Chapter 166 Immortal Phoenix Mark
The Immortal Emperor, in the legends of the ancient tribes, is a being that is both human and god, and is the supreme god worshipped by them.

There are many legends about the Immortal Emperor, and some of them are so outrageous that many people don’t even believe that he really existed and think he is a character made up by later generations.

But it still does not hinder the Immortal Emperor's supreme status in the hearts of all ancient races.

It took Li Zhi three full days to refine a three-tiered altar with a diameter of one foot. The bottom tier of the altar was made of a mixture of gold of the five elements, the middle tier was made of jade of the five elements, and the top tier was carved from wood of the five elements.

The three-tiered altar is covered with densely packed rune carvings.

During these three days, the anxious big black dog would quietly come to Li Zhi's residence from time to time to check on the progress of refining the forbidden weapon.

Coming to Li Zhi's residence again, looking at the newly formed altar in front of him, which seemed unable to withstand his step, Hei Huang's eyes were full of doubts, and he asked: "Little Taoist priest, can your magic weapon work?"

Li Zhi said confidently: "If this doesn't work, then nothing in the world can work."

For this altar, Li Zhi not only imitated the three-story altar in the Wheel Sea, but even incorporated the secret art of stealing the secrets of heaven. The power of the one-time forbidden weapon he refined was absolutely beyond imagination. This was not the simple altar for offering sacrifices to heaven that he had arranged before.

The goal of stealing the innate imprint of the Emperor's son's body can definitely be achieved.

The Emperor's son is known to have the best bloodline in the world, and there is nothing wrong with that. Even if the chaotic body comes, no one can say that it will definitely be stronger than the Emperor's son's physique.

Compared with the Fighting Holy Ape and the Holy Body of the human race, the Immortal Phoenix bloodline does have a very obvious advantage in terms of physique.

Unfortunately, times have changed, and the influence of bloodline on a cultivator is no longer as strong as it was in the ancient times.

Powerful bloodline power is no longer the key to whether a cultivator can truly grow.

The Saintess of Yaochi, who had been staying with Li Zhi to protect him, also said, "Changshou, can you really do this? If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid it will provoke the ancient ancestor king to besiege Yaochi."

Li Zhi said, "There will definitely be no problem. I'm not going to sacrifice him, and I won't trigger the restrictions that the Immortal Emperor left on him. I won't cause any trouble for Yao Chi."

Yao Chi Saint chose to believe Li Zhi, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I will transfer those people around the Stone King tonight."

Li Zhi said: "There may be some risks, but compared with the gains after the success, those risks are not worth mentioning. The origin imprint of the immortal phoenix probably contains the real immortal secret method. Although it is not very helpful for your current practice, when we become saints in the future, we will discover the wonderful use of the immortal secret method."

After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, the big black dog drooled and said, "Little Taoist priest, can you teach this method to me?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "No."

The big black dog still refused to give up, and even said: "I will exchange my Black Emperor Scripture with you."

Li Zhi just smiled and said, "No."

That night, the Holy Maiden of Yao Chi transferred away all the people near the Stone King. With the help of moonlight, Li Zhi and the big black dog quietly came to the side of the Stone King.

"Young Taoist priest, there's no one around now, let's get started quickly." After arriving at the place, the big black dog kept urging.

Li Zhi did not hesitate and placed the altar in front of the Stone King. Then he said to the big black dog, "Black Emperor, lend me the Ancient Emperor Order in your hand."

The big black dog did not hesitate at this time and directly took out the ancient imperial order of the Immortal Emperor.

Then, Li Zhi took out a fist-sized piece of fairy source.

Just as Li Zhi was about to open the altar, he suddenly heard the little girl's furtive voice, "Big brother, the dogs are here."

Hearing the sound, Big Black Dog and Li Zhi turned their heads instantly and saw the figures of Xiao Nannan and Ye Fan.

"Ye boy, why are you here?" said the big black dog.

