Chapter 350: Phoenix Soaring Above Nine Skies

No!

They had to save her!

Luo Yunzhu, Chuling, and Zhang Tiancheng all leaped up without a care for the demonic beasts charging at them . Even if they could only act as human shields, they never wanted to see her die before their eyes .

At that very moment, when life and death were hanging by a single thread, a silhouette clad in white sped their way, crushing the demonic beasts with every step .

Lin Suyin could not take her eyes off Si Mobai as he descended from the skies like a god . She felt her heart stop momentarily . Had he come to save her?

Wherever Si Mobai went, bursts of spiritual energy exploded . Dozens of demonic beasts were blown apart, yet he did not even spare them a glance . He ignored them all as he swept toward Feng Tianlan, shoving Lin Suyin out of his way with a stream of spiritual force . He stretched out his big hands and circled Feng Tianlan’s slim waist, pulling her into his embrace, whispering, “Lan’er . ”

“Yunzhu!” Feng Tianlan screamed as she saw a monstrous demonic beast sneaking up on Luo Yunzhu, who was as pale as paper .

Si Mobai tightened his grip around Feng Tianlan’s slender waist as he flew toward Luo Yunzhu . He dealt a sharp blow of spiritual force to the beast, sending it flying . The demonic beast rolled in pain and was instantly blown to pieces .

Howl! Howl! Howl!

Beastly howls filled the air, and the skies trembled .

“Why did you come?” Feng Tianlan looked at the beasts attacking them . They were now surrounded by Stage 3 demonic beasts instead of Stage 1 creatures . Her expression darkened . The situation had quickly turned dire . It hadn’t been long, and these were only Stage 3 and 4 beasts . If they dragged this out any longer, she was sure that Stage 5 or 6 demonic beasts, spiritual beasts, or even divine beasts would soon follow .

Even Si Mobai would be no match for them . What lay ahead was certain death!

Si Mobai killed heaps of demonic beasts without even looking . He threw out ball after ball of spiritual energy . With a colossal boom, he pulverized dozens of wicked creatures in an instant . The sky was eerily crimson . It looked as if it were about to rain blood .

“As the mentor-in-charge, it is my responsibility to ensure my students’ safety,” he said . But the only one he really wanted to protect was Feng Tianlan .

Feng Tianlan could not bring herself to reply . Was he worried that she would feel burdened?

When they’d first started fighting, the day had been bright blue with drifting clouds . Now, the moon hung high in the night sky, and they were still fighting . More than ten hours had o, and the ferocious demonic beasts kept coming at them without any fear of pain or death . Wave after wave attacked tirelessly, and the beasts’ levels continued to climb .

Si Mobai and Feng Tianlan were about to exhaust their very last ounce of strength . If not for the Spirit Continuing Pill, they would have died at the claws of these monsters long ago . The wounds on their bodies were countless . However, with that strange vine healing her wounds and Si Mobai’s protection, Feng Tianlan was in much better condition than the other .

“Si Mobai, you should leave on your own . ” Feng Tianlan gasped for air like a fish out of water . She shot out beams of spiritual power, which had weakened considerably . They could not hold on any longer .

Si Mobai did not answer . Instead, he continued to fight off swarm after swarm of beasts, protecting Feng Tianlan and her friends . He could not bear to see her devastated by losing anyone she genuinely cared for .

“Si Mobai,” Feng Tianlan insisted solemnly .

Si Mobai’s eyes had turned red from all the killing . He said, “I can still hold on . We have fought our way through for a very good distance now . Just hang in there a little while longer . ”

He had killed more monsters than he could count in the dozen hours since he had arrived . He would take Feng Tianlan away from this place and make sure that she came to no harm . He would stay alive and well at her side .

Feng Tianlan looked at the endless pairs of green eyes glowing sinisterly in the dark . She recalled her previous life, where she had died a horrible death . A glaze of light washed over her eyes and then was quickly concealed . She would never succumb to fate before she had avenged herself . Mere demonic beasts—what was there to be afraid of?

Feng Tianlan bit her finger and blood gushed from the wound . She smeared the blood on her forehead, and the Phoenix Emblem immediately looked like it was coming alive . “Phoenix soaring above nine skies . ”

As her words fell, the borderless night flared blinding red, and a piercing phoenix whistle cut through the skies . The red light converged and slowly took the shape of a giant Fire Phoenix, gliding through the night sky on enormous wings . An overwhelming regality crashed down from above, swallowing everything in its way .

All of the beserk, rioting beasts fell on all fours . As they cowered, their bodies trembled in great fear . It looked as if they were bowing to the kingly phoenix .

Behind the demonic beasts, a smear of a shadow observed the fiery phoenix soaring in the distance . A dark shade of light flashed across his eyes .
