Chapter 641 - 327: Edge of the World Pavilion and the Phoenix Bloodline
In the Archipelago Cultivation Realm of the East Origin Sea Realm, where various major Cultivation Forces intersect, news about Zheng Yi, the Isle Master of Azure Waves, circulated everywhere, sparking increasingly heated discussions.
Zheng Yi, however, appeared to be carefree, wandering around. Amidst his meanderings, he arrived at a secluded spot on the edge of the Sea Realm, the Outer Sea location known as Edge of the World Island.
This island is unlike others; it is a fully commercialized Immortal Island City. In this city, you can purchase anything you desire, whether items or information, provided you have enough wealth.
Indeed, only a step away but worlds apart!
This island has borne the same name for ten thousand years.
It has also become a legendary place among many traveling merchants.
Various Commerce Associations and forces of the Sea Realm, including the Flood Dragon Demon Court, have established their own associations on the island, trading all sorts of resources produced.
However, one point must be made clear: all forces and individuals on the island must abide by the island’s rules.
There is a ban on any form of violence; once you act, you will be met with terrifying suppression.
Even Nascent Soul Cultivators need to restrain their aura here, as the island is backed by a force known as the ’Edge of the World Pavilion.’
This Edge of the World Pavilion is fundamentally a force that sells information. In the Sea Realm, you can purchase any information you wish to know.
As long as you can afford the price, all the information you need will be delivered to you.
The Edge of the World Pavilion claims to know everything in the Sea Realm!
Indeed, this is the philosophy of the Edge of the World Pavilion!
To operate such a formidable intelligence organization, its lineage is even older than the Flood Dragon Imperial Court, hinting at the terrifying potential forces behind it.
Immeasurable and profound.
There have always been rumors outside.
Within the Edge of the World Pavilion, there lingers the shadow of a legendary Divinity Transformation Divine Venerable.
But the truth remains elusive.
Fortunately, the Edge of the World Pavilion maintains its principle of absolute neutrality, selling only information without intervening in conflicts or disputes.
Therefore, over the years, it has maintained amicable relations with the Archipelago Cultivation Realm and various major forces of the Outer, Deep, and Near Seas, even engaging in a myriad of business dealings.
After all, no one would turn away from money.
The headquarters of the Edge of the World Pavilion is the island’s most magnificent building, five stories tall, with each floor corresponding to the importance of the information.
For example, the first and second floors contain less important, commonly available information, broad and comprehensive.
The third floor offers some confidential information, only circulating within a certain range.
The fourth floor sells information known only to certain high-ranking individuals.
As for the fifth floor, it contains extremely secretive information, known to very few people.
Zheng Yi stood in front of the towering building, shrouded in a layer of black gauze, forming a tiny black hole, capable of absorbing some senses of Magical Power and Soul Power.
Every cultivator entering this Edge of the World Pavilion wears this uniform attire, preventing outsiders from knowing who is purchasing information.
"Customer, what information would you like to purchase?!"
A dedicated staff guided the customer into a room, carefully inquiring.
"Phoenix Bloodline!"
"I need information on the Phoenix Bloodline..."
Zheng Yi merely uttered these four words, causing the receptionist to show a slight hint of surprise, then nodded respectfully, leading the way slowly.
"This way, sir!"
Under the receptionist’s guidance, Zheng Yi and his company entered a hidden passage, ascending a device powered by Spiritual Power, like an elevator, reaching the top high floor.
Subsequently, he was led into a relatively spacious room, and the receptionist then carefully exited.
Before long, an old man entered the room, his aged face paired with sharp eyes that briefly scanned Zheng Yi before speaking.
"You have come for information on the Phoenix Bloodline, haven’t you?"
Zheng Yi nodded, then took off a ring and flicked it over.
The old man caught it, briefly inspected it, and a relaxed expression appeared on his face, revealing a slight smile.
"More refunds than charges, as per the rules of Heaven’s Edge Sea River! You must have gone through our pricing beforehand."
"Once the transaction is complete, any excess payment will naturally be returned personally..."
The man at this time continued to speak.
"The Phoenix is an Ancient True Spirit Divine Beast, rivaling the Dragon Race, but due to its noble character, its offspring’s bloodline is extremely rare, predominantly gathered on land. In this East Origin Sea area, it is indeed scarce..."
"Currently, the Phoenix Bloodline in East Origin Sea is exceedingly rare, with only a single lineage left in the Outer Sea on Phoenix Cry Island."
Upon hearing this name, Zheng Yi’s expression changed, feeling a faint sense of familiarity.
"On Phoenix Cry Island, located in the depths of the Outer Sea, there is a place where Phoenix Tree Wood takes root, a land where the sun sets. Even there, true possessors of the Phoenix Bloodline are extremely rare."
"In addition to this, according to information from the Edge of the World Pavilion, there were descendants of Phoenix Cry Island who violated clan rules, had their bloodline sealed, were exiled, and eventually combined with an ancestor from Immortal Crane Island, one of the Thirty-Six Islands of the Archipelago Cultivation Realm, leaving behind a hidden bloodline!"
