Chapter 2956 Forcible Clash
"…"
The numerous people on the battlefield were shocked at the scene of a white-robed young man beheading an Ancestor, and even though they were all looking at the old man, they didn"t see it coming!
Even Davis narrowed his eyes, only catching a silhouette of this newcomer waving his sword with ease when he abruptly appeared beside him. It was as though he was one with heaven and earth, having authority over the movements of his aura, allowing him to conceal himself even amidst the many Immortals.
He knew if he wasn"t looking at the Light Dragon Clan"s Ancestor, he wouldn"t have been able to see it coming.
"So what if I did? Are you going to stop me?"
Venerable Warrior Zermatt still had an indifferent expression. His voice still radiated the utmost coldness one could expect from an Immortal Emperor who lords over many beings. However, to have that same tone in front of another Immortal Emperor, they wondered how huge his guts were as they could sense that he merely had a Level One Immortal Emperor Stage cultivation base.
In their eyes, even the legendary a.s.sa.s.sin, Deathseeker, was capable of this feat as long as he stayed himself hidden. Moreover, was the Light Dragon Clan"s Ancestor still alive, making this newcomer seem worse instead?
"Well, not until you decided to sneakily cut my head." The old man grinned.
His head flew and stuck itself to the neck, veins reappearing and skin reforming as they attached the body and the head back.
Many didn"t even bat an eye to this strange scene as immortals were well capable of healing themselves back as long as their lives weren"t snuffed out or their immortal vessels destroyed. With a healing pill of equal grade, they could easily heal themselves without any problem but what of a Light Dragon?
Its self-healing prowess was off the charts!
"Oh? Is the Dragon Alliance trying to go against the heavens? You do understand that disobeying me leads to acquiring karmic sin, right?"
Venerable Warrior Zermatt"s eyes widened, causing the Light Dragon Clan"s Ancestor to smile darkly.
"Again. Don"t sneakily try to bring the Dragon Alliance into this. If you can"t provide an explanation as to why you cut off my head, then don"t bother making threats. The heavens may have given you powers, but they"re only effective against the Divergents. Not us Dragons."
"That"s fine. I don"t need the blessings of the heavens to cut off a dragon"s head."
Venerable Warrior Zermatt drew his sword again, pointing at the old man, "I"ll just behead you again."
*Bang!~*
The two of them instantly clashed as their silhouettes disappeared, causing the other Ancestors to be pushed back while they soared into the skies, releasing resplendent light energy that shook the heavens and caused the clouds to thunder.
*BOOOM!~*
The s.p.a.ce collapsed on top of them, causing the Ancestors to retreat a bit to the distance, inevitably causing them to be unable to attack the barrier while the barrier held back great against the collapsing cracks of s.p.a.ce.
Davis took his gaze off their crazy fight and glared at Patriarch Killian Zenflame.
"Aren"t you glad that we can fight to the death without interruptions now?"
He took a step forward, slowly heading towards them.
"Aha! Fool! Now that Venerable Warrior Zermatt is here, there"s no escape for you, and if you dare come near me, I"ll seal you inside. Let"s see how you tackle this-"
*Rippp!~*
A wave of pale jade-crimson shot towards the Fire Phoenix Clan"s Patriarch, causing him to feel a sudden sense of danger as he raised the scarlet orb in front of him.
*Bang!~*
The resulting clash sent the scarlet orb and Killian Zenflame flying back, causing the other Ancestor beside him to roar.
"Patriarch!"
"Don"t worry about me. Go kill him!" Patriarch Killian Zenflame yelled out as he tried to regain balance.
However, he was drastically taken aback by how powerful Davis was.
The prowess of his heavenly wind blade practically surpa.s.sed Level Three Immortal Emperor Stage and stepped into Level Four Immortal Emperor Stage, causing him to shudder.
"No! I must kill or seal him today! Otherwise, if he escaped, neither my life nor the Fire Phoenix Clan would be safe!"
He trembled as his eyes turned determined, raising his head as he caught the scarlet orb in his grasp properly. His soul force was already attached to it, causing him to be protected by its defensive prowess.
With him ready to seal the Emperor of Death, he glanced at the Ancestor, who accepted his command.
