--- Chapter 369 ---
Bi Ji, as the Azure Phoenix, is completely different from her previous self as the Emerald Swan. After all, one is a noble Phoenix, and the other is just a waterbird with the blood of one.
Of course, the most important part about this evolution is not just that the
Ten Thousand Beast Flame didn't just trigger [Nirvana] for Bi Ji, but also allowed her to rebuild her once-weak foundation.
Yes, this doesn't mean Bi Ji lost her cultivation. If evolving means getting weaker, wouldn't that be a joke?
---
[Name: Bi Ji]
[Race: Spirit Beast (Species: Azure Phoenix)]
[Age: 28+]
[Cultivation: 500,000 years old (Foundation Rebuilt)]
[Innate Talent: Nirvana (Cooldown), Sky Dominator, Azure Phoenix's Flame (Ultimate), Azure Phoenix's Wind (Ultimate)]
[Unique Ability: Life Recovery, Life Energy Manipulation, Undying True Avatar (Locked)]
[Description: Bi Ji is the Mistress of the Star Dou Forest, also known as the 'Kindest Spirit Beast' of all, helping those poor, injured spirit beasts with a gentle personality. Yet, deep down, she always felt weak and inferior because her species, Emerald Swan, possesses little to no fighting prowess.
Even though Bi Ji has reached the Ferocious Level and survived the Heavenly Tribulation five times, she discovered that her origin couldn't change without external stimulation.
She searched for a fruitful chance, again and again. Unfortunately, ten thousand years of searching yielded no result until she encountered a young human with monstrous ability, whether it was combat prowess or bizarre abilities such as summoning the Heavenly Flame, which can purify and strengthen the spirit beast's bloodline.
At that very moment, Bi Ji knew her time had come. However, she didn't outright request his help; instead, she slowly observed the young human, wanting to understand his vision and him as a person first.
But even Bi Ji didn't realize that the young human's charisma had won her heart over. In the moment between life and death, she entrusted her life to his hand and finally broke out of her inferior cocoon, becoming a majestic and beautiful Azure Phoenix.
Now, Bi Ji one thought, and one thought only, to repay this young human by staying on his side, even becoming his servant, she was very much willing to do it.]

[Nirvana]
[An innate skill that every Phoenix possesses, but only a few can fully master. Bi Ji obtained this skill when experiencing rebirth to become Azure Phoenix!]
[Note: Currently on cooldown, and cannot be activated unless the Azure Phoenix or allies are in danger]
---
[Sky Dominator]
[An innate skill of Azure Phoenix, existed in a form of a domain that slowed and suppressed any flight technique or flying ability in the sky, becoming a true Sky Dominator.]
[Note: This suppression only applies to the sky and becomes weaker as the enemy's strength is higher than the Azure Phoenix]
---
[Azure Phoenix's Flame]
[The flame born from Azure Phoenix's heart, capable of healing injury and burn to a hot temperature of Ultimate Weaker, but infinitely weaker than Divine Phoenix's flame]
---
[Azure Phoenix's Wind]
[The wind carried by the Azure Phoenix's wings, capable of storming the sky, controlled the flow of movement in the sky. It truly is the strongest aspect of Azure Phoenix.]
---
[Life Recovery]
[The once Innate Skill of Emerald Swan, but after Bi Ji evolved into Azure Phoenix, this skill also evolved and became exceedingly powerful to the point of recovering lost limbs and even bringing breath of life to the dead]
[Note: Life Recovery is only effective for five seconds after one dies.]
---
[Life Energy Manipulation]
[Bi Ji's personal skill stemmed from her own terrifying healing prowess; she created a skill that can manipulate Life Energy to enhance her fighting prowess. This ability manifested when she evolved into Azure Phoenix, and she has yet to tap into its full potential.]
---
[Undying True Avatar (Locked)]
[Another personal skill of Bi Ji, which allowed her to enter the state of undying by constantly healing herself in a fight, numbing pain, and converting her healing power into extreme physical prowess like a withered leaf in the fall]

'Bi Ji's skillsets have gone through a qualitative change,' Han Yuan stated inwardly while gazing at the eager woman before him. 'Once she grasped her Azure Phoenix's innate skills, she wouldn't be much inferior to Di Tian.'
"So, what's your answer?" Bi Ji asked again, putting on a playful smile on her goddess-like face.
"Bi Ji, you..." Di Tian was stunned and stared at the 'new' Bi Ji with a complicated look. Honestly, he did not expect her to make such a grand declaration to follow Han Yuan.
Even though the relationship between Di Tian and Bi Ji hasn't developed to 'that' direction because the majority of the time they spent in the Lake of Life was slumbering for the right era, the way spirit beasts in the Star Dou Forest called Bi Ji 'mistress' is self-explanatory when Di Tian is the Beast God.
So, seeing Bi Ji so eager to be with Han Yuan made Di Tian feel awkward and complicated.
No, it's akin to a loss.
"Di Tian, I made up my mind," Bi Ji said calmly. "Please don't stop me."
Seeing Bi Ji's serious look, Di Tian's heart settled down as he finally sighed, "Alright, I understand."
Although Di Tian felt like he had lost his chance with Bi Ji, he also couldn't afford to focus on romantic affairs when he had to carry so many burdens as the Beast God.
Ultimately, Di Tian gave up and allowed Bi Ji to do what she wanted. He, at least, owed her this much.
"I've never said I need a maid," Han Yuan suddenly said, stunning Di Tian and Bi Ji.
'Bro, I literally gave up my happiness!' Di Tian was speechless. He felt like beating Han Yuan right now. After all, they were 'loosely' considered love rivals, though one side didn't have a winning chance.
Han Yuan feigned to Di Tian's glare and added, "However, since Bi Ji was so eager, it depends on her performance."
"Yes!" Bi Ji beamed with an azure-green light, which reflected on Di Tian's golden eyes.
"Uugh, so green..." Di Tian covered his face, feeling somewhat flustered by them.
Di Yating witnessed all of these with a hopeless look, "As expected of Han Yuan, even when he was doing something random, he somehow charmed another woman."
"This trait is so terrifying..."
"What a poor brother of mine. He doesn't stand a chance at all."
What Di Yating didn't know is that the Douluo Continent, or in fact, the whole Douluo Star, is very much cursed by a certain deity of love.
So-called affection could grow like a wholesale cabbage here.
Han Yuan, being the protagonist, is like a damn fire to moths. He doesn't have control over his charm.
Then, again, with what Han Yuan has done the past couple of months, it's hard not to catch the attention of so many female ferocious spirit beasts.
These ferocious spirit beasts are no different than thirsty succubus, and once they transform into their human form, their beauty is definitely top-notch in this world.
'I really need to address this growing harem soon.' Meanwhile, Han Yuan is sighing like no tomorrow inside.
'As for Di Tian... I felt bad for him, so let's give bro a harem of True Dragon wives to revive the Dragon Clan in the future.'
'Di Tian, the future of the Dragon Clan lies within you! Do your very best, buddy!'

After the whole ordeal with Bi Ji, Han Yuan finally started training Na'er, the human clone of Silver Dragon King. This girl had been pestering him for a few days, and he knew it was the Silver Dragon King's doing.
Hmph, Silver Dragon King, the advantage is mine!
