Chapter 341: Chapter 25 - How is there only one left? [Ask for monthly tickets!] _1

The vast Western Sea was set ablaze.

A sheet of blazing clouds streaked across the sky, impressive in its might. Only on closer inspection, one could see it was actually a divine beast soaring.

The divine feathers of the Phoenix Clan mingled with the mountains of the Huang Yang’s body, perfectly fused together on the Divine Beast Phoenix Sheep, making it a rare second-generation blood kin that was not inferior to the first-generation divine beast offspring in talents.

Like all the dragonkin species, their talent ceiling couldn’t compare to a pure blood dragon. However, this Divine Beast Phoenix Sheep, not only can its talent fully compare with the Phoenix Clan, but is even superior in some aspects, such as strength.

"Roar——"

Phoenix Sheep let out a muffled low roar, mixed with anger.

Because every time it woke up over the course of thirty years, it would immediately come to the Western Sea to fight —— with that legendary Divine Phoenix.

The Phoenix Clan is scarce in numbers, with likely no more than ten in the world, all had taken residence at the Western Sea Divine Phoenix Island. And the strongest of them was this Phoenix Sheep’s father.

Ever since Phoenix Sheep grew to its full form, it would challenge the King of Divine Phoenix each time it woke up. Although it was defeated each time, it would relentlessly fight again next time.

This is its anger!

In the past, whenever Phoenix Sheep flew over the region of the Western Sea, its Divine Phoenix father would come out to meet it. However, this time, there was no appearance.

Now Phoenix Sheep was already approaching the Divine Phoenix Island, a place it detests, but the King of Divine Phoenix still had not shown up.

Just when Phoenix Sheep thought it was hiding from itself, another figure appeared in the sky.

One that was very small compared to its size, yet carried a strong spiritual presence.

It was a tall human man, he wore a tattered linen robe, disheveled hair, a broken gourd hung at his waist, his face was rugged and full of edges.

"Are you looking for that Divine Phoenix King?" The corner of his mouth rose into a smirk, lazily saying: "I’m also looking for that Divine Phoenix King. It seems to be hiding, waiting for the ninth realm opportunity. The entire Divine Phoenix Island has disappeared."

Phoenix Sheep, from its vantage point above, sternly watched him with its blazing eyes. The beast’s instincts sensed this man meant harm.

"But the command I received is to force it out. Since you are its child." The man continued, "If I captured you, the King of Divine Phoenix will surely show up, won’t it?"

The casual air about him belied the outrageous claim that he could single-handedly capture a seventh realm divine beast!

Phoenix Sheep didn’t think he was joking, as it indeed sensed a great threat from this human cultivator! So, it launched the attack first!

"Roar——"

With a roar, the Phoenix sheep vibrated the wings that belonged to the Divine Phoenix. It opened its mouth and spat out a ball of crimson-gold flames!

This was the Phoenix Spirit Divine Fire that Chu Liang had just acquired, but the scale of this mouthful of Phoenix Spirit Divine Fire was something the hundreds of fire seeds Chu Liang owned could not reach!

Boom——

The man lifted his hand and smashed the fireball. A surging water-blue aura wrapped around him, and when the divine thoughts were invoked, the Western Sea shook!

"The reason I was sent to deal with Phoenix Sheep is because I can restrain your phoenix fire!" He shouted, raising his hand, the sea stirred up tumultuous waves. In an instant, the seawater gathered into five spiralling dragons!

Five water dragons simultaneously came out of the sea, entwining around the Phoenix Sheep. When they encountered the flaming aura surrounding the Phoenix Sheep, it made a crackling sound! A torrential water-fire battle ensured!

Amidst the torrential water-fire, the man leaped, landing on the back of Phoenix Sheep, his foot stomped down!

Boom!

...

"Phoenix Sheep Life Fruit!"

After Chu Liang had plucked the Phoenix Sheep Life Fruit, Li Shiyi gave up the fight, didn’t strike at him again.

Instead, Feng Chaoyang and Luo Xiaoyong, who were fighting on the side, stopped immediately seeing the situation and both looked hungrily at Chu Liang.

It seemed the effects of the Resentment Chain on the same person would gradually decrease. It could last for a while at first, but now it was over after just a few breaths.

Feng Chaoyang looked suspiciously at Chu Liang: "Is it your doing that both of us were fighting?"

He couldn’t be blamed for having suspicions, although he thought this couldn’t be a technique a fourth-realm cultivator should have, but recalling the timing of Luo Xiaoyong’s sudden attack on him ...

The first time was when he challenged Chu Liang, the second time was when he challenged Chu Liang a second time ... the third time was when they were preparing to fight for the Phoenix Life Sheep Fruit.

The direct beneficiary of all three incidents was Chu Liang.

"Hmm." Chu Liang only smiled slightly at this: "The Phoenix Sheep Life Fruit is right here. If Brother Feng wants it, you can challenge me now."

"Good! I’ve been meaning to do this!" Feng Chaoyang instantly perked up.

Having said that, he brushed his sleeves and subconsciously wanted to let the people next to him withdraw. But as the words were on the tip of his tongue, for some reason, his expression stiffened, and he painfully held back and didn’t dare to glance even in Luo Xiaoyong’s direction.

