At dawn, a dazzling red light suddenly surged from the distant horizon and spread towards Jade Imperial City at an astonishing speed.
Accompanying this red light was an incomparably violent heatwave.
Wherever it passed, the world seemed to have turned into a furnace. The temperature soared, and the vegetation, sand, and stones were all turned into ashes. Countless dust was swept up into the sky, and crackling sounds of explosions resounded throughout the sky.
After a short moment, the red light turned into a sea of flames that surged forward like a raging wave.
Within the sea of flames, an exceptionally large figure flapped its wings from time to time, moving forward as fast as lightning. The terrifying Strength Qi wreaked havoc, causing the sea of flames to become even more violent and blazing, to the point that the nearby space was dyed in a captivating red color, as if it was about to ignite into flames at any time.
A hundred miles outside of Jade Emperor City, dozens of figures were flying through the air at lightning speed.
In the past two days, the atmosphere in the city had become more and more tense and oppressive. More and more cultivators had fled, and their group was also planning to leave.
Suddenly, everyone seemed to have sensed something. Their bodies slightly paused as they subconsciously looked over.
However, in the next moment, the eyes of these dozens of cultivators widened. In an instant, shock involuntarily surfaced from the depths of their eyes.
"He's here!" "He's here!"
"Fire Phoenix!"
"..."
Soon after, screams involuntarily rushed out of everyone's throats, and even their voices began to tremble. The only thing that could have such a terrifying momentum when moving was the fire phoenix. In the past, the fire phoenix was only a rumor, but now, the rumor had appeared right in front of their eyes.
However, the commotion caused everyone's hearts to tremble.
Even though they were still far away, everyone could still feel the terrifying heat. It was as if an erupting volcano was moving. When the heat swept over like a wave, everyone immediately had the illusion that their souls were about to melt.
"Let's go!" "Let's go!"
A yellow-robed man was the first to wake up. He roared with a hoarse voice.
At the same time as he spoke, the yellow-robed man had already rushed towards the Jade Imperial City without looking back. The other dozens of cultivators seemed to have awoken from a dream as they all turned around and rushed towards the Jade Imperial City. It was as if they wished they could grow a few more pairs of wings and escape from the range of the Fire Phoenix's might.
However, although their reactions were not slow, they still could not escape this disaster.
Almost a moment later, a captivating red heat wave rolled over from Xie Xie's side. These dozens of cultivators only had time to use their Tian Yuan to condense a layer of energy barrier on the surface of their bodies before they were engulfed by the heat wave. The energy barrier did not have much of an effect, and in the blink of an eye, it had already shattered.
Shock, fear, regret, sorrow, despair …
Just as all sorts of emotions surfaced in the eyes of the crowd, the bright red flames followed closely behind the heat wave. In the blink of an eye, the horrified faces had already disappeared into the depths of the raging flames. In an instant, they completely melted away, not even leaving a trace behind.
"Clang!"
A resounding cry that sounded like the clang of metal suddenly shook the world and spread thousands of miles away.
Within the raging flames, the Fire Phoenix flapped its wings a few times. In an instant, it traversed a hundred miles of space and appeared outside of Jade Imperial City. Immediately after, a violent aura that seemed to be able to destroy the heavens and the earth howled in all directions along with the heat wave, as if the end of the world had arrived.
At this time, at the edge of Jade Imperial City, a few figures had already appeared in the sky about a few thousand meters away from the fire phoenix. They were Xiao Niao, Jin Hong, Chong Ze, and Sang Xiangyang, the four Heavenly Kings. In the city behind them, there were even more figures standing in the air, but they were all silent and terrified.
"A middle level Heavenly King, three lower level Heavenly Kings …"
A cold and stern voice suddenly reverberated throughout the world, and the captivating red flames suddenly retreated like the tide.
In an instant, the huge body of the Flamephoenix was completely revealed in front of everyone's line of sight. Its huge wings spread out, covering the sky and covering the sun. Every single feather on its body seemed to be condensed from flames, and the blazing heat actually turned into a substance that lingered around its body.
"You think you can stop me with just you?"
Looking at Xiao Niao and the others from afar, the Flamephoenix's fiery red eyes were filled with an ice-cold intent. In the blink of an eye, notes jumped out from its mouth one after another like rolling thunder, condensing into an extremely terrifying pressure that rumbled forward with a terrifying might.
At this moment, whether it was Chong Ze, the middle level Heavenly King, or Xiao Niao and the other lower level Heavenly Kings, their expressions couldn't help but change.
Standing in front of the Flamephoenix, Xiao Niao, Chong Ze, and the others indeed felt an extremely strong sense of insignificance. It was as if they were standing in front of a towering mountain, and they were just a rock at the foot of the mountain. Even if the Flamephoenix hadn't done anything, they could still feel the immense pressure.
However, after a split-second, Xiao Niao and the others calmed down.
"With just the four of us, of course it's not enough!"
Xiao Niao's brows were filled with smiles, and she couldn't see even the slightest bit of panic or fear.
When the Flamephoenix saw this, an undetectable look of surprise flashed across its eyes.
The Inferior Heavenly King's performance was a little too calm, which made it curious. Was the group of Heavenly King cultivators bluffing, or did they have something else to rely on? With just a flash of this thought, the Flamephoenix couldn't help but reveal a trace of interest.
"But what if we add her?"
Xiao Niao raised her jade-like hand and pointed to the left.
Almost at the same instant her voice fell, a graceful figure appeared a few thousand meters to the left of the Flamephoenix without any warning. It was a woman wearing a purple dress. She had a slim and graceful figure, snow-white skin, picturesque eyebrows, and a peerlessly beautiful face.
Almost at the same instant she appeared, an exceptionally terrifying aura roared out from her body without any concealment, and a violent storm seemed to have arisen out of thin air beside her.
"Upper Sky King?" The fire phoenix snorted lightly, its tone filled with disdain.
"One Upper Sky King might not be enough, but what if there are two?"
Xiao Niao smiled and pointed to the right of the Flamephoenix. In the air thousands of meters away, a little girl that looked like she was carved out of jade appeared. Her white and tender face was filled with an innocent smile.
