Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 2093: Stroke of Luck

Back when Xu Wendong was in the Zhao Family’s Nether Crystal Vein, he unexpectedly obtained that Netherworld Beast.

Since then, it has been in a state of near neglect.

This Netherworld Beast didn’t trouble Xu Wendong; most of the time it was asleep. Xu Wendong hid the little beast well, and no one discovered it.

Unexpectedly, this little beast suddenly emerged now.

Not only that, but it also swallowed something from the Treasure Ore in one gulp.

“This…”

“Where did this Netherworld Beast come from!”

The Ying sisters, Ying Youwei and Ying Youlu, were both astonished. Netherworld Beasts were not welcome in the Netherworld, and few people would keep such ferocious creatures as pets.

Moreover, the nature of the Netherworld Beasts is extremely savage and they cannot be tamed, which is the biggest issue.

The sudden emergence of a Netherworld Beast shocked the sisters.

“Quick, kill it!”

“Go find the Elder!”

The sisters shouted in unison, but Xu Wendong shook his head and stopped them.

“No need, it’s my Netherworld Beast.”

Xu Wendong said calmly, leaving the sisters with looks of surprise on their faces.

“Brother Xu, this is your Netherworld Beast?”

“How could it be? Aren’t Netherworld Beasts untamable? They’re ultimately just beasts and can’t truly submit.”

“Even if a Netherworld Beast has intelligence, it would never yield to humans.”

Ying Youwei was incredulous, but after the Netherworld Beast swallowed something from the Treasure Ore, its body underwent a miraculous transformation; what looked like a tiny chick instantly expanded several times in size. Then its body shivered, shedding all its feathers.

A flame spread over it, and moments later, it burned into a pile of ashes.

This situation left Xu Wendong and the Ying sisters dumbfounded.

“What happened?”

“Did it burn to death?”

“This Netherworld Beast was too greedy, swallowing the treasure from the Treasure Ore. If the power contained in the treasure was too strong, it could indeed burst and kill it.”

Ying Youlu analyzed the situation, concluding that the little beast was doomed.

However, Xu Wendong heard the Painting Saint exclaim.

“Kid, you really hit the jackpot.”

The Painting Saint said excitedly, “Do you know what that Netherworld Beast is?”

“I don’t know,” Xu Wendong answered truthfully. The little beast had amazed the Painting Saint before, but the Painting Saint didn’t explain, and now he seemed ready to reveal the specifics.

The last time, the Painting Saint had recognized the little creature’s might, and now he was more convinced than ever.

“This Netherworld Beast is a Nine Heavens Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Netherworld Beasts. Once it matures, its wingspan can unleash flames capable of incinerating the heavens, enough to destroy an entire realm.”

“Such a fearsome Netherworld Beast has been extinct for ages. Even in my time, I only heard legends about it.”

“Now I can see it with my own eyes, and what’s more, this Nine Heavens Phoenix is your Nether pet. Truly unjust fate, indeed.”

The Painting Saint’s tone was a bit envious, stunning Xu Wendong.

So the little creature had such an impressive origin?

But now that the Netherworld Beast has burned to ashes, isn’t it all over?

“Elder Painting Saint, the Nine Heavens Phoenix just swallowed a treasure from the Treasure Ore and was reduced to ashes. Isn’t it dead already?” Xu Wendong was shocked, feeling at a loss for a great opportunity!

Such a mighty little beast, just gone like that, left Xu Wendong deeply pained.

“What are you thinking?”

The Painting Saint said disdainfully, “The Nine Heavens Phoenix loves flames inherently; no fire under heaven can reduce it to ashes. If I’m not mistaken, the treasure within the Treasure Ore should be a fire-attributed rare treasure.”

“Precisely because of this, the Nine Heavens Phoenix engulfed it, resulting in the flames.”

“Although the flames have burned it to ashes, check within those ashes and you’ll see.”

Hearing this, Xu Wendong hurried forward without hesitation.

The sisters’ pupils shrank dramatically as they rushed to stop him.

“Brother Xu, don’t…”

Before the sisters could stop him, Xu Wendong had already sifted through the scorching ashes.

Within those ashes appeared a golden egg, glowing with countless flame patterns, exuding a mysterious aura and containing terrifying fire energy. Even as Xu Wendong reached out to touch it, his clothes began to catch fire.

This terrifying power startled everyone around.

“Good thing the Nine Heavens Phoenix has already acknowledged you as its master; otherwise, touching it would have cost you your life,” the Painting Saint said with some jealousy that such a fearsome Netherworld Beast would see Xu Wendong as its owner.

Truly unfair!

The luck Xu Wendong had was wondrous!

Hearing this, Xu Wendong’s face lit up with joy, and he promptly pocketed the egg.

“Elder Painting Saint, will it take a long time for the little chicken to hatch?”

Xu Wendong asked joyfully, since this was one of the Ten Great Netherworld Beasts of the Netherworld, presumed to be immensely powerful. With the little creature having acknowledged him as its master, it could become a huge asset for him.

“Of course, it will take time, however…”

The Painting Saint coyly continued, then chuckled, “For the Nine Heavens Phoenix to truly grow, you need to continually provide it with fire to nourish it. The stronger the fire you provide, the shorter its resurrection time.”

“Also, every time it grows stronger, it undergoes a Nirvana Rebirth, transforming into a golden egg.”

“So if you wish for the Nine Heavens Phoenix’s assistance, you’ll have to work hard.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Wendong took a deep breath. It seemed that he would need to collect some fire elements in addition to the Three-Life Stone Fragments in the future.

Finding such flames in the Netherworld, however, was not an easy task.

“This is going to be troublesome…” Xu Wendong scratched his head. At this moment, Ying Youwei approached, having witnessed the astounding scene where the Netherworld Beast transformed into an egg.

“Brother Xu, is everything alright?”

Ying Youwei asked with some concern, finding it unexpected that Xu Wendong’s Netherworld Beast had devoured a treasure from the Treasure Ore.

The golden glow earlier suggested that the treasure within the Treasure Ore was immensely powerful.

Yet, after the Netherworld Beast consumed it, achieving nothing would be like drawing water with a bamboo basket—completely futile.

“What could be wrong?” Xu Wendong chuckled, then turned to Ying Youwei and asked, “Youwei, do you know of any mystical Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire nearby?”

Faced with this question, Ying Youwei found herself at a loss. Where would she find news about the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire?

“Brother Xu, why are you looking for Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire?”

Ying Youlu stepped forward, seemingly having some knowledge on the matter.

“To be honest, I’m an Alchemist, and as you know, Alchemists need flames to perform Alchemy. The stronger the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, the higher my success rate in Alchemy.”
