Yi Tianyun searched the place excitedly, he knew that there was a chance that the phoenix has left the place already, but the probability it was still here was not zero! He knew that he must look carefully for it!
Not long after, Yi Tianyun found a hole on the river that wasn't big but enough for a person to enter. He immediately used his Spiritual Energy to explore the hole as he didn't want to be trapped underwater. But unfortunately, the hole was too deep, and his Spiritual Energy couldn't cover it all, but he got the feeling that the hole was connected to the mountain nearby, and he also understood that the Phoenix Crystal must be coming from this hole!
So, without any more hesitation, Yi Tianyun jumped down to the hole and quickly swam inside to find out what was in the other end of the hole.
After going down for a while, Yi Tianyun finally felt the water around him changing direction upward, meaning that the end of the hole was near! Sure enough, he could see a faint light coming from the top!
He became excited and immediately sped up to arrive quicker.
After he got out of the cave, he immediately felt a strong heat that could be compared with the prison that trapped Ye Qingxuan.
Yi Tianyun looked around, and suddenly he became excited!
He saw a big fire parasol tree that swayed in flame while a small phoenix was resting below.
Yi Tianyun could see many Red Crystals scattered around the phoenix, proving his theory that this crystal was once part of the phoenix's egg!
But the place was a little bit weird, as he saw a divine rune around the room that prevented escaping outside!
The only place left that could serve as an entrance was the small underground cave!
Fortunately, the man Yi Tianyun met earlier didn't know about the rarity of the red crystal. Otherwise, he wouldn't let anyone know about this place!
Yi Tianyun immediately walked forward, but as soon as he walked closer to the Fire Parasol Tree, its leaves began to sway wildly and suddenly turned into flames and were hurled at Yi Tianyun!
Yi Tianyun was a little bit surprised and immediately activated his Absorbing Star Great Technique!
'DING'
'Successfully added 50 Immortal Flame Mastery Points, 100 Immortal Flame Mastery Points, …'
"Hey, this thing increased Immortal Flame mastery! This is great!" Yi Tianyun said excitedly.
He was struggling to add a mastery for this Immortal Flame as he didn't really feel the need to level it up, he was focused on improving his combat power, so increasing his Martial Arts, Ability, and Crazy Mode, come first!
Although he did increase the Immortal Flame's mastery from constantly using it, it was still far from leveling up!
But he surely didn't expect that tree would attack him like this!
He immediately used the appraisal Eye to see what he was up against this time.
'Fire Phoenix Tree: 8th Level Spirit Core Stage.
A tree born after the death of a phoenix had a trace of the Soul Memory of a Phoenix. Automatically attack any outsider with Phoenix Fire!
Reward on kill: Phoenix Soul and Immortal Flame!'
Yi Tianyun was mistaken, it wasn't a fire parasol tree, but a Fire Phoenix Tree!
Although he always heard that a phoenix would never die, he never expected to have one transformed into a tree before!
A couple more fire leaves shot out from the tree, and Yi Tianyun kept absorbing all its qi without any problem.
The attack became more intense as he got closer and closer towards the tree, but as the leaf began to dwindle, the intensity of the attack dropped, it seems that this tree could attack as much as the amount of leaf it had!
Yi Tianyun immediately assumed that the Fire Phoenix Tree was only attacking him in order to protect the small phoenix below it.
Yi Tianyun thought that maybe the tree was originally the mother of this small phoenix and wanted to protect it for the last time!
Yi Tianyun didn't know whether the tree could communicate, but he surely wanted to!
Yi Tianyun wanted to reassure the Fire Phoenix Tree that he will protect the small phoenix for he knew that the small phoenix couldn't leave this place, and this place didn't have any food to sustain the small phoenix's life!

The closer he was to the Fire Phoenix Tree, the faster its shot!
Yi Tianyun knew that the tree would be dead soon, as its spiritual energy was drained from constantly attacking.
"Stop! I am not here to cause any harm! I saw a small phoenix crystal outside and it piqued my curiosity, that's all!" Yi Tianyun shouted to the tree, but the tree continues to shoot him with the flame leaf.
"Stop! Look at the little phoenix over there! It was clear that it had malnutrition! At this rate, it will die soon!" Yi Tianyun shouted again, trying to reason with the tree.
After hearing Yi Tianyun's word, the tree stopped attacking for a while but attacked again hesitantly not long after.
"Hear me out, I will make an oath to protect it as long as I can! I will never hurt it, and I will treat it right! I can even send it to any phoenix nest you want!" Yi Tianyun said sincerely.
Many cultivators thought of a Divine Beast as a treasure, that could be seen with the dragon from the Netherworld Empire, the Dragon Soldiers were one of the highest ranked military group in that empire!
This applied to phoenix as well, there was no way the Netherworld Empire would disregard any phoenix if they ever found any phoenix, they would immediately send many representatives to try to get the phoenix for themselves!
At the same time, the Fire Phoenix Tree stopped attacking and seemed to calm down after hearing Yi Tianyun's oath, an oath was a sacred thing, so it knew that Yi Tianyun wouldn't be able to break the oath!
Yi Tianyun also knew that he had to take the oath right away to appease the Fire Phoenix Tree.
"I, Yi Tianyun, will do my best to protect the little phoenix and find a way to send it home. Otherwise, I would be condemned!" Yi Tianyun said sincerely.
Suddenly the sky turned dark, and a divine rune immediately fell towards Yi Tianyun, signing the oath has been made! This meant that Yi Tianyun wouldn't be able to do anything that went against his oath, and he must finish it in order to be relieved from this oath.
After the oath has been made, Yi Tianyun approached the Fire Phoenix Tree, and as he thought, it didn't attack anymore!
Once he was under the tree, the Fire Phoenix Tree began to sway again, making the leaf fall on Yi Tianyun, but this time, the fire on the leaves was different, it was soothing in a way, and the flame itself turned into Immortal Flame's Mastery Point!
'Successfully received 500 Immortal Flame Mastery Points, 789 Immortal Flame Mastery Points, …'
The mastery of the Immortal Flames increased rapidly!
Along with the falling leaves, a phantom shadow emerged beside the tree condensing itself to be a huge phoenix, instead of a human.
"You are different than any other human I have seen so far! I have entrusted my remaining phoenix fire inside your body so that you can use it in the future. The stronger your cultivation is, the more it could help you out!" The phoenix said towards Yi Tianyun exhaustedly.
"What did you need me to do?" Yi Tianyun asked sincerely.
"Please help me send Yan'er back to the Phoenix Nest, after you send her back, our Phoenix Clan will reward you fairly!" The phoenix said solemnly.
Once again, Yi Tianyun received a bunch of Immortal Flame Mastery Points received, he knew that the Immortal Flame would be upgraded soon!
'DING'
'Congratulation on leveling up the Immortal Flame to Middle Grade Earth Level!'
'Flame Power increases three times, Blacksmith and Pill refining success rate increased!'
'Next Level requires 500.000 Mastery.'
Yi Tianyun was excited to see his Immortal Flame leveled up!
With this, he was quite sure that he could increase the quality of the items he crafted or refined!
'DING!'
'Successfully accepted a side quest [Escort A Small Phoenix Back to its Nest – A Phoenix's Wish!]'
'Reward on completion: 200.000.000 Exp, 1.000.000 Cps, 300 PPs, 100 Phoenix Clan's Favourability.'
A new quest popped up and successfully startling Yi Tianyun as he saw the amount of Exp was the biggest among his other quests!
