Capítulo 267: Praying for the Ancestor's Blessing!
Above Phoenix Nest Mountain, three figures hovered in the sky, their imposing auras pressing down in all directions. The arrival of Gu Fei, Zi Yan, and Cai Lin threw the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe into panic. The tribe members were filled with fear and uncertainty, unsure of how to respond to this sudden crisis.
Inside a magnificent palace at the heart of the tribe's territory, three figures stood solemnly, discussing strategies.
"Elder Sister, now that the tribe leader is dead, and Gu Fei, along with the experts from the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe and the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, have come to attack, what should we do?" Kun Huang and Ying Huang looked anxiously at the red-robed woman, their eyes filled with worry.
"The only option left is to pray for the protection of our ancestor," Feng Huang said, her beautiful face tinged with concern. She sighed, her eyes flashing with determination.
After speaking, she quickly formed a series of complex hand seals with her slender fingers. As her hand seals changed, a drop of golden blood floated from her body, slowly rising into the air.
Seeing this, Kun Huang and Ying Huang did not hesitate. They, too, began forming seals, each releasing a drop of golden blood that joined with hers.
The three drops of golden blood slowly rotated in the air, emitting a dazzling golden light that grew more intense, as if it would turn the entire sky golden.
Meanwhile, in a corner of Phoenix Nest Mountain, inside a wooden cage atop a large phoenix tree, a commotion stirred.
"What's happening? Are they summoning the ancestor?" Feng Qing'er, her eyes full of surprise, peered through the gaps in the cage, gazing at the strange scene in the sky.
As a talented member of the tribe, Feng Qing'er should have enjoyed the tribe's high treatment and nurturing. However, because of Jiu Feng's death, she was implicated. Without distinguishing right from wrong, the elders imprisoned her and a group of others here.
To make matters worse, the elders planned to sacrifice all of them in a live ritual for Jiu Feng, a decision that made Feng Qing'er lose all faith in the tribe's leadership.
The other prisoners in the cage were also nervously watching the sky, their faces filled with anxiety and confusion.
"Are they really going to summon the ancestor?" a young tribesman muttered, his voice full of hope and fear.
Feng Qing'er gently shook her head, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. "Even if they summon the ancestor's shadow, I doubt it will change anything."
Just then, the sky over Phoenix Nest Mountain suddenly changed color!
"What's happening?"
Many tribesmen looked up to see the three golden drops of blood explode with blinding light, instantly forming a massive golden barrier that enveloped the entire mountain.
A piercing, majestic cry shattered the silence, a sound so powerful it shook the very souls of those who heard it. In the midst of the deafening cry, a massive ancient phoenix statue began to take shape.
This statue glowed with golden light, exuding an aura of supreme majesty. Its massive wings, folded like those of a Kunpeng, seemed ready to spread wide and cover the entire sky.
The wings, glowing brilliantly, overlapped and radiated golden light. They resembled enormous oars, casting a vast golden glow over the area. It looked as if the entire Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe was being protected within a giant golden bell.
This awe-inspiring scene shocked everyone on Phoenix Nest Mountain. Many tribesmen fell to their knees, worshipping the ancient phoenix statue in the sky.
"The ancestor has manifested!"
"Our tribe is saved!"
Cheers of joy echoed across the mountain, as the tribe members' despair was replaced by renewed hope.
However, outside the mountain, Gu Fei and his companions watched the scene with varying expressions.
"Who would have thought they had such deep reserves?" Gu Fei remarked, slightly surprised. "This ancient Heaven Phoenix shadow is stronger than the one from before."
"What's the big deal? I can shatter this little chicken in three moves," Zi Yan scoffed, her eyes gleaming with battle intent.
As she finished speaking, her body underwent a drastic transformation, turning into a massive dragon phoenix, stretching thousands of feet in length.
Her form, with the body of a dragon and the wings of a phoenix, exuded an aura so overwhelming that it struck fear into the hearts of many on Phoenix Nest Mountain. Many of the tribe members were so terrified that they collapsed, trembling uncontrollably.
"Is that the legendary ancient dragon phoenix?"
"Heavens, do we really have any hope against such a mighty being?"
The cheers from the tribesmen abruptly ceased, replaced by an overwhelming sense of fear and despair.
In the next moment, the massive ancient phoenix statue in the sky let out another deafening cry.
Golden light exploded again, sending waves of golden energy rippling outward.
"Boom!"
Zi Yan's enormous dragon phoenix body was pushed back slightly by the force. A hint of surprise flickered in her purple-golden eyes.
"Interesting."
With a swift motion, Zi Yan lunged forward, her gigantic dragon claws striking at the ancient phoenix statue.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion followed as golden and purple-golden energies collided in the sky, creating ripples of energy.
Even the ancient phoenix statue trembled slightly from the impact, taking some time to stabilize before emitting another long cry.
"Boom! Boom!"
The battle between Zi Yan and the phoenix shadow intensified. Each collision shook the heavens and the earth, causing the entire mountain range to tremble violently.
But after just three or four rounds, the once mighty ancient phoenix shadow began to crack. Golden light leaked from the fissures, and the statue appeared on the verge of collapse.
"This... this can't be happening!"
"The ancestor's shadow... it's losing!"
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe members watched in disbelief, their faces filled with despair.
With a crisp "crack," the massive phoenix shadow shattered completely. Countless golden fragments scattered across the sky, slowly fading away.
The golden barrier protecting Phoenix Nest Mountain also shattered, the pieces falling like raindrops. With that, the tribe was left utterly defenseless.
Feng Huang and the others, pale as ghosts, looked up at the three figures in the sky. Her beautiful eyes were filled with sorrow and despair.
"Young Master, must you really annihilate us?" Feng Huang's voice trembled as she spoke.
For someone of her status to address Gu Fei in this way, it was clear she had lowered herself to the extreme, struggling to maintain a final shred of dignity.
Looking down at her from above, Gu Fei's gaze was cold and without mercy. "Did you ever consider the consequences when you set yourselves on this path?"
She trembled at his words, her heart filled with hopelessness.
