Chapter 978

As soon as his words fell, he made a grasping motion in the air, and a two-palm-wide forest-white bone heavy sword appeared out of thin air.

Afterwards, the heavy sword swiftly straightened, bringing a buzzing hum, it tore through space, the sword tip pointing straight at Feng Qinger.

At the same time, his extremely imposing gaze turned toward Lin Feng, and he spoke again: "As for you, a lowly commoner, you dare to overstep your station and taint our noble bloodline; in the name of the Discipline Hall Elder of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, I sentence you to death by a thousand cuts!"

"Heh, it's not yet your turn, Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, to intervene."

As for his words, Lin Feng let out a scoff, completely unfazed.

Of course, while he appeared indifferent on the surface, inside he had already made preparations.

If Feng'er could drive the opponent away, that would be best.

If that truly isn't possible, he also couldn't be bothered to conceal the Dragon-Phoenix power; the two would directly use bloodline pressure to drive the opponent back.

Upon seeing the bone sword, Feng'er's pretty face immediately showed a hint of solemnity, and she coldly remarked: "The Discipline Hall Elder certainly thinks highly of me, actually bringing out the Punishment Bone Sword."

"Punishment Bone Sword?"

Upon hearing the new term, Lin Feng's gaze unconsciously fell upon the bone sword pointing at the two of them.

But without looking, one wouldn't know; upon looking, it was startling.

As his gaze fell upon the heavy sword, he quickly discovered that it emitted a noticeably stronger pressure.

Of course, this pressure was not what surprised him.

Most importantly, the pressure emanating from the bone sword was exactly the same as that of the Celestial Phoenix skeleton he had seen in the relics of the Creation Saint.

However, the intensity of the pressure on this sword could easily crush that skeleton from the relic.

Seeing her man's curiosity, Feng'er immediately whispered an explanation: "That bone sword is taken from a rib of a Celestial Phoenix skeleton preserved in excellent condition, whose living strength was that of a Seven-Star Dou Saint, by a supremely powerful senior of our Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, then carved into a heavy sword."

"Furthermore, after that, it was soaked in a special metallic liquid, increasing its hardness; then that senior left a trace of bloodline power on it, which overlapped with the residual pressure of the Celestial Phoenix, and it was named the Punishment Bone Sword—also called the Punishment Bone—this bone sword has an extremely strong restraining effect on our Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan's members, and it has always been wielded by our Discipline Hall Elder."

"Feng Qinger, although I don't know what luck you've had to surge in strength so quickly and reach the Half Saint Realm, you are ultimately only a junior Half Saint, and with me wielding the Punishment Bone Sword, you cannot possibly defeat me."

As he spoke, the Discipline Hall Elder's aura erupted violently.

As his aura fully burst forth, in an instant, a towering aura enveloped the surrounding space for dozens of miles.

According to Lin Feng's estimation, the formidable pressure released would likely cause even some transitional Dou Zun-level magic beasts to buckle at the knees and kneel.

"As expected of one of the three great beast clans, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan—this person, though never appearing in the original work, likely possesses strength slightly greater than Zhao Yuan's; he is only a step away from true Dou Saint Realm. Judging from his somewhat unstable aura, this final step before Dou Saint will probably be completed within ten years."

Gazing at the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan's Discipline Hall Elder, Lin Feng felt immensely solemn.

Don't look at this ten-year span as long; for a high-level Half Saint magic beast, ten years is like ten days or half a month to an ordinary person.

And facing such a formidable opponent, Lin Feng cannot afford to be careless.

However, Feng'er beside him, after hearing the Discipline Hall Elder's words from her own clan, immediately shook her head and said: "Elder, this time you'll likely return empty-handed; neither I nor my man will ever go back with you."

"Bold! Even now, Feng Qinger, you dare to be obstinate. If you don't suffer a bit today, you won't honestly return with this Elder to the clan!"

Seeing Feng Qinger dare to openly declare before this Discipline Hall Elder that Lin Feng, a non-bloodline person, is her man.

The Discipline Hall Elder instantly flew into a rage.

Even the two Nine-Star Dou Zun Heavenly Demon Phoenix beasts that Lin Feng had casually defeated in the distance were now filled with indignation.

Although that young human's combat power far exceeded their expectations, no matter what, in their eyes, even if they were defeated, they remained extraordinarily noble Heavenly Demon Phoenix beings.

But the opponent is merely a bloodless commoner; what is there for Feng Qinger to so ardently defend him?

And even if the two of them were slightly weaker in strength, in terms of bloodline are they not a thousand times more noble than that human?

Feng Qinger, if you want a partner, you could choose either of them—or one of them!

Although it is said that Feng Qinger has already been developed by the human named Lin Feng.

But looking at her pretty face, noble bearing, and extremely round and slender long legs.

The two of them wouldn't mind being the rebound guy!

Meanwhile, seeing the Discipline Hall Elder's reaction, Feng'er felt not the slightest surprise.

After all, she also knew that he was someone who only acknowledges clan rules and is a firm believer in bloodline supremacy.

If she could just say a few casual words to make him abandon his duties and slink back.

He would likely be personally abolished by the clan chief the next day!

Upon thinking this, Feng'er's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her expression solemn as she said: "Since the Discipline Hall Elder is unwilling to retreat easily, then I, the junior, will have to let you know what bloodline pressure is."

Upon hearing this, the Discipline Hall Elder immediately snorted disdainfully: "Nonsense, I possess a ninth-grade bloodline of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan; even if converted to Dou Emperor bloodline, it would still be around eighth-grade. You, a mere seventh-grade bloodline Heavenly Demon Phoenix lass, dare to lecture me on bloodline pressure!"

As his words fell, he swung his heavy sword, flourished a sword blossom, and then a pair of azure-red wings spanning hundreds of zhang unfolded from his back.

Then, with a shake of his massive wings, the Discipline Hall Elder's figure shot forward like a wild gust.

Its speed was such that even Lin Feng beside him could not react in time.

However, Feng'er felt not the slightest shock at this.

All that could be seen was her calm expression as she extended a pair of jade arms, her palms joining before her to form a strange hand seal.

"Boom!"

A pair of azure-red wings, far richer in color than his, suddenly unfurled from Feng'er's back.

Their size was only slightly smaller than the Discipline Hall Elder's wings.

However, the size of these Phoenix wings, though not matching the Discipline Hall Elder's wings,

but if one looks at the wind-fire attribute on these Phoenix wings, it is far richer—multiple times over—than his.

And this situation, the Discipline Hall Elder naturally noticed as well.

At this moment, upon seeing Feng Qinger's pair of Phoenix wings, a surge of unease welled up deep within him.

Phoenix wings are a vital part of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

But now, the wind-fire attribute on her Phoenix wings is far richer—multiple times over—than his.

As a steadfast upholder of bloodline supremacy, he naturally understood exactly what this signified.
