Three Saints of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan
"You old bastard, today I'll take you all down with me!"
Hong Xiaotian roared with intense resentment, his entire body rapidly swelling up like a balloon about to burst.
Seeing Hong Xiaotian's reckless actions, Elder Suo sneered disdainfully, "Spatial Lockdown!"
As the sound faded, the space around Hong Xiaotian suddenly fluctuated violently. The invisible space seemed to materialize, forming a Space Prison that completely enveloped Hong Xiaotian.
The ability to condense Space Prison into a tangible form is something even ordinary Five-Star Dou Zong level figures would find difficult to achieve, but Elder Suo possesses strength approaching that of Dou Zun, making it as easy for him to execute.
After the Space Prison was formed, Hong Tianxiao's body swelled to an extremely terrifying extent, and then a muffled thunderous explosion rang out from the sky.
The Space Prison became extremely distorted, and the leaked energy waves swept wildly in all directions, cracks appeared, and the entire Northern Heaven City trembled.
Faced with such a leak of energy, Elder Suo's robes fluttered loudly in the wind.
After the shockwave subsided, Elder Suo glanced at the rest of the Hong Clan: "Make your move!"
Without the support of a powerful figure, the Han Clan and others immediately surrounded the nearby Hong Clan.
Just as the Han Clan began their unilateral massacre, the Wind Lightning Northern Pavilion in Phoenix Perch Mountain in the Northern Region of the Central Plains also learned of Shen Yun's demise.
"Elder Yun's Soul Thunder Tablet has shattered!"
Inside the grand hall atop the dazzling silver Thunder Tower, the figure on the throne spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three elders in the hall all changed.
One of them exclaimed in disbelief, "There's actually someone who dares to kill someone from my Wind Lightning Pavilion?!"
The man in the silver robe on the throne slowly said, "It is an elder of the Yellow Springs Pavilion."
"The Yellow Springs Pavilion? How does the Pavilion Master know about it?" The three were taken aback, then asked in surprise.
Fei Tian pondered for a moment and said, "According to the message from Thunder Venerable, the Yellow Springs Pavilion has recently established relations with the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. The strength of the people in the pavilion has increased dramatically, and they have also gathered the power of many families in various cities. I didn't expect them to extend their reach into the area controlled by the Wind Lightning Pavilion so quickly."
"However, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan has already taken note of this matter and is preparing to take action against the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. When they are no longer relying on anything, that will be the time for our Wind Lightning Pavilion to retaliate."
Fei Tian slowly stood up, and with a wave of his sleeves, a thunderous roar echoed throughout the hall.
"Of the four pavilions in Central Plains, Wind and Thunder reign supreme; the other three pavilions are no longer necessary!"
Not long after, Xiao Yan also received a message from Yao Ming.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan has been making frequent moves in the past few days, gathering many powerful members of the clan, most of whom are at the Dou Zun level, with three of them reaching the Dou Sheng level.
They are the supreme elders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, renowned for their fearsome reputation in the Beast Realm. They are known as the Heavenly Demon Three Phoenixes: the Fenghuang, the Kun Huang, and the Ying Huang.
Among the three phoenixes, Fenghuang is a Mid-Stage Two-Star Dou Sheng expert, Kun Huang is a late-stage One-Star Dou Saint expert, and Eagle Emperor is Mid-Stage One-Star Dou Saint.
It must be said that the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan the strongest among the Beast Clan!
However, the three Supreme Elders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan already have a certain chance of annihilating the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
And if we consider Huang Tian, the current patriarch of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, who is Late Five-Star Dou Sheng, then all-out effort is needed.
Even though the Void Ancient Dragon Clan was known for treating the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan as food, they were completely doomed to be wiped out when Zhu Kun was trapped in front of the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion.
After learning about the Three Saints of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, Xiao Yan headed back to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
Of course, with his current strength, his speed is far beyond what it used to be.
They quickly returned to the main hall of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. Yao Ming smiled at Xiao Yan and said, "Young Master Xiao Yan, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan will definitely tear through space from within their clan to enter the Nine Netherworld Python Clan's headquarters. As long as we carefully sense the spatial fluctuations, we can discover their tracks early on."
"Hmm." Xiao Yan nodded.
Yao Ming was also very well prepared for this battle. He pointed to the six elders behind him and said, "This time I have selected six outstanding elders. Although we cannot compare with the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in terms of the number of strong individuals, as long as we can defeat the Heavenly Demon Three Phoenixes, we will thwart their objectives this time."
Xiao Yan had personally witnessed Qing Lin controlling the elites of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, and he also knew these six elders.
