Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

In the ancient forest within the ancient ruins, Huang Tian and his group stood in the air, deeply moved.

Whether it's the Heavenly Demon Phoenix or the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, they have more defeats than victories against the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. Today's scene is truly rare and worth remembering!

"Qingshan, tell the little girl behind you to obediently hand over the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, and I, the clan leader, will spare her a whole corpse because you know what's good for you!"

"As for you!"

Huang Tian paused, then said coldly.

"The Heavenly Demon Phoenix has always been food for the Ancient Void Dragons. Now, this patriarch would like to taste you, a dragon of the Dou Sheng level!"

"This can be considered my first victory as the sixth-generation Dragon-Phoenix, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, no, the resurrected Ancient Heavenly Phoenix!"

As soon as Huang Tian finished speaking, he suddenly made a move. The five-star Dou Sheng went all out and intended to kill Elder Qingshan in one blow without any mercy!

Upon seeing this scene, Zi Yan's consciousness moved to the depths of her mind, where a strange scale slowly floated, seemingly waiting to unleash a world-shaking attack!

"How dare you!"

Just as Zi Yan was about to use the old Dragon Emperor's reverse scale, a furious shout came from nowhere, seemingly piercing through space!

Immediately following, to everyone's astonishment, a colossal hand that blotted out the sky slowly descended upon this place.

It seems that even the entire ancient ruins were grasped in the palm of this giant hand that covered the sky. With just a gentle squeeze, it could crush the ancient ruins of the Battle Saint!

"Candle Flame!"

Just as Huang Tian was about to capture Elder Qingshan, he saw this colossal hand that blotted out the sky, and distant memories suddenly flooded his mind.

It was still a scene of a war of annihilation, where a young ancient dragon, protected by its elders, was wantonly killing a Heavenly Demon Phoenix of the same level.

If he hadn't been held back by his elders, he probably would have rushed out to fight this young dragon!

Now, although that young dragon has grown old, Huang Tian will never forget its aura, even if it turns to ashes!

"Hahaha, Huang Tian, ​​I didn't expect you to still remember me!"

After the giant hand brought Elder Qingshan, Ziyan, Lin Feng, and the others back to his side, Zhuyan was clearly in a good mood and even greeted Huang Tian.

"A five-star Dou Sheng, it seems the Heavenly Demon Phoenix clan has used up all its resources on you!"

With a sweep of his gaze, Zhu Yan saw the cultivation levels of Huang Tian and the others: a five-star Dou Sheng, a two-star Dou Sheng, and two one-star Dou Sheng.

"Thousands of years have passed, and today I, the clan leader, must see just what level that person who murdered my kin had reached!"

"Phoenix, after I lure the Candle Flame away, the three of you must seize the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit. Otherwise, my Heavenly Phoenix Clan will never have a chance to rise again!"

After giving instructions via telepathy, Huang Tian ignored the expressions of the three Phoenixes and slowly walked towards the direction of the Candle Flame.

"Zhu Yan, today, we must determine who is superior!"

"I never thought that the coward who used to hide behind his parents would have the courage to stand in front of me now. It seems I must let you relive the fear that the Ancient Dragon of the Void brought you."

"Remember, food is food!"

Zhu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a killing intent slowly leaked out. Just then, a voice transmission entered his ears.

"Senior Zhuyan, Princess Ziyan has already obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit. Now, the most important thing is to bring her back to Dragon Island so that she can achieve the Dragon-Phoenix form!"

"Huang Tian's intention is definitely a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"

"The Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, Your Highness Ziyan?"

Zhu Yan nodded slowly, a hint of joy in his eyes. Both the bloodline of Zi Yan, the Dragon Emperor, and the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, representing the supreme being of the demon beast race, were extremely important.

As for that scraggly bird, Huang Tian, ​​he has plenty of time to deal with it.

"Huang Tian, ​​today I will surely kill you here!"

As he spoke, amidst the horrified gazes of Huang Tian and the others, he slowly took a few steps forward, a powerful aura flashing across his body in an instant!

"What!?"

However, whether it was because Zhu Yan was not skilled enough in controlling his aura, or for some other reason, Huang Tian was able to detect the leaked aura!

"A Six-Star Dou Sheng!"

"Oh no, run!"

Ignoring the horrified expressions of the three Phoenixes, Huang Tian tore open the space beside him, grabbed the three of them, and flashed inside.

Their movements were incredibly swift, as if they were afraid that Zhu Yan would kill them!

"A six-star Dou Sheng? Senior Zhu Yan, what is your cultivation level?"

"Hahaha, it's just some little tricks I came up with out of boredom. I'm still at the peak of the five-star Dou Sheng."

