Chapter 63: Suppressing the Demon Dragon and Phoenix, Jieyin and Zhunti Were Left Dumbfounded!

At this moment, what Chen Ku sacrificed was a treasure named the Dragon Phoenix Zither.

On the body of the zither, ancient and profound Dao patterns flowed and intertwined, mysterious and yet more mysterious.

But this is not where the miraculous nature of this spiritual treasure lies.

In the past, during the Dragon Han Initial Calamity, powerful beings of the Dragon and Phoenix clans fought to the death without cease, ultimately both perishing.

Their essence and blood merged, and over time, nurtured by heaven and earth, this treasure was formed, ranking among the highest-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Once sacrificed, the treasure can transform into a true dragon and true phoenix, displaying boundless might.

But know that this object is merely the fusion of the essence and blood of powerful beings from the Dragon and Phoenix clans.

Although it has the form of a true dragon and true phoenix, lacking a master soul's support actually greatly reduces its power.

Now, using it to suppress the demon dragon and phoenix is just right.

Moreover, if form and spirit can merge, it would also bring immense benefit to this Dragon Phoenix Zither treasure, immeasurable.

Now, back to the scene!

As the Dragon Phoenix Zither displayed its power, a huge true dragon silhouette and a true phoenix that blotted out the sky also manifested.

Dragon chants and phoenix calls intertwined, piercing metal and splitting stone, deafening, vast, and soul‑shaking!

The true dragon and phoenix, bearing overwhelming momentum, went toward the demon dragon and phoenix.

Light and darkness intertwined; this scene was magnificent yet eerily extreme.

Chen Ku stared unblinking; the power of this highest‑grade innate spiritual treasure was ultimately limited.

He could not guarantee whether he could completely suppress the demon dragon and phoenix.

Under Chen Ku's gaze, the aura of the dragon and phoenix surged forth, displaying a great solemn majesty that brooked no desecration.

For a moment, the demon dragon and phoenix's originally violent and abnormal forms paused slightly.

In their eyes, filled with surging killing intent, a hint of fear also appeared.

Not bad!

The demon dragon and phoenix actually felt fear at this moment.

After all, facing the true dragon and phoenix is a suppression that comes from deep within the bloodline, impossible to resist.

Moreover, the aura emanating from the Dragon Phoenix Zither gradually purified the demon dragon and phoenix's violent qi, greatly diminishing their might once more, no longer as it was at their previous peak.

Watching this, Chen Ku's heart settled greatly.

This wave... is stable!

Indeed!

Under unquestionable suppression, the demon dragon and phoenix no longer possessed their former formidable aura.

In just a short moment, they were completely suppressed.

Then, with a flash of divine light, the Dragon Phoenix Zither directly devoured the demon dragon and phoenix, thus sealing them.

However, even as it was about to be sealed, the demon dragon, like a dying backlash, suddenly erupted with a terrifyingly fierce aura that could crush the heavens.

Under the spread of that aura, it directly fell into Mount Sumeru.

Furthermore, even though it had been sealed, the Dragon Phoenix Zither continued to roar and tremble lightly, as if the demon dragon and phoenix's aura might burst it apart.

Chen Ku merely gave a light smile at this.

"Hmph, at this point, you still dare to act fiercely?!"

With a cold shout, Chen Ku waved his hand and directly set a Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal‑level sealing power upon the Dragon Phoenix Zither.

Thus, no matter how violently the demon dragon and phoenix retaliated, or how fiercely the Dragon Phoenix Zither shook, it could hardly break that sealing power.

Only then did Chen Ku smile with satisfaction.

But he did not notice.

That aura from earlier had fallen into Mount Sumeru.

Instantly, the divine peak trembled, giant rocks exploded, turning into flying sand and stones across the sky, indeed a scene of chaos.

The laws were disordered, order collapsed!

Such an anomaly has already affected the fundamental stability of Mount Sumeru.

And such a tremendous commotion finally roused Jieyin and Zhunti, who had been in closed‑door cultivation contemplating the Primordial Purple Qi.

