The only thing that was left was a completely charred corpse, and the only thing that was recognizable was a clawed and charred hand which stretched towards the sky with all five fingers contorted in agony.
The Divine Phoenix Army commanders, Qi Zhencang and Duan Qinghai, had become completely petrified. Even more so, when they looked at that charred corpse, their eyes were filled with boundless shock and horror.
The air was incomparably hot, and within his body, there flowed the Phoenix bloodline which glowed even hotter, yet Feng Feiheng clearly felt a piercing cold aura start up his spine and spread to the rest of his body…
Feng Feiying was ranked forty-third amongst all the elders in the Divine Phoenix Sect! Furthermore, he was a level five Overlord who could lord it over most of the world! Feng Feiying’s profound strength was only lower than his by two levels… yet he had only come into the briefest contact with those scarlet flames… and as a result, he had been burned into ashes in the space of a few breaths! He did not even have the opportunity to struggle or resist.
He was very sure that those scarlet flames were not phoenix flames because they did not have a trace of the aura given out by phoenix flames. But the power and the aura of these flames were sufficient to cause him, who possessed the strongest flames in the world—the Phoenix flames, to feel utter dread. He raised his head to look at the sky and roared in a trembling voice, “Who is it?! Who is it?!”
The flames in the sky had disappeared, and the red light and scorching heat that had obscured the sky had disappeared along with it. But the light was clearly much dimmer than it had been before, as if a storm of dark clouds had replaced the fire which blanketed the sky. At the same time, an extremely heavy and gloomy pressure soundlessly engulfed the entire area. And under this pressure, the raging battlefield immediately became desolate. Not a single person could utter a sound, nor could a single person even breath; even the blood flowing along the ground seemed to stop in its tracks, as if it had been completely and utterly frozen.
In addition, this pressure was not only heavy, it also contained a boundless rage… The rage was so violent that it seemed that it would burst open and explode at any moment.
Everyone unconsciously raised their heads to peer into the distant sky… where a figure stood wreathed in flames. The flames were so thick that they were unable to make anything out of it, resulting in them only being able to see an indistinct silhouette. The aura of rage that hung in the air was too fierce and terrifying, so it caused all who were present to be unable to differentiate whether what was burning on that person’s body was profound flames or flames of pure rage.
Furthermore, not far behind him stood another three figures, but all eyes were on the burning man, so no one took notice of them.
“Who… who is… who is that…” Looking at the burning figure in the skies above, Dongfang Xiu’s pupils dilated, and he could not suppress the shock and fear in his voice. Even though that person had used a strong and unfathomable power to extinguish the flames that were falling on Blue Wind Imperial City and had easily destroyed an invincible elder of the Divine Phoenix Sect, he did not seem to be an enemy… but that person’s aura of power and rage was simply far too terrifying… As the Palace Chief of Blue Wind, he had never experienced this degree of dread in his life before… No! He had not even experienced one-tenth of the fear he was experiencing right now.
He had no doubts whatsoever that with such terrifying power, destroying the entire Blue Wind Imperial City… would be as easy and quick as flipping a hand.
Who was this person… and when did such a person exist in the Profound Sky Continent… and why would this person help Blue Wind…
“Uwah… It’s really… really scary…” Number Seven Under Heaven covered half of her eyes while relentlessly burrowing into Xiao Yun’s chest.
“This is indeed horrifying to the point where it cannot be described with mere words.” Number One Under Heaven observed the battlefield where rivers of blood ran and bodies were strewn everywhere. If even his heart palpitated at such a sight, then it was natural that Number Seven would do so as well. They had accompanied Yun Che and used the Primordial Profound Ark to transverse space from New Moon City, and they instantly arrived in this place… He had expected to arrive in the field of battle, but he did not expect to see such a horrific and miserable sight.
“No, it’s not that…” Number Seven Under Heaven said as her body curled up, “I am talking ab… I am talking about Big Brother Yun! He seems to be really scary right now…”
“Big Brother…” Xiao Yun cautiously made his way forward, but he was immediately held back by Number One Under Heaven. “Do not approach him!”
Beneath the Golden Crow flames, Yun Che’s body began to steadily tremble …
