The Phoenix is already a top-tier soul beast race.
Moreover, a undead transformed from a phoenix is an exceptionally rare breed, one in ten thousand.
In terms of talent, the undead phoenix is definitely among the most outstanding of all undead.
However, even such an undead phoenix would struggle to protect itself against the Heavenly Tribulation, let alone other undead.
Quan Yi had also experienced the baptism of countless lightning tribulations and deeply understood the power of the Heavenly Tribulation.
To safely pass through nine Heavenly Tribulations at the ten-thousand-year stage is no different from ascending to heaven.
Finding a ninety-thousand-year undead phoenix was already considered very lucky; to continue searching for a hundred-thousand-year-level undead soul beast was, frankly, quite unrealistic.
Although they would not give up searching, it did not mean they would abandon the opportunity right in front of them.
Having witnessed Huo Wu's transformation, it was now Quan Yi's turn.
Three days later.
The King of the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtles faced Quan Yi on the stone platform.
The second sacrificial ritual was about to begin.
The old turtle's shell shimmered under the sunlight.
The thick mud covering the turtle shell was completely worn away when the shield skill was activated.
Compared to other Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtles, the old turtle's gold-beryl shell displayed even more brilliant colors.
Based on Quan Yi's understanding of metals, the material of this metal turtle shell was extremely outstanding, and under the tempering of the internal flames, it contained no impurities.
Even more rare was that the old turtle's shell possessed a more profound sense, a characteristic aura that only metal could produce, with which Quan Yi was very familiar.
Turtle shells are made of their own bones and keratin, and even for Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtles, this remained unchanged.
This also meant that turtles and their shells were naturally connected by blood.
Although the spirituality of the metal turtle shell did not even reach the level of spirit infusion, the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtle used its innate ability to temper the shell to a higher level of strength.
Unfortunately, it had already completed 'master recognition'; otherwise, Quan Yi would have really wanted to keep the shell to create another artifact comparable to the Dragon and Phoenix Heart.
The old turtle felt a little uneasy under Quan Yi's meaningful gaze.
"Um, can we start?"
"Ah, sorry, let's begin."
If it were before, Quan Yi certainly would not have had the余裕 to think about other things.
However, now it was different; both he and Huo Wu's strength had greatly increased, and they had a thorough understanding of the sacrifice.
This also meant that Quan Yi had a greater grasp of the sacrificial ritual.
Dragon-Phoenix True Eyes, activate.
This time, the mental fusion between Quan Yi and Huo Wu was vastly different from three days ago.
The intensity and deterrent force of the mental fluctuations far exceeded those of three days ago.
While there was certainly an increase in quantity, the main improvement was in the level of quality.
Huo Wu's mental power had greatly increased under the amplification of the hundred-thousand-year soul ring, but the main reason was that the fusion degree of the two's martial souls had reached one hundred percent.
After a deeper level of spiritual exchange, Huo Wu and Quan Yi had reached a one hundred percent fusion degree psychologically.
However, at the martial soul level, Huo Wu still had some shortcomings.
And the seventh soul ring three days ago happened to be the last piece of the puzzle to fill the gap.
The mental power fusion now displayed was just the tip of the iceberg.
The massive amount of information brought by the omniscient perspective flooded Quan Yi's brain, but unlike three days ago, Quan Yi could feel that the burden on his brain had become lighter.
"In the current state, perhaps I can try something new today."
A thought flashed through Quan Yi's mind.
The old turtle took one last look at the world, his eyes fixed on Quan Yi.
"I am betting everything on you; I hope you will not let me down."
With a cry to the sky, a red light burst forth.
The sacrificial ritual officially began.
The old turtle's body transformed into deep red light points and floated into Quan Yi's body.
But today, Quan Yi planned to try using his own mental power to replace the soul beast's soul, perfectly realizing the sacrificial ritual.
Through two sacrifices and the observation of the Dragon-Phoenix True Eyes, Quan Yi's brain had completely understood the entire process of the sacrificial ritual.
Theoretically, he had already deduced it in his mind, and even specially consulted soul beasts on how to drive the sacrifice.
However, due to insufficient mental power, Quan Yi did not dare to try it easily.
To replace the soul beast's soul, the prerequisite was that he had to separate mental power equivalent to that of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.
Previously, the two did not have much surplus, but after Huo Wu absorbed the soul ring of the Azure Smoke King, a powerful hundred-thousand-year-level soul emerged in her body.
The extra mental power that the Azure Smoke King could provide would greatly make up for the lack of mental power.
"Everyone, can you lend me your mental power?"
Quan Yi's voice echoed in the mental sea of the two.
The Flame Dragon King, Wutong, and the Azure Smoke King responded in unison:
"As you wish!"
Three hundred-thousand-year-level mental forces merged together through the mental sea of the two.
Quan Yi and Huo Wu became the bridge, merging all mental power together.
In an instant, the mental power content of the two skyrocketed several times.
In this way, in addition to the mental power used to grasp the soul, Quan Yi had more surplus.
Dual-minded.
Quan Yi decisively separated a part of his mental power and took over the entire body.
Although Quan Yi's mental power was not very compatible with the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtle's energy, his mental power level was higher, and he could use 'brute force' to offset the rejection and forcibly control the energy.
Quan Yi drove his mental power, controlled the out-of-control soul beast energy.
According to the experience taught by other soul beasts, Quan Yi took over from the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtle, controlling the sacrifice to get on track.
A deep red soul ring emerged, covering the dark gold Yang Dragon Claw on Quan Yi's right fist.
Unlike the pain of the previous time, after the energy of the soul ring entered Quan Yi's body, it directly transformed into a softer energy, greatly enhancing Quan Yi's various physical attributes.
Unlike the Flame Dragon King, the energy of the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtle contained extremely rich vitality.
They were like gentle hands, soothing Quan Yi's body.
This year, water pressure, vibration, and lightning tribulation had repeatedly ravaged Quan Yi's body, and unconsciously, his body had accumulated a lot of fatigue.
Sea turtles, also known as hawksbill turtles, are known for their extremely long lifespans; if it were not for the obstacle of their lifespan limit, their clan could have lived even longer.
And the large amount of lifespan remaining in the old turtle's body transformed into pure vitality, enhancing Quan Yi's life origin.
Of course, Quan Yi was not completely immersed in this feeling.
The body of the Gold-Beryl Furnace Flame Turtle had completely transformed into deep red energy crystals, and even the hard gold-beryl turtle shell had turned into energy.
"Crack!"
In the next instant, the crystal shattered, and a left arm bone emitting gold-beryl light emerged, and then, under Quan Yi's control, the soul bone turned into energy and drilled into his left arm.
