Chapter 66 - Rebirth in Flames, Xiao Jiu’s Tier 2 Evolution!

Chapter 66: Rebirth in Flames, Xiao Jiu’s Tier 2 Evolution!

As the simulation time was too short, Wang Ye and Xiao Jiu trained at the side for a while.

Within the few hours that they were waiting, Wang Ye took out the materials for Xiao Jiu’s evolution into the brilliant light sparrow.

This included three stalks of Luoguang herb, half a catty of light pearl powder, six Jinyan fruits, and a section of the Qinglei Peachwood.

They were crushed in sequence and given to Xiao Jiu to either consume or apply to its body.

The last step was to absorb the Scalding Bright Flame.

According to the instructions of Xiao Tao from the Sealed-demon Sword Tomb, Wang Ye had been feeding the Scalding Bright Flame with the Sacred Flame Nether Lotus these days to gradually strengthen and mature it.

If he fed it normally, it would mature in a week. Later on, Wang Ye felt that Xiao Jiu’s skill proficiency was not enough, so he fed it a little slower, only doing it once every few days, so it only matured recently.

However, there was still a certain risk in absorbing it.

There was also a chance of failure in evolution.

When absorbing the Scalding Bright Flame, Xiao Jiu needed to use its peak mastery realm Feather Coat as a defense. Otherwise, if it were to be exposed to even a little of the flame, it would probably be roasted.

For example, the light pearl powder that was smeared on the surface of the body could also reduce the burning effect of the Scalding Bright Flame when it was absorbed.

“Let’s go and inherit the crimson flame phoenix bloodline. With this bloodline, you should be able to absorb 100% of the mere Scalding Bright Flame!” Wang Ye brought Xiao Jiu to the front of the ancient tung tree spirit once again.

“Senior, it has already learned the skill!” he said.

“Hm?” The ancient tung tree spirit, who was taking a nap, let out a light murmuring sound.

Then, it was stunned.

Wait, how long has it been?

Less than half a day?

The ancient tung tree spirit stared at Wang Ye and Xiao Jiu.

Back when the crimson flame phoenix learned this move, it had taken it nearly three days.

Moreover, it had only learned it through its father’s personal teachings, both verbally and through demonstrations.

How could this sparrow learn it so quickly?

Skills and moves were like secret manuals. If a secret manual was imparted to one and one wanted to learn it, one could only rely on one’s comprehension abilities if one didn’t have a Master to teach one.

The difficulty was over the roof.

“I don’t believe it. Can you ask it to use the skill?” The ancient tung tree spirit said in a deep voice.

Wang Ye patted Xiao Jiu, “Go.”

With that, Xiao Jiu flapped its wings and flew to the side, then let out a loud cry.

Following this, its entire body began to emit a faint light.

Then, its body rapidly expanded as if it was under a magnifying glass!

Moreover, this expansion was not just a simple inflating expansion, but a kind of all-round expansion. The energy and aura of every feather on its body were gradually increasing as its size increased!

In just a moment, Xiao Jiu had transformed from a small sparrow that was only 20 centimeters long to more than 30 centimeters!

It looked... although still small, but truly bigger!

This was Free-size.

[Free-size (beginner): Advanced special-type skill. You can change the size of your body according to your will. At the same time, your six dimensions will also increase or decrease according to your changed size. When you increase in size, the six dimensions excluding the soul will increase. The spiritual energy consumption of skills will also increase. Some skills may change. On the other hand, when you decrease in size, the six dimensions excluding the soul will decrease, and the spiritual energy consumption of skills will decrease as well. It can accelerate the recovery of stamina and spiritual energy, but some skills may not be used.]

It was a very powerful support skill, even comparable to Feather Coat.

The difference was that Feather Coat could only improve the six dimensions after reaching the peak mastery realm, while Free-size could do so at the beginner realm, though not as much as Feather Coat. It was just a beginner realm skill, after all.

On top of that, there were different benefits to being bigger or smaller.

“As a small pet, Xiao Jiu should be able to become bigger and carry me in the future,” Wang Ye pondered.

Moreover, since Xiao Jiu had learned this skill, didn’t that mean that he had learned it as well?

If he also had this skill... Wang Ye’s heart pounded. It wouldn’t make sense if he didn’t learn such a powerful skill!

He could get tens of times bigger!

