Chapter 286: Life and Death

As Pierce slowly pressed his hand on the Phoenix’s head, the flames did not cause him any harm. Instead, he could feel a warmth that penetrated his heart through the protective barrier.
These flames were made of very powerful elements that could attack and heal. He wondered if this monster would still have the ability after transforming into an undead.
Because the death element and the creature’s element were not compatible, Pierce did not know what would happen if he forced them.
However, there was no harm in trying. After all, this was Pierce’s only option to obtain the other party’s ability. His group had already severely injured the other party, which meant that the other party’s favorability would never increase.
Even if he could increase the affinity, he did not want to use this method because it was too troublesome. Who knew how long it would take to cultivate a good favorability.
Pierce slowly cut a wound on the Phoenix’s head and injected his death element into its body.
Because Pierce was very experienced in creating undead with bodies, he did not choose to turn this Phoenix into a skeleton undead.
He just had to invade its brain and destroy its consciousness.
Pierce was becoming more and more familiar with this method, and had trained in using many techniques to further enhance its execution.
This was why Pierce had to cut the other party’s head first and not anywhere else.
Because this was the closest place to the brain, Pierce could better preserve the other party’s body.
Accompanied by the death aura, thick elements mixed into the other party’s mind. The Phoenix’s huge body was struggling on the death’s door, stirring up waves of dust, making Pierce and the others involuntarily move away.
Then, in Pierce’s perception, the other party’s soul strength was constantly decreasing. He could sense souls because of Death God’s godhood.
Stripping souls was always the hardest, so Pierce had to wait for about ten minutes before the other party’s body finally lost its soul.
Pierce immediately stopped after this. The most important thing now was to connect his consciousness to the Phoenix, or rather, use death energy to indirectly control it.
Of course, the best choice was to use the Sea of the Dead to completely turn the Phoenix into an undead. But in that case, there seemed to be not many souls to use, so the Sea of the Dead was treated as an ordinary fish pond.
The thick death energy completely fused with the Phoenix.
At this moment, Pierce suddenly realized that the flames on the Phoenix were on the verge of collapse.
However, this was not unexpected. He had some guesses about this situation. After all, he was fusing different elements. If it could succeed, it would be great news for him.
After all, Pierce was very greedy for these life-type abilities and wanted them.
If possible, he even wanted to turn that whale into his undead and obtain its ability through the connection.
Unfortunately, Pierce could not break through the other party’s defense at all, let alone use the scythe to turn the other party into an undead. It was like a fantasy. But now, Pierce finally obtained the Undying Phoenix.
As the flames on the other party slowly extinguished, Pierce increased his control over the death energy. Then, the originally faint flames burned again.
However, what was surprising was that the flames that were ignited again were not golden but black and red. It looked very strange.
Pierce was slightly surprised by the situation before him. He did not know what use these black red flames had. For example, were they the representation of the life elements?
He turned to look at the Elven Queen who was watching from the side.
He knew that the other party was attuned to the elements, so it was best to let her check. He could only feel that the Phoenix was filled with thick death elements.
After a simple check, the Elven Queen gave an answer, which was mixed with certainty and doubt.
She knew that this creature had life elements, but she also felt a powerful death element.
Even she could not believe that these two elements would appear on one creature. This was simply too contradictory.
Pierce was also slightly surprised by the situation. He could feel the other party’s death element, but he did not expect it to have a life element as well. This was a pleasant surprise for him. After all, he would be able to obtain its life element.
At this point, Pierce had completely transformed the Phoenix.
