Chapter 515 - 435: A Brand New Venerable?

Chapter 515: Chapter 435: A Brand New Venerable?

...

The sky was a blanket of gloom.

On the ground, volcanoes erupted ceaselessly, and molten lava flowed wantonly.

At this moment, the prodigies of the Demon Race, led by the Golden Ape Demon, were scouring the mountains, determined to capture the Red-Brown Horse.

Looking down from high above, one could see what looked like a swarm of black ants moving across the land.

They were currently linking together to form one demonic array after another. Runes flickered all over the mountains and plains, emitting a blinding brilliance.

From atop these arrays, powerful auras swirled, sweeping across one volcano after another.

Even though the southern part of the ruins was vast, at the rate they were going, they would sooner or later find a trace of the Red-Brown Horse.

Moreover, thanks to the demonic arrays, their auras had merged into a single, unified whole.

Attacking any single part would undoubtedly alert the entire collective. It was a case of one slight move affecting the whole body.

"This is a bit tricky." Yu Zither Immortal frowned, her gaze turning to Fang Yang.

There were just too many of them. She wasn’t confident she could annihilate all these Demon Race prodigies in an instant.

And if she didn’t handle it cleanly and word got out, it might cause unforeseen complications.

"..." Fang Yang said nothing, merely giving a slight nod.

He made a grasping motion in the air, and a Golden Feather Fan appeared in his hand.

The aura of this Golden Feather Fan was extremely restrained, yet it was as if a Golden Crow had spread its sword-like feathers, its divine light coalescing.

The Golden Crow Saint Fan!

Without a doubt, even among the Golden Crow lineage, it was an extraordinary Sacred Artifact.

However, within the Vermilion Bird’s ruins, its power was greatly restricted.

But compared to other Sacred Artifacts like the Golden Crow Divine Sword, its effectiveness in area-of-effect attacks was far more prominent.

At that moment, Fang Yang’s gaze turned icy. The fan in his hand shone with dazzling brilliance, like a burning sun.

He waved it abruptly. Like a volcanic eruption, golden divine light shot into the sky as a monstrous fire gathered into a colossal wave, washing down upon the land like a torrential rain of fire.

This move, a combination of Divine Techniques and Magic, not only contained the Daoist arts of the Golden Crow lineage but also incorporated the essence of the "Rain Dao Nine Heavens."

The immense power from this combination immediately caused the void to tremble slightly.

In the span of a breath, numerous dark cracks appeared and spread, and the entire world seemed to groan under the strain.

In an instant, the expressions of the Demon Race prodigies changed drastically, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

But no matter how terrified they were, they had no time to react!

Only a Young Great Saint can deal with another Young Great Saint.

By the same token, only a Young Venerable can deal with another Young Venerable.

"How is this possible? Did Emperor Wushuang get free?!"

At this moment, the Golden Ape Demon’s face was filled with terror as a final thought flashed through its mind.

In the blink of an eye, as the only Young Great Saint present,

he too was directly obliterated by this Daoist art and Divine Technique.

WHOOSH...

The brilliant meteor shower of fire continued to fall densely.

The Demon Race prodigies fell like weeds, swiftly perishing and turning to ash, leaving not even a blade of grass behind.

Even though Yu Zither Immortal had witnessed such a scene before,

seeing it again now, she still found it hard to calm her heart.

’It’s just too much.’ This scene was like a terrifying painting of heavenly fire exterminating demons, purging all demonic presence from the world.

This development quickly alerted the Demon Saints outside the ruins that something was amiss.

Their destiny had changed once again; Emperor Wushuang had actually found a chance to turn his misfortune into fortune!

As for the Changkong Heavenly Bow, it was extremely satisfied with this situation.

...

"Let’s go."

Fang Yang put away the Golden Crow Feather Fan, and with each step, a lotus bloomed.

Following the connection he felt through the Vermilion Bird Feather, he soon found the volcano where the Red-Brown Horse was hiding.

The volcano was pitch-black. At the entrance to its cave, crimson rays of light intertwined to form a killing array, its power imposing.

Inside the volcano, however, it was bright. A fiery red pool of blood bubbled with intense heat.

On the surface, the fiery red blood pool was calm and placid, showing no signs of life.

But in reality, a creature lay dormant in the depths of the pool.

Its eyes were shut tight, and it was as still as deadwood, not daring to move for fear of revealing the slightest trace of its aura.

The Red-Brown Horse!

The Red-Brown Horse had a coat of crimson fur, red as blood, and looked magnificent and imposing.

Just by looking at it, one could sense its incredible swiftness.

"This Red-Brown Horse is quite intelligent. It actually knew to lie dormant instead of rushing to complete its bloodline transformation," Yu Zither Immortal praised lightly.

’Intelligent, is it...?’ Fang Yang flicked his sleeve, and the aura of the Vermilion Bird Feather flowed out.

In an instant, the eyelids of the Red-Brown Horse, submerged deep in the fiery red blood pool, twitched.

It began to awaken. Crimson flames flickered, causing the blood pool to roil and a Fierce Flame to burn intensely.

This blood pool contained a peculiar true fire and, more importantly, a portion of the True Blood of the Vermilion Bird.

If Fang Yang wasn’t mistaken, this pool was meant for the Fierce Beasts and Desolate Beasts of the Vermilion Bird lineage to activate their bloodlines.

Although other Fire Dao Creatures could also use it to enhance their bloodlines, the effect would be greatly diminished.

But regardless, having something to use was better than nothing.

"Red-Brown Horse, stay in the water. Begin your bloodline transformation first," Fang Yang said indifferently, his hands clasped behind his back.

His words seemed to possess Magic Power, instantly calming the Red-Brown Horse, which stopped trying to leave the blood pool in a hurry.

CRACKLE... SIZZLE...

Soon, the sound of flesh and blood transforming came from beneath the surface of the pool.

Fang Yang could clearly see the Red-Brown Horse’s skin peeling off continuously as it was scorched; it was practically being cooked alive.

Strangely, whenever the Red-Brown Horse was about to pass out, a peculiar cyan flame would emerge from its body and repair its injuries.

This flame prevented its body from being burned to pieces. Instead, it drew in the fiery light to temper its flesh, allowing it to make progress.

"The Cyan Lotus Earth Core Flame? It seems this was one of Emperor Wushuang’s backup plans," Fang Yang mused thoughtfully.
