Chapter 200: The Tribulation of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan
🕑 Added 2023-08-04 05:36:12 +0000 UTCHuang Tian turned around and left, leaving abruptly and bewildering everyone present.
Just moments ago, he was ready for a fierce battle, intending to wage war with the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan. But now, unexpectedly, he chose to retreat.
Everyone was astonished!
They couldn't help but exclaim, "What just happened? How could he back down like this?"
The three elders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan and their army were also taken aback.
They hadn't expected that after arriving at the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan's territory, they wouldn't engage in a full-scale battle but would instead choose to withdraw.
It was completely different from what they had imagined. Weren't they supposed to fight and completely subdue the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan before leaving? Why retreat now? Wasn't this like fleeing in the face of danger?
But the orders came from their clan leader, Huang Tian. What could they do but follow?
With confusion and bewilderment in their hearts, they turned around and left.
The arrival of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's army was magnificent, and their departure was just as grand.
They came in full force, and they left in full force, not taking a single thing with them!
...
Looking at the grand departure of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's army, Yao Xiao Tian, the leader of the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan, couldn't help but smirk.
It was not long ago that Huang Tian had been arrogant and overbearing in front of him, making Yao Xiao Tian feel insignificant and worthless.
And now?
Huang Tian could only spout a few harsh words and leave in discontent. What else could he do?
Yao Xiao Tian finally felt a sense of pride. This was the reality of "the tides of time wait for no man." The one who was once looked down upon by Huang Tian could now only utter a few threats before leaving in embarrassment.
He was nothing more than trash in Yao Xiao Tian's eyes!
...
Just as Huang Tian was about to lead the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's army to leave the Underground World, Hun Douluo and Hun Sha arrived.
Hun Sha blocked the entire path of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's army, exuding a formidable aura, and asked, "Where do you think you're going?"
His voice was like an explosion, resounding through the heavens and the earth, making everyone's eardrums ache.
"Hun Sha!"
Huang Tian recognized the person blocking their way and his pupils contracted in shock. He never expected to encounter Hun Sha, one of the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, a Seven-Star Dou Sheng at the latter stages.
It was unbelievable that he appeared here.
At this moment, Huang Tian felt fortunate that he had not taken action against the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan previously. If he had attacked before, things would have become incomprehensible.
Upon hearing the clan leader Huang Tian reveal the identity of the person in front of them, the elders and leaders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, including Feng Huang, became vigilant and looked at Hun Sha.
The reputation of the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan was significant. They were the supreme elders of the Soul Clan.
...
Hun Sha stood with his hands behind his back, looking down on Huang Tian and said, "Huang Tian, where do you think you're going?"
Huang Tian's strength as a Five-Star Dou Sheng at the latter stages was indeed formidable.
But in Hun Sha's eyes, it was nothing special. He had enough confidence to take Huang Tian down effortlessly. He believed he could suppress him within ten moves.
"Huh..."
Huang Tian let out a long sigh and said, "Senior Hun Sha, this is a misunderstanding! We'll leave immediately!"
If it were Hun Mie Sheng, Huang Tian wouldn't be afraid at all and wouldn't lower his stance like this.
But the one who appeared was Hun Sha, one of the Four Demon Saints, who had enough strength to suppress him. He had no choice but to lower his stance. After all, his strength was inferior to Hun Sha's.
In this world, the strong were always respected. Strength was everything, and a powerful fist was the key. Huang Tian couldn't match up to Hun Sha in this regard.
Hun Sha said, "Misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding between us!"
His words contained a hint of coldness!
Hun Sha continued, "Huang Tian, here's your chance. I can let your army of Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan leave completely, but you must stay behind. Or you all stay. What do you think?"
Huang Tian asked weakly, "Senior Hun Sha, why do you want me to stay?"
Hun Sha rarely wasted words with Huang Tian. He replied directly, "The clan leader is missing a mount, and I'm honored to inform you that the clan leader has chosen you."
"What do you think about that?"
Hun Sha looked at Huang Tian, his eyes tinged with mockery. He didn't regard Huang Tian highly. Huang Tian was the clan leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, and his status was noble, but so what?
This continent respected strength above all else.
What could one's status represent?
