Yao Yan did not care about Tianhuang's promise. After all, this is a fantasy world where strength is respected. When you are strong enough, others will naturally fulfill their promise to you. But when you are not strong enough, he doesn't think that the other party will bow down and recognize him as the boss... It has nothing to do with anything else, it's just human nature.
Hearing the conversation between the two, the long-legged lady next to them was stunned, and then looked at her father in confusion. Is there still an ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan alive? !
Why had she never heard of this?
However, Tianhuang could not care about anything else now. He looked at Yao Yan with nervous and anxious eyes. His mind was obviously all on his ancestor. He really wanted to know what his ancestor's current condition was and whether the Emperor of Heaven could really make him recover. These would determine the future of the Jiuyou Bird Clan.
"It's a deal." Yao Yan nodded slightly, and then a hint of chaotic light flowed in his dark eyes. An invisible power was revealed, causing everyone's heartbeat to pause, as if they were suppressed by something.
He looked at the figure in the center of the mountain below, with the aura of chaotic energy flickering all around him. Then he took a step forward and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Heaven...Emperor of Heaven, what is this?!" Tianhuang, the patriarch of the Nine Nether Bird Clan, looked around in panic, not knowing where the Emperor of Heaven had gone.
"Be patient." Venerable Long said soothingly, then slowly closed his eyes, extending his spiritual consciousness towards the center of the mountain range. He had not sensed anything special about this place before, and naturally it was impossible for him to discover the ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan, but now he could follow Yao Yan to get a glimpse of what was going on.
I don’t know which of the three ancestors the surviving ancestor of the Jiuyou Bird Clan is.
"Dad...what's going on with the ancestor?" Jiuyou watched all this, and the doubts in her heart became more and more intense. She couldn't help but ask. As the young master of the Jiuyou Bird Clan, she didn't even know these news, and had never even heard the slightest rumor. Her father did a very good job of keeping secrets.
“I just learned from the Emperor of Heaven that our clan’s ancestor is still alive, but he was seriously injured and has been locked up inside the holy mountain... As for the rest, I don’t know either, so I can only wait!” Tianhuang pondered for a moment and then explained the matter roughly.
Now that he knew that the ancestor was still alive, and with the recruitment of the Emperor of Heaven, some of the previous plans had to be scrapped, especially sending Jiuyou out for training… If Jiuyou could be trained personally by the Emperor of Heaven, the probability of him evolving into the ancient phoenix in the future would undoubtedly be much greater.
Especially the Spirit Transformation Pool!
It is a treasure left by many ancestors. In the ancient times, the Phoenix Clan formed a contract with other flying beast races. When the supreme being of each family is about to die, they will enter the Spirit Transformation Pool, dissolve their flesh and blood, and merge them into the Spirit Transformation Pool.
In this way, if there is a genius among the younger generations of each family in the future, they will be able to enter the God Transformation Pool to compete for the blood left by their ancestors, so as to make their own bloodline more pure and evolve again.
It can be said that this Divine Transformation Pool is a great opportunity left by the ancestors of all the bird and divine beast species in the universe.
But these are just superficial rules after all.
If any race loses an ancestor of the supreme level, its status will inevitably fall. Even if the younger generations step into it in the future, they will not be qualified to obtain the bloodline left by the ancestors, and will only become the evolutionary resources for others.
Especially in the last few thousand years, the Phoenix Clan has secretly occupied it. The Nine Revolutions into Sagehood, one of the thirty-six peerless magical powers practiced by the clan, uses this as nourishment and continues to evolve, giving birth to several Heavenly Supremes in succession!
The essence and blood of the sacred beasts of various races are available for him to take at will. Other races dare not refuse, nor are they qualified to refuse!
A Heavenly Supreme asked for it, would you dare to refuse? !
To be fair, one must be qualified to communicate on an equal footing. There is no spiritual beast race of the Heavenly Supreme in the clan, so what qualifications do they have to reject the "request" of a Heavenly Supreme? This happens every time the Divine Transformation Pool is born. Other clans can only pray that the genius of this Phoenix clan does not take a fancy to the awakened bloodline of the divine beast of their clan, otherwise, the hope of their clan will become the nourishment for others to make further progress.
This is the real reality, the survival of the fittest.
It just so happens that the Jiuyou Bird Clan has one chance to enter it, but the current Jiuyou Bird Clan, even if Jiuyou really takes that step in the future, will not be able to enter and get the opportunity of their ancestors, because if they really enter, they will only become food for the evolution of other races and will not gain anything.
