“Such a domineering divine art!”
Quinn Shepherd couldn't help but grow excited. Even before the Nine-headed Phoenix reached him, the hurricane unleashed by the divine art had already blown apart the band tying his hair, sending his jet-black locks streaming straight back!
The skin on his face was whipped into furrows by the wind, and the scorching air made it hard for him to breathe.
Zechariah Lee was evenly matched with Quinn Shepherd, but Young Master Cyrus Qi attacked both at once—a testament to his confidence.
He was certain he could take down both Zechariah Lee and Quinn Shepherd at once!
As a disciple of an ancient Heavenly Court figure, he stood out even among the elite. Though he appeared refined and courteous, treating friend and foe alike with impeccable manners, he secretly looked down on these so-called 'lower realm' experts, considering them mere bumpkins.
He had been brewing this great divine art for a long time, and while probing Zechariah Lee, he finally performed the Ninefold Phoenix Perches on Phoenixwood flawlessly.
This was a great divine art from his Emperor’s-Throne scripture. Once unleashed, it could crush any opponent in the same realm—utterly unrivaled!
He wanted to capture Quinn Shepherd and Zechariah Lee together to establish Heavenly Court's prestige and show these 'lower realm bumpkins' the true might of Heaven!
Quinn Shepherd's blood was boiling. Young Master Cyrus Qi attacked both of them at once, but it felt as though Quinn alone was facing his onslaught. Clearly, this youth from the Heavenly Court was a terrifying opponent—the likes of which Quinn had never seen before!
Although Young Master Cyrus Qi's divine art required time to form and condense, its overwhelming power made Quinn Shepherd indescribably excited.
He had never faced such a terrifying opponent before!
He couldn't help but let out a long howl; dragon roars echoed within his body, and in an instant, the Eight Tones of the Ancestral Dragon resounded. After the Eight Tones, his Overlord Three-Core Art completed a full cycle!
The Nine-headed Phoenix swooped in, radiant and dazzling, its presence both mesmerizing and packed with astonishing power!
The moment the Nine-headed Phoenix flew down from the tree, it appeared before Quinn Shepherd. On the tree it seemed enormous, but as it reached him, it had shrunk to less than a foot tall.
Although its form had shrunk, its power and threat were even greater.
At the same time, Young Master Cyrus Qi unleashed a seal; the Phoenixwood tree swept down to meet the demon blade. Blade and tree collided, sending waves of force rippling outward, the hurricane filled with flames and flashing blades, roaring and sweeping all around.
The ground instantly melted into magma, and within the magma, flashes of blade light danced. In that instant when the two great divine arts collided, demon blades leapt out of the magma, each wielding a different technique. The hilts of the demon blades bore eerie eyes, which locked onto Young Master Cyrus Qi, controlling the movements of each blade.
At the same time, tiny Phoenixwood trees emerged within the magma, resisting the demon blades. On each tree was a phoenix nest, radiating rosy light that shattered the demon blades flying out of the magma.
At the same moment, Quinn Shepherd’s Sword Pill rose and hovered at his brow. With a light touch of his sword-fingers, the small Sword Pill composed of eight thousand swords instantly began to transform.
