Andrius was a cultivator at the Aureate Immortal Grand Culmination stage, and with the constant nurturing of the Divine Realm’s Alpha Wolf King’s bloodline, his soul had grown terrifyingly strong.As for the phoenix, although it was a divine being, it had died long ago. It only managed to maintain its existence using its true flame by relying on its remaining soul energy. However, since it had been a long time since its death, its soul energy had greatly weakened.Furthermore, it had wasted significant energy controlling previous intruders before Andrius, leading to its defeat today.“Heh…”After realizing that, the phoenix apparition let out a cold laugh. “I was careless, but if you think you can kill me, you’re mistaken. This isn’t over. We’ll meet again!”Then, the phoenix apparition began to retreat. However, it suddenly felt an irresistible suction from behind pulling it back. No matter how much it struggled, it could not escape. When it turned around, he was horrified to s
Rustle...As the slaves awakened, they immediately surrounded Andrius from all directions, ready to fight him to the death.Andrius frowned.These people were nothing but pitiful souls, unlike him, who had been relatively fortunate.Swoosh—Andrius had only hesitated for a moment when a figure suddenly lunged at him, throwing a punch at his back ruthlessly.He noticed the power behind this punch was not particularly strong and soon realized why.The fact that these people were enslaved by the Phoenix apparition meant that they were not strong to begin with. After all, would the strong be so easily subdued?Furthermore, after being enslaved, they existed in the form of mummies, causing their strength to wane and weaken.Thus, Andrius had an idea!Whoosh—The moment the punch was about to hit Andrius, a powerful surge of soul energy hit him.“Wake up!”The explosive shout was like a bucket of cold water, instantly stopping the attacker in his tracks.Then, Andrius used even
By all logic, the Phoenix should have completely perished.“Of course, that’s just a legend.”The person chuckled and shook his head. “We’re only speculating based on some clues. The truth lies inside the hall.”Andrius nodded and did not dwell on the issue.Whether it was alive or not, he would know soon enough.Of course, if the Phoenix was truly alive, the outcome would be disastrous. The Phoenix, surviving since ancient times, would be unimaginably terrifying.Regardless, Andrius had to take this journey for Luna’s sake.After calming down, he strode forward and pushed the doors open. However, as soon as he placed his hands on the door, he found that they were firmly sealed. It radiated a faint heat, making it impossible to budge.Andrius frowned slightly.Could there be some kind of mechanism within the doors?Immediately, he took a few steps back, gathered his immortal essence, and pushed his palms out.Boom—The deafening roar echoed in everyone’s ears.However, the
He finally found it!Surely, such a massive ancient Phoenix corpse should be able to yield diving Phoenix blood for Luna, right?Andrius took a deep breath and instructed, “Everyone, please stand guard for me.”“Rest assured. As long as we’re here, no one will disturb you.”“That’s right. Anyone who wants to disrupt you will have to step over our dead bodies first.”“Do what you need to do. Leave the rest to us.”The hundred or so people expressed their thoughts.Andrius nodded, composed himself, and sat in front of the Phoenix’s remains.The next second, a flame emerged from his forehead. He swiftly engulfed the Phoenix’s remains, refining them with intense heat.Rumble—A fierce fire burst out from inside the mound.It was the remnants of the Phoenix’s true fire, resisting Andrius’ divine fire.However, Andrius had absorbed a fragment of the Phoenix’s soul earlier and used its essence to evolve his Divine Realm wolf blood, significantly enhancing his strength.Now, he wa
“Do you know the terrifying price of betraying a god?”With those words, the surroundings were engulfed in a sea of flames.Fire was the Phoenix’s innate element!At its level, it only needed a single thought to transform the surroundings into an ocean of flames, helping it kill, trap enemies, or countless other uses.“Oh, no! Andrius has been controlled by its soul!”“Quick! All of us must join forces and drive it out.”“Don’t hold back and use your most powerful techniques.”“Attack!”The people harbored hatred for the ancient Phoenix and gratitude to Andrius for saving them, so they quickly worked together.Swoosh!Whoosh!Swish!In an instant, the hall was filled with surging winds.Sword energy soared to the sky, sharp and deadly, brimming with boundless killing intent. Fists, powerful and unstoppable, smashed with an overwhelming force. Some used forbidden techniques, while others unleashed their ultimate abilities.At that moment, they were as united as ever.The
”Roar!”Just as the Phoenix Bell rang out, a high-pitched dragon roar suddenly resounded in Andrius’ mind.At the same time, a dragon apparition appeared, lunging at the Phoenix apparition in his consciousness.The ancient Phoenix never anticipated Andrius’ body to contain the soul fragment of a dragon. Forced to retreat, it quickly exited his body.After driving back the Phoenix’s soul, the dragon coiled around Andrius, forming a powerful barrier that also ignited with blazing flames.These were the flames unique to dragons—true dragon fire.It was what Ophelia left to him.After the true dragon fire appeared, it immediately countered the Phoenix’s true fire outside, creating a standoff between the two mighty flames.The confrontation was intense, filling the air with sharp, crackling sounds.After a brief moment, the ancient Phoenix saw the source of the divine dragon apparition and sneered. “How dare a mere divine dragon fragment challenge me? Today, I’ll reduce you to ashe
“The Phoenix Divine Plume...”The person recalled and explained, “As the name suggests, it’s the wings of the ancient Phoenix transformed after its death. Its power and uses are limitless.“I noticed you carry wolf blood inside you, so you should be able to integrate this item for your own use. Senior, you saved my life. With nothing else to repay you, I offer you this information as a form of gratitude.”The Phoenix Divine Plume...It indeed sounded incredibly powerful.Andrius nodded and said, “Lead the way. I’ll take a look.”“Let’s go.”Not long after, he led Andrius to a side hall.He briefly introduced, “There was originally a restriction set by the ancient Phoenix here. I triggered it and ended up being enslaved by the Phoenix. However, since you already destroyed the ancient Phoenix’s spirit, it should be safe.”Andrius cautiously entered.Whoosh...Sure enough, the next moment, a Phoenix apparition flew toward him.However, Andrius clearly sensed that the apparitio
“The Immortal Demon Palace...”Charles’ eyes narrowed slightly, a clear glint flashing within them.A few seconds later, he said, “I do know of that place. The Immortal Demon Palace is located in a forbidden space at the border between the Immortal Realm and the Demonic Realm. It only appears once every ten thousand years and remains dormant at all other times. No matter how many cultivators search for it, they won’t find it.”Andrius’s heart tightened.It only opened once every ten thousand years. If the timing was not right, that would be a problem.Before he could ask, Charles continued, “According to the rules of the Upper Realm, every time the Immortal Demon Palace opens, the top forces each get three slots to enter. Celestial Blade Sect just so happens to be one of those forces. If you wish to enter, we can arrange it.”That was great news.Andrius nodded. “Thank you, Charles. However, why does what you said differ from what I’ve read in the archive?”According to his mem
