Boom!
The stellar torrent, its momentum undiminished, surged towards the thousand-zhang tall Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix!
The Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix opened its beak, spitting out a crimson banner. Upon it, threads of fire-attribute divine light converged, forming a phoenix of raging flames. Its wings ceaselessly burned, flickering with runes, and it suddenly opened its beak to let out a clarion cry.
The stellar torrent met the crimson fire-attribute divine light, and the two rapidly canceled each other out. . . finally dissipating into wisps of green smoke.
However, Elder Luan and the other two demons had vanished without a trace.
The Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix almost spat blood!
Since the Realm Descent, when had the Heavenly Phoenix clan ever suffered such a loss?
It let out a shriek, its body engulfed in surging fire-attribute divine light, like a blazing inferno descending from the heavens, as it lunged at the Starry Sky Dharma Body!
Fang Xi manipulated the Starry Sky Dharma Body to form hand seals, and another 'Divine Light of Myriad Heavens, Ten Earths, Sun, Moon, and Five Stars' instantly shot out. . .
...
Fire-attribute divine light and stellar profound light clashed, causing the entire Myriad Islands Lake to tremble violently.
Rumble!
After another fierce exchange, the Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix was sent flying ten thousand zhang. Gazing at the Starry Sky Dharma Body, which now showed cracks across its surface, a five-colored light flashed in its phoenix eyes, as if it had directly seen Fang Xi hiding within!
"Pfft!"
Fang Xi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his aura weak: "A Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix, truly formidable to this extent. . ."
But this Heavenly Phoenix no longer believed him in the slightest.
Who knew how long ago, the opponent had been in this very state, yet no matter how they fought, they still maintained this grotesque appearance! It had fallen for the opponent's trickery!
It scanned its surroundings, and suddenly its heart jolted: 'Two Soul Transformation combatants attacking with full power, why isn't this Myriad Islands Lake destroyed yet? '
The aftershocks of such a Soul Transformation level battle should have been enough to overturn a thousand miles and scorch ten thousand miles of land!
The Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix flapped its wings, sending out streaks of fire-attribute divine light mixed with silver radiance into the surrounding void.
Splash!
Layers of black mist emerged, seemingly containing a grid of countless vines, completely blocking the fire-attribute divine light!
It was the 'Inverse Nine Nether Profound Wood Grand Array'!
During Fang Xi's struggle with the various demon races, 'Taiyi Scripture' had been secretly making repairs with the Yellow Turban Strongmen and nanobots, and the array had nearly recovered!
"Despicable!"
The Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix cursed in fury. With two five-stage arrays stacked, it might genuinely perish here!
"Hahaha. . . as the saying goes, 'all's fair in war'!"
Fang Xi burst into laughter, straightening his back at that moment, his aura surging upwards. His Wood Spirit Body frantically absorbed the surrounding wood spiritual energy, replenishing his magic power.
"Nine Nether Profound Wood, rise!"
He pointed a finger, and streaks of black mist pressed down from the sky.
At the same time, the 'Great Zhou Heavenly Star Array' rumbled, and chains of starlight descended, piercing the wings of the thousand-zhang Heavenly Phoenix, temporarily binding it in place!
Behind Fang Xi, a ferocious cannon barrel emerged.
Taiyi's cold voice rang out: "Target trajectory locked. Chaos-Hole Star Annihilation Cannon. . . firing!"
Boom!
A chaos-colored divine light pierced directly through the thousand-zhang Heavenly Phoenix's body, even breaking through the Inverse Nine Nether Profound Wood Grand Array and vanishing into the horizon!
Within the array, five-colored feathers fell, mixed with crimson, glazed-glass-like essence blood that seemed to still burn with internal flames!
—Five-stage Heavenly Phoenix Blood!
On the ground, countless Demonic Tree vines emerged, collecting all of these materials.
Not far away, a flash of crimson light, and the thousand-zhang fire phoenix vanished, replaced by an old man in human form.