Without a strong person to deter others within the tribe, those super divine beast tribes will not show any mercy to the Nine Nether Bird tribe.
……
Yao Yan used one of his thirty-six peerless magical powers to shrink the ground into an inch. The so-called space formation was useless. He crossed over in one step and entered the interior of the mountain. This was a world covered by dark blue flames. In the center lived a giant dark blue bird that was hundreds of thousands of feet long. The terrible pressure caused the surrounding space to distort and shatter, and then it was repaired, over and over again.
"The ancient phoenix? But its evolution is not complete..." Chaos energy was attached to Yao Yan's body, which engulfed all the dark blue flames that swept from all around. He was also looking at the condition of the ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird clan. The other party was completely lifeless at the moment, with a huge black spear piercing his back and all the strength in his body suppressed by it.
The opponent couldn't do anything about the black spear and could only preserve his last bit of life.
"A survivor of the ancient war?" Yao Yan thought to himself. He felt an extremely powerful evil force on the black spear. It was obvious that the strong man who controlled this spear was the Demon Emperor of the evil clan outside the domain, and this aura... the other party should be a Xuan-level Demon Emperor.
The ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan was quite powerful. He was able to fight against the Xuan-level Demon Emperor with his spiritual body and fight across levels. However, his ending was a bit miserable.
He joked in his heart, then stretched out his hand and grasped it in the air. Suddenly, a powerful force vibrated from the void, forcing the surrounding dark blue flames to avoid it. A big hand filled with chaotic energy grasped the spear that pierced the body of the Nine Nether Bird Ancestor.
"Buzz!"
Sensing that someone was holding him, the spirit in the spear awakened, and suddenly a fierce and violent aura burst out. The black-red light almost dyed the surrounding void into blood red. Endless killing intent swept towards Yao Yan, and countless disgusting and crazy whispers sounded in his ears. This power seemed to be able to pollute the soul and change the will of others. Yao Yan snorted lightly, and clenched his palms suddenly. The chaotic giant palm instantly shattered the power escaping from the spear, and at the same time suppressed the spirit of the spear, and even began to devour the opponent's power in reverse.
"Who are you and why can you devour my power!" A blood-red figure filled with murderous aura emerged from the spear and blocked the downward pressure of the Chaos Palm. With monstrous evil energy running rampant, his blood-red eyes stared at Yao Yan and questioned in a deep voice.
"I am the Emperor of Heaven. Which one of the evil tribes outside the domain are you?" Yao Yan stood in the void, looking at the demon shadow emerging from the spear, and asked in surprise. He did not expect that the residual soul of a Xuan-level Demon Emperor was hidden in the spear. This was great. He could refine the other party into the Demon-Slaying Order and exchange it for some Demon-Slaying Points.
“Emperor of Heaven?!” The demon figure trembled, and his voice became a little sharper, but the next moment, his voice turned cold: “You are not the Emperor of Heaven. The former Emperor of Heaven is dead, and was killed by an elder of my clan!”
"The ancient Heavenly Emperor is indeed dead, but that was tens of thousands of years ago. I am the new Heavenly Emperor~" Yao Yan explained softly.
"Have tens of thousands of years passed? This old thing is really troublesome. He has dragged me here for so long. Damn it!" Upon hearing this, the Demon Shadow said angrily, with extremely violent murderous intent spreading around his body, causing the void to continue to collapse.
"I am the leader of the Demonic War Clan, the Seven Killing Demon Emperor... Since you dare to set foot here, then stay forever. It just so happens that I urgently need blood food to restore my strength!"
As soon as the words fell, the giant dark blue bird that was pierced by the spear slowly opened its scarlet eyes. The dark blue flames surrounding its body became more vigorous at this moment, interweaving with the evil spirit, filled with a terrifying aura that captivated people.
"Has this emperor allowed you to move?" Yao Yan asked back, and at the same time, he stepped on the void, ripples flowed under his feet, and the next moment he appeared at the top of the spear. He stepped down, and a terrible force poured down, instantly pressing the spear to the ground and inserting the body of the ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan into the void again.
The faint chaotic light kept sliding down Yao Yan's feet, suppressing the spear and the giant blue bird under his feet, including the residual soul of the Seven Killing Demon Emperor.
The three of them did not have much strength in front of Yao Yan now. When they started fighting, they could not even be considered as warm-ups. If he had not promised Tian Huang to rescue the ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan, he would have been able to refine and devour them all in a flash.
