Andrius’ heart skipped a beat when he saw the seven fierce fiends.The first one was a massive dog said to have the ability to devour the moon. It was a terrifying and cruel beast.The second one had the head of a bull and the body of a human. Its sharp horns were stained with blood, hinting at its unusual nature.The third was a nine-tailed fox. It was said that foxes grew an additional tail every thousand years, increasing their cultivation and lifespan, and nine tails represented the peak of its power!The fourth was a monstrous beast known as Depravity, one of the Four Calamities. It bared its fangs at Andrius and opened its massive maw as if ready to devour him at any moment.The fifth one resembled the lightning ichthyosaurus but was distinguished by its larger wings, allowing it to fly.The sixth one was a single-legged bird with blue feathers, resembling a crane. It was a mythological beast known for its ferocity.The seventh one was also an ichthyosaurus, but unlike the
“Die!”“Become our feast! Hahahaha!”“Being eaten by us is your honor!”The fiends started to grow arrogant when they got the upper hand.Andrius narrowed his eyes and suddenly thought of something.Earlier, when the aftershocks of their battle rippled into the distance, he sensed a powerful aura from the distance. That aura was unmistakably similar to the one he felt on his wings. It was the phoenix!“Attack!”Andrius immediately made a decisive move, launching a desperate attack toward the earth ichthyosaurus.He cast a spear technique with the supreme-grade Linebreaker Overlord that was enhanced by the powerful phoenix’s divine flame and the burning of wolf blood!Then, the laws of time carved open a path, catching the earth ichthyosaurus off guard.Bam!In the next moment, Andrius struck the earth ichthyosaurus fiercely. The impact sent the earth ichthyosaurus sprawling on the ground. However, at the same time, several other fiends’ attacks landed on Andrius.“Blergh…”
Andrius wanted to witness the abilities of that Divine Emperor-level phoenix, so he stopped and watched closely.Swoosh!A powerful spatial ripple surged forward in an instant, causing even Andrius to feel uneasy.Half a second later, the ripple covered a vast distance, and the lightning ichthyosaurus suddenly froze. Even the nine-tailed fox, the earth ichthyosaurus, and the other fiends froze where they were.The Divine Emperor phoenix had used a powerful technique—a spatial seal.Andrius knew that the Void Thunder Dragon had that ability but did not expect the Divine Emperor-level phoenix to wield it as well, so he was shocked.Fortunately, he knew now. Otherwise, if he ever had to fight against one, it could easily put him at a great disadvantage.While Andrius was lost in thought, the Divine Emperor phoenix moved again. Like a ghost, it annihilated all the eight beasts in one swoop, and not a single one of them survived.The power of a Divine Emperor-level phoenix was truly
Alaric nodded. “Go ahead, then. The place is over there.”He pointed in a direction and said, “You need to master the laws of lighting to navigate that place. I can’t enter, so you’re on your own.”If he could not enter, that was even better!Andrius then put on an air of false bravado and said, “That’s a shame. It looks like I’ll have to enter alone. I’ll go now, Alaric.”“Go ahead,” Alaric said, flapping his wings.Andrius immediately headed straight for the area.Crackle...The entrance looked narrow, with constant flashes of lightning and a faint but powerful aura emanating from within that even Andrius could feel. That was definitely the place.Andrius raised his hand, and countless lightning serpents wrapped around his arm. Ever since absorbing the lightning ichthyosaurus’ essence, he had been able to wield the power of lightning.The next second, the lightning at the entrance resonated with his before enveloping him. The lightning continued to travel along his body, sen
This made Andrius feel uncomfortable.However, he suppressed those emotions and asked, “Why are you here, Alaric?”Alaric stared directly at the Abyss Python, his expression grave. “I sensed the presence of the natural enemy, so I came here. You and I are both members of the Phoenix clan. It’s incredibly rare to meet one of our own, and I may never have the fortune to meet another one in my life. I can’t stand by and watch you get into trouble.”Andrius was stunned, deeply moved by his words.In the Upper Realm, betrayal was common, and conflicts often arose from the distribution of benefits, even between families.However, Alaric...He had only met Andrius once, yet came without hesitation to protect Andrius.That was almost unheard of.Andrius also felt a pang of guilt.After all, he was not truly a member of the Phoenix clan and only possessed a trace of their bloodline. He felt guilty!There was a powerful enemy in front of him, though. Now was not the time for guilt.At
Secondly, he had been injured by the lightning when he broke into the space and only had about half his strength left.Thus, Alaric wanted to go all in for a close-range attack.“Die!”The next second, with immense speed, he approached the Abyss Python until they were less than ten meters apart.At their level, ten meters could be covered in just the blink of an eye.As he shouted, he opened his mouth and spewed out a different flame. It was divine fire made of his own life-force, far more powerful than the regular Phoenix’s true flame.“Naïve!”Unexpectedly, the Abyss Python was not intimidated by Alaric’s sudden attack. Instead, its eyes filled with disdain.Alaric instantly had a premonition.Before he could understand...Whoosh...The next second, a brilliant force surged.Alaric’s speed abruptly slowed, as if time had stopped.Oh no! It was the laws of time!Alaric was shocked.He had forgotten about this ability. Now he was in trouble.Swoosh—The Abyss Python us
These three were bad news.Andrius immediately became wary and hid his own aura.Then, he cautiously and silently crept toward their direction, trying to locate them.After traveling for several miles, he heard the sounds of fighting.He had fought against them before, so he could instantly recognize that one side was the Hidden Monarch, Violet Thunderlord, and Blood Demon Lord.The aura of the other party was strange. Andrius had never met them before.However, it was not hard to tell that the other part was a powerful fiend.The overwhelming presence from it was imposing and stirred a deep sense of awe.Then, Andrius used a treasure he got from the Void Thunder Dragon to conceal his aura and made his approach.With how powerful the three were, he had to be extremely careful.If they found him and attacked him at once, he would be in trouble.After half an hour, Andrius found a perfect spot completely out of the trio’s line of sight and well-concealed by a powerful aura, ma
Now that they were planning to hunt down Depravity, he needed to think of a plan.However, the trio’s strength was formidable, so he only had one chance to strike.After making his move, he would have to flee immediately, no matter if it succeeded.The best outcome was to help Depravity and severely injure or even kill one or two of the three.Since that would be extremely challenging considering their strength, Andrius ruled it out.The next best scenario was to disrupt their plans, preventing them from killing Depravity and escaping unscathed.That way, he could ruin their goal, protect himself, and gain Depravity as an ally.After thinking about it, Andrius found the second option to be more feasible.Now that he had made up his mind, he began preparing.As the Hidden Monarch and the others attacked, Andrius memorized all their moves in case he had to face them head-on later.Another half an hour passed.The Hidden Monarch’s group had expended a lot of energy, and Depravi
