The most central and core volcano of the Central Volcanoes, the Immortal Holy Mountain that was practically the sacred ground for nearly all fire-elemental Fantlings, had begun a violent eruption.
With an earth-shaking roar, the heavens trembled and the earth quaked. A crimson flame stretched from the heavens to the earth, followed by an enormous eruption that spewed volcanic ash nearly the size of a small landmass, blotting out the sun and moon.
Gulu! Gulu!
Red-hot lava cascaded like an avalanche from the crater, obliterating everything in its path. By the time it reached halfway down the mountainside, it had formed a massive red network, resembling the circulatory system of a human body.
Once this Immortal Holy Mountain erupted, it seemed as though it were unleashing all the power it had accumulated over tens of thousands of years in a single moment!
“Jiu jiu!”
Amidst this cataclysmic disaster that shook heaven and earth, a crisp cry rang out clearly from deep within the Immortal Holy Mountain.
“Finally going to appear, huh?”
Wu Ming stood with his arms crossed atop the head of Immortal-Riding Dragon King, floating midair, watching the crater with a stern expression, his eyes gleaming with eagerness.
Divine Fant灵, Flame Emperor, God of Flames, the Destroyer, the chief culprit who devastated most of the ancient Flame Continent… the Fire Immortal Phoenix—Volthas!!!
He murmured, uttering syllables with a strange intonation.
“Jiu jiu!”
The eruption of the Immortal Holy Mountain intensified further. At the same time, a golden-green flame, like a small sun, slowly rose from the magma within the crater.
The surging power radiating from it belonged to a being beyond the King-tier! It compelled all fire-elemental Kings to kneel in submission!
“Jiu jiu!”
Within the sun, the figure of the Fire Immortal Phoenix slowly emerged—
Its entire body was enveloped in astonishing flames and blazing light, resembling a phoenix perpetually ablaze, majestic beyond compare, trailing a radiant flame tail, surrounded by cyan-purple flames.
Whether it was the Flame Tree Clan, the Holy Flame Giant Tiger, or any other King, all now bowed toward the direction of the golden sun, as if beholding their revered deity!
Even the Flamingo King, the strongest among them, was no exception.
Amidst the widespread submission across the mountains and fields, the three King-tier Spirit Tamers led by Wu Ming stood out remarkably.
“Jiu jiu!”
The Fire Immortal Phoenix—Volthas let out a cry, its tone reverberating across the Holy Mountain. Accompanying it was a pressure beyond Kingship!
This was a domain only divine beings could touch! It felt as if the entire heaven and earth were pressing down simultaneously!
“No! I, Chaos King, will never bow to anyone!”
Chaos King roared furiously. The Flame Sprite King he commanded, unable to withstand the pressure, nearly collapsed prostrate, yet was forcibly kept standing by him, emitting an ear-piercing screech: “Jiji!”
He let out a maniacal laugh, actually mounting the Flame Sprite King and charging rapidly toward the Fire Immortal Phoenix: “Haha… even if you are a god, so what? I, the Chaos King… uh…”
Volthas seemed disdainful, lightly flapping its wings. A cyan-purple light flashed.
Chaos King stared blankly at his own chest, where a massive hole had appeared, its edges smooth as a mirror, piercing him completely through.
His expression twisted strangely; both himself and his Flame Sprite King mount were engulfed in cyan-purple flames, instantly turning to ashes.
The sheer terror of a single strike!
“That last attack not only possessed astonishing speed but also compressed the flames to the extreme, rivaling any divine weapon. It sealed and scorched the wound instantly upon impact, not a single drop of blood spilled…”
Wu Ming’s pupils slightly contracted: “This Fire Immortal Phoenix’s mastery over flames is truly peerless, not some brute force-dependent fool!”
He patted Immortal-Riding Dragon King. The White-Gold Dragon roared loudly, slowly flying toward Volthas.
“Wait… Wolf Eagle King, what are you doing?”
Eastern Sea King, still immersed in the shock of Chaos King’s sudden death, seeing Wu Ming act similarly, couldn’t help but shout loudly.
In his view, today their only chance of survival lay in teaming up with this unfathomable Wolf Eagle King.
But he never expected that Wu Ming would charge straight toward the Fire Immortal Phoenix.
“What else? Naturally to subdue it!”
Wu Ming laughed heartily. With a flick of his arm, the Azure Wolf King, Great Peng Ming King, and the Explosive Blazing King emerged around him, focusing intently and surrounding the Fire Immortal Phoenix, sending out provocative signals.
They were like kings standing at the peak of humanity, joining forces to slay the deity in heaven!
“Madness! Absolute madness!”
Eastern Sea King was on the verge of tears: “Strange things happen every year, but this one takes the cake… Chaos King being a madman was bad enough, but how come Wolf Eagle King has gone completely suicidal too?”
After witnessing the Fire Immortal Phoenix firsthand, he had completely abandoned all hopes, praying only to survive would already be a miracle.
“Jiu jiu!”
Facing the provocation from the four King-tier Fant灵s, the Fire Immortal Phoenix’s eyes displayed an extremely anthropomorphic disdain, as if an ordinary human seeing ants challenging them.
But in Wu Ming’s eyes, a sharp gleam flashed as he suddenly formed hand seals, his hands moving rapidly like fluttering butterflies: “Immortal Art—Four Divine Spirit Formation!”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The purple star mark on his forehead flickered rapidly. At the same time, the four King-tier Fantlings raised their heads and roared, their backs faintly revealing mysterious palace illusions.
