Chapter 350 The Secret of the Chaotic Burning Sea

"It was just luck. I should thank you for the secret manual you gave me, senior," Bai Ke said calmly.

The little Vermilion Bird flew over from behind and nuzzled affectionately against Bai Ke, who then patted the little Vermilion Bird's head.

It seems that the little Vermilion Bird's cultivation has increased dramatically, and it has already reached the Mahayana stage! As expected of a divine beast with unique advantages, it was born with the cultivation of the Returning to Emptiness stage.

Perhaps it was because she felt a special connection with Bai Ke, similar to the feeling she had with her mother. In fact, it was quite similar; Bai Ke used his own essence and blood to help her hatch, and the little Vermilion Bird did indeed contain Bai Ke's essence and blood within her.

“You don’t need to be modest. If you don’t have the talent and comprehension, even the best techniques won’t help,” Phoenix said to Bai Ke, shaking her head.

"By human standards, you should be considered a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!" Phoenix said, looking at Bai Ke.

Bai Ke nodded upon hearing this.

"But it's not enough."

Um, Bai Ke awkwardly asked Phoenix when they could get out. They couldn't stay trapped here forever; Bai Ke still had many things to do.

Phoenix did not answer his question immediately, but asked Bai Ke instead, "Do you know the origin of the Chaotic Burning Sea?"

Bai Ke said, "According to ancient records, the Chaotic Burning Sea was originally an ordinary sea area. It was gradually formed by the accidental fall of extraterrestrial meteorites due to the collapse of the Heavenly Dao."

Phoenix nodded and said, "Hehe, basically the same, but this is not a meteorite from outer space, and it also hides a... earth-shattering secret!" At this point, Phoenix's expression suddenly became serious and cautious!

Bai Ke's heart skipped a beat. Even a divine beast of the Phoenix's caliber showed a serious expression, indicating that this secret was no small matter.

Phoenix continued, "Can you recover your spiritual power here?"

Bai Ke shook his head and said, "Indeed, it's impossible unless you use a pill. But I'm also quite curious. Given such a difficult environment, why is Senior Phoenix hiding here?"

"This is the secret of the Chaotic Burning Sea! A thousand years ago, I found this place by chance, but I never expected that it could hide the aura of any creature."

"

"However, I discovered that the spiritual energy here is unusually thin, as if it has been absorbed by something. But in these thousand years, apart from hatching my son, I unexpectedly discovered that every ten years, a wisp of chaotic energy leaks out of this place!" the phoenix suddenly said in a low voice.

"Chaotic Qi!" Bai Ke exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right. So every ten years, I have been following this chaotic aura to find its source. Ten years ago, I finally found and confirmed its location."

Bai Ke was puzzled. If that was the case, why didn't Phoenix take out this item?

Phoenix noticed Bai Ke's confusion and continued with some regret, "Unfortunately, although this item is extremely beneficial to divine beasts, it also repels any divine beast."

Then the tone suddenly shifted: "However, you are different as a human. Chaos originated from the ancient god Pangu who created the world. Although Pangu was a god, he was also a human who cultivated himself. Chaos was exceptionally compatible with Pangu."

"I hope you can try to merge with this thing. This will not only benefit your future achievements, but also bring many benefits to Que'er. Do you dare to try? However, I must warn you first that if this is not done well, you may be devoured by it. You should be prepared."

Bai Ke's mind raced. Cultivation was inherently against the heavens, and life and death were commonplace. Once one obtained it, it would be like ascending to heaven in one step!

"I'll go!" Bai Ke said firmly.

"Good, I was right about you. I hope you will live up to my expectations!" Phoenix said, turning and walking towards the center of the volcano.

Bai Ke and Xiao Zhuque followed closely behind.

The phoenix exhaled golden light and silently chanted an unknown incantation. Suddenly, an incomparably holy white light appeared from below the center of the volcano. As the white light dimmed slightly, a white sphere about the size of a fist could be clearly seen.

"Ding! Ding! Ding! One divine artifact, the Shattered Heart of Chaos, has been detected. The system has issued an urgent mission—Chaos Fusion. The reward for fusing the Shattered Heart of Chaos is ten million Evil Points!"

Bai Ke was taken aback, as the system rewarded him with a dish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Haha, getting this would be a huge windfall! Bai Ke immediately realized this, his body trembling with surprise. Fortunately, Phoenix didn't notice him, otherwise she would have thought he had gone mad.

“Go on, kid!” Phoenix said.

Bai Ke took a deep breath, determined to merge with this chaotic and shattered heart, and strode forward.

Bai Ke sat cross-legged facing the Shattered Heart of Chaos, made a hand seal, and used two fingers to guide the Shattered Heart of Chaos to slowly approach and merge with it.

The moment the Chaos Shattered Heart touched Bai Ke's body, it unexpectedly advanced instead of retreating, heading straight for Bai Ke's heart and enveloping his entire heart.

Oh no! Bai Ke sensed something was wrong. The Chaotic Shattered Heart was trying to devour his own heart, so Bai Ke forcibly guarded his soul.

*Pfft!* Bai Ke spat out a mouthful of blood essence. His heart began to lose its vitality, beating slower and slower, and his consciousness became somewhat blurred.

The little Vermilion Bird cried out urgently, and the Phoenix Beast shouted, "You mustn't faint! Relax your mind and try to communicate with the Heart of Chaos!"

"Take it calmly and don't panic!"

"No! I can't die yet, I still have so many things to do! Ah!" Bai Ke murmured to himself.

Suddenly, Bai Ke's mind went blank; he could see nothing, only what seemed like a wisp of energy. What was happening?

Bai Ke panicked, unable to utter a sound, his spiritual power vanished, and the system gave no response!

Bai Ke began to feel afraid, his memories started to fade, and he curled up to one side...

Phoenix watched Bai Ke's body nervously. He seemed to be gradually losing consciousness, sitting cross-legged blankly, with only his faint breathing proving that he was still alive.

But this is precisely the ominous reaction, for it is a sign that he is about to be assimilated and devoured by chaos. Although Bai Ke will not die, he will also never wake up!

"Could it be that this kid failed! Alas, I underestimated the danger of fusing with the Broken Heart of Chaos. After all, no one has ever done it before, and he is just such a weak cultivator. Even if he has some luck, alas!" Phoenix muttered to himself, somewhat disappointed and regretful.

In his mind, Bai Ke's memories had completely vanished, just like an infant, his mind was a blank.

Who am I? Bai Ke recalled painfully, clutching his head in his hands.

He didn't know how much time had passed when suddenly a pair of hands appeared in his mind! What were these? His father Bai Yan's hands! Beside him was his deceased mother, smiling kindly at him.

"Ke'er! Ke'er!" His father and mother called his name again and again.

"Brother Bai!" In the blink of an eye, Xin'er and Ling Xin'er appeared in front of him, along with Su Ziyuan, Zhao Xueqian, and everyone from Tian Ce Palace...

"My name is Bai Ke? I...I'm Bai Ke...Yes! I'm Bai Ke! I remember now!"
