Obviously, Ethan Xiao’s first target right now is Celia Xiao. In an instant, a surge of overwhelming power erupts and blasts straight toward her. Celia is immediately surrounded, and in the blink of an eye, she’s about to be killed!
Celia Xiao’s strength was never on par with Ethan Xiao’s, and right now, Ethan’s frenzied attack is basically the strongest he’s ever unleashed. Celia trembles all over—it’s clear she can’t hold out.
But at this critical moment, Ryan Ling doesn’t hesitate. He rockets forward, unleashing a wild burst of power that roars out and blocks Ethan’s strike head-on. Right now, Ryan is absolutely savage.
This time, though, Ryan is obviously not as chill as before—his face is tense, and it’s clear he’s feeling serious pressure.
“Ryan Ling, this time you’re finally done for, aren’t you? Even if your Silver Void Immortal is crazy strong, I bet you can’t do jack right now!” Seeing Ryan so stressed out, Ethan Xiao is absolutely hyped—he’s taken so many L’s from Ryan, and now he’s finally about to win one. Of course he’s psyched.
“Ryan!” Seeing Ryan’s bitter expression, Leon Long is worried sick. No one can help but be anxious about him right now.
After all, at this point, none of them are just your average Earth Immortals!
They’ve all been supercharged by Harlan Yanro’s blessing—their strength right now is absolutely next level!
“Ryan Ling, you’re dead for sure this time! Bros, stomp him into the ground!” Dragon-in-the-Sky doesn’t hesitate for a second—he shouts with excitement, and instantly, more than twenty Earth Immortals all attack at once!
In that moment, Ryan’s whole body starts twisting. Even with his huge reserves of Immortal Water, it’s all starting to evaporate—Harlan’s power is just too brutal, and Ryan can barely hold out. Even with all the buffs, he’s seriously struggling!
"Ryan, use my Golden Phoenix power! Back in the ancient days of the Immortal Domain, the Golden Phoenix was a Celestial-grade sacred beast—its power is more than enough to crush these bastards!" Celia Xiao shouted anxiously, then threw herself against Ryan Ling, hugging him tightly. The Golden Phoenix's power needed full skin-to-skin contact to transfer properly—only then could it reach its full effect!
"Damn you, you little slut—at a time like this, you're still doing this shameless crap! You make me sick!" Ethan Xiao was about to cough up blood, cursing Celia Xiao furiously. Around them, plenty of Earth Immortals were snickering—obviously, Celia's move was way too shocking. She was practically climbing all over Ryan, kissing him like crazy. The whole scene was wild and sizzling hot!
But just then, Ryan felt a surge of extraordinary power weaving through his body. For a moment, he could almost sense a colossal Golden Phoenix circling above his head.
"Celia, thank you!" Ryan's heart trembled. Even with all those Earth Immortals attacking, plus Harlan Yanro's buffs, he suddenly felt zero pressure. The Golden Phoenix power was like a natural super-barrier, shielding him completely.
"Go for it! You can totally pull off a miracle!" Celia was already feeling super weak, nearly collapsing, but when she saw the Golden Phoenix power fuse perfectly into Ryan, she finally stopped and staggered to the side.
"What... what is that?" The others might still be laughing, but Ethan Xiao couldn't. He'd just spotted something on Ryan that was anything but ordinary—the very Xiao clan sacred relic he'd searched for years but never found. And now it was quietly shielding an outsider. That drove him absolutely mad.
"Sons of bitches, hit him with everything you've got! Wipe out that bastard!" Ethan Xiao roared, voice booming like thunder. He had to kill Ryan and seize the Golden Phoenix power—his ultimate dream and obsession.
Right now, he controlled the Xiao clan and had even allied with the Huangfu Family. If he wiped out the Longs, he'd be the undisputed number two in the Immortal Domain. But all those fancy titles meant nothing compared to raw power.
Only power matters. That's the bottom line!
If he could get his hands on the Golden Phoenix power, everything would flip. That sacred beast was the golden key to the Celestial Realm. If he could absorb it, his strength would skyrocket—maybe not all the way to Celestial, but definitely to peak Earth Immortal!
So Ethan Xiao went absolutely berserk, slashing through the crowd like a madman, risking everything for power!
Ryan looked ready to collapse, but suddenly a golden light howled out—his whole body blazing, like he'd just donned a dazzling phoenix suit. In a flash, he blasted out of the Earth Immortal encirclement, fists flying in a wild flurry.
Punch after punch, sweeping out nonstop!
The surrounding Earth Immortals couldn't handle his power at all. One by one, they were blasted away, coughing up blood, their bodies torn open by invisible phoenix claws. The scene was so brutal and shocking, people could barely watch.
Just like that, over twenty Earth Immortals with Harlan Yanro's buffs were swept aside, every last one of them battered and bleeding!
"No way! That's insane!"
"Ryan's power is off the charts now! Holy crap!"
"Impossible! No way! Those Earth Immortals all had Harlan Yanro's boost—how could they get wrecked so easily?"
...
The whole crowd was left slack-jawed, totally stunned!
Ryan's explosive power had them all on the verge of collapse. Even the Long Family crew was dazed, wanting to shout but too shocked to make a sound!
A wave of terror swept through everyone!
Only Celia Xiao was smiling, clearly satisfied—the final Golden Phoenix boost had worked, and Ryan was in full king mode!
"Now it's your turn!" Ryan locked his gaze on Ethan Xiao. He'd already flattened almost every Earth Immortal—only one target left!
"D-don't come any closer!" Ethan Xiao's face was ghostly pale—hate and jealousy boiling inside. He knew exactly why Ryan was so strong: the Golden Phoenix boost, the very Xiao clan sacred relic, was working even better for Ryan than it ever had for the Xiao clan. It was a slap in Ethan's face, and he felt it hard.
"Scared now? Too late!" Ryan smirked coldly, not hesitating for a second. His eyes locked onto Ethan Xiao—he was going to finish this bastard, end the siege on the Longs, and send a message to Harlan Yanro himself!
"You—you wouldn't dare! I'm the Xiao clan patriarch and the Huangfu Family's most loyal ally! If you touch me, the Huangfu Family will never let you go. Harlan Yanro's about to become a Celestial!" Facing Ryan's rampage, Ethan Xiao was falling apart—his strength evaporating. The Golden Phoenix power was just too much; no ordinary Earth Immortal could stand against it!
"Beg all you want, but it's useless. You're dead today!" Ryan didn't hesitate. With the Golden Phoenix protecting him, this was his shot—whether for Celia Xiao or the whole Long clan, Ethan Xiao had to die!
But right at that critical moment, a deafening boom rocked everyone!
In an instant, waves of insane power swept in—earth-shaking, unstoppable, ready to flatten everything.
"Celestial power? Oh crap, that's some next-level Celestial force! Did Harlan Yanro just break through?" someone shouted.
"That's right, Celestial means! No one but a true Celestial could unleash this kind of power—it's terrifying! And at this exact moment, Harlan Yanro actually ascended! It's over... this whole situation is about to flip upside down..."
