Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Dumbfounding the Fire Cloud Sect

"Chirp!" A long cry of the Flame Phoenix echoed through heaven and earth, with the searing high temperatures pressing down from the void.

The disciples of Fire Cloud Sect, upon seeing the giant flame bird formed in the void, all wore faces of horror, even more so than when they had seen Lin Yue dead and turned into a mummified corpse.

"This! This is our Fire Cloud Sect’s ultimate Martial Skill, Phoenix Soaring Nine Heavens! Brother Qu actually learned Phoenix Soaring Nine Heavens!" The flaming bird soaring in the void was indeed in the shape of a Flame Phoenix.

"Our Fire Cloud Sect has passed down Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens from generation to generation, with very few in each generation able to comprehend it. And now, only our Sect Leader knows this supreme skill! Not even our Elders have mastered it. Brother Qu, who has realized Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, may already surpass Senior Brother Wei of the Four-star Martial Sect Master Realm!"

"It seems that the position of the future Sect Leader of our Fire Cloud Sect belongs to none other than Brother Qu!"

..

In the void, that huge swath of white Sword Qi collided violently with the Flame Phoenix. "Boom!"

The booming sound echoed, shaking even the Blood-colored Desert beneath them and the space around them. However, immediately after, their faces expressed even more horror. The ultimate skill of Fire Cloud Sect, Phoenix Soaring Nine Heavens! The Flame Phoenix in the void was split from head to body by the enormous white Sword Qi, and the immense white Sword Qi continued to pierce through the body of the Flame Phoenix, pressing down towards the people below. The Flame Phoenix immediately vanished into the void.

"No! No! No!" The people of Fire Cloud Sect let out unwilling roars. They found it hard to accept, hard to believe what they were seeing was real. The ultimate skill of the Fire Cloud Sect, Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, had been breached.

"How can this be! How can this be!" As the one who performed Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, Brother Qu found it even harder to believe, harder to accept. His proudest Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, the number one Martial Skill of our Fire Cloud Sect, had been broken! This was his only capital in the competition for the position of Sect Leader! "I don’t believe it! It must be an illusion technique!"

The remaining six people of Fire Cloud Sect stood stunned, shocked, disbelieving, unable to accept! Yet, they seemed to forget the incoming danger as the enormous white Sword Qi enveloped all of them, and then suddenly, it struck down!

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!" Cries of unwillingness, helplessness, pain, and horror arose. The ground shook, violent energy rampaged in all directions, and the sky filled with blood-colored sand and dust, but soon, everything returned to calm.

The blood-colored dust settled! In front of them lay the blood-colored desert, filled with bodies lying in disarray, clothes torn, bodies bloody and mangled, some missing limbs, others faces unrecognizable.

"Cough cough.. cough cough.." Two harsh coughing sounds rang out, and a figure slowly stirred. That body was none other than Brother Qu.

"Cough cough.. cough cough.." Although Brother Qu’s limbs were intact at the moment, his clothes were in tatters, his hair messy, completely lacking his previous calm and cold demeanor, looking no different from a beggar.

Brother Qu slowly straightened his upper body, his eyes lifeless and scattered, not believing that everything that had happened to him was real. He kept muttering under his breath, "This isn’t real, none of this is real, it’s an illusion, an Illusion Technique, it must be!"

Suddenly, Brother Qu’s face twisted viciously, and like a fierce beast, he glared furiously at Shi Feng and roared, "You! What evil magic did you use on me? If you dare, fight me fairly!"

"Hmph!" Hearing his words, Shi Feng curled his lips in a contemptuous sneer and slowly walked toward him, "What’s wrong, scum? Can’t accept how easily you were defeated? I’ve said before, as an opponent of mine, do you even qualify?"

"No! No! Aaah!" As if driven mad, Brother Qu bellowed before suddenly tasting saltiness in his throat as blood spurted from his mouth, "Blood! Blood!" Staring dumbfounded at the blood gushing out and splattering on himself, he screamed, "No! It’s fake! All of this is fake!"

Brother Qu screamed again in frenzy, watching Shi Feng steadily approach. His body once more erupted in fierce flames like a flame fierce beast charging toward Shi Feng.

"Struggling in vain?" Watching the man turned into a blaze charging toward him, Shi Feng casually swung his sword. Brother Qu’s flames immediately dispersed, and Shi Feng, with another casual thrust of his sword, stabbed toward Brother Qu.

"Aah! No no! Don’t kill me! You can’t kill me!" Seeing his own flames easily extinguished, and watching the blood-colored longsword stabbing toward him, Brother Qu panicked and his body, initially lunging forward, suddenly flew backward. However, Shi Feng’s sword was faster than his retreating figure, stabbing straight into his chest!

"Aah! No!"

"Thud!" With one thrust, the sword pierced through Brother Qu’s chest and exited from his back.

"You! You!" Brother Qu’s body arched, his face twisted ferociously as he glared at Shi Feng. Suddenly, his blood boiled and surged toward his chest, flowing into the Bloodthirsty Sword, and through the Bloodthirsty Sword into Shi Feng’s hands, quickly being absorbed by Shi Feng. Brother Qu’s body rapidly deflated like a punctured ball.

At that moment, blood from the other five corpses of the Fire Cloud Sect also burst forth wildly, forming a blood-colored wave in the void, converging into Shi Feng’s body, and was soon absorbed.

Sensing the energy now within his body, Shi Feng found that if he killed another one-star Martial Sect Realm cultivator, he should be able to break through to the Six-star Martial Emperor Realm.

Initially, after burning his Lifebound Essence Fire and killing Longg Hao of the Three-star Martial Monarch Realm, the energy to step into the Six-star from Five-star was already half-gathered. Having just killed these men from the Fire Cloud Sect, especially with a Two-star Martial Sect Realm Brother Qu among them, the energy in his body was now brimming, close to breaking through.

"Brother Shi Feng, you killed them all!" At that moment, Long Meng came up behind Shi Feng, looking at the shriveled corpses and spoke.

"Go collect the spoils of war," Shi Feng turned and said with a smile to Long Meng.

"Mm! Okay!" Upon hearing Shi Feng mention collecting spoils of war, Long Meng immediately smiled brightly. These men had all practiced Fire Attribute Cultivation Techniques and had just been after her Blood Pearl. With their realms and their numbers, they must have killed quite a few demon beasts in this desert, and those Blood Pearls probably held quite a stash by now.