“Aren’t you the Immortal Supreme?!” The Seven Killings Demon Emperor felt the suppression all over his body, his eyes changed, and he shouted in shock and anger. How could an ordinary Immortal Supreme suppress him easily? Even though he was just a remnant soul now, with the help of his body and the power of the spear, he believed that he could beat the Immortal Supreme, and even break the damn restraints under him and gain complete freedom.
"This emperor is the Supreme Immortal, and in the middle stage...it's just that you are too weak!" Yao Yan commented, and then his mind moved. Black soul chains filled with the emperor's flame emerged from the void, instantly piercing through the residual soul of the Seven Killing Demon Emperor and began to devour the power in the residual soul.
"Impossible! How dare you devour my power!!" The Seven Killings Demon Emperor looked at this scene in disbelief. The people of the Great Thousand Worlds could actually devour the power of the evil race from outside the domain. Aren't they afraid of being contaminated?
Only tens of thousands of years have passed, could it be that the universe has already developed a method to deal with the evil race from outside the domain? !
This scene made the Seven Killing Demon Emperor feel a chill.
In the past, when he fought with people from the Great Thousand World, the opponents could only use their spiritual power to resist the evil spirit's erosion, and they didn't even dare to be contaminated by it in the slightest. But now, someone actually dared to use the evil spirit for his own use. This scene really scared him. Even when facing the Great Thousand World's Saint Tian Zhizun, he had never been so panicked.
The pitch-black soul lock had a strange hue, and it was like a living thing. Under the lingering of the Emperor Flame, it continuously swallowed and spit out the residual soul of the Seven Killing Demon Emperor. The evil origin that it relied on for survival was now transformed into food for the growth of its chaotic body. The so-called dirty power also became invisible in that unique chaos.
"It tastes good~" Yao Yan felt his own origin become a little stronger. He licked his lips and revealed a weird and evil smile under the gaze of the Seven Killing Demon Emperor. That smile made him shudder and he felt the word fear for the first time.
This guy in front of me is abnormal. Really fucking abnormal!
"Who the hell are you?!" The Seven Killing Demon Emperor shouted angrily with a manic look in his eyes. He didn't believe that the other party was the Heavenly Emperor. This feeling was obviously that of being of the same race. Only when people of the same race devour each other will they have this feeling of fear.
This reminded the Seven Killings Demon Emperor of the past, when the evil tribes from outside the domain were wandering in endless time and space. During that time, they could not get resources to replenish themselves, so they fed on their own tribesmen and spent hundreds of thousands of years in difficulty. During that time, the strong became stronger, and the weak became food for the strong to survive... until they came to the world, and finally found a place to settle down!
"Who this emperor is, you will know it clearly in the future." Yao Yan whispered, and directly controlled the soul lock to tear apart the remaining soul of the Seven Killing Demon Emperor, swallowing up all the evil energy in it, leaving only a true spirit to wait for resurrection in the underworld.
After dealing with the Seven Killing Demon Emperors, with the help of the power of the evil origin within them, he easily took control of his former demon weapon, the God-killing Spear, a powerful weapon that reached the pinnacle of immortal-grade holy objects and was specifically designed to target souls.
"It's a pity that the evil smell is too strong, so it needs to be recast~" Yao Yan looked at it for a few times and put it away. Then he looked at the giant blue bird crawling on the ground, frowned slightly, with chaotic light flashing in his eyes. After looking at it for a few times, he smiled faintly.
"I saved you, why don't you come out and say thank you?"
The ancestor of the Nine Nether Bird Clan was not dead. He sealed the Seven Killing Demon Emperor with his own body, sealed him here, and used his own immortal fire to destroy his soul. Unfortunately, he overestimated himself and underestimated the difficulty of the Xuan-level Demon Emperor.
"Haha, I really need to thank you, young friend!" Along with an old man's laugh, an old man in a dark blue robe emerged from the top of the giant bird below. His figure was a little blurry, and it was obvious that his condition was extremely poor. If his body was not an ancient phoenix with a hint of immortality, he would have fallen long ago.
"I'm Lu You from the Nine Nether Bird Clan. Thank you for saving my life!" He bowed solemnly to Yao Yan and said in a deep voice. At the same time, he continued to maintain a safe distance and did not dare to get too close to Yao Yan.
Because Yao Yan gave him a very strange feeling, the other party could actually use the power of the evil tribe from outside the domain for his own use!
If this had nothing to do with the evil race from outside the domain, he could eat shit!
How could the younger generation be able to handle something that the Immortal Emperor hadn't been able to handle? Moreover, Yao Yan gave him a strange feeling, and he didn't seem like a decent person! (End of this chapter)
