Chapter 819
The Battle of Dragon and Phoenix
"Finally, finally, a rebirth has been completed..."
Jinjiao suddenly opened his eyes, slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and a look of exhaustion appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, the five-colored figure raised his hand and tossed a pill over.
Golden Horn caught it, glanced at it, and then swallowed it.
"What, are you afraid I've poisoned this pill?"
The girl in the five-colored dress raised her hand to support her chin and spoke with a smile.
"Correct."
Golden Horn immediately admitted it, then sat cross-legged and restored his demonic power.
"Truly, a dog's mouth can't produce ivory..."
The girl snorted coldly, then said, "This is your second rebirth, isn't it?"
"Ah."
Jinjiao nodded slightly, then slowly stood up.
Just then, he casually grabbed a set of clothes from the chaotic space and put them on.
"Most of my body is covered in dragon scales, so in a sense, it doesn't matter whether I wear them or not."
A strange thought crossed Jinjiao's mind, but he shook his head and his thoughts returned to calm.
"This kind of place is not easy to stay in. In a few days, the interior of the immortal volcano will be opened, and I don't want to miss it."
"That's true."
Feng Yao nodded slightly, a hint of confusion on her face, and said, "I don't know why my father is like this, why he wants to open the Undying Volcano to other demon races."
The Immortal Volcano is a treasure trove for the Phoenix Clan, and it remains closed year-round.
Now, the Five Virtues Phoenix Lord has personally given the order that not only Feng Yao and Jin Jiao can enter, but all the geniuses of the demon race can enter to temper themselves.
If the Demon Lord hadn't come to announce this, he probably would have been beaten to death by the other Phoenix Clan powerhouses before he could even finish speaking.
"Times have changed..."
Golden Horn slowly stood up and said:
"After the Great War of the Myriad Gods Cave ended, the Dragon and Phoenix races suffered heavy losses. It was not only a loss of their foundation, but also a significant depletion of the lifespan of the Dragon Lord and Phoenix Lord, which inevitably weakened their control over the Demon Realm."
"After all, although the Dragon and Phoenix clans in the Demon Realm can overwhelm other major clans when they join forces, it does not mean that there are no other Demon Lords in the Demon Realm."
He spoke, but Feng Yao remained calm, seemingly fully aware of the matter.
"I am aware of this matter, but I am still somewhat displeased with the use of such methods to win them over."
Feng Yao rose slightly.
As a Five Virtues Phoenix, the most prestigious bloodline in the Phoenix Clan, Feng Yao naturally takes pride in her Phoenix Clan.
Thinking of this, Feng Yao glanced at Jin Jiao again, and couldn't help but think of something that she still found somewhat unbelievable.
"The golden horn before us must be an avatar of the Tai Xuan Dao Venerable who has already vanished and disappeared..."
At this moment, Jinjiao was well aware of Feng Yao's thoughts and chuckled, "It's time to go. We need to find another fire vein."
"understood."
Feng Yao nodded.
Within this immortal volcano, there are numerous fire veins.
These fire veins contain the Nirvana True Fire generated by heaven and earth. By using this Nirvana Fire, one can undergo Nirvana and continuously transform one's physical body and primordial spirit.
However, this effect of Nirvana is of little use to those elderly venerable ones whose lifespans are nearing their end.
However, Nirvana is not necessarily a time of complete peace.
After all, the so-called Nirvana is about finding life in the midst of death.
Each rebirth involves a brush with death, but the benefits are immense. After rebirth, both the physical body and the primordial spirit will experience a significant improvement.
Besides these, it also has other clever uses and benefits.
Legend has it that the original Yuan Feng was a born Nirvana Law Demon Lord.
Whether the rumor was true or not, Jinjiao didn't know, but he did know that the Nirvana True Fire had a great effect on his physical body and primordial spirit.
After undergoing Nirvana three times and comprehending the laws of Nirvana, one is even able to enter the depths of the Immortal Volcano.
That's where the real benefits lie!
Jinjiao would naturally not let such an advantage pass him by.
He had been here for almost a few months, and for the first month or two he had been practicing the preparatory methods for this Nirvana technique.
In the following month, he directly sought out two fire veins to undergo Nirvana.
Now, we are only one step away from completing our three nirvanas.
Once everything was restored, Jiang Shu left the fiery cave and returned to the Undying Volcano.
"It seems that new fire veins will be discovered."
……
He has been in seclusion here for more than ten days, and some things have happened during this time.