A noble status without sufficient strength was meaningless!
...
At first, Huang Tian's face still carried a slight smile, but as Hun Sha's words fell, the smile gradually froze, and he stood still.
A few seconds later, Huang Tian finally came to his senses.
The frozen smile gradually disappeared, and his face became unpleasant.
Hun Sha appearing here and saying such things... This had undoubtedly plunged Huang Tian into a difficult situation.
Hun Sha didn't regard him highly at all, nor did he have any regard for the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan. It was a blatant humiliation.
He was the leader of a clan.
The clan leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
A figure on par with the supreme beings of the Monster Beast World.
If they strictly compared their status, it was enough to be mentioned in the same breath as Hun Tiandi.
Yet, they wanted him, the leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, the supreme being of the Monster Beast World, to become the mount of Hun Tiandi, a mere means of transportation.
Seriously?
This was an insult to his dignity.
What an immense face Hun Tiandi has!
It was unimaginable!
Huang Tian's expression turned ugly.
The elders of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan behind him also wore unpleasant expressions, and the army behind them was even worse! Their expressions were at the peak of unpleasantness!
This was a humiliation to their Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
An outright humiliation!
It was as if they were pressing the face of their Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan onto the ground and rubbing it. This was unbearable!
...
Naturally, Hun Sha noticed the expressions of Huang Tian and the others. He held his hands behind his back, and an imposing aura enveloped him. Then, a large amount of black mist appeared behind him.
In an instant, the black mist turned into a chaotic force, filling the heavens and earth, eerie and mysterious.
Hun Sha said, "What? Unwilling?"
"Or do you think that our clan leader isn't qualified enough?"
Whoosh!
As Hun Sha's voice fell, a terrifying aura burst forth from him, transforming into a storm and rushing toward Huang Tian and the rest of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
One man faced a hundred thousand troops of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, surrounding Huang Tian, the clan leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
Hun Sha's imposing aura remained undiminished.
He exuded a domineering presence.
The terrifying aura made them involuntarily step back!
One man could rival a million!
"Going too far! Your Soul Clan has gone too far!" The Elder Feng Huang of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan stepped forward, his face unpleasant as he roared at Hun Sha.
"Going too far?" Hun Sha held his hands behind his back and looked at Feng Huang. "I'm going too far? What can you do about it?"
As he spoke, Hun Sha raised his hand and pointed.
Swoosh!
A black beam of light shot toward Feng Huang and instantly pierced through his forehead. Feng Huang fell, devoid of any vitality.
With effortless ease, Hun Sha resolved the situation, and he looked at Feng Huang indifferently, saying, "When the master speaks, do ants dare to speak up?"
"Huang Tian, I've dealt with this annoying pest for you. You shouldn't blame me, right?"
"You..."
Feng Huang fell too quickly; it was too abrupt. He had no time to react. When he finally reacted, Feng Huang had already lost all signs of life.
His body fell from the void.
At this moment, the world fell silent.
Silence!
A dreadful silence!
Time seemed to freeze in this moment!
Feng Huang was a Three-Star Dou Sheng.
Yet, he fell silently and without a trace.
This was... If not seen with one's own eyes, it would be difficult to believe.
When Hun Sha's voice sounded, Huang Tian gradually regained his senses. His gaze towards Hun Sha was filled with fear, as if he was looking at a divine being.
Hun Sha was able to resolve Feng Huang silently and effortlessly.
If he wanted to deal with Huang Tian?
It probably wouldn't be a problem either!
More and more members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan gathered around, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Hun Sha.
...
Hun Sha continued, "Huang Tian, how are you thinking about it? Are you going to obediently come back with me? Or do I have to take action and bring you back myself? Don't worry, I won't kill you, but I can't guarantee the safety of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan behind you."
"So, Clan Leader Huang Tian, you better think it through!"
"Will you come with me voluntarily, or do I have to personally intervene?"
"My patience is limited, and I won't give you enough time to think. I'll count to three, and if you don't answer, I'll take action."
"One..."
As Hun Sha's voice rang out again, the atmosphere between heaven and earth became oppressive.
There was not a single sound, only a dreadful silence to the extreme!
"Two..."
...
