Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix took a deep breath and received the Dragon Soul Saber.
Although he had tried to subdue the Dragon Soul Saber many times over the years, he did not dare to be careless now.
The Dragon Soul Saber was initially silent when it was in Su Zimo’s hands.
However, after Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix took over, streams of violent saber qi burst forth. Ancestral Dragon qi filled the air and the saber trembled wildly!
“Hmm?”
The expression of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix changed slightly as he hollered softly, “Silence!”
He flipped his palm and revealed his Divine Phoenix Bone. Channeling Dharmic powers, the Divine Phoenix Bone turned red and transparent instantly, as though it was burned through!
“Go!”
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix gripped the Divine Phoenix Bone and shone it towards the Dragon Soul Saber in his right hand.
Instantly, a flare burst forth from the Divine Phoenix Bone with a scorching heat that seemed like it could incinerate all living beings and landed on the Dragon Soul Saber!
Su Zimo was very familiar with the aura of the flare. It was exactly the same as the Divine Phoenix Bone in his right hand.
“Roar!”
Against the Divine Phoenix’s flames, the Dragon Soul Saber trembled. As though it was agitated, it let out a loud, furious dragon roar!
The saber qi became even stronger and the Ancestral Dragon qi was berserk with a rampant dragon might!
Apart from the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island, Mo Ying and Su Zimo, the surrounding cultivators were shocked and retreated one after another, afraid that they would be implicated.
“Is he going to fail again?”
Jing Ming’s eyes dimmed.
Jing Sheng sighed internally with a look of pity.
They were not the only ones. In the hearts of most of the cultivators from Divine Phoenix Island, although Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix could not wield the Dragon Soul Saber, he was already their young master.
All these years, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix stayed on Divine Phoenix Island and conquered places for it. He had done countless meritorious deeds and possessed immense prestige.
Up till this point of his cultivation, he had never tasted defeat among his peers and it was even easier for him to challenge those above his level.
Although the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island was a Half-Martial Ancestor, the outcome of a battle between the two of them would be indeterminate.
It was definitely not a fluke that Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix had such prestige in Divine Phoenix Island.
Therefore, many Divine Phoenix Island cultivators were indignant when they saw that he was about to lose to an outsider.
Su Zimo had a calm expression.
If he wanted to subdue the Dragon Soul Saber with the Divine Phoenix Bone, it would be extremely difficult!
That was because the bloodline of the Dragon race was not weaker than the Divine Phoenix race to begin with.
The reason why Su Zimo could make the Dragon Soul Saber submit was not because of the Divine Phoenix Bone.
It was because the Dragon Soul Saber had sensed the aura of the Dragon Phoenix in Su Zimo’s body. Although it was not obvious, it was one of the three primordial taboos!
Although this was his first time coming into contact with Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix, Su Zimo could vaguely sense an extremely terrifying power coming from the latter!
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was far from simple!
Dragon Soul Hall.
The trembling of the Dragon Soul Saber intensified, as though it could break free from the hands of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix at any moment!
“Humph!”
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix harrumphed coldly with a resolute gaze. He bit his tongue gently and spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood.
The moment the blood fell out, it was filled with a scorching aura.
The aura was not weaker than the temperature of the Divine Phoenix Bone!
Shing!
The stream of blood splashed onto the Divine Phoenix Bone and evaporated instantly.
A shuddering aura emanated from the fog, as though an extremely terrifying existence was awakening!
The surrounding cultivators were shocked and their eyes were filled with fear.
Against that aura, they actually had the urge to kneel down and kowtow!
Humans were not the only ones; the other races present, be it ancient remnant beasts or pure-blooded ferocious beasts, were filled with fear.
It was a fear that came from the depths of their bloodlines!
Su Zimo narrowed his eyes as well and his heart skipped a beat.
The moment the blood of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix fused with the Divine Phoenix Bone, his bloodline became restless!
His dragon blood boiled and the Divine Phoenix Bone burned as well!
This had never happened before.
What was even stranger was that the Dragon Soul Saber was initially struggling. However, it froze up and stopped trembling when it sensed the aura.
Even the Dragon Soul Saber seemed to be shocked by that aura!
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was delighted.
But soon, the Dragon Soul Saber trembled once more.
Clang! Clang!
Immediately after, dragon qi emanated from the Dragon Soul Saber and the phantom of an Ancestral Dragon was conjured. It soared into the skies and let out a dragon roar that penetrated metal and cracked rocks, shocking the entire place!
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix shuddered and his expression changed starkly.
The two berserk auras collided and the Divine Phoenix Bone that was in Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix’s hands was sent flying.
Without the suppression of the Divine Phoenix Bone, the Dragon Soul Saber released its might completely. Saber qi filled the air and it was extremely sharp, as though it could slice through the void!
The palm of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix that was holding the Dragon Soul Saber tore instantly and blood gushed out!
Intense pain stimulated his nerves.
However, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix grit his teeth and refused to let go. His features were contorted in pain and were squeezed together!
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island frowned and said darkly, “Heavenly Phoenix, let go!”
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix remained silent and gripped the Dragon Soul Saber still, unwilling to give up.
Buzz! Buzz!
In a wild manner, the saber qi surged upwards along the wrist of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.
Right in front of everyone, wounds appeared on the arm of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix before long and fresh blood flowed!
If this continued, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix’s entire arm would be minced into dust!
Bang!
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island waved his sleeves and released a domineering power that struck the palm of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix released his grip and the Dragon Soul Saber broke free, turning into a white cold beam of light that returned to Su Zimo instantly.
Chi!
The Dragon Soul Saber stabbed vertically into the ground in front of Su Zimo and its blade trembled!
Nobody knew what happened or why the Dragon Soul Saber that had initially gone silent suddenly broke free from the control of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.
Even Su Zimo could not understand.
But now, it was clear who won!
This time round, even the surrounding cultivators went silent.
On the other side, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix stood motionlessly with a terrible expression. His arm was slumped and was dripping with blood in a wretched manner.
Of course, such injuries were nothing to Conjoint Body Mighty Figures.
Even if his arm was snapped, it could regrow.
However, the blow he received today was way too great!
Even with his shrewdness, he could not conceal the indignance and disappointment in his heart at that moment!
None of the cultivators present knew better than him why he was defeated.
“Just a step more!”
“Just a little more!”
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix lowered his head slightly to conceal the gloominess in his eyes.
Su Zimo smiled at Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix and cupped his fists. “Thank you for giving in, Senior Heavenly Phoenix.”
Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix raised his head and smiled as well.
The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island raised his voice. “Since things have come to this, there’s no point arguing. Long Mo…”
“Island Master!”
Right then, Jing Ming could not hold it in any longer and stood out, saying in a deep voice, “The status of a young master is no small matter. Long Mo’s background is unknown. Please reconsider, Island Master.”
“Island Master, please listen to me,”
Jing Sheng bowed as well. “The young master of Divine Phoenix Island is the face of Divine Phoenix Island and his combat strength must not be weak. Otherwise, Divine Phoenix Island will be mocked by outsiders.”
