Chapter 421: Flex King Black Phoenix
Translator:Henyee Translations Editor:Henyee Translations
An Lin was not enraged in the slightest by the black phoenix's words. Instead, a cold smile began to emerge on his face. "Then what if you can't kill us with one finger? You have to pay a price for not living up to your flex, don't you?"
The black phoenix's expression faltered slightly, and he felt a hint of humiliation.
He clasped his hands behind his back and looked up into the sky with a sneer on his face. "Are you trying to goad me? Ants like you don't have the right to negotiate with me."
An Lin shook his head with a forlorn sigh. "If you don't have the strength to back up your flex, then don't say you can crush others with a single finger. Flexing without being able to back yourself up just makes you look like a stupid c*nt."
The black phoenix's gaze fell upon An Lin with rage burning in his eyes, and a devastating aura akin to that of an ancient godfiend swept toward An Lin.
An Lin unleashed his Divine Might Technique to its fullest extent and boundless divine might burst forth from his eyes as he met the black phoenix's unwavering gaze with his own.
Their eyes met and gale-force winds immediately swept up around them as thunderclaps erupted in the sky.
The black phoenix suddenly began to laugh. "Alright then! You might be more powerful than the average ant, but one of my favorite hobbies is to crush conceited ants like you. I'll say it again, I can crush you all with one finger alone. If I fail to do so, then I'll release that man who is being bound by the Demonic Sealing Vines!"
An Lin nodded with a smile. "I hope you keep your word."
An Lin then relayed their conversation to Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi.
Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi instantly turned their gazes upon the black phoenix in bewilderment.
The same thought occurred to both of them at the same time.
Is this black phoenix a stupid c*nt?
But even so, they didn't dare to get complacent. After all, they might not even be able to defeat the black phoenix even if he used just one finger, and even if they succeeded, there was no guarantee that the black phoenix would keep his promise. In any case, there was only one course of action available to them.
The black phoenix spread his wings, and black flames as dark as an all-engulfing abyss enveloped his whole body.
He raised his head and extended a finger toward the three people before him. "Now then, let's have you crushed!"
All the vital energy within a radius of a few kilometers began to surge, and an insane amount of energy began to form a vortex before converging at the black phoenix's fingertip.
Pitch-black energy was accumulating at the tip of the black phoenix's finger, and the space around him began to tremble and warp. Just the energy fluctuations radiating from his fingertip reduced the ground within a radius of a hundred meters from him into dust.
The black phoenix seemed to be quite pleased with the grave expressions that appeared on his three opponents' faces. "This technique is called the Abyssal Finger. Back when I was at the height of my powers, I used this technique to severely wound a Dark Wing Tribe Monarch."
An Lin blinked with a scornful expression. "You only managed to wound a Monarch at the height of your powers? Is that something to be boasting about? I slew a Monarch when I was just at Dao Body Stage!"
The black phoenix's expression darkened at An Lin's words, and the energy on the tip of his finger suddenly burst forth into a pitch-black streak of light. The streak of light was imbued with extremely devastating penetrative power, and heaven and earth seemed to dim slightly as if his technique had unleashed an abyss into this world.
An Lin's black brick expanded to shield himself as well as Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi.
Boom!
An earthshattering boom erupted as the streak of black light struck the black brick.
At this moment, the ground below was completely pulverized, and a huge abyss appeared in wake of the streak of black light.
Black energy radiated outward, reducing everything around him to nothingness.
"It's over." The black phoenix clasped his hands behind his back expressionlessly.
However, the world around him suddenly descended into darkness.
"Oh? Interesting." He turned and pointed his finger to a certain spot in the darkness.
Boom!
The sound of an earsplitting crash was followed by a sharp screeching noise.
Light returned to the world, and An Lin found that the blade of his Evil-Slaying Sword had clashed with the black phoenix's finger, but it was completely unable to slice into the black phoenix's skin.
Just as the two of them were caught in an impasse, a brilliant red light suddenly burst forth behind the black phoenix.
Mo Hai descended upon the black phoenix from behind and slashed his crimson saber down with all his might!
Shangguan Yi also launched an attack from another direction as her sword flashed through the air like a blue meteorite straight for the black phoenix's head.
"You three are like mere candlelight trying to compete against the light of the sun!" The black phoenix roared, and the black flames around his body burst forth to create a tornado of scorching black flames which rose straight into the clouds above!
The force behind Mo Hai's crimson saber was completely nullified by the tornado of black flames.
Shangguan Yi fared even worse as her body was swept up by the tornado, and she flew back like a cannonball, spewing blood as she went.
An Lin was also forced into retreat by the tornado of flames, but crimson feathers suddenly appeared around his body, causing the space around him to twist and warp.
