History

Seclusion and the first sieges

Yuan Feng's pregnancy initially drew less attention than the powerful offspring of the Dragon and Kirin Clans. Ling Tian's growing foundation reversed that perception, raising the Phoenix Clan's prestige even before his birth 5 8 9 15. Rahu then approached the clan disguised as the Heavenly Mandate Daoist, hoping to draw it into a struggle for dominance. Despite interest among its Great Experts, the clan did not expand alongside its rivals; it instead sealed the Southern Ming Undying Volcano and concentrated its protective array around the mountain 16 17 23 24.

Ling Tian's Twelfth-grade Grand Unity breakthrough prompted Ancestral Dragon, First Qilin, and the Chongming Bird to lead their forces against the clan. Phoenix members poured their power into the protective array and resolved to fight rather than flee. The formation eventually broke, leaving Yuan Feng and Qing Luan pinned down while enemy experts attacked the remaining clansmen 30 31 32 34. A later siege by the Dragon and Kirin Clans ended when Ling Tian intervened and forced their leaders to retreat 61 66.

Conflict with Rahu and Hongjun

Rahu subsequently attacked with the Demon Clan. The Innate Chaos Grand Array was destroyed, but Ling Tian emerged and saved the clan. He later restored and upgraded the array to Saint level 81 89 90. The clan remained based at the Southern Ming Undying Volcano rather than immediately seeking dominion over the Primordial World 85 90.

Hongjun later sent Laozi, Yuanshi, Zunti, and Jieyin to attack. The Phoenix Clan defeated the four Saints; it also used Zunti as a sparring partner, benefiting members' cultivation and Dao hearts 257 267 268. In a later confrontation, Hongjun reached the late stage of Saint Who Has Merged with the Dao and cracked the Innate Chaos Grand Array. The clan rallied to fight as forces including the Human, Demon, and Witch Clans arrived to reinforce it 487 488.

Defenses and Resources

• Clan protection array — Initially spread across a vast territory; contracting it around the Southern Ming Undying Volcano greatly increased its defensive strength. Clan members could channel their Immortal Power into it during a siege 24 31 32.
• Innate Chaos Grand Array — Ling Tian's defensive formation protected the clan against later attacks. After its destruction during Rahu's invasion, he restored it and upgraded it to Saint level 66 81 89 90.
