Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1881 - 1882: Heart-pursuing Item

Ling Zhenfei was a bit surprised when he heard this. So that meant if he just kept developing steadily like this, by the time he reached the Foreign Land and arrived at the Pursue Heart State together with Sha Qianqiu…

Since Sha Qianqiu had the Water Dragon as his Heart-pursuing Item, he would easily defeat him.

Ling Zhenfei glanced at the half-carved Wooden Sword in Lu Tao's hand and said, "Senior, are you planning to use this Wooden Sword as your own Heart-pursuing Item?"

Lu Tao nodded. "That's right, that's the idea. I want to start from the making itself, slowly build up a bond with this Wooden Sword, and then cultivate it into my own Heart-pursuing Item."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Senior, why not use something you've already used for years? Wouldn't it be much easier to cultivate that into a Heart-pursuing Item?"

Lu Tao laughed. "Have you forgotten my nickname? Ever-changing Lord. If I always stuck to the rules, could I still be called the Ever-changing Lord?"

Ling Zhenfei laughed as well, but in his heart he also started thinking about his own Heart-pursuing Item. Logically speaking, there were plenty of things that had been with him a long time—like the Dragon Tooth Dagger, the Phoenix Elixir Furnace, and such.

But when he thought about it, if his life-bound item was just a simple dagger or Pill Furnace, it didn't seem that great.

By the time he reached the Pursue Heart State and ran into Sha Qianqiu again, the other guy's Heart-pursuing Item would be a Water Dragon, while his own would be a Pill Furnace—wouldn't that make people laugh their Daya off?

Yet thinking it over, it seemed that aside from the Phoenix Elixir Furnace and the Dragon Tooth Dagger, there really wasn't anything else that had been with him that long.

Looked like he could only choose between the Dragon Tooth Dagger and the Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

At this time, Lu Tao asked about Lu Huanong and Chen Qian. Ling Zhenfei told him everything about them one by one, without hiding anything.

Lu Tao nodded and said, "That puts my mind at ease. Looks like Hua Nong has grown up too, and has her own ideas now."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Yeah, she really does have a strong mind of her own."

Lu Tao then asked about the trip to the Island Nation. Back then, they had even talked on the phone because of that matter.

Now, bringing it up again, there was still a faint sigh in his voice.

Lu Tao said, "I hated those two for twenty years, and it turned out to be a misunderstanding. Seems I really did them wrong."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That was all the Demon Hunter's scheme, meant to make us kill each other. You don't have to blame yourselves."

Lu Tao said, "Hoshino Yuji and the others called me, said they'll come here to see me in a while."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's a good thing. You all went through life and death together twenty years ago; this counts as a good outcome."

Lu Tao said, "The Hoshino Family and the Watanabe Family have hated each other for twenty years. In these twenty years they've both suffered casualties. I don't know if those two families will still remain enemies."

Ling Zhenfei said, "When they get here, just have them sit down and talk it out. That in itself is a good thing."

Lu Tao said, "We'll just take it one step at a time."

He chatted with Lu Tao for a whole afternoon, and it was near dusk when Ling Zhenfei finally returned home.

Zhou Yun had long known Ling Zhenfei was back and had prepared a sumptuous dinner for him.

When they sat down to eat, there was one more person at Ling Zhenfei's place—Mo Lun.

Chunyu seemed not to think much of this Mo Lun, but Zhou Yun was fine with him and was quite warm and friendly toward Mo Lun.

As they ate, Mo Lun asked Ling Zhenfei, "When are we going to Wuliang Mountain?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "What are you so anxious for? Don't worry, I won't delay you. You said you'd listen to me—so we go when I say we go."

Mo Lun was a bit anxious and said, "That won't do. You said once you got everything sorted in the next couple of days, we'd leave."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Yeah, and we've still got two days, don't we? Don't rush. If there's one thing about me, it's that my word counts."

Mo Lun was left speechless by Ling Zhenfei's words.

That night, Ling Zhenfei sat in his room. On the table, on one side lay the Dragon Tooth Dagger and on the other the Phoenix Elixir Furnace—these two were the treasures that had been with him the longest.

Ling Zhenfei wrapped each of them in his Northern Spiritual Energy, feeling them out carefully.

Actually, when he first obtained these treasures, Ling Zhenfei had already probed them with his Northern Spiritual Energy.

The Dragon Tooth Dagger went without saying—it was carved from the tooth of an Ancient Divine Dragon, and carried the aura of a Divine Dragon. This was also why, in the Peach Blossom Secret Realm, those water-dwelling monsters were a bit afraid of the Dragon Tooth Dagger.

Those water monsters were often harassed by the Evil Dragon of Evil Day, so when a dragon aura appeared again, of course they were furious.

As for the Phoenix Elixir Furnace, that was even more impressive. It was said there was a strand of Phoenix Essence inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

At the very beginning, Ling Zhenfei could feel something special inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace, but he hadn't sensed any Phoenix Essence itself.

After that, the Phoenix Elixir Furnace became something he only used when refining Elixir, and he'd long forgotten about the matter of the Phoenix Essence.

Today, placing the Phoenix Elixir Furnace before him and letting his Northern Spiritual Energy seep into it to feel it out, he could only sense that there seemed to be something inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

But as for what exactly, he couldn't tell. It was probably that so-called Phoenix Essence.

But Ling Zhenfei wasn't willing to give up and tried to use his Northern Spiritual Energy to let his Dragon Soul enter it.

Just as Ling Zhenfei's soul wrapped around the Phoenix Elixir Furnace, he indeed felt something different. The Phoenix Essence was, in a way, also the Phoenix's soul.

Perhaps there was some kind of connection between soul and soul; Ling Zhenfei's soul actually did sense something.

Right inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace, there really was a Phoenix wandering about. Maybe sensing Ling Zhenfei's soul, a faint wisp of purple flame suddenly emerged from within the Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

The purple flame gave Ling Zhenfei quite a scare. Usually, flames would only appear when he channeled Northern Spiritual Energy into the Phoenix Elixir Furnace—just now he'd used his soul, not Northern Spiritual Energy.

This purple flame was very faint and he could barely feel any heat from it, but Ling Zhenfei could sense an extremely powerful force within it.

That made Ling Zhenfei a little afraid.

The Phoenix and the Divine Dragon were powerful Divine Beasts who lived in the Ancient Era alongside the gods; naturally, the Divine Power they possessed was incredibly strong.

Ling Zhenfei continued to probe the Phoenix Essence inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace with his soul. As his soul strength kept increasing, the Phoenix Essence grew very excited.

The outline of the Phoenix gradually became clearer—a beautiful Phoenix stood proudly with its head raised. Even though it was only a strand of essence, he could still feel the might of a Divine Beast.

Ling Zhenfei was shocked in his heart. So he really had underestimated this Phoenix Elixir Furnace before. His success rate in refining Elixir being so high was clearly related to the powerful Phoenix Essence inside the Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

Ling Zhenfei was extremely excited. It felt like he had accidentally gotten his hands on an immensely powerful treasure—he'd really struck gold.

Fortunately, he had cultivated his soul; an ordinary cultivator would find it very difficult to discover that there was a complete Phoenix Essence inside this Phoenix Elixir Furnace.

Yes, a complete Phoenix Essence, not just a single strand. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
