Glancing at the Roc Demon King who was preparing to escape, Mu Qingxiao did not stop him. Instead, he stood with his hands behind his back, a strange smile on his lips.
As expected of the Roc Demon King, with a flap of his wings, his figure shot out, flying towards the other side of the sky.
"Boom!"
However, as soon as he traveled a thousand meters, he slammed into an invisible barrier. Dense cracks appeared in the sky from the collision, like a spiderweb.
Staggering to stabilize his body, the Roc Demon King felt a splitting headache. Turning around, he glanced at the black flames covering the horizon and bared his teeth at Mu Qingxiao.
No wonder this bastard was as steady as Mount Tai. He had already set up a barrier when he was not paying attention.
"Cunning human, I'll destroy you!"
Furious, the Roc Demon King held the trident in his hand. Golden light flowed on it, and the trident was raised. In the blink of an eye, it became a thousand meters long, and then fiercely swung down at the peak of Mount Hua where Mu Qingxiao was.
Boom! Boom! Rumble!
The thousand meter long trident swung down, bringing with it a deafening rumble. Everywhere it passed, the space was distorted.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxiao put the soul sword back into his mind, and the black lotus of destruction met the trident. With a terrifying rumble, the two collided again.
Bang!
Terrifying energy swept out, uprooting all the trees around the mountain peak. Fortunately, he had set up a barrier in advance, so other than the mountain peak, the rest of the area did not suffer from the aftermath of the battle.
His attack was blocked again, and the Roc Demon King panted heavily.
They were clearly both golden immortals, but why was the difference so great? The latter had many treasures, and his sword was frighteningly sharp, while the black lotus in front of him could not even break through his full power attack …
Just as the Roc Demon King was deep in thought, on the mountain peak, black flames spread out from Mu Qingxiao's body.
Suddenly, the black flames exploded in the wind. Following a resonant phoenix cry, three hundred zhang wide black wings stretched out from the black flames that filled the sky. Indifferent golden eyes pierced through the black flames, staring at the Roc Demon King in the air.
In an instant, the Roc Demon King's body stiffened. His eyes stared at the colossal creature in the black flames. His entire body was covered in a layer of cold sweat. He was instantly horrified.
"Phoenix … Phoenix Clan!"
Seeing the massive body hidden in the black flames, the Roc Demon King instinctively felt a terrifying pressure. This pressure came from the depths of his soul.
Immediately, he felt a chill in his heart.
When the primordial chaos was divided, the heavens opened from the child, the earth split from the ugliness, and man was born from the yin. When the heavens and earth met again, all living things were born. All living things had beasts and birds. The beasts had the Qilin as their long limbs, and the birds had the Phoenix as their long limbs.
Although the Roc Demon King was aware of the existence of the Phoenix, he had never truly seen it with his own eyes. Although there was a trace of the bloodline of the Golden-winged Roc in his body, it could not be compared to the Phoenix. That kind of existence was not something a Golden Immortal like him could afford to offend.
"Bang!"
Just as he was lost in thought, a pillar of black flames shot out from the void.
Bang!
Just as he came back to his senses, the Roc Demon King's pupils violently contracted. He only saw that the pillar of black flames had already reached his chest, already unable to dodge.
In this crisis, the Roc Demon King's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast, blocking his chest with the trident.
The trident was originally retrieved by his seventh brother Sun Wukong from the East Sea Dragon Palace. The latter already had the Jingu Bang, so this trident was naturally gifted to him.
"Bang!"
The pillar of black flames struck the trident. The Roc Demon King felt the terrifying power transmitted from it. His entire body shook, and his body flew out uncontrollably.
He originally thought that he had already blocked this attack, but the black flames did not dissipate. Instead, they climbed up the trident, and in the end spread to his arms.
Suddenly, a scorching heat engulfed his entire body. A mournful scream came from the Roc Demon King's mouth.
The black flames spread up at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the Roc Demon King's body was covered in black flames. The terrifying temperature made him scream again and again. His body constantly rolled in the void, attempting to extinguish the black flames.
However, no matter how he beat, the black flames on his body would not be extinguished. Instead, they burned more and more vigorously. What made him even more alarmed was that the black flames seemed to be devouring the immortal power in his body.
In the blink of an eye, the golden light on the Roc Demon King's body dimmed. His body was corroded and burned by the black flames, revealing pieces of dazzling golden bones.
As the power in his body was devoured, the Roc Demon King used up the last of his strength. Finally, he could not withstand the burning of the black flames. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and despair. In the end, he collapsed in the void on his last breath.
Mu Qingxiao flapped her wings. Endless black flames spread over, covering the sky and covering the earth. In an instant, the Roc Demon King was submerged.
Under the devouring of the black flames, the golden body began to melt. Several dozen seconds later, the black flames retracted, and the three hundred zhang body turned into human form.
Landing on the mountain peak, Mu Qingxiao could not help but sink into contemplation. This Roc Demon King was indeed somewhat capable. He was a fifth stage golden immortal. If he had to blame someone, he could only blame himself for making the wrong decision.
Otherwise, he would not have died here.
However, this demon bird that called itself the Great Sage of Chaotic Heavens had almost never appeared in the original plot. Yet now, it actually ran over to scheme against Yang Chan. Who knew what it was planning.
After guessing for a while, Mu Qingxiao had no clue. She could only temporarily put this matter to the back of her mind.
At this moment, the sky was already calm. Glancing at the mountain peak, Liu Yanchang had already died in the aftermath of the battle between the two. This saved Mu Qingxiao the trouble of understanding him.
Withdrawing her gaze, Mu Qingxiao quickly formed a series of seals with her hands.
Due to the barrier she had set up beforehand, the aftermath of the battle did not affect the outside at all. After removing the barrier, Mu Qingxiao immediately withdrew her aura. Following the original path, she walked towards the mountainside of Mount Hua.
Returning to the back of the mountain, Mu Qingxiao went to the lakeside pavilion to rest, admiring the surrounding scenery.
With the eyesore Liu Yanchang gone, Mu Qingxiao was in a good mood. Even the scenery she had seen countless times looked exceptionally beautiful.
As time passed, the Golden Crow set in the west. Multicolored light filled the sky. The Third Holy Mother and Zhao Xia, who had left, finally returned.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxiao smiled slightly.
It seemed that the secular people who came to draw lots in the temple had already left. Although Mount Hua was not as prosperous as Chang 'an, because of Yang Chan's reputation of granting all requests, some people came from afar to the Xiyue Temple to draw lots.
"Mu Qingxiao, where is Liu Yanchang?"
Coming to the pavilion, Yang Chan sat beside Mu Qingxiao. She did not sense Liu Yanchang's aura, so she asked curiously.
Hearing this, Mu Qingxiao held her lily-white hand and said, "Brother Liu had to go to the capital city to take the exam. He left a few hours ago."
"I see. That Liu Yanchang, it's better not to contact him in the future."
Thinking of the poem Liu Yanchang used to tease her in her temple, Yang Chan was somewhat unhappy. It was best that he left now. Out of sight, out of mind.
