Chapter 1723: Chapter 677: Never Seen Such a Villain

Under the night fog, the ground cracked open, revealing a massive pit filled with crimson eggshell fragments that glittered like blood diamonds, accompanied by intense flames.

A colossal fierce bird just charged out, blood mist billowing, but was instantly knocked back with even greater momentum, like a meteor crashing down.

In mid-air, the blood-stained feathers resembled dying evening clouds, both melancholy and splendid, turning into flames on landing and scorching the ground, melting the rocks.

Qin Ming’s physique was balanced and upright, his long black hair slightly glowing in the night, eyes bright; his feet seemed rooted in the ground, immobile, as he peacefully retracted his fist.

A large crowd behind watched wide-eyed.

What kind of creature was that? The mythical species—the Blood Phoenix, just reborn, already possessing Grandmaster Level Taoist skills; the mere aura suppressing some to weak knees, falling to the ground.

Yet, the Blood Phoenix was knocked down by that spirited man’s punch, smashing it back into the Nirvana Cave; the scene was shockingly impactful, nearly unbelievable.

The atmosphere was deathly quiet, not a sound from man or beast.

After a moment, someone with a trembling voice asked, "Did I...see that wrong?"

Another murmured, "Am I near death? Experiencing hallucinations in my final moments."

Then, someone shook their head forcefully, feeling unreal.

"That Brother Qin is actually unharmed!"

"This isn’t a dream; the terrifying creature just reborn in Nirvana was repelled!"

Some experienced intense emotional shifts, then shouted excitedly—a surely fatal situation now turned around, lifting their spirits from the Abyss to the heavens.

They watched that figure with fervent gazes.

Earlier, they thought, this boastful person must be insane, his spirit severely troubled before dying, alone confronting the massive beast—a suicidal gesture.

But surprisingly, his Taoist Technique was profound, able to subdue the legendary species with a fist.

Outside the Barrier, two elders seated high on a peak froze mid-toast, smiles vanishing, expressions solidifying.

The expected bloody scene of the Blood Phoenix feeding did not appear; the moment it rose, it was struck back underground by the graceful young man.

An elder furrowed his brow, saying, "There’s going to be trouble."

He sprang up abruptly but helplessly, constrained by rules, unable to intrude or intervene in the trial within that Primitive Mountain Range.

Another elder exclaimed, "What kind of monster is this?"

He couldn’t believe, just a guest, possessed such ability—knocking the Nirvana Blood Phoenix away with a punch. Is this even reasonable?

From which place was this Saint cultivated, daring to venture here?

Moreover, to the elders, he seemed to be an older Saint, already reaching the Grandmaster Domain; otherwise, how could he battle the Blood Phoenix?

Their expressions fluctuated, hearts sinking.

"He...surely wouldn’t act recklessly, would he?"

"This is a Primitive Mountain Range under our Xuanhuang Martial Hall; other top Dojo members can’t freely intrude for hunting."

They stared ahead, somewhat uneasy.

At Blood Phoenix Ridge, deep in the pit, sounds of cracking emerged, as if hard objects were breaking, listened closely, much like a giant beast chewing prey bones.

This sound alone was hair-raising, inducing goosebumps.

Moreover, the blood mist within the pit grew denser, billowing upward like smoke rising to the sky.

Dozens of people behind turned pale, mouths shut, nervously gazing at the front Earth Realm.

The sole comfort for their tension was that upright figure ahead, standing like an immovable mountain before disaster, inexplicably calming their hearts greatly.

In the pit, the Blood Phoenix was rapidly gnawing those translucent crimson eggshells, its beak open, engulfing all Nirvana-related substances.

Its feathers bristled, each like a blood-colored Divine Sword, entwined with Chixia, exuding sharpness, seemingly capable of splitting the Void.

Once more it raised its massive head, eyes fierce, emitting boundless Blood Evil Qi.

Although a mythical auspicious bird, after Nirvana vile and vicious, extremely fierce, regarding all creatures in this mountain ridge as prey, it urgently needed to feed.

Just rushing out, it was punched back; within it burned an eruptive flame, surpassing the outer Nirvana Fire.

It felt, mainly because it had just revived, in its weakest phase, thus suffering a great loss.

Now catching its breath, it swallowed the egg shells interwoven with Tao Patterns, Spirit Essence, accompanying its Nirvana; though difficult to consume, indeed its spirit improved greatly.

The Nirvana Blood Phoenix emerged; all monsters in the mountain stayed silent, hibernating, while the sky surged with clouds, Fierce gusts of wind shook, thunder booming deafening.

This was the grandeur of the mythical species, returning to this world, directly triggering phenomena.

Instantly, the dozens behind felt their hearts tremble, some bodies shivering uncontrollably.

Silently, the Blood Phoenix arrived mid-air, perched there, wings like twin evening clouds, emitting enchanting blood-colored light, seeming to distort the Void.

Then, it gave a long cry, blazing fire engulfing the sky, swallowing the front.

Instantly, the earth turned to magma, while a nearby stone mountain directly melted, merging into the ground’s boiling liquid.

The dozens behind upon witnessing this felt their scalps tingling.

That was no ordinary fire, the scarlet flames bearing patterns, capable of incinerating everything, igniting Strong Person’s mana; creatures of the same realm found it hard to withstand.
