CHAPTER 918: CHAPTER 731-732: SUBDUING THE FIRE PHOENIX! RARE TITLE, CONQUERING SWORD CASTING CITY!

"Scree!!"

The Fake Phoenix, with its spirit communication abilities, despite not understanding human speech, could sense Jiang Dali’s hostility just from his stance. Its eyes, like burning rubies, flashed with shock and anger, and without any warning, it transformed into a ball of fire and charged out.

Woosh!!

Instantly, the air inside the stone cave seemed to be ignited by a blazing flame, and before Jiang Dali’s eyes, all he saw was a fiery red, reflecting the rapidly expanding vibrant ball of feathers.

"You beast, you’re asking for trouble!"

Jiang Dali snorted coldly, planted his feet firmly, and a golden Qi Force suddenly spiraled up from his whole body like a whirlwind. On his strong arms, the patterns of the Qilin Bloodline became visible, shielding him from the scorching flames.

With a swing of the Demon Sword in his hand, crimson sword aura burst forth, rushing towards the Fake Phoenix like roaring scarlet lightning.

The Fake Phoenix flapped its Double Wings, scattering a fiery rain as if parting dazzling clouds, and the fiery Qi Force poured onto the sword aura.

Whoosh—

The sword aura, unstoppable, directly pierced through the flames, tearing apart the surging fire and the hard Fire Feathers on the Fake Phoenix, leaving a foot-long wound.

Immediately, a gush of blood like magma spilled onto the ground, scorching it black.

"Scree!!"

The Fake Phoenix let out a shrill scream, a long segment of its blood bar instantly diminished, and both claws turned into fierce, blazing shadows, tearing towards Jiang Dali.

Jiang Dali was also surprised by the sharpness of the Demon Sword, realizing he didn’t need much force to injure the Fake Phoenix, and he quickly withdrew the sword.

With a sudden grip of his large hand, the Powerful Dragon Claw Hand directly seized the burning, hot like a heated steel rod, sharp claw of the Fake Phoenix.

His arm suddenly put forth strength.

The Fake Phoenix’s eyes flashed with shock and rage.

This man dared to challenge it, several times larger than him in size, and it fiercely exerted its strength almost simultaneously.

The next moment!

A sensation of powerlessness, as if riding on clouds and mist, suddenly came over it; the Fake Phoenix let out a panicked whimper, feeling as if it was being pulled and flown by a mountain. Its giant wings triggered flames and wild winds but couldn’t form an effective struggle.

"You beast, get down here for me!!"

Jiang Dali let out a loud shout, his arm muscles bulging like the muscles of a Vajra, with veins popping out like chains.

Boom!!

The Fake Phoenix howled miserably and was slammed forcefully to the ground under the wide-eyed, slack-jawed stares of Liao Rushen, Wang Yuyan, and others.

The hard stone ground exploded with a bang, leaving its surface charred black.

The Fake Phoenix was dizzy, feeling like its entire body was falling apart, whimpering and struggling to flap its wings.

A powerful flame energy erupted from within, forming radiant golden lines, like sunlight piercing through cloud masses, crisscrossing towards Jiang Dali.

"Still trying to defy me?! How dare you not put me in your eyes!"

Jiang Dali sneered, tossed aside the Demon Sword, and bent his single arm.

With a sound of "clong" resonating like a bell toll, the Golden Bell Qi Shield spun out, easily blocking the crisscrossing golden lines, followed by a fierce whip kick aimed at the Fake Phoenix’s wing.

Bam!!!

A violent collision.

Flames exploded in the air with a boom.

The colossal body of the Fake Phoenix, comparable to the Demon Hawk, couldn’t withstand this massive force. It got kicked, scattering Fire Feathers in all directions, and tumbled backward, its sharp claws desperately clawing at the ground, leaving deep grooves behind.

Jiang Dali, however, strode like a dragon and a tiger, charging again as if a horse leaping across a stream.

Demonic Qi surged around him, and his huge palm radiated fierce Evil Qi, squeezing and distorting the air, creating explosive sonic booms, crashing heavily onto the Fake Phoenix like a heavy cannon.

Bang!!

The Fake Phoenix let out a miserable cry, spewing blood, its massive body crashing into the stone wall as if hit by a cannon, sparking a fiery shockwave. Much of the flames on its body extinguished, and the long blood bar above it nearly halved.

"Whether it has three heads or two, the bird I ride is certain to be ridden!"

Jiang Dali laughed loudly, his eyes gleaming, as the Golden Bell Qi Shield surged around him, and he raised his hands fiercely towards the Fake Phoenix.

Whoosh!!

His two iron-like hands, impervious to water and fire, seized the head of the Fake Phoenix with a forceful press.

Disregarding whether the Fake Phoenix agreed, Jiang Dali split his legs.

In the shocked and bewildered gaze of Liao Rushen, he aggressively mounted the Fake Phoenix, which was ablaze with flames, his clothes instantly catching fire.

"Foster Father!!"

Liao Rushen exclaimed, his eyes wide, staring at Jiang Dali, who was bathing in flames and forcibly riding on the struggling Fake Phoenix’s head, inexplicably feeling his skin tighten, breaking out in a sweat.

This... doesn’t this burn down there?

Just as the shock set in, the Fake Phoenix let out a wail, struggling fiercely as it flapped its wings and flew up, crashing violently towards the stone cave.

With a boom!

The stone cave shook violently, dust and fiery rain falling down.

However, Jiang Dali, being in the Golden Bell Invincible State, remained entirely unscathed, while the Fake Phoenix itself churned with tumultuous Qi-Blood, crying out again and flapping its wings towards the cave entrance.

The blistering temperature brushed past.

Liao Rushen was just about to stop.

"Step aside! I’m letting this beast cool off outside!"

Within the flames, Jiang Dali shouted with a resounding voice.

"Village Chief!"

Wang Yuyan and Murong Qingqing both exclaimed in surprise, unable to step forward, but all stepped aside, watching as Jiang Dali rode the Fake Phoenix out of the stone cave, flying into the sky.

"Chirp!!—"

In mid-air, the circling Demon Hawk screeched, its eagle eyes shocked, staring at Jiang Dali riding the Fake Phoenix as he shot out of the stone cave, anxious to get close, yet fearful of the surging flames on the Fake Phoenix, not daring to approach too closely.

The Fake Phoenix frantically dashed across the sky, sometimes diving at high speeds, sometimes suddenly soaring upward in an inverted spiral ascent, and at other times plummeting headfirst like free-fall, trying to fling Jiang Dali off to his death.
