Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 846: Chapter 530: The Phoenix Remains Emerge! (Double-Length)

Suddenly, he struck out with one palm, shattering two feathers that were about to hit him head-on.

Golden flames burned fiercely in his palm. Song Changming felt the extreme heat of the fire and abruptly clenched his palm. The fierce palm force extinguished the Mysterious Fire, leaving only slightly charred skin on his palm.

He shook his hand, and the burned skin quickly scabbed and fell off, revealing new skin as good as new.

The Hawk Demon suddenly turned its head, easily dodging a palm strike from behind by Prince Cui.

”Changming, what’s happening to her?” Prince Cui kept asking.

”As you can see, she’s lost control a bit.” Song Changming didn’t know how to explain, as even he didn’t understand the state of the Hawk Demon at the moment.

”She seems to have lost herself. Does the Great King have any way to awaken her?”

”Me? I’ll try...” Prince Cui asked no further, he formed a hand seal, transforming his Spiritual Power into a heavy hammer that he slammed onto the Hawk Demon.

”Wake up!”

Prince Cui’s voice was like a ringing bell. Whenever the people under him fell into some strange Demon Technique and lost themselves, he would use this Magic Technique to awaken them.

But this time it was ineffective. The Hawk Demon’s expression didn’t change, and she even seemed more agitated.

It directly abandoned Song Changming and flew towards Prince Cui.

Prince Cui muttered ”bad” under his breath, drew his sword, and thrust it out. Cultivation surged, and he dared not hold back.

The sword struck the Flame Feather Robe on the Hawk Demon, unable to advance further.

Seeing this, Prince Cui decisively detonated the Master’s Power on his sword, allowing his figure to escape.

The Hawk Demon was not injured by this and transformed one hand into a demon claw, intending to grab Prince Cui again who was trying to distance himself.

At that moment, Song Changming transformed into a Thunder Light and intercepted her, kicking out against her demon claw.

Thunder Light streaked through the air for dozens of miles, with terrifying force clinging to his leg, making Song Changming’s kick explosively powerful.

It kicked the Hawk Demon into the sky, breaking through the clouds, disappearing over the horizon.

”Huh, is it thundering? Has the sun disappeared?”

The townspeople below couldn’t see the battle high above, only hearing a clap of thunder, and then the dazzling second golden sun suddenly vanished.

Song Changming pursued closely, continually striking the Hawk Demon in mid-air, kicking her away like a ball.

Since gentle means couldn’t awaken her, he decided to be a bit rougher.

The golden sun fell from the sky, smashing into a mountain.

The mountain collapsed, transforming a radius of dozens of miles into a high-temperature fiery Purgatory!

On the ground, Song Changming stood on the lava, gripping the slender neck of the Hawk Demon, lifting her up.

After the fierce pursuit and beating just now, he hardly held back, causing the Hawk Demon to pass out, her head drooping.

Yet even though the Hawk Demon had lost consciousness, the Golden Flame on her body did not extinguish, instead spreading along Song Changming’s arm, covering his entire body.

It seemed as though the controller of this Mysterious Fire was not the Hawk Demon, but someone else.

And Song Changming thought the same, squinting his eyes slightly, staring at the leaping Golden Flame.

”Come out, even a small Residual Soul struggling on its last breath, acting so covertly disgraces the name of the Ancient Celestial Phoenix Race!” Song Changming said, ignoring the spreading Golden Flame.

He bore the Thunder Seed, with Thunder Armor protecting him, allowing him to endure the Mysterious Fire without being easily burned through.

As his voice fell, a shadow emerged from the Hawk Demon’s body.

Song Changming thought to himself, indeed, this shadow was the Celestial Phoenix illusion that had appeared on the Hawk Demon before.

The one controlling the Hawk Demon’s body all this time was this shadow, or more accurately, the Residual Soul of the Ancient Celestial Phoenix!

Before, when he was exploring the Underground Black Stele, he hadn’t seen the Hawk Demon appear.

Most likely, she found the Celestial Phoenix remains elsewhere in the Celestial Ruins Realm and was then entangled by this Residual Soul of the Celestial Phoenix.

