Chapter 37 . 3: To shed one’s mortal body and exchange one’s bones
Raging Flames Pagoda .
After cultivating continuously without rest, Duanmu Xi finally broke through the Fire Spirit Sovereign and had advanced to the realm of the Fire Spirit Emperor .
As a dazzling red light burst out of her body, the space that she was in once again became smaller .
Suddenly, a shrill cry resonated all around and Duanmu Xi immediately turned to the source of the sound .
All she saw was that in the midst of the pool of flames behind her, there was a fiery bird beckoning her .
It’s flames were beautiful and from its head to its tail, it looked very majestic and elegant while it exuded an extremely powerful fire spirit energy . It was a dazzling sight to behold and she could not pull her eyes away .
This should be the legendary Vermillion Bird Divine Beast .
Duanmu Xi immediately walked towards the pool of flames and very soon, she stood before it .
Purple eyes and she possessed the ability to wield the fire element .
Vermillion Bird’s beak seemed to have hooked upwards and it resembled a smile .
“Aren’t you afraid of these flames?”
Suddenly hearing such a sweet and beautiful voice, Duanmu Xi arched her brows .

“Since this is the place where the Royal Family Duanmu pray to their ancestors, and I and the descendant of the Duanmu family, why should I have any fear? How can my ancestor harm me?”
“Not bad, there’s brains, there’s guts, I did not wait here for you in vain for these few hundred years . ”
The Vermillion Bird nodded its head in appreciation .
…… . what did it mean?
“You’ve been waiting here for me all this while?”
“Yes, and no . ” The Vermillion Bird continued on, “To be more accurate, I’ve been waiting all this while for my Mistress who would form a contract with me . ”
Duanmu Xi seemed to have understood her meaning and nodded her head .

“Then let’s do this contract quickly, I feel like going out too . I’ve been here for too, too long . ”
She had been here for so long that she almost forgot what the world outside was like .
“Mn . ”
Duanmu Xi nodded her head and placed a drop of her blood between the brows of the Vermillion Bird .
The life contract was successfully concluded .
Duanmu Xi wiped off the beads of perspiration trickling down her forehead, she had finally succeeded …

After the two had concluded the contract, Vermillion Bird was elated when she discovered that not only did Duanmu Xi have a contract with her, she also had a contract with both the Water Qilin as well as the ancient sprite .
This was too shocking, she could already predict how brilliant her Mistress’ future would be .
“Mistress, the pool of flames here has the effect of washing the marrows and transforming the veins . You can wash away all the impurities within your body and you can cultivate with ease in the future and the speed would also be faster . It’s just that this process will be very painful . Mistress, you… . ”
Before Vermillion Bird could finish her words, she saw that Duanmu Xi had already walked into the centre and sat down in a lotus position .
As time went on, cold sweat started pouring out and Duanmu Xi’s face started to contort and she looked like she was enduring an overwhelming amount of excruciating pain .
“Ahhhhhh!”
Not knowing how much time had passed, Duanmu Xi suddenly opened her eyes and shouted towards the sky .
