Chapter 803: Role Reversal

I can't return to the Phoenix Clan!

Once I leave this Grand World, I will surely be executed by the clan's demonic emperor!

Please, Master, save me!

The entire valley became a sea of fire.

Above the sea of fire, in the void.

After helping He Pingsheng collect all the Phoenix bodies, Feng Wu collapsed to his knees before He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng waved his hand and said, "No need to kneel… Don't worry, as long as I survive and leave, you won't die!"

Taking Feng Wu with me is simple enough.

After all, his Hongmeng Purple Gold Rod contains a space.

Storing a person is effortless!

"Yes!" Feng Wu stood up.

He Pingsheng pulled out a Phoenix body and asked, "If you strip the skin off this and make it into a talisman, what rank would it be—sixth or seventh?"

After all, these people were all genuine Cultivation Base practitioners of Body Integration.

But later, just before death, due to the collapse of the formation, their cultivation levels all regressed to Void Refinement Level Twelve.

Now that these Phoenixes are all dead, what rank is their hide?

He Pingsheng couldn't tell.

Feng Wu said, "It should be seventh rank… After they passed the heavenly tribulation, their hides and blood were purified and upgraded!"

"Even though their cultivation later regressed to Void Refinement, their hides and flesh remain seventh-rank materials—they don't regress!"

He Pingsheng nodded. "That makes sense."

"I have a space on my person—go inside and hide."

He Pingsheng waved his hand and sealed Feng Wu into his magic treasure's space.

Not just Feng Wu—all the other Phoenix corpses were also collected.

And the golden temporal golden banner as well.

Then He Pingsheng transformed into a streak of light and departed, landing again on a quiet mountain peak.

Phoenix Clan!

Kongkong Beast Clan!

Tianpeng Clan!

Wait for it…

Want to kill me?

Hehehe… Now, the roles have reversed.

He Pingsheng waved his hand and pulled out more than twenty talismans glowing with pale golden light.

All were Soul-Linking Talismans.

Qiao Huizhu had originally forged him over twenty of these, later upgraded to forty-four.

Around the Heavenly Fire Divine Emperor's palace, he used about ten to kill the Emperor's disciples.

Now he still had about twenty-eight left.

Enough!

…

"Crack…"

Before Feng Wanxi, a white fate tablet suddenly shattered.

Blood seeped from the cracks in the jade tablet.

"This…" the Tianpeng Crown Prince exclaimed in shock, "How is this possible?"

"Dead?"

Feng Wanxi's delicate brows knotted tightly: "Yes… dead… This is bad!"

"If even one person in the Twelve Rebirth Shared-Life Formation is slain by He Pingsheng, the formation will shatter!"

"Damn it… How could such a powerful formation still result in deaths?"

"Is He Pingsheng really this hard to kill?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth!

Crack!

A second fate tablet shattered.

This one belonged to Yun Yi!

"This… Yun Yi is dead too?" Feng Wanxi could hardly believe her eyes.

That was a Body Integration cultivator!

Twelve Body Integration cultivators, plus the Phoenix Clan's heavenly formation, plus the Kongkong Beast Clan's supreme golden banner imperial weapon.

And still they lost?

How could He Pingsheng be this monstrous?

Impossible…

Absolutely impossible!

Crack… crack…

After that, the cracking sounds never ceased.

Eleven fate tablets shattered in total.

Even the Kongkong Crown Prince was dead.

"Damn it…" Feng Wanxi collapsed onto the ground.

"Holy Maiden…"

"Holy Maiden, Holy Maiden…"

"What's wrong with you?"

Surrounding Phoenix cultivators rushed over.

Around Feng Wanxi stood more than twenty Phoenix prodigies.

"Strange," Feng Wanxi said, "Only Huo Ming, his clone, and Feng Wu survived—the rest are all dead!"

"I just don't understand—how could the Kongkong Crown Prince die?"

"And how could He Pingsheng defeat twelve Body Integration cultivators under double suppression?"

These questions had become mysteries!

"What do we do now?" someone asked. "Wait here for Huo Ming and Feng Wu to arrive?"

"No!" Feng Wanxi shuddered. "We've lost our trump cards!"

"If He Pingsheng follows them here, none of us will survive!"

"From now on, everyone scatter and flee!"

"Remember my words—don't go near those five Prodigy Steles, or if He Pingsheng kills you, don't blame me for not warning you!"

"Go…"

Saying this, Feng Wanxi was the first to transform into a streak of light and vanished.

She wasn't foolish—she wouldn't wait for someone to come and cut her down.

Her most urgent task now was to follow He Pingsheng's example: find a hidden place to conceal herself, so no one could track her.

Otherwise, she might truly be killed.

As for the Prodigy Stele in this trial?

Forget it!

None of it matters!

Keeping her life to climb the Stone Platform Stairway is the only path.

The other Phoenix prodigies followed Feng Wanxi's example, each finding a hiding spot.

…

"Seventh Elder… the results are in!"

A female elder in green robes approached the Phoenix Seventh Elder.

This was a grand hall.

The Seventh Elder sat on the main seat, flanked by over a dozen Mahayana Emperor-level cultivators.

Among them were Phoenix demonic emperors, Golden Crow demonic emperors, Kongkong demonic emperors, and more!

These were all the high-ranking figures who had plotted against He Pingsheng.

Including the Tianpeng demonic emperor.

"Six people and their clones sent on the third step are all dead—ten of them. Only this Huo Ming boy remains alive for reasons unknown…"

The green-robed elder spoke softly, but her words were crystal clear.

They knew nothing of Feng Wu's situation.

Because Feng Wu's appearance in the third step was an unexpected anomaly.

The Seventh Elder's face turned ashen, his entire body filled with deep confusion: "How is this possible?"

"He Pingsheng… absolutely cannot possess such combat power!"

Could it be that he has allied with Wang Dun?

The woman in green did not respond to the Seventh Elder's speculation; instead, she turned to look at Kongkong Yaodi and said, "Your Majesty Kongkong Yaodi, I have a heartbreaking message to deliver to you… Just now, one of your Kongkong beast clan's elders said that…"

"What?" Kongkong Yaodi felt a premonition of doom.

He shot to his feet with a sudden motion.

"Huh…" The woman in green took a deep breath and continued, "The life tablet of Prince Kongkong has shattered… His original body and all his incarnations have perished!"

"How is that possible?" Kongkong Yaodi shrieked. "Even if my son's original body was killed, he still had incarnations!"

"His incarnations were never brought into the Grand World!"

The entire hall fell utterly silent.

No one could answer Kongkong Yaodi's cries or questions.

But everyone knew someone must have attached a talisman to Prince Kongkong.

Chain Soul Talisman!
