Nine Yang Life and Death Transformation

Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor flew into a rage and shouted, "Hmph! Aren't you far too arrogant and conceited? The Phoenix is ​​the patriarch of the bird race, with an incomparably revered status. How dare you lowly scoundrels covet it!"

The nine-headed demon lion, its eyes darting around, came up with a plan. It quickly approached the Demon Emperor and offered its advice: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, it would be better to send these two to the Flying Bird Clan first, and then let them deal with them as they see fit. This way, we can save ourselves a lot of trouble and also use someone else to do our dirty work. Why not do it?"

"Very well, the avian race has repeatedly disobeyed my orders, and they certainly need to be taught a lesson to serve as a warning to others! Here's what we'll do: you lead a troop to the avian race and let them know the consequences of disobeying this emperor." The Demon Emperor sat on his throne and spoke majestically, his sharp, eagle-like gaze sweeping across those below, making them afraid to look directly at him.

"I..." Upon hearing this, the nine-headed lion trembled involuntarily. Recalling the terrifying scene of having one of its heads severed when it fought the Chaos Demon Lord, it still felt lingering fear and its body trembled involuntarily.

"What? Do I have to personally take action?" The Demon Emperor frowned slightly, and an invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire palace, making everyone feel breathless.

"Your subordinate obeys, sir! I will take men there immediately." The nine-headed demon lion knew there was no way out at this point, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

A moment later, the Nine-Headed Lion Demon led a group of lesser demons to the agreed-upon location. From afar, he saw the burly, menacing Chaos Demon Lord waiting there. When the Chaos Demon Lord saw the Nine-Headed Lion Demon arrive, a glint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he laughed loudly, saying, "Haha, I didn't expect it to be you, a defeated general, who's come to die! Perfect, today we'll settle both old and new scores!" With that, he swung his enormous fist, creating a gust of wind, and pounced towards the Nine-Headed Lion Demon.

"Wait! I am not here to be your enemy, but to lead you two to the Bird Clan to find the Phoenix Flame." The Nine-Headed Lion shouted loudly and dodged the Chaos Demon Lord's attack.

Upon hearing this, the Chaos Demon Lord was slightly taken aback. He then stopped what he was doing, stared at the Nine-Headed Lion with suspicion for a while, and slowly lowered his fist, saying coldly, "Hmph, that's for the best. If you dare to play any tricks, I'll make sure you die without a burial place!"

Led by the nine-headed lion demon, the group set off in a grand procession towards the avian race. After traveling for a long time, they finally saw a towering phoenix tree ahead, roughly estimated to be ten thousand meters tall, its canopy resembling a giant, open umbrella piercing the clouds. And among the dense branches and leaves, they could vaguely see many different kinds of demonic beasts resting and roosting.

Just then, a clear, melodious yet authoritative voice came from the clouds: "Who dares to trespass on my territory?"

Seeing the situation was dire, the nine-headed lion's expression changed drastically. It hurriedly retreated and shouted at the top of its lungs, "It's terrible! They want to kill the Phoenix Clan Chief and steal the invaluable Phoenix Flame!" Its shout was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire mountain forest.

Just then, a furious shout of "Bold!" rang out, and a gigantic, imposing Sky-Devouring Sparrow swooped down from the tall sycamore tree like an arrow released from a bow. Its sharp gaze, like lightning, locked onto the crowd below.

"Hehe, looks like I can finally have a taste of delicious braised lion's head meatballs today!" The Chaos Demon Lord's lips curled into a sly smile. He clenched his fists, emanating a powerful, chilling aura, and charged towards the nine-headed lion without hesitation. However, the cunning nine-headed lion was clearly prepared. With a flash, it transformed into a streak of light and vanished without a trace, causing the Chaos Demon Lord's attack to miss completely.

At the same time, various other birds of prey rushed in from all directions, their numbers blotting out the sky and completely surrounding Wu Feilong and the Chaos Demon Lord. The atmosphere instantly became extremely tense.

Faced with this situation, Wu Feilong remained fearless. He stepped forward and said loudly, "Phoenix Clan Chief, please calm your anger. I have come here not to offend you, but to sincerely request peace. The living environment for demon beasts is deteriorating, while your clan is completely different from other ferocious, human-eating demon beasts. Therefore, I wonder if you would be willing to lead your people to the Tianyuan Continent to coexist peacefully with our human race?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a clear, melodious cry rang out, followed by a magnificent, multicolored phoenix gracefully swooping down from the dense canopy of trees and landing lightly in front of Wu Feilong. This phoenix shone with dazzling light, like a blazing sun, so intense that one dared not look directly at it.

"Hmph, do you think a mere brat like you can make decisions about human affairs?" The Phoenix Clan Chief's beautiful and majestic eyes scrutinized Wu Feilong before him, filled with suspicion.

Wu Feilong smiled slightly and calmly took out a thick wooden branch from his robes. This branch appeared ordinary, but the moment it was taken out, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and an extremely powerful aura of the Emperor Realm emanated from it. It turned out that this was a gift from Emperor Mu Qing, possessing unparalleled power.

Holding a wooden branch, Wu Feilong said firmly, "Clan Chief, as long as you agree to coexist peacefully with the human race, I can absolutely make the decision on this matter!"

"Now that I have obtained Emperor Mu Qing's permission, I will grant your request. After arriving in Tianyuan Continent, I will absolutely not eat people again!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Feilong's face immediately showed gratitude, but then he looked troubled and said, "Senior, I have another matter that I need your help with. To be honest, the clone of the Slaughter Emperor is currently sealed inside my body, and I have tried everything but have been unable to completely remove it. Therefore, I humbly request that you lend me the power of the Phoenix Flame to help me refine this clone."

Phoenix nodded slightly in agreement: "No problem." With that, Wu Feilong waved his right hand, and an ancient and mysterious Taixu Cauldron instantly appeared before them. Then, he flashed and, like a ghost, flew and sat down inside the Taixu Cauldron.

Just then, the phoenix beside it opened its enormous beak, and a torrent of raging, world-destroying phoenix flame erupted forth, shooting straight into the Tai Xu Cauldron. In an instant, the entire space was engulfed in blazing flames, the intense heat seemingly capable of melting everything in its path.

Inside the Tai Xu Cauldron, Wu Feilong chanted incantations, and an obscure and difficult-to-understand incantation came from his mouth. As the incantation rang out, the previously calm phoenix flames suddenly became violent, like fire dragons surging wildly within the cauldron.

At the same time, wisps of Phoenix Origin Fire, hundreds of times more powerful than ordinary Phoenix Flame, slowly flowed into the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation beneath the Tai Xu Cauldron. The moment these flames touched the formation, they reacted violently, like sparks falling into an oil drum. The Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation shone brightly, its power increasing several times over.
