Chapter 228 Ji Meng's Choice

After taking the soul ball, Zhao Mu immediately applied a sealing formation to it.

Even if a strong person who has overcome the tribulation loses his body, he cannot take it lightly. If he is given a slight chance, Xun Tianzun may escape, and it will only take a short time to regain his strength.

Zhao Mu roughly searched for Xuntianzun's soul with his golden eyes, but he was very tightly guarded. There seemed to be a thick layer of dharma on the soul's surface, making it impossible for Zhao Mu's golden eyes to see through completely.

Zhao Mu took out a box to put the soul ball in, put it into a separate storage ring, and ignored her for the time being.

At this time, Ji Meng and a group of little phoenixes were surrounding Longling Tiana, looking at her with vigilant and curious eyes.

Ji Meng seemed to have a hard time imagining that the person they suppressed before was the red-haired, beautiful and heroic woman in front of him.

"Sister Ji Meng, don't worry. The power of trickery has been removed from Long Ling's body, and she is no longer in harm's way."

Hearing Zhao Mu's words, Ji Meng relaxed slightly.

The mission of their family is to resist the harm caused by the coming of deception. If the power of deception has been eliminated, then this girl will no longer be considered their enemy.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Xue who made her even more curious.

"Can you eliminate the power of deception?"

"With my current strength, low-concentration treacherous energy can carry out annihilation reactions, but there is nothing I can do to deal with high-concentration treacherous energy." Zhao Xue glanced at Zhao Mu, and after receiving his affirmative look, he turned to Ji Respond to dream questions.

After hearing this, Ji Meng became more and more interested in Zhao Xue.

She guessed that Zhao Xue's identity must not be simple. If she helps, then the Phoenix clan will definitely have divine help in their great cause of fighting against the evil ways.

And Zhao Xue is Zhao Mu’s goddaughter.

In this way, surrendering to Zhao Mu seemed to be a feasible strategy.

"Don't worry about this for now, let's talk about it after we go up."

Wu Miaomiao and the high priest are still waiting above, and they don't know if they have met Xun Tianzun before.

Just as she was about to leave, Tiana came to Zhao Xue, leaned into her ear and said something.

Zhao Xue nodded, then disappeared in a flash.

A moment later, Zhao Xue appeared again, walked up to Zhao Mu, and handed a bright prismatic crystal to Zhao Mu.

"Father, this is the origin of the dragon crystal left after Tiana's death. Although most of the energy has been exhausted, there is still a lot of power left, which should be used to strengthen father's heavenly fire."

Zhao Mu was stunned: "You even know that I have the Heavenly Fire?"

"I can feel the power related to the origin."

"What exactly is the origin you are talking about?"

"The origin is the essence of matter. After removing the appearance, quality, and energy level, the core and most real inner part, such as the soul and the laws, can be counted as the origin."

Zhao Mu didn't understand what he was hearing and didn't dwell on it.

He harvested the dragon crystal and sacrificed the fire from heaven at the same time.

The heavenly fire immediately wrapped the dragon crystal and began to absorb it bit by bit.

It's really okay.

However, the absorption efficiency is very slow, just like candy in ice water, it can be integrated into the water, but it takes a long time.

Zhao Mu was not in a hurry, just waited slowly.

"Tiana, thank you very much." Zhao Mu said.

Tiana lowered her head shyly: "Master, you don't have to be polite. This dragon crystal is of no use to me anyway, and it would be a waste to keep it here."

What a good girl.

It was really hard to connect with the voice I heard before.

Even if he died once, his personality wouldn't have changed that much.

Or is it that this girl was thwarted by Heaven and her psychology changed?

Shortly after.

Zhao Mu and his party returned to the Phoenix Nest.

The high priest and his entourage were still waiting. When they saw Zhao Mu, they immediately knelt down to pay homage.

Zhao Mu ignored it and walked straight over to the Phoenix Nest to have further negotiations with Ji Meng.

Now Ji Meng has probably agreed to lead his tribe to surrender to Zhao Mu, but the details still need to be discussed.

This is the top priority right now.

Once these twenty or so little phoenixes surrender to their sect, the strength of the Holy Yuan Demon Sect will increase greatly, and countless demon cultivators who are related to the Phoenix clan will also flock to the Holy Yuan Demon Sect. This is another wave of development opportunities.

But there are also disadvantages.

That would completely anger the Dragon Clan.

The battle between dragons and phoenixes is the general trend of the demon clan. In the Forest of Ten Thousand Monsters, the phoenix clan has very little power left, but Zhao Mu suddenly recruited twenty Nirvana Phoenixes who had disappeared for many years. The dragon clan definitely cannot sit idly by and ignore this matter. There may be retaliation against the Holy Yuan Demon Sect.

However, with the current strength of the Demon Sect, it is still unable to withstand the Dragon Clan's frontal declaration of war.

Therefore, after recruiting these twenty Nirvana Phoenixes, whether to take them to the Holy Yuan Demon Sect and whether to make a high-profile announcement after they go is a matter worthy of discussion.

But Zhao Mu himself didn't care much about this.

Just a few more enemies, no big deal.

But Ji Meng still has to make the decision on this matter. After all, she needs to be responsible for her people.

After some discussion and careful consideration, Ji Meng stood in front of Zhao Mu.

"Mr. Zhao, I have made a decision. My tribe and I are willing to obey all your arrangements, even if the Nirvana Phoenix Clan is exposed to the eyes of the world again. I believe that under the leadership of Mr. Zhao, Our Phoenix Clan’s mission will eventually be accomplished!”

Zhao Mu nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, pack up your belongings and follow me."

"Okay, Mr. Zhao, I will inform the tribesmen right now. I am afraid that I will never come back here again. I will move away everything that can be moved. It may take some time, so please wait."

"I'll wait for you on the ground."

Afterwards, Zhao Mu took Xiaoxue, Tiana, and the high priest and left the Phoenix Nest and returned to the Flame Mountain.

After going out, Zhao Mu first found Wu Miaomiao and confirmed that she was safe before he felt relieved.

"Where is Hua Jinsheng?" Zhao Mu asked curiously when he didn't see the chipmunk.

"What about that mouse? It's too cowardly. It said before that it felt a terrifying breath approaching, and then it disappeared without a trace with a whoosh. I'm not afraid at all. I eat and drink as I should, because I believe that with the master here, there will be absolutely no big problems."

Wu Miaomiao laughed and flattered him in various ways.

Zhao Mu rubbed her head: "Why are you so heartless? If you really encounter danger, you should run away. Master may be delayed and can't take care of you."

"Hehe, then I also believe that with Master's good luck, I will definitely be able to turn danger into safety."

Good guy, this little disciple's flattery skills are getting stronger and stronger.

Whoosh.

With a breeze, Hua Jinsheng appeared in the air boat again.

"I was scared to death. How could a tribulation cultivator suddenly appear in this ghost place? Fortunately, you didn't meet him, otherwise you would be finished."

"Is this the tribulation cultivator you are talking about?"

Zhao Mu smiled and took out Xun Tianzun's soul ball and shook it in front of Hua Jinsheng.

Hua Jinsheng's eyes were instantly wide open, and his expression was so shocked.
