Chapter 965: Chapter 0962: The Immortal Body
Ach’s research assignment was heavy.
Li Si Te (Liszt) felt sympathetic, yet there was no way to pull her away from her research. The Phoenix Egg, Tinderpile, and Phoenix Bloodstone had already been entrusted to Ach, who was researching how to preserve the Phoenix’s fire seed.
Of course, the main focus was still on researching the Phoenix Incarnation in conjunction with the Phoenix Egg to retain the fire seed of the Phoenix.
“Brother, the abilities of the Phoenix Incarnation are just these for now. There might be some hidden abilities, like rebirth from flames or something, but they are difficult to study. For the sake of brother’s safety, it’s best not to try them lightly.” Ach handed the research materials to Liszt, “As for magic, Ach will try her best to help brother improve it.”
Based on Ach’s research and the imprinted information from the Phoenix Bloodline that Liszt organized, they basically hammered out the abilities of the Phoenix Incarnation.
There were approximately six incredible, unbelievable abilities.
The first, Flame Ascension—The Phoenix has the ability to fly with fire attributes, and it can slip through any crevice. Its speed could surpass the speed of sound, and even if there was a wall ahead, as long as there was a slightly larger gap in the wall, it could directly charge through it.
The second, Physical Immunity—The Phoenix Incarnation is a form condensed from Superior Magic, and any physical attack would be unable to harm the Phoenix Incarnation, equating to an immortal body.
The third, Magic Overwhelming—Many Fire System magics are imprinted in the Phoenix Incarnation’s bloodline instincts. However, Liszt, for now, could only perform magic similar to Flame Slash. After all, his Phoenix Incarnation was still in its juvenile stages, but his Flame Slash was based on High Magic to cast, with power equal to an ordinary Archmage.
It fell short of the combat power of a Dragon, clearly not reaching the magical level of Ach riding a Unicorn.
Liszt hoped that Ach could help him design a few simple magics that fit the Phoenix Incarnation; utilizing Innate Magic would be too costly.
The fourth, Semi-Elementalization—This meant he could partially transform his body into the Phoenix Incarnation, and his body was gradually moving towards an Archmage’s Elemental Incarnation due to the subtle changes in the Phoenix Incarnation, although he hadn’t touched the Magic Web, ultimately only capable of semi-elementalization.
The fifth, Dou Qi Sublimation—His Dragon Dou Qi, through long-term cultivation with the Dragon, reached the level of High Magic. However, at this moment, after devouring the essence of the Phoenix and further cultivating with the Dragon, what was extracted from the cells was not High Magic level Dragon Dou Qi, but Superior Magic level Dragon Dou Qi.
When he and Leo entered Dragon Rider Mode, the combat power they exerted would skyrocket by several times. Once the Dragon Dou Qi fully transformed into Superior Magic Dou Qi, his strength would probably surpass all other Dragon Knights.
Last.
There was also the sixth ability, Hundred Birds Toward The Phoenix—This was the reward from the Smoke Mission, and as Ach speculated, once Liszt completely merged with the Phoenix Incarnation, he would possess the ability to command birds.
The reason was simple.
Liszt gradually discovered that he seemed to understand the calls of birds. When he flew in the form of the Phoenix Incarnation, those Flame Dragon Birds and Red Sparrow Birds would quiver with fear upon seeing him, and the occasional chirp seemed to express submission and reverence towards him.
Even birds that weren’t of the Fire Attribute seemed to vaguely convey the meaning behind their calls.
“Charley can sense a special malice coming from brother, this is probably due to the Phoenix’s resentment from being devoured. This malice is obstructing brother’s communication with birds. Perhaps, if we guide this malice out, we can preserve the fire seed of the Phoenix and let it be reborn.”
“Why would I want to communicate with birds!”
Liszt always felt that the ability of Hundred Birds Toward The Phoenix was awkward; he wasn’t a birdman and didn’t need to communicate with beasts!
