Even if Su Chen spares the Fire Phoenix Clan, without the Immortal Emperor, the Fire Phoenix Clan's past glory will surely vanish as quickly as the afterglow of the setting sun, leaving only endless darkness and sorrow.
Why do I say that?
Because the Demon Domain is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Here, strength is the only Principle of survival and the fundamental guarantee of standing. Human Race have been relegated to the lowest level because their strength is too weak.
The reason why the Fire Phoenix Clan was able to establish itself in the Demon Domain and stand at the very top is because they have several powerful Immortal Emperor. Feng Yan's strength is particularly renowned, and there are almost no living beings in the entire Demon Domain who can rival him.
After all, he was not only Peak Immortal Emperor, but also a divine beast!
Such formidable resources give the Fire Phoenix Clan a certain advantage in the allocation of resources in the Demon Domain.
But now that Feng Yan and several other Fire Phoenix Clan Immortal Emperor have all perished, the Fire Phoenix Clan will receive fewer and fewer resources in the future.
How can the Fire Phoenix Clan, deprived of resources, cultivate powerful warriors?
Furthermore, without the Immortal Emperor in charge, the Fire Phoenix Clan's former enemies would be eager to exact revenge.
Take, for example, the Ice Phoenix Clan, which has a long-standing grudge against the Fire Phoenix Clan.
Tens of millions of years ago, the Fire Phoenix Clan and the Ice Phoenix Clan fought a great war. In that war, the Ice Phoenix Clan lost, and lost completely.
Because of that battle, the Ice Phoenix Clan has been suppressed by the Fire Phoenix Clan ever since. The Fire Phoenix Clan once thought of annihilating the Ice Phoenix Clan, but even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse, and in the end they did not take the risk.
Although the Fire Phoenix Clan did not annihilate the Ice Phoenix Clan, the Ice Phoenix Clan did not fare particularly well either, because the Fire Phoenix Clan continued to plunder their resources, and they dared not resist.
Without the help of resources, the Ice Phoenix Clan has produced very few powerful individuals in the past tens of millions of years. To put it simply, in tens of millions of years, the Ice Phoenix Clan has not even produced a single Immortal Emperor!
You should know that the Ice Phoenix Clan is also a divine beast!
The divine beast's innate talent goes without saying, right?
That must be an extremely monstrous talent!
However, even though the Fire Phoenix Clan possesses monstrous talent for cultivation, without the help of resources, they can only reach the Immortal Sovereign Ninth Layer Peak at most!
Want to break through to the Immortal Emperor?
Don't even think about it!
Absolutely impossible!
Therefore, if the Ice Phoenix Clan knew that the Fire Phoenix Clan had lost its Immortal Emperor, they would definitely launch a frenzied revenge!
If the Fire Phoenix Clan isn't wiped out by then, that would be considered a good outcome!
Although the Dragon Clan is in a pretty bad situation, at least their Immortal Emperor are still alive. As long as these Immortal Emperor are around, they can still maintain their foothold in the Demon Domain even without Ao Wei. However, without Ao Wei, a Peak Immortal Emperor, the Dragon Clan's status will inevitably be affected to some extent.
But it's not a big problem. As long as they keep a low profile and play it safe, they can still return to their peak in the future.
The Fire Phoenix Clan knew full well that things would be tough for them in the future, but so what? It was better than being wiped out now, wasn't it?
As long as you're alive, maybe a miracle will happen?
Su Chen then looked at Ye Lingxi, a slight smile playing on his lips, as gentle as a spring breeze.
Ye Lingxi was taken aback, then blinked and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back and said with a faint smile, "Didn't you want a gift?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingxi immediately became excited and nodded quickly, "Mhm!"
Su Chen smiled, and then gently raised his hand, his slender fingers casually pointing towards the void. In an instant, a dazzling light flashed.
The Fallen Phoenix Sword appeared like a stunning swan, hovering before Su Chen. The Fallen Phoenix Sword emitted a cold, eerie light, seemingly capable of devouring the surrounding light. Ancient runes flowed faintly across its surface, and a terrifying Sword Intent spread out, causing the surrounding space and time to boil.
Ye Lingxi stared wide-eyed at the Fallen Phoenix Sword, then quickly checked her spatial ring; the Fallen Phoenix Sword had vanished from within.
She looked at him incredulously and said, "Brother, isn't my sword in my spatial ring? How did it end up with you?"
Su Chen smiled calmly, "When you're as strong as me, you can do it too."
"Forehead..."
Ye Lingxi's expression froze, and she finally smiled bitterly, "Alright, so being powerful really does mean you can do whatever you want."
Su Chen smiled slightly, then his gaze fell on the Fallen Phoenix Sword.
"Buzz!"
The Fallen Phoenix Sword emitted a sword cry, seemingly quite excited.
Su Chen's gaze was calm and indifferent. Then, he slowly reached out and grasped the hilt of the Fallen Phoenix Sword.
The instant his palm touched the hilt of the sword, a Sword Intent erupted from his body. This Sword Intent was no ordinary Sword Intent; the moment it appeared, it seemed capable of tearing apart all the illusions and pretenses in the world.
The space-time spanning hundreds of millions of miles was like fragile paper before this Sword Intent, instantly torn into countless fragments!
The surrounding airflow was also stirred up into chaos, howling and forming terrifying tornadoes that frantically swirled everything on the ground.
The terrifying Sword Intent contained endless Great Dao Principle. The fluctuation of each Principle was like the whisper of an ancient god, mysterious and terrifying.
Its power lies not only in its immense strength, but also in a Transcendence state of mind, a profound and pure understanding of the way of the Sword Dao that surpasses all the sword techniques of the Immortal Realm, as if it came from another higher dimension.
Everyone present, including Ye Lingxi and Yan Qingwu, turned deathly pale as they watched this scene, their eyes filled with boundless fear and disbelief.
That terrifying Sword Intent, like an invisible mountain, instantly pressed down on them, and how could they possibly withstand such a terrifying Sword Intent?
He immediately knelt down!
Even the Immortal Emperor present were not spared!
They were all forcibly suppressed to the ground by this Sword Intent!
Xiao Jing gasped, his eyes widening in horror. He tried to get up and mobilize the immense power within his body to resist the Sword Intent, but the terrifying Sword Intent was like an invisible chain, binding him tightly.
Xiao Jing's face was deathly pale, his body trembled uncontrollably, every inch of his skin felt as if it were being pierced by icy needles, and cold sweat rolled down his forehead, soaking his robes.
Ling Xu knelt firmly on the ground, crying out in terror, "I... holy crap!"
The other Human Race Immortal Emperor had similar expressions to him, and even Qingluan felt endless despair at this moment!
Yun Cangming's face had lost all color, and his deep, calm eyes were filled with an almost tangible fear and pain.
powerful!
So strong!
They had never seen such terrifying and powerful Sword Intent!
This Sword Intent left him with no thought of resistance!
Not a single one!
It seemed that faced with this Sword Intent, he could only quietly await his death!
There's nothing we can do!