On his chest, there was still a hideous wound!
"Perhaps. . . today, I can slay a Soul Transformation cultivator as a Nascent Soul?"
Seeing this scene, Fang Xi's eyes slightly brightened. The Starry Sky Dharma Body gathered countless starlight, ready to strike again.
"Explode!"
The Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix looked at the reappearing black mist, a trace of reluctance flashing across its face, and forcefully threw out the crimson banner in its hand.
Rumble!
A terrifying inferno erupted within the Inverse Nine Nether Profound Wood Grand Array!
From a high-altitude perspective, one would see the colossal, ink-black egg-shaped structure, riddled with holes by the burning flames.
This Soul Transformation demon cultivator, to escape with its life, had actually directly detonated its own five-stage 'Numinous Treasure'!
Whoosh!
The instant the Inverse Nine Nether Profound Wood Grand Array was breached, a flash of fire escaped from within, vanishing into the horizon with unbelievable speed. . .
...
Fang Xi watched the direction the Soul Transformation Heavenly Phoenix had left, but did not pursue.
The Great Zhou Heavenly Star Array possessed Soul Transformation power, but using it for pursuit would truly be quite comical.
"What's more. . ."
He spat out a mouthful of essence blood, his aura beginning to weaken, and the Starry Sky Dharma Body instantly dissipated. . .
A moment later.
Fang Xi muttered: "It seems. . . there were no ambushes?"
He formed hand seals, casting the 'Undying Wood Spirit Body'. A continuous surge of vitality emerged from within his body, and his previous injuries instantly healed!
The reason he had deliberately shown weakness was to feign injury and see if there were any hidden enemies.
Now, it seemed his performance had been for naught.
"Forget it. . . being able to slaughter the demon army until only one five-stage Heavenly Phoenix remained is already a success."
Given the Heavenly Phoenix's proficiency in void-related techniques, it would have been almost impossible to kill it unless it was trapped in a desperate situation within a double array.
Fang Xi swept his sleeve, transforming into a streak of green light, and returned to Emerald Cliff.
"Alliance Leader!"
Above Emerald Cliff, Tian Du Mojun transformed into a black light and landed before Fang Xi.
He looked at the unharmed Fang Xi and the faint fluctuations that had previously emanated, already having some guesses in his heart, yet still finding it hard to believe. He asked, "That Soul Transformation demon cultivator!"
"I've driven it away. . ."
Fang Xi replied dismissively, ignoring the remaining Nascent Soul old monsters who exchanged glances, and returned to Emerald Cliff.
"Young Master is back!"
Little Qing was the first to run over, throwing herself into Fang Xi's embrace: "I knew it, Young Master would definitely defeat that old guy. . ."
"Haha."
Fang Xi laughed heartily, setting Little Qing down, his gaze sweeping over the faces of Zhong Hong Yu, Liu Xu, and the other women: "The beast tide has receded, all is well!"
Seeing this, Zhong Hong Yu and the other cultivators finally let out a sigh of relief.
...
Night fell.
The shock of the Righteous and Demonic Alliance Leader and Dragon Fish Island Master sweeping away the beast tide and battling the Soul Transformation demon cultivator still reverberated within the Myriad Islands Lake.
Fang Xi, however, came beneath the Demonic Tree, beginning his secluded cultivation to inspect his gains.
At this time, the area around the Demonic Tree was still designated by him as forbidden ground.
Of course, with so many lessons learned previously, even Nascent Soul old monsters only wanted to stay far away from this demonic tree—after all, no one wanted to be hung up and air-dried!
Fang Xi reached out and caressed the tree trunk, silently feeling it for a moment.
"Although the grand array was breached, causing a slight loss of vitality. . . the stored pure blood essence is simply massive!"
"In addition, there are a large number of third-stage and above wood puppets and transformed demon cultivators. . ."
"Once the Demonic Tree devours all these demon races, who knows to what extent it will grow?"
Fang Xi extended his hand, rummaging through his storage ring.
