This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

"I can tolerate the unlocking fee and talent enhancement fee, but the copyright fee and riding liability fee are a bit excessive, aren't they?"

Jiang Liu poked the system panel in the air with his finger, his tone full of complaints: "So, I have to pay protection money to the Phoenix Clan to buy a transformation and riding ability? This is even more shady than the Dragon Clan's!"

[System Prompt: Copyright fees and riding fees are exclusive rights protections for the Phoenix Clan. Payment of these fees will prevent subsequent legal disputes (Cultivation World Version)]

"Legal disputes exist in the cultivation world?"

Jiang Liu rolled his eyes. If I don't pay the fee, does that mean a bunch of Phoenix Clan elders will come and argue with me after I ascend to immortality?

Holy crap, that's actually possible.

Fine, you win.

Since you're not going to pretend anymore, then I'm not going to pretend either. I'm coming clean: I have a cheat code!

The server is now 0.1% off – let's bring the kids and go for another round of fun!

Jiang Liu gritted his teeth and started spending money.

[10 billion spirit stones have been consumed to unlock the Phoenix Sword Master class and obtain the basic class skill - Phoenix Fire Sword Technique]

The golden phoenix phantom suddenly swooped down, transforming into a stream of blazing light that surged into the river.

Instantly, an inextinguishable flame seemed to ignite in his dantian, and the pure phoenix power flowed along his meridians, perfectly merging with the original spiritual energy within his body.

1000 million spirit stones, take it!

The next second, a system notification followed.

[System Notification: Congratulations on successfully changing your class to Phoenix Sword Master and unlocking your exclusive class panel]

A third panel appeared in front of Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu: “????”

Jiang Liu was slightly taken aback when he saw the newly unlocked exclusive panel, and then immediately stood up for the Phoenix Clan.

Why!
Both are hidden professions and both are divine beasts from the celestial realm, so why is the exclusive stat panel of the Phoenix Sword Master so much weaker than that of the Dragon Sword Master?
Could it be that my great phoenix is ​​inferior to the dragon race?
No, no!

My Phoenix clan is no weaker than the Dragon!

Planner, revise it for me!

"You get what you pay for."

Jiang Liu shook his head, a hint of disappointment showing on his face.

Is it because he can't afford to spend money?

I can afford to pay for it!

You'd better let me keep spending money on in-game purchases!
At the very least, the stats of the Phoenix Sword Master should be raised to the same level as the Dragon Sword Master, right?

Just then, after clearing out the Phoenix Shop and unlocking the Phoenix Sword Master, the final reward realm of this map was also opened.

The final welfare secret realm is where he farms Phoenix Feathers!
[System Notification: Congratulations to the player for unlocking the Phoenix Sword Master class and opening the final reward realm—Phoenix Illusion. Would you like to spend 1 million spirit stones to activate the teleportation?]

"Here you are! We've been waiting for you!"

[1 million spirit stones have been consumed. The Phoenix Illusionary Realm teleportation channel is now open. Would you like to enter immediately?]

【Enter】

A flash of white light, and Jiang Liu felt the scene before him change instantly.

The once lush sycamore forest has disappeared, replaced by a huge platform floating above the sea of ​​clouds.

The platform was surrounded by golden rays of light, and the air was filled with spiritual energy even purer than that of the Phoenix Shop. In the distance, streaks of colorful light occasionally flashed across the sea of ​​clouds, like the phantoms of legendary divine birds.

[System Prompt: Welcome to Phoenix Illusion. This illusion is the exclusive secret realm of the Phoenix Sword Master. You can summon bird projections. Hitting the projections with sword energy will drop feather materials, with the highest drop being the Immortal-grade material—Phoenix Feathers.]

[System Prompt: Summoning a bird projection requires spirit stones. The more spirit stones consumed, the higher the rank of the summoned bird and the greater the chance of obtaining phoenix feathers.]

Jiang Liu: “.”

