Ba Tian had no good feelings toward the human race.
Because the decline of the Monster Race back then was caused by a single human.
Although it was precisely because of the fall of the Sixteen Monster Races that their other races had the chance to rise.
But as far as Ba Tian was concerned, he still disliked the human race.
He had originally wanted to directly have that human beheaded, but in the end he still asked a question.
"What is a human doing going to Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix?"
The Cangxuan Realm was now in utter chaos; aside from the territory ruled by Yao Pond, all the other regions were monster clans locked in internecine war.
At a ti like this, all the other races were heading toward the lands under Yao Pond's rule, and basically wouldn't co to these chaotic monster territories.
Hearing Ba Tian's question, that Monster Race mber hurriedly replied, "I asked, but that human refused to tell us."
"The experts of our Cloud Eagle Tribe are already intercepting him."
"I beg the Great King to issue your command: do we kill him or keep him?"
Ba Tian snorted coldly and said, "Does this human think that just because the Monster Race has fallen, he can act with impunity?"
"This king will go with you to have a look. This human must be killed by my own hand."
As Ba Tian's words fell, the other monsters at his side all chid in in support.
Among them, a Monster Beast with a pig's head and a human body stepped out.
This was of the Split-Mane Black Pig Clan.
Their clan was currently second only to the Tyrannosaur Clan in strength.
The Clan Leader's na was Zhu Tiangang.
They just heard him say, "Great King, there's no need for you to act personally. I, this old boar, can settle him directly."
"When the ti cos, I'll bring his head to see you."
Ba Tian pondered slightly for a mont, then finally nodded.
When subordinates want a chance to show off, he naturally couldn't refuse.
Besides, his status was now higher and higher, and he no longer needed to establish his might like before.
"Go then. I'll wait with warm wine," Ba Tian said with a loud laugh.
...…
Under the guidance of the little monster, Zhu Tiangang quickly rushed toward Xu Zii's location.
But when he arrived here, he did not find Xu Zii; instead, what greeted him was a ground full of corpses.
The little monster's face turned ugly at this sight.
These corpses were all monster experts who had just tried to stop Xu Zii from leaving, yet unexpectedly they had all been slain.
Zhu Tiangang snorted coldly.
He said, "Quite so nerve."
He was very confident in his own strength.
Seeing so many monster clansn killed, Zhu Tiangang grew all the more furious.
He lifted his head and looked toward the east.
He said, "Since the other party wants to go to Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix, he will definitely head east."
"If we chase him now, we might still have a chance to catch up."
At Zhu Tiangang's words, the little monster seed sowhat hesitant.
He said, "My lord, for this person to dare co here alone, he is surely not soone easy to provoke."
"Why don't we go back and report to Lord Ba Tian first, then decide what to do?"
These little monsters belonged to the lowest rung of the Monster Race.
They had always been deeply in awe of the strong.
For little monsters like them, whose lives were as cheap as grass, if they wanted to keep living, they had to be absolutely cautious.
Once there was anything amiss, or anything they were unsure of, they would never take the risk.
So at this mont, the little monster was beating a retreat in his heart.
Hearing the little monster's words, Zhu Tiangang snorted coldly.
He said mildly, "Coward, just this bit of minor trouble and you're scared like this."
"These years on the Monster Race battlefield, I, this old boar, have no idea how many humans I've killed. Have I ever even frowned once?"
"Just watch. I'll go sever his head right now and use it to wash down my wine."
With that, Zhu Tiangang no longer paid any attention to the little monster.
He stepped into the air directly, the power around him soaring, and gave chase toward the east.
Demonic Qi billowed off his body; in his hand he held a great club, its surface densely studded with fangs, sowhat similar to a Wolf Fang Club.
Zhu Tiangang stirred wind and rain as he moved, like a streaking Monster Star, flashing past.
...…
At this ti, Xu Zii was strolling along as if walking in his own courtyard, heading toward the location of Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix.
As he walked, he was also observing the terrain.
This Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix was said to be as steady as Mount Tai, having repeatedly frustrated the monsters, who had long failed to breach it.
It all ca down to the special terrain here.
Setting up a Formation here could gather endless Demonic Qi, multiplying the Formation's power.
And this place was easy to defend and hard to attack.
Back then, for the Monster Fire Phoenix Clan to seat their Ancestral Court here must have been after much consideration.
Looking down from the Firmant, this Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix was like a cage, imprisoning all living things that entered.
Even just from the lay of the land, the closer one drew to the interior, the more one could feel that sense of oppression.
It was like a very small cave; once you crawled in, you would feel extrely uncomfortable.
Inside, the cave was dark and deathly still, the kind of place that instinctively made people feel ill at ease.
This was the influence of the terrain.
"A place of demonic evil," Xu Zii said mildly.
The Monster Fire Phoenix were not actually of the true Phoenix lineage.
They were born with a type of fla in their bodies, called Undying Monster Fire.
It was different from the Phoenix's Nirvana fla.
This Undying Monster Fire would not help a Monster Phoenix to be reborn.
It was a fire that would never be extinguished.
It was said that the strongest of the Monster Fire Phoenix had once spat out flas that burned for several hundred years without going out.
This was no legend, but a real event.
Because at the entrance of Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix, there was a Fla Mountain.
This Fla Mountain was ten thousand ters high, towering into the clouds, hard to look upon directly.
Purple flas covered the mountain's surroundings.
These flas were like an undying sun, eternally shrouding the peak, and their glow reflected against the Firmant all around.
At the foot of Fla Mountain, there was a gate.
If one wanted to enter Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix, one had to go through this gate.
One must absolutely not try to scale this Fla Mountain.
Because all those who tried to cross over the peak ended up buried in a sea of fire.
And at this mont, Xu Zii had arrived below Fla Mountain.
He saw the mountain towering and mighty, thrusting up into the sky, standing through ancient ages.
Around Fla Mountain, the Gold Pangolin Clan was stationed as its guards.
They were the most loyal Guardians of the Monster Fire Phoenix Clan.
This was no joke.
Their outward appearance was not much different from an ordinary pangolin, but their size was vastly greater.
Especially since they were said to possess a gigantification art.
And the Gold Pangolin Clan was extrely adept at earth-burrowing.
It was like a fish swimming into the great sea.
For the Gold Pangolin Clan, the deep earth was like water to a fish.
In this battle, the Gold Pangolin Clan bore the role of intelligence.
They traveled by burrowing underground; even other monsters found it very hard to catch them.
...…
This ti, the Clan Leader of the Gold Pangolin Clan, the expert known as Elder Jin, was personally stationed here.
Because Fla Mountain was the gate to Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix, it was of paramount importance, and no one dared be careless.
If the gate were lost, the overall situation would be dood.
And with Xu Zii's arrival, since he had not deliberately concealed his figure, he was imdiately discovered by the Gold Pangolin Clan.
"A human?"
"What is a human doing here?"
Elder Jin frowned slightly.
A layer of golden armor covered his body's surface, his defensive power astonishing.
