409. Feng Ling’s Bloodline Returns to its Ancestral Lineage


    Lin Fei took out a porcin bottle containing the phoenix''s bloodline inside the Feng family''s secret chamber. This was the genuine blood of a true phoenix, incredibly precious.


    In reality, Lin Fei already possessed the bloodline of a Flood Dragon within him, which even contained a trace of the true dragon''s blood. Hence, he could be considered to have the bloodline of a true dragon. However, the bloodlines within Lin Fei''s body were diverse. Yet, what bloodline to cultivate was entirely Lin Fei''s decision.


    Lin Fei had no intention of cultivating the Phoenix bloodline. It wasn''t necessary. By cultivating the phoenix bloodline, he wasn''t confident that he could perfect it. And a bloodline he couldn''t perfect was of no use to him.


    This was different for Feng Ling. She inherently possessed the Phoenix bloodline. Now, with the blood of the true phoenix, she aimed to reinforce her bloodline and attempt to trace it back to its roots. Cultivating the Phoenix bloodline from scratch wasn''t easy. It wasn''t something that could be perfected just by integrating any Divine Ability.


    However, although Lin Fei wasn''t cultivating the phoenix bloodline, it didn''t mean it was useless to him. On the contrary, it had a significant purpose – to be fused with his body and enhance its foundation. Especially given the phoenix''s ability to rejuvenate through fire, an ability many would covet.


    In some sense, this ability was akin to immortality. However, Lin Fei spected that every time the phoenix rejuvenated, a new consciousness would emerge. Even if the power remained consistent, the consciousness would differ. Many might desire such "eternal life", but not Lin Fei. True immortality, in his eyes, must be governed by his own consciousness. Without that, what difference was there between such existence and death?


    Pouring out the phoenix''s blood from the bottle, an invisible force seemed to support it.


    "Fuse!" Lin Feimanded. His body rapidly absorbed the phoenix bloodline, incorporating it along with the Flood Dragon''s bloodline and others.


    As the phoenix bloodline merged, Lin Fei''s physical body enhanced at a visibly rapid pace. It was continuously evolving and had never stagnated. Having now integrated the phoenix bloodline, the transformation of Lin Fei''s body would speed up.


    Moreover, the Phoenix bloodline wasn''t entirely useless for other bloodlines within Lin Fei. At least for those of the fire attribute, it still held a minor influence.


    For instance, the Triple Yin True Fire Bloodline would be slightly strengthened. However, the enhancement wasn''t significant. Yet, if Lin Fei wanted to cultivate another fire-attribute bloodline in the future, the process would be much more efficient.


    For the time being, the phoenix bloodline could only enhance the foundation of Lin Fei''s physical body, undergoing a gradual transformation. As time ticked away, Lin Fei patiently waited.


    In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days passed. Lin Fei met Feng Ling once again. At this moment, he could distinctly sense that she looked radiant. Her aura seemed to be strengthening continuously, with a unique hint of a real phoenix, though not as intense. Lin Fei realized that Feng Ling must have achieved a significant breakthrough.


    "Congrattions, Feng Ling!" He said. "I presume you''ve refined the phoenix bloodline and sessfully reverted it to its ancestral form?"


    "Indeed, and I owe it all to you, Lin Fei," Feng Ling replied. "Without you, how could I have obtained the Phoenix bloodline? Now that my bloodline has sessfully reverted, I await the same for all the other bloodlines within me. In at most a year, I''ll attempt to ascend to Martial Gods."


    Her eyes sparkled with ambition. For so many years, the entire Feng family had waited for someone who could potentially challenge the Martial Gods realm. Although having a reverted bloodline provided an opportunity, whether one could be a Martial God was still uncertain.


    "Lin Fei, over these twenty days, my Feng family managed to gather three hundred ice-attribute Divine Abilities. In total, we have 318 ice-attribute Divine Abilities. If that''s insufficient, we can continue collecting, though it might take more time," she offered.


    Lin Fei''s eyes lit up. "Your kindness is deeply appreciated, Feng Ling."


    "As long as you''re satisfied, Lin Fei. Should you require anything, please don''t hesitate to notify me," she responded.


    With that, Feng Ling hastily retreated to meditate. She needed time to consolidate the potent, reverted Phoenix bloodline. Even for someone as advanced as her, it would take time to familiarize and streamline the newfound power. However, she now had a chance to challenge the Martial Gods, whereas Lin Fei still had a long way to go.


    "First, I''ll integrate the three hundred ice-attribute Divine Abilities into the Annihtion Frost Bloodline," Lin Fei decided. He then entered his secluded chamber. His Annihtion Frost Bloodline had only been at a beginner''s stage. With the help of the Feng family, he managed to collect over three hundred ice-attribute Divine Abilities in a short period, which pleased him.


    After Feng Ling departed, an elder of the Feng family spoke with concern, "n leader, you''ve now acquired the phoenix bloodline. Once the bloodline reverts to its ancestral form, it will certainly alert that king-level exotic beast. Why not ask the Ancient Origin Saber King for assistance? With his intervention, we might stand a chance against that beast."


    However, Feng Ling shook her head.


    "Thest time Ancient Origin Saber King aided us, it was merely due to a trade, enabling us to collect the three hundred ice-attribute Divine Abilities. If the king-level exotic beast attacks, what can we offer the Ancient Origin Saber King in exchange?


    Don''t assume that just because he helped us once, he will do so again. Some matters we must face on our own. Besides, with my bloodline reverted, even if I don''t challenge the Martial Gods, my strength has greatly increased. Why should I fear that peacock?"


    A glint of coldness shed in Feng Ling''s eyes. The "peacock" she referred to was the Peacock King, a pinnacle king-level exotic beast. Peacocks share an intimate connection with phoenixes.


    The Feng family, possessing the phoenix bloodline, was already resented by the Peacock King. Yet, due to the absence of a reverted bloodline, the Peacock King hadn''t truly acted against the Feng family.


    Now that Feng Ling''s bloodline had reverted, it was as potent as a young, genuine phoenix. How could the Peacock King let it go? It was likely he would attack soon. However, this time, Feng Ling was resolute: she must confront the Peacock King herself.


    "But..." The elder tried to interject.


    Feng Ling waved him off, "Enough. I need to meditate. Leave."


    "Yes, n leader." The elder departed, muttering to himself, "Our Feng family only has the n leader as the Martial King. Even though she has a chance to ascend to Martial Gods after the bloodline reversion, sess isn''t guaranteed. We cannot allow the Peacock King to disturb her at this critical juncture."


    Gritting his teeth, the elder seemed to make up his mind and quickly left the ce.
