Chapter 2214 The Deathless Monarch

Should it not have been difficult to light up even a single star on the constellation map?

Why would everything suddenly light up together when he had not really done anything?

While Zhang Xuan was still trying to make sense out of this abnormal situation, the three clan heads behind were rubbing their eyes again and again, fearing that their eyes were playing tricks on them.

Lighting up a hundred stars meant that one possessed the ability to receive the conferment of a God Monarch. If all the stars lit up… did it mean that the conferment was not a big deal to him at all?

“How could this be?”

The three clan heads found themselves incapable of accepting such an outcome.

It was not just about the young man lighting all the stars up but how fast he was able to do so!

It had only been ten breaths since he came into contact with the sculpture, and all of the stars were already releasing brilliant glows, as if they were desperate to outshine one another.

Even the old ancestors of their clans, full-fledged Conferred God Kings, would not be able to do something like that!

“Could it be that the constellation map is malfunctioning?” Feng Hanxue asked doubtfully.

“His Sovereignty’s will is inside. How could it possibly be malfunctioning?” Feng Yuanchi immediately shot down that notion.

This was a constellation map of the entire Sky of Spirit Origin, and the will of the Deathless Monarch was infused within it. The very idea that it could malfunction was ridiculous!

The only possibility, as difficult as it might be to believe it, was that the young man had cleared the test with his true skills.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xuan reassessed the stone phoenix sculpture before him.

Since the pressure coming from the phoenix had finally alleviated, he could not help but notice that the aura it emanated was extremely familiar. It was something that he had felt many times before.

This is… Little Chick’s aura? Zhang Xuan thought with clenched fists.

Was his previous conjecture correct? Was that fellow really the Deathless Monarch of the Sky of Spirit Origin?

With this thought in mind, Zhang Xuan quickly sent a telepathic message to Little Chick. “Hey, come out and see if you recognize this phoenix…”

Hu!

Little Chick materialized right in front of Zhang Xuan.

Looking at the sculpture before it, it cocked its head to the side as saliva started dripping from the corner of its lips. With dazed eyes, it muttered beneath its breath, “Hungry…”

Without any warning, it leaped into the air.

Hu!

In a single mouthful, it swallowed the whole sculpture.

“You… What are you doing!” Feng Yuanchi and the others were taken aback by this abrupt development.

That sculpture had the will of their God Monarch in it, and a chick had swallowed it whole.

Zhang Xuan was also horrified.

I only called you out here to take a look so as to see if you are able to remember anything, but you actually swallowed the other party whole…

How am I supposed to explain this to the clan heads?

They will dice me into pieces!

Zhang Xuan’s head slowly creaked in trepidation to look behind him, and just as he had thought, there were three heads with infernos blazing in their eyes directed toward him.

The stone phoenix sculpture was clearly something of great significance to the Sky of Spirit Origin, possibly on the level of a national artifact, so watching someone else swallow it right before their eyes was like a huge slap to their faces.

There was no one in their position who could tolerate something like that!

“Feng Xuan, hand that chick over right now!”

“You are courting death…”

The three clan heads bellowed furiously as powerful auras burst forth from their bodies. They were going to make their moves.

But before they could really make a move, the ground began trembling intensely.

The stone phoenix sculpture was the centerpiece of Spirit God Palace, and its disappearance dealt a fatal blow to it. The spiritual energy harnessed within the palace began dissipating into the surroundings, and chunks of the buildings began falling to the ground.

The three clan heads had to struggle for a brief moment before they regained their balance.

Boom!

As if an earthquake had struck the massive Spirit God Palace, an entire half of it immediately collapsed inward. Furthermore, with spiritual energy continuously leaking from it, it looked like the palace would collapse from the sky at any moment.

“T-this…” Zhang Xuan was on the verge of tears as he watched the destruction unfold before his eyes.

He had heard from his direct disciples that back when he was still on the Master Teacher Continent, there were quite a few people who called him the God of Destruction.

Back then, he had felt a little confused about why other people addressed him like that. After all, he had never intended to destroy those things; it was always due to a series of unfortunate coincidences!

But he had never thought that the day would come when he ended up tearing down his girlfriend’s home as well.

It was like a son-in-law was visiting his father-in-law for the first time, but before the father-in-law could open the door, the son-in-law had already thrown a stick of dynamite in to blow the house into pieces.

