The cataclysmic battle at the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

As soon as it erupted, it drew the attention of nearly all Primordial Beings.

The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans, along with the rising Avian Alliance, had gathered at the Southern Ming Undying Volcano, concentrating the most formidable forces of this era in the Primordial World.

It could be said

that the final outcome of this battle at the Southern Ming Undying Volcano

would determine the future course of the entire Primordial World.

Before this, the Phoenix Clan, bolstered by Yuan Feng and Ling Tian, had already become the de facto foremost race in the Primordial World.

But now, hardly any being held hope for the Phoenix Clan.

In their eyes, the Phoenix Clan was on the verge of annihilation.

The Primordial Beings couldn't help but sigh—

that the Phoenix Clan, one of the mightiest races in the Primordial World, had fallen to such a state.

And the most direct cause of all this

was Ling Tian, still in Yuan Feng's womb.

Who could have imagined

that Ling Tian, with his terrifyingly profound foundation, who was meant to lead the Phoenix Clan to prosperity, would instead be the reason for their doom!

At the Western Ancestral Vein, sensing the battle at the Southern Ming Undying Volcano, Demon Ancestor Luohu curled his lips into a cold smirk.

Since he had already orchestrated the current situation, there was no chance of survival for the Phoenix Clan.

What remained now

was nothing but a death struggle.

"Once the Phoenix Clan is wiped out, the next step is to scheme against the Kirin Clan and the Dragon Clan."

"When all three clans are annihilated,"

"I shall command billions of Devil Race warriors to emerge from the mountains, and the devils shall reign over the world!"

"Hehehehehe..."

Delighted by his own schemes, Luohu's heart swelled with joy, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Above the Western Ancestral Vein, demonic energy churned without cease.

But Luohu had no idea

that, just like Ancestral Dragon and First Qilin, a trace of Tribulation Qi had also appeared in his eyes.

Unbeknownst to him, Demon Ancestor Luohu had already fallen into the tribulation!

At the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun once again awakened from seclusion.

His gaze turned toward the Southern Ming Undying Volcano, and a flicker of astonishment surfaced in his eyes.

Hongjun had not expected such a scene to unfold.

In his original calculations, Yuan Feng and Ling Tian within her womb were supposed to be the greatest variables of this tribulation.

But now it seems—

These two variables are about to vanish soon?

Hongjun's heart leaped with joy, and he immediately began to calculate the celestial secrets.

Yet the result made Hongjun's brow furrow slightly.

His deductions regarding Ling Tian remained utterly hazy.

But through his calculations on Yuan Feng and the Phoenix Clan, Hongjun suddenly discovered—

The fortune of Yuan Feng and the Phoenix Clan was still long-lasting, with no sign of dissipating.

Could it be that within this dire crisis, the Phoenix Clan still had a way to break through?

But such a perilous situation—

Even Hongjun himself, a late-stage Chaos Golden Immortal, dared not claim he could survive it!

What virtue or ability did the Phoenix Clan possess to do so?

Back in the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

The relentless bombardment of the Phoenix Clan's protective formation had dragged on for months.

Apart from Yuan Feng and Qing Luan, who had yet to act, billions of Phoenix Clan members struggled to hold on.

Even with the aid of the protective formation, the billions of Phoenix Clan members were gradually losing ground.

In these short months, if not for every Phoenix Clan member giving their all, the protective formation would have collapsed long ago!

And today, the Phoenix Clan's protective formation finally reached the brink of collapse.

"Hold the line!"

A Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Phoenix Clan roared to the heavens, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Yet—

"Boom!"

With a thunderous blast, the formation that had stubbornly held for months was shattered, a gap torn open.

"It's over!"

At the sight of that massive breach, despair surged in the hearts of nearly every Phoenix Clan member.

Qing Luan, standing beside Yuan Feng, tensed with urgency and was about to strike.

But Yuan Feng reached out and stopped her.

"Sister?"

Just as confusion stirred in Qing Luan's mind, Yuan Feng's sharp cry suddenly rang out—

"Golden Phoenix King, how much longer will you drag this out?"

The moment the words fell, a violent tremor erupted from deep beneath the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

A Golden Immortal of the Origin-level aura shot skyward.

This is—

As if realizing something, a surge of overwhelming joy burst forth in the hearts of the Phoenix Clan members.

At this life-or-death moment, Yuan Feng had finally lifted the Fire Phoenix King's confinement.

With the Fire Phoenix King, a Golden Immortal of the Origin, now in play, the Phoenix Clan's strength would increase by no small measure.

Outside the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

When a crack split open in the Phoenix Clan's protective formation, Ancestral Dragon, First Qilin, and the Chongming Bird all felt a surge of joy, barely restraining themselves from charging in.

But in the end, they forcibly suppressed that impulse.

The three Primordial Golden Immortal Great Experts exchanged glances, cold smirks curling at the corners of their mouths.

Clearly, none of them wanted to be used as a pawn.

Yet even with the three of them checking each other, once the Phoenix Clan's protective formation shattered completely, they could all cut loose and strike with full force!

The Phoenix Clan's fate wouldn't change much.

But just then, they distinctly sensed a Primordial Golden Immortal-level aura soaring into the sky.

This was...

the Fire Phoenix King?

Ancestral Dragon and First Qilin narrowed their eyes, but quickly regained their composure.

Even with the Fire Phoenix King added, the Phoenix Clan still only had three Primordial Golden Immortals.

Their side, however, had five.

They still held an absolute advantage.

But Ancestral Dragon and First Qilin failed to notice the Chongming Bird's expression...

When the Fire Phoenix King's aura appeared, a thick smugness clearly spread across the Chongming Bird's lips.

"Releasing the Fire Phoenix King, huh? Yuan Feng is practically courting death..."

the Chongming Bird mused inwardly.

But before his smugness could last long, it vanished in an instant, replaced by shock and fury.

"Damn it!"

It turned out that just as every living being thought Yuan Feng was about to release the Fire Phoenix King, "Screech!"

A despairing cry rang through heaven and earth.

The Fire Phoenix King's steadily rising aura suddenly stalled!

Countless creatures were utterly baffled!

What the hell was this?

Wasn't she supposed to release the Fire Phoenix King?

What was Yuan Feng doing?

But the next moment, a Primordial Golden Immortal-level Law of Fire abruptly appeared within the Phoenix Clan's protective formation.

The moment this Law Power emerged, it shot toward the gap in the formation and instantly sealed it shut.

And that wasn't all!

With the aid of this Law Power, the once precarious protective formation was completely renewed.

Its resilience was now more than double what it had been before.

In stark contrast, the Fire Phoenix King's aura abruptly vanished!

"Holy shit!"

"Yuan Feng just used the Fire Phoenix King as a Primordial Golden Immortal-level energy source!"

"With the Fire Phoenix King's Immortal Power supply, the Phoenix Clan's protective grand formation's might has surged by more than double!"

"Is this even possible?"

In the void.

A Great Expert exclaimed in shock.

This scene.

Deeply shook every living being.

Like this.

The Phoenix Clan's protective grand formation could hold out for even longer.

But to the Ancestral Dragon and the First Qilin.

This was nothing more than a scratch.

Just a waste of a bit more time.

The Phoenix Clan's fate would not change in the slightest.

Only the Chongming Bird's face suddenly turned extremely grim...
