"Pleading for votes."
Hua!
Following the powerful aura that erupted from Huang Tian's body, the red-colored Dou Qi flowed around Huang Tian's body like a river.
The red halo of fighting energy slowly condensed into a huge shadow of a Heaven Demon Phoenix behind Huang Tian.
No …
To be precise, it was not the Heaven Demon Phoenix Illusion. It was the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion.
The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix was the ancestor of the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe. The powerful Ancient Heavenly Phoenix fed on young Ancient Void Dragons.
The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix could not be weak. However, even a strong Ancient Heavenly Phoenix would fall one day.
Although the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe had the blood of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix flowing in their veins, they could not be compared to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe was a 'defective product' in front of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix.
Although they were descendants.
Their bloodline, strength and talent could not be compared to their ancestor.
It could be said that they were going downhill.
Therefore …
The Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe placed great importance on their bloodline. The tribe members could not marry outside the tribe. If a powerful tribe member died, they could only be hidden in the tribe's forbidden grounds.
They would not allow the bloodline of the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe to be exposed.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe could be said to have done a good job of protecting their bloodline. However, no matter how good their bloodline protection was, it could not change the fact that they were declining.
Since ancient times …
The Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe had become weaker.
This was an indisputable fact.
…
Boom!
When the huge Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion appeared behind Huang Tian, it let out a long cry. A terrifying aura was emitted from it.
With a "boom", the entire hall collapsed at this moment, raising dust all over the sky.
Swoosh!
…
Due to Huang Tian's intervention, Hun Xiu's aura became weaker compared to the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe's experts.
This allowed many experts from the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe to escape with their lives the moment the large hall collapsed.
Huang Tian stood in the void. Behind him was the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix that was emitting an endless pressure. Huang Tian's aura gradually weakened.
Hun Xiu had been seriously injured to begin with. He had been lucky enough to escape, but before he could fully recover, Hun Xiu had come knocking on his door.
He had no choice but to make a move, causing him, who had just recovered a bit of his strength, to be beaten back to his original state.
Huang Tian looked down at the collapsed palace without any joy. He really didn't think this was a problem for Hun Xiu.
Heaven Demon Phoenix Wings appeared on the backs of the experts of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe who managed to escape. They stood in the void.
The dust gradually dispersed in all directions. Hun Xiu and Zi Yan walked out unscathed. Although the sky was filled with dust, not a single speck of dust could get close to them. Their bodies were still spotless.
Hun Xiu looked at Huang Tian, who was in the sky. His gaze was on the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix behind Huang Tian. He said indifferently, "I never thought that the Heavenly Demon Phoenix bloodline would be able to condense the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix's shadow."
"Huang Tian, it seems that your bloodline isn't weak!"
Huang Tian didn't answer Hun Xiu's question. Instead, he looked down at Hun Xiu. "Young master Hun Xiu, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe didn't intend to be enemies with the Hun Clan.
"The attack on the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe was careless. We're willing to compensate. Please be magnanimous, young master Hun Xiu."
Huang Tian couldn't see through Hun Xiu's strength. However, he could feel the aura emitted from Hun Xiu's body. It was as deep as the sea. It was stronger than Hun Sha, one of the four demon saints of the Hun Clan.
Therefore …
Huang Tian, who had calmed down, knew what to do. His tribe had suffered great losses, but Hun Xiu was still unscathed.
It was no surprise that Hun Xiu alone could destroy the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe.
What else could he do other than swallow his fear?
Avenge the experts of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe who died?
Dream on.
Not to mention that he was severely injured and had less than ten percent of his combat strength left.
Even if he was at his peak, he wouldn't be a match for Hun Xiu.
He had no other choice but to admit defeat.
"Compensation?"
Hun Xiu stepped in the air and walked towards Huang Tian. He smiled evilly and said, "That's between the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe and the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. I won't interfere."
"Huang Tian, don't tell me you still don't know why I came to the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe?"
"Do you really think that the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe is worth the experts of the Hun Clan?"
"Hmm?"
Huang Tian frowned when he heard Hun Xiu's words. He originally thought that Hun Xiu was here for the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe.
Now, it seemed like that wasn't the case.
It made sense.
Although the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe was on the Hun Clan's coattails, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe had been attacking the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe for a long time.
They didn't see the experts of the Hun Clan take action. If the experts of the Hun Clan took action, no, even if the experts of the Hun Clan took action, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe wouldn't have attacked the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe.
