Chapter 792 Interference

Bang!

The Heaven-Devouring Emperor watched the devastating power of her attack hit Huo Fenghuang. However, he soon frowned. He saw someone appear before her, so he focused on them.

He squinted at her with a look of bafflement; he could not fathom what had just happened; no, he refused to accept it.

The Heaven-Devouring Emperor took a moment to a.n.a.lyze this situation, using all his intelligence, wisdom, and experience. Then, great anger overcame him.

His aura leaked, twisting the surrounding s.p.a.ce. The Central Quadrant even turned red for a brief moment.

"d.a.m.n you," he roared, his voice echoing like a wrathful G.o.d about to walk on a path of carnage and destruction. Then, he attacked Huo Fenghuang with even more ferocity.

A few seconds prior:

Huo Fenghuang watched how her s.h.i.+eld cracked, and she watched how that terrifying sword rapidly approached her. She used her immense Willpower to remove the fear of death, trying to remain calm.

However, she knew death was coming, and there was nothing she could do to stop it. For a moment, memories of her life flashed in her mind; it started when she was three years old, learning about the glorious past of the Ancient Clan.

Their Huo Clan's ancestor was a brilliant maneven in the era when humans lived in ignorance. He invited fire and brought all humans out of the age of eating raw food. They could now be warm in the winter, thus saving millions of lives.

With this accomplishment, the latter received countless merits, pa.s.sed down through his descendants. Then, her ancestor took the name "Huo," which meant fire, as their surname.

And after the Heaven Opening Emperor opened the new age of Emperor, their Huo Clan took the opportunity to rise. They use the Phoenix Bloodline for their family since the Phoenix represents the pinnacle of the Flame Bloodline.

Huo Fenghuang saw many more memories. However, she quickly suppressed the processshe did not want to give up before the final moment.

She pushed her brain on overdrive, thinking of a solution that would allow her to survive this ordeal. And right when she was about to die, something suddenly popped into her mind: it was a brilliant technique, unlike anything she had thought of before.

Boom!

The attack reached, but Huo Fenghuang was perfectly intact. And that's because someone had appeared before. And that someone was another version of herself dressed in all white.

The white-dressed Huo Fenghuang released an aura on par with the Heaven-Devouring Emperor's Dao Artifact, and she might even be more powerful.

Huo Fenghuang looked at the person who protected her. At the last minute, she used a technique that combined Luck Dao and Yin-Yang Dao.

Her Luck Dao allowed her to control probability, and probability represents infinite possibility and an infinite future. Huo Fenghuang asked herself how she would make the probability of her blocking that attack a hundred percent while also having the power to kill the Heaven-Devouring Emperor.

The answer is to have Nine Extremity Foundation and a completed one with 5-Root.

Then, she used her Yin-Yang Dao to control Truth and False. She created a false version of herself with the Nine Extremity Foundation and combined it with her probability. Then, she reversed false into truth, materializing that false version of herself she had created.

And thus, white dressed Huo Fenghuang appeared.

Huo Fenghuang calmly watched the angered Mo Xingyun attack a second time. And as she expected, her other self calmly waved her hand to block that sword.

"Come out," yelled the Heaven-Devouring Emperor like a mad man, a mad woman?

Unfortunately, no one answered him. And Huo Fenghuang was puzzled, wondering whom he was talking to.

"w.a.n.g Wei, I know you're here, so come out."

Still no answer.

"Do you think I'm stupid?" he said to the void before sneering. "There is no way she could create such a technique without intense knowledge of the Nine Extremity Foundation.

"And even if she did, it would be virtually impossible to achieve 5-Root strength. Finally, I see the Karma Thread connecting the two of you. Do you think you can hide such a thing from me?"

"Yes," said a grand voice that echoed in the surrounding. "I should never underestimate someone who reached your height."

"So, you finally decided to show up and stop playing puppet master," said the Heaven-Devouring Emperor.

"Show up? You are still not worthy," said the majestic voice. Then, a woman dressed in all black appeared before Mo Xingyun.

"w.a.n.g Ju?" asked the Heaven-Devouring Emperor, feeling humiliated as his pride was hurt.