"The White Tiger Demon Lord has successfully undergone his first Nirvana, and his strength has greatly increased!"
"The Demon Lord of Xuanhai is dead; he was consumed by the Nirvana True Fire."
"A few days ago, a fire vein caused a great fight among the powerful members of various royal families. In the end, the Venerable of the Xuanma Clan seized that place."
One message after another was sent out, constantly causing tremors within this immortal volcano.
The news caused a sensation, since even in the war between humans and demons, unless it was a battle of the level of the Cave of Ten Thousand Gods, it was rare for a Venerable-level expert to fall.
It is rare for a Venerable-level expert to perish under normal circumstances, let alone perish during cultivation.
"Did Venerable Xuanhai really perish like this? Didn't he boast that his strength was extraordinary and could rival that of the Tai Xuan Dao Venerable back then?"
"What a joke! Ever since that Jiang guy disappeared, Yao Yao has possessed the courage of the Supreme Daoist Master Tai Xuan."
"I heard that it wasn't just because of the failed refining, but also because of external forces."
"Who did this?"
All the powerful figures' expressions changed drastically.
After all, those who are able to enter this place are all top talents and figures among the demon race.
The unexpected fall of such a brilliant and powerful figure will surely cause a great uproar, and this is only because it occurred during the search for the volcano.
If this were outside the world, the two races would probably have already started a major war.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Undying Volcano, a fierce battle was raging.
A figure stood atop a cliff, his body covered in wounds, drops of purplish-red blood flowing down his face, facing numerous powerful opponents all by himself.
hum!
He kept swinging his sword, ripples spreading outwards, and wave after wave of golden waves swept in all directions, forcing the powerful figures who were attacking him to retreat.
"You can't escape. When the Demon Lord Xuanhai was in seclusion, it was you who fought a great battle in the outside world, which caused his Nirvana to fail. Today, you must settle accounts with him!"
A magnificent roc, its fur as golden as gold, spoke!
"Hmph... What does it have to do with me? He failed to maintain his own Nirvana and couldn't possibly blame me for it!"
The figure, surrounded by enemies, had an eerie posture.
Its upper body was almost identical to that of a human, but its lower body was that of a spider, with eight abdominal legs embedded in the ground, making it look quite ferocious. "No matter what you say, you are doomed!"
The golden roc spoke in a low voice, and a chilling aura spread across the sky, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere.
Although no one spoke at this moment, no one made a move easily.
The reason is simple: if they make a move, the Venerable One of the Spider Clan will definitely fight back with all his might, and he might even drag someone down with him. No one would dare to make any rash moves.
At this very moment, many powerful figures were observing from a distance.
To be able to enter it, one must at least be among the top-tier demon lords.
Many others, including those at the Venerable level, are also observing this battle.
Not far away, on the mountaintop, two figures appeared silently on the summit.
It was Jinjiao and Fengyao.
Golden Horn narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the prodigy of the Demon Spider clan, and nodded slightly:
"They have already undergone a rebirth and are quite powerful. The others were probably unlucky and did not find the place of rebirth."
He looked around, searching for any fire veins in the surrounding area.
"That person seems somewhat familiar; he is... Golden Horn of the Dragon Clan!"
He appeared openly on the mountain peak, without concealing his presence, seemingly unconcerned that he would be discovered by other powerful demons.
Among them were some old friends from the Pantheon Caves.
"It's him!? He was nowhere to be seen before, perhaps he went to Nirvana."
In an instant, the eyes of many powerful figures turned icy cold, and their hearts were filled with horror.
Currently, the strongest among the younger generation of demons is Golden Horn, whose reputation is unshakeable.
Even the White Tiger Demon Lord, who had inherited the White Tiger Demon Clan's legacy, possessed numerous extraordinary abilities, and even had the support of the demon realm's races, was directly defeated by Golden Horn.
Just then, among the powerful figures, a figure slowly stepped out. His surging aura shocked everyone, and his eyes, hidden with five colors, were dazzling and captivating.
The Great Dao of Yin and Yang!
This person is cultivating the Dao of Yin and Yang!
He is the pride of the Peacock Clan, and is also recognized as a genius with the potential to reach the level of a Demon Lord—Kong Xuan!
"Golden Horn, it's you! Do you dare to fight me!?"
Kong Xuan stared intently at Jiang Shu, his eyes revealing not only fighting spirit but also a hint of hatred.
