#140 - Chapter 140: Conquering the Most Powerful Woman of All Time
Seeing Jiang Ning's tense posture, the stunning woman in red chuckled softly, "No need to be nervous."
"I have no intention of attacking you."
"If you had taken the 'Nirvana Emperor Scripture' and the 'Divine Phoenix Secret Canon,' you would have been courting death."
"Fortunately, you were sensible and didn't choose those two items."
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor withdrew her pressure, her expression becoming much gentler.
Jiang Ning retracted the Ten Heavenly Sanctuaries and the Violet Lightning Sword, and said, "Since you have no intention of attacking, why did you summon me to meet you?"
He didn't believe that the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor would summon him for no reason.
"Wang Youning is a person of great fortune, destined to be an unrivaled and peerless figure in the future."
"Such a brilliant and talented woman should have a young prodigy to accompany her, traveling the world and facing the great calamity together."
"I noticed she has some affection for you, so I summoned you to see if you are qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with her."
"You are quite good; perhaps you may even surpass me in the future."
"If I were still a maiden, I would definitely choose you as my companion."
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor smiled, no longer as aloof and unapproachable as before.
Jiang Ning was stunned.
He thought to himself, 'My charm is too great, isn't it? She even wants to throw herself into my arms?'
At this moment, the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor stared at Jiang Ning with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Jiang Ning felt a chill, as if his inner thoughts had been seen through.
"Heroes love beauty, and beauty admires heroes; it's a matter of course."
"Don't have so many distracting thoughts; I have no interest in little men."
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor smiled and revealed a hint of playfulness.
This made Jiang Ning smile awkwardly, retorting, "Women will only affect my cultivation speed; I'm not interested."
"What do you mean?" The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor was taken aback, looking at Jiang Ning with confusion.
"No… it means nothing." Jiang Ning shook his head.
"Aren't you still alive?"
"Even if there is a great calamity as you say, you can deal with it yourself. Why look for a successor to face the calamity?"
Jiang Ning changed the subject.
"No." The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor shook her head. "I am already considered a dead person."
Jiang Ning was stunned.
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor said, "This is the wonder of the Nirvana Emperor Scripture; it can maintain a living-dead body, but I can only stay in the True Phoenix Palace and cannot go out."
"Only after I complete the fourth Nirvana can I return to this world."
"Doesn't the Nirvana Emperor Scripture only have three Nirvanas?" Jiang Ning blurted out.
"Hmm?" The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor frowned slightly. "How do you know there are only three Nirvanas?"
"I… I overheard it outside." Jiang Ning said.
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor was just curious, but she didn't ask further, explaining.
"The fourth Nirvana technique was created by me after I became a living-dead, spending tens of thousands of years."
"However, I have never been able to grasp the mysteries within and complete the fourth Nirvana rebirth."
Theoretical things are relatively easy to create.
However, the difficulty of actual cultivation is very high.
This has resulted in many techniques and divine abilities whose founders have not cultivated to the highest realm.
"Tell me the technique for the fourth Nirvana, and perhaps I can help you."
"However, if I help you solve the cultivation problem, you will owe me a favor."
Jiang Ning said suddenly.
With the Instant Learning cheat in hand, there is no technique he cannot learn.
The reason for choosing to help the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor cultivate the fourth Nirvana is twofold.
First, he can get the fourth Nirvana technique for free.
The fourth Nirvana rebirth ability made Jiang Ning extremely envious.
Second, he can make the entire Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor owe him a favor.
The favor of such an unparalleled powerhouse is still very valuable.
At that time, he might even be able to subdue her and have her join his Great Xia or Heavenly Gate.
This is a deal that only makes a profit.
"Oh?" The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor smiled. "What qualifications do you have to help me solve cultivation problems?"
Jiang Ning said confidently, "I am able to break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm before the age of thirty. Such talent is unmatched throughout the ages."
"Any technique in my hands can be successfully cultivated with just a glance."
"There is no one like me in this world."
Jiang Ning held his head high, as if he held the sun and moon in his hands and controlled the universe with his feet, full of flamboyant confidence.
"Giggle." Jiang Ning's boasting completely amused the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor, and she covered her mouth and laughed.
"Alright, I'll let you try."
"If you really succeed, you will owe me a great favor."
Perhaps finding Jiang Ning very interesting, the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor agreed.
She stretched out her slender and fair jade hand, pointing lightly, and condensed a mysterious scripture.
The scripture recorded the technique for the fourth Nirvana.
Jiang Ning took it and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down."
"Little fellow, you are quite confident." The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor smiled especially brightly.
"A man cannot say he can't do it in front of a woman; that is a big taboo."
Jiang Ning stopped talking nonsense, seemingly pretending to immerse his mind in the scripture, comprehending the fourth Nirvana.
In fact, he was waiting for the Instant Learning cheat to complete its cooldown the next day.
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor did not disturb Jiang Ning, sitting cross-legged beside him, watching his serious comprehension with a smile.
Feeling it was quite interesting.
However, in her heart, she did not believe that Jiang Ning could help her solve the problem.
She just wanted to strike at Jiang Ning, this genius, and let him be frustrated, so she let him try.
Her own talent is unparalleled, suppressing an era.
She spent tens of thousands of years and still could not comprehend the final step of the mystery.
How could this little fellow be able to comprehend it overnight?
Time quickly passed to the next day.
The Instant Learning cheat completed its cooldown.
[You carefully watched the Fourth Nirvana Heart Sutra, triggering the Instant Learning cheat, and comprehended the highest realm of Nirvana Rebirth!]
At this moment, Jiang Ning successfully comprehended the fourth Nirvana of the Nirvana Emperor Scripture, Nirvana Rebirth!
From now on, if he really encounters danger, he can still rely on the fourth Nirvana to be reborn.
Moreover, with each additional Nirvana of the Nirvana Emperor Scripture, his essence, energy, and spirit will be sublimated once.
Jiang Ning has only learned the Nirvana Emperor Scripture and undergone Nirvana for now, and has not yet found a suitable opportunity.
Jiang Ning put down the scripture, a smile on his face, "I have already helped you solve the problem of the final step of the mystery."
"You really comprehended it, the problem that even I could not successfully cultivate?"
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor looked at Jiang Ning in astonishment.
Jiang Ning didn't waste any more words, he explained the problem of the final step of cultivation to the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor.
Half a day later.
The Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor looked at Jiang Ning with an extremely shocked and unbelievable expression.
Under Jiang Ning's explanation, she finally understood the final step of cultivation.
"Your talent has completely conquered me. All the geniuses I have seen in my life combined are not as good as you."
At this moment, the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Emperor looked at Jiang Ning with sparkling eyes.
This little fellow has actually become the first man to conquer her.
