Shrouding the Heavens Chapter 439: Chapter 444: The 9 Tribulations Phoenix Melody

Chapter 439: Chapter 444: The 9 Tribulations Phoenix Melody

Ye Fan was determined to kill Hua Yunfei. Without any unnecessary words, his golden hand covered the heavens and earth, crushing the void to collapse. The world trembled, and the power of the Immortal Holy Body fully erupted. The Immortal King’s Nine Heavens united with him; the Nine Layer Heavens were vast and high, clouds flowing beneath his feet, making him appear like a divine presence. Every step he took caused the heavens and earth to shake with a terrifying and mysterious rhythm, making many people’s hearts almost jump out, on the verge of breaking apart. He was like a Holy Spirit forged from Divine Gold, his entire body radiating brilliance. Golden Blood Qi soared to the sky as his golden hand swept forward, shrouding the heavens.

Hua Yunfei usually kept a low profile but was extremely powerful. He was like a Lingbo Immortal, surpassing the limits of speed, being the embodiment of the Dao at this moment. He sliced through the void, transformed into a blue light with Dao Glyphs flowing around him, and narrowly avoided the Immortal King’s Nine Heavens, skimming past the golden hand.

BOOM!

Ye Fan sneered. The Chaos Seed Green Lotus Phenomenon descended, wisps of mist slicing through the heavens. The green lotus, imbued with the intent of creation, shook violently, as if to open a new world!

CLANG!

At the critical moment, a star appeared on Hua Yunfei’s brow, blocking this green lotus. He was like a moving light, a fleeting shadow, merging with the void and instantly moving far away.

“It’s impossible for you to leave!” Ye Fan snapped. The Yin Yang Diagram unleashed, erupting like a volcano and roaring as it cut off the path ahead, slicing through the heavens.

BOOM!

The powerful Yin Yang phenomenon sealed off the heavens and earth, intending to trap Hua Yunfei within. The Yang Diagram and Yin Diagram bined, pressing down simultaneously.

DING!

A light sound, and that star flew out again, striking the Yin Yang Diagram and resisting this Sealing Heaven Power. Hua Yunfei decisively flew backward.

Everything happened too fast. The onlookers were dazzled, unable to prehend or keep up with their speed, as both moved like beams of light.

BOOM!

The Brocade River and Mountain Phenomenon emerged, a small world where Ye Fan stood alone, his messy hair flying, like a Demon God, suppressing Hua Yunfei below. A ruthless sneer touched his lips as his golden hand transformed into the Heavenly Stele and struck down. The void fractured, black fissures extending into the distance.

Hua Yunfei’s star was dazzling and brilliant, burning like a sun, illuminating the entirety of Yan’s capital and blinding everyone. He fiercely resisted the Brocade River and Mountain Phenomenon; otherwise, once caught within the Holy Body Phenomenon, he would face almost certain death. This was a shared belief, supported by countless legends.

DONG!

The Phenomenon was blocked, but Ye Fan’s hand still pressed down. Hua Yunfei, unable to avoid it, was shrouded in Divine Light as a natural image of the Dao emerged; he could only endure.

BOOM!

Ye Fan repeatedly struck with his golden hand. The power was terrifying, making many distant observers shudder. Such force could reduce even Dragon Transformation Secret Realm cultivators to pulp.

DONG! DONG! …

Earth-shattering sounds echoed as Ye Fan struck nine times. Hua Yunfei coughed up nine mouthfuls of fresh blood, his face inparably pale, his body on the verge of breaking, having suffered heavy injuries.

Yet Ye Fan was shocked. This adversary is too fearsome! Even Dragon Transformation Secret Realm Elders would face certain death if forced into such close proximity! However, Hua Yunfei took the blows with his physical body. His form did not crumble, and he continuously pulled away, beginning to channel immense magical power.

BOOM!

That star flickered, akin to a colossal entity awakening, like an ancient king revived, brimming with a frightening aura.

“Oh my! The Supreme Mysterious Star Peak’s Supreme Treasure! The seal has unlocked a layer!” the observers exclaimed.

“This treasure is incredibly terrifying, refined from a real star and capable of suppressing world-shaking powerhouses!” Many people’s faces changed.

