Primordial 'Dual Cultivator' Dragon With System

Chapter 1393: Dark Phoenix Ancestor Soul

”Here comes the ancestor of the Dark Phoenix.” Zhe Shouhu and Xing Jiangjun spoke from a distance.

The Dark Phoenix is ​​​​a massive bird covered in deep black feathers that shimmer faintly with purple and crimson highlights when struck by light. Its wings spread wide to both sides, each beat scattering sparks of dark flame that burn without smoke.

Its eyes glow with a piercing and sharp scarlet light, giving the sense that nothing escapes its gaze. A crown of flame-like feathers rises from its head, marking its royal status among flame beasts. Its talons are long and metallic, capable of tearing through stone and steel with ease.

Its tail feathers are long and flowing, resembling streams of dark fire trailing behind it, leaving glowing embers in the air wherever it passes. Its presence radiates heat and pressure, a mixture of elegance and overwhelming power.

Unlike the two male immortals, Ling Yun casually stood in his spot while holding his broadsword, and his gaze was completely focused on the Dark Phoenix’s soul.

Soon, the Dark Phoenix’s soul arrived before Ling Yun and stared at him with its scarlet eyes. Unlike the beast souls he faced before, the dark phoenix immediately transformed into her human form and landed in front of him.

Her face is pretty but sharp, with high cheekbones and a defined jawline. Her skin is pale with a faint glow, carrying an intimidating but elegant look. Her crimson-red irises, narrow and piercing, burn faintly like embers. She had long, black hair with a natural sheen flowing down her back. Her figure is tall and slim, with long legs, well-proportioned and full breasts, and balanced with graceful curves. Even in her human form, a faint heat radiates from her body.

The Dark Phoenix tried to strangle Ling Yun’s neck, but he swiftly slapped her hand away, causing her to frown. ”In the past, your predecessor killed me along with all the other members of my race. Even Huang Lingzhu was unwilling to let me die in peace, and she bound my soul to this place specifically to protect the dragon eyes.”

”I understand your hatred for them, but I am not my predecessor.” The dark phoenix fiercely stared at Ling Yun. ”To tell you the truth, I hate Huang Lingzhu because she toyed with the lives of my two wives; she manipulated their lives and caused them to experience a terrible past, especially Luxuria.”

The Dark Phoenix was shocked to hear that name. ”Is it true that Luxuria, the Lust Spirit, is your wife?”

”Do I need to lie to you?” Ling Yun created a Qi screen featuring Ling Xi. ”Her current name is no longer Luxuria but Ling Xi, and I gave that name to her after she saved me from death. In the past, I was born a mortal without any knowledge of cultivation; however, she gifted me the Primordial Chaos Dragon and taught me how to cultivate.”

”So, it wasn’t that bastard dragon who chose you as his successor?”

”No.” Ling Yun immediately showed her his memories of when he nearly died and his first meeting with Ling Xi.

The Dark Phoenix thoughtfully watched the memories appear on the screen, including Ling Yun and Ling Xi’s conversation at the time, convincing her that Long Hun had not chosen him as his successor.

The Dark Phoenix raised an eyebrow when Ling Yun changed the image that appeared on the Qi screen, which now showed the process of Hua Ning turning into a Dark Phoenix.

”What!?” The Dark Phoenix exclaimed in shock as soon as Hua Ning completed her transformation and became a dark phoenix. ”How... how is this possible? How... how did you manage to turn her into my kin?”

”Hahaha.” Ling Yun laughed at her shocked expression. ”As soon as they said that your soul was in this domain, I immediately thought of it, and I knew you would be overjoyed to know that your race still exists in this universe. Actually, I used my Demon Creation Manual to turn my wife into a demon, but the changes are always random, so I didn’t expect that she would turn into a Dark Phoenix like you.”

”The demon creation manual, huh?” The Dark Phoenix muttered as she stole a glance at the two male immortals. ”You’re right, I was overjoyed that a Dark Phoenix was born in this universe even though it was unintentional. When that bastard dragon killed me and the members of my race, I thought my race would be extinct forever, but now another one was born.”

”Haha.” Ling Yun laughed and changed the image again, displaying the process of Hua Ning giving birth to Yun Jingqiu. ”There are two Dark Phoenixes now, as my first daughter inherited her mother’s bloodline.”