Apart from one of the elderly men with a full head of white hair who possessed the strength of Intermediate Half-Saint, the other five were still at the Dou Zun level.
However, this time their goal was to ambush the powerful members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, drawing the battle line outside the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, thereby reducing the damage to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
While this lineup certainly can't compare to the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, it's not a big deal.
The plan had already been formulated. After seeing Xiao Yan nod, Yao Ming suddenly swung his hand fiercely into the void, and a pitch-black spatial rift immediately appeared.
Then the former pulled hard with both hands, and a pitch-black crack appeared in front of everyone.
"Walk!"
Upon seeing the space torn open, Xiao Yan did not hesitate and took the lead, stepping directly into the crack.
Yao Ming then said in a deep voice to the elders who remained behind, "While I am away, the Nine Netherworld Python Clan is in your hands. You must patrol strictly to prevent other powerful members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan from launching sneak attacks."
"Yes, sir!" Upon hearing this, the elders quickly replied respectfully.
"Let's go too." Seeing this, Yao Ming nodded, waved his sleeve, and strode into the spatial rift, with the six elders following closely behind.
As the last person stepped into the spatial rift, the rift slowly dissipated and finally disappeared into the world.
Amidst the tranquil atmosphere of the Ten Thousand Mountains, a sudden and intense spatial fluctuation erupted, revealing cracks resembling gaping, menacing mouths.
As the cracks appeared, Xiao Yan and the others slowly emerged.
After scanning his surroundings, Yao Ming slowly said, "Judging from the spatial markings I placed on my spies within the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan will definitely pass through this area."
Xiao Yan nodded and descended towards a mountain peak.
Next, all they needed to do was wait—wait for the powerful members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan to appear!
A day or two passed in the blink of an eye. Just as Xiao Yan and the others were waiting quietly, the space in the sky began to fluctuate violently.
Although no figures appeared, the powerful auras surging forth were detected by Xiao Yan and the others.
Sensing the aura of this powerful group, Xiao Yan and Yao Ming attacked simultaneously.
"The Yellow Springs Finger!"
Two enormous fingers, hundreds of feet long and brimming with destructive power, slammed into the void.
The entire space above the mountain collapsed in an instant, and a terrifying force spread out, causing the surrounding area to shake violently and creating huge cracks in the ground, as if a major earthquake had occurred.
The powerful beings traversing the space sensed the targeted attack, but before they could react, the space suddenly shattered, unleashing a powerful spatial turbulence.
The enormous Yellow Springs Finger, carrying powerful Dou Qi, pierced into the group of people with extreme sharpness.
At that moment, a series of piercing screams erupted.
"What cowardly wretch dares to launch a sneak attack on my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan? You're courting death!"
Amidst the sudden attack of the two, a delicate shout rang out from within the dark spatial rift.
As a delicate shout rang out, a woman in a red robe suddenly clenched her jade-like hand into the surrounding spatial turbulence from within the spatial rift.
The space there was actually distorted, and then with a bang, the extremely violent spatial turbulence was directly blasted apart by his palm.
Spatial turbulence exploded, and a group of about twenty people appeared in the sky, with three figures standing at the head.
The rest of the gazes, as they looked at the three figures' retreating backs, were filled with awe.
Under the attack of the Heaven Tier Dou Technique just now, this team of powerful Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan suffered some damage.
Apart from the three Supreme Elders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, everyone else had suffered injuries of varying degrees, with some appearing to be on the verge of death, as if they might perish at any moment.
"What's so great about the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan!" Seeing that his attack had worked, Yao Ming laughed loudly and appeared in mid-air, followed closely by the six elders.
"Who are you?" Among the three leading Heavenly Demon Phoenix, the woman in the red dress spoke with a cold and authoritative voice.
This woman, dressed in a red dress, looked quite young, but her aura was terrifyingly powerful.
A pair of slightly thin eyebrows twitched slightly, revealing a menacing aura, causing the two elderly men beside him to subtly take a step back.
It was Fenghuang, the strongest of the Three Elders of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
Looking at the leader, Yao Ming, Fenghuang frowned, her eyes turning grim. "Yao Ming... you're still alive?!"
"It's actually that old monster from the Nine Netherworld Python Clan! Didn't he die from a qi deviation?" Upon hearing Fenghuang's words, both Kun Huang and Ying Huang beside her were taken aback.
"Hehe, you three old demons are still alive, how could I, the king, perish so easily?" Yao Ming laughed loudly.
"Regardless of why you did not perish and even appear to have regained control of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, this cannot change the fate of your Nine Netherworld Python Clan."