Hua Yunfei swiftly retreated, his face ashen. He had spat out more than ten mouthfuls of fresh blood. Immense magical power surged forth like a vast ocean, threatening to engulf Ye Fan. Especially that star—it obstructed the Brocade River and Mountain Phenomenon, radiating countless star gleams and severing the sky, keeping Ye Fan out and unable to approach.

“The sacred body’s physical form is too terrifying! Any powerful adversary forced into close proximity with him can only suffer a bitter defeat. Hua Yunfei managing to endure is truly astounding.”

“Although Hua Yunfei has some reputation, there have been no rumors of astonishing battle achievements. Yet he withstands the sacred body’s physical form—it’s truly shocking!”

Many exclaimed in surprise, some unable to believe what they were seeing. Despite Hua Yunfei coughing up more than ten mouthfuls of fresh blood and being heavily injured, people did not feel he was at a disadvantage. After all, the sacred body’s physical form was unmatched in the world; surviving such close bat was already a miracle.

Ye Fan sighed lightly. Hua Yunfei’s strength surpasses my expectations. Even in close bat, he didn’t die but still spat blood and fled.

“Brother Ye, what do you mean by this?” Hua Yunfei asked, his blue robe stained with spots of blood. Yet he remained ethereal and posed, even in such circumstances. “We have no old grievances nor recent hatred. Why do you seek my life?”

“Ye Fan, why indeed?” Li Xiaoman also questioned from afar. “Senior Hua heard you were entering the Ancient Desolation Forbidden Land and traveled tens of thousands of miles to Yan’s capital, all to see you off. Yet you wish to kill him…”

“Step aside. This is none of your business,” Ye Fan said, glancing at Li Xiaoman. He then pressed forward, step by step. The world trembled rhythmically with his movements, and his powerful aura made everyone shudder.

“You…” Li Xiaoman found it hard to stay calm.

In Yan’s capital, many cultivators had arrived. The battle involving the sacred body was particularly captivating; Ye Fan had recently been at the center of attention. No one knew why the two were battling, but all were extremely expectant, hoping to witness a fierce clash.

“Brother Ye, do you truly wish to battle me?” Hua Yunfei sighed. He removed his blood-stained blue robe and tossed it aside.

“You came to Yan’s capital precisely to kill me, so why the pretense? However, you haven’t had time to set your plan,” Ye Fan stated calmly.

“Brother Ye, why say such things? Why would I want to kill you?” Hua Yunfei asked, looking surprised and quite puzzled.

“Do you think it was foolproof? I have long known everything,” Ye Fan sneered, exerting psychological pressure on his opponent.

“I don’t understand what you’re saying,” Hua Yunfei said, a hint of firmness in his calm voice. “But I know Brother Ye is determined to fight me. Though I am not very talented, I am not afraid of anyone.”

“Don’t pretend to be innocent. You’re not far from being an enemy of the world,” Ye Fan said with a faint smile.

BUZZ!

He struck again, his golden fist sweeping through the heavens, aiming at Hua Yunfei in the sky. This was a life-and-death battle; everyone could feel the chilling killing intent.

DING!

The strings of the zither were plucked as Hua Yunfei launched his offensive. His heroic aura was overwhelming, sweeping away his previous posure. He sat cross-legged in the void, his hands caressing the ancient zither.

“Since that’s the case, Brother Ye, I will acpany you in battle!”

DING DING DONG DONG…

The sound of the zither was like celestial music, yet it concealed a trace of terrifying killing intent. Strands of light shot from the strings, striking at Ye Fan’s golden fist.

TANG!

This was sharper than Sword Qi, able to obliterate cultivators at the Great Perfection Realm, changing the expressions of many spectators.

“Hua Yunfei is unexpectedly strong! The sound of his zither can kill invisibly!”

“If not for the sacred body’s strong physique, ordinary people would be torn to shreds by this zither music!”

BOOM!

Within Ye Fan, his enormous Qi surged. His body, as if cast from gold, radiated Divine Radiance, even his hair gleaming with golden brilliance. He merged with the Immortal King’s Nine Heavens and charged forward mightily. The zither music was like knives, layered countless times, but under his Golden Blood Qi, it all dispersed into nothingness, unable to harm him in the slightest.

