Chapter 979

Celestial Phoenix Bloodline, open!

The next moment, as Feng Qinger's clear, cold voice slowly drifted from her lips.

The Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall opposite him only felt an unparalleled pressure, like a towering wave, crashing toward him.

Immediately after, his steps uncontrollably retreated backward several dozen meters before he halted his figure.

However, he couldn't care about that now, instead staring ahead in utter disbelief.

Yet, enveloped by that pressure from the front, the first to be harmed was not the Law Enforcement Hall Elder nearest Feng Qinger, but the two nine-star Dou Zun behind.

In the instant that pressure enveloped them, they both let out a muffled groan, then felt their legs go weak and quickly knelt down.

As for that Law Enforcement Hall Elder, he relied on his formidable strength and successfully withstood the bloodline pressure.

But immediately after, he fixed his gaze on Feng Qinger ahead, gritting his teeth and saying: "Heavenly Demon Phoenix? No, your bloodline has evolved to the Celestial Phoenix level!"

He now understands: it must be that during her time away from the clan, she obtained some great fortune, causing her bloodline to skyrocket.

And judging from the current situation, the inheritance Feng Qinger received undoubtedly came from a certain Celestial Phoenix.

Then, as if recalling something, he pointed his finger at Feng Qinger and said: "It's that Dou Saint relic, the Celestial Phoenix skeleton within the Bone Mountain Range's Dou Saint relic—you took it!"

Indeed, your strength now surpasses mine by quite a bit, and you also possess the Punishment Bone Sword, but under my bloodline suppression you still lack the ability to take me back. So we'd better go our separate ways.

Having said that, the bloodline pressure on Feng Qinger's body suddenly turned into an invisible ripple, surging outward like a wave, sweeping once more over the distant few.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

And when that pressure suddenly swept over him, the Law Enforcement Hall Elder's legs uncontrollably stepped backward another dozen or so paces.

As for those two nine-star Dou Zun, they had already lain flat, motionless, prostrate in the void below.

As for Feng Qinger, after driving those few away, she no longer paid them any heed, retracting her cyan and scarlet wings behind her back.

Then her figure flashed, she appeared beside Lin Feng, took his hand, and continued flying toward the Northwest Continent.

Although this Space Wormhole had been largely destroyed, she could still locate an intact segment ahead by following her Dou Qi traces.

Damn it!

Watching Feng Qinger and Lin Feng's receding figures, the Law Enforcement Hall Elder couldn't help but curse loudly.

After all, having overseen clan punishments for so many years, this was the first time he'd been reduced to such a sorry state by a mere girl whose bloodline was merely mediocre before.

If he could swallow this anger, that would be strange!

But under the current circumstances, with her bloodline powerfully suppressing him, his strength is greatly diminished.

To think of defeating Feng Qinger, whose strength has reached the Half-Saint Realm, is nothing but a pipe dream.

Thinking this, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and forced out a sentence from between his teeth.

"Feng Qinger, wait for me! This Elder will certainly not let you roam free. Although I cannot take you back, above me there are three Grand Elders and the clan chief—I don't believe you can defeat them all!"

As soon as his words fell, the Law Enforcement Hall Elder glared at the two nine-star Dou Zun lackeys feigning death beside him and shouted: "Everyone's gone, you two trash—are you planning to lie here for the rest of your lives?"

Swish!

Hearing his anger, the two scrambled to their feet, weakly standing aside, too afraid to speak.

After all, just now these two nine-star Dou Zun were defeated by a five-star Dou Zun—truly embarrassing.

Although the opponent's sudden use of a sound-wave Dou technique, catching them off guard, played a part.

But no matter how you say it, this incident is still embarrassing.

"What are you still doing here? Return to the clan!"

Seeing his subordinates so useless, the Law Enforcement Hall Elder instantly roared in anger and left without looking back.

As for those two nine-star Dou Zun, after exchanging a glance, they silently unfurled their phoenix wings and gave chase.

At this moment, they dare not provoke her misfortune again.

Boom—rumble!

At the same time, somewhere in the southern region of Zhongzhou's Tianxing Mountains, a three-colored fire lotus silently streaked across the sky; then, after a flash of light suddenly appeared in the heavens, the surrounding world shuddered violently, emitting a deafening roar.

Immediately, under Xiao Yan's excited gaze, that three-colored fire lotus exploded with a bang, a ring of three-colored fire waves radiating outward from the lotus at extreme speed.

"Great! After experimenting for so long, we finally succeeded!"

Gazing at the rapidly expanding circular fire wave on the distant horizon, Xiao Yan's mouth corners twitched wildly as he burst into loud laughter.

He then clenched his fists, exclaiming delightedly: "Just the fire lotus formed from the three strange flames—Xuanhuang Flame, Volcanic Stone Flame, and Sea-Core Flame—is enough to kill an ordinary Dou Zong expert. Adding my Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, and Blood Demon Flame, most Dou Zun experts would be unable to resist."

However, recalling how Lin Feng's face turned pale instantly after he unleashed that five-colored fire lotus,

He furrowed his brow slightly, thinking to himself: "From the rate of Dou Qi consumption when Lin Feng previously released such a fire lotus, even if I were at peak condition, using five strange flames to make this fire lotus would likely not kill the opponent; instead, I'd run out of Dou Qi and be killed by him."

But soon he thought of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire within the Falling Star Pavilion.

If he could absorb that strange fire, the energy contained within the eleventh-ranked Bone Spirit Cold Fire on the Strange Fire list should raise his strength by one or two stars.

By then, his Flame Mantra might possibly be elevated to the low Heavenly Step level!

That way, even releasing the five-colored fire lotus two or three times would be more than enough.

However, thinking of his teacher's former lover, who still resides there.

Xiao Yan sighed helplessly and temporarily abandoned the idea.

"Moreover, according to what Aunt Han said earlier, Lin Feng that guy has already obtained an even stronger Bone Spirit Cold Fire; after he absorbs it, his strength will surely rise another level."

Recalling the information Han Shanshan had mentioned earlier, Xiao Yan's face darkened.

After all, he and Lin Feng are now locked in a mortal feud.

The stronger the opponent becomes, the more disadvantageous it is for him.

Most importantly, that guy also cultivates the Flame Mantra just like him, and can likewise absorb strange fires to raise his technique level and strength.

"However, if Lin Feng that guy later sees that I've researched this Dou technique, who knows if he'll be so angry he'll vomit blood!"

Thinking back to the power of the fire lotus Lin Feng previously unleashed, Xiao Yan's heart suddenly felt a surge of delight.

Even the matter of Lin Feng, after trading with Han Shanshan, later hitting him with another volume of a Heavenly Step Technique, has been cast to the back of his mind.

Unexpectedly, the power of this combat skill is completely determined by the quantity of different fire used when merging the fire lotus, just like the Flame Canon, and it possesses growth potential.

Therefore, to him who also cultivates the Flame Canon, it is even better than that Heavenly Step Technique combat skill!

However, if Lin Feng knew about the former's matter, he would probably just smile indifferently and not care.

After all, when he used this combat skill, he already had this mental preparation.

Moreover, strictly speaking, he still learned this combat skill from Xiao Yan.

Therefore, he doesn't care whether this combat skill will be learned by Xiao Yan

"By the way, I also don't know if the teacher went to retrieve a female Fighting Venerable's body for Aunt Han. Now, less than half a year remains until the Ancient Clan's coming-of-age ceremony, I must within this time quickly increase my strength."

Thinking of that absolute beautiful woman deep in his mind, Xiao Yan clenched his fists and then rushed toward the direction of the Starfall Pavilion.
