Chapter 418: Will It Go Crazy?
Chapter 418: Will It Go Crazy?
As the feathers lost their radiance, the massive phoenix bird crawled within the Imperial City.
The blazing flames extinguished, leaving behind lingering heat.
Ling Xi True Man stood on the charred black earth, and even now, she still couldn't be sure if this powerful demon had truly perished.
She and Nie Jun had encountered this demon on their way back, and despite their combined efforts, they couldn't hold out for even half a day.
Amidst the raging inferno and the clash with the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Dao Palace...
Ling Xi even felt a sense of helplessness, as if she couldn't intervene in that scene, which left her with a deep impression, making the current spectacle seem somewhat comical.
The domineering phoenix's fierce flames and the silver armor that even the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Sword Art couldn't break through.
It gave people a sense of despair and powerlessness.
Then, this phoenix demon was crushed to death, its neck stepped on by a youth holding an alchemy furnace.
"..."
When Ling Xi saw Shen Yi tearing off the crimson phoenix's flesh and storing it separately in storage treasures, the sense of absurdity became even stronger.
A terrifying demon capable of destroying heaven and earth was in the youth's hands, like a roasted chicken being torn apart at will.
She shook her head, feeling a bit dazed.
Although others hadn't witnessed the battle between the Spirit Emperor and Nie Jun like Ling Xi had, just the aftermath of the youth's sword shattering the grand array was enough to shock them.
There was no need to question the strength of this powerful demon.
The only explanation for its absurd death was that its opponent was even more terrifying!
Li Qingfeng watched as Shen Yi completely stored the fire phoenix in a storage treasure, and his eyes momentarily froze. The storage treasures the youth had taken out were so varied, some from Great Tian, some from Green Hill, some from Xuan Guang Cave and Phoenix Mountain, and some from unknown minor powers.
Who would carry so many bags on their person?
Was he carrying all his possessions with him everywhere?
"Wait, no."
Li Qingfeng slapped his forehead, "I almost forgot about Senior Brother Nie."
As Shen Yi cleaned up the aftermath...
In the clouds above, Nie Jun stared at the scene below, his expression rapidly changing.
Only now did he finally understand why Shen Yi, even after being struck by the Demon Command Golden Arrow, could casually utter a word and scare away the Divine Wind Demon King.
Perhaps only the demons and devils shrouded in Shen Yi's killing intent could truly understand how formidable he was.
It seemed he had misjudged the situation.
Nie Jun slowly retracted his gaze and suddenly noticed the woman standing with her hands behind her back.
Ye Wenxuan stared indifferently at the scene below.
She appeared calm and composed.
However, her hands behind her back were tightly clenched, emitting a crisp cracking sound.
"Ha, no."
Nie Jun couldn't hold back a laugh, and as he touched the wound inflicted by the Spirit Emperor, he couldn't help but gasp.
But the scorching pain couldn't stop his laughter.
Whenever Shen Yi was involved, the words his master spoke would have to be swallowed back, making it all the more amusing.
"What's so funny?"
Ye Wenxuan turned to look at him, her expression unperturbed, "Is it that amusing? You've completely crushed that dog's hopes."
It must be said that Shen Yi's strength far exceeded her imagination.
This crimson-eyed azure phoenix was undoubtedly the most powerful being within the Southern Yang Sect, only trapped here.
But under Shen Yi's relentless assault, its proud demonic body and tenacious vitality, which even the Demon Command Golden Arrow couldn't completely seal, seemed somewhat ridiculous.
Below the Returning Void Realm, Ye Wenxuan couldn't imagine any other means to suppress that youth.
To be able to find a pile of random items within the Southern Yang Sect, where the Dao was severed, and cultivate them all to perfection, this was beyond a simple matter of 'talent'.
However, if the old dog fails to retrieve the lost item from within the Nan Yang Sect, and with the extermination of demons, no one will be left to guard the treasure site. This is akin to the human cultivators reclaiming most of the Nan Yang Sect's heritage.
This means that within a thousand years, human cultivators will emerge like bamboo shoots after the rain, with a large number of Soul Transformation Realm cultivators reaching perfection. They will then seek ways to forge the Palace Sealing Artifact from the Artifact Pavilion.
At that time, the old dog will most likely watch helplessly as over a dozen, or even several dozen Return to Void Realm cultivators, enter that grand hall in an orderly fashion.
"Desperate dogs jump over walls; it's gone mad."
At this point, Ye Wenxuan's voice carried a heavy sense of death.
For so many years, she dared not make a move, fearing that the old dog would discover her lack of progress.
"Now, who among you is qualified to hold this Dao Token?"
Ye Wenxuan took out the simply designed Dao Token and carefully caressed it with her fingertips.
The Return to Void Realm is the minimum requirement to activate the Dao Token.
"Or can you lead the old dog away for me?"
Ye Wenxuan suddenly clenched the Dao Token. If the old dog takes action personally, the first thing it will do is use all means to find her and then kill her.
She had personally witnessed the terror of that beast.
In the most prosperous period of Wutong Mountain, there were three Return to Void Realm powerhouses.
At that time, they were full of confidence and didn't even consider fleeing; instead, they planned to openly inherit the leadership of the Nan Yang Sect.
Therefore, they first renamed it to the Nan Yang Sect and then planned to enter and eliminate the old dog within the inner sect.
However, on the second day after they announced the name change, Zhang Laifu, against everyone's expectations, left the Thousand Demons Cave. In just six hours, he left only a handful of survivors on Wutong Mountain.
This was because these few people sensed the situation and managed to escape quickly.
Since then, Ye Wenxuan had changed her mind.
She had been cautious all her life, afraid to leave any hidden injuries, not letting the old dog know any of her methods, just to ensure that she could stall the old dog for a while and still have the strength to successfully escape the Nan Yang Sect.
"What's the point of telling me this? I can't defeat that phoenix bird."
Nie Jun finally stopped laughing and said seriously, "He's not your disciple, just as you don't need to consider his life in your plan, he also doesn't need to care about your affairs."
This was the first time Nie Jun had spoken so much to a woman since the last incident.
He slowly got up, took the Dao Token from Ye Wenxuan's hand, and said calmly, "Let's go."
After saying this, Nie Jun descended directly from the clouds.
With the addition of the Dao Token, Ye Wenxuan would undoubtedly become the old dog's primary target. However, if the Dao Token were held by another person, the situation would become unpredictable.
This was his final repayment of the master-disciple debt.
As for why it was the last...
His master, who had witnessed the old dog's power, must have also seen this phoenix bird.
Yet, the old dog never mentioned it.
It was simply to watch Shen Yi suffer, or even perish.
The woman only saved herself and didn't bother with Qingfeng and Ling Xi below, tsk.
Nie Jun wasn't truly dull-witted; he was just too lazy to think.
"..."
Ye Wenxuan watched as the figure descended.
She slowly frowned.
If she had reacted like this earlier, there would have been no need to go through such a big detour.
She hesitated for a moment, removed the conspicuous white robe from her body, and carefully performed a concealment technique before disappearing from her original spot.
She could only hope that the old dog would hesitate for a while longer and not be provoked by any more stimuli, leaving a glimmer of hope.