"You've been acting mysterious these past few days. I was afraid that you might be eating something secretly in Yao Chi, so I came here with Nannan to check on you." Ye Fan said seriously without a trace of embarrassment on his face.

Little Nannan ran to Li Zhi and asked innocently, "Brother Taoist, do you want to eat this little egg? Can you roast it before eating it? Nannan wants to eat it cooked."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Nannan, this fairy phoenix egg is not for eating, but for viewing. Fairy phoenixes are a rare species in our area. If you want to eat fairy phoenix eggs, then wait until Nannan goes to the fairyland in the future. You can catch a large group of fairy phoenixes and raise them in the yard. Then let them lay eggs for you to eat. You can roast them, boil them, steam them, and eat them in any way you want, sour, sweet, spicy, whatever flavor you want."

Little Nannan's eyes lit up and she said, "Then wait until Nannan goes to the fairyland before eating the eggs."

After hearing the conversation between Li Zhi and Xiao Nannan, Ye Fan was obviously stunned, and then asked the big black dog: "Hei Huang, who is this little Taoist priest? Why haven't I seen him before? What are you going to do?"

Hei Huang asked curiously: "You don't know him?"

Ye Fan had some doubts in his eyes and said, "Should I know him?"

Hei Huang chuckled and said, "Then use your Yuantian God Eyes to see who he really is. I have to say, the little Taoist has changed a lot, no wonder you couldn't recognize him."

Ye Fan immediately opened his eyes to observe Li Zhi, but found that Li Zhi did not use any transformation techniques. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that Li Zhi looked familiar.

After feeling that he was being watched, a huge ghost face mask instantly appeared on Li Zhi's body, which directly covered his real body like a shield, making it impossible for Ye Fan's Yuantian Divine Eyes to see what was behind the mask.

"The successor of a ruthless person?" Ye Fan asked in surprise.

"Ye Fan, what's with that look in your eyes? It's only been eight or nine years since you last saw my original appearance, have you completely forgotten it?" Li Zhi said then.

"Are you Li Zhi?" Only then did Ye Fan realize that the Taoist in front of him seemed to be Li Zhi from Earth who was a few years younger.

It seemed that he was fundamentally different from the Li Zhi he had met before, even his blood aura had become different.

If Ye Fan could see through Li Zhi's true form just now, he would have discovered that Li Zhi's blood aura at this moment was exactly the same as when he was on Earth.

The special physical aura of the immortal body has completely disappeared.

"This little Taoist priest is a truly ruthless man. He used the Chaos Green Lotus to cut himself off, and even cut off the origin of his immortal body, directly turning him into a mortal body. It must be said that this kind of courage of his is not something that a normal person can possess." Hei Huang also explained to Ye Fan.

"Mortal body, Li Zhi, you have actually become a mortal body. Why is that? Isn't it good to have an immortal body? Why do you want to commit suicide?" Ye Fan asked puzzled.

Li Zhi did not choose to hide it, but directly said: "My immortal body is given by the immortality elixir, not my innate constitution. My current constitution is my innate constitution. There is not a trace of acquired carving, and there will be no shackles of constitution in the future."

At this moment, Xiao Nannan suddenly said to Ye Fan: "Big brother, you don't have to worry about the Taoist brother. He is in good health, just like big brother and the dog. Even the bad little dragon has become a good person."

After hearing what Xiao Nannan said, Li Zhi's mind moved, and he quickly squatted down and asked: "Nannan, has the Taoist priest's health improved or worse compared to the past few days?"

Little Nannan said seriously: "Brother Taoist, your health has improved a lot. It was a bit messy before. It was like it was pieced together from here and there. Now it is almost as good as big brother's."

After listening to what Xiao Nannan said, Li Zhi's uneasy heart finally settled down.

"Time waits for no one. We'll talk after we finish our business." After saying that, Li Zhi came to the altar and began to cast a spell.