"Of course, if I go all out, that scruffy bird Huang Tian is definitely no match for me!"

Zhu Yan stroked his beard, then looked at Zi Yan beside Qing Shan. Looking at those somewhat familiar figures, a look of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

"Just like His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, who was once invincible throughout the world!"

After calming himself down, Zhu Yan's face showed a hopeful expression.

"Your Highness, where is His Majesty the Dragon Emperor now? Why doesn't he return to Dragon Island?"

It's hard to imagine that the old dragon, who had reached the level of a five-star Dou Sheng and could almost sweep across the entire Dou Qi Continent without the intervention of the imperial clan, was trembling so much at this moment.

Lin Feng observed from the side and saw that this senior of the ancient dragon clan was tall and had a terrifyingly muscular body.

However, beneath that surging vitality, his face was quite old.

"Overwork has taken its toll; perhaps this is why most of the powerful members of the ancient dragon clan have aged faces!"

Besides, Lin Feng really couldn't imagine why Zhu Yan, who was about the same age as Huang Tian and was also at the five-star Dou Sheng realm, had such a big difference in appearance!

"He, the old man, is trapped in the ancient emperor's cave!"

Zi Yan hesitated for a moment before finally using the somewhat affectionate term "old man."

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan's expression immediately turned to shock. Then, Zi Yan made no attempt to hide anything and told Zhu Yan everything she knew.

"Tathagata!"

Zhu Yan's expression was extremely ugly. Even His Majesty the Dragon Emperor could not break free, so what could he do?

A sense of powerlessness arose in Zhu Yan's heart. How could he open the Dou Di Cave without the power of a Dou Di of the corresponding level?

"Senior Zhuyan, there's no need to despair. As far as I know, there are three ways to open the Ancient Emperor's Cave!"

Just then, Lin Feng stepped forward and spoke.

"Senior Zhuyan, this is His Highness's husband, Lin Feng, an eighth-grade, nine-color alchemist, highly regarded by the Pill Tower!"

Elder Qingshan hurriedly transmitted his voice to Zhuyan to explain Lin Feng's identity. He knew that this senior had a fiery temper, or rather, the ancient dragon clan was generally known for its volatile temperament.

"An eighth-grade, nine-colored alchemist, a Heavenly Realm soul, a bone age of around thirty, and a first-stage Dou Zun realm cultivator—not bad, not bad at all!"

Zhu Yan had originally wanted to see which brat had the audacity to become the consort of the Ancient Dragon Clan, but upon closer inspection, he found him increasingly pleasing to the eye.

"Your Highness, you are exceptionally talented, achieving so much at such a young age. Your future accomplishments will surely surpass mine!"

Even disregarding Princess Ziyan's influence, Lin Feng's current achievements are enough to make Zhu Yan, a five-star Dou Sheng, take notice.

Over the long years, Zhu Yan had come to know about human alchemists and knew that there were three conditions for becoming a ninth-grade alchemist.

Lin Feng has already achieved the most difficult Soul Heaven Realm. Considering his bone age, the remaining Half-Saint Realm and Ninth-Rank Alchemist will naturally follow with the accumulation of years.

Even if he had reached the level of a five-star Dou Sheng, alchemists of the ninth rank or above would still have to be respected by him!

"Thousands of years ago, before leaving Dragon Island to search for the Dragon Emperor in the void, that alchemist was also extremely terrifying!"

After a moment of reflection, Zhu Yan asked Lin Feng.

"Young friend Lin Feng, you said you have three methods to rescue the Dragon Emperor from the Ancient Emperor's Cave. What are these three methods, and how do you intend to do them? I will certainly cooperate fully with you!"

Not only Zhu Yan, but also Elder Qingshan and Zi Yan were full of curiosity. What method did Lin Feng have to rescue the Dragon Emperor from the Ancient Emperor's Cave?

Especially Zi Yan and the others, they had entered that magma space and witnessed Zhu Kun's immense power.

Even he couldn't do anything about it, so how could Lin Feng possibly rescue him?

"The first method, as you all know, Ziyan, is the eight Imperial Jade artifacts possessed by the Imperial Clan!"

"Imperial Jade?"

"That's right. As a cave dwelling, the Ancient Emperor's Cave naturally has a medium for opening it, and the Imperial Jade that serves as the medium is currently controlled by the eight great imperial clans."

"Each of the eight imperial clans possesses one jade. If these eight imperial jades can be gathered together, not only can the Dragon Emperor be rescued, but it's also possible to obtain the Dou Di's inheritance!"

"If the Dragon Emperor hadn't been trapped, we might have had a chance to collect the Imperial Jade. Even with the return of many senior figures, it would be difficult for us to make the trip!"

