Chapter 1925 - Are You Looking Down on Me?

Chapter 1925: Are You Looking Down on Me?

An unimaginable heat instantly charred An Lin’s skin coal-black.

As he hovered in the core of the sun, he was squeezed and hammered by a ferocious compressive force. The fire that burned in this sun was no ordinary fire. An Lin had eaten an ordinary sun before, and the fire that burned in that sun was nowhere near as fearsome as the fire that burned in this one.

Amid the raging flames, there was no life, no space, and no substance. All that existed here was an undying flame that possessed the power of reincarnation and could incinerate everything into thin air.

An Lin’s appearance here was like an aberration. The power of the entire sun was rejecting and attacking him, and it wanted to incinerate and destroy this foreign matter that had entered its body. Thus, the attacks that An Lin faced were unimaginably overwhelming.

“Ahhh!” An Lin was suffering an unspeakable agony. It was as if his body was going to melt and evaporate at any moment. He immediately activated his heavenly fire power and tried to control the flames that raged throughout this sun. However, he discovered that he couldn’t f*cking do it!

The flames that blazed in this sun were imbued with the Vermilion Bird’s absolute will. As such, An Lin’s nomological power was completely useless against them. To be more precise, he wasn’t powerful enough, so the nomological power that he could unleash wasn’t strong enough to control these flames.

Not only that, but this sun even dragged An Lin into an uncanny “reincarnation” cycle. No matter where he moved, he would always be teleported back to the core of the sun the very next instant. He was completely unable to break free of this cycle.

An Lin tried to hack the sun apart with his sword, yet once the flames were sliced open, they would instantly join back together again.

These flames could also reincarnate. They could reincarnate from death back to life…

An Lin had no choice but to form a barrier with his remaining six heavenly god powers. Even so, he still had to draw on every last bit of his power to defend against the devastating attacks of the flames.

This was a formidable flame formation. Even though An Lin was able to defend against its attacks for the moment, under the unceasing thrashings from the flames, there would eventually come a time where he would finally be unable to endure. When that time came, it would be An Lin’s doomsday.

As this sun battered An Lin, it didn’t forget to slowly orbit around the colossal Vermilion Bird Star.

This sun was also a member of the Nine Star System.

At this moment, a neighboring star suddenly exclaimed softly.

“Huh? The Vermilion Bird actually used the Reincarnation Sun against a human? That’s so overkilled…

“By activating this mystic technique, not only will the caster’s life essence be decreased, but even their personal dao will be detrimentally affected. It’s a technique that hurts its caster almost as much as it hurts its enemy. The Vermilion Bird is willing to sacrifice so much to trap her enemy within the torturous Reincarnation Flames… Is her enemy too strong, or is her hatred for the enemy too great?”

As the star murmured to itself, it used its penetrating gaze to look into the Reincarnation Sun. There, it discovered that An Lin was still hanging on to his dear life. Upon seeing this, the star couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “A strange cultivation base, a strange divine body, and a strange power… Everything about this human is strange… Where did this extraordinary talent come from? Could he be… from Tai Chu?

“It’s clear that the Vermilion Bird only wants to absorb the bloodline of her inheritor. Who’d have thought such a freak would be dragged into their matters? Sigh… such a shame. He shouldn’t have provoked the Vermilion Bird so quickly…”

The star sighed in sympathy. Then, it suddenly became a little hesitant.

Should I save him?

Forget about it. Everything is determined by fate. If he dies, then he dies.

Who told him to provoke the Vermilion Bird?

He’ll be fine as long as he’s less impulsive in his next life.

The star shook its head in pity as it decided against rescuing An Lin.

…

Meanwhile, on the Immortal Vermilion Star…

In the Flame Heart Immortal Realm…

After teleporting An Lin away, the Great Empress Vermilion Bird turned her frosty eyes toward the nearby Xu Xiaolan. The corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile. “Done, I’ve finally managed to kill that annoying fly… Now, only you and I are left in this realm…”

“An Lin definitely won’t be killed that easily,” Xu Xiaolan continued to draw divine patterns on her body as she looked at the Great Empress Vermilion Bird.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird slowly walked toward Xu Xiaolan. There was a look of greed and hate on her face, and the overwhelming might of her Holy Berth relentlessly surged toward the azure-clothed female before her.

