Who could have imagined it?

After being courted by Fire Phoenix King of the same clan, Yuan Feng actually struck directly, forcibly suppressing him.

The pitiful Fire Phoenix King, who had only just reached the Golden Immortal of the Origin and had yet to realize his grand ambitions, was burned by Yuan Feng's Nirvana True Fire until he screamed incessantly, completely unable to resist.

Yet even so, Yuan Feng had no intention of letting him go.

It was as if she meant to utterly annihilate Fire Phoenix King on the spot.

The various Great Expert of Hong Huang and countless members of the Phoenix Clan were all dumbstruck.

This scene was truly too unexpected.

Ling Tian, inside Yuan Feng's womb, was the closest and saw it most clearly.

Seeing the miserable state of Fire Phoenix King, Ling Tian was still not satisfied.

This Fire Phoenix King had illicit dealings with that Demon Ancestor Luohu.

In Ling Tian's heart, it would be best if Yuan Feng killed him right there and then.

However, it seemed this wish of Ling Tian's would not be fulfilled.

Sure enough, a golden figure suddenly flew out from within the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

It was none other than the Great Elder of the Phoenix Clan, Golden Phoenix King.

Golden Phoenix King flew toward Yuan Feng with an anxious expression, shouting loudly, "Clan Leader, you cannot kill him!"

"Although Fire Phoenix King has offended you, he is, after all, an elder of our Phoenix Clan and the third Golden Immortal of the Origin in our ranks. You cannot kill him!"

Behind Golden Phoenix King followed a large group of Phoenix Clan Great Expert, all crying out in the same manner.

Their words were all pleas for mercy on behalf of Fire Phoenix King.

They were, in fact, entirely correct.

A Golden Immortal of the Origin, let alone within the Phoenix Clan, was a strategic-level existence even throughout the entire Hong Huang.

For the Phoenix Clan, Fire Phoenix King could not die!

As expected! Ling Tian sighed to himself inside Yuan Feng's womb.

That old bird, Fire Phoenix King, would likely not die after all!

At the same time, Yuan Feng in the void transformed back into her Innate Dao Body.

Her phoenix eyes swept majestically over every Great Expert of the Phoenix Clan, and her thunderous shout resounded across heaven and earth.

"When I, Yuan Feng, act, who dares to stop me!"

As she spoke, not only did she not stop, but the Nirvana True Fire swirling around Fire Phoenix King surged even higher.

This scene left the countless Phoenix Clan Great Expert who had rushed over in a frenzy to intervene frozen in their tracks.

Yuan Feng's violent actions had already made everything clear.

"Clan Leader!" Golden Phoenix King wanted to persuade her further, but he was stopped by the arriving Qing Luan.

"Big sister is the Clan Leader of the Phoenix Clan; everything within the clan should be decided by her." Qing Luan said softly, yet her tone was extremely firm.

Once these words were spoken, the group of Phoenix Clan Great Expert shuddered, unable to say anything more.

At the same time, the screams of Fire Phoenix King in the void began to weaken.

Just as everyone thought Yuan Feng was preparing to let him go,

Yuan Feng's icy voice rang out once more.

"Fire Phoenix King, this is not your first offense."

"I ought to punish you severely and strike you down on the spot."

"However..."

Yuan Feng paused, a flicker of helplessness flashing through her eyes.

"Considering we are of the same clan, I shall spare your life this time!"

"I will seal your cultivation and sentence you to reflect on your mistakes in the forbidden grounds of the Phoenix Clan."

As she spoke.

The Nirvana True Fire swirling around the Fire Phoenix King plunged violently into his body.

It completely sealed the Fire Phoenix King's cultivation.

Then.

Yuan Feng flicked her hand.

As if swatting a fly, she slammed the Fire Phoenix King deep into the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

"Hmph!"

After finishing this.

Yuan Feng let out a cold snort, her frigid gaze sweeping over every living being present.

Only then did she slowly fly back into the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

It was only now.