Fenghuang stared at Yao Ming with a cold expression, and said in a sinister tone.
"The powerful members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan are not like your meager skills, which are only good for dealing with your stupid younger brother and your weak Great Elder."
"Abandoning the Nine Netherworld Python's stronghold to come here saves us the trouble of going to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan to annihilate you!" the Fenghuang coldly roared with absolute authority. "This operation is extremely important, as it relates to the unification of the Beast Clan by my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan. Therefore, you'd better show me your strongest strength, or else, the clan rules will apply!"
"I will obey the Supreme Elder's command!"
Faced with this person's cold rebuke, those figures behind him who were usually quite influential in the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan dared not utter a word and hurriedly responded respectfully.
"The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is quite imposing!" Yao Ming waved his hand, signaling the elders behind him to prepare to make their move.
"Kill!" Fenghuang sneered, her slender fingers clenching her palms, golden flames swirling in her eyes.
Sensing the surging, dark purple Dou Qi within Yao Ming's body, as vast and unfathomable as an abyss, a mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips—how could she allow such an absolute advantage of three against one to be taken lightly?
Those lowly soldiers of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan are nothing but ants before a true Dou Sheng!
"Unseen for a thousand years, let me, the king, examine the quality of you scruffy birds!" Yao Ming's voice shook the heavens, and his python-patterned cloak exploded into a sky full of purple mist.
He shattered the void with his feet, and the spiderweb-like spatial cracks solidified, carrying the power of shattered stars straight towards the Fenghuang's face.
Fenghuang's black hair danced wildly in the raging air currents, her jade fingers tracing mysterious paths in the air as she cried out, "Kun Huang, intercept and kill Yao Ming! Ying Huang, wipe out the remaining evil spirits!"
Before she finished speaking, the crimson-gold fiery wings that unfurled behind her stirred up a raging sea of fire, colliding violently with the dark purple vortex created by Yao Ming.
A blinding aurora burst forth at the point where the two energies collided, and the clouds within a radius of a hundred feet were instantly evaporated into nothingness.
"Two Dou Sheng think they can stop me?" Yao Ming's long laughter pierced through the clouds and split rocks, and golden light tore through the black mist before his words even finished.
Its body, which had expanded to a height of three zhang, radiated an aura of ancient ferocious beasts. Even before its fists arrived, the surging wind had already caused glass-like cracks to appear in the space around the Kun Huang.
"Taotie Devours the Stars!" Kun Huang's black robe billowed like an abyss, and the black mist spewed from its throat condensed into a nine-headed demonic dragon.
As the ferocious maws snapped shut, even light was swallowed up and twisted into a vortex. But the instant they touched the golden body, a dazzling light, like the breaking of the sun, shattered the nine demon heads into a sky full of sparks.
With a muffled groan, Kun Huang flew backward, crashing through seven mountains. He wiped the dark red blood from the corner of his mouth and was shocked to find that his protective aura had been pierced by pure power—this Yao Ming Dou Sheng's body was not like that of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, but rather like that of a more powerful Ancient Void Dragon!
"Third brother, help me!"
The hurricane stirred up by the Ying Huang's flapping wings came to an abrupt halt, and jet-black bone wings stood in front of its elder brother.
As the two brothers locked eyes, crimson demonic patterns simultaneously appeared in their pupils, and their intertwined Dou Qi condensed in the air into a chaotic demonic bird that blotted out the sky.
As soon as the colossal beast with the head of an eagle and the body of a fish took shape, the entire sky resounded with a sickening sound of bones cracking.
"Three against one, is this the strength of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan?"
Yao Ming laughed loudly, his laughter like thunder.
Ying Huang's eyes were bulging with veins, and his sharp white teeth were grinding together.
He slowly raised his right arm, which was covered with black iron scales, and his three-zhang-long jet-black eagle claws drew dark purple lightning marks in the void.
"When I tore apart the Nine Netherworld veins, you mudfish were probably still hiding in some hole!"
Each word carried a chilling, pungent stench, and ancient trees within a ten-mile radius shattered section by section amidst the sound waves.
The two claws clashed, producing a metallic clang, and nine cold beams of light ripped through the night like thunder.
The surface of the black iron blade was covered with dense patterns of vengeful spirits—this was his natal demonic weapon, forged with the souls of 100,000 people. Wherever the claws passed, even the space itself was stained with dark blood.
The withered face of the Kun Huang was tinged with a deathly gray aura, and the vortex around its body suddenly expanded into a black hole hundreds of feet long.
