Chapter 553 - Ancient Aristocratic Family
The arrival of the Primordial Soaring Serpent shocked the world!
Gulp! Gulp!
The Primordial Soaring Serpent opened its mouth widely and devoured huge mouthfuls of lava.
The burning lava soared into the air, forming a red river stream that entered the mouth of the Primordial Soaring Serpent continuously.
As the Primordial Soaring Serpent drank the lava, its aura turned even more terrifying.
The scales on the serpent became brighter and shone with a blinding shade of scarlet that resembled metal plates that were heated red!
“Kill!”
Taba Feng hollered.
With a grim expression, Wang Yan said darkly, “He is only at early-stage Golden Core realm at the end of the day. If we join forces, he won’t be able to deal with us!”
“Everyone, don’t hold anything back anymore at this point!”
Murong Wushuang declared loudly, “That person once entered the Human Emperor’s Palace and is the successor of Divine Phoenix Island. He definitely has tons of treasures in his possession. We’ll only stand a chance after killing him!”
Thousands of paragons released their Golden Core phenomenons and rushed over.
A single Golden Core phenomenon may not be able to pose a threat to the Primordial Soaring Serpent.
However, the combined release of thousands of Golden Core phenomenons was enough to destroy any expert of the Golden Core realm, even if only a rare few of them were ancient phenomenons or had spots on the Phenomenon Ranking!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
There were constant collisions between the phenomenons!
Instantly, the Golden Core phenomenon behind Su Zimo swayed and even revealed illusions!
The surrounding Golden Core phenomenons continued clashing like a flood that did not know of fatigue.
Psst! Psst!
The Primordial Soaring Serpent in the void was enraged and raised its head, letting out a slithering sound as it inhaled and exhaled.
This was only a phenomenon and wasn’t material.
However, the Primordial Soaring Serpent retained its memories and dignity from the primordial era.
It was a god of the flames!
Gods were dignified and could not endure the provocations of such puny ants!
Swoosh!
The Primordial Soaring Serpent fanned the flames with its wings and its eyes spewed fire. Opening its blood-red mouth, it spat out a stream of scorching lava at a group of paragons!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Accompanied by loud sounds, countless Golden Core phenomenons shattered and many Golden Cores were devoured directly by the steaming lava, turning into ashes without corpses.
“Ah! Ah! Ahhhh!”
A series of tragic, shuddering wails sounded.
Sensing that something was wrong with the situation, some of the cultivators retreated instantly.
However, most of them were sucked in by the lava pool the moment their Golden Core phenomenons shattered. The more they struggled, the deeper they sank and eventually, they were drowned.
The paragons of the Ten Upper Sects and the four gentry clans were the only ones who could defend against the full-powered attack of the Primordial Soaring Serpent.
Even so, for something like Wang Yan’s Raging City Blaze, its ancient city walls were already filled with cracks and were on the brink of collapse.
In the Golden Core phenomenon summoned by Stellar Luna Sect’s paragon, most of the night had already faded and countless stars fell.
Of Seven Kills Sect’s Seven Kills Blood Letters, only a single character remained and it was struggling to hang on.
Of course, after that burst, the Primordial Soaring Serpent’s radiance faded as well.
Su Zimo shifted his gaze and sped out of the palace’s outer perimeter with the saber in his hands.
This was not a place where he should linger!
The longer he stayed here, the more danger he would feel in his heart.
“Go!”
Su Zimo pointed forward.
The Primordial Soaring Serpent behind him soared up with its body covered in flames, lunging towards Wang Yan who was in its path ahead with a murderous aura!
Boom!
Wang Yan grit his teeth and controlled the ancient city, smashing it heavily against the Primordial Soaring Serpent’s head.
Opening its mouth widely, the Primordial Soaring Serpent devoured the entire blazing city whole!
“Pfft!”
Wang Yan’s expression changed countless times before finally turning pale as a sheet and spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
A month ago, his Golden Core phenomenon was suppressed by the Primordial Divine Turtle.
A month later, it was destroyed by the Primordial Soaring Serpent.