Seeing this, Ye Fan curiously asked Hei Huang: "What are you going to do?"

Black Emperor said excitedly: "Steal the original life mark of the Immortal Phoenix."

Ye Fan was surprised and asked, "What? You actually want to cut open this fairy egg. Aren't you afraid of angering the ancient ancestor king? Does Yao Chi Holy Land know what you are going to do?"

Black Emperor said with shining eyes: "Don't worry, the young Taoist priest has repeatedly assured us that he will not damage the stone. As for the people from Yao Chi Holy Land, they must know what we are doing. I guess there is a group of strong men from Yao Chi Holy Land hiding around and watching."

Ye Fan quickly turned his head and looked around, trying to find someone from Yao Chi, but found nothing.

Little Nannan pulled Ye Fan's clothes, pointed to a place in the sky, and whispered to him: "Big brother, there are three sisters, five aunts and a group of grandmothers watching us there."

Ye Fan quickly opened his eyes of heaven and looked in that direction. Sure enough, he saw a group of Yao Chi masters.

Moreover, among the group of old women, the auras of several people were particularly strong, as if they were beyond the great power, and they were Yao Chi strongmen that he had never seen before. However, Hei Huang didn't care at all and said, "Don't worry about the people of Yao Chi, they probably have blocked this place. You should just watch the performance of the little Taoist priest."

At this time, Li Zhi had already sat in front of the altar and started chanting scriptures.

The mysterious sound of scripture seemed to be the key to opening the altar.

On the third-tier altar, the life force in the fist-sized piece of immortal source was rapidly dissipating.

The originally dazzling fairy source lost its luster in a few breaths and then turned into an ordinary source.

It seemed as if the immortal essence in the immortal source had been absorbed by the altar, leaving behind some ordinary life essence that was not very useful.

Then, mysterious scarlet chains emerged from the altar.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the sound of thunder rumbled in the sky above the Pure Land of Yao Chi, and a heart-pounding aura of heavenly calamity emerged from the dark clouds.

In the strange stone, there is a fairy egg the size of a sea bowl, which is perfectly round and crystal clear. It exudes mysterious energy from time to time, and various patterns of the avenue also emerge from time to time.

The Stone King, who was originally shining with divine light, seemed to feel a fatal threat after the mysterious magic chain appeared, and instantly restrained all his energy.

"Photography!"

At this moment, Li Zhi shot nine mysterious spells towards the altar in succession, and those scarlet chains of law directly invaded the Ancient Emperor's Order.

In an instant, those divine chains imprisoned a wisp of the Immortal Emperor's aura from the Ancient Emperor's Order.

Moreover, using the aura of the Immortal Emperor as its shape and the law of order as its bones, it transformed into a scarlet fairy phoenix the size of a palm.

The three-story altar seemed to have completed its mission and turned directly into a pile of powder.

The calamity clouds in the sky also began to dissipate at the moment the altar was shattered.

Afterwards, the scarlet fairy phoenix flew into the Stone King, ignoring all restrictions and directly entered the fairy egg.

"Chirp!"

Suddenly, a long roar of the Immortal Phoenix carrying a sense of boundless fear came from the immortal egg, as if it was extremely frightened.

Immediately afterwards, the palm-sized scarlet fairy phoenix flew out of the fairy egg and flew directly into the sky.

"Oh!"

The scarlet fairy phoenix exploded directly in the air, forming a mysterious Taoist diagram.

Everyone present immediately memorized the Taoist diagram, and some even took out magical instruments to imprint the diagram.

At the same time, the heavenly calamity that had originally dissipated began to condense again.

"boom!"

A purple bolt of lightning suddenly fell and struck the Dao diagram directly, as if it didn't want this Dao diagram that didn't belong to the human world to appear in the world.

Unfortunately, the mysterious Taoist diagram was very tough, and the first purple thunder did not break it into pieces.