“I can be the future Ultraman.”

Wang Ye was somewhat looking forward to having this skill as well.

He wondered if it could change parts of his body... Of course, Wang Ye felt that he didn’t really need that.

His mind was filled with thoughts of turning into Ultraman and fighting monsters.

After all, which man could refuse the chance to turn into Ultraman?

As Wang Ye’s mind went wild, the ancient tung tree spirit was shocked again.

No way?

Was this sparrow so intelligent?

How could it learn a special-type advanced skill in just a few hours?

The ancient tung tree spirit began doubting its life.

It had taken it several months to learn this skill back then.

Even the crimson flame phoenix took three days!

Yet this sparrow only took a few hours...

In comparison, the crimson flame phoenix back then was like a piece of trash.

Silence.

The ancient tung tree spirit was very silent.

When it had imparted the technique just now, it knew that the green sparrow did not know this move.

Otherwise, the imparting would’ve failed.

“Each generation is stronger than the last...” The ancient tung tree spirit sighed, feeling quite melancholic.

“No, no. Compared to the seniors, it’s still far behind,” Wang Ye hurriedly said, “Epiphany, it’s just epiphany! When it comes to learning, Xiao Jiu definitely can’t compare to the seniors.”

“Alright, I’ll guide the soul of the crimson flame phoenix to bestow the soul fire and bloodline power. Let’s see how much your green sparrow can inherit,” The ancient tung tree spirit gently swayed its branches.

Wang Ye and Xiao Jiu quietly waited.

“Chirp!” Xiao Jiu suddenly cried out and pointed to the top with its wings.

In the next moment, Wang Ye saw that the illusory crimson flame phoenix began to gradually solidify as if it was becoming its true form!

Wang Ye trembled!

A clear and loud cry resounded in the sky.

The enormous might seemed to be able to intimidate beings thousands of miles away. It was vast and mighty, causing the entire Yihuang Forest to rustle and tremble.

Before long, the crimson flame phoenix began to slowly descend while still circling the tree. Its body also became smaller and smaller.

When it landed at the bottom of the flame tung tree, it was as if it had turned into a ball of crimson flame soul. The soul was burning fiercely, and a drop of liquid in the shape of a phoenix was jumping inside.

“It’s here!” The ancient tung tree spirit shouted.

Wang Ye’s heart moved, and he immediately fed the Scalding Bright Flame seed into Xiao Jiu’s mouth, then said, “Go!”

The flame seed began to melt in Xiao Jiu’s mouth, and the Scalding Bright Flame began to burn rapidly from the inside out.

Xiao Jiu let out a cry in pain, and flew up to catch the ball of soul flame that was fused with the bloodline power!

Its entire body was now burning with the Scalding Bright Flame. Fortunately, it had quickly used Feather Coat to wrap around itself, preventing itself from being burned clean by the flames.

Light gradually spread on Xiao Jiu’s entire body.

That was the precursor to evolution.

Then, it came into contact with the soul fire!

Two unique types of flames interweaved. One was red and the other was white. It was as if two huge currents were colliding!

Boom!

In the next moment, a majestic spiritual energy aura suddenly erupted!

Xiao Jiu turned into a dazzling light and began to evolve while being burned by the Scalding Bright Flame!

Wang Ye stared at it closely. The light was dazzling, but he didn’t blink!

At this moment, the two flames interweaved and formed a huge flaming light cocoon, completely enveloping Xiao Jiu within.

“Hm, this is... the crimson flame phoenix’s Rebirth from Flames, it’s the Nirvana Evolution! To think it could inherit this... This green sparrow’s potential has been recognized by the crimson flame phoenix,” The ancient tung tree spirit muttered.

Wang Ye said in his heart, “This is the evolution that I have simulated more than three hundred times. It’s not some Nirvana Evolution...”

However, from the looks of it, Xiao Jiu should have inherited some of the crimson flame phoenix’s power.

It had fused with it.

Time passed minute by minute. Wang Ye’s eyes grew sore as he watched. He didn’t know how much time had passed.

Until at a certain moment, a huge bird-shaped virtual image suddenly flashed from the flaming cocoon!

It was bright and magnificent, holy and pure!

Bang!

The evolution was successful!

Not long after, the light cocoon exploded, and a bird that was flashing with flames flew out...
