However, as it turns out, not all powerful cultivators in this world are like the Black-Robed High Priest.
Take Lin Yu for example. He is not usually stern and unsmiling. When dealing with other members of the ancient Phoenix Clan, Lin Yu is quite friendly.
And once they find the weakness in their own magic, they will reveal a very obvious smile.
"Hmph, the High Priest once said that those who achieve great things must not show their emotions. Judging from your appearance, you're not much better!" The young man from the Phoenix Clan sighed inwardly, controlling the two-headed giant snake to retreat.
However, Lin Ran didn't know that Lin Yu's lack of concealment wasn't because he couldn't conceal it, but because he disdained to.
No one would hide their emotions in front of a cultivator weaker than themselves.
Lin Yu made no attempt to hide his intentions, essentially stating that the strength of the young people of the Phoenix Clan was simply no match for him.
"Boom!"
The silver longsword in Lin Yu's hand emitted a dazzling light, and Lin Yu charged towards the direction of the two-headed giant snake's eyes.
If all goes well, Lin Yu can shatter all eight eyes of the two-headed giant snake with a single strike.
However, at that moment, the young people of the Phoenix Clan made a move.
Unlike their previous composure, the young members of the Phoenix Clan transformed into ancient phoenixes and charged towards Lin Yu.
Its fiery red feathers, resembling a raging flame, rushed towards Lin Yu's direction.
"Bang!", "Bang!", "Bang!"...
The young man from the Phoenix Clan rudely bumped into Lin Yu, causing them to tremble together.
The two forces clashed violently—one was ice, the other fire!
Without a doubt, the young people of the Phoenix Clan naturally use fire-attribute magic.
As a member of the ancient phoenix clan, although he mostly used beast-taming techniques, using the power of fire was like an instinct to him.
The pathogenic element used by Lin Yu, however, primarily originated from the sword in his hand.
Two completely opposite elemental forces, one blue and one red, erupted in the sky above the Phoenix Clan's territory.
The Phoenix Tomb was originally a very quiet scene, but at this moment, it seemed as if a catastrophic disaster had occurred.
After Lin Yu and the young man from the Phoenix Clan fought, the entire world began to shake uncontrollably.
Countless towering trees were uprooted, and countless rocks tumbled down the entire cliff due to the constant trembling.
However, in the blink of an eye, the peaceful scene was completely shattered by Lin Yu and the young man from the Phoenix Clan.
As those who can guard the Phoenix Tomb, the young people of the Phoenix Clan are quite powerful.
However, the strength here is not weak. Compared to the ancient Phoenix Clan, their strength is quite insignificant in front of Lin Yu.
Lin Yu only used a portion of his power, and a rather limited portion at that, yet he was already able to hold his own against the young people of the Phoenix Clan.
If Lin Yu released even a fraction more of his power, he would surely have been able to utterly defeat the young Phoenix Clan members.
It was precisely this mercy that gave the young man from the Phoenix Clan a false sense of security, making him believe that if he gave it his all, he could fight Lin Yu to a standstill.
"You're too naive. I've given you countless chances before, but you just wouldn't listen to my advice," Lin Yu sighed softly.
The so-called power guarding the Phoenix Tomb is nothing more than this in comparison to him.
Could it be that Feng Nianzhi and the black-robed high priest really intend to stop me with this little bit of power?
"Hehe, it's time to end the game." Lin Yu chuckled, then slightly increased his damage output.
"Boom!"
The balance of power, which had been evenly matched just moments before, instantly began to tilt in Lin Yu's favor. The young man from the Phoenix Clan stared at Lin Yu in disbelief.
He had thought that with his full power, he could at least stop Lin Yu a little, but this time, he finally realized the gap between himself and Lin Yu.
"Roar!" The young woman from the Phoenix Clan roared, but in the face of absolute power, no matter how much she roared, it meant nothing.
The young phoenix's body burst into flames uncontrollably. This was fundamentally different from Nirvana, because at this moment, the flames on its body did not originate from itself, but from Lin Yu!
Despite being from the ancient Phoenix Clan and a true master of fire-attribute magic, the young Phoenix Clan member was still suffering greatly from the flames emanating from Lin Yu.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!" The young phoenix uncontrollably roared to the sky, the intense pain almost tearing him apart.
Lin Yu simply shook his head slightly. This step was actually a spell he used to refine a demonic beast, imitating the technique of beast taming.
All Lin Yu wanted was for these young people of the Phoenix Clan to experience what it's like to be driven around.
Lin Yu had already discovered this when he was the high priest in the black robe on the jade slip: the ancient phoenix clan was essentially an extremely arrogant race that didn't take other demon beasts seriously at all.
This is a normal mindset for ancient supreme demon beasts.
However, considering the cataclysmic disaster that will follow the Dao Qi era, these demonic beasts would be better off uniting to preserve their power to the greatest extent possible.
Now, Lin Yu is going to teach this young man from the Phoenix Clan a lesson.
Lin Yu's purpose in engaging in this series of fights was merely to educate the people.
After all, the strength of that young man from the Phoenix Clan was no match for him, especially since Lin Yu had unleashed his power, exceeding the limits of the restrictions.
Dealing with the young members of the Phoenix Clan would be as easy as dealing with an ant, but Lin Yu had no intention of doing so.
In this fantastical world, killing is the simplest thing.
However, Lin Yu, who has come from another era, naturally understands that he has more important things to do than killing.
Lin Yu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen something in an ancient book before, that the ancient phoenix clan was extremely arrogant and rarely killed.
But now it seems that while he was indeed extremely arrogant, he rarely killed any living beings, and there must be a reason for that!
Most of the creatures subdued by the ancient phoenix clan ended up like this: neither alive nor dead. Isn't this a case of extremely little killing?
"Roar!" The young man from the Phoenix Clan roared, seemingly unable to withstand the raging flames any longer.
