Chapter 1595: Firebird Phenomenon

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Big Brother Duan, you don’t have to care about what they say.” When Feng Tian Wu heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, she, naturally, thought his pride was hurt, leading him to make such a hasty decision.

In her opinion, her progress these few years could be considered as extremely fast.

Although her Big Brother Duan used to be stronger than her, it might not be the case now. If they really fought, and she had intentionally shown mercy, they would end up being the subject of ridicule. After all, there were many Saint Stage powerhouses present on the scene who would be able to see if she unleashed all her strength or not. If she had intentionally shown mercy, things might get even worse for her Big Brother Duan.

To sum it up, just like the others, Feng Tian Wu did not feel Duan Ling Tian would be able to defeat her. However, she did not care if Duan Ling Tian was strong or not. Even if Duan Ling Tian was just an ordinary person, her love for him would remain unchanged since she loved him, not his cultivation base.

“Tian Wu, you’ve misunderstood. You’ve known me for so long, don’t tell me you don’t even know what kind of person I am. I don’t care what they think of me… However, I heard that your cultivation base has made tremendous progress after these few years, and in just six months, you’ve even climbed up to the 23rd spot in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion’s Heaven Rankings. I’m truly curious. Why don’t you seize this opportunity and show me what you’ve achieved?” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile. He was not angered by the people’s opinion of him.

When Feng Tian Wu heard his words, her attention was focused on Duan Ling Tian’s eyes. When she saw the confidence in his eyes, her heart was in turmoil. This was not her first time seeing such a look in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes.

‘Could it be that Big Brother Duan also has a fortuitous encounter after he came to the Dao Martial Saint Land?’ Feng Tian Wu thought to herself.

Since her Big Brother Duan came today with the identity of the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan to challenge her, she believed he must have heard about her achievements and knew she was strong enough to enter the top ten in the Heaven Ranking.

The truth was she indeed could enter the top ten in the Heaven Ranking anytime she wanted with her current strength.

When she saw how confident her Big Brother Duan was, she knew instantly that he must have had a fortuitous encounter like she did after he came to the Dao Martial Saint Land. Moreover, he was confident he could defeat her as well.

Feng Tian Wu no longer rejected him and merely nodded instead.

The eyes of everyone present on the scene, including Zi Yun, the Sect Leader of Drift Blaze Sect, lit up immediately. Their eyes were as bright as the stars lighting up the night sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A few moments later, the group of people watching at the side retreated a little to make space for Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu’s battle. All of their eyes were focused on Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu who were about to fight.

“I can’t believe Master Duan from Situ Clan would insist on fighting Lady Feng even after she wanted to concede defeat. Could it be he’s confident he’ll be able to win?” Many people who initially did not think very highly of Duan Ling Tian began to have doubts.

“That might not be the case! Perhaps, Duan Ling Tian thinks Lady Feng will be lenient, and he just wants to put on a show for us,” another person chimed in.

“Put on a show? Hurmph! Don’t forget there are many seniors here who are at the Saint Stage… It’ll be easy to tell if Lady Feng is intentionally being lenient and showing mercy.”

“That’s right! If Lady Feng really shows mercy, Duan Ling Tian will be even more humiliated!”

The group of people whispered among each other. Although they were not loud, their words were still heard by Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu.

A frown immediately appeared on Feng Tian Wu’s face. On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian was completely calm. It was as though he was not bothered by the words at all. In fact, he really was not bothered by those words at all.

Show mercy?

Although he did not know how powerful Tian Wu was currently, he was confident in his own strength. Moreover, he did not lie earlier. He really did want to know how powerful Tian Wu was. He knew she was strong, but he would only know how strong she was if they fought.

“Tian Wu, you can attack. There’s no need to be lenient. You can go all out!” Duan Ling Tian said to Feng Tian Wu through Voice Transmission as he looked at her.

“Big Brother Duan, are you really confident? With my current strength, it’s not a problem for me to enter the top ten in the Heaven Ranking,” Feng Tian Wu could not help but ask through Voice Transmission.

“Don’t worry.” Duan Ling Tian’s reply assured Feng Tian Wu.

At this instant, Feng Tian Wu also began to make her move. When she raised both of her slender hands, a scorching True Energy suddenly surged out of her body.

That was right. Her True Energy was scorching hot!

Feng Tian Wu’s True Energy was different from ordinary Saint Rudiment Stage Martial Cultivators. It emitted a scorching hot aura that could clearly be felt by people standing far away.

“Her True Energy has her attribute… Feng Tian Wu’s cultivation base is just a step away from the Saint Stage!” At this moment, the hearts of the Saint Stage powerhouses from the various sects jolted. They were all baffled.

