Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Xu Xiaolan was stunned. Then, a warm feeling gradually welled up in her heart.

She’d have never thought that, in order to protect her dignity, An Lin would actually do something as extraordinary as forcing the Great Empress Vermilion Bird to kneel down first.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird was momentarily dazed. Then, her entire body began to tremble in fury.

Since when had she ever kneeled to someone before? The Six Vermilion Bird Sages were at the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage, and they could be considered as the strongest cultivators under the God of Creation Stage. When they saw the Great Empress Vermilion Bird, however, they still acted like lowly dogs who only knew how to praise their owner. Who could force her to kneel?

She was one of the Four Holy Beasts, and she possessed an eternal and undying Holy Berth. She was the holiest, proudest, and noblest being of the world. How could she possibly kneel toward someone else?

Right now, however, she was kneeling toward a b*stard mixed-blood human…

Even An Lin didn’t know how traumatic such an experience would be for the Great Empress Vermilion Bird.

“Puh…” The Great Empress Vermilion Bird was overwhelmed by rage, and she involuntarily spat out a mouthful of blood. The wounds on her body split open, and large amounts of blood started to spray through the air. Each drop of her blood was as valuable as a divine-rank material.

A glaring fracture had already appeared on her dao heart.

The extremely proud Great Empress Vermilion Bird had actually kneeled toward a human… The mental damage that this caused was no lesser than if she had been killed by someone.

“I’m going to kill you!” White and gold flames erupted from the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s body as she howled in rage. Then, bringing with them a might that was capable of incinerating all matter, the flames viciously surged toward An Lin, who was standing behind her.

“You’re playing with fire before me?” As An Lin stepped back in retreat, a crimson divine halo suddenly materialized above his head. It possessed an absolute nomological power, and it instantly enveloped all the flames that were surging toward him.

As if receiving an absolute order, the violent white and gold holy flames instantly stopped in the void.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s body shuddered slightly. Flames that appeared as if they could purify all matter flickered before her eyes.

“I… the Vermilion Bird… am the true ruler of flames!” She suddenly let out a high-pitched cry that was impossible for humans to emulate. This was an ethereal and transcendent sound.

An Lin suddenly felt his absolute control over the flames disappear. Right now, an extremely transcendent being was fighting him for the right to control the flames. Moreover, this being also possessed a powerful and supreme heavenly god power.

The Great Empress Vermilion Bird unfurled her incredibly beautiful wings.

Then, with her feet naked, she slowly walked toward An Lin. With each step she took, a brilliant lotus would blossom in the void. Moreover, each lotus possessed a power that was capable of destroying an entire realm. They blossomed like raging flames, and they radiated with a might that was both terrifying and astounding.

“I was born in the universe and chaos. I am eternal, and I am undying. I govern the flames of heaven and earth, and I command the billions of feathers1 that exist throughout the realms… Even if heaven shatters and earth crumbles, I’ll still be able to protect this Southern Realm. I’ll still be able to ensure the eternity of the holy might… With what can you challenge me?”

A Vermilion Bird-shaped holy symbol materialized on the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s forehead. She made a grabbing motion toward the void, and the holy flames that had been stopped by An Lin immediately burst to life again. Then, they continued to surge toward An Lin!

This was the first time An Lin had lost control of an element after activating the corresponding heavenly god power.

His expression changed drastically, and he instantly unsheathed and slashed down with his Evil-Slaying Sword.

The holy flame was sliced into two, yet it quickly fused back together. Moreover, its power wasn’t weakened a single bit as it continued to surge toward An Lin with a devastating holy might.

Not only did this flame possess the origin power of the Vermilion Bird, but it even possessed the eternally undying attribute of the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s Holy Berth!

For the first time in this battle, An Lin started to feel the heat. He was clearly the Heavenly Fire God, the ultimate ruler of the flame dao. However, he could do absolutely nothing about the white and gold flames that were rushing toward him.

“Die!” The Great Empress Vermilion Bird resented An Lin so much that even her beautiful face had started to distort slightly. She clapped her hands together, and the undying holy flames that were surrounding An Lin instantly exploded with a deafening boom.

Boom!

The earth tremored violently. Like a continually expanding sun, a ball of white flames furiously engulfed and destroyed everything in the surroundings.

Heat-resisting plants, powerful flame beasts, smoldering terrains… Without exception, everything in the surroundings was incinerated by the voracious ball of white flames.