Upon seeing this, Li Zhi's face changed suddenly, and without waiting for the second thunderbolt to fall from heaven and earth, he summoned the God King's Bone Mirror, and shot out a blade energy of the Immortal-Slaying Guillotine, which directly chopped down the Dao diagram.

"Crack!"

Wherever the sword energy passed, the Dao diagram instantly shattered into pieces, and then began to slowly dissipate.

The calamity clouds in the sky suddenly stopped roaring, and the Chaos Thunder that was about to be conceived seemed to be unable to sense its target and dissipated directly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Woof woof, little Taoist priest, what are you doing? I haven't memorized all of it yet." The big black dog was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

Ye Fan next to him also showed a puzzled look. He did not completely remember the Taoist diagram, and only remembered less than one tenth of it.

The elders of the Yao Chi who had already hidden aside in the Heaven-Deceiving Dao Pattern the moment the aura of the heavenly calamity appeared, did not completely remember the Dao diagram, and could not even remember half of it.

Among the people present, only little Nannan stared at the Dao diagram in the sky that was about to disappear completely, revealing a hint of curiosity.

"Nannan, can you see clearly what's in that picture?" Ye Fan suddenly remembered the process of them comprehending the secret of the word "Xing" at the Holy Cliff. Little Nannan was able to perform the secret of the word "Xing" with just one glance.

Nannan thought for a moment and said, "There is a little phoenix inside, but it is incomplete, not complete."

At this time, Li Zhi was also sketching the appearance of the Tao diagram in his mind, sketching out a phoenix with gaps everywhere, with only a pair of claws relatively intact.

As he expected, some fragments of the Phoenix Magic were left in the bloodline of the Emperor's son.

The Immortal Emperor is far more powerful than the Ancient Emperors of the same period, which is probably related to the immortal magic inherited in his blood.

Even though it is impossible to dig out the Immortal King level magic from the bloodline, the inherited magic from the bloodline must surpass the magic of the human realm.

Perhaps the ancient divine scripture left behind by the Immortal Emperor was based on the incomplete Phoenix magic, and after integrating the cultivation methods of this world, it evolved into a powerful cultivation scripture.

Fortunately, he shattered the Taoist diagram in time, otherwise he would have really attracted the Chaos Divine Thunder and would probably have been struck by it.

Although I didn't remember the diagram completely, I remembered most of it, so I gained a lot.

Afterwards, Queen Mother Yao Chi and Saint Yao Chi came to Li Zhi together and asked worriedly, "Changshou, will your actions just now have a negative impact on this fairy egg?"

At this moment, the Stone King no longer released divine light, as if he had turned into a broken stone again.

Li Zhi looked at the stone king whose aura was completely restrained and said, "It has no effect on it, it just got a little scared. It will probably be quiet for a few days. If you want to seal it again, you should be able to seal it now. Do you want Ye Fan to seal it again?"

The Queen Mother of Yao Chi shook her head and said, "It's too late to seal it now. Its aura has already been captured by those ancient royal families. It is estimated that those ancient creatures will come to Yao Chi to claim it soon."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Then I would like to congratulate you, Senior. I think this piece of stone king can be sold for a good price."

Afterwards, the Saintess of Yaochi asked again, "Changshou, why can't we use the Reflection Jade Disk to record that Dao Diagram?"

Li Zhi said: "The inheritance of the immortal way, even if it is incomplete, cannot be recorded by ordinary things. If you have the legendary Immortal Linglong in your hand, and with the help of immortal energy, you can not only record the Dao map completely, but also complete it."

"That's such a pity." said the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.

Sensing that a powerful person was coming this way, Li Zhi said to the Queen Mother of Yaochi and the Saint Girl of Yaochi: "Now that the matter here is over, I will go back and rest first."

Yao Chi Queen Mother said: "You go back and rest. We will take care of the next things."

Afterwards, Ye Fan and Hei Huang also said goodbye and left.

They brought their little girl to Li Zhi's residence.