As Saint Stage powerhouses, they, naturally, knew what Feng Tian Wu’s blazing hot True Energy meant. Since her True Energy had reached this level, coupled with her innate talent, she would need a year at the most to break through to the Saint Stage!

At this time, even Old Man Yin from Skywreck Sect regretted his previous action of belittling Duan Ling Tian. If he had known earlier that Feng Tian Wu’s cultivation base had reached such a level, he would not have risked offending Feng Tian Wu just to derive pleasure from insulting Duan Ling Tian. It was unfortunate there was no cure for regret in this world.

As the blazing True Energy surged out from Feng Tian Wu, causing the air to look like it was burning, a gigantic sword that emitted faint flames consolidated above her head as well. The aura from the sword seemed as though it was able to burn everything.

Apart from the gigantic sword, a gigantic beast also appeared above her head. It was a flying-type beast. The beast had blood-red energy gleaming around its body. Other than that, flames seemed to be burning faintly on its body as well.

The moment it appeared, it caused the air that was already hot to turn even hotter. It was to the extent where some Drift Blaze Sect’s disciples with a lower cultivation base had to retreat far away because they could not endure the scorching aura. Their eyes were filled with admiration as they looked at Feng Tian Wu.

This was their Drift Blaze Sect’s Lady Feng, the pride of the entire Drift Blaze Sect!

At this moment, all of them were proud to be a member of the Drift Blaze Sect!

“This is… a Phoenix?” When Duan Ling Tian saw the flying-type gigantic beast above Feng Tian Wu’s head, he could not help but feel baffled. The gigantic beast was at least 70% to 80% similar to the Phoenix he was familiar with in his past life.

“Elder Huo, is this a Phoenix?” Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask Elder Huo who was in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

Elder Huo was a Three-legged Golden Crow, an ancient Variant Beast, and he was very experienced and knowledgeable. Due to this reason, Duan Ling Tian was almost certain Elder Huo would be able to identify if the Giant Beast Phenomenon that Tian Wu had consolidated was a Phoenix or not.

“This is a firebird, a subspecies of the Phoenix… It seems like this world doesn’t only have Divine Dragons, it has Phoenixes as well.” Elder Huo’s voice entered Duan Ling Tian’s ear in a timely manner. “This girl is quite lucky. She actually managed to obtain the blood essence of a firebird. Moreover, the firebird she had solidified must not be an ordinary firebird as well.”

Firebird!

A subspecies of the Phoenix!

Duan Ling Tian finally understood. Although he did not know how Feng Tian Wu managed to encounter something so fortuitous, he still felt happy for her.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian discovered that the area within a 100-meter radius around Tian Wu suddenly turned scorching hot. Even he was enveloped in that scorching aura.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, scorching flames suddenly appeared around Feng Tian Wu in within a 100-meter radius. Although the flames seemed weak, when they merged, the terrifying aura turned even hotter.

Feng Tian Wu who was standing in the middle of the flaming Territory looked like a fire empress. It was obvious she controlled fire!

Whether it was her True Energy Consolidated Weapon, True Energy Consolidated Beast or True Energy Consolidated Territory, all of them were cast very quickly by Feng Tian Wu. It was so fast that some people could not even catch what was happening.

Whoosh!

Soon after, Feng Tian Wu began to make her move. The flames in her Territory surrounded her at the side. Strangely, it seemed as though it had turned into armor, guarding her as she charged at Duan Ling Tian at an extremely fast speed.

It was as though a fireball had passed through in her wake. A burnt smell could be smelt in the air.

“She’s really not showing any mercy!” Many of the Saint Stage powerhouses in the surrounding were shocked when they saw Feng Tian Wu make her move.

As Saint Stage powerhouses, they could see Feng Tian Wu did not show any mercy so far. Apart from that, judging from the strength she had unleashed, they felt she had a huge chance of winning even if she challenged those in the top five of the Heaven Ranking, let alone the top ten.

“Sect Leader Zi Yun really has obtained a good disciple.” Many of the Saint Stage powerhouses from various sects’ faces were filled with envy, jealousy, and annoyance when they looked at Zi Yun, the Sec Leader of the Drift Blaze Sect.

Zi Yun was already so powerful in her own right. Now, she even had a disciple who could easily defeat their disciples. All of them were green with envy.

“Lady Feng’s really powerful!”

“Judging by her stance, it seems like she’s really not showing any mercy… I wonder if the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan will be able to handle this!”

“I think it’s impossible!”

The group of people watched the arena with utmost concentration. They were all eager to see how Duan Ling Tian would fare in the face of such a strong Feng Tian Wu.

At this moment, it seemed like they could all see the scene of Duan Ling Tian being defeated in just one blow.
