Chapter 362 - 286: Dragon of the End, Ashen Envoy, and the Less Than Thorough Ninety-Eight Percent Demon Venerable (Part 3)
[They’ve gotten themselves into big trouble.]
[The legion, with coordinated combat among various professionals, is a crushing force against ordinary Purple Gold Level professionals, unless Galaxy University’s principal, Mu Yan, is present. With the Feiyan Class’ composition of two Green Source, three Blue Soul, and one Purple Gold, it’s absolutely impossible to break out.]
[Xiao Ying glanced around; there were seven Purple Gold Level professionals among the Pirate Legion. Such a lineup was clearly beyond the strength of those under Xuanyin Demon Venerable.]
[Xiao Ying was not confident in protecting everyone in the Feiyan Class while breaking out, unless he unlocked the Demon Venerable body in his heart and performed the "Eight Extremes Heaven: Divine Demon Resolution." But... he glanced at Yu Long, Yu Yao, and Jiu Yue out of the corner of his eye and sighed softly.]
[Xiao Ying slowly clenched his fist; he was just someone who loved gourmet food, just a Martial Arts Practitioner who enjoyed peace.]
[Why...]
[Why do people always have to force him...]
[At this moment, Elder Snow Ghost straightened his back and walked step by step toward the members of the Feiyan Class. He looked at the Magic Box in Bai Ze’s hand and said calmly, "Little one, hand over the Primordial Gemstone, and I can spare your lives."]
[Bai Ze frowned slightly upon hearing Elder Snow Ghost’s words. "You are... Soul Refining Demon Venerable. How could you know that the Magic Box contains the Primordial Gemstone..."]
[Elder Snow Ghost was taken aback, his brow furrowing deeply.]
[He was a Demon Corpse of Soul Refining Demon Venerable, waiting here in advance. Aside from obtaining the Primordial Gemstone, the main plan was to prevent the birth of the "Order Grandmaster South Phoenix" in advance.]
[Without the Phoenix to compete with the Northern Demon Dragon, the Strongest in the Universe couldn’t stop the progress of the Abyssal Dimension.]
[Indeed, Soul Refining Demon Venerable possessed the isotopic memories of the "Dragon and Phoenix Era," and he understood the terror of the Phoenix better than anyone.]
[Whether borrowing power, overt schemes, or covert plots, they all seemed powerless before the Phoenix. Even the Immortal Emperor he once used, and the God of Revelation ultimately fell at the hands of the Phoenix.]
[That silver-white figure was an inescapable shadow from his past life, etched deeply into his memory like a nightmarish fear he could not shake off.]
[Since the myth of invincibility held by the Strongest in the Universe was shattered by the two Grandmasters, Dragon and Phoenix, the universe had only two Grandmasters; everyone else could only call themselves Martial Arts Masters, and no one dared to claim the title of Grandmaster lightly.]
[The Phoenix ushered in a golden age of martial arts, with everyone in the universe learning the Phoenix Martial Dao, aspiring to become the third Grandmaster.]
[Soul Refining Demon Venerable was no exception; he sent a white silhouette to apprentice under the disciple of the Order Grandmaster, immersing himself in learning the Phoenix’s martial arts.]
[If you can’t beat them, join them.]
[Soul Refining Demon Venerable even cultivated to the Purple Gold Level Martial Arts Practitioner, combining his own awakening abilities to create an Ultimate Skill to comprehend the "Ultimate Intent." Even so, he could only barely spar with Radiant Powerhouses, still far from touching the invincible realm of Dragon and Phoenix.]
[Whenever he recalled the punches and kicks of the Northern Demon Dragon and the Palm Sword of the South Phoenix, he felt an indescribable sense of helplessness, as if he were a child. That power was a terror beyond ordinary comprehension.]
[In desperation.]
[Soul Refining Demon Venerable had to take a different path, wielding the Primordial Gemstone, attempting to break through limits with it, but in the final battle, he was still slain by the Phoenix.]
[Thus, three years ago, after awakening isotopic memories, Soul Refining Demon Venerable began scheming in secret, vowing to kill Yan Sect’s Bai Xiao.]
[Bai Ze paused, suddenly realizing something, her expression changing drastically.]
[In the Fifth Cosmos, the Soul Refining Demon Venerable’s incarnation was not Elder Snow Ghost.]
[But when they stopped at the Modified Star Port far from Blizzard Star aboard the Fei Yan, tasting special gourmet food, a Purple Gold Demon Corpse of the Yangluo Race belonging to Soul Refining Demon Venerable passed by, thinking he could take the opportunity to refine Yan Sect’s Bai Xiao into a Demon Corpse.]
[Sneaking beside Zhurong Mu Yan.]
[At that time, Soul Refining Demon Venerable led the Yangluo Race Legion with great confidence, but clearly underestimated the strength of Yan Sect’s Bai Xiao and the Feiyan Class. In the ensuing battle between the two sides, the Magic Box was accidentally shattered.]
[Only then did people discover that this Cosmic Wonder was actually— the Primordial Gemstone!]
[And this time... Bai Ze’s Royal Authority Machine scanned the Pirate Legion, recognizing among them seven Demon Corpses from Purple Gold powerhouses of other Star Clusters, as well as three renowned Purple Gold Level powerhouses of the Milky Way Galaxy. This legion was effectively the culmination of Soul Refining Demon Venerable’s millennia of accumulation.]
[Soul Refining Demon Venerable was always cautious, claiming "never acting without ninety-eight percent certainty," and exposing so many Demon Corpses at once was clearly not meant to deal with the mere riffraff of the Feiyan Class.]
[Soul Refining Demon Venerable’s target is— Yan Sect’s Bai Xiao!!]
[Not good!]
[He intends to prevent the birth of the Phoenix!]
[Bai Ze quickly sorted through her thoughts and looked down at the "indestructible" Magic Box in her hand, her heart suddenly filled with panic.]
[It’s over!]