Ranked 89 on the Phenomenon Ranking, Raging City Blazes was considered as a top-tier Golden Core phenomenon in the North Region.
However, Wang Yan received blows consecutively.
He endured the pain of his body and shifted his steps, dodging to the side.
Although he knew that Su Zimo’s Primordial Soaring Serpent could not hold out for much longer, he also knew that he truly had no way of defending against it and could only allow Su Zimo to leave!
“That’s just him struggling at the end of the road!”
Seven Kills Sect’s paragon arrived before Su Zimo in a flash and the bloody word character behind him turned more grisly and brighter!
The Primordial Soaring Serpent swayed its massive tail and whipped through the air, slamming against the bloody word character like a thick steel whip.
Piak!
The blood word character was destroyed and turned into a blood mist.
As though he was struck by lightning, Seven Kills Sect’s paragon no longer dared to block and dodged to the side at an extremely fast speed!
Su Zimo sneered and his eyes flashed with a cold glint.
Swash!
Swinging his arm in reverse, Su Zimo tossed out his saber and it turned into a streak of light, stabbing into the Seven Kills Sect’s paragon’s chest!
“Pfft!”
The saber penetrated his body and pierced into a stone pillar in the underground palace.
Its blade quivered and blood dripped from it endlessly – Seven Kills Sect’s paragon was already thoroughly dead!
Su Zimo had a few other similar sabers of that grade in his storage bag so he did not care about it at all.
Apart from Dugu Jian who was watching coldly from the sidelines, the other 13 of the paragons from the Ten Upper Sects and four gentry clans were already mostly killed by Su Zimo.
They were either dead or injured.
After killing Seven Kills Sect’s paragon, nobody dared to stand in Su Zimo’s way.
Finally, his vision cleared up.
“Hahahaha!”
Su Zimo reared his head and laughed into the air while speeding out of the palace.
It was dead silent all around the palace.
The paragons that managed to survive such as Wang Yan and Murong Wushuang had grim expressions on their faces.
Even the cocky Taba Feng was silent. Although his Golden Core phenomenon was still gathering behind him, it no longer had any fierceness to it and was dark and dull.
Just like that, the paragons of the North Region gathered and watched helplessly as the Vermilion Fruit was snatched before their very eyes by the successor of Divine Phoenix Island.
If word of this were to get out, all the factions of the North Region would turn into the laughingstock of the entire cultivation world!
“It’s over just like that?”
Bai Yuhan murmured to herself as she looked at everything squarely.
Mu Dongqing sighed gently.
Both of them had witnessed everything.
The initial fervor when the paragons of the North Region gathered with their raring battle intents up till their current dejectedness after being overwhelmed by the successor of Divine Phoenix Island singlehandedly!
In the end, there was an outcome to the fight for the Vermilion Fruit.
Mu Dongqing mumbled, “Perhaps the only way for this man to be suppressed is if the paragons of the nine immortal sects, seven fiend sects and six Buddhist monasteries are present.”
“However, I heard that this monster incarnate of Divine Phoenix Island once defeated the paragons of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects beneath the Human Emperor’s Palace,” Bai Yuhan frowned and replied.
“Things are different now,”
Mu Dongqing shook his head. “Don’t forget that the monster incarnate of Divine Phoenix Island is only at early-stage Golden Core realm right now!”
Just as Su Zimo was about to rush out of the palace’s exit, a deafening roar of a demon beast sounded, threatening to devour the entire world!
“Roar!”
A humongous ferocious beast barged in. It had the head of a wyrm, body of a tiger, tail of a snake and extremely sharp teeth with saliva drooling from its mouth. Its fangs shone sinisterly and it was extremely shuddering!
Tiger wyrm!
It was one of the fiercest types of ancient remnant beasts with the bloodline of a wyrm. After cultivation, it can revert to its ancestry and transform into an actual wyrm before growing into a ferocious beast!
As for wyrms, they had the chance of transforming into dragons!
What was even more terrifying was that a man was riding on that tiger wyrm!
When they saw the badge on the man’s waist, the expressions of Murong Wushuang and the others changed and they exclaimed, “The ancient aristocratic family, Duanmu!”
