Chapter 92: Shi Gao Is Eliminated

Donggong Qianxue’s mind turned in an instant, and she made up her mind at once.

With a sudden roar, the flames upon her multicolored phoenix form swelled to twice their former fury, nearly enough to reduce heaven and earth to ashes.

Then she beat her wings and charged toward a golden battle standard.

“Moshui, quickly, she’s going to destroy your banner!” Hua Wuhen cried out. “Can you move its position?”

“No.”

Moshui was drenched in sweat. “These eight golden banners are one single formation. If one moves, all must move together.”

“The eight banners are one? Then if one is destroyed, this instant-eternity formation will fail? In that case, move them as a whole. We absolutely cannot let her destroy it.”

Hua Wuhen was likewise frantic. Even with the withering flower of the years driven to its utmost, less than one-fifth of the tree had yet fallen.

If Donggong Qianxue broke the formation now, the trouble would be immense.

As he spoke, the flower in his hand continued to wither, petal after petal drifting down from the tree.

“For now, this is the only way. We must not let Donggong Qianxue destroy my banner.”

Moshui gave a cold shout. Seeing Donggong Qianxue about to reach the golden standard, he hastily extended his right hand and curled his fingers inward.

With a rush, the eight golden banners shot upward at once, and as they rose, their size rapidly shrank.

The instant the eight banners surged into the air, the flow of time around Donggong Qianxue abruptly returned to normal.

“Haah...”

Seizing that brief opening, Donggong Qianxue violently beat her broad wings, unleashing a torrent of phoenix feathers that whistled toward Hua Wuhen and Moshui like a dense rain.

“Damn it, Shigao, what are you doing? Use your stone tower to hold her down!” Hua Wuhen and Moshui cried out in alarm, quickly flashing to the side to evade the hail of feathers.

But Donggong Qianxue had loosed too many; a few still escaped their dodge.

The feathers hissed like sharp blades and instantly pierced through Hua Wuhen and Moshui, sending blood spurting into the air.

At the same time, with a thunderous crash, Shigao’s massive stone tower descended from the sky to suppress them.

This time, Donggong Qianxue had been focused only on attacking Hua Wuhen and Moshui, and failed to evade the tower. It struck her squarely.

At once, Donggong Qianxue felt as though a towering mountain had suddenly crashed down upon her.

Even as formidable as she was, she could not withstand the tower’s suppression. Cracks erupted across her divine phoenix body.

Streams of searing divine blood sprayed from the shattered form, a truly brutal sight.

“Haha, I’ve wounded her!” Shigao roared with wild laughter, overjoyed to the extreme at landing the blow.

Yet before his laughter had even faded,

whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

the divine blood bursting from Donggong Qianxue suddenly transformed into countless blood arrows and shot straight toward Shigao.

Her counterattack was far too sudden. By the time Shigao reacted, the arrows had already reached him.

“Damn it!”

His laughter cut off abruptly. His eyes nearly split with shock and terror.

At such close range, there was no chance to dodge. The moment he moved, the blood arrows had already struck him.

Hiss, hiss, hiss...

Shigao’s body was instantly riddled through, nearly turned into a sieve, his appearance ghastly beyond measure.

The agony twisted his face in a bizarre convulsion, and then he suddenly flew into a complete frenzy, roaring, “Donggong Qianxue, you wretched woman, go to hell!”

With that cry, he drove the huge stone tower once more to suppress her with all his might.

Unfortunately for him, Donggong Qianxue had already anticipated it. With a fierce beat of her broad wings, she burst through the gale and shot away from the massive tower.

In the next instant, she suddenly surged upward against the heavens, her multicolored radiance arcing skyward like a rainbow of impossible brilliance.

In the blink of an eye, she landed atop the tower.

A piercing cry rang out from her beak.

A phoenix call over the nine heavens!

At this moment her multicolored brilliance blazed with dazzling splendor, so bright that one could scarcely keep one’s eyes open. All her power was poured into her pair of enormous claws as she stood upon the great stone tower and pressed it straight down toward Shigao with crushing force.

Amid the booming thunder, the violent pressure rolled down like a vast ocean, suffocating in its intensity.

“Stop! We concede!”

A shout erupted from the direction of the Sacred Kingdom of Absolute Extinction.

But everything was already too late...

With a heavy crash, the immense stone tower had already smashed down upon Shigao.

“Aaah!”

Amid the screams, Shigao’s body was instantly covered in spiderweb cracks, bright blood gushing out in streams.

In an instant, he was soaked crimson, his form miserably mangled.

“We surrender, our Sacred Kingdom of Absolute Extinction surrenders!”

A middle-aged man shot out from the icy steps in the Sacred Kingdom of Absolute Extinction’s area, scooped up the blood-soaked Shigao, and rapidly withdrew.

Shigao’s injuries were clearly severe; he could no longer fight at all.

Without a year or two, he likely would not recover.

“Hmph.”

Donggong Qianxue seized the huge stone tower with both claws and flung it violently toward the edge of the icy battle platform.

Shigao was eliminated.

Hiss...

Seeing Donggong Qianxue blazing with divine radiance in all directions, everyone around inhaled sharply.

This princess of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom truly deserved her divine phoenix bloodline; her battle prowess was so overwhelming it seemed unreal, like a dream.

Too terrifying.

In just a short while, she had eliminated two princes of sacred kingdoms.

One must know that a prince of a sacred kingdom was, without question, among the absolute peak of the younger generation within that kingdom. Yet in front of Donggong Qianxue, they seemed so pitifully weak.

Unbelievable.

Within her chest, battle intent still raged like a storm. Terrifying flames burned madly, as though transformed into a sky-filling fire of hatred, enough to reduce heaven and earth to ashes in an instant.

After eliminating Shigao, she did not even glance at him, but instead shot straight toward her next target—the prince of the Jade Orchid Sacred Kingdom, Moshui!

At this very moment, she could already clearly feel her own aging, though now, transformed into a divine phoenix, it could not be seen.

If she reverted to human form, perhaps even white hair would already have appeared upon her head.

She had to eliminate these two as quickly as possible!

Otherwise, she would truly be aged to death by Hua Wuhen’s flower of the years!

“Moshi, quickly, suppress and seal her!” Hua Wuhen cried out urgently upon seeing Donggong Qianxue’s heaven-shaking momentum.

Moshui’s face was likewise deathly pale. With a violent sweep, he hurled the eight golden banners outward and shouted, “Instant Eternity!”
