Chapter 1294: Chapter 1296: Strengthening Chapter 1294: Chapter 1296: Strengthening Under the Sword Qi Palm Imprint, the demonic fire rapidly shrank into a ball and was directly suppressed by a palm, while the figure of the Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan was also pressed down by the palm imprint.
“With that strike, even if he doesn't die, he'll still suffer serious injuries,” Song Jian narrowed his eyes, staring at the Sword Qi Palm Imprint, with the Sky-breaking Sword still firmly gripped in his hand.
The power of the Evil Fire Phoenix was too formidable, far beyond what Song Jian could handle at the moment. He might be able to suppress his opponent temporarily, but it was not possible to keep him suppressed continuously.
The strike just now, starting from the evolution of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword, actually had some traces of a sneak attack, taking advantage of the fact that the Evil Fire Phoenix did not understand the Thousand Swords Art's evolutionary formations.
If it were to happen again, it likely wouldn't be so easy to suppress the Evil Fire Phoenix.
“The same move won't have the same effect, the next time we meet…” Song Jian had already felt the surging and formidable energy beneath the Sword Qi Palm Imprint. This strike apparently didn't have any effect on the Evil Fire Phoenix. Instead, it made him even angrier.
Screech~
A piercing phoenix cry resounded. Underneath the Sword Qi Palm Imprint, the dark purple flames suddenly started burning, spewing out unstoppably from around the palm imprint and through the gaps between the fingers, growing more and more intense.
In just a few seconds, cracks began to appear on the surface of the Sword Qi Palm Imprint. Within those cracks, dark purple magmlike energy material was constantly flowing.
In no time at all, the entire Sword Qi Palm Imprint started to dissolve rapidly. Before long, the palm imprint had completely melted into the purple flames.
With the sound of a sharp phoenix cry, after dissolving the Sword Qi Palm Imprint, the dark purple flames burned even more fiercely. Flecks of dark purple, flaming feathers, over a foot long, flew out from the flames, densely fluttering in the sky.
Song Jian couldn't help but step back twice. The Evil Fire Phoenix Nuo Stan had clearly taken the full brunt of the Sword Qi Palm Imprint's strike head-on, so why was it completely unharmed and seemed even more formidable than before?
While Song Jian was puzzled, the phoenix feathers burning in the sky suddenly lit up with a dazzling light. The feathers began to converge with each other, and in no time, a giant phoenix appeared before Song Jian.
This phoenix, with its wings spread, was hundreds of meters long, its body enshrouded in blazing purple flames, radiating a formidable aura.
“This, this is…” Song Jian's face showed great surprise. He suddenly sensed something familiar: “This, this is somewhat similar to the process of casting the Sacred Lion Demon-binding Seal, only, the material for crafting the formation has been completely replaced by those flaming phoenix feathers…”
Song Jian certainly didn't believe they were real phoenix feathers, but rather energy bodies with high integrity, resembling phoenix feathers in shape.
But Nuo Stan's technique displayed his extraordinary foundation in the art of formations; even Song Jian currently couldn't abandon the formation materials completely to substitute with the Spirit Sword to form the Sacred Lion Demon-binding Seal!
In an instant, many thoughts whirled in Song Jian's mind. Flashes of inspiration collided and burst forth, and as for constructing formations with the Spirit Sword, Song Jian seemed to have grasped a trace of direction.
Boom!
A thunderous roar interrupted Song Jian's contemplation, as the Phoenix above him kept amassing the fire elements around him, forming a gigantic fireball over ten meters in diameter in the sky.
“Damn it, I can't believe I got distracted in the middle of a fight, that's practically courting death…” Song Jian took a deep breath, concentrating all his Sword Qi into the Sky-breaking Sword in his hand.
With a fierce slash forward, Song Jian muttered softly, “Sword Qi Stone Tower, suppress the demon and evil spirits!”
Hundreds of Spirit Swords appeared around him, which, under Song Jian's control, swiftly flew towards the sky. At that moment, a Sword Qi Stone Tower over ten meters tall had already taken shape in the air.
Just as the Sword Qi Stone Tower was ready to crush down on the Evil Fire Phoenix, more than a hundred Spirit Swords suddenly flew to the surrounds of the tower, beginning to plunge into it continuously.
With every Spirit Sword inserted, the aura of the Sword Qi Stone Tower became more solid. Once all the hundred-plus Spirit Swords were embedded in the tower, the originally ten-meter-tall tower suddenly soared to over thirty meters in height, and its presence became even more imposing and solidified. Clearly, the Sword Qi Stone Tower had been enhanced by Song Jian.
In the distance, the Evil Fire Phoenix's eyes were filled with rage. It controlled the Evil Fire Phoenix Spirit Formation to condense a fireball over ten meters in diameter, initially aiming to wipe out Song Jian with a single strike, but the towering thirty-meter-high Stone Tower in the sky quickly captured its attention.
“What, what is this thing?” Nuo Stan clenched his teeth in frustration. This human seemed so frail he could be crushed single-handedly, yet he kept pulling out all these tricks–one moment a long sword, the next a palm imprint, and now a tower, which was just infuriatingly endless!
The previous Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword had only caused him some slight injuries, but the Sword Qi Palm Imprint had truly made him spit out blood. Had it not been for his innate ability “Immortal Phoenix” kicking in, he might have suffered severe injuries from that attack.
Seeing the suddenly expanded Sword Qi Stone Tower, a surge of excitement filled Song Jian's heart. Although he was not yet capable of using Spirit Swords as materials to construct a formation, he could still use them as supplementary materials to enhance the power of an existing formation.
This step was a world apart from being utterly clueless before. Even the idea of using Spirit Swords as materials to build formations was starting to take shape in Song Jian's mind. With some time, he believed he could fully achieve the construction of formations using Spirit Swords!
Song Jian's Sword Qi Value had recovered one-fifth, which is why he could only summon a bit more than a hundred Spirit Swords. Moreover, the time taken to summon the Spirit Swords left him without any chance to dodge the massive fireball.
As he watched the Sword Qi Stone Tower swell to over thirty meters, a smile crept onto Song Jian's face. The dark purple fireball was less than ten meters away from him, traveling so fast that he had absolutely no time to dodge.
With a mere thought, Song Jian's figure vanished from the spot, and in the instant he disappeared, the fireball smashed ferociously into the ground where he had previously stood, like a meteor crashing down, producing a thunderous roar that could be heard dozens of miles away.
Inside the Dragon God Hall, the monitoring screen began to distort violently, “Bang!” As intense energy fluctuations interfered with the monitoring magic, several Giant Dragon priests looked at each other in disbelief. They could not fathom why the pursuit of a single Necromancer from the Legendary Realm had led to the emergence of an Evil Fire Phoenix, whose power had surpassed the Legendary Realm and was nearing the Demi-God Realm.
“Yali Fu, you should go,” said an aged Giant Dragon priest, opening his dark gold vertical pupils to glance at the Fire Giant Dragon Yali Fu. “The strength of this Evil Fire Phoenix has reached the peak of the Legendary Realm, and it has even touched the domain of the Demi-God. Only you are capable of surely defeating it…”
