Chapter 667: Mysterious Tombstone



Bam!

The golden flames detached from the Heavenly Phoenix’s body and surged towards Long Chen. They twisted and changed into a golden bird on the way. Although the flaming bird was small, it was much more regal-looking than the Heavenly Phoenix.

Wait, is that what a Divine Phoenix looks like?

The Divine Phoenix was the king of birds. Even though it was a fake, Long Chen was stunned by its beauty. However, he quickly snapped out of it since the dangerous attack was just in front of him. He had no time to admire its beauty when his life was at stake.

“Xiaolang!”

Long Chen knew that he could suppress the Heavenly Phoenix, so there was no need for him to risk his life needlessly. He was confident that he could endure the attack head-on, but he also knew he would be injured. Since the Heavenly Phoenix had sensed that its life was in danger, it had activated the Divine Phoenix’s blood inside of its body to form this attack. It wouldn’t be easy to defend against it.

The only attack stronger than it right now would be the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire.

The Nine Devils Ancestral Fire had never failed before. Xiaolang had started preparing it as soon as he saw the Heavenly Phoenix’s ultimate attack. He was worried about Long Chen being killed by it

Even if Long Chen had never called for him, Xiaolang would’ve acted now. He had been observing the battle and positioned himself at a distance between the Heavenly Phoenix and Long Chen. The moment Long Chen called for him, he pounced forward and shot out all of the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire that he could muster.

The temperature around the plaza plummeted the moment he released the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire. The black flames blanketed the ground and surged towards the golden flames. The Heavenly Phoenix’s ultimate attack was fast, but the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire still swallowed it since Xiaolang had anticipated it.

Two different flames, one extremely hot and the other extremely cold, clashed in front of Long Chen. He quickly used the Nine Spinning Fire Shield, though the explosion blew him backwards. Thankfully, it was only the aftershock of the impact, or it would’ve been bad for him.

The Nine Devils Ancestral Fire was an Ancestral Fire, a type of fire far beyond regular flames; even the flames from the Golden Crow and the Divine Phoenix combined wouldn’t be able to snuff it out. The ultimate attack from the Heavenly Phoenix was strong, but it was no match for the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire. The Nine Devils Ancestral Fire quickly converted the attack and added it to its own mass before Xiaolang swallowed it whole.

Xiaolang had initially eaten only a minuscule portion of the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire and could use only a portion of that. But that was enough.

The Heavenly Phoenix was surprised to see its strongest attack was consumed by the strange, black wolf. Somehow, its eyes revealed a blank stare even though it was a demonic beast.

The other demonic beasts were silent too.

When the Heavenly Phoenix used its strongest attack, the other demonic beasts had remained motionless because they were afraid of the power behind that attack, but now it had disappeared without any warning.

None of them knew what had happened.

The Heavenly Phoenix finally felt fear for Xiaolang.

This was the first time it had felt a sense of dread.

Long Chen noticed that the Heavenly Phoenix was afraid and immediately sprung into action. He finally cornered it and refused to let it go, charing at it the moment the golden phoenix disappeared.

“Blood Devouring Domain!” Long Chen used one of his secret techniques at the best moment. The blood-red mist replaced the natural, white mist. The Heavenly Phoenix and Xiaolang were enveloped in the area of effect. Due to his increased essence reserves, Long Chen’s Blood Devouring Domain’s strength had also increased, so even the Heavenly Phoenix was affected by the suppressive power of the domain.

The Heavenly Phoenix was further frightened by the appearance of the Blood Devouring Domain. The once proud and courageous Heavenly Phoenix had lost its composure. Due to the debilitating effects of the Blood Devouring Domain, the Heavenly Phoenix had failed to realize when Long Chen appeared in front of it.

“Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw, Nine Heavens Strike!” Long Chen unleashed his strongest technique. Nine dragons coiled around the defenseless Heavenly Phoenix and carved out numerous flesh wounds on its body.

Feathers and blood sprayed everywhere.

“Wind God Kick, Wind God Style!” Long Chen kicked the Heavenly Phoenix’s head with full force. It was already in a daze due to the previous attack, and now Long Chen’s kick caused it to cry out in agony.

The impact caused the Heavenly Phoenix to crash into Sky Isle. Long Chen estimated that he only needed to attack a few more times to kill it since it had already been hit by the Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw and the Wind God Kick.

Xiaolang pounced towards the Heavenly Phoenix without hesitation and crashed into it like a cannonball, causing it to fly to the depths of Sky Isle!

Bam!

It landed behind the plaza. Long Chen was chasing after it when he suddenly noticed a strange, black tombstone at the point of impact. The tombstone was roughly four to five meters tall.

He initially paid no mind to it until he realized that the tombstone was somehow still standing even after the Heavenly Phoenix had crashed into it. The buildings in the isle were in ruins, but there wasn’t a single crack on the tombstone. Rather than breaking into pieces, a strange layer of light had deflected the Heavenly Phoenix’s body.

Long Chen was right. When the Heavenly Phoenix touched the strange tombstone, a gray rune flashed and sent the Heavenly Phoenix crashing in the opposite direction. The Heavenly Phoenix rolled on the ground a few times before lying motionlessly. It was just a few breaths away from death at this point.

Xiaolang quickly bit the Heavenly Phoenix’s head and broke it apart using the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire in his mouth. He cracked open the skull, took out a fist-sized golden demonic core, and ate it.

The Heavenly Phoenix was dead and its demonic core had been consumed.

Xiaolang had landed the final blow after Long Chen defeated it.

The death of the Heavenly Phoenix benefited both of them. Xiaolang would be able to increase his strength again through digesting the demonic core while Long Chen could use the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix to revive Huangfu Qi. Long Chen quickly stored the corpse in the Primordial Realm to save the blood.

“Big Brother, I need to refine the power from the demonic core as soon as possible. I hope that I will be able to help you contest for the Ancient Token soon. I will leave Qi Qi to you,” Mo Xiaolang said quickly as he transformed into a human.

Long Chen nodded and let him into the Primordial Realm.

The loud battlefield had turned silent. The other demonic beasts had flown up high after the death of the Heavenly Phoenix. None of them dared to perch on Sky Isle, so they merely cried out loud in the air, including the demonic beasts at the Category One and Two King-tier.

They were afraid of Long Chen.

Long Chen ignored them and focused on the strange tombstone.

There must be some secret to it if it even deflected the Heavenly Phoenix.

But … I need to save Huangfu Qi first. I will have to check it another time.

Fat Cat appeared out from the Primordial Realm and observed the tombstone too. “Hmmm … These are the ruins of a sect, and looking at the buildings’ condition, I think it’s around ten thousand years old or more. Maybe it’s a ruin from the Middle Ages. The tombstone should contain some of the martial techniques of the ruined sect. You should check it out. Maybe you will get something out of it.”

Fat Cat had always prided himself on his knowledge.