Four purple pillars of light shot into the sky, instantly sealing the Immortal Phoenix within.
The intense power fluctuations cut off everything, even repelling the forces of heaven and earth, forming a vast vacuum area.
“Jiu jiu!”
Seeing this, the Immortal Phoenix’s eyes finally showed surprise. It flapped its wings.
Peng peng!
Cyan-purple flames struck the formation barrier, burning furiously, causing the barrier to tremble but still holding firm.
The essence of the sixth level lies in the ability to harness the power of the world. In the Great Zhou World, four Earth Immortals could never defeat a Heaven Immortal. But this Fantasy Spirit World is different! Its enhancement of Fantasy Spirits is simply too immense. It impartially empowers Fantasy Spirits by extensively utilizing the forces of the world, meaning the gap between the King-tier limit and the divine threshold isn’t as vast as one might imagine…
Wu Ming’s eyes gleamed wildly as he pointed toward Volthas’s position.
“Hou hou!”
The Azure Wolf King, understanding his intent most eagerly, rushed out first, followed by the Great Peng Ming King, Immortal-Riding Dragon King, and Explosive Blazing King!
Outside the formation, whether it was the Eastern Sea King or other wild King-tier Fant灵s, they could only stare blankly at this scene.
The structure formed by the four violet beams of light, resembling a celestial canopy, created a colossal arena. The four Kings, radiating an overwhelming aura, charged toward the divine-tier Fant Ling!
This scene would forever be etched into their minds, never to be forgotten.
“Immortal Art Enhancement—Dragon Immortal Art!”
Immortal-Riding Dragon King arrived last but struck first. Above it, Wu Ming’s forehead glowed, channeling the formation’s power: “Blizzard Dragon Cyclone!”
Huhu!
A blizzard suddenly raged within the formation. White mist condensed into ice as the temperature plummeted to the extreme.
The Fant spirits roared, their bodies automatically covered in thick ice armor.
This incredible feat transformed the volcanic environment into a frozen wasteland!
The extreme cold even forced back the golden-green sun in the air. The Fire Immortal Phoenix let out a cry as a wave of heat radiated outward, evaporating the ice mist before it could melt, leaving barely any vapor.
“Jiu jiu!”
However, after one strike, the Fire Immortal Phoenix’s eyes showed unease as it quickly charged toward the formation barrier.
“Figured it out, huh?”
Wu Ming chuckled: “The Four Divine Spirit Formation I arranged has the peculiar effect of blocking heavenly and earthly forces! Once deprived of this protection, you can only rely on your own strength to fight Kings!”
He kept one thing unsaid.
Since he was inside the formation himself, he could continuously draw upon the stored world forces from his forehead, and even receive support from the Main Temple’s light for the Fant灵s. Thus, this battle was unfair from the very beginning.
But so what? His opponent was a divine Fant灵; it would be strange not to try every means to weaken it!
Wu Ming firmly believed this Flame Emperor wouldn’t submit to him like the world-line-chosen monarch Xuan Ming did.
He was an outsider, unable to gain Fant灵’s recognition. His only choice was to completely overpower it!
“Zhao zhao!”
Accompanied by a piercing cry that tore through clouds, the Great Peng Ming King was the first to charge into the golden-green solar radiance.
Zila!
Upon entering, its ice armor began evaporating instantly, forming clouds of white mist, clearly indicating the extreme temperatures.
The Great Peng Ming King’s Daoist light flashed as it soared upward, instantly transforming into a golden streak, sweeping over the Immortal Phoenix’s head.
The Fire Immortal Phoenix similarly extended its flame-formed talons, causing violent ripples in the air, resulting in a piercing explosion.
Pu!
The Great Peng Ming King was sent flying backward, its chest bearing a flame claw mark. Extensive blackened scars spread across its body, with tendrils of cyan-purple flames spreading, even consuming its Ming King flames.
Divine winds of the nine heavens, heed my command, transform into sweet rain, swiftly!
A purple glow flickered on Wu Ming’s forehead as an emerald-green whirlwind appeared around the Great Peng Ming King, blowing away the cyan-purple flames and rapidly healing its wounds.
As he was healing the Great Peng Ming King, the Azure Wolf King and Explosive Blazing King also engaged the Immortal Phoenix, suffering even more devastating defeats.
The Explosive Blazing King’s explosive flame attack was directly absorbed by the Immortal Phoenix. Although the Wolf King managed a successful sneak attack with one claw, the Immortal Phoenix was entirely composed of flames. Even though its wing took the blow, it remained unaffected. Instead, it retaliated with a pecking strike, leaving numerous blackened scars on the Wolf King’s azure hide.
“Hou hou!”
Just as the two fell into disadvantage, the Immortal-Riding Dragon King struck.
Radiating with Immortal Art aura, it suddenly opened its dragon maw, unleashing a blinding white beam that pierced straight through the Immortal Phoenix’s body.
Dragon’s Breath!
As the Fant灵 closest to the divine tier, this attack from the Immortal-Riding Dragon King finally had an effect!
A white hole appeared on the Immortal Phoenix’s wing, quickly covered by spreading flames, healing it as if nothing happened, though its aura slightly weakened.
