Ashura, as the patriarch of the Spirit Beast tribe and possessing immense power, remained unfazed even when facing the Demon Emperor.
However, in the presence of Su Qiannai, a mere human who had only just reached the Immortal realm, his expression was one of extreme pressure and disarray.
His lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.
After a long while, he lowered his head and said, "Lord Heavenly Phoenix, you are aware of the past between the Sacred Dragon and our tribe."
"This has always been a great humiliation for our tribe. How could I give up this opportunity to exact revenge today!"
Su Qiannai said coldly, "I don't remember what happened back then, nor am I interested in knowing."
"But even if the Sacred Dragon slaughtered our tribe in ancient times, it has nothing to do with Wu Tian!"
"Therefore, you cannot act rashly against Wu Tian today. If you disobey, it means you have rebellious intentions, and you know the consequences!"
Ashura choked abruptly. His face turned from pale to flushed, but in the end, he was speechless and could only remain silent.
Seeing this, Wu Tian couldn't help but feel surprised.
Su Qiannai was truly an extraordinary woman. In the current dire situation, she had managed to resolve all difficulties by stepping forward.
Such composure was truly admirable.
However, at the same time, he felt deeply puzzled.
Su Qiannai had not yet truly awakened the power of the Heavenly Phoenix, so she was not a true Heavenly Phoenix.
If Ashura were ruthless and killed Su Qiannai then and there, it would not have been difficult.
But why was Ashura so obedient to Su Qiannai?
Before he could ponder further, Su Qiannai continued, "Do you have anything else to say? If not, then let me speak."
"I have come to the Spirit Beast tribe today for two matters. The first is about the Sacred Dragon's treasure. As for the second matter..."
Her gaze swept downwards: "Does the patriarch have a method for me to awaken?"
Upon hearing this, Ashura was startled, then his eyes widened as he said, "Lord Heavenly Phoenix, are you referring to the Nirvana Platform?"
"Nirvana Platform?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Su Qiannai's brows furrowed slightly, and she then said, "What do you mean by the Nirvana Platform?"
Ashura knew that Su Qiannai had lost her memory, so he said, "The Nirvana Platform is our tribe's sacred artifact, and it is also your cultivation place, Lord Heavenly Phoenix."
"The Heavenly Phoenix needs to undergo nine nirvanas to achieve the true phoenix form. So, if there is anything closely related to you, it is only this..."
Su Qiannai knew that the so-called Nirvana Platform was definitely the method of awakening.
Therefore, without any hesitation, she immediately said, "If that is the case, then you should take me there."
"The sooner the awakening, the better. If the Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Dragon cannot reappear in the world, then the catastrophe in the world will be unavoidable."
Hearing this, Ashura subconsciously clenched his fists, and a hint of bitterness appeared on his face.
But he did not say much and quickly nodded, "If the Heavenly Phoenix can awaken, it would naturally be a great thing for us."
"If that is the case, then please follow me!"
Afterward, Ashura led the two to the Nirvana Platform.
The Nirvana Platform was translucent, as if cast from glazed glass. Its shape resembled both a lotus flower and a flame, appearing as if it could dance in the wind at any moment.
An ancient and mysterious aura emanated from the Nirvana Platform, and the entire world seemed to be enveloped by this aura, filled with a sense of pressure.
Upon seeing the Nirvana Platform, Su Qiannai's brows also furrowed slightly, her gaze lost in thought.
From this Nirvana Platform, she felt a familiar sensation.
Countless images flashed through her mind, but she could not see them clearly, yet they felt so real.
Ashura said, "Lord Heavenly Phoenix, our tribe does not know the method of awakening, so we cannot help with the subsequent matters. We can only act as guardians."
"As for the specifics, I'm afraid you will only know once you ascend it yourself."
Su Qiannai glanced at Wu Tian. After receiving his encouragement, she said no more and leaped into the center of the Nirvana Platform.
She sat cross-legged, closed her eyes to meditate, and the power of the Heavenly Phoenix immediately flowed out like water, covering the entire Nirvana Platform.
At this moment, something incredible happened.
A wondrous fluctuation emanated from the Nirvana Platform, and then the glazed petals began to burn with purple flames on their own!
This fire lotus looked so magnificent. Its flames rose dozens of meters high, forming several walls of fire that blocked Su Qiannai from the ground.
Seeing this, the Spirit Beasts present all knelt down, their attitudes exceptionally devout.
Wu Tian naturally understood that the awakening ritual had begun.
He couldn't help but feel nervous.
After all, the power of the Heavenly Phoenix was an extremely important force for all living beings.
Therefore, Su Qiannai had to succeed. If she failed...
Before Wu Tian could finish his thoughts, an anomaly occurred!
Several figures among the Spirit Beasts suddenly shot up into the sky!
Then, they unleashed palm strikes, sending streaks of black immortal energy towards the Nirvana Platform!
This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Their abilities were not low, but at this moment, they seemed to have lost their minds, and not a single person reacted.
It was Wu Tian who reacted swiftly. He cultivated lightning techniques, so his speed was faster than others. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a streak of lightning and appeared on the Nirvana Platform.
"Hmph!"
He roared, unleashing his palms like dragons, and instantly, lightning surged forth, colliding fiercely with the black immortal energy.
These attackers were generally at the level of Six-Star Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Although Wu Tian's body had recovered and was no longer in danger after a short period of rest, he still felt a significant shock from such a collision.
He felt a tremor within his body, his face turned pale, and he fell from the air to the ground.
However, fortunately, the attack was successfully blocked.
Upon landing, Wu Tian glared at Ashura and said, "Ashura, what is the meaning of this!"
Ashura was still in shock. Hearing Wu Tian's accusation, he suddenly understood that Wu Tian considered him the instigator.
He frowned and said, "What does this have to do with me? I have no idea what happened!"
"Nonsense! You..." Wu Tian was about to retort, but at this moment, he was horrified to discover that those people still intended to attack Su Qiannai!
Wu Tian was injured and could not quickly summon his immortal energy.
Rumble! Rumble!
Those individuals were clearly eager for quick results. They directly extracted their potent immortal energy and attacked the Nirvana Platform again!
