Chapter 44: The Six-Headed Fire Phoenix.
Everyone knew that Xiao Fei, with his personality, would definitely pursue something once he was determined to do it.
So, the dean led everyone to his secret training chamber. Under the gaze of the crowd, Xiao Fei summoned his martial spirit and swallowed the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent's inner core in one gulp.
In truth, Xiao Fei had been deeply conflicted about whether to absorb this inner core. First, throughout the Douluo Dalu universe, treasures like pearl inner cores were considered incredibly powerful.
Second, the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent clearly didn't conform to the Douluo world's spirit beast rules.
It could be said that it had already surpassed spirit beasts, a being of a higher level. Absorbing this inner core could potentially bring unimaginable benefits.
Finally, in the original novel, Ma Hongjun was able to absorb this spirit ring with the help of Tang San and Ning Rongrong, while he had no other help.
However, his current physical fitness was far superior to Ma Hongjun's. Four highly aged spirit bones had given him a physical fitness far superior to that of an average person. Furthermore, his body had been transformed by the Slaughter City, making it even more formidable.
Xiao Fei focused his mind and began to absorb the spirit ring. As the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent's inner core entered his body, it instantly melted within him. Its power instantly transformed into a crimson flame, consuming Xiao Fei's entire body, including his spirit.
Fortunately, Xiao Fei had now reached the Ultimate Flame, and his Phoenix Flame possessed a certain suppressive effect against all other flames in the world.
Using his own meditation techniques, Xiao Fei guided the flames throughout his body. Instantly, his entire body glowed crimson, and traces of blood flowed along his skin, mingled with orange flames.
Gradually, an orange fireball formed around Xiao Fei, continuously burning his body and his Fire Phoenix spirit, as if forging something.
Within the fireball, Xiao Fei and his spirit seemed to be forged by the flames, consuming every cell and every element of his being. The area surrounding the fireball had already been reduced to a charred black.
Huo Wu covered her mouth and asked, "Grandpa, how's Xiaofei now?"
Dean Huo replied, "Xiaofei's condition has stabilized for now, and he shouldn't be in any danger."
Xiaofei, trapped in the fireball, endured three days of calcination. Gradually, a massive spirit ring appeared around the fire phoenix, gradually transforming from its initial white to yellow, purple, dark purple, and finally, a deep black.
Finally, when the flames surrounding Xiaofei completely vanished, a deep black spirit ring formed around the fire phoenix. The fire phoenix itself transformed, sprouting five more heads in addition to its original one.
The fire phoenix let out a long cry, and a phoenix flame burst forth from the training room, painting the entire sky above Blazing Fire Academy a fiery crimson.
A gigantic phoenix appeared in the sky. All the fire-attributed spirit masters nearby seemed overcome with a throbbing urge to worship the fire phoenix, like thousands of flames gracing the sky.
Xiaofei himself had lost considerable weight, his black hair scorched a fiery red, and his eyes seemed to take on a tinge of gold, as if a deep spiritual enlightenment had been achieved.
Huo Wu ran over, hugged Xiao Fei, and said, "Xiao Fei, how are you feeling now?"
Xiao Fei smiled and said, "Very good. I feel very comfortable and stronger than ever before."
Xiao Fei summoned his Fire Phoenix spirit, and everyone around him instantly felt a sense of suppression. It was like a higher-level spirit suppressing a lower-level spirit.
Xiao Fei carefully felt his own spirit, and it seemed to have a hint of divinity in it, exerting a natural suppressive force on fire-attributed spirits and beast patterns. It also felt like his spirit had not yet entered its final form.
The current Fire Phoenix should be considered a quasi-god-level spirit. When it transforms into a ten-headed fire phoenix, it will be the time when the spirit enters the god-level.
Xiao Fei's soul power has reached an astonishing level of 64. Of course, this includes both the sixth soul ring, which is infinitely close to a 100,000-year soul ring, and the soul power accumulated by Xiao Fei in the past two years.
At the same time, Xiao Fei's phoenix transformation has also developed further. Now Xiao Fei can also transform his torso into a phoenix, but his head cannot be transformed into a phoenix yet.
In terms of strength, Xiao Fei can already challenge an eight-ringed soul douluo alone. In the entire Blazing Academy, no one is Xiao Fei's opponent except the dean.
Xiao Fei's sixth soul skill is called Phoenix Slash. He can gather his strength in his right claw and release a flaming slash. The slash is accompanied by a powerful phoenix flame essence that can burn and cut everything, ignoring all obstacles.
The flame will never go out, physical defense is invalid, and energy defense is reduced by 50%. The attack range is linked to Xiao Fei's use of soul power.
Xiao Fei's first impression was that this soul skill was incredibly powerful, and his second was that its development ceiling was incredibly high. In the original novel, Xiao Fei's favorite character was Jian Dao Chen Xin, the Sword Douluo.
If he could master the principles behind this slashing attack, wouldn't he be able to use his claws as blades, unleashing similar sword or saber energy? That would be fun.
Xiao Fei then resumed his normal academy life: reading, exercising, cultivating his soul power, and occasionally sparring with Huo Lie. Life had become leisurely for a while, and Xiao Fei decided to relax.
These days, Xiao Fei and Huo Wu were enjoying a wonderful time, often living in their own little world. Huo Wushuang, who used to be with them, had been kicked out by Huo Wu to train.
They trained together, read together, played together, and even went shopping together. Xiao Fei and Huo Wu's relationship quickly blossomed, and they were now holding hands.
Blazing Fire Academy had recently become one of the hottest spots in the entire Douluo Continent. Ever since the phoenix flames filled the sky that day, rumors had spread that a remarkable talent had emerged. Dean Huo Tianchen announced that he had reached level 93, an astonishing speed.
Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang of Blazing Academy have now reached level 66 and 65, respectively.
Huo Wu is only 22 years old, making her the youngest Soul Emperor in history. Huo Wushuang, at 24, has already reached level 65, earning her a worldwide reputation.
They are now known as the Blazing Twin Stars, poised to surpass the former Haotian Twin Stars.
Huo Wu is considered the foremost of the younger generation, a true darling of heaven. Furthermore, her beauty has attracted countless admirers, and marriage proposals are lining up in droves.
Direct disciples from the three major sects have approached her, but Huo Wu has flatly rejected them all.
Even Crown Prince Xue Qinghe has approached, but unfortunately, neither side has even met. Faced with the relentless harassment, Huo Wu has laid out her conditions: only those stronger than herself will be willing to date her, and they must marry into the Blazing Academy and cultivate the fire element.
With these demands, many people flock to her.
Of course, more people are seeking friendship.
