Zhang Ruochen had already destroyed the spatial formation around the Phoenix Nest, so the space wasnt as weak as before. Instead, because Supreme Saints had cultivated here before, the space was extraordinarily stable.

The Phoenix Nest was probably the location with the most stable space in the entire Zuling Field.

Lord Lingquan and the nine first marquises ran in a hurry. Not only did they not take away the divine purple mountain, they didnt even save Marquis Juqing whod fallen into the Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow, leaving him to his own devices.

They stood on the Xuanwu shell. After entering the seven-colored light area, Zhang Ruochens vision was obstructed. He couldnt see them clearly anymore.

The seven-colored light shining from the Phoenix Nest was three miles long and very misty. It looked beautiful from afar.

Zhang Ruochen arrived three miles away from the Phoenix Nest. Looking up, he saw that this nest was actually taller than a mountain. The seven-colored light that shone from it was condensed and a shred of Supreme Saint power actually radiated from the light.

The Ice Fire Phoenixs nest is definitely extraordinary, Zhang Ruochen thought. Im afraid there is great danger inside.

Princess Luosha was extremely powerful, but after going in for so long, she still hadnt come out. This was enough to show that both the inheritance of the Ice Fire Phoenix and Godly Star Soul were extremely hard to find. One might even run into a death trial.

Zhang Ruochen took out the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron and filled it with Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow. Then he charged into the seven-colored light.

A bit of the Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow could freeze a first marquis, slowing their circulation of Evil Sha Qi. If he poured out this cauldron without warning, probably even someone like Lord Lingquan would be weakened for a while.

Using the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to carry Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow was indeed over the top, but he had no other way.

Qing Mos divine relic made all the Saints of Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion Field jealous, leading to fierce competition. It was evident that treasures like divine relics were very valuable in other fields.

The Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was even more precious than Qing Mos silver kitchen knife. If it was exposed, Zhang Ruochen would definitely gain even more enemies.

After all, the cultivators of the Heaven World could all see the battle in Zuling Field through the projection. Anything related to gods would even tempt Supreme Saints in the Heaven World.

Plus, with Zhang Ruochens current cultivation, his power after using the Buddhas sarira might not be much weaker than when using the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron.

Thus, he wouldnt reveal this trump card unless there was no other choice.

After entering the seven-colored light zone, Zhang Ruochen wanted to put the Merits Record Wall underfoot into his spatial ring. He discovered that the divine light from the wall actually resisted the spatial ring. He couldnt put it in.

Then he tried using the Mercury Gourd and Time and Space Crystal, but he failed both times.

A gods tactics are indeed powerful. It seems like I cant destroy the Merits Record Wall even if I rip apart the space. Ill have to bring it along no matter where I go now.

Zhang Ruochen shrugged, feeling helpless.

The Merits Record Wall was 33 feet tall and very big, like a small mountain. It would be difficult to cover their traces when traveling with it.

Demonic Sounds eyes turned to the Phoenix Nest before them.

The huge nest, more than 10,000 meters long, was made out of seven-colored vines. These vines didnt seem to be wood. They shone with colorful light as if made out of metal.

Some of the vines were as thin as hair and floated on the water. Others were shockingly thickmore than ten meters wide.

Zhang Ruochen was also attracted. He sensed strong wood elemental Qi radiating from the vines. Clearly, the seven-colored vines werent ordinary items.

Honghua Vines, Demonic Sound said.

Zhang Ruochen wasnt as knowledgeable in the plant world as Demonic Sound. Feeling curious, he asked, What are Honghua Vines?

In legends, Demonic Sound said, after a Saint Monk with high cultivation passed away, a strange rainbow phenomenon would appear. The land of the death would also turn into seven-colored dirt. A being had once seen a seven-colored vine on a rainbow planet. The branches of the vine spread across the entire star, shining with saintly seven-colored light. After that, the legend of Honghua Vines was created. Honghua means rainbow.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the Phoenix Nest before him. A Saint Monk dies, Honghua Vines are born. Death and life happen simultaneously on the rainbow land. Is this a continuation of life?

Demonic Sound shook her head. No one knows However, Honghua Vines are treasures too. A three-foot-long vine as thick as your finger would cost at least ten saint stones to buy. As for the price in the Heaven World, I wouldnt know. It should be rare, so it wouldnt be cheap.

Oh?

Zhang Ruochen was surprised and asked, What are Honghua Vines used for that they can be sold for such a high price?

The fragrance after burning them can help cultivators study the Rules of Saintly Way.

