Hold Back
Having helped the Sky Luan Clan obtain the Vermilion Bird Jade, the next step is naturally to find their own Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
They weren't far from where the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit was located, so finding it wouldn't be difficult...
Based on their intuition, Mo Tang and his group quickly arrived at their destination.
"Why have all the roars of beasts disappeared here?"
The Earth Tiger Clan, dressed in a tiger robe, asked a question that puzzled many people.
However, the Sky Demon Phoenix present all had somewhat solemn expressions as they looked at the woods not far away...
"I feel a special calling from there. Could it be that I, the Sky Demon Phoenix, also exist in this ancient forest?" Jiu Feng asked, frowning in confusion.
Mo Tang smiled gently, took a few steps forward, and then slightly raised his palm...
Just as his palm touched the Void Space half a foot in front of him, a golden light suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Zi Hong and the others stared at the sudden appearance of the golden light, a hint of astonishment flashing across their eyes.
The golden light was shaped like an inverted bowl, round at the top and wide at the bottom, covering an area of about ten feet. Although the golden light was dazzling, it was obscured by the layers of trees, and it was impossible to see unless you got very close.
"What's this?"
Zi Hong and the others also flashed to Mo Tang's side, looking at the golden light shield in front of them with solemn expressions in their eyes.
From this mysterious golden light barrier, they felt a sense of oppression. This oppressive feeling made them realize that even if the people here joined forces, they probably wouldn't be able to break through this strange golden light barrier.
"This is... the Beast Spirit Barrier!"
Bi Wu, who rarely speaks, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise at the scene before him.
Most of those present were powerful members of the Demonic Beast race, so they naturally knew what Beast Spirit Barrier was...
Mo Tang then explained to Xiao Yi Xian in a low voice, "The so-called Beast Spirit Barrier is a protective shield that a powerful Demonic Beast condenses when it is about to die, and its purpose is to protect something."
Judging from the strength of the Beast Spirit Barrier in front of us, the creature capable of condensing this Beast Spirit Barrier must be no less than Ninth-tier supreme-level Demonic Beast.
This was what Zi Hong and the others were thinking.
"What kind of Demonic Beast left this Beast Spirit Barrier here? Without bloodline power, I'm afraid it would be very difficult for us to break through it," the Silver Moon Wolf Clan Chief rarely interjected.
However, his words received no response.
Because, before everyone's eyes, Mo Tang had already squeezed a drop of golden blood from his fingertip and scribbled it onto the golden shield...
As the golden bloodstain was drawn, the area rippled rapidly. Then, the golden light shield fluctuated, and a golden crack slowly tore open.
Let's go...
Seeing this, Mo Tang waved his hand and stepped inside, followed closely by Jiu Feng and the others.
As the last person entered the Beast Spirit Barrier, the golden light fluctuated, and the crack quickly disappeared.
The moment they stepped into the Beast Spirit Barrier, Mo Tang and the others were momentarily stunned. The lush forest vanished instantly, replaced by a desolate plain.
This plain is quite large, filled with crimson sand that looks as if it has been stained with blood...
Amidst the crimson, there were occasional patches of pale, lime-like color. Looking into the distance, the group discovered an ancient, colossal stone altar, hundreds of feet tall, in the center of the plain.
Upon approaching, a faint but palpable aura of majesty emanated from the altar, causing the Dou Qi within Mo Tang and the others to become blocked.
"Such terrifying pressure..."
The Sky Demon Phoenix were fine, but the others sensed something was wrong.
Even Zi Hong and the other Heavenly Luan had a vague feeling that they might have been a bit reckless to come in.
Mo Tang's gaze was fixed on the giant stone altar. Without hesitation, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and flew towards the altar.
Clearly, as Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, he was not affected by this pressure.
Seeing his actions, Jiu Feng and the others naturally followed suit and quickly rushed onto the altar.
As for the others, they said they needed to wait here and figure out what was going on first...
Upon arriving at the altar, the Sky Demon Phoenix and her companions saw a stone platform in the center of the altar, shimmering with gold and purple hues...
On the stone platform, there is a groove about half a foot in size, and inside that groove, a sapling is growing out of the stone platform.
The sapling was no thicker than a thumb, yet it coiled and twisted like a giant dragon, with a fruit hanging from its top.
The fruit was about the size of a palm, and its entire body was golden and purple. Upon closer inspection, one would find that the golden half, winding and twisting, was actually an Ancient Void Dragon shrunk countless times, while the other half, purple, was a... Demon Phoenix spreading its wings and dancing.
"It's Ancient Heavenly Phoenix!"
At this moment, everyone present, including members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, was shaken.
Because the phantom image corresponding to the Ancient Void Dragon was clearly slightly different from that of the Sky Demon Phoenix.
Moreover, judging from the oppressive aura emanating from that phantom, it could only be emitted by the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, the ancestor of all Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan!
"This is... the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit!"
Upon recognizing the true form of the object, Jiu Feng's expression changed drastically. She stared blankly at the golden-purple fruit, and then a look of extreme fanaticism surged in her eyes.
With a flash, Jiu Feng's figure surpassed Mo Tang's, and she raised her hand to grab the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit...
His actions caused a cold glint to flash in Mo Tang's eyes, and then an overwhelming pressure instantly materialized, causing the entire Beast Spirit Barrier to churn with turbulent winds.
A sharp, soul-shaking phoenix cry rang out, causing the previously crazed Jiu Feng to instantly collapse to the ground in agony!
"Young Master, please show mercy!"
Upon seeing this, Bi Wu and Huang Xuan's expressions changed drastically, with the former immediately pleading for mercy.
As the last line of defense sent by Huang Tian to protect Mo Tang, he actually knew Mo Tang's true identity.
Although the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan nominally has two successors to the clan leader, Bi Wu knows very well that in the clan leader's heart, there has always only been one person for this position!
This is also the real reason why he, a Half-Saint level expert, has been working diligently and without complaint by Mo Tang's side for more than a year!
The Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, a supreme sacred object even for the Ancient Void Dragon and the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, is not something these impure-blooded Sky Demon Phoenix can possess...
Even if the clan leader Huang Tian were here, he would probably give this thing to Mo Tang, the true supreme Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, without hesitation!
Therefore, when Mo Tang attacked Jiu Feng, Bi Wu did not stop him, but only pleaded for his life.
As for Huang Xuan ...
In just a moment, Mo Tang actually mobilized a trace of Ancestral Soul power. That level of pressure instantly made Huang Xuan lose all will to resist. He could only watch helplessly as the unlucky Jiu Feng was almost shattered by the pressure of the Ancestral Soul.
Only now did he truly realize the perverted nature of the young man before him...
If someone were to say that he was just Sky Demon Phoenix like himself, Huang Xuan would definitely spit in his face!
"It seems the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is destined for a dramatic change..."
No matter what, Jiu Feng is backed by the largest branch of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan Phoenix Clan. With Phoenix, a peak two-star Dou Sheng, there would likely be a blow to the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan if the position of clan leader were to change in the future.
Of course, things are not without hope.
If this young man possesses enough power to force the entire Phoenix Clan branch to submit, then for the Sky Demon Phoenix, a bad situation will instantly turn into a great one!
