those feathers. From a distance, Xiao Qi was starting to resemble the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix in shape and color.

He was focused entirely on the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix above him. Soulforce pulsating in rhythmic pulses, Xiao Qi flapped his wings and shot higher up into the air.

Now that Xiao Qi was the same size as Immortal Iridescent Phoenix, it was really startling to see how different the two were. If Xiao Qi’s original size was a small three-year-old child, then his current size was about the same size as an adult man.

Stopping right below the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix’s feet, Xiao Qi hovered there in the air with his head bowed low as if praying to the soulbeast.

“Bzz….”

Bai Yunfei thought he could feel the world shake. Was it his eyes? Or was the illusion over the phoenix’s body starting to flicker a bit?

It wasn’t just his imagination—the illusion was definitely starting to flicker!

The head of the phoenix was now pointing downward as if to look at Xiao Qi! The wings were slowly folding in on the smaller bird as if to embrace Xiao Qi like a child!

Bai Yunfei could feel the world’s energy around him begin to quicken in its circulation. Faster and faster, the energies were blending together to gather around the parasol tree.

“It’s starting!”

The Bloodhowl Wolf King told him that the acceptance of an inheritance wouldn’t be dangerous at all, but that didn’t stop Bai Yunfei from feeling nervous.

His bond with Xiao Qi was telling him that the bird was currently deep in a state of meditation. One that seemed to expound on the impermanence of life. Xiao Qi was no longer a bird with a soul, but a sponge in the ocean of knowledge and absorbing all there was needed to know from the phoenix’s inheritance.

All sorts of color were springing to life. New colors, like orange, yellow, and blue were being ‘deflected’ from the phoenix’s embrace while the other four colors were absorbed into the phoenix to be transferred into Xiao Qi.

Bai Yunfei had no idea what was going on. The information he was receiving from his bond wasn’t enough for him to understand the situation. The techniques of the avian clan were beyond his comprehension. But gradually…he could feel himself learning more about the world’s energies!

Techniques may differ between soulbeasts and soul cultivators, but insights on the energies of the world all lead to the same destination for both.

“This…”

Feeling more and more knowledgeable about the world, Bai Yunfei began to feel more in tune with himself. The fireseed in his body was starting to thrum rhythmically with his surroundings as if resonating with it!

He was no longer focusing on what was happening with Xiao Qi. Realizing the time was nigh for his own understanding, Bai Yunfei sat down on the ground and began to meditate!

The bond between him and Xiao Qi was perfect. Their hearts and mind could share what they felt through that bond, allowing the two of them to learn almost equally from the same experience!

And what Bai Yunfei was learning about right now was about the Law of Fire!

Bai Yunfei could say he had a decent grasp on the Laws of Fire. His understanding on the topic was rudimentary but passable. That was changing now due to what Xiao Qi was going through. His eyes were being opened to a new realm of possibilities. Many new paths were opening themselves up for Bai Yunfei to walk on! If the path he walked on before was a dangerous cliffside path, then this time he was basically walking on an open plain!

“Bzzz….”

He wasn’t aware of it due to how immersed he was in his trance, but the illusionary phoenix flickered once again before a stream of red light flowed from it toward him!

“Crack!!”

The sky was clear of clouds, but somehow, a bolt of violet lightning crashed down from them to join the stream of red light around Bai Yunfei!

It wasn’t just the Laws of Fire that Bai Yunfei was learning more about. Thanks to his companion lightningseed, he was also beginning to learn more about elemental lightning!

Compared to the Law of Fire, this bolt of lightning was a little weaker. But like the Law of Fire, this bolt of lightning contained a law within it too!

The Laws of Lightning were now being summoned!!