The Dark Phoenix’s expression became even more excited as soon as she saw Yun Jingqiu. ”I’ve been dead for so long, and I’ve always held a grudge against your predecessor. I never thought I’d be able to witness my race return to this universe, not just one, but two. This way, my race will become more numerous in the future, and people will fear my race once again. But how could your daughter be born as a dark phoenix if you’re human? She should have been born as a mixed breed, right?”

”Honestly, I initially thought the same, but Qiu’er is a pure Dark Phoenix.” Then, Ling Yun asked her. ”Do you want to meet them?”

The Dark Phoenix was surprised to hear that. ”Can you bring them here? If you can do it, I will pass on all my techniques to them, and they will become extremely powerful in the future.”

”I can bring them here.” Ling Yun monitored the map for a moment before creating several layers of void walls surrounding them, surprising the Dark Phoenix. The two male immortals immediately moved to the side of the void walls, guarding them from bad possibilities.

The Dark Phoenix was even more shocked when he opened the Yin-Yang Chamber, but soon Hua Ning carried Yun Jinqiu out of it, which overjoyed her to see two of her kin.

”Father!” Yun Jingqiu exclaimed and jumped into her father’s arms before looking at the Dark Phoenix. ”Eh? Who is this aunt, Father? Why can’t I feel life from her? Is she a ghost? However, I can feel my bloodline churning with excitement because of her.”

”I feel the same way, Yun’er.” Hua Ning spoke as she stood to the side of Ling Yun, who immediately hugged her.

Ling Yun explained to them directly. ”She is the ancestor of the Dark Phoenix race, so you two shouldn’t be surprised if your bloodline reacts like this. However, she is only her soul because she died long ago.”

Hearing that, Hua Ning immediately cupped her hands toward the Dark Phoenix and bowed slightly. Even though they weren’t directly related, her current self was a Dark Phoenix, so she felt it was only natural to pay her respects. ”Ancestor, my name is Hua Ning, and my daughter is Yun Jingqiu.”

”Aunt Dark Phoenix.” Yun Jingqiu followed her mother to pay respects to her.

”Hahaha.” The Dark Phoenix laughed heartily at the sight of the two of them, and she immediately touched their foreheads, imparting many techniques into their minds. ”Those are my past techniques, and since you two are my kin, you should learn them. If more Dark Phoenixes are born in this universe in the future, you must pass them on to your descendants.”

”Thank you, Ancestor.” Hua Ning sincerely said.

The Dark phoenix nodded at her. ”I still want to talk to you two, but this domain is too dangerous. Therefore, you two should go back inside now, and I will take your husband to the location where the eye of the primordial chaos dragon is sealed.”

”Yes, Ancestor.”

Hua Ning took Yun Jingqiu straight away. ”Aunt Dark Phoenix, I hope we will meet again in the future! Father, you must bring her to see us!”

The Dark Phoenix smiled at Yun Jingqiu’s words, but unfortunately, she couldn’t do so because her soul was bound to the Ancestral Burial Domain.

”Is there a chance you can come back to life?” Ling Yun asked the Dark Phoenix after he closed the portal to the chamber.

The Dark Phoenix nodded at him. ”Actually, my soul is still intact, even though I’ve been dead for so long. But as I said before, Huang Lingzhu bound my soul to this domain to guard the primordial chaos dragon, so I can’t go anywhere.”

”I see.” Ling Yun nodded in understanding. ”Since you still have a chance to reshape your body, I will definitely free your soul from this domain. If Huang Lingzhu is not willing to do it, I will force her to do it after I become the next primordial chaos dragon and reach her level.”

The Dark Phoenix only smiled in response. ”I will take you to that place, and you don’t have to waste time fighting these stupid beasts.”

Ling Yun dispelled the void walls and walked behind the Dark Phoenix, but he occasionally stole glances elsewhere. ’Heh! I know you’re hiding there, but I’ll never let you hurt my family.’

The two male immortals could only shake their heads as they watched them leave. ”I didn’t expect the outcome to be like this.”

”Me too.” Xing Jiangjun nodded in agreement. ”At first, I thought the Dark Phoenix would give Ling Yun fierce fight, but the presence of his wife and first daughter changed the outcome.”
