Chapter 2196 Is the Little Yellow Chicken the Undying Emperor?

"Anyway, I've always wanted to die... If this thing can kill me, I'll be very happy..." The little yellow chicken fluttered its wings.

Last time it transformed, it still kept a chicken head. If the flowing space before it could kill it, perhaps it could completely transform into human form.

"Hmm!" Although worried, thinking that even if the one before him exploded into powder, he could recover, Zhang Xuan finally nodded and said no more.

Whoosh!

Raising its claw, the little yellow chicken immediately drilled into the flowing space. In an instant, its body twisted as if entering a funhouse mirror, its slender form swelling considerably, golden all over, somewhat resembling the fire phoenix seen earlier in the Phoenix Cry Stone.

"Could it be... that the little yellow chicken is of the Phoenix Clan?"

This thought suddenly popped into his mind.

There are not many divine beasts in the world that can be named. This chicken he raised, having reached the Divine King realm, still couldn't fully transform. How powerful was its original form?

A titled Divine King... or even an Emperor?

"Could it be... that it is the Undying Emperor?"

A thought emerged.

The Undying Emperor, claiming to be undying, yet died—that itself was strange.

The little yellow chicken had abruptly appeared in a gourd in the Master Teacher Continent, devouring his Heavenly Dao true qi and growing rapidly. Moreover, even when blasted into powder, it not only didn't die but could break through barriers and advance quickly.

In the Upper Firmament, when seeing the Undying Emperor's tomb, it insisted on devouring the guarding skeleton...

The decaying qi that even Heavenly Dao true qi couldn't dissolve was easily broken by its bathwater...

Seeing the feather that held up the Spirit Source City, it felt familiar; seeing the flowing space before it, it also felt familiar...

Last time at the Moon Clear Pool, Qi Meng, a titled Divine King, addressed him as Emperor upon seeing him... presumably because the little yellow chicken had exploded and its blood had merged into him.

And it was precisely because he had devoured this blood that his physical body gained the attribute of indestructibility, allowing him to recover instantly no matter how severe the injury.

"I actually kept an Emperor as a spirit pet?"

The more he thought about it, the more his liver trembled, and his face twitched.

After entering the Divine Realm, he knew the status of an Emperor. Even Master Kong, to become an Emperor, needed recognition from others to achieve it...

An upper-grade Heavenly God taming an Emperor as a spirit pet—if this guy, without recovering his memory, said nothing, but once he did, would he be the first to kill him?

"It shouldn't be... If it were the Undying Emperor, and Ruoxi was its successor, even if it were in the gourd, hidden in the dantian, it should have sensed her, not pretended to know nothing..."

Based on current information, Luo Ruoxi was very likely the successor of the Undying Emperor. If so, back in the Master Teacher Continent, she would have seen the Cave Void Gourd that held the little yellow chicken... She couldn't have failed to recognize it!

Of course, it's hard to say.

The Emperor must have enemies. If his cultivation plummeted and he hid poorly, once discovered, he would likely be killed before he could grow.

Therefore, if he wanted to conceal himself, he had to do it thoroughly, so that no one could detect him.

"Forget it, I won't think about it. After tomorrow's competition, I can enter the Spirit God Palace and see Luo Ruoxi. All mysteries will be solved..."

Thinking so much is useless. The urgent task is to find a way into the Spirit God Palace.

Pushing aside the chaotic thoughts, he continued to look at the flowing space and saw the little yellow chicken battling several Divine King herbs.

Being able to survive in the flowing space and help people break through to the Divine King realm, this medicinal herb itself was quite formidable; even if it wasn't as powerful as a Divine King, it should be close.

However, the little yellow chicken was already strong, and with its higher cultivation, it didn't take long to completely subdue several medicinal herbs, carrying them in its beak as it flew back out.

Its body was twisted when leaving the flowing space, but with an immortal body, this level of injury was nothing. It placed the herbs in Zhang Xuan's hand, gave a light shake, then burrowed back into his dantian to continue sleeping.

There were four in total; originally there were five, but during the fight, the little yellow chicken ate one, found it tasted bad, and left the rest.

Taking out a jade box, Zhang Xuan packed the herbs and sealed them with true qi, then breathed a sigh of relief. Instead of going deeper, he quickly flew back.

He had just examined the herbs with the Library of Heaven's Path and, as he guessed, they were indeed Divine King Grass, which could increase one's chance of breaking through to the Divine King realm by fifty percent.

If compounded with some rare medicines and refined into pills, the effect would be even better.

With this, as long as he comprehended the cultivation technique for the Divine King realm, breaking through would become very simple.

"Teacher, are you all right..."

Returning to the place where he had parted with Feng Jiuge, he saw the young man looking over with a worried expression.

Zhang Xuan said, "Let's talk outside first!"

On the way in, they had been cautious of danger and moved slowly, but leaving was much easier. In less than half an hour, the two were back on the ground.

They retrieved the waiting flying divine beast and returned to the family.

"I've found the reason for your drop in cultivation; you no longer need to worry about being like before..." Zhang Xuan looked at his disciple and smiled slightly. "Moreover, I've found the Divine King Grass you mentioned earlier. Once I refine it into a pill, I'll give you one. As long as you cultivate diligently, breaking through to Divine King is just around the corner!"

"You found Divine King Grass? You'll give me one?"

Feng Jiuge was filled with excitement.

He had thought it was just a deceptive legend, but it turned out to be real, and his teacher had even found it!

Not only that, but he had also promised to give him one...

His eyes reddened again.

"Continue cultivating here. I'm going out for a while and will try to return before the competition tomorrow!"

Ignoring his sentimental disciple, Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment and asked.

There was still half a day until the competition. He would first refine the herbs; once successful, he could comprehend the Divine King cultivation method and break through directly, without further delay.

However, pills that could help one break through to the Divine King realm were not easy to refine. The art of alchemy required great skill, and the first person who came to his mind was the previously encountered Fu Jiangchen!

This alchemist, hailed as the best in the Divine Realm and a Divine King-level powerhouse, would be foolproof if he handled it.

Most importantly, they had crossed paths before, and he trusted the man's character.

Otherwise, if news of the Divine King Grass leaked out, who knew how many would come after him.

The commotion it would cause would surely be even more terrifying than that of the Barrier-Breaking Pill or the Beauty Pill!

After all, one more Divine King meant one more asset for a family... Even a titled Divine King would find it hard to resist the temptation.

"Teacher, be careful..." Knowing that his teacher must have something to do, Feng Jiuge said no more.

Zhang Xuan nodded, instructed him not to reveal the matter of the Divine King Grass, then boarded the flying divine beast and headed back to the large teleportation array in Lingyuan City.

Half a day—with such a teleportation array, going to Linglong Heaven, finding Fu Jiangchen, refining the pill, and returning should be feasible timewise.