One after another, jade bottles filled with four-stage great demon essence blood appeared.
"And that four-stage mid-grade flood dragon essence blood. . . comparatively, Big Green is just a waste. . . what a pity, I couldn't get it before the battle."
Fang Xi sighed, looking at the last jade box.
Within the jade box, astonishingly, were pieces of five-stage Heavenly Phoenix blood, like crimson glazed glass!
Inside those red, amber-like blood drops, there seemed to be wisps of tiny flames still burning. . .
The five-stage Heavenly Phoenix was severely wounded, and naturally, many feathers and drops of essence blood fell, all collected by Fang Xi.
"Five-stage Heavenly Phoenix feathers are excellent fire-attribute artifact refining materials. . ."
"As for the essence blood, it can be perfectly used to cultivate the 'Myriad Demon Armor' secret art!"
Currently, the Myriad Demon Arts were only at the 'Lesser Four Spirit Armor' stage, yet they could block a sneak attack from a Soul Transformation demon cultivator, a power which left Fang Xi very satisfied.
If he were to truly collect the essence blood of four five-stage demon race kings and refine them into the 'Four Sacred Beast Armor', what kind of power would that possess?
A flash of green light.
The 'Green Reaping Sword' appeared in Fang Xi's hand. On the sword's body, there was still a patch of bloodstain.
"What that vulture demon used before its death must have been some kind of innate divine ability. . ."
Green light flickered in Fang Xi's eyes as he saw countless dense, crimson runes within the bloodstain, like chains.
"Hmph! It only took advantage while the Green Reaping Sword was unpowered. . . otherwise, even if its divine sense was blocked, the intelligent AI inside could still have instantly killed it. . ."
He sighed, and a stream of pure green infant fire sprayed forth.
The deep green flames scorched the Green Reaping Sword, and the patch of bloodstain rapidly turned into wisps of black smoke, constantly being refined away. . .
"This time, by slaying so many demon races, the power of the Green Reaping Sword and the Soul Suppressing Pagoda have also greatly increased. . . truly, I've won big."
Fang Xi's expression was solemn.
The more he won big, the more it proved how miserably the Heavenly Phoenix clan had lost!
Therefore, he had already rebuilt the 'Inverse Nine Nether Profound Wood Grand Array', and even the Starry Sky Pagoda had not been withdrawn.
He would not remove the arrays until the Realm Descent was completely over.
"Now that I possess Soul Transformation combat power, there aren't many threats left in the Human World. . ."
"Next, naturally, is to cultivate my Nascent Soul late-stage magic power to perfection, and then attempt to break through to the Soul Transformation realm!"
Fang Xi sat cross-legged, his expression grave.
The Soul Transformation chasm!
Cultivators in the Human World, it seemed, only a very few could ever touch this barrier.
And resources that could aid in Soul Transformation breakthroughs were almost non-existent.
"To break through the Soul Transformation chasm, one must first face the interference of the great heavenly environment and the decline of spiritual energy. . . For me, who has cultivated the 'Three-Phase Annihilation Art', I can directly ignore this. . ."
"In terms of physique, I cultivate the 'Lesser Four Spirit Armor', and further refine 'five-stage Heavenly Phoenix' essence blood, which should be sufficient."
"In terms of magic power, the 'Withered Glory Chant' cultivated to the nineteenth layer of perfection will at least not drag me down. . ."
"My divine consciousness has always far surpassed those of the same stage, so that's not a big problem either. . ."
"Then there are the tribulations of Inner Demon, Five Elements, and Heavenly Lightning!"
The 'Lesser Four Spirit Armor' was remarkably effective at dealing with various external tribulations. Fang Xi also didn't believe that with his magic treasures and divine abilities, he couldn't handle the Five Elements Tribulation and the Lightning Tribulation!
"So, only the Inner Demon Tribulation remains?"
He pondered for a moment, then made a decision: "For the next period, I will diligently cultivate the 'Seven Emotions Sundering Song'. . ."