The two sat cross‑legged upon the Twelve‑Rank Merit Golden Lotus, and at this moment their eyes suddenly opened.

"Oh no, that demonic qi is surging again."

In an instant, Zhunti reacted, crying out, his pupils constricting as he looked toward the heavens where thick demonic qi still roiled.

To Zhunti, such a sight was not unfamiliar, or rather, he had long grown accustomed to it.

But he never expected that, upon just waking, he would face a demonic qi surge of the Great Calamity level.

Before his words even finished, he had already risen, preparing to act.

But just then, Jieyin suddenly spoke:

"Wait!"

"Is that... Chen Ku?"

"Ah... my humble disciple actually can oppose the demonic qi surge with his own strength?"

Just awakened, Jieyin had already faintly seen a figure appearing and disappearing within the sky‑filling demonic qi.

Upon closer inspection, he was shocked beyond words, unable to help drawing in a cold breath.

Numb!

What on earth happened during our period of closed‑door cultivation?!

You know that every previous demonic qi surge required Jieyin and Zhunti to join forces, only then could they quell it and restore stability and harmony to the Western heavens and earth.

What's more, what is seen now has completely surpassed the scope of an ordinary demonic qi surge.

But it had reached an even more horrifying Great Calamity storm level.

Such a terrifying sight, even if Jieyin and Zhunti were to act, would require utmost caution.

A single mistake could allow demonic qi to invade the body and backfire on one's cultivation.

Chen Ku, this brat... how dare he?!

Hearing Jieyin's words, Zhunti also froze in place, and at a glance was left dumbfounded.

"This humble daoist... I haven't seen wrong, have I?!"

"Your junior disciple actually single-handedly quelled the Great Calamity storm, and even has some... ease to spare?!"

Not bad!

What shocked the two of them was not that Chen Ku alone withstood the Great Calamity storm.

After all, who wouldn't be courting death?!

But what truly left them stunned beyond words was that Chen Ku showed not a trace of panic or fear at this moment.

On the contrary, under the support of the Buddha's Golden Body and the protection of the Azure Lotus Treasure Banner, Chen Ku actually appeared completely at ease.

Numb!

Totally numb!

This disciple (junior), just how formidable is his combat power?

In fact, at this moment Chen Ku had subdued the demon dragon and phoenix, and the pressure had consequently lessened somewhat.

Moreover, his fleshly body had risen to the Six Transformations level, making demonic qi hard to invade.

Therefore, even though demonic qi still surged like a flood covering the sky and earth, and resentful thoughts gathered, etc., for Chen Ku they were no longer a major problem.

After all, at his level, numbers can hardly make up for the gap in quality.

Only saw Chen Ku step by step stride forth, shattering the void, wandering amidst the Great Calamity storm.

And each of his strikes instantly purified, or obliterated, the vast, towering demonic qi.

Besides, Jieyin's heart was also filled with astonishment and regret, beyond words.

After a long silence, he could only let out a bitter laugh and softly say:

"Every time we think we've seen through this brat, he manages to refresh our understanding again."

"This......"

Jieyin was also somewhat speechless.

Moreover, after a moment's pondering, Jieyin's gaze fell upon that Dragon-Phoenix Qin.

"That's fine as well!"

"That brat actually dares to nurture a spiritual treasure with demonic qi; we thus need not intervene for now."

"Let's see just how far he can go!"

With Jieyin and Zhunti's eyes, it was naturally obvious at a glance.

After the Dragon-Phoenix Qin fused with the demon dragon and phoenix, its aura was gradually rising.

If we wait until the fusion is complete, the treasure's power will surely be able to rise another level.

Chen Ku's fortune once again left the two of them envious.

And in the midst of this conversation, the two stood to the side, not rushing to act.

Simply put, without many words, their inner mana had already begun to turn secretly.

Should Chen Ku encounter any mishap, the two would not hesitate to act immediately, protecting him from harm!