However …
No.
Not at all.
Hun Sha, one of the Four Demon Saints of the Hun Clan, took action because of a woman.
He addressed that woman as "Madam".
Huang Tian recalled that alluring figure and immediately came to a realization. Fear gradually surfaced on his face.
Hun Xiu looked at Huang Tian's expression and roughly guessed that Huang Tian already knew.
He said in a deep voice, "I think you have already guessed that the woman is my wife. Now you know why I am here!"
"I …"
Huang Tian instantly understood when he heard Hun Xiu's words.
So that was the reason!
No wonder Hun Sha, the hidden expert of the Hun Clan, took action and said that he coveted someone he shouldn't covet.
At that time, he was still a little confused. Now that Hun Xiu was here, he completely came to a realization.
No wonder.
No wonder!
It turned out that he had really coveted someone he shouldn't have coveted.
Huang Tian said, "Young master Hun Xiu, do you think there is any way to turn this around?"
Hun Xiu smiled faintly and said, "Do you think that is possible?"
An invisible force quietly flowed out of Hun Xiu's body. His actions clearly explained everything.
Huang Tian said solemnly, "Looks like we can only settle this today."
Huang Tian's expression was ugly. He was prepared to admit defeat and compensate, but he didn't expect that it wouldn't work.
No matter what, this was the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe. It was his home ground.
He had already lowered his voice and didn't care that Hun Xiu had killed an elder of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe. He wanted to reconcile.
However, he still didn't give up.
Even if the tiger didn't show its might, it knew that it could only be slaughtered when Huang Tian was injured.
Hun Xiu nodded when he saw Huang Tian's expression. He said, "That should be the case."
Huang Tian said in a deep voice, "Therefore, we are under attack. Get into formation."
His voice reverberated throughout the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe for a long time.
"Understood!"
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
…
Many rushing wind sounds were heard. Countless Heaven Demon Phoenixes arrived from all directions. The strongest was Kun Huang, who was an advanced One Star level Dou Sheng. The weakest was a Dou Wang. They relied on a pair of Heaven Demon Phoenix wings to float in the air.
They continuously gathered towards Huang Tian. Layer by layer, they appeared in the sky above Huang Tian. They were densely packed.
Hun Xiu watched all of this curiously. He didn't take any action. He wanted to see what tricks Huang Tian had up his sleeves.
Zi Yan, who was beside him, asked, "Hun Xiu, do you want to take action now?"
Hun Xiu shook his head and said, "There's no need. Let's see what tricks Huang Tian has up his sleeves.
In the face of true power, no matter how flashy it is, it will be unable to withstand a single blow. "
"Alright."
Zi Yan nodded when she heard Hun Xiu's words. She accompanied Hun Xiu as more and more Heaven Demon Phoenixes appeared. They floated in the sky above Huang Tian.
When no one was around, Huang Tian shouted, "Formation, rise!"
"Yes!"
Powerful Dou Qi surged out from the bodies of the Dou Wangs at the top. They flowed down and finally gathered on Huang Tian's body.
Huang Tian's originally weak aura gradually dissipated. His face became ruddy. The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion behind him became more solid. It emitted a more terrifying and powerful aura.
Huang Tian was supported by the strength of the entire tribe. He felt that he could do it again. He looked at Hun Xiu and said, "Hun Xiu, I gave you a chance. You didn't cherish it. Don't blame me for what happens next."
"I admit that you are very powerful. However, no matter how powerful you are, you shouldn't have brought only one person to the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe."
"You should know that a powerful tribe like ours has its own trump cards."
"Hun Xiu, I will give you another chance. How about we turn hostility into friendship?
As for compensation, forget about it.
After all, you killed so many of my tribe's experts. Let's both take a step back. "
Hun Xiu sneered and said, "Huang Tian, do you think you can do it again with this so-called combination formation?"
Huang Tian said confidently, "Of course."
"Hun Xiu, you don't know how terrifying this formation is. With this formation, I am confident that even your father, Hun Tiandi, won't be able to escape."
"Haha …"
When Hun Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. He said mockingly, "This is the funniest joke I have ever heard."
"It's just a combination formation. It's just a small trick. I can break it.
You even asked my father to come. "
"You think too highly of you."
"Is that so?"
Huang Tian didn't want to argue with Hun Xiu. Since Hun Xiu didn't give them a chance, they could only fight.