Huang Tian clenched his fists, his expression extremely ugly. The members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan behind him were also tense at this moment.
Their energy surged to the limit, ready to strike at any moment, not seeking survival, just hoping not to fall silently and without a trace.
"Three!"
As Hun Sha's voice fell, he took a step forward and said, "Huang Tian, you have refused my goodwill!"
"Next, it's time for the hunt."
Whoosh!
Hun Sha's aura grew stronger and stronger. He raised his hand, palm facing upward, aimed at the sky.
The chaotic sky.
Whoosh!
Above the chaotic sky, a giant sword condensed, its blade pointed at Huang Tian and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
"Slash!"
Hun Sha lightly shouted, his hand clenched into a fist. The giant sword fell, carrying terrifying power.
"Everyone, form a defensive formation!"
Huang Tian originally held onto a bit of hope that Hun Sha wouldn't act.
But now... it seemed he had bet wrong.
Hun Sha made a move.
Huang Tian didn't hesitate and quickly yelled out.
Whoosh!
One hundred thousand members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan immediately formed a defensive formation.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, along with their two Dou Sheng elders, frantically manipulated their Dou Qi to form a large formation, which transformed into a barrier, a defensive shield.
Boom!
Roar!
Hun Sha's giant sword descended.
In that moment, a thunderous roar echoed, causing the heavens and earth to tremble slightly. The force was astonishing!
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan managed to withstand the attack.
The giant sword dissipated, and the power returned to the heavens and earth, replenishing the energy lost. Thus, the cycle continued, and life persisted!
Hun Sha's expression remained unchanged, and he muttered, "You managed to block one strike."
"How many more strikes can you withstand?"
As Hun Sha's voice fell, above their heads, on the sky, one terrifying giant sword after another appeared, each blade emitting a chilling light.
Boom!
Roar!
Rumble!
...
One after another, the giant swords fell.
With each strike, another blade would manifest in the sky.
With every falling blade, life persisted!
The momentum was immense!
...
The faces of Huang Tian and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, who were operating the formation, gradually turned grim. The continuous onslaught of strikes was quickly breaking their formation.
When the formation collapsed, and the giant swords fell upon them, it was hard to imagine the terrifying power contained in those blades. What would happen to them then?
They would probably suffer heavy losses.
And it was just a simple maneuver for Hun Sha!
...
Blood trickled down the corner of Huang Tian's mouth, and he said, "Lord Hun Sha, I'm willing to surrender!"
The last trace of Huang Tian's hope had vanished completely. His only priority now was to preserve the elite members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
If they were to perish here, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, one of the Three Supreme Clans in the Beast World, would almost certainly lose its position. Moreover, they would become a target of human hunting once they lost a significant portion of their power.
After all, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan was full of valuable treasures!
Therefore, Huang Tian had no choice at the moment.
Other than surrender, he had no other option.
Though becoming someone else's mount was a humiliating matter, it depended on who that someone was.
Hun Tiandi.
The Leader of the Soul Clan.
Having a high possibility of becoming a Dou Di and becoming a Dou Di's mount, it is not disgraceful!
...
Upon hearing Huang Tian's words, Hun Sha's lips curled up into a faint cold smile.
He said, "Huang Tian, do you realize your surrender comes a little too late now? Do you think I was joking with my previous words? Your choice comes with a price, understand?"
Hun Sha made his move again.
The incessantly falling giant swords disappeared from the sky, and a massive palm print emerged from the chaotic heavens.
This giant palm print carried a terrifying aura, and when it appeared, the power in the heavens and earth became restless.
Hun Sha was getting serious now.
He was no longer in the mood to play around.
He wanted to make a genuine move and resolve the current situation once and for all!
A cold smile emerged on Hun Sha's lips, a smile that frightened people, as if it came from the depths of hell, from a devil's grin!
"Next, experience the pressure of impending death!" Hun Sha's voice fell.
The massive palm print descended, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
The enormous palm enveloped the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's army, rendering them tiny and insignificant like ants under its pressure.
"Is this the end?" Huang Tian looked up at the descending giant palm print, feeling a sense of despair and helplessness, overwhelmed by regret.
Huang Tian couldn't understand why he had to attack the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan.
Why?