Suddenly, several demon lords stood behind Kong Xuan, all sharing the same hatred for the enemy.
Not only them, but many powerful figures were also eyeing Golden Horn with covetous intent.
The reason is simple: although there are many opportunities in the Undying Volcano, it is definitely not possible for any demon race to come out with a full harvest.
"Oh, you want to fight me? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
In response to Kong Xuan's words, Jin Jiao spoke coldly, as always, as if he didn't care about anything.
He has completed his second Nirvana, and his cultivation has greatly increased in the Undying Volcano. Although he has not yet reached the late stage of the Venerable realm, there is no doubt that his strength is now close to that of his original self.
At this moment, he sneered and warned the demons, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
How can anyone be convinced by these words?
At this moment, all the powerful figures present shut their mouths, not daring to speak easily.
After all, Golden Horn had defeated White Tiger Demon Lord head-on in their previous battle, demonstrating his immense strength.
"No, is today going to be a day of bad luck?"
A demon lord spoke in a low voice.
"Even if he's incredibly strong, can he really order us all to be killed?"
"Since that's the case, I won't take advantage of your numbers. How about a one-on-one duel?"
Kong Xuan spoke with a cold laugh, his gaze occasionally glancing at Feng Yao, who was smiling lightly to the side, his anger and resentment growing stronger!
"Oh? Come on."
Golden Horn waved his hand and said, "Since you dare to challenge me, then please let me test your mettle."
Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan was furious. This was far too arrogant!
"kill!"
In an instant, five beams of light shot into the sky, then rotated through the five elements and struck directly at Golden Horn.
Upon seeing this, Jinjiao grinned and said, "A mere mid-stage Venerable dares to easily contend with me?"
He stepped into the air and charged straight back, his face turning directly towards Xuan.
boom!
The five-colored halo shattered instantly, and at this moment, Golden Horn did not have any Dao artifacts, but simply relied on his own physical body.
He took a step forward with incredible speed, and his fist slammed down, a dazzling halo of light bearing down on it, forcefully shattering the five-colored divine light.
Everyone was shocked, thinking that this Golden Horn was indeed a dragon who cultivated the Great Dao of Power, with an incomparably strong physical body, able to withstand the five-colored divine light.
What's even more shocking is that Golden Horn charged straight at Kong Xuan and unleashed a powerful punch.
Seeing all this, Kong Xuan remained calm and composed, standing motionless in place, exuding an aura of dominance over the world.
The next moment, Kong Xuan made his move. A vast ocean of five-colored light converged, as if it were constructed from countless inscriptions, and it exuded an overwhelming power as it charged directly toward Jiang Shu.
"Good timing..."
A deep roar came, and in an instant, Golden Horn threw another punch.
In that brief moment, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from behind Golden Horn, and a faint blue dragon roared out, directly blotting out the sun.
The two sides clashed, the winds and clouds shifted dramatically, and the world lost its color.
The five-colored rays of light transformed into continuous waves, blocking Jiang Shu's attack one after another.
In just a split second, the two passed each other, and Kong Xuan was sent flying backward, his five-colored halo shattering instantly.
The demon lords watching were suddenly shocked. In just one exchange, although Golden Horn had not directly defeated Kong Xuan, the power of that attack was already astonishing.
This scene sent shockwaves through the hearts of the powerful figures present.
Many powerful demons were seeing Golden Horn for the first time and found that this so-called strongest among the younger generation of demons seemed to be beyond their expectations.
"You only lost one move, you weren't defeated!"
Kong Xuan leaped up, his eyes burning, and five-colored divine light poured out.
Unlike the Five Virtues Phoenix, the five-colored divine light unleashed by this peacock was even purer and more dazzling, with the Five Elements Great Dao Wheel directly pressing down.
"Interesting. You're no match for me, yet you still dare to come up!"
Golden Horn grinned and unleashed another punch.
A vast aura spread out, and terrifying power swirled around his right fist, shattering everything in its path and directly piercing through layer after layer of five-colored divine light.
The peacock's full-force attack was enough to terrify many powerful figures present, yet it was still easily countered by Golden Horn, who did so with remarkable ease.
Even Kong Xuan's pupils slowly contracted.
"That's impossible. How many times has he undergone Nirvana? When he fought the White Tiger Demon Lord before, his strength certainly hadn't reached this level."
Kong Xuan's mind was shaken.
In the void, Golden Horn stood calmly, his posture imposing, exuding an aura of dominance over the world. (End of Chapter)
