Everyone stared at the slender figure in shock. From within, they suddenly sensed an indescribable, terrifying pressure. The Ancient Sky Phoenix's previous pressure was undoubtedly far inferior to this.
And the facts before them proved that the Grand Void Ancient Dragon's Ancestral Spirit seemed even more powerful.
"I never imagined that the Grand Void Dragon and the Ancient Sky Phoenix, so many years after their demise, still possessed such terrifying power. In life, they must have been Dou Sheng-level beings. Why did such powerful beings perish in the ruins? Perhaps the owner of these ruins is even more powerful than we imagined. That heavenly-level fighting technique so widely rumored..."
The old ghostly monster, stunned by his blind spot, breathed slightly faster.
If everything was as he suspected, then the Nine Netherworld Python clan's false information was highly plausible!
"Grand Void Ancient Dragon!"
Huang Xuan and the others, who had evacuated the scene, quickly came to Feng Qing'er's side. Looking across at Zi Yan, his expression was sullen, his eyes gleaming with murderous intent.
However, contrary to this, the group's steps unconsciously retreated, driven by deep-seated fear.
At this point, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Ancestral Soul was undoubtedly more powerful than the Ancient Sky Phoenix Ancestral Soul, and Zi Yan was no longer in her original state, practically in her infancy.
Zi Yan's current strength rivaled theirs, and she was bound to unleash the Ancestral Soul's might to a greater degree than Feng Qing'er.
This situation, compounded by misfortunes, had already made Huang Xuan and his group consider retreating.
After all, continuing the fight could mean death!
The thought of missing out on the Dragon and Phoenix Origin Fruit filled them with a deep sense of unease. Was there truly no chance for the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan to recover?
While they hesitated, Zi Yan had already stepped forward, her pretty face expressionless, as if she were confronting not just a few people, but just a few corpses.
The moment Feng Qing'er attacked Queen Medusa, she had already sealed her fate; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she had touched a reverse scale.
Zi Yan may have been cheerful and cheerful on a daily basis, but in her heart, if it came down to closeness, Chen Guan and Queen Medusa were definitely second to none. In some ways, she even considered them more important than the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.
"The Celestial Demon Phoenix Clan must be annihilated!"
The calm voice, like the decree of the god of death, left no room for doubt.
Huang Xuan and his group's retreating pace unconsciously quickened, their faces changing dramatically.
"Qing'er, stop her!"
At this moment, Zi Yan, blessed by the ancestral spirit, seemed even more terrifying than the Nine-Star Dou Zun elder. Only Feng Qing'er, similarly blessed by the ancestral spirit, could possibly hold her off.
Hearing Huang Xuan's shout, Feng Qing'er's face froze. She glanced back at these usually arrogant elders, unable to articulate the feeling within her.
Taking a deep breath, Feng Qing'er finally obeyed the elder's orders, her face solemn.
With every step, Feng Qing'er's expression grew more icy. To confront the formidable foe, she harnessed the power of the Celestial Phoenix Ancestral Soul to the utmost. With its aid, she no longer felt any fear.
It felt as if Feng Qing'er had vanished, and standing there was the incarnation of the ancient Celestial Phoenix!
In the next instant, Feng Qing'er seized the initiative, clenching her palms. A brilliant golden light surged from within her body, and she launched a powerful punch.
Only a clear phoenix cry echoed, and a golden Celestial Phoenix quickly took shape. With a flutter of its massive wings, the entire space shook, as if poised to collapse. The scene was terrifying. The
golden Celestial Phoenix took shape, and with a flutter of its wings, it swept towards Zi Yan, obscuring the sky and sun. Under its immense shadow, even those not directly targeted felt an overwhelming sense of insignificance.
Even the Nine-Star Dou Zun elder felt insignificant.
This power was simply too overwhelming!
Yet, facing such a terrifying scene, Zi Yan showed no sign of panic. She slowly took two steps forward, a noble purple light emanating from her body. She then extended her jade hand and fiercely grasped the massive golden phoenix through the air!
With this grasp, everyone felt the world dim. The already weakened void finally collapsed at that moment!
A vast, pitch-black void, hundreds of feet across, appeared in the sky. The darkness, so deep it could devour even the soul, chilled everyone to the bone.
"Cry!"
Zi Yan's palm strike was like a mountain falling down, trapping the golden phoenix within the collapsing space. The phoenix struggled mightily, radiating brilliant golden light like the sun, yet it could not break free.
"Sacrifice with my blood!"
Sensing the phoenix's predicament, Feng Qing'er's face paled, and a mouthful of purplish blood spurted out.
This mouthful of blood pierced through space, staining the golden phoenix's body in the blink of an eye.