He finally learned his lesson, if he wanted to make a move, he would have to do it quickly, and not to have a single superfluous glance.

Chu Liang observed Feng Chaoyang’s fighting in these two instances and had a general understanding of his strength, so he stooped down and rushed over like an arrow leaving a bow, shouting: "Come on!"

"Bring it on!" Feng Chaoyang instantly put up a divine light shield, and met him head on!

Chu Liang instantly activated the Divine Dragon Blood Burning Technique, his momentum soaring high! Feng Chaoyang, on the other hand, emitted a brilliant golden light from head to toe!

Both of them collided in a flash!

Chu Liang raised a half-gold brick with his right hand. Seeing Feng Chaoyang hurling a fist at him, he did not counterattack but instead tilted his body using the Retreat Body Technique, letting Feng Chaoyang’s fist hit his chest!

Simultaneously, his gold brick smacked Feng Chaoyang across the face!

Thud Thud——

Two overlapping muffled sounds exploded!

Chu Liang unexpectedly fought with Feng Chaoyang using a damage-for-damage approach!

Both Luo Xiaoyong and Li Shiyi on the sidelines were utterly amazed. Luo Xiaoyong had fought three rounds with Feng Chaoyang and had not been able to cause as much damage as Chu Liang did in this single collision!

However, in return, Chu Liang had also taken a hit!

Watching the sequence in front of him, Li Shiyi’s pupils constricted drastically, and his understanding of the terror of the martial world deepened.

He wanted to go home even more...

"Ugh..." Feng Chaoyang’s fist slammed into Chu Liang’s chest, sending him flying backward several metres, but he still stood upright.

"Ahh——" Chu Liang’s brick side-swiped Feng Chaoyang’s face and knocked him completely off his feet, sending him tumbling in the air and falling on the ground.

The superior one was immediately obvious!

They had come to blows once and a victor had been decided!

Chu Liang let out a sigh of relief and managed to stabilize his surging vitality and blood.

Indeed, after observing Feng Chaoyang’s previous battles a few times, he decided to use this strategy. Because he found that while the Heavenly Star Oddity Technique of the Heavenly King Sect could be used from both far and near, Feng Chaoyang, probably due to his personal character, preferred close-combat attack.

And close combat was exactly Chu Liang’s forte.

Even though his offensive tactic was just the Brick Fighting, aided by the Dragon Blood Secret Method and the Burning Blood Technique, his physical body had reached a terrifying level within the Fourth Realm.

In such a damage-for-damage approach, apart from hardy martial artists like Yun Chaoxian, it is difficult for cultivators of the same realm to compete!

When he swung a right hook with the gold brick as hard as he could, even a body cast from meteorite would cave in. Even though Feng Chaoyang was shielded by divine light, his defense was still broken.

The battlefield shifted greatly in Chu Liang’s favor, turning a previously evenly matched situation into Chu Liang’s overwhelming victory!

Watching Feng Chaoyang being knocked into the air and hit the ground, unable to get up for the moment, Chu Liang knew that he only seemed to have triumphed over him in the arena. But if it were a life-and-death duel and he let the opponent recover, it would still be uncertain who would live and who would die.

He slowly walked over, leaned down, and extended his hand towards Feng Chaoyang.

Feng Chaoyang’s divine light was shattered by Chu Liang’s brick combined with the rebounding force, and he was in a chaotic state. Seeing Chu Liang reaching out his hand to him, he too extended his hand.

Chu Liang pulled him up and said, "Brother Feng, you had several bouts with others earlier, so I had an advantage. Let’s spar again once you have fully recovered."

"There’s no need for that, a loss is a loss." Originally, Feng Chaoyang had some resistance left in his heart, thinking that if it wasn’t for the unexpected rebounding force, he wouldn’t necessarily lose if he kept his distance from Chu Liang. But hearing Chu Liang’s words, he waved his hands: "I accept my loss to you this time wholeheartedly. I’ll continue to cultivate and will win back next time."

Chu Liang smiled and said, "It’s good for us, fellow righteous cultivators, to spar with each other, as long as we don’t cause discord. Perfecting ourselves is all for the sake of repelling demons and upholding righteousness!"

Feng Chaoyang also felt very compassionate and nodded in agreement, "Exactly!"

If he previously had a bit of animosity towards Chu Liang, then it is mostly transformed into respect now. This man, in terms of strength, indeed knocked him down with one hit, and in terms of vision, indeed had some on him.

Just as he was about to say something, there was a clank from above, and a huge crack appeared in the sky again! A rain of fire fell from it!

What’s going on?

All four were shocked.

Was it the return of the secret realm’s master Phoenix Sheep?

But every time it went to the Western Sea, it would stay there for a few days. Why did it come back so soon this time? Was there any anomaly?

Both Li Shiyi and Chu Liang immediately set up their Flying Sword Body Protection, while Luo Xiaoyong set up an Xuanbing (Mysterious Ice) shield, all putting themselves in a state ready to face danger.

Feng Chaoyang also took out the General Star Bead, ready to use his divine skills at any time.

But as soon as he took out the General Star Bead, he himself paused.

How come there is only one left?

Ah?!