“Brother Ye, you surprise me. Having only recently entered the Four Extremes Realm, you already hold dominance over your peers.” Hua Yunfei’s voice was gentle. His fingers plucked the strings deftly, the rhythm suddenly changing, the melody pletely different.

Phoenix Cry Moves the Nine Heavens!

At this moment, the zither music vanished, leaving only the sound of the Phoenix Cry echoing through Yan’s capital, penetrating the sky. Nine Divine Phoenixes could be clearly seen rushing out from the ancient zither. They spread their wings and soared, stunningly beautiful yet exuding an extremely terrifying aura, like real divine spirits descending into the mortal world.

“This is a lost ancient melody, known as the Nine Tribulations Phoenix Song! It’s considered Divine Sound, directly attacking the very source of life, destroying all vitality. Its mysteries are immeasurable.”

“Truly the Nine Tribulations Phoenix Song! Heavens above, it has reappeared in the mortal world! It vanished for at least tens of thousands of years! It merges with the Dao, its power boundless, obliterating all enemies!”

Many exclaimed in shock, all showing frightened expressions. The waves emanating from the nine Divine Phoenixes were irresistibly powerful, giving an overwhelming sense of invincibility.

A chill went through Ye Fan. The nine Divine Phoenixes possess boundless magical power! They’re transforming into beams of light and charging at me, directly aiming at my sacred body’s Life Origin! At this moment, even his golden Sea of Bitterness was boiling. The nine Divine Phoenixes seemed ready to penetrate his body, their cries shaking the Nine Heavens, threatening to destroy all vitality.

TANG! TANG! …

Ye Fan resisted with his physical body, his golden palms flashing with Innate Patterns as he battled fiercely with the nine Divine Phoenixes, killing intent soaring to the clouds.

BOOM!

The Brocade River and Mountain Phenomenon burst forth. Ye Fan, not wishing to waste time, directly imprisoned the nine Divine Phoenixes, then punched them one by one, shattering them into dust. This shocked everyone. This was the legendary Nine Tribulations Phoenix Song, its divine might formidable beyond measure, yet he had destroyed it punch by punch.

Hua Yunfei sighed gently, like a sorrowful deity. He then continuously plucked the strings nine times, wielding a wondrous, mighty power that tore the sky as if it were paper. The Nine Tribulations within the Phoenix Song truly emerged: these were the gates to nine small worlds, opening in the cosmos, surging down with an exterminating Qi Mechanism.

“A divine melody! The divine melody that evolved Heavenly Tribulations!”

Nine Heavenly Tribulations transformed into nine phoenixes, connecting nine small worlds. They traversed the heavens and earth, descending to suppress Ye Fan. This was an unparalleled killing intent. Few in this world could withstand nine Heavenly Tribulations, and no one’s expression remained unchanged. Of course, Ye Fan was an exception. He had recently endured many heavenly lightning strikes; perhaps only his constitution was least afraid of Heavenly Tribulations.

“If it were anyone else, they’d be doomed! Hua Yunfei is too terrifying!”

“This young man is usually so low-key. I didn’t expect him to be this formidable, likely not weaker than the Divine King Body and others!”

BOOM!

Ye Fan rose against the nine Heavenly Tribulations, leaving golden footprints in the sky as he rapidly pressed towards Hua Yunfei.

“Brother Ye, do you truly intend for us to fight to the death?” Hua Yunfei sighed lightly. He then slowly traced patterns in the void with his hands, the trajectory profound and inprehensible. The gates of the nine small worlds shook violently, as if nine divine beings were about to charge forth. Immeasurable, terrifying waves rolled down, covering the heavens.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a golden ocean rushed out from Ye Fan’s body, engulfing Hua Yunfei. Ye Fan had never exhibited this phenomenon before; he had always held it as a trump card. A green lotus floated within the golden ocean, primal chaos surging. It froze the gates of the nine small worlds and pressed towards Hua Yunfei.

BOOM!

Ye Fan swiftly moved in. All his Variations erupted concurrently, merging as one to suppress Hua Yunfei within!

“Ye Fan, you can’t recklessly kill the innocent!” Li Xiaoman shouted.