A Supreme Saint phoenixs nest is indeed filled with treasures. There are many Honghua Vines here. We must take some.

Golden dragon wings rushed out of Zhang Ruochens back and he flew up to take some of the Honghua Vines from the nest. But when his fingers were still a few meters away, strange formation runes actually appeared on the vines.

Thud!

As if attacked by thunder, Zhang Ruochen was forced to fly back. He landed back on the Merits Record Wall.

Even with his boxing glove, his fingers still stung. However, Zhang Ruochen didnt feel depressed. As expected, its not that easy, he murmured to himself.

Are the formation runes carved on the vines powerful? Demonic Sound asked.

Zhang Ruochen nodded. Its made by a Supreme Saint. How can it not be powerful?

Zhang Ruochens knowledge in formations wasnt as strong as Princess Luosha, so he didnt dare to make boastful claims. No matter how low the Ice Fire Phoenixs attainment in formations were, it could still easily crush Saints.

After investigating, Zhang Ruochen discovered nine entrances to the Phoenix Nest. They were in different directions.

The nine entrances were all open and one could come and go at will.

Zhang Ruochen chose the biggest entrance for no reason other than it was the only one big enough for the Merits Record Wall.

Zhang Ruochen explored in the front while Demonic Sound followed behind. She used a vine to drag the Merits Record Wall.

There was a seven-colored world inside the Phoenix Nest. The Saintly Qi here was very strong. The inside was much larger than it appeared. Zhang Ruochen and Demonic Sound walked for a dozen miles without running into or seeing anything. It was very strange.

Is the Phoenix Nest really only 10,000 meters long? Demonic Sound couldnt help but ask.

Zhang Ruochen was very calm. The Ice Fire Phoenix was very advanced in time and spatial way. Its nest is a spatial formation. It used the formation to create a space. Ha, its this tactic again.

Zhang Ruochen had already seen this tactic in the outermost 33 saint mountains. The Ice Fire Phoenix had used a saint jade to create one black and one white world. He and Princess Luosha had almost gotten stuck inside forever.

The Phoenix Nests space was even more advanced and steady. If it continued to evolve, it could become a small world.

Of course, the current seven-colored space here was still incomplete and had many flaws. Life couldnt develop here.

After walking around 500 miles, Zhang Ruochen suddenly stopped. He picked up a 1.3-foot-long Honghua Vine. The formation runes had already been wiped.

Eyes narrowing, he looked around. Princess Luosha mustve left this Honghua Vine here.

Why? Demonic Sound asked.

Only she is advanced enough in formations to damage the formation runes in the nest. If Im not wrong, she shouldve taken a lot of Honghua Vines.

Zhang Ruochen collected the vine. Then he took out the Abyss Ancient Sword and forged on cautiously.

After another 100 miles, he heard water.

How could the Phoenix Nest have water?

Could it be the sound of the Nether Winter Sea outside?

It didnt sound like seawater to Zhang Ruochen. It was more like a creek, so he sped up and walked forward.

Finding the source of the water sound, Zhang Ruochen had an incredulous expression. He laughed out loud. How can this be?

A crude circular stone, like a giant millstone, lay slanted on a tall platform.

The center of the millstone had a crude stone stick. It was like a primitive stone tool that had been passed down for generations.

The sound of a creek came from the stick and millstone. It was very strange.

Demonic Sound caught up from behind. Seeing this scene, she opened her red lips in disbelief. The sound of water comes from the stone. The sound is so clear too. This is impossible.

Zhang Ruochens eyes shone with intelligent light. It might not be the sound of water, he said meaningfully. It may be the sound of time.

Time has a sound too?

Demonic Sound thought that Zhang Ruochen must be crazy. How could time have sound?

Time is like water, flowing constantly. We are in the water and can only go with the flow to the future. We are in the present, but we dont know that the present is the future of the past.

Zhang Ruochen pointed at the millstone.Do you know about sundials? he asked.

Of course, Demonic Sound said. Sundials are a tool to calculate time from some human civilizations. It uses the direction of the suns shadow to calculate time and divide it into hours. Do you think this is a sundialIt looks like it, but its too crude.

Demonic Sound stared closely. She discovered that the circular millstone indeed had some ancient words and tick marks. However, because too much time had passed, the patterns were very blurry. One wouldnt catch them without looking closely.

Zhang Ruochen held his chin and murmured to himself, I think its a time treasure.

Hed seen many spatial treasures, but he only had a few time treasures. However, even the power contained in a time treasure could only change the flow of time inside.

It was his first time seeing a pure time treasure.