However, in the center of this holy flame “sun”, several gusts of vicious wind and snow blades suddenly tore open a passageway.

Heavenly Weather Power!

With a single thought, An Lin could manipulate a myriad of meteorological phenomena.

Since he was unable to control the fire, An Lin decided to use his other abilities to fight against the Great Empress Vermilion Bird. In any case, apart from his heavenly fire power, An Lin still had another six heavenly god powers that he could use!

The wind and snow carved open a path.

An Lin’s body transformed into a bolt of Golden Void Lightning as he dashed toward the Great Empress Vermilion Bird at a terrifying speed. At the same time, his fist was imbued with the billowing powers of the five elements as lashed out at the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s face.

His speed was bestowed by the heavenly lightning power, and his strength was granted by his perfected body of the War God. When these two powers combined together, the might that was unleashed by An Lin could even exceed the might that was unleashed by the attacks of ordinary Gods of Creation!

“You’re actually able to rip open my holy flames?” The Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s face twisted in fury as she threw a punch of her own. It looked as though there was no force behind her strike, yet heaven and earth were instantly plunged into darkness.

Boom!

Rings of energy shockwaves erupted outward, destroying everything that lay in their path.

The powers of the five elements were clashing and colliding with the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s brute power.

An Lin’s strike this time was far more powerful than the strike that he had launched during his previous surprise attack. At that time, he managed to cripple the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s hand. This time, however, their powers were very evenly matched!

Not only could the Great Empress Vermilion Bird play with fire, but even her physical strength was incredibly fearsome when she unleashed its full power. To An Lin’s surprise, she was even able to match it evenly with his body of the Five Elemental, the enhancement technique that he received after perfecting the body of the War God! An Lin’s plan to target the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s physical weakness became completely useless.

After colliding together, both of them were sent stumbling back by an enormous power.

An Lin knew that the Great Empress Vermilion Bird could unleash even more devastating powers. However, even until now, the severe injuries that she had received in the battle against Pangu still hadn’t fully recovered yet. Moreover, the Vermilion Bird Heart Essence had just been sliced apart by him, and this further added an extra layer of severe wounds to the Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s already injured body. It was only because of these reasons that An Lin was evenly matched with her.

As An Lin pondered over these matters, countless crimson-colored flame feathers suddenly pierced toward his body.

Unexpectedly, the Great Empress Vermilion Bird had launched another volley of attacks as she retreated. Her wings beat rapidly as countless blood-red feathers shot out from her body.

Like the sharpest of divine weapons, each feather was capable of tearing through all matter.

An Lin’s heart jolted, and he immediately abandoned the thought of defending with his body. He slashed his Evil-Slaying Sword through the air and formed an air-tight sword projection net that blocked out all of the razor-sharp flame feathers.

However, the might that was possessed by the flame feathers was far too terrifying. Each time a feather collided into the sword projection net, it was as if a God of Creation had unleashed their most powerful strike on the net. The devastating shockwaves of the collisions caused a tearing pain to shoot through An Lin’s arms.

Eventually, a flame feather managed to slip through An Lin’s defenses and viciously stab into his waist. Not only was the tip of the feather as hard as a divine tool, but it even possessed a holy Vermilion Bird power that was capable of melting and penetrating through all matter.

Rip…

An Lin’s body of the War God was ripped open. As the flame feather pierced into his body, a wisp of Vermilion Bird origin power slipped into his wound and entered his body.

An Lin was just about to destroy this wisp of power.

At this moment, the Great Empress Vermilion Bird suddenly started to laugh. “I’ve finally managed to catch you…”

Origin blood essence spurted out from her body and condensed into a crimson-red holy symbol in mid-air. The dazzling glow that radiated from it enveloped both her and An Lin.

“Blood Sacrifice Vermilion Bird Holy Sealing Technique—Boundless Reincarnation Fire!

“Construct of Karma—Spatial Displacement!”

Just as An Lin was about to resist, he discovered that there was a burst of Vermilion Bird power that was doing everything in its ability to teleport him to another location. In fact, this Vermilion Bird power was imbued with an enormous amount of essential power. Under its immense attack, the remnant Vermilion Bird power in An Lin’s body was linked to the Vermilion Bird power that existed in the outside world. An Lin was momentarily stunned by this sudden and ferocious attack.

When An Lin came to his senses again, he had already been teleported to another location in the Vermilion Bird Star System.

To be more precise, he had been teleported toward a devastatingly mighty sun!
