The Immortal Fire

Chapter 09: The Seals That Start to Fragile

Zhou Li immediately approached Liu Ying and Jia Li, their conditions were very alarming. Liu Ying was in a body full of wounds and kept shouting while holding his head, while Jia Li was deathly pale in shock at the events that had befallen them.

"Liu 'er! She ... What happened to her?" Zhou Li brought the body of Liu Ying from Jia Li.

Jia Li directly ran to the back of a tree and vomited out all of his entrails.

Fang Yao sat himself on the ground with the help of several other disciples, "Chairman Zhou, he's been like this ever since ..."

Fang Yao was overwhelmed with immense guilt, even though he was the one responsible for the incident that almost claimed the lives of the three of them. If only Fang Yao had not invited the two girls out of the Clan, perhaps this sort of thing would not have happened.

"Liu'er, he who had killed all the robbers there, he slaughtered them without mercy." actually Fang Yao had a hard time believing it.

Zhou Li and Mu Yi's mouth was wide open, they had seen the condition of the robbers corpse in a terrible state, he looked at Liu Ying with a feeling of fear.

"What?! Don't-don't... "

"Arrrghhhh!!" Liu Ying groaned loudly, his eyes reddened and continued to thrash.

Zhou Li told the four senior disciples to hold onto Liu Ying's arms and legs. He examined the nape or back of Liu Ying's neck, revealing an elongated black line that had not yet been perfectly formed.

"Seals ... The seal is already weakened, but how can it be?" murmured Zhou Li slowly.

Fang Yao looked curious at Zhou Li's expression which he thought was very strange after seeing Liu Ying's neck, yet he did not ask and preferred to be quiet.

"Bring Ying Gu Niang back to the Sect!" mu Yi's orders to those first-rate senior disciples.

They immediately carried Liu Ying to return. Fang Yao was swept away by Zhou Li, while Jia Li was being held by Mu Yi.

Shortly after they reached the Clan, everyone seemed shocked to see the three boys that Mu Yi and Zhou Li had brought home in a state of bloodstain.

The Junior disciples, second generation and senior disciples who had not participated in the search for the three brats gawked at their circumstances.

All the sword Elders of the Golden Lotus Clan also flocked to watch Zhou Li's arrival with Liu Ying, Fang Yao and Jia Li.

Zhou Li immediately shouted as he reached the gate, "Call Chairman Cheng! Tell me something's urgent."

A few disciples instantly rushed to look for Xi Guan in his personal space, before long the old man came out.

Xi Guan was immediately startled to see something he had gotten in plain sight, "Chairman Zhou! What's going on exactly?!"

"The story is long, we should just talk inside" Zhou Li said with an irregular breath.

The woman told the disciples to escort Jia Li and Fang Yao to Physician Yu, while Liu Ying was led by Zhou Li to Xi Guan's private room.

Liu Ying was already in a state of unconsciousness while on the way, Zhou Li pressed his acupuncture sensitive nerve point on the chest, lest the girl squawk and ease her into being transported back to the Clan.

Zhou Li treated and bandaged the entire wound on Liu Ying's body, he found it hard to believe that the power of the Phoenix Soul Spirit would be this powerful.

Xi Guan examined Liu Ying's pulse then let out a heavy sigh, "How could it be like this?"

"I was late to the scene, but I heard he started to go crazy after killing his first victim ..." Zhou Li told Xi Guan everything, and was only replied with a small nod by the old man.

All that he heard from Fang Yao's explanation on the trip earlier, Liu Ying seemed to be enjoying the killing and as if the opium would scent blood.

"The Phoenix Demon Soul Spirit will rise faster than expected, impossible! There should still be another year to reach the Soul perfection level." Xi Guan clasped his staff tightly.

Zhou Li stared pushyly, "The signs are already starting to show, moreover his soul aura is starting to feel thick after he interacts with the Blood of Hatred."

The Blood of Hatred is the blood of humans who have the Soul of Evil, if someone kills or eliminates the life of another human, then his blood will gradually turn into the Blood of Hatred along with the many murders that the person commits. That person's soul would also slowly turn into a Evil Soul.

"Blood Hatred will give a great reaction to the Phoenix Soul Spirit, no!! Elder Zhou, how many people died at Liu'er's hands?!" Panic ran straight for Xi Guan.

"I heard from Fang's boy, Liu'er has taken at least six or seven robbers' lives. And their condition is none of them intact."

Xi Guan was sitting limp on his chair, he might have already learned that the Phoenix seal would soon be destroyed, yet this was so sudden and his condition was not as expected. Phoenix Soul Spirits were extremely difficult to control, only about one percent of the people who possessed the Phoenix Soul Spirit were able to maintain their soul consciousness.

Even if he had Soul consciousness though, the Phoenix Soul Spirit could still devour his soul at any time.

"My fear all along seems to have really happened, we should find a way to thwart the rise of the Imperial Phoenix."

Xi Guan predicted that the birth of the Imperial Phoenix would be imminent in the near future, even a god would find it hard to stop that burst of power.

Zhou Li flipped Liu Ying's body facing to the left revealing an elongated black line that was engraved faintly on the girl's back neck.

"There is still a way before this Symbol is perfectly formed. Inside the Book of Phoenix Thousand Soul Doors, performing Soul Sanctification can guard the Phoenix Soul Spirit."

Zhou Li explained if the Phoenix Spirit performing the Purgatory Soul process can suppress the dark lust of the Demon Spirit to the maximum. But instead, Liu Ying had to give up his entire life languishing somewhere by handing his soul over to heaven and earth forever.

If only Liu Ying had not interacted with the Blood of Hatred prematurely, then, perhaps the Phoenix Soul Spirit would be able to be exterminated with a thousand inner power rings alongside the Heavenly Seal that was planted into Liu Ying's body right at the age of eighteen.

The calm in Xi Guan should be enough to carry out the process and just wait for time. Unfortunately what happened was completely beyond Xi Guan and Zhou Li's previous predictions.