The feathers converged to form an arrow with the Demonic Star Flame acting as the tip, the Great Holy Flame acting as the shaft, the Setting Moon Flame as the fletching and the Heavenly Void Flame as a suit of armor around the arrow. Thus, the Crimson God Arrow merged for the first time with the four Divine Flames!
The Crimson God Arrow shot forth, and its purple tip pierced through the air, incinerating everything in its path and leaving a trace of icy blue in its wake.
The black phoenix looked at the oncoming Crimson God Arrow with a disdainful expression. "You think such a low-level fire spell technique could break through my Dark Flame Tornado? You'll never understand what the hierarchy of flames represents! My flames are of the highest tier and are therefore immune to all fire! All other flames can only bow and kneel to my flames and..."
He didn't even get a chance to finish his sentence before a massive hole was blasted into his Dark Flame Tornado, and the arrow pierced through his chest, leaving behind a peculiar sensation which was somehow simultaneously scorching hot and icy cold at the same time...
Boom!
The arrow buried itself into the ground behind the black phoenix, creating an unfathomably deep hole.
Black blood gushed forth, and the black phoenix was stunned for a second, as if he was unable to comprehend the fact that he had just been injured.
Genuine rage appeared on the black phoenix's face for the first time as his blood dripped onto the ground.
"You dare to injure me? You're just an ant... How dare you injure me..."
"I'll kill you!" The black phoenix spread his wings and a terrifying aura burst forth from his body.
He charged toward An Lin in a streak of black light and instantly appeared right in front of An Lin before stabbing his finger forward!
His finger punctured An Lin's head and poked a massive hole into a mountain a few hundred meters away.
An Lin's body disappeared in a puff of cloud and mist.
"There's nowhere for you to run."
The black phoenix turned toward a certain direction and devastatingly powerful black flames burst forth from his fingertip.
However, right at this moment, the projection of a red phoenix suddenly appeared behind him before crashing into his body.
Boom!
This attack was imbued with extremely fearsome power and the black phoenix was immediately knocked flying!
Mo Hai gripped the Divine Phoenix Disc in his hand and continued to pour his energy into it with a determined expression on his face.
The water droplet pendant around Shangguan Yi's neck began to glow with a blinding white light as she also poured forth her energy without reserve.
A blue sword projection extended for over a kilometer and transformed the space around it in a radius of over a thousand meters into a world of snow and ice as it headed straight for the black phoenix's head.
The black phoenix gritted his teeth and raised his finger in front of himself as a circular black shield appeared in the air.
The sword projection was extremely sharp and sliced the black sheld in half before colliding with the black phoenix's finger.
The sword projection drew blood before cutting deep into the black phoenix's finger.
A light breeze blew past, and An Lin leaped out from the shadows before stabbing a sword with white streaks of wind revolving around its blade directly toward the black phoenix's heart!
An Lin's strike was as fast as lightning, giving the black phoenix no time to dodge!
A peculiar black light began to emanate from the Evil-Slaying Sword as it silently cut through the air.
Splat!
The black longsword embedded itself into the black phoenix's heart as blood sprayed forth again.
An Lin, Shangguan Yi, and Mo Hai all stared at the black phoenix with anxious expressions.
The black phoenix's expression faltered slightly, and he stared blankly at the sword protruding from his chest with a stunned expression.
He then suddenly began to laugh. "Hehe... To think that I, the mighty black phoenix, would be reduced to such a pitiful state that even a few ants can force me to such an extent...
"Do you think you've won?"
The black phoenix gripped onto the blade of the Evil-Slaying Sword, and he turned his head a hundred and eighty degrees to look at An Lin with a ruthless smile on his face. "Do you think I would die just from having my heart punctured?"
An Lin's heart thumped heavily as he looked at the vicious smile on the black phoenix's face.
The black phoenix continued to smile maliciously. "Trash like you will never understand how powerful my life force is nor will you ever be able to defeat me!"
An Lin blinked slowly. "Oh, I do understand how powerful your life force is, but why are you using your hand to grip onto my sword?
"We agreed before the battle that you would only use one finger, so isn't using your hand against the rules? Shouldn't you be letting him go now?" An Lin asked as he pointed toward Yang Yuan.
An Lin's words reverberated throughout the air and were met with a deafening silence.
Black Phoenix: "..."
The black phoenix's hand trembled slightly as he gripped onto the Evil-Slaying Sword, and he suddenly experienced an inexplicable sense of humiliation.
"Die!"
Killing intent burst forth from his eyes as he let loose an enraged cry.
The black flames around his body began to surge violently before drastically expanding outward.
Boundless black flames engulfed everything around him like a black sun enveloping a space of over a thousand feet in radius!
