205: Chapter 205 Reversal and Rebirth

"You... what exactly are you...?"

Phoenix Nine Heavens trembled violently, her gaze towards Su Mo completely changed.

This was definitely not something an ordinary Human Race Cultivator could do; not only was he not corrupted by the two wills, but he even made them his own.

And Su Mo was merely a Golden Core...

No! Soul Transformation Stage?!

When?!

Could it be that the Lightning Tribulation just now was caused by him?!

Two major Realms... does that mean he directly passed both the Nascent Soul and Soul Transformation Stage Lightning Tribulations at once?

Regarding Phoenix Nine Heavens' shock, Su Mo merely smirked.

"What? Are you scared?"

"Scared?"

Phoenix Nine Heavens' eyes narrowed, and she subconsciously straightened her back.

"This Venerable One has lived for tens of thousands of years and has never seen a Human Race Cultivator like you. Everything that has happened to you defies common sense."

She took a deep breath, her gaze sharp.

"Could it be that you, like the two auras in the Immortal Burial Battlefield, are not from this world?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mo's smile grew wider, carrying an unfathomable meaning.

He neither admitted nor denied it, merely reaching out to caress the Two-Headed Phoenix.

"Is this how you treat your savior? Don't forget, strictly speaking, your current body is one of my Incarnations."

Phoenix Nine Heavens' Mahayana Stage pride and the innate nature of the Phoenix clan caused her body to tremble slightly.

At this moment, the pride etched into her Soul completely overwhelmed her reluctance towards Su Mo's control.

"Human Race Cultivator, this Venerable One does indeed thank you for saving my life, but..."

"If you think you can command this Venerable One as you please, then this Venerable One shall return this shell to you today!"

With that, Nirvana Divine Fire began to surge around her, and in a sea of fire, she resembled a deity born from flames.

This flame was not directed at Su Mo, but was burning herself.

Rather than live in a Human Race shell, it was better to truly undergo Nirvana and live another life.

"The Phoenix clan will never truly die."

Phoenix Nine Heavens' voice, within the flames, was ethereal and vast.

"Death is merely shedding the old shell and embracing new life in the next generation. Perhaps memories will be lost, perhaps power will decline, but that free Soul will never be enslaved!"

She slowly ascended, the scorching flames completely engulfing her, like a true sun.

"Lord Phoenix Ancestor..."

The Golden Tiger Clan Grand Elder wept tears of sorrow, prostrating himself on the ground.

Although he knew Phoenix Nine Heavens was preparing to cultivate anew, witnessing such a scene still filled him with awe and regret.

Su Mo looked at Phoenix Nine Heavens' appearance, without the slightest anger, but instead couldn't help but laugh.

He could have completely stopped Phoenix Nine Heavens' actions, but he didn't.

Such proud beings were the most interesting to train.

"Fierce! Truly worthy of the Phoenix Bloodline!"

Su Mo's voice drew everyone's attention, including Phoenix Nine Heavens in the air.

Phoenix Nine Heavens glanced at Su Mo, as if to engrave his figure deep into her mind.

Then, the Nirvana Divine Fire around Phoenix Nine Heavens burned to its extreme, several Powers of Laws merged within it, and everything transformed into spiritual light, dissipating into the air.

"Farewell, Phoenix Ancestor!"

The Golden Tiger Clan Grand Elder cried, bowing deeply.

The other Elders also bowed their heads, expressing their final respect for this legend.

The air was filled with the melancholy of a hero's twilight and a legend's end.

However, Su Mo stood still, a wicked smile playing on his lips, quietly watching the spiritual light that Phoenix Nine Heavens had transformed into scatter in the air.

Until all the spiritual light had dispersed, and the last bit of Nirvana Divine Fire extinguished.

Su Mo finally moved.

He gently raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.

Family Property Reclamation!

There were no earth-shattering phenomena, no violent fluctuations of Law.

The scattered specks of spiritual light, which had originally dissipated into the heavens and earth, completely returning to the Origin of the world, appeared out of thin air, beginning to converge, as if time was flowing backward.

In the blink of an eye, Phoenix Nine Heavens, who had vanished without a trace, reappeared before everyone.

This scene completely overturned the understanding of everyone present!

The Grand Elder's body trembled, his eyes wide, the extreme sorrow that had been brewing caught in his throat, his expression incredibly complex.

Phoenix Nine Heavens slowly opened her eyes, a hint of confusion in them, and subconsciously murmured to herself.

"This Nirvana... the speed of memory recovery... is a bit fast..."

She only felt that the time her consciousness was immersed in darkness was extremely short, almost negligible, completely lacking the long and Chaos-filled slumber process of her previous Nirvanas.

"Phoenix Ancestor!"

Suddenly, a familiar shout came from below.

Phoenix Nine Heavens looked down, her gaze instantly fixed on the Human Race youth with the wicked smile.

"It's... you?!"

Phoenix Nine Heavens' voice trembled uncontrollably, her Phoenix eyes staring intently at Su Mo.

"What did you do to me?! You... you reversed my Nirvana?!"

This astonished her even more than being forcibly controlled!

Nirvana was the most fundamental and powerful talent of the Phoenix clan, their ultimate means of resisting death and seeking new life.

Yet, it was reversed so effortlessly by the person before her!

Su Mo looked at her shocked face, satisfied, and smiled.

"Without my permission, you can't do anything, including death!"

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding deep within Phoenix Nine Heavens' Divine Soul.

Inability to undergo Nirvana meant she didn't even have the freedom to die.

The Golden Tiger Clan and others felt a chill run down their spines, their gazes towards Su Mo now filled with awe.

Reversing life and death... was this truly something a Cultivator could achieve?

Phoenix Nine Heavens' pupils constricted, then became resolute.

She would self-immolate and undergo Nirvana at an even faster speed.

She refused to believe that there truly existed an ability in this world that could reverse life and death countless times.

That last time, Su Mo must have used some secret technique with a huge price; it was absolutely impossible for it to be without restrictions.

"Caw—!"

A resolute Phoenix cry erupted from Phoenix Nine Heavens' mouth, and even more violent flames suddenly burst forth than before.

Boom!

In an instant, her entire body dissipated into nothingness.

However, facing this sudden scene, not a single ripple appeared on Su Mo's face.

He shook his head, and without waiting for Phoenix Nine Heavens to completely turn into nothingness, he reached out and snapped his fingers again.

Snap!

The sound was very soft.

But in everyone's disbelieving gazes, Phoenix Nine Heavens' figure reappeared, completely unharmed.

Su Mo looked at her eyes, which had lost their brilliance and were now only filled with confusion, slowly stepped forward, and hooked her smooth, fair chin.

"Now, do you understand?"

"From now on, you are immortal."

"Don't worry, I won't force you to do anything. You can use this body as you wish, but..."

"Don't you want to settle accounts with the two people who occupied your original body?"

These words made colors reappear in Phoenix Nine Heavens' eyes.

"You know who the owners of those two auras are?"

Su Mo knew that this proud Phoenix had been mostly tamed.

"Yes, they are deep within the Immortal Burial Battlefield, but I cannot tell you their names."