That the Hong Huang Great Expert figures watching this place finally reacted, exclaiming in succession.

The events of today.

Were simply too bizarre.

It would likely be discussed across the entire Hong Huang for countless years to come.

What was most lamentable was...

The Fire Phoenix King, a Great Expert who was on the verge of rising to power.

In the blink of an eye.

Had become a prisoner who would never see the light of day again.

How tragic and pitiable!

Western Ancestral Vein.

Demon Ancestor Luohu's expression was incredibly grim.

He had not expected Yuan Feng to act with such ferocity.

This caused many of Luohu's schemes to fall through.

Especially the line involving the Fire Phoenix King.

It had cost Luohu countless heavenly treasures.

He never expected it to be severed just like that!

"Damnable!"

Luohu could not help but curse under his breath.

Yuan Feng seemed to be his nemesis.

Whenever a scheme involved Yuan Feng, it never succeeded.

This only strengthened Luohu's resolve to annihilate Yuan Feng and the Phoenix Clan.

"Hmph!"

"Fortunately, my schemes regarding the Kirin Clan and the Dragon Clan have not been significantly affected."

Luohu muttered to himself and closed his eyes once more.

And indeed, as Luohu had anticipated.

His two clones, Heavenly Mystery Daoist and Tian Xuan Daoist, had already become honored guests of the Dragon Clan and the Kirin Clan...

Returning to Yuan Feng's womb.

After the Fire Phoenix King was suppressed.

The system's voice rang out...

[Beep!]

[Detected that Fire Phoenix King has been suppressed, host mission complete.] [Reward: Yellow Middle Plum, one of the top ten Innate Spiritual Roots, and the ill will of Fire Phoenix King and Rahu!]

Hearing the system's rewards, Ling Tian couldn't help but curl his lip.

The ill will of Fire Phoenix King and Rahu?

Who cares?

At the same time.

A fruit resembling a pearl stamen appeared in Ling Tian's palm.

The characters "Yellow Middle" were clearly inscribed upon it.

"Is this the legendary Yellow Middle Plum, the fruit that allows immortals to gain ten thousand years of cultivation just by smelling its fragrance, and become a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal instantly upon eating one?"

Ling Tian looked at the fist-sized fruit in his hand, finding it hard to believe no matter how he looked at it.

"I'll know once I eat it."

After saying that.

Ling Tian swallowed the flesh of the Yellow Middle Plum in a few bites and tossed the pit aside.

"Doesn't feel like much, nothing special, though it does taste pretty good, uh..."

However.

Ling Tian's words were only half-finished.

A surge of extremely pure spiritual energy erupted within his body.

Ling Tian's eyes bulged from the impact, and not daring to be negligent, he began to digest it with his entire focus.

Following his initial refinement of the Chaos Bead.

Ling Tian's cultivation began to advance by leaps and bounds once again.

Yet, Ling Tian was unaware...

The Yellow Middle Plum pit he had discarded so casually had landed squarely upon the Chaos Bead.

Then...

With a "pop."

It was absorbed by the Chaos Bead.

At the same time.

Inside the Chaos World within the Chaos Bead.

A seed radiating intense vitality was frantically absorbing spiritual energy from the void.

Once it had absorbed enough spiritual energy.

The seed took root in the void, began to sprout, and grew vigorously...

Time is meaningless in Hong Huang.

While Ling Tian was still in seclusion digesting the Yellow Middle Plum.

The Dragon Clan and the Kirin Clan were frequently mobilizing throughout Hong Huang, expanding their influence.

Countless races were wiped out as a result.

The myriad races of Hong Huang were all in a state of panic.

Fortunately, the Dragon Clan had set their sights on the scaled tribes.

The Kirin Clan had set their sights on the beast tribes.

Although both the Dragon Clan and the Kirin Clan were rampaging through Hong Huang, they would not clash in the short term.

What was strange was...

The Phoenix Clan, also one of the three great races of Hong Huang, had remained completely silent!