“What a perfect human… Your development is already far beyond what I had imagined. If I weren’t in desperate need for an extremely pure bloodline power, then I genuinely might have installed you as the successor to my Holy Berth…”

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s fervent eyes swam over Xu Xiaolan’s body. Then, she placed a slender finger on her dainty lips and chuckled. “If I absorb your power in entirety, then I’ll definitely be able to heal the imperfections in my body…

“There’s no denying the fact that I did kneel down to you. However, if I swallow you and fuse you into my body, then you’ll become a part of me, the Vermilion Bird. That being the case, wouldn’t I have just kneeled to myself? As such, I’ll still be the proudest, noblest, and holiest me…”

Xu Xiaolan’s lips twitched upon hearing this.

What kind of time is this… And you’re still fixated on the issue of kneeling down at me?

“Come… become a part of me…” The Great Empress Vermilion Bird breathed out the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence again.

The crimson-red bead released an extremely enchanting glow as it spun slowly. This glow made Xu Xiaolan’s bloodline palpitate in excitement. Like a moth charging into a flame, her bloodline wanted to recklessly leap toward the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence.

There was a look of firm resolution on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she gripped her Dragon Sparrow Sword tightly in her hands.

“Huh? You’re still trying to resist?” The Great Empress Vermilion Bird chuckled softly. “Everything that you possess was bestowed by me. What are you going to challenge me with?”

She made a pressing motion toward Xu Xiaolan. “Kneel!”

Boom!

The supreme power that was unique to the Great Empress Vermilion Bird descended upon Xu Xiaolan’s body.

As expected, the Vermilion Bird bloodline in Xu Xiaolan’s body immediately submitted to her power. Moreover, it compelled Xu Xiaolan’s body to kneel down toward her.

Xu Xiaolan’s knees started to bend.

In the next instant, however, they suddenly straightened back up!

The earth below them exploded apart.

Then, Xu Xiaolan dashed before the Great Empress Vermilion Bird at an unfathomable speed. Like a roaring Divine Dragon, her Dragon Sparrow Sword possessed a boundless dragon might as it furiously slashed down at the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence.

Boom!

A razor-sharp blade viciously tore at the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence.

The place that Xu Xiaolan struck was exactly the same location as where An Lin had struck before. A fracture reappeared on the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence. Tearing open an old wound was much easier than trying to create a new wound elsewhere.

Tragedy befell the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence again.

When the Great Empress Vermilion Bird came to her senses, it was already too late to remedy the situation.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword had already sliced the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence into two again!

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird lashed out at Xu Xiaolan as she screamed in hysteria, “No!!!”

Xu Xiaolan parried with her sword, and the majestic power that hit it caused her Dragon Sparrow Sword to tremble violently. Meanwhile, her body was also sent flying backward like a startled goose. However, her mouth suddenly opened at this moment. “Roar!”

Like a raging torrent, an azure-green dragon breath instantly engulfed the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s body.

In the next instant, however, a blazing holy flame erupted and incinerated the billowing dragon breath into nothingness.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird looked extremely feeble as she swallowed the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence back into her body once more. However, she continued to vomit large mouthfuls of blood. “Impossible… Absolutely impossible… How come you can still attack me…?”

Xu Xiaolan paused in mid-air. Meanwhile, her Dragon Sparrow Sword continued to dance through the void like a dashing lightning dragon. “When An Lin was fighting against you, what did you think I was drawing divine patterns onto my body for? It was to seal away the damned Vermilion Bird bloodline in my body…

“Since you can command all Vermilion Bird bloodlines, I decided to seal away my own Vermilion Bird bloodline.”

Gold, semi-transparent dragon scales started to materialize on Xu Xiaolan’s pale and delicate skin. At the same time, two dragon horns also started to emerge on her head. “Everything that I possess was bestowed by you? Sorry, but even without the Vermilion Bird bloodline, I, Xu Xiaolan, can still beat you!”

Crack!

Xu Xiaolan shattered the Azure Dragon Tribe’s Guardian Deity Jade Pendant!