"You think she is enough to deal with me?" he asked with gritted teeth.

"In this battle, I have only one true compet.i.tor and one wild variable, but you're neither," replied Mo Xingyun. "At best, you are a mild convenience."

"Hehehe," The Heaven-Devouring Emperor laughed, but his voice was calm yet maniacal. Anyone with a discerning eye could detect the fury he was trying to suppress.

"I can't believe I was looked down upon by a snot-nosed brat who would die in a few million years."

He restrained his aura, looking deeply at w.a.n.g Ju. The killing intent in his eyes was substantial, affecting the surrounding billion light years. Without hesitation, he mobilized his sword to the extreme.

However, w.a.n.g Ju remained calm, preparing to engage in battle and annihilate her opponent as she was ordered.

Meanwhile, Huo Fenghuang's thoughts were in utter chaos, not even notice the white-dressed version of herself disappearing. She did not expect to be used as a p.a.w.n to test the Heaven-Devouring Emperor.

She was furious by this fact while also happy she could survive this endeavor. Her mood changed from these two extremes until turning into utter frustration.

'In the end, this result is my lack of strength and strategic vision,' she summarized. She did not blame w.a.n.g Wei or anyone else. Instead, she decided to take this moment as a learning opportunity to learn and grow,

Finally, Huo Fenghuang looked at the handsome red-haired man who appeared next to him.

"What do you want?"

"I need to talk to you, and my brother also wants to see you," replied Li Jun.

Huo Fenghuang frowned before nodding.

"If you don't mind, I can help you remove the Duyi Realm power inside your body," he continued.

"No need," replied Huo Fenghuang as white flames enveloped her, burning everything in the process. She achieved another nirvana, thus regenerating her missing lower limbs.

However, her expression was pale, indicating the process was not as smooth as it appeared.

"What do you want to talk about?" she asked.

"I want to exchange Slaughter Dao's understanding," said Li Jun. With w.a.n.g Wei's help, he saw most of the battle, which allowed him to see the difference in their Dao.

His Slaughter Dao focused more on all types of ways to kill a large number of people. So he can control things like diseases, poison, and even mental illness.

Meanwhile, Huo Fenghuang's Slaughter Dao focuses more on the best way to kill an individual. So, although she does not have all his killing means or is weak when it comes to large-scale destruction, he paled in comparison to her ability to kill in a one-to-one battle.

The core difference in their Slaughter Dao can be explained as Li Jun focused more on the War Aspect of this Dao, while Huo Fenghuang focused more on the Killing Aspect.

She thought for a moment before agreeing. Huo Fenghuang realized this was another opportunity. Anyway, she was now a defeated King, and her Emperor Path had ended.

So, it was wise to make the best of the situation and get more benefits.

Li Jun led her back to the Eastern Continent while exchanging Dao Comprehension with her. He did not immediately teleport or fly at extreme speed; he took the long way so they could have time for their exchange.

The Heaven-Devouring Emperor looked at w.a.n.g Ju, releasing her aura. He felt he was strangely familiar. Then, he squinted his eyes as he remembered something.

One of the people who partic.i.p.ated in his exile into the upper dimension was an odd individual from the Dao Opening Sect who also dressed in all black and did not reveal their face.

He remembered that person was called Shadow One.

The Heaven-Devouring Emperor remembered that Insurgent because he was tricky and stabbed him a dozen times. And every time he tried to kill the latter, he would get away, or another Insurgent with a strange turtle sh.e.l.l would protect him.

'Her aura is the same as that person,' a.n.a.lyzed the Heaven-Devouring Emperor. His mind worked faster than usual as he put many pieces of the puzzle together.

'An Insurgent technique that allowed an Emperor to bless their strength to an individual. This technique is probably of Shadow Nature and the work of the Shadow Ruler.'

He understood why she was so powerful; w.a.n.g Wei must have used this technique to empower her, granting her strength on par with 5-Root Dao Ancestor.

'He most likely sent her to humiliate me and affect my state of mind during the battle. I won't fall for such an obvious trick.'
