“Phew! I finally ascended into the Monarch Realm!”
Somewhere in the Fortune Earth World, a crimson figure sat down with her legs crossed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Crimson embers were circulating her, and they contained scorching Daoist law energy.
It was Chu Hong, and she was the second one to break through to the Monarch Realm after Lan Yu.
“Great! I’m one step closer to Brother!”
Chu Hong was delighted.
After she exited her cultivation, she continued exploring the Fortune Earth World.
Suddenly, she heard people talking in the same language.
“Did you hear? Someone is targeting the Pan Gu Sect.”
“It’s going to happen sooner or later. They all have so much fortune energy. It’s only normal for them to be the common target.”
“But 1 heard some Pan Gu Sect cultivators are locked up in a valley for torturing.”
“Torture?”
“Yeah. I heard it’s Zhu Yang of the Dragon Tribe. He’s locked them up in the valley and burned them with the Infernal Dragon Flame without taking their lives.”
“What is he trying to do?”
“God knows…”
Chu Hong’s expression turned grim when she overheard the conversation.
“Zhu Yang of the Dragon Tribe, how dare you torture the cultivators of the Pan Gu Sect! I’m coming for you!”
With that, she went after the Dragon Tribe cultivators to ask where Zhu Yang held the Pan Gu Sect cultivators.
Soon, Chu Hong arrived at the valley.
The valley was huge and burning with blazing flames. Common cultivators would be burned if they got too near.
Even so, the valley was surrounded by several cultivators.
They were talking about the crimson figure above the valley.
“Instead of killing them for the fortune energy, Zhu Yang has locked them up and tortured them. What is he trying to do?”
“Maybe he’s trying to get back at Chu Kuangren, taking revenge for the insults he received.”
Many years ago, in the Heavenly Void Spirit World, Zhu Yang was defeated by Chu Kuangren with just a few moves, and it became a stain in his life that he could not erase.
It was understandable that he wanted to take revenge by torturing Chu Kuangren’s people.
However, it looked childish.
Chu Hong looked into the valley and saw a dozen figures channeling their
Daoist law energy to withstand the scorching flames.
Despite their efforts, they were losing.
Some of their bodies were burnt to a crisp!
“Damn it!”
Chu Hong could not watch anymore.
She dashed out in a stream of red light and aimed at Zhu Yang in the sky. The Monarch’s Daoist law energy erupted in her.
Zhu Yang looked at her. “Oh? Another one.”
His lips curled into a grin, and he quickly countered with a palm of Infernal Dragon Flames.
Instead of dodging it, Chu Hong countered with her own Phoenix Flames.
When the two flames clashed, stray flames splattered all over the valley.
Chu Hong dashed out of the flames and summoned a crimson spear in her hand. It was the fire-attribute Hongmeng Supreme Treasure that Chu Kuangren gave her.
As she thrust the spear forward, the phoenix’s cry sounded in the air.
“Interesting.”
Zhu Yang narrowed his eyes and grinned.
Even Monarchs could not take his flames head-on, yet Chu Hong, who was just a rookie Monarch, could easily block his flames.
“A Prodigy of the Phoenix Tribe?”
The Phoenix Tribe was also a Hongmeng Tribe that almost rivaled the Dragon Tribe.
However, they had not produced any amazing Prodigy in this era, yet a powerful one was hiding in the Pan Gu Sect.
Zhu Yang unleashed a palm strike forward, releasing his Infernal Dragon Flame again.
“Bang!”
The spear energy was crushed.
“Damn it!”
Chu Hong’s expression turned grim.
She had just ascended, and Zhu Yang was a veteran Monarch who was a lot stronger than her.
“It seems like I’ll have to use it here.”
Chu Hong took a deep breath and wore a determined look on her face.
Daoist law energy circulated her, and her golden Phoenix Flame burst.
“This is…”
Zhu Yang was surprised as he could sense Chu Hong’s aura rising sharply.
Soon, she reached the power level of a First Step Monarch.
“How? How can a fresh new Phoenix Monarch release such power? It’s rare even for the dragons.”
Zhu Yang was not scared.
He was just surprised by the sudden change.
“Divine Phoenix Nirvana!”
Chu Hong growled and released golden Phoenix Flames that formed the image of a real phoenix, frightening countless avians across millions of kilometers.
They felt an instinctive fear from their bloodline.
When a sky-pride of the Phoenix Tribe arrived and saw Chu Hong, she was astonished.
“Such pure Phoenix blood! In fact, she’s very close to the Primal Phoenix, something our tribe hasn’t seen before!”
The Primal Phoenix was an ancient being similar to the Primal Infernal Dragon.
After Chu Hong went through the baptism in the Creation Pool, her bloodline powers were greatly amplified, and it boosted her to the level of the ancient being.
If she had more Opportunities of Fortune, she could reach or even surpass the Primal Phoenix’s level.
“Go!”
Chu Hong lunged her spear forward.
The golden Phoenix Flame gushed forward in the form of a phoenix.
Zhu Yang bellowed, “Audacious!”
Even though Chu Hong’s power-up surprised him, he was not afraid of her as he, too, possessed the blood of the Primal Infernal Dragon.
Runes shone on his body, activating the All Law Indestructible Physique.
He threw a punch at the incoming spear.
The domineering vitality qi and the Infernal Dragon Flame combined to crush the phoenix shadow.
Still, Chu Hong was not deterred. Quite the opposite, she used all kinds of spear techniques as follow-up attacks, and they all contained the Phoenix Flame.
She attacked relentlessly like a storm!
She swung her spear in a flurry, so fast that even Zhu Yang had a hard time catching up. He looked like he was overpowered.
“Damn it!”
Zhu Yang could not hold it back anymore.
He was the Infernal Dragon. He had been a Monarch longer than Chu Hong, yet he was being overpowered.
It was humiliating, and he was pissed off.
“Infernal Dragon’s Eye! Open!”
Dark golden sparkles flashed across his eyes.
Suddenly, time around Chu Hong slowed down.
Her thrusting and swinging grew slower.
“Time?” Chu Hong was shocked.
Zhu Yang seized the chance and threw a palm strike at her, blasting her away. Blood gushed from her mouth.
However, at the next moment, a strange energy erupted in her and quickly healed her injuries.
Seeing that delighted the Phoenix sky-pride. “The Godly Phoenix’s undying ability! Her regeneration rate is far stronger than my tribe’s!”
Ancient legend had it that the Infernal Dragon controlled time and the Primal Phoenix controlled the power of rebirth.
The biggest characteristic of rebirth would be undying.
“The Phoenix’s undying ability? I’d like to see how you’ll regenerate if 1 beat you to ashes!” Zhu Yang said coldly.
No one could kill in the Fortune Earth World, but Zhu Yang could eliminate Chu Hong from the competition for fortune energy.
He still had a lot of bait to lure Chu Kuangren out anyway.
“Hmph! How dare you torture one of the Pan Gu Sect? For that, you shall die!”
A frosty voice echoed in the sky, followed by a blast of torrential Radiant energy that shed its light across the valley..
