Chapter 418: Will It Go Crazy? (Two-thirds fake)
Chapter 418: Will It Go Crazy? (Two-thirds fake)
As the feathers lost their luster, a gigantic phoenix bird crouched in the imperial city.
The blazing flames dissipated, leaving only lingering warmth.
Lingxi Zhenren stood on the charred black soil, and even at this moment, she dared not confirm if this powerful demon beast was truly dead.
She and Nie Jun had returned together and encountered this brute along the way.
With the enhancement of their magical robes, the two had exhausted all their means but could only hold out for half a day.
Amidst the fiery sky and the collision of the Purple Xiao Divine Thunder Palace.
Lingxi even felt a sense of helplessness, as the scene left a deep impression on her, making the current scene before her seem somewhat ludicrous.
The domineering flames of the Xuan Feng, and the silver armor that even the Purple Xiao Divine Thunder Sword Technique couldn't break through.
It gave one a sense of powerless despair.
And then, this noble phoenix demon was held down by a pill furnace, its neck stepped on, and it was smashed to death.
"..."
When Lingxi saw Shen Yi tearing off the flesh and blood of the Red Phoenix and putting them into separate storage artifacts, this ludicrous feeling became even stronger.
A terrifying demon beast capable of destroying the heavens and the earth was reduced to a roasted chicken being torn apart by the young man.
She shook her head in a daze.
Although the others were not like Lingxi, who had witnessed the battle between Ling Huang and Nie Jun firsthand, the scene of the opponent shattering the grand formation with a single sword, and the aftermath of the aura causing a Golden Body relic to disintegrate, was shocking enough.
There was no need to doubt the strength of this demon beast.
The fact that it died in such a ridiculous manner could only prove that its opponent was even more terrifying!
Li Qingfeng watched as Shen Yi completely stored the Fire Phoenix into a storage artifact. Then, his eyes widened slightly as he noticed the pile of storage artifacts Shen Yi had taken out. They were so varied, with some from Great Qian, some from Green Hills, some from Xuan Light Cave and Wutong Mountain, and some from unknown smaller forces.
Who in their right mind carries so many bags from different factions?
Does he really carry all his possessions with him everywhere he goes?
"No, wait."
Li Qingfeng slapped his forehead. "I almost forgot about Senior Brother Nie."
As Shen Yi cleaned up the aftermath.
Nie Jun stared at the scene below from within the mist in the sky, his expression changing rapidly.
It was only at this moment that he finally understood why Shen Yi, even while suffering from the Imperial Demon Suppression Arrow, could still casually utter a single word to frighten away the Divine Wind Demon Emperor.
Perhaps only the demons and monsters shrouded in Shen Yi's killing intent could truly understand how formidable he was.
It seemed he had underestimated him.
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 collected.
However, the palms hidden behind her back were clenched tightly, making a crisp cracking sound.
"Ha, ouch."
Nie Jun couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the wound sliced open by Ling Huang stung, causing him to take a sharp breath.
But that searing pain couldn't stop him from laughing.
Whenever Shen Yi was involved, the Master's words would always have to be swallowed back, which was truly amusing.
"What are you laughing about?"
Ye Wenxuan turned to look at him, her expression unchanged. "Do you find it amusing? You've completely severed that dog's hopes."
It must be said that Shen Yi's strength far exceeded her imagination.
This Red-eyed Xuan Feng was undoubtedly the most powerful creature in all of Nanyang Zong, only held back by its imprisonment.
But under Shen Yi's relentless bombardment, its proud demonic body and tenacious vitality, which even the Imperial Demon Suppression Arrow couldn't completely restrain, now seemed somewhat laughable.
Below the Return to Void Realm, Ye Wenxuan found it hard to imagine any means of suppressing that young man.
To be able to find a bunch of random items within Nanyang Zong, where the Dao had been severed, and to cultivate them all to a state of perfection solely through one's own efforts, this went beyond mere "talent."
By then, the old dog would most likely watch helplessly as a dozen or even dozens of Returning Void cultivators marched into that grand hall.
"Desperate dogs jump over walls. It's going to go crazy."
Speaking of which, Ye Wenxuan's voice took on a somber tone.
The reason she hadn't dared to make a move all these years was that she feared the old dog would discover that she had made no progress at all.
"Now, who among you is qualified to insert this talisman?"
Ye Wenxuan took out the talisman, which was simple and ancient in design, and carefully rubbed it with her fingertips.
The Returning Void realm was the minimum threshold to activate the talisman.
"Or can any of you lead that dog away for me?"
Ye Wenxuan suddenly clenched the talisman tightly. If the old dog took action personally, the first thing it would do would be to use all means necessary to find her and kill her.
She had personally witnessed the terror of that beast.
In the early years, when Wutong Mountain was at its most prosperous, there were three Returning Void powerhouses.
At that time, they were brimming with confidence and never thought about escaping. Instead, they planned to openly inherit the legacy of Nanyang Zong.
Thus, they first changed the name to Nanyang Zong, and then plotted to enter the inner sect and slay the old dog.
However, on the second day after they announced the name change, Zhang Laifu left the Thousand Demon Cave, catching everyone by surprise. In just six hours, he left only a handful of survivors on Wutong Mountain.
And that was only because those few escaped quickly when they saw the situation turning dire.
After that, Ye Wenxuan changed her mind.
She had been cautious and careful her entire life, never allowing herself to suffer any hidden injuries, so that the old dog wouldn't know any of her methods, ensuring that she could buy some time when facing it and still have the strength to escape from Nanyang Zong.
"What's the point of telling me all this? I can't beat that phoenix bird anyway."
Nie Jun finally stopped laughing and said seriously, "He's not your disciple. Just as your plan doesn't need to consider his life and death, he doesn't need to care about your business either."
This was the first time Nie Jun had spoken so much to the woman since the last incident.
He slowly got up, took the talisman from Ye Wenxuan's hand, and said indifferently, "Let's go."
With that, Nie Jun descended from the clouds.
Ye Wenxuan, along with the talisman, would undoubtedly be the old dog's primary target. But if the talisman was in someone else's hands, then things might be different.
This was his final repayment of the debt he owed his master.
As for why it was the last...
His master, who had personally witnessed the old dog's prowess, must have seen this phoenix bird as well.
Yet, she had never mentioned it.
She probably just wanted to see Shen Yi fail or even perish.
The woman had only saved herself and hadn't bothered with Qingfeng and Lingxi below. Tsk.
Nie Jun was just too lazy to think, not truly dull-witted.
"..."
Ye Wenxuan watched as the figure descended.
Slowly, a frown creased her brow.
If he had reacted like this earlier, there would have been no need to take such a big detour.
She hesitated for a moment, took off the eye-catching white robe she was wearing, and carefully pinched a concealment technique before disappearing from the spot.
She could only hope that the old dog would hesitate a little longer and not receive any more stimuli, and perhaps there would still be a chance.