So this time they're not mining anymore, they're shooting birds instead?
Jiang Liu became interested and turned his attention to the summoning panel that popped up in front of him. It listed different summoning tiers, and the corresponding summoning rank and drop rate for each tier were clearly written.

Tier 1: Bronze Summon (1 million spirit stones/summon)

[Special Reward: 10% chance to drop Phoenix Clan exclusive Immortal Artifact Fragments]

[Note: Bird feathers are special items that can add an attribute to wing items.]

"Hiss! Summoning a Supreme Being costs 5 million spirit stones per time?"

Jiang Liu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but gasp. He wasn't shocked by the price, but by the odds.

Supreme Summoning costs 5 million gold per attempt, with a 10% chance of obtaining Phoenix Feathers!

In other words, it takes 50 billion spirit stones to get a single phoenix feather.
This is such a rip-off!

and also
What does the Bronze Summoner summon?
It summons pigeons and sparrows!

I am!

I shot down several of these things with a slingshot when I was a kid, and now they're telling me it costs 100 million spirit stones to summon one?
Potholes!

"Let's try a Bronze Summoning session."

Jiang Liu first tried a Bronze Summoning, not for any other reason than to relive the fun of his childhood.

[100 million spirit stones have been consumed; Bronze Summoning is now active]

A faint white light flashed, and a gray sparrow projection appeared in front of Jiang Liu.

The sparrow flapped its wings and flew aimlessly in mid-air, looking completely harmless.

"That's it?"

Jiang Liu's lips twitched, and with a casual wave of his hand, a sword aura shot out.

puff!

Shoot the bird!

The sword energy instantly struck the sparrow projection, which turned into a ball of white light and dissipated, leaving behind a gray feather on the ground.

[Obtained Mystic-Rank Material: Sparrow Feather x1]

[Sparrow Feather: Adds 10% to all attributes of wing items, with a maximum of 5 attributes added to each wing]

"Materials to add attributes to wings, but unfortunately, there aren't enough to make it useful."

Jiang Liu shook his head and clicked on Silver Summoning again.

"One more Silver Summon!"

[1000 million spirit stones consumed, Silver Summoning activated]

This time, a projection of a fire crow engulfed in flames appeared. The fire crow let out a piercing cry and swooped down towards Jiang Liu.

"Little tricks!"

Jiang Liu snorted disdainfully, and with a flick of his finger, several Six Meridian Divine Swords shot out simultaneously, accurately hitting the wings and head of the Fire Crow projection.

boom!
The fire crow projection exploded, turning into a ball of flame, leaving two feathers on the ground: one was a red spirit-grade fire crow feather, and the other was an orange treasure-grade fire crow feather.

[Obtained Spirit Rank Material: Fire Raven Feather x1]

[Obtain Treasure Tier Material: Fire Raven Feather x1]

"Hmm, this seems kind of fun."

Jiang Liu chuckled and continued summoning.

[2000 million spirit stones have been consumed; Golden Summoning activated]

A golden light flashed, and the projection of a golden-winged roc with a wingspan of three zhang appeared in mid-air.

The Golden-Winged Roc was covered in golden feathers, its eyes were sharp as knives, and with each flap of its wings it stirred up gusts of wind, exuding a powerful aura.

"Dapeng? Perfect, I'll use you to test my new skill!"

"Phoenix Fire Sword Technique!"

Jiang Liu raised his hand and a fiery sword aura shot out.

The crimson sword energy condensed into a giant longsword, carrying an aura of earth-shattering destruction, and slashed towards the projection of the Golden-Winged Roc.

Clang!
The sword energy collided with the wings of the Golden-Winged Roc, producing a piercing metallic clang.

The Golden-Winged Roc projection let out a reluctant cry, its wings were severed by the sword energy, and it vanished in a ball of golden light, leaving three feathers on the ground.

[Obtained Spirit Rank Material: Golden-Winged Roc Feather x1]

[Obtained Spirit Rank Material: Golden-Winged Roc Feather x1]

[Obtained Spirit Rank Material: Golden-Winged Roc Feather x1]

[Golden-Winged Roc Feather: Adds 30% to all attributes of wing items]

"It's trash too, just for fun in the last King of Glory summoning round."

