Primordial Corpse Ancestor

Amidst the mix of tension, fear, and anticipation, a month passed quickly. At this time, Zulong was leading the dragon clan toward the Phoenix clan's settlement at the Tiannan Undying Volcano.

"Alas! Yangmei, do you think the Phoenix Clan will agree? Will those elders make things difficult for Fellow Daoist Zufeng?" Zulong asked somewhat nervously, his words filled with uncertainty as well as concern and worry for Zufeng.

Yang Mei looked at Zu Long's retreating figure with a hint of helplessness and said, "How should I know? But I don't think the situation is optimistic. You'd better be prepared!"

Yang Mei now deeply understands what it means to be "a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved." She never expected that what was just a temporary expedient would cause Zu Long to fall in love with Zu Feng at first sight. Now, Yang Mei is even beginning to doubt whether her decision back then was correct!

Unexpectedly, the mighty Ancestral Dragon, the progenitor of the Dragon Clan, had fallen to such a state of despair. Yang Mei couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, unsure of what to say to the Ancestral Dragon. At this moment, the Ancestral Dragon seemed to have only Ancestral Phoenix in his eyes. Although he was asking Yang Mei a question, he seemed oblivious to Yang Mei's answer and was still preoccupied with thinking about Ancestral Phoenix.

"These Wind Clan members are truly ungrateful! To be favored by the Ancestor is such an honor, yet they don't know how to cherish it!"

"That's true! The Ancestor is now only thinking about the Phoenix Clan's progenitor, the Ancestral Phoenix, and has almost forgotten about the Dragon Clan!"

"Even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman!"

"I think it's all the fault of beautiful women; they've made our ancestor so distraught!"

The dragons were arguing endlessly, all extremely dissatisfied with the current state of the Ancestral Dragon. However, due to the Ancestral Dragon's majesty, all the blame was placed on the Ancestral Phoenix!

However, the Phoenix Clan was also in a state of panic. Everyone with some status knew that the situation was serious. In fact, the Ancestral Phoenix had secretly arranged for some powerful members of the Phoenix Clan to move some young or even unformed Phoenix Clan members, or some Phoenix Clan members with great potential, to a safe area.

"Today is the last day! Why haven't the reinforcements Fengxiang sent arrived yet?!"

"Oh yeah? Time's almost up! What are we going to do?"

"I never imagined that our Phoenix Clan, which has always avoided conflicts of strength with other races, would still face such a difficult situation!"

"It is our fate. Even if we stay at home, our people will be attacked. If this is not destiny, what else could it be?"

The Phoenix Clan was thrown into a state of panic, with everyone appearing extremely anxious. They no longer held much hope for the reinforcements who had not yet arrived, as a month was almost up and the deadline had passed. By the time the reinforcements arrived, the Phoenix Clan would likely already be a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood!

"Alright! The enemy hasn't arrived yet, so anything can happen. How can we afford to panic? If things truly reach a point of no return, then let's fight to the death. For the sake of the Phoenix Clan's descendants who haven't yet truly taken human form, it would be worth risking our lives!"

Finally, Zu Feng could no longer tolerate their disarray and their attempts to undermine morale, so he reprimanded them.

"Yes! Think of those unborn children; we must protect them!"

"As one of the top forces in the primordial world, we are not to be trifled with; we possess strength no less than our enemies!"

"Although our top strength is not as great as theirs, this is the Undying Volcano, the territory of us Phoenixes. With our protective formation, even if the enemy comes, they will definitely suffer losses."

After Zu Feng's words, the Phoenix Clan instantly became highly motivated, encouraging each other, with almost everyone prepared to die.

Just as everyone was comforting each other, a Phoenix Clan elder finally came in from outside. He walked straight forward to the Ancestral Phoenix and said, "The Dragon Clan has arrived! They're clamoring outside to see the Ancestor!"

The entire hall was filled with elders of the Phoenix Clan, each possessing considerable cultivation. Although these words were addressed to the Ancestral Phoenix, all the elders in the hall heard them.

A moment of silence fell over the scene. Zu Feng frowned slightly, then said sternly, "Now that the Dragon Clan has arrived, elders, please follow me to see what's going on! Whatever the outcome, we cannot allow the Phoenix Clan to lose face and be looked down upon!"

Then, at Zu Feng's command, all the elders of the Phoenix Clan followed Zu Feng and headed out of the volcano. The scene was quite heroic, like a warrior cutting off his own arm. It was a scene of valor and determination, like a hero going forth and never returning.

Seeing that everyone before him was clad in precious robes and emanating the aura of magical treasures, Zu Long knew that the Phoenix Clan had made a decision. However, still unwilling to give up, he smiled at Zu Feng and asked, "I wonder what Fellow Daoist Zu Feng and the elders have truly decided?"

