Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 269 The Fall of the Phoenix

"Boom!"

With the flapping of its wings, Huang Tian's enormous body appeared hundreds of feet in front of Xiao Jue, and terrifying air currents tore at Xiao Jue's body.

The surging battle aura on Xiao Jue's body was almost instantly dispersed by the turbulent current that could easily destroy mountains.

"Oh no."

Upon seeing this, Phoenix and the others' expressions changed drastically. She had underestimated Huang Tian's strength. Was the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, a late-stage Five-Star Dou Sheng, really that strong?

The giant, blood-red pupils in the Heavenly Demon Phoenix's dark eyes also reflected outwards. Xiao Jue looked at the Phoenix Heaven, who was about to collide with him in the next instant, and did not choose to retreat. Instead, he raised his hand.

"Dragon Phoenix... Zhong!"

Xiao Jue's battle qi instantly transformed into a giant purple-gold bell, enveloping him. The Heavenly Phoenix Clan's Demon Phoenix Bell—no, it should be the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix's Heavenly Phoenix Bell—and the Ancient Void Dragon Clan's Dragon Emperor Bell were unleashed together under the power of the Ancient Dragon and Phoenix's bloodline.

In the history of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan and the Ancient Dragon Clan, this move was known as Absolute Defense, capable of withstanding any attack of the same realm.

Similarly, the Dragon-Phoenix Sword, unleashed by combining the Heavenly Phoenix Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Sword, is also hailed as the strongest attack.

Historically, there have been instances of the Demon Phoenix Zhong clashing with the Dragon Phoenix Sword, but that was in ancient times, the last time the ancient dragon and phoenix appeared, and both perished together.

"Bang!"

Under the gaze of countless astonished eyes, Huang Tian's enormous phoenix body, unable to control its strength, crashed heavily into the Dragon-Phoenix Bell.

Suddenly, a deafening roar resounded from the sky, and the entire sky and ground trembled under the violent impact.

"Snap, snap!"

After Huang Tian rammed it with all his might, the giant bell, which was purple-gold in color, was as if it were a solid object, and huge cracks appeared in its surface. Then the purple-gold dragon-phoenix bell exploded.

This was certainly not because Xiao Jue's Dragon-Phoenix Bell was shattered by Huang Tian, ​​but rather because Xiao Jue was confident that he could dispel it.

The next moment, the Dragon Phoenix Bell reappeared, suppressing Huang Tian, ​​who had been defeated by the counterattack of the Dragon Phoenix Bell, within it. The terrifying squeezing force actually snapped off the feathers on Huang Tian's body, which were as hard as refined iron.

Strange creaking sounds emanated from Huang Tian's body, and even the space around him began to distort.

"Damn it!"

Feeling the powerful pressure filling his body, a look of shock and anger flashed across Huang Tian's huge eyes. He looked up and let out a sharp cry, and a dazzling golden light shot out from his body.

Under the golden light, the feathers on Huang Tian's body stood up automatically, like sharp blades, and frantically slashed at the Demon Phoenix Bell.

Immediately, a clanging sound rang out in the sky, and sparks flew down continuously, like a rain of fire.

Faced with Huang Tian's struggle and counterattack, Xiao Jue revealed a look of disdain. The Demon Phoenix Bell began to shrink, and as it shrank, an indescribable squeezing force formed within the Demon Phoenix Bell, causing the space in that area to collapse instantly.

"Squeak!"

Deep within the terrifying pressure, even with Huang Tian's strength, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. If he were hit, even he would probably be seriously injured today.

At that moment, Huang Tian also had the idea of ​​retreating. His huge body trembled strangely, and he actually broke free from the suppression of the Demon Phoenix Bell.

Then, golden light surged forth, and Huang Tian's enormous body shrank in a flash, finally transforming into a human figure amidst the gazes of many.

Once again, Huang Tian transformed into a human figure, his wings flapped behind him, and the sound of wind and thunder surged. His figure pierced through space and hurriedly rushed towards the outside of the demonic phoenix bell.

"Bang!"

Huang Tian's speed was extremely fast. With a flash of its wings, it slipped out from the crack in the Demon Phoenix Bell at the critical moment.

However, just when he thought he had escaped, a huge shadow suddenly descended from the sky, and a black seal as large as a giant mountain slammed into his body.

The giant seal was covered with countless strange runes. After it struck Huang Tian, ​​the terrifying explosion created a huge crater nearly a thousand feet deep in the ground ten thousand feet below.

Struck solidly by this seal, Huang Tian immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. The terrifying power almost displaced his internal organs.

Its body flew down like a cannonball, and finally, amidst astonished gazes, it shattered a mountain peak and carved a deep trench about a thousand feet deep into the ground before slowly coming to a stop.

Across the entire sky, countless gazes fixed on the ravine stretching to the horizon below. Each gaze involuntarily swallowed hard, and when they looked back at Xiao Jue in the sky, a hint of fear appeared in their eyes.

The giant black seal did not dissipate; instead, it slammed down on the spot where Huang Tian had landed, instantly causing a terrifying energy ripple to spread out. Any object covered by the Yellow Spring Seal was razed to the ground in an instant.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Jue conjured the Dragon-Phoenix Sword and shouted, "Where is the Phoenix?!"

Seeing the phoenix arrive in response, Xiao Jue said, "From this day forward, you will be the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, assisting the new Clan Leader, Feng Qing'er, in managing the Heavenly Phoenix Clan. Anyone below the Clan Leader who disobeys may be executed!"

With a flick of her hand, Xiao Jue presented two wooden boxes to her. She said, "Inside are two Rank 9 pills: the Nine Yuan Treasure Pill, which can help a low-star Dou Sheng break through to the first star level, and the Thunder Tribulation Pill, which is made using a large amount of Black Demon Lightning."

"After taking these two pills, your strength will be enough to rise to the level of a four-star Dou Sheng. I hope you will not let me down."

Phoenix trembled, its eyes wide. The death of Huang Tian, ​​the scourge of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, had instead brought in a powerful alchemist like Xiao Jue.

Two Grade Nine Precious Pills—she could never repay such a debt of gratitude in her entire life!

loyalty!

"The phoenix swears that it will never betray Lord Xiao Jue for all eternity. If it breaks this oath, its essence and blood will be used by others to refine pills after death, its wings will be trained into flying combat techniques, and its soul will be captured by the Soul Palace to extract its soul essence."

In the Dou Qi Continent, such an oath would be terrifying for magical beasts. They would die without a complete corpse, and their bodies would be used as materials for refining pills and fighting techniques. Furthermore, they would not be able to be reborn after death, and their souls would not even have the chance to be reincarnated.

The other powerful members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Lord Xiao Jue! Greetings, Clan Chief Feng Qing'er! Greetings, Grand Elder Phoenix!"