“Hehe,” Ach said, giggling, “If brother really can develop the ability of Hundred Birds Toward The Phoenix, couldn’t he establish a flying Knight Order? The Royal Knight Squad of the Burning Legion could be quickly dealt with too. Those Flame Dragon Birds and Red Sparrow Birds would all make excellent mounts.”
Liszt promptly changed the subject: “What do I need to do to guide out the residual malice of the Phoenix?”
“This involves the stripping of the soul. Ach has recently made great advances in the research of Lich Andy, and he is fully prepared and can initiate the separation of him from the Marks of Terror and the Dragon Soul at any time. Once Ach completes the separation experiment, he will be able to strip away the malice of the Phoenix from my brother and inject it into the Phoenix Egg.”
“Please do it as soon as possible. I can also feel a barrier between myself and the Phoenix Incarnation, we are never completely in harmony, perhaps due to the repulsion of this malign influence.”
…
December arrived suddenly.
Liszt hadn’t returned to Flame Castle in the past half month, staying in the Endless Volcano Cluster instead, studying the Phoenix Incarnation. At the same time, he also intensified his training with Leo, repeatedly slashing away Leo’s malicious thoughts, polishing his own Mind Branding to become clearer and clearer, and his suppressive influence over Leo grew stronger.
“Following this pace, in another two or three months, I should be able to complete the Mind Branding, allowing the training between me and Leo to reach a perfect Dragon Knight stage.”
By that time, even without his personal suppression, the Mind Branding would automatically twist Leo’s evil thoughts.
Thus, he and Ach returned to Reed City together, where Ach began to set up the experiment for the soul separation of Lich Andy, while he went to Flame Castle to inspect the progress of the estate’s construction—proving that the Development Committee had done well, and the estate didn’t falter without him.
As long as he could ensure the high-end combat power at the Dragon tier, enough to suppress the Flame Kingdom, the Knight Class would naturally maintain the internal operations of the Kingdom.
After all, he neither revolutionized new systems nor advanced technological trees.
Except for creating some paper, glass products; strengthening hygiene and civilization concepts; developing some infrastructure, magic engineering; formulating some reliable and unreliable strategies.
He didn’t bring about too many changes, everything was built upon the foundation of the knight system, nothing out of place.
In this magical fantasy world, even some extraordinary improvements aren’t surprising. After all, people here grow up seeing dragons, elves, unicorns, archmages, and listening to all kinds of incredible mysterious legends every day, each person has a strong capacity for acceptance.
However, faced with this scene, Liszt unexpectedly felt a bit of loss, as if he had become an unimportant person.
In the past, he often complained about being plagued with official duties, busy with no time to breathe; but when there was no official business at all, he felt even more empty and lost instead.
But he quickly adjusted his mentality: “This is quite good, my ideal has never been to become a king. Traveling around the world, experiencing countless mysterious sceneries, exploring the origins of mysteries, this is what I should do. Once the nation is on the right track, I will set out on an adventure!”
Many people were residing in Flame Castle.
All members of the Tulip Family had already moved here—Li Weiliam, Lady Penelope, Lady Marie, Loria, and Little Richard.
His elder brother Levis was presiding over the development in Dragon Valley City, and his half-brother Lidun from another mother had entered Knight Order training and did not reside in Flame Castle. His sister Li Vera, who married into the Basil Family, had also moved to Flame Island, settling in Jade City and getting involved in construction.
As the center of the territory had shifted to Reed City, for the convenience of work, the new Tulip Castle was being built there. Once completed, Marquis Li Weiliam would move the Tulip Family members into the new Castle.
There were many castles also being built, all by Nobles for themselves, to facilitate living—they couldn’t possibly squeeze into wooden houses like ordinary knights.
In fact, Liszt’s King’s Castle had already found its site. Flame City, Jade City, Reed City, Dragon Valley City, Estuary City were all rejected, and he had officially decided to establish the King’s Castle near Moon Slayer Sacred Mountain—Emily, while practicing, was always directing the Mammoth Knight Brigade, paving roads toward the location of the Moon Slayer Sacred Mountain.
“Within three years, the King’s Castle must be built, and most crucially, my Royal Palace!”