Oh dear heavens, why did you have to play such a prank on me?

Zhang Xuan wanted to cry out loud that it was not his fault, but it was a fact that Little Chick was his tamed beast, and he was the one who had summoned it out.

There was no way he could explain himself like that.

“Wait a moment. I know that all of you are very agitated now, but as fellow members of a civilized society, let’s talk things out and not resort to violence. You see, I don’t think that Little Chick intended to do that either. There must be a good reason for that, so let’s listen to its explanation, alright?” Zhang Xuan said as he quickly formed a barrier around him in case the three clan heads made a move.

He was setting up the barrier not to fend off the three clan heads’ attacks but to protect them from being harmed by Little Chick! As adorable as Little Chick might appear to be, looks were deceiving. It was actually a very dangerous animal that would not hesitate to gobble a person whole.

If Little Chick really devoured the three clan heads as well, he would really be in deep trouble.

“Humph! You can slowly tell us all of the reasons you have once we have taken you down!”

The three clan heads bellowed furiously as they gathered their strength to tear apart Zhang Xuan’s barrier. At this moment, however, a resounding voice suddenly boomed deafeningly in the air.

“What happened?”

Three more silhouettes appeared right before the crowd. There was a cold glint in their eyes.

“Paying respects to the old ancestors…”

The three clan heads immediately bowed down to pay respects to the three silhouettes.

They were the three Conferred God Kings of the Sky of Spirit Origin, the Fire Feather Conferred God King, the Glacier Feather Conferred God King, and the Tempestuous Feather Conferred God King!

These three old ancestors had been alarmed when they sensed the instability of Spirit God Palace.

“Let’s first stabilize Spirit God Palace before dealing with this…”

A portion of Spirit God Palace had already collapsed, and the formation sustaining it was swiftly losing energy.

Without any hesitation, the three Conferred God Kings immediately channeled their energy together in order to form a large sphere around the floating Spirit God Palace. The destruction slowly ground to a halt, and the dissipating spiritual energy was trapped within the sphere as well.

The collapsed portions had not been repaired yet, but at the very least, they had prevented the worst from occurring.

Once that was done, they turned their gazes back to the three clan heads, and the Fire Feather Conferred God King ordered, “Explain yourselves.”

“Old ancestor, Feng Xuan here is the most formidable genius among the younger generation of our clan…” Feng Yuanchi quickly began explaining how things came to be.

This included how Zhang Xuan’s soul cultivation had reached God King realm pinnacle despite his young age, how he had lit up all the stars on the constellation map, and the sudden appearance of a little yellow chick that swallowed the sculpture of the God Monarch.

“You managed to light up all of the stars on the constellation map?”

The three Conferred God Kings stared at Zhang Xuan with incredulous expressions.

Even they would be unable to pull off a feat like that.

“I was lucky.” Zhang Xuan clasped his fist. “Little Chick is my tamed beast, and it didn’t intend to swallow the God Monarch’s sculpture. I ask of you to pardon it…”

The Fire Feather Conferred God King harrumphed as he looked at the little yellow chick with cold eyes. “It’s an act of blasphemy to treat His Sovereignty’s sculpture in such a manner, as well as a show of grave disrespect toward the Sky of Spirit Origin. This warrants the death penalty!”

The Glacier Feather Conferred God King glanced at Zhang Xuan and said frostily, “Even though it wasn’t your primary intention for this happen, it doesn’t change the fact that the chick is your tamed beast. You have to take responsibility for its mistakes…”

“Let’s not waste time and do it,” the Tempestuous Feather Conferred God King said.

The three Conferred God Kings raised their hands, and the entire world began trembling uncontrollably. It was almost as if the Armageddon was happening right before their eyes.

At this moment, an impassive voice rumbled from Spirit God Palace behind them, causing the world to turn even darker.

“The three of you wish to kill me? The gall of you!”

Right before everyone’s eyes, a humongous silhouette of a black phoenix appeared behind the adorable little yellow chick. Its wingspan was large enough to rival the size of Spirit God Palace, and there was no being that could not appear insignificant in its presence.

“God Monarch…”

The three Conferred God Kings gasped in astonishment, and they quickly kneeled on the ground.