If it were just a Residual Soul of the Celestial Phoenix, it wouldn’t be difficult to deal with, considering that the Black Stele had manifested tens of thousands of ancient Residual Souls, yet they could do nothing to him.

This was just a Residual Soul, not the real Ancient Divine Beast appearing in the world.

What truly made him feel somewhat tricky was this Residual Soul of the Celestial Phoenix attaching to the Hawk Demon’s body, he wanted to eliminate the Residual Soul but had to consider the safety of the Hawk.

If it were an ordinary Great Demon, destroying it would be just that.

But this Hawk already had a relationship with him and was closely associated with the Little Phoenix and Su Qingqing, long since ceasing to be viewed as an ordinary Great Demon.

”Since that’s the case...”

Song Changming decided to try, With a single thought, his Divine Soul emerged from his brow.

The small figure, stern-faced and radiant, raised its small hand toward Song Changming’s waist where the God-devouring Saber was.

”Come forth, saber!”

The God-devouring Saber’s Evil Beast emerged from within, roaring but obediently transforming into a Spiritual Body Knife, held perfectly by the Divine Soul.

”Die!”

The Divine Soul’s voice was childlike, lacking any dominance, but moved swiftly.

In a flash, the blade had landed on the Residual Soul of the Celestial Phoenix, its surface Golden Flame unable to hinder the Divine Soul’s attack at all.

The soul body, reaching the Witch God Soul level in strength, was immune to the Golden Flame’s burn!

And the Celestial Phoenix was merely a tattered soul body; with one slash, consumed by the Evil Beast, it was on the brink of collapse.

The Residual Soul let out a wail, inducing a soul resonance, and summoned something within the Hawk Demon’s body.

A massive Skeleton!

Celestial Phoenix Skeleton!

A terrifying pressure emanated from it, but Song Changming’s Divine Soul, trained to Witch God Soul, could withstand the Divine Beast’s pressure on the Skeleton.

If it were an ordinary soul body or spirit body, they would likely have been utterly annihilated by the pressure!

”Hmph!”

The Divine Soul snorted coldly, directly resisting the Divine Beast’s pressure, raising its hand and slashing again.

This time the Residual Soul could no longer resist, shattered by two slashes from Song Changming’s Divine Soul.

With the Residual Soul’s disappearance, the Golden Flame on the Hawk was quickly consumed by the Celestial Phoenix Skeleton.

Seeing this, Song Changming’s Divine Soul returned to the Nether Sea, while the Evil Beast, still chewing the Residual Soul, returned to the God-devouring Saber.

Opening his eyes, Song Changming’s neck revealing the Sound Spider.

”Wake up.” Song Changming released his grip and shouted.

The Hawk Demon’s soul trembled, as if a drowning person suddenly lifted their head, breathing desperately.

”What happened to me...” The Hawk Demon gasped, her ample chest rising and falling unstably, rarely showing such a reaction from someone usually so composed.

She looked at Song Changming with a hint of confusion as previously hazy memories began to emerge.

She realized the hidden Residual Soul had seized her body and that Song Changming had saved her.

Thinking of this, she looked at Song Changming with genuine gratitude in her eyes.

Though she seemed aloof, anyone interacting with her would find this Hawk to be unexpectedly pure and even simple at heart; her joys and sorrows rarely exposed.

”I owe you a favor, you can call upon me for something in the future.” She said earnestly, her way of expressing gratitude.

”Let’s not speak of favors. I never expected you to have such a big treasure...” Song Changming looked at the huge Skeleton hanging in the sky, speaking slowly.

The Skeleton overshadowed the sky, casting a vast shadow that danced in the sunlight, like a monstrous beast.

He had seen Residual Souls of the Celestial Phoenix, the Celestial Phoenix Feather on the Hawk, and nurtured a Little Phoenix with Celestial Phoenix Bloodline.

One might say he was no stranger to the various aspects of the Celestial Phoenix.

But now, as the entire Celestial Phoenix Skeleton appeared before him, the impact and awe lingered in his heart, refusing to fade.

After all, this was genuinely a Skeleton of a Divine Beast from ancient times!