Zhu Yan sighed slightly, but he wasn't disappointed, since Lin Feng still had two methods.

"Senior Zhuyan, you may not know this, but the Soul Clan within the Imperial Clan has long coveted the Dou Di inheritance within this Ancient Emperor's Cave."

"Perhaps, the Soul Clan will gather the Emperor Jade themselves without our intervention. We can simply stand by and watch, or even obstruct them!"

"That's not a bad idea!"

Both Zhu Yan and Elder Qingshan nodded. Of course, although they were somewhat puzzled as to why Lin Feng knew these secrets, they did not press him for an answer.

Firstly, Lin Feng is, after all, Princess Zi Yan's husband, so they couldn't very well disrespect him. Secondly, given Lin Feng's current strength, they could easily eliminate him, so they weren't afraid of any hidden schemes.

Of course, Elder Qingshan trusted Lin Feng completely, after all, the scene when he broke through showed the aura of the Dragon Emperor leaking out.

He naturally had complete faith in the Dragon Emperor's judgment.

"The second method, then, depends on Ziyan?"

"I?"

When she saw everyone's eyes suddenly focused on her, Zi Yan was stunned for a moment, followed by a bellyful of questions.

"That's right, Zi Yan, you are the second method to open the ancient emperor's cave!"

"Does young friend Lin Feng mean the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit?"

It was Zhu Yan who reacted first and guessed.

"That's right, it's the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit!"

Lin Feng clapped his hands, looking somewhat excited.

"The records in the Pill Tower also state that the ancient supreme divine beast, the Dragon-Phoenix, could fight an Emperor upon reaching its peak! And given Zi Yan's understanding of space, if she were to cultivate her Dragon-Phoenix form to the peak, opening an ancient Emperor's cave would be an incredibly easy task!"

"That's right. With Your Highness's bloodline inherited from His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, if you were to achieve the body of a dragon-phoenix, your understanding of space would definitely far surpass that of ordinary royal bloodlines!"

Zhu Yan's old face was full of excitement. He even imagined Zi Yan immediately achieving the Dragon-Phoenix body and reaching the pinnacle within a thousand years, and the Dragon Emperor being rescued!

"Of course, the time required for the Dragon-Phoenix to reach its full potential is too long. I have a third method!"

Just then, Lin Feng spoke again, which surprised everyone, and they exchanged glances.

"Could it be that the third method is even simpler than the Purple Beauty Dragon Phoenix Great Completion?"

"I once read in some ancient text that there exists a wondrous object in this world, capable of defeating even a supreme being, and it may still exist in this very era!"

"What!?"

A shocked shout rang out; it was Zhu Yan.

As a five-star Dou Sheng, his shock today surpassed that of his thousands of years of wandering in the endless void.

"The Dragon Emperor has searched for this for countless years. If such a wondrous object truly exists, how could he not know about it?"

It's no wonder Zhu Yan didn't believe it; the time when the Bodhi Ancient Tree joined forces with another Dou Di to kill the Black Qi Dou Di was now unknown.

Moreover, after being injured, the Bodhi Tree only had three functions left, which were still incredibly powerful and enough to produce a Dou Sheng powerhouse!

However, for the old Dragon Emperor Zhukun, killing a newly ascended Dou Sheng expert is as easy as crushing an ant!

Naturally, they wouldn't pay much attention to it!

Lin Feng then shared the news about the Bodhi Ancient Tree with everyone, which evoked a wave of emotions among them.

If the Dragon Emperor had known the immense power of the Bodhi Tree back then, perhaps he wouldn't have been trapped!

However, Lin Feng held a different view. Although the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void was quite friendly to him now, the real dragons were extremely domineering.

If Dragon Emperor Zhukun were to learn of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, it would likely all be for naught.

"It is said that the ancient Bodhi tree appears only once every thousand years. It has been almost a thousand years since the last ancient Bodhi tree appeared, so we should have news about it soon!"

"It seems we absolutely must get the older brothers back soon!"

Zhu Yan stroked his beard, a thoughtful expression on his face. After regaining his senses, Zhu Yan slowly bowed slightly to Lin Feng.

"Young friend Lin Feng, although I know that you are willing to help His Majesty because of His Highness."

"However, I and even the Ancient Dragon Clan will forever remember the help we have received from you. If there is anything you need, Your Highness, you need not even ask; we will certainly do our utmost to help!"

After Zhu Yan spoke, Elder Qingshan did not say anything, but his expression was full of agreement.

"Thank you very much, Senior Zhuyan!"

Lin Feng did not refuse, after all, this was a five-star Dou Sheng, who was practically invincible in the Central Continent!
