Chapter 893: with translation of chapter title

And Elder Chuli's emotions seemed to also return to that day's battlefield, and immediately his voice trembled as he said: "In that great battle, both sides were bloodshot-eyed, countless powerhouses frantically attacked each other. Even at the most tragic moment, both sides' people gave up Dou Qi attacks and directly ran into the enemy crowd to self-destruct."

"At the end, our Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan, although aided by a sneak attack and with many of the enemy's personnel out, we were at a disadvantage yet succeeded in annihilating the enemy. However, the personnel of our clan who took part in that operation, aside from a few of us who managed to escape by luck, all the others followed a Phoenix clan Dou Saint Elder, successfully activated the Protective Clan Grand Formation, and together with the Phoenix Realm, permanently disappeared from this world."

As he spoke further, Elder Chuli's aged eyes also couldn't help but flash a trace of lingering fear.

Obviously, that battle left him with an extremely deep impression.

After all, if it weren't for their inexplicably good luck, the enemy clan's powerhouses would have likewise vanished without a trace.

Furthermore, when they went for the sneak attack, the enemy's forces were scattered and were picked off one by one.

The fate of their Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan is likely the same as that of the current Phoenix clan, or even worse.

And Lin Feng, upon hearing this, finally understood what Qing Yan had said earlier: the Phoenix Realm had already been completely destroyed thousands of years ago by the remnants of our clan's Dou Saint powerhouses, who self-detonated. Inside, the remaining elderly, weak, sick, and disabled of the Phoenix clan were also completely obliterated in the endless void. What does that mean?

It must be that at that time, the Phoenix clan's Elder, seeing no hope of victory, desperately activated the Protective Clan Grand Formation and then directly self-detonated the formation.

He intended to take all the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan members inside the Phoenix Realm with him in a mutual annihilation, dealing a heavy blow to the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan.

Judging from the outcome, the enemy's purpose was basically achieved.

After all, Elder Chuli had said before that aside from a small number of them, the rest basically died inside.

"However, the Phoenix clan's powerhouses also inexplicably disappeared; could it be that they discovered Chukun had found the ancient emperor Tu She's cave dwelling, went to intercept him, and ultimately all died in battle outside?"

Thinking that the Phoenix clan's powerhouses have not shown up for so long, Lin Feng guessed that they were probably all already dead.

Otherwise, if they returned home and found the entire Phoenix Realm gone, they would surely come at once to seek revenge from the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan.

And according to Elder Chuli, at that time the Phoenix clan's chief was also a peak-level Nine-Star Dou Saint powerhouse.

A few casual blows could have wiped out the then extremely fragile Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan.

As for Elder Chuli, his tone shifted again, and he exclaimed angrily: "After that great battle, our Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan suffered heavy losses, and with only a few surviving powerhouses fleeing into the endless void to continue searching for the old Dragon Emperor, the three Dragon Kings seized the opportunity, began to split the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan. Only then did our Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan become what it is today!"

Upon hearing that, many of Lin Feng's doubts were dispelled.

No wonder those three Dragon Kings dared to split the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan so recklessly.

It turns out they seized the moment when the clan was weak, the Dragon Emperor had disappeared, and the elders hastily fled into the void to rise up.

However, Lin Feng suddenly thought of the Phoenix clan's remains inside the Yun Lan Sect's forbidden area.

"The outbound powerhouses of both the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan and the Phoenix clan have completely disappeared; the old Dragon Emperor is trapped, his wife vanished, Zi Yan was even abandoned as an egg, suffering from innate malnutrition. All the powerhouses of the Phoenix clan are utterly without trace. The Heijiaoyu and Jia Ma Empire regions are probably not that simple!"

Thinking of this series of events, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

However, afterwards he helplessly shook his head.

Now although he knows the general course of that incident, the specifics are unknowable.

After all, of the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan members who went out back then, the only one he knows now is the old Dragon Emperor himself.

But Zi Yan is currently in seclusion, absorbing the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

As for himself, he cannot get past those lizardfolk's interceptions to enter the bottom of the underground magma world of Canaan Academy to inquire of the old Dragon Emperor.

And East Dragon Island's

These people are somewhat unreliable.

Taking them along would easily trigger a series of things he cannot control.

By then, what kind of results would arise, he dare not even imagine.

"Alas, my own strength is still too low; otherwise I could figure out exactly what happened back then. Maybe I could even gain some benefits from it."

Thinking of the information from Elder Chuli's earlier words, Lin Feng immediately felt extremely disappointed.

After all, if he could know what happened back then and clearly where those Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan and Phoenix clan powerhouses went.

Even if the opposing side has been dead for ages, even just those powerhouses' storage rings could let him instantly catch up to an ancient force.

Because from the information Lin Feng knows, the total number of missing Dou Saint powerhouses from the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan and the Phoenix clan is likely already over a hundred!

With so many Dou Saint powerhouses' wealth, it's hard to imagine just how abundant it would be.

However, regarding the Phoenix clan's plight, Lin Feng also feels deep sympathy.

After all, judging by the situation at that time, the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan completely lacked the strength to annihilate the Phoenix clan.

But the misfortune lies in the fact that the Phoenix clan's surviving powerhouses happened to be separated.

And at this critical juncture, they just happened to encounter Elder Chuli and his group coming to cause trouble.

In the end, due to overly dispersed forces, they were repeatedly outnumbered in local engagements by the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan, leading to their destruction.

If at that time the Phoenix clan's three Eight-Star Dou Saints and other powerhouses had all gathered together, plus the Protective Clan Grand Formation.

Elder Chuli and his ilk daring to go to the Phoenix Realm to cause trouble would likely be slaughtered outright, to the point that even half of the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan couldn't return.

This is also why Elder Chuli previously said he had thought that was a doomed mission with no chance of survival.

"I never expected that after Zi Yan gave up and disappeared, the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan would actually experience so many things!"

After digesting the information just spoken, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh.

"Alas, it's a pity that even if we finally truly annihilated that opponent we've fought for untold hundreds of thousands of years, the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan not only failed to flourish, but can only hide in this void, barely clinging to life."

Upon hearing that, Elder Chuli couldn't help but feel somewhat sorrowful about the current situation.

They once sacrificed so many people and finally managed to defeat their old rival.

But now they are being pressed to the point of breathlessness by the opponent's descendants.

After all, even if the current Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan unites the four islands, it is still difficult to defeat the Heavenly Demon Phoenix clan.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be hiding day after day in the depths of this void.
