Elder Jin stared blankly at the illusory figure behind Su Xueqing, his face filled with shock.
The witch's phantom inexplicably reminded him of the scene of being hunted down in the Heavenly Realm, where he had no power to resist at all.
In the distance, Yan Ziping noticed that Elder Jin hadn't spoken for a long time, so he couldn't help but call out to him twice.
Elder Jin?
Elder Jin could vaguely hear Yan Ziping's call, and when he turned his head, he saw Su Xueqing rushing towards him.
To win the Golden-Winged Bird, the two of them fought with all their might, neither wanting to lose to the other.
"Rumble..."
The sky was covered with dark clouds.
This witch's phantom could actually trigger strange phenomena in the world, so it was clear that it possessed considerable power.
Elder Jin dared not underestimate him. He concentrated all his spiritual power in his hands and unleashed a powerful strike.
"boom..."
In a single exchange, Elder Jin was actually forced back several steps by Su Xueqing's illusory figure.
If it weren't for the powerful spiritual energy within him, this move could have annihilated his soul and spirit.
Seeing Elder Jin take a few steps back, Su Xueqing sneered, "I thought you were so powerful."
Elder Jin looked up at the thunderclouds in the sky and understood that a large part of the witch's phantom power came from these thunderclouds.
"Don't be too arrogant. You only think that the Crimson Flame Sect has no strong experts. Otherwise, with your strength, you could be wiped out in the blink of an eye."
Su Xueqing listened to what Elder Jin said but didn't respond to his words.
They came here precisely because they knew there was no one around; otherwise, they wouldn't have been so eager to come.
"If you can escape from my grasp, then you can talk about your Crimson Flame Sect."
The power in his hand gradually gathered, and he swung it fiercely towards Su Xueqing's head.
In contrast, she slowly raised her hand, and the witch phantom behind her also raised her hand.
An extremely powerful spiritual force formed in the center of her palm and struck towards Elder Jin.
"boom..."
A loud bang was heard, and the oppressive force gradually fell from the sky to the ground, causing many trees to snap in response.
The disciples around them were even more unable to withstand such power; they were all pressed hard to the ground and didn't even have the strength to get up.
In the sky, the calamity clouds gradually approached, bringing an immense sense of oppression to Su Xueqing.
Elder Jin looked at his palms and frowned slightly: "I clearly haven't reached the cultivation level, so why are there tribulation clouds in the sky?"
Not only did he find it strange, but Su Xueqing was also surprised, staring blankly at the witch's phantom image behind her.
Although her spiritual energy was abundant, it was far from being enough to break through to the next level.
The tribulation clouds in the sky were a bit strange; they appeared out of thin air even though no one was undergoing tribulation.
"call out..."
Elder Jin landed in front of Yan Ziping, his voice unusually stern: "All disciples must leave and are not allowed to remain here."
"them..."
"This elder told you to leave this place, don't you understand?"
Seeing that the tribulation clouds were gathering faster and faster, and that they would not be able to escape if the tribulation clouds were to take shape, they realized that they were not strong enough to escape.
When Yan Ziping saw Elder Jin roaring at him, how could he not know that Elder Jin had already seen that there was danger here?
He gritted his teeth and looked at his disciples again: "All disciples, listen to my command and leave this place as soon as possible."
The disciples exchanged glances, agreed, and ran down the mountain.
Su Xueqing watched them leave without trying to stop them.
They came to the Crimson Flame Sect solely for the Golden-Winged Bird; the lives and deaths of others were of almost no concern to them.
Whether they live or die, they don't care.
Looking up at the mournful cry of the golden-winged bird not far away, he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, he still hasn't come out."
If Xiao Feng were to emerge from the Golden-Winged Bird's body, he would surely come to him.
They haven't come out yet, which means they've obviously encountered some serious trouble.
For some reason, she actually felt a little bit of regret.
If she hadn't let Xiao Feng make a move, the two of them might have had a chance to leave this place.
But now... there's absolutely no chance left.
"This perfect cultivation partner actually died just like that?"
"roar..."
The golden-winged bird let out another mournful cry, and the wounds on its body visibly grew much larger.
Elder Jin watched this scene and felt a sharp pain in his chest.
"What exactly did you do to the golden-winged bird?"
Su Xueqing turned around and saw Elder Jin's miserable state, and many guesses popped into her mind: "Could it be..."
"Creak..."
The sound of bones breaking came from the Golden-Winged Bird's body, and Su Xueqing could see the shadow of the Flowing Light Sword.
"Xiao Feng? He's still alive?"
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that Xiao Feng could survive being swallowed up.
"Bang..."
The golden-winged bird exploded in mid-air, and a figure covered in blood slowly appeared in everyone's sight.
When Elder Jin felt the Golden-Winged Bird shatter into pieces, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, and he became quite weak.
Without a physical body, his strength is reduced exponentially.
If he were to use that kind of strength against Su Xueqing, he probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move.
Behind him, Yan Ziping stared wide-eyed at Xiao Feng, who was actually standing in mid-air: "That kid... didn't I see him die with my own eyes?"
He had never forgotten that Xiao Feng died inside the belly of the Golden-Winged Bird.
Beside him, the other disciples pulled and tugged at Yan Ziping, urging him to leave as soon as possible.
The oppressive force of the tribulation clouds made them afraid to even move.
If I were locked onto by this calamity cloud, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to save my life.
Yan Ziping watched as his disciples kept shoving him, and with a look of impatience, he forcefully knocked the nearest disciple away.
"Why? Why did he survive? I refuse to accept this! I refuse to accept this!"
The disciples all understood that Yan Ziping was being groomed as a genius by the Crimson Flame Sect, and when he saw someone even more talented, he naturally couldn't bear it.
"boom..."
The tribulation clouds emitted layers of lightning. The disciples could not let Yan Ziping die here, so they gritted their teeth and took him away.
If the Crimson Flame Sect is destroyed by this calamity cloud, they will be the last remaining force.
Su Xueqing was overjoyed to see Xiao Feng emerge.
Just as she was about to approach, Xiao Feng sat cross-legged on the ground.
When she saw Xiao Feng doing this, her face was full of surprise: "What...what are you doing?"
He had many doubts in his heart and did not understand what Xiao Feng meant by doing so.
"boom..."
A bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, struck down from the sky and landed heavily around Xiao Feng.
"Bang..."
The spiritual energy barrier surrounding Xiao Feng's body intercepted the attack, dissolving the power of the thunderclouds into nothingness.
If Su Xueqing still can't discern the origin of this tribulation cloud, then her Paradise Palace has probably been opened in vain.
"This...the tribulation clouds actually belong to Xiao Feng? He's actually undergoing tribulation?"
Absorbing so much spiritual energy from the Golden-Winged Bird's body is just the right time to accumulate this power and break through to a new realm.
