Chapter 557: Chapter 556: Zhu Yan Flees in Fear, That Person Has Arrived! [Second Update]

The flames erupted like pillars, colliding with the tidal wave of demon force.

The result was not a hindrance at all.

Instead, the Vermilion Bird Dharma Aspect was violently shaken and nearly dissipated on the spot.

The Vermilion Bird Sect Leader fell out of the Grand Array, coughing up blood, his face pale.

What is meant by being crushed?

This is being crushed.

Although the saying that beneath the Quasi-Saint all are ants was shattered by that legend from the Eastern Desolate Daoist Court.

Yet, for the rest of the world, a Quasi-Saint remains an insurmountable mountain.

Boom!

The demon wave descended, and the Immortal Sect’s Main Peak collapsed instantly.

Dust and smoke scattered in all directions, a haze overshadowing everything.

The Grand Array that could gather the source blood energy of the people, its array patterns dulled, was destroyed.

All disciples of the sect who were igniting their blood essence were overturned by an invisible force, their source blood energy stopped boiling.

Clearly.

The Quasi-Saint Demon Race lounging over Southern Heaven Continent would not allow them to waste their blood energy.

Because in Zhu Yan’s eyes, the flesh and blood of all beings in Southern Heaven Continent belonged to it!

Rumble!

At this moment, the sky trembled again.

It was the massive Demon Pot.

Everything was prepared, Zhu Yan exhaled, and scarlet demon light spewed into the Demon Pot, which hung in the sky, emitting a humming sound.

Like an eerie red sun, it cast red light over the entire Southern Heaven Continent.

Those still harboring illusions, trying to flee, were the first to encounter the red light, their bodies instantly turned to blood water, dying silently.

Those hiding in seclusion in great mountains had no chance to emerge; together with the mountains, they were covered by the red light and melted away.

The red light was eerie and terrifying, melting mountains upon contact, and water upon contact.

Even if touched by Immortal Kings or Immortal Emperors, they would be instantly obliterated.

The terrifying scene was akin to when Great Ming King Peacock had melted Jambudvipa Continent.

The whole Southern Heaven Continent was filled with wails.

"Why does the Southern Immortal Realm always suffer such disasters..."

"If the Bodhisattva were still here, would they dare, would they dare!!"

Countless beings were enraged but powerless.

Could only despairingly watch the red light approaching.

"Southern Heaven Continent will cease to exist..."

Countless murmured, their faces dejected, hopelessly witnessing the arrival of death.

Outside, the demon powerhouses wore faces of mockery; inherently fierce, they had been constrained in the past and couldn’t act as they wished.

Now, with a decree from the Demon Ancestor, allowing them to slaughter at will.

This naturally excites them, fuels their fervor!

"Though reluctantly leaving the Eastern Domain, the thrill of a massacre in the Southern Domain is exhilarating!"

"It’s said the damned Lord of the Dao Court ascended from this Southern Heaven Continent; now that we’re refining this continent, it’s at least relieving!"

"Correct, once the Donghuang Bell fully displays its former might, once the Demon Ancestor secures a Saint position, then shall we return to the Eastern Domain!"

"Then, that Dao Court must turn into a sea of corpses and blood, fall into ancient history!"

A group of demon kings bore fierce expressions, their words dripping with ruthlessness.

Yet just then.

A streak of flowing light suddenly shot from the horizon, as fierce as a rushing river, as fast as a Thunder Pool’s thunder.

The people hadn’t reacted yet.

Only heard a resounding clang from the sky.

Looking up, they saw that hanging, emitting red light Demon Pot, suddenly shatter into pieces with a crisp sound.

???

The sudden change left the countless beings of Southern Heaven Continent, already resigned to death, stunned and confused.

Also halted the laughter of the demon kings outside Southern Heaven Continent.

No one knew what happened.

Except for the terrifying beast Zhu Yan, which cast its gaze towards the cloud sea millions of miles away.

Its expression quickly shifted.

From indifference to uncertainty, to gravity, ultimately losing color in horror, its face filled with panic.

"What... what happened?"

The group of demon kings sensed something, their expressions turning tense and serious.

"Who’s coming?"

They also looked towards Zhu Yan’s line of sight, within moments, witnessing the clouds rapidly flushing red.

Clearly, a terrifying presence was approaching at an astonishing speed.

"Here, it comes!!"

The demon kings’ expressions turned serious, their hearts leaping to their throats, as a pair of large wings flowed with Celestial Fire, appearing in the cloud sea.

The faces of the demon kings instantly turned incredibly ugly.

"Phoenix Ancestor!"

"What does it intend to do?"

"Our Demon Race Celestial Court spared its surroundings, how dare it ruin our Celestial Court’s matter?"

The demon kings present were all enraged, not expecting the Phoenix Ancestor to be so audacious.

Yet, as that mass of Fire Cloud rapidly approached, a demon king of Ancestor Immortal Level suddenly noticed something even more terrifying.

"Wait... wait..."

"Beside the Phoenix Ancestor, who is that?"

"Why do they look familiar? Could it be..."

Its face turned abruptly pale, exclaiming, "Damn! The Lord of the Dao Court from Eastern Desolate Continent!!"

This statement made the other demon kings change color.

They watched in horror, the slender figure beside the Phoenix Ancestor becoming ever clearer.

Finally, all demon kings instinctively shuddered, yelling in hysteria, "Oh my god, it’s truly him!"

"This guy, not stationed in the Eastern Domain, why did he come here?"

"Damn, what now?"

Their faces were ashen, urgently looking to Zhu Yan.

Zhu Yan’s face was equally ugly, as if having swallowed a dead rat.

Almost instantly, it made a decision, with demon wind swirling beneath its feet, it turned and fled to the horizon.

"What’s happening?"

The beings of Southern Heaven Continent were bewildered.

Not understanding why the terrifying Zhu Yan suddenly showed terror and fled far away.

But in the next second, all beings saw an endless Sword Qi, cleaving from the distant horizon.

All Zhu Yan’s white fur stood erect, turning hastily and fearfully to resist, its whole body shrouded in scarlet light, forming a sun-like halo.

Appearing unbreakable, wondrous.

Yet, beneath that Sword Qi, the supreme halo Zhu Yan summoned by sacrificing its source blood energy, was like fragile porcelain. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

With a clang, shattering into countless pieces on the spot.

Crack!

The Sword Qi struck Zhu Yan, cleaving its half body, its skin splitting, and blood poured like torrential rain over the sky.

The massive impact sent Zhu Yan plummeting from the sky, shattering several suspended islands, crashing into the earth, and forming an immense crater.

Silence.

All of Southern Heaven Continent fell silent.

Countless beings were stunned by the sudden change.

Until the fiery cloud sea surged.

Only then did they see above the clouds was the heaven-covering Fire Phoenix.

And alongside the Fire Phoenix was a slender figure, draped in a Purple Gold Daoist Robe, flowing with Purple Gold Immortal Light, his form beside the Phoenix appearing ever so small.

Yet his presence made it seem as though the world contained only his figure.
