Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1281 Crisis (6)

All of a sudden, a scarlet flame burst out, and two lines of narrow golden light suddenly appeared in the sky above the Divine Phoenix Palace. Immediately after, the two thin lines of golden luminance slowly opened like a pair of slightly narrowed eyes.

Hui Cai's entire body trembled at the emergence of the pair of golden eyes. His face went stiff as he uttered in disbelief. "You are… The Divine Phoenix God? H-How could it be possible? Aren't you already dead?"

The demise of the Divine Phoenix God Clan spread throughout the Divine Realm and the Devil Realm thousands of years ago. Countless people flipped the entire world to look for a remnant of the Divine Phoenix clansmen, but not a single trace could be found.

Who would have thought that the Divine Phoenix God was actually hiding in this lower world!?

"And here I thought, why does the air contaminate with a disgusting smell recently. It turns out you, the puny devil, has crossed over." The Divine Phoenix said coldly.

Before Hui Cai could do anything, a streak of scarlet flame shot down from the sky, wrapping and burning him into ashes. He couldn't even let out a scream.

The Divine Phoenix stared at Hui Cai's ashes briefly and muttered to herself. "It finally comes, huh?"

***

At the spatial tunnel, countless devils gathered around the entrance, seemingly waiting for someone.

Among them, a dignified man in black stood calmly in front of everyone. From the way the other devils looked at him, it was indicated he had the highest status here.

This person was the head of the Blood Fiend Devil Clan, Xue Jiang.

The Blood Fiend Devil Clan was considered a middle-level force inside the Great Devil Realm. They were ordered to come here by the third-ranked Great Devil, Mo Yan. Their mission was to obtain the Beyond Heaven King's secrets.

"Master, why don't we start it before others come?" A tall man in the crowd asked.

Xue Jiang glanced at him and said calmly. "Do you want to become cannon fodder that much?"

His words immediately rendered the tall man speechless.

He said further. "This world is not ordinary as it appears to be. There are many hidden experts here."

When he spoke this, everyone immediately understood. Wouldn't it be better to wait for the other clans to come and let them be a frontline army?

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Xue Jiang's expression changed as he perceived something. His eyes widened in astonishment for a moment before calming down.

"God Emperor's avatar actually…." Xue Jiang muttered to himself. He took a deep breath and said. "Sure enough. My decision is correct. There are too many uncertain factors here."

Earlier, he suddenly discovered the aura of Mo Tian's avatar had vanished entirely. The only possibility was that he was killed thoroughly.

Although Mo Tian's avatar wasn't strong, he still possessed Mo Tian's knowledge. It wasn't easy for anyone to kill him if he wanted to run.

Could there be an existence on the Divine King's level here?

Xue Jiang himself was a first-level Divine King, but he was certain that he couldn't kill Mo Tian's avatar. In his opinion, the one who killed Mo Tian's avatar must be at least the peak level of the Divine King or higher.

Before thinking further, he suddenly saw Liang Ba and the burly man rush over as if they were running from something.

Xue Jiang looked at them and asked. "What's going on?"

The burly man hurriedly replied. "Reporting to Master. We have encountered a terrifying existence on the Eastern Continent. She is a true spirit."

"A true spirit?" Xue Jiang's eyes brightened slightly. A true spirit wasn't rare, but one that could take a human shape was entirely different. As long as he captured her, he could use her to strengthen himself.

The burly man hesitated briefly and said. "Master, I believe her strength is above the Divine King Realm."

"What?" Xue Jiang was taken aback. "Are you sure?"

The burly man nodded heavily. "There's no mistake. However, she seemed to restrain her power a lot."

Xue Jiang frowned deeply. This was too tricky.

At this moment, a young man rushed in and hurriedly said. "Reporting to Master. Hui Cai was killed by the Divine Phoenix God."

"What did you say? The Divine Phoenix God?" Xue Jiang couldn't believe his ears. "Are you sure it's the Divine Phoenix God? How could it appear here?"

"Yes, Master. You can ask our people on the Southern Continent. They all have seen it." The young man replied firmly.

Xue Jiang took a few deep breaths to calm down. Even though he was aware of terrifying existences here, the Divine Phoenix God was completely out of his expectation.

"No. We cannot do it." Xue Jiang said solemnly before performing complicated hand seals.

"Lord Jun, we have an unexpected situation here…."

After finished reporting, a cold female voice suddenly resounded in Xue Jiang's mind. "There's no need to pay attention to them. Someone will deal with them. Your mission is the same. Taking the Beyond Heaven King's secrets back. It's better to capture his successor alive."

"Understood." Xue Jiang replied respectfully.

Rumble—

Suddenly, the spatial tunnel shook, and a dense devilish aura immediately poured out.

The devilish aura twisted and turned before condensing into a demonic man with a black horn and a pair of wings.

Xue Jiang's expression changed drastically when he saw this person. He quickly knelt down and said respectfully. "Lowly devil Xue Jiang greets Lord Lou."

Seeing Xue Jiang like this, everyone immediately followed.

The demonic man was no other than Mo Tian's servant, Lou Jie.

Lou Jie completely ignored everyone. His Divine Sense spread out, sweeping the entire Azure World.

"Divine Emperor? No wonder…" Lou Jie spoke to himself upon discovering Yun Xia's aura.

Xue Jie shuddered inwardly when he heard this. There was actually a Divine Emperor here!?

Thankfully, he wasn't impulsive and hurriedly rushed out. It would be no different from courting death by then.

Lou Jie glanced at Xue Jie and asked. "Who sent you here?"

"Reporting to Lord Lou. I was ordered by Lord Jun to come here." Xue Jie replied respectfully with his head lowered.

"Jun Rong…" Lou Jie didn't seem to be surprised much.

Rumble—

Suddenly, the spatial tunnel shook again, and this time, countless figures poured out and quickly filled the entire area.

The main force of the Great Devil Realm had finally come!