Jiang Liu muttered something to himself and started to get serious.

[2 million spirit stones have been consumed; King's Summoning has begun]

This time, the summoning panel burst forth with a dazzling golden light, causing the entire Phoenix Illusion to tremble.

Amidst churning clouds and radiant light, the projection of a colossal three-legged golden crow slowly emerged.

This three-legged golden crow had a wingspan of over ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), its entire body was engulfed in the true fire of the sun, radiating a suffocating pressure, as if a miniature sun had descended to earth.

Its three claws were as sharp as knives, its eyes were filled with divine majesty, and its cry was like a thunderclap, making Jiang Liu's eardrums buzz.

"It's...it's a three-legged golden crow!"

Jiang Liu exclaimed excitedly, "The Three-Legged Golden Crow is just a projection, even with all its other features!"

"Phoenix Sword Burns the Heavens!"

boom!
The flaming longsword collided with the projection of the three-legged golden crow, producing a deafening roar.

The true fire of the sun and the true fire of the phoenix intertwined, bursting forth with dazzling light, illuminating the entire Phoenix Illusion.

The three-legged golden crow projection let out a resentful cry, its body gradually dissipating under the slashing of the flaming sword.

When the light faded, two feathers were left on the ground. One was a celestial-grade feather that emitted a golden glow, and the other was a phoenix feather that was entirely crimson and contained the power of the true fire of the sun!
[Obtained Celestial Rank Material: Three-Legged Golden Crow Feather x1]

[Obtained Celestial-Rank Material: Phoenix Feather x1]

Holy crap, I got a Phoenix Feather!
Jiang Liu was so excited he almost jumped up.

I got a Phoenix Feather for 2 million spirit stones. Today was a lucky day!
Five phoenix feathers are needed to forge the Righteous Qi Sword, and now we only need four more!
He happily picked up the phoenix feather, then glanced at the attributes of the three-legged golden crow feather.

【Three-Legged Golden Crow Feather: Adds 100% fire damage to wing items】

"Damn, this is garbage!"

After seeing the attributes of the Three-Legged Golden Crow Feather, Jiang Liu's good mood about getting the Phoenix Feather immediately soured.

100% fire damage, adding 5 makes it 500%, which is pretty good.

But he's not one to play with fire, so it won't work on him!

They gave him a feather that boosts sword damage!
"I'm getting serious, I'm going to get serious!"

Jiang Liu let out a soft breath and turned his gaze to the last summoning option.

5 million spirit stones, Supreme Summoning, Charge!
Phoenix feathers, give them to me!

[5 million spirit stones have been consumed; Supreme Summoning activated]

next second.

A projection of a true phoenix, completely enveloped in true flames and identical to his true phoenix avatar, appeared in mid-air and let out a sharp cry towards him.

"Giggle!"

Huh?
similar?

Wouldn't that cause me to lose a few more feathers?
"Senior True Phoenix, I am Little True Phoenix!"

Jiang Liu shouted at the projection of the ten-thousand-foot-long True Phoenix, and then immediately transformed into a True Phoenix himself.

Jiang Zhenhuang, come out!
"Three Elements Flying Immortal Sword!"

Hey, Old Deng, give Little Deng some gold coins!
The True Phoenix Elder probably didn't expect its junior to attack it, and before it could react, its projection was destroyed.

Crash.

Three feathers fell to the ground!
[Obtained Celestial Rank Material: True Phoenix Feather x1]

[Obtained Celestial Rank Material: True Phoenix Feather x1]

[Obtained Celestial-Rank Material: Phoenix Feather x1]

Another phoenix feather has appeared!
A 10% probability is so realistic!

Not only does it have one phoenix feather, but it also has two immortal-grade true phoenix feathers!

Old Deng, remember my scent. After I ascend, I'll repay you with a full set of feathers! (End of Chapter)
