"Crazy...?"

The White-Haired Man and Huang Xuan stared dumbfoundedly as the black shadow devoured the Ancient Heaven Phoenix.

"Isn't he afraid of suffering a backlash?"

The black shadow seemed full. He let out a burp, then waved his hand and forcibly dragged out the Ancestral Soul of the Ancient Void Dragon.

"With Luck Force added to it, did you dare not come out?" The black shadow laughed loudly, opening his mouth once more and swallowing the several-hundred-foot Ancient Void Dragon whole.

This sight gradually left Huang Xuan and the White-Haired Man petrified.

They were becoming increasingly unable to understand the black shadow's true identity. Not only had he dared to devour the Ancestral Soul of the Ancient Heaven Phoenix, but even the Ancestral Soul of the Ancient Void Dragon had failed to escape being devoured.

Like a god descending upon the world, the black shadow stood in the void and looked down upon everything on the plain. His gaze casually swept over Huang Xuan and the White-Haired Man.

"Run! I'll hold him back!" Seeing the black shadow glance their way, Huang Xuan's heart sank, bitterness filling his mouth.

Who could have expected things to turn out like this?

This savage had practically eaten the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon alive!

"What do you have to hold me back with?"

Just after Huang Xuan gave his order to the White-Haired Man, an incomparably cold voice sounded beside his ear.

Huang Xuan's expression froze. Then, stiffly, he turned his head toward the black shadow beside him.

The black currents surrounding the black shadow grew increasingly violent. He slowly raised a hand and placed it atop Huang Xuan's head, stroking it as though he were petting a child.

Huang Xuan did not feel even the slightest anger at this gesture, because he simply did not dare.

He did not even dare move.

If he moved, death and the destruction of his soul might await him.

"Come back." The black shadow spoke indifferently, and the White-Haired Man, who had already run far away, returned against his will.

"You want to protect him?"

The black shadow spoke to Huang Xuan, then snapped the fingers of his other hand. The White-Haired Man lost both arms.

Seeing this, Huang Xuan's breathing gradually grew heavier.

"Unfortunately, you don't have that ability." The black shadow spoke calmly. The hand resting on Huang Xuan's head exerted slight force, and Huang Xuan died completely.

The Luck Force and soul within his body were both taken away by the black shadow.

"You, too, possess great luck." The black shadow looked at the White-Haired Man and smiled. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have found this Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit."

"You may go. I won't kill you."

The White-Haired Man's eyes went blank before his face suddenly filled with wild joy.

No matter what, having his life spared was worth it!

As long as he returned to the clan and gathered experts, he would come back and destroy this black shadow.

But after he had turned and fled for a while, a strange black line slowly formed around his neck. Then he heard a cold voice, like the judgment of the god of death.

"I didn't kill you just now because you still had a great deal of luck. If I killed you, my own luck would be damaged. But now, things are different."

"I've absorbed all the luck from your body, reducing your luck to zero. After that... anyone can slaughter you."

Then, the White-Haired Man's head was severed by that black line, and his soul was taken away as well.

After doing all this, the black shadow stretched lazily in satisfaction, his figure gradually becoming unstable.

"This trip has yielded a rich harvest. No, I must return quickly. I'm only a clone... I simply can't withstand the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon rampaging within my body."

As the black shadow vanished, Hun Tianchen, who was beside Queen Medusa elsewhere, slowly opened his eyes. A trace of joy flashed deep within his calm, placid gaze.

He knew that his Luck Force was negative from birth. Thus, rather than doing what others did, he had condensed countless clones and sent them to follow those blessed with great luck.

Whenever they encountered an opportunity, he would seize it directly.

It was indeed despicable, but if he wanted to grow stronger quickly, this was the only way.

Using this method, he had gathered a vast amount of Luck Force in a short time.

"I'm about to break through to Three-Star Dou Venerate." Hun Tianchen looked at Queen Medusa. "Would Your Majesty be willing to stand guard for me?"

Queen Medusa looked at him in shock.

"How long has it been since you broke through to Two-Star Dou Venerate? You're already breaking through to Three-Star Dou Venerate so soon?"

Hun Tianchen smiled sheepishly and sat down cross-legged, looking nothing like someone who had just swallowed the Ancestral Souls of the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon whole, then slaughtered every member of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.

In terms of ruthlessness, even Queen Medusa might not compare to him.

The black shadow returned from the horizon and entered Hun Tianchen's body once more. At that instant, his always-calm expression changed.

The violent energy of the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon surged within his body. That alone would have been manageable.

But the most crucial point was that the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon were mortal enemies.

The two happened to meet inside his body, and their eyes immediately turned red.

They began fighting outright.

Yes, fighting inside his body.

Then, in Queen Medusa's eyes, two incomparably violent energies appeared within Hun Tianchen's body, brawling with each other inside him.

"When did this guy gain such immense energy?" Queen Medusa was somewhat stunned, but she did not interrupt his breakthrough.

"Damn it, you two, stop fighting!" Hun Tianchen angrily separated the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon, but the effect was minimal.

Enduring the pain of two ancient magical beasts fighting within him, Hun Tianchen, knowing he had no other way, began considering how to solve this problem.

"I was still a little too greedy..."

Hun Tianchen sighed softly, then looked at the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit in his hand.

At first, he had only wanted to absorb the Luck Force on it before giving it to Ziyan. That would have earned him an enormous favor.

But now, things were different.

"Should I consume it or not?" Hun Tianchen hesitated.

Breaking through with external power would loosen his absolutely solid foundation.

His Two-Star Dou Venerate cultivation was unquestionably genuine. Since birth, he had never relied on external power.

He was countless times stronger than Xiao Yan.

Feeling the Luck Force within him, now many times greater than before, Hun Tianchen gritted his teeth and finally made his decision.

"Since I have so much Luck Force anyway, aside from the Hun Clan's Luck Force, I'll use all of it this time. I refuse to believe I can't break through this mere Three-Star Dou Venerate!"

As soon as he decided, Hun Tianchen acted. He swallowed the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit in one bite. The instant he consumed it, the Ancestral Souls of the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon within him became even more violent, their fluctuations more than five times stronger than before as they continuously ravaged his body.

"Fuck, calm down!" Feeling that terrifying devastation, Hun Tianchen could not help cursing as he began using Soul Dragon's power to suppress everything.

"Roar!"

A dragon roar even more deafening than that of an Ancient Void Dragon echoed through his body. Under Soul Dragon's threat, the Ancient Heaven Phoenix and Ancient Void Dragon within him did not know why, but both turned their gazes toward Soul Dragon...