"Phoenix Guiying!"
Huang Tian pointed his finger. The solid Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion behind him flew towards Hun Xiu.
The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion let out a long cry. The sound waves caused the space to collapse. A terrifying aura filled the area.
"You want to show off your power with just an illusion?"
Hun Xiu sneered.
The Xuanyuan Sword appeared in his hand. He looked at the huge Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion and narrowed his eyes.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, he slashed out with his sword.
The Sword Qi was forty meters long. It was terrifyingly sharp. The space shattered when it came into contact with the Sword Qi.
The dark area became particularly eye-catching because of the appearance of the golden Sword Qi. It was so fast that it was like a meteor streaking across the sky.
Rumble.
The golden Sword Qi landed on the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion. The space shook until it shattered. A terrifying power burst out from the point of collision.
The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion let out a long cry. Its sharp voice reverberated throughout the area.
The huge figure gradually became illusory as the voice rang out.
Boom!
The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion disappeared. The golden Sword Qi was still shining brightly. It slashed towards the phoenix and all the Heaven Demon Phoenixes.
Huang Tian was stunned.
He didn't expect the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Illusion to be defeated. Moreover, it was defeated so quickly.
When he saw the golden light coming towards him, he didn't hesitate.
He gathered the power of all the experts in his tribe to form a shield.
"Heaven Demon Phoenix Illusion, appear?"
The shield was huge and blood-red in color. There was a Heaven Demon Phoenix Illusion on the shield. Blood-red fighting energy flowed around the shield. It was very mysterious.
Rumble.
As soon as the blood-red shield appeared, the golden Sword Qi landed on it. Then, there was a loud rumble.
Heaven and earth trembled. The sky darkened. It was as if the entire world was about to be destroyed.
Whoosh!
The golden Sword Qi was destroyed and disappeared. The only ray of light in the dim world disappeared.
The Sword Qi disappeared. The blood-red shield couldn't be maintained. Gradually, cracks appeared on it and it disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the scene, Huang Tian's confidence was shaken.
Hun Xiu only slashed once.
He broke two of his attacks.
It was enough to show how powerful Hun Xiu was. He couldn't be compared to him at all. Even if he gathered the power of the entire tribe, he couldn't do anything to him.
Hun Xiu stood with his sword. He looked at Huang Tian and said, "Now, your invincible heart should be shattered, right?"
"What other tricks do you have? Just use them!
Because you won't have any chance later. "
Hun Xiu stood in the sky. The sword essence on his body was overwhelming. The aura of a King spread out. He was like a natural-born King of Swords. He was above heaven and earth. He was extremely domineering.
Huang Tian said, "I don't believe it."
Huang Tian's face turned ugly. He had cultivated for thousands of years. As the leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe, he had never been underestimated.
Then.
A junior who wasn't even fifty years old dared to humiliate him. He was furious.
"Heavenly Phoenix Finger."
Huang Tian pointed his finger. He didn't believe that Hun Xiu was invincible. He didn't believe that he couldn't hurt Hun Xiu with the power of the entire tribe.
Hun Xiu sneered. He was about to break it with his sword again. Zi Yan stood up and said, "Hun Xiu, don't attack. Watch me."
"Hm?"
Hun Xiu looked at Zi Yan. When he saw that she was serious, he nodded and said, "Alright, it's up to you."
As he spoke, he took a step back.
He knew.
Zi Yan was an advanced two star Dou Sheng. She couldn't block this finger. However, he couldn't reject Zi Yan's request.
He believed that with him around, no one could hurt Zi Yan in front of him. Even Huang Tian couldn't.
"Roar …"
Purple Dou Qi flowed around Zi Yan. An earth-shaking dragon roar sounded from her body. It reverberated in the sky and didn't disappear for a long time.
A huge purple dragon shadow gradually appeared. It was extremely real. The dragon's eyes stared at the Heaven Demon Phoenix tribe in disdain.
…
In the northeast region of the Central Region.
A burly man held a crystal ball and muttered, "It has been more than a month. Why isn't there any reaction from the crystal ball?"
"Could it be that the previous reaction was wrong?
The Emperor didn't appear at all? "
Hua!
The man had just finished speaking when the crystal ball in his hand shone brightly. The light was so strong that the entire area was filled with purple light. It was really dazzling.
"This …"
The man held the crystal ball excitedly. His body trembled slightly.