The sudden surge of blood power, like adding fuel to a smoldering bonfire, caused the golden phoenix's inner light to suddenly flare up.
Brilliantly, its wings flapped, and it broke free from the collapsing space, transforming into a sky-high golden light that fiercely shot towards Zi Yan.
Facing the golden phoenix, which had escaped the collapsing space, Zi Yan remained unfazed, a hint of contempt curling her lips as she extended her jade hand once more.
Instantly, a massive pillar of purple light erupted from her palm with a whistling sound. The light twisted and swiftly transformed into an immensely massive Taixu Ancient Dragon, hundreds of feet taller than the golden phoenix!
The Taixu Ancient Dragon roared to the sky, then, with its fangs and claws bared, clashed fiercely with the golden phoenix. Its body twisted like a giant python, tightly entangling the golden phoenix's body.

"Shatter!"
Zi Yan's face was icy cold. She spread her delicate hands, then suddenly clenched them fiercely!
"Crack!"
As her hand grasped, the ancient dragon's massive body twisted violently. With a terrifying force capable of annihilating heaven and earth, it shattered the seemingly invincible Golden Phoenix, transforming it into scattered balls of golden light.
Everyone shuddered at the sight, horrified.
Chen Guan's heart burned with excitement, yet he was unaware that a faint, noble purple light emanated from his own brow. It flickered, as if applauding Zi Yan.
"Puff!"
The Golden Phoenix shattered, and Feng Qing'er's cheeks paled instantly. She spat out a mouthful of blood, staggering back as if struck by lightning. The golden light in her eyes quickly faded, and the power of the ancestral soul vanished with the speed of lightning.
Feng Qing'er, the "host," also rapidly withered and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath like a dying person.
"The ancestral soul has been completely shattered!"
"Grand Void Ancient Dragon, are you going to kill us all?"
Seeing Zi Yan approaching, Huang Xuan and his companions still had some sense of conscience. Horrified, they all blocked Feng Qing'er's path.
However, their words seemed rather childish.
For countless years, the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan had resented the Grand Void Ancient Dragon Clan. After the Grand Void Ancient Dragon Clan retreated to Dragon Island and rarely appeared, the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan assumed that this supreme demonic beast clan was nothing special, and that they could certainly defeat it.
But upon actually confronting the Grand Void Ancient Dragon, everything changed...
The bloody reality before them mercilessly shattered their illusions.
The ancestral soul, once so famously invincible in their ancestral homeland, had finally been summoned by Feng Qing'er, only to suffer such a crushing defeat in the blink of an eye.
They wanted to retreat, but looking at Zi Yan's icy expression, as if divinely empowered, it was clear that without her permission, there was no way they could escape unscathed.
Zi Yan paused at the childish words of Huang Xuan and the others. Then, in a flash, she appeared high in the sky, looking down from above, as if she were offering a final gift of mercy to a group of ants.
"You, destroy yourselves."
These emotionless words completely shattered the hopes of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan.
Huang Xuan and the white-haired man exchanged a glance, a frenzy on both their faces.
With no way out, they had no choice but to fight to the bitter end!
Self-destruction was impossible!
"Die!"
"Everyone, let's vent our anger together! With her strength, she won't be able to maintain her ancestral spirit for long!"
Without further ado, Huang Xuan and the white-haired man led the charge, charging towards Zi Yan like moths to a flame.
The leaders of the Earth Tiger and Silver Moon Wolf Clan hesitated for a moment before following closely.
As subordinate tribes, they now had no way out.
Even if they stood by and surrendered now, and Zi Yan mercifully spared them, they would still face the wrath of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan upon their return.
The weak have no human rights!
Seeing the four Dou Zun warriors approaching, Xiao Yixian and the others were about to rush to their aid, but Zi Yan's reassuring gaze halted their movements.
Above, Chen Guan, however, was unfazed. Even he hadn't expected Zi Yan, with her current strength, to wield the power of her Ancestral Soul to such an extent.
In front of the Taixu Ancient Dragon's Ancestral Soul, the four Dou Zun were nothing more than a mere sight.
At this moment, there was no need to worry; just watch this girl perform.
Chen Guan remained remarkably calm, but Zi Yan's actions were even more brazen than he had anticipated.
Four Dou Zun, retreating in a snap!
The massive Taixu Ancient Dragon's body trembled slightly, sending each one spitting blood and flying backwards, as effortlessly as brushing off a goose feather!
Having repelled the four Dou Zun with one blow, Zi Yan's gaze shifted, instantly locking onto the old man at the edge of the battlefield.
Four Dou Zun weren't enough; she wanted to take on five!