"Generally, the Phoenix Bloodline is divided into latent and manifest types. Among them, the ’latent’ bloodline is abundant but unusable. The constitution is special, fundamentally different from ordinary people in terms of Fire Attribute Cultivation, and can be considered a genius. But unless the bloodline awakens, it cannot be deemed as truly possessing Phoenix Blood."
"The remainder is the manifest bloodline, possessing the true Phoenix Bloodline. And on Immortal Crane Island in this generation, only one person, with a special constitution, has the potential to awaken Phoenix Blood. That is Fan Xian’Er of this generation, the direct heir of Immortal Crane Island, the daughter of the Island Lord!"
When the old man shared this information, Zheng Yi couldn’t help but be shocked.
A delicate and charming face appeared in his mind.
Coincidentally, he had an impression of this Fan Xian’Er.
They had once met at the Floating Island Immortal Assembly.
He didn’t expect that while searching high and low, the Phoenix Blood he needed was inside her.
Truly mysterious and wondrous are the fates, and coincidences abound.
Unexpectedly, after a full circle, he returned to the starting point.
"Where is she?!"
Zheng Yi’s eyes flickered as he slowly spoke.
"Sir, you may not have an answer to that; you will have to find her yourself."
"Ten years ago, the Floating Island Immortal Assembly suffered severe damage, and Immortal Crane Island was annihilated in a battle by the Flood Dragon Demon Court, with almost all of the Island Lord’s lineage dying in the fight. As for Fan Xian’Er, she disappeared directly after the battle."
"Despite our Edge of the World Pavilion searching everywhere for information, we have not found any trace of Fan Xian’Er!"
"But there are indications that she is not dead."
"It is highly likely, under the chaotic state of the world, that she has gone into hiding..."
The old man spread his palms, his expression appeared very helpless.
He understood well that compared to the previous information, this latter piece of news is undoubtedly more valuable, but unfortunately even they have no information, thus, they can only express regret.
After leaving the Edge of the World Pavilion, Zheng Yi’s expression continuously changed, eventually sinking into silence.
...
Upon discovering the whereabouts of Fan Xian’Er, the one descendant possessing the Phoenix Bloodline from Immortal Crane Island, Zheng Yi directly returned to the Doomsday World.
By now, after more than twenty years of development, this place has changed dramatically.
With the continuous growth of the Three Realms Tree, the canopy extends into endless void, the immense tree body piercing through Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost in the entire Doomsday World, countless roots embedding into the Netherworld, slowly repairing some mysterious rules.
Previously, the Doomsday World was polluted by external forces, severely damaging the rule power of the entire world, even causing distortion, gradually falling towards indescribable, unpredictable paths.
The Heavenly Dao crumbled, the world rules completely disintegrated.
Cthulhu influences intensified.
The Dao fades as demons rise.
Amidst chaos, various unspeakable eerie rules finally emerged, influenced by the sky’s Blood Moon and also polluted by foreign objects like Heaven and Earth Divine Demon Map falling into this world, frightening races like the Corpse Race suddenly flourished, an example of such.
Fortunately, Zheng Yi, an unforeseen individual in this scenario, also took an interest in the resources here, step by step transforming this place into another doomsday base outside the Cultivation Realm, even embarking on the Path of the Divine Dao.
Seeking survival in the cracks, step by step dividing and dismantling, driving a tiger to swallow a wolf, forcing this world’s Heavenly Dao to compromise, sacrificing millions of Power of Incense, usurping the Celestial Dao Authority with his old shed self, unifying the Incense Fire Dharma Realm, directly acquiring a Celestial Dao Body.
Greatly destroying the Outer Realm Demon Country, uprooting the entire foundation of the Corpse Race.
Moreover, obtaining fragments of the Heaven and Earth Divine Demon Map, completing the final authority of his own Incense Fire Dharma Realm.
Enshrining the divine.
Netherworld Netherworld Immortal Positioning Map.
Allowing the Incense Fire Dharma Realm self-contained rules in this world to gain some supplementation.
Under the leadership of the Soul Hall, the Human Race cultivated numerous Blood Warriors and Soul Warriors, alongside various derivative war and transcendent professions.
With gradually strengthening military support, the western continent along with surrounding spatial regions have become controlled areas of the Soul Hall.
A mass of transcendent warriors came forth to either subjugate or suppress the forces surrounding those beyond the Soul Hall Belief’s control, directly extirpating them, leaving nothing behind.
Various different races and anomalies, all subdued if possible, or otherwise immediately suppressed.
If not, they would be utterly destroyed, killed.
In this way, step by step, the land within the realm was entirely engulfed in the domain of the Soul Hall Belief.
Increasingly more humans joined the Soul Hall Belief, gradually forming vast Belief cities, towering cities reaching the clouds, re-establishing a civilization belonging to humanity, albeit already changing flags, with no trace of the past technological civilization, embarking on the path of Divine Dao transcendence.
Established based on the foundation of the Soul Hall Belief, uniting the Human Race and all other races into a new Divine Dao civilization.
This became the emblem of the western continent.