"Zu Long, I'm so sorry! I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you!" Zu Feng said to Zu Long with a slight wry smile.

"Is there really no room for maneuver? Is it really impossible for us to be together?" Zu Long's vision was already blurry, and a crystalline luster kept shimmering in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, I am, after all, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan. I cannot abandon the Phoenix Clan!" Zufeng said apologetically to Zufeng.

"Is it still because of the Phoenix Clan? Then what if the Phoenix Clan were gone? Surely then no one would be able to stop us, right?" Zu Long said to Zu Feng with a sinister expression.

Suddenly, as if sensing the coldness on Zu Long's face, Zu Feng asked in surprise, "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? I don't mean anything! Since it's the Phoenix Clan that's blocking us, then I'll make the Phoenix Clan disappear. If anyone else tries to stop us, then let them all disappear too!" Zu Long said, gazing at Zu Feng with deep affection, but his tone was unusually cold.

Then Zulong roared, "Exterminate the Phoenix Clan wherever they are!" With a wave of his hand, Zulong saw all the dragons under his command take out their magical weapons and charge towards the Phoenix Clan!

"Zu Long, you've gone too far!" Seeing Zu Long's sudden reaction, even though Zu Feng had already anticipated that the outcome would be a fight to the death, she still found it hard to accept.

"Hey!"

With a sharp cry, the Ancestral Phoenix instantly transformed into a fire phoenix nearly a hundred feet in size, and charged straight at the dragons with flames that shimmered with seven-colored light. In an instant, screams echoed between the two races.

After the first phoenix, one could see huge phoenixes and divine dragons fighting and dancing in the air!

A flawless version after careful inspection!

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a huge light curtain that kept flashing with seven colors shot into the sky and firmly enveloped the Tiannan Undying Volcano. At the same time, the phoenixes flying in the air burst into flames, making them look majestic and powerful.

Suddenly feeling the temperature in the air rise several times over, the once vibrant dragons instantly found that the water stored in their bodies began to evaporate at a rate hundreds of times faster than usual. Even the water-attribute magic that the dragons were good at was powerless, and they appeared extremely weak!

"snort!"

As if sensing something, Zu Long let out a cold snort, then turned to look at Yang Mei behind him. Yang Mei was also looking at him expectantly, awaiting his decision. Zu Long knew that if he didn't act, Yang Mei wouldn't.

At least for now, Yangmei wouldn't allow himself to be weaker than Zulong, since Yangmei still couldn't fully trust Zulong, just as Zulong couldn't.

Suddenly, the Ancestral Dragon revealed its enormous true form, nearly a hundred feet tall, and charged toward the Ancestral Phoenix above, seemingly to stop the Ancestral Phoenix from attacking the many dragons!

Seeing Zu Long make his move, Yang Mei didn't hesitate either, instantly transforming into a silver streak of light and rushing towards Zu Feng.

"Fellow Daoist Yangmei, I'll handle Ancestral Phoenix! You just need to protect the Dragon Clan as much as possible and kill as many Phoenix Clan members as possible! Ideally, you should be able to destroy the Phoenix Clan's foundation in one fell swoop!" Ancestral Dragon transmitted his voice to Yangmei amidst the chaos.

Upon hearing Zu Long's words, Yang Mei immediately frowned, for he had always coveted the Flame Banner of Lidi in Zu Feng's hands. If it fell into Zu Long's hands, then Yang Mei's efforts would have been in vain.

After much deliberation, Yang Mei ultimately did not go against Zu Long's wishes, since in Yang Mei's eyes Zu Long still had feelings for Zu Feng.

Then, Yang Mei instantly transformed into a silver streak of light and rushed towards the group of phoenixes in the air. Then, Yang Mei was seen holding a golden willow branch and constantly whipping the phoenixes. With each whip, the phoenixes were sent flying far away. There was no way around it; the difference in strength was too great!

Seemingly sensing the urgency of the situation, the Phoenix Clan elders and others who were controlling the formation instantly raised the Flame Banner, firmly enveloping and protecting all the Phoenix Clan members on the battlefield!

"Haha! Good, good, it's truly a stroke of luck! I originally thought this magic treasure would be in the hands of the Ancestral Phoenix, but I never expected that in order to protect the Phoenix Clan, this magic treasure was left behind to suppress the great formation and become the core of the formation!"

"This will give me a great opportunity to seize this treasure! From now on, this magical artifact will be mine!" Suddenly seeing the flaming banner rising from the ground, Yang Mei was overjoyed!

After all, the defensive capabilities of the Five Banners of Heaven and Earth are well known to all the powerful beings of the Primordial World; there is no one who doesn't know them!