*Hssss!~*
The Fire Phoenix Clan"s Ancestor looked at the Emperor of Death with these crimson eyes as he sucked in a breath of hot air, causing the temperature around him to suddenly spike. He seemed to be channeling his energy through a particular set of his fey meridian as he extended his wings while clasping his hands, causing wisps of flames to light up on his entire body.
The flames further expanded to take on a brilliant scarlet hue reminiscent of the majestic plumage of a phoenix. As the flames intensified, they formed the shape of a mighty phoenix behind him, with blazing wings that stretched across the heavens.
Watching this scene, Davis eyed the weather drastically changing in the skies.
"A Divine Technique…"
However, his lips curled as he also came to a stop and sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Inferno Celestial Phoenix Blaze~"
*Vhizzzz!~*
Once the fiery avian manifestation took form, the Ancestor of the Fire Phoenix Clan declared in a tone full of pride as his Divine Technique unleashed a barrage of devastating attacks.
With each flap of its wings, tempestuous gusts of scorching wind were generated, tearing through the atmosphere and incinerating everything in their path as they headed toward the Emperor of Death. The heat radiating from the phoenix"s body was so intense that it distorted the air, creating a s.h.i.+mmering mirage-like effect around it.
*Bang!~* *Bang!~* *Bang!~*
The Inferno Celestial Phoenix Blaze left a trail of destruction in its wake. Its attacks are infused with the highest possible nirvanic energy, capable of reducing the st.u.r.diest of souls to smoldering wisps within moments. Even the buildings underneath weren"t" safe from its wrath. The flames engulfed their targets, seeping into every crevice and leaving no refuge from their relentless advance.
"…"
The Starlight Jade Wolf King watched this scene with wide eyes along with his people.
Witnessing this technique in action was awe-inspiring and terrifying. The sky became a blazing inferno as if the heavens themselves were ablaze. The air crackled with intense heat, and the ground beneath was practically boiling, radiating waves of scorching energy above.
It was a sight that struck fear into the hearts of even the most battle-hardened warriors, but the Starlight Jade Wolf King couldn"t help but look solemn as his brother was engulfed in this sea of scarlet flames.
Not even he would come back alive even if he were to break into the Immortal Emperor Beast Stage. After all, this technique had surpa.s.sed the likes of the Level Five Immortal Emperor Stage, barely crossing into the Level Six Immortal Emperor Stage!
This was pure overkill for a Level Six Immortal King Stage Cultivator, yet when it came to the Anarchic Divergent known as the Emperor of Death, it seemed like such overbearingness was required that the Ancestor didn"t even hesitate to use his blood essence.
*Pui!~*
The Fire Phoenix Clan"s Ancestor spat out a mouthful of blood as it seemed the backlash of using his blood essence came back to him.
He was probably millions, if not hundreds and thousands of years old, having used up much of his vitality through defending his clan, so the more blood essence he used up, the more his life was nearing death.
However, this Ancestor didn"t seem to be worried and, instead, even wiped the blood on his lips with a faint victorious smile full of pride.
"…!"
But quickly, he gasped and readied himself as he saw a figure still burning within the sea of scarlet flames he conjured.
"Impossible! That attack momentarily stepped into the Level Six Immortal Emperor Stage…!"
Patriarch Killian Zenflame bellowed out with outrage, unable to believe that the Emperor of Death was still standing, but as he saw a sea of flames fade, he sensed the undulations coming off from a pitch-black silhouette, causing his lips to quiver.
"Level Seven Immortal King Stage…?"
The Emperor of Death"s cultivation base was actually at the Late Immortal King Stage.
On top of that, looking at the skies that were thundering ever so lightly, he glanced back at the Emperor of Death"s pitch-black silhouette and recognized something out of this world.
"Deathward Seacloak Dominion."
Davis wore a cloak of death at this moment, seemingly not even bothering to defend himself against the other party"s attack as he remained relaxed.
"…"
It caused the entire crowd to reel in disbelief, and just when they thought that they had seen enough, their expressions shook as they saw the Emperor of Death remove the cloak and throw it away, causing it to disperse into the wind.
"Ugh?"
Yet, when it reappeared, it was somehow wrapped around the Fire Phoenix Clan"s Ancestor, slowly absorbing him into that fabric of abyss as his body began to seep into it, revealing deep terror in his eyes as he tried to escape, forcibly trying to yank his soul out but found everything within was sealed!
