Chapter 1756: Three Treasures

“Ancestor Cornelia hasn’t ascended yet? Then…”

The Blood World Emperor’s expression changed before the Infernal Lightning Emperor’s voice echoed out with an equal amount of confusion.

“Was this a ruse to drag us out?”

“Probably not considering the mess they are.” The Deprived Soulstir Emperor shook his head, “On the other hand, Sect Master Lea Weiss seems to be missing. Last time, she too didn’t show up to defend against our subordinates but had her Ancestors deal with us. This is quite worthy of suspicion, if I must say…”

“What? Why!?” The Blood World Emperor looked paler than he could be, “Could it be that she was the person who ascended? After offending the Starnova Emperor, was she scared enough to ascend quickly without even bothering to stabilize her foundation? She didn’t even consider coming under my protection? No! I must quickly ascend and conquer her before someone else does!”

“Blood World Emperor, stop your ramblings. Such a prideful righteous path woman is not going to love you with all her heart anyway.”

The Infernal Lightning Emperor sneered before the Blood World Emperor turned to look at him with aggression.

“Hmph! That’s only until I break her will… I’ve seen prideful women in the wicked path than her, but aren’t they all willing to love me?”

“Impudent!”

An angered voice echoed as everyone’s heads swiveled, turning to look at the Burning Phoenix return with its talons in the midst of healing. The inner talon and middle talon already grew halfway and were going to be completely healed within minutes despite their overbearing prowess that should’ve suppressed her regeneration prowess.

‘As expected of an Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast, and as she’s a phoenix, her regenerative ability is off the charts like a dragon’s…’

The four of them thought at the same time, but they still possessed confident expressions on their faces.

“Sect Master Lea Weiss isn’t someone you could break, let alone defeat.”

Ancestor Cornelia’s voice echoed with calm, although it could be discerned that her melodious voice was seething with rage as her pupils gazed around, looking at the destruction inflicted on her sect.

“Old bird, you better watch your mouth, lest you succumb to my hot, youthful blood.” The Blood World Emperor sneered, “Now that every peak powerhouse of your Burning Phoenix Ridge has either ascended or ended up dead, you alone aren’t a match for us.”

“You wicked path powerhouses are truly hateful to talk to.”

Despite what she said, Ancestor Cornelia shone with radiant crimson light as she suddenly turned into a crimson-robed old lady, taking on her human form as if she was willing to have a talk, perhaps even surrender.

Looking at this scene, the disciples and elders who stopped fighting looked at their ancestors with aghast, imagining that it could be over for them until they heard her next words.

“However, did you four wicked path hegemons forget that my Burning Phoenix Ridge is in alliance with the Alstreim Family that belongs to the Emperor of Death?”

Ancestor Cornelia waved her hand as a fiery crown laden with burning phoenix patterns appeared on her head, making her appear majestic as she bellowed.

“You’re courting death!”

“The Grand Burning Phoenix Crown, a Legacy Artifact, huh… Hehe…”

The Deprived Soulstir Emperor mockingly chuckled as he shook his head.

“I don’t think the Emperor of Death will dare to attack the four of us unless he wants to offend the entire wicked path. Besides, I think we have already done enough favors for him to remain silent to our actions even if you have an alliance.”

He then spread his hands, appearing smug.

“As a matter of fact, we won’t go overboard and destroy your Burning Phoenix Ridge, that is, as long as you hand over seventy percent of what you have in your treasury, including the most precious protected ones. Quick, time is of the essence as those righteous path bastards might appear at any moment. I’ll give you three seconds to decide.”

Ancestor Cornelia looked at them with a cold expression on her face. With her eyes appearing to be wide-eyed with rage, it was cold as a frozen lake, although searing crimson flames began to encase the surrounding kilometers, its momentum causing numerous wicked path experts and powerhouses to scram towards their four powerhouses.

Her prowess just kept on increasing as a crimson wooden sword with a bone hilt appeared in her right hand while a half a meter radius crystal shield appeared in her left hand, abruptly increasing the might of her prowess to a tremendous degree.

Terrifying undulations spread, causing the Spatial Blight Emperor, Deprived Soulstir Emperor, Infernal Lightning Emperor, and Blood World Emperor to narrow their eyes as they recognized the undulations of Ancestor Cornelia had reached far above their prowess.

She was able to cross a level to fight, perhaps even more!

“Grand Burning Phoenix Crown, Burning Phoenix Bonewood Sword, and the Burning Phoenix Bonewing Crystal Shield. One for support, one for offense, and another one for defense, and all three of them are Legacy Artifacts…”

Deprived Soulstir Emperor’s expression became solemn.

“Are you aware of the consequen-“

“I’ll show you the might of the Burning Phoenix, you vile characters. Die!”

Ancestor Cornelia swung the meter-long crimson bonewood sword at them.

*Shhh!~*

A terrifying slash swept through the air as crimson flames sizzled, leaving a trail of scorched air and cracking space, teeming with crimson fractures that appeared to come from the depths of hell.

“Stinky old bird! I see you want to die!”

The Blood World Emperor angrily bellowed as he took a step forward and spread both of his hands. Three energies simultaneously began to churn out, making his cultivation base apparent to all present at the moment.

They sensed his essence energy boil to Peak-Level Law Rune Stage, its prowess reaching a level higher. Combined with Peak-Level Martial Overlord Stage martial energy and Mid-Level Emperor Soul Stage soul force, the bloody pole-ax he created in front of him appeared to break the void as it appeared.

He clasped both his hands towards the skies before he slammed down his crimson pole-ax superimposed with his blood pole-ax, striking the incoming blazing slash of Ancestor Cornelia.

*Boom!!!~~~*

A deafening sound resounded out that drowned all the sounds and gasping voices from the crowd. Space shattered at the location where the two attacks clashed and formed a spherical curvature of blood and flames that revolved kilometers around, making it appear as though it was a blood-drenched atmosphere. However, everyone could see that the Blood World Emperor was sent flying from the clash as he spurted a mouthful of blood as he regained balance.

The other three wicked path hegemons’ eyes were wide with shock before they calmed and looked at the approaching Blood World Emperor who still had his pole-ax.

“We don’t have time to waste. Let’s kill her in an instant!”

He declared without being ashamed the same time other three wicked path hegemons nodded their heads, their blood, formless, infernal lightning and poisonous energies bursting with intensity as oppressive undulations began to spread.

Ancestor Cornelia’s eyes narrowed as she looked at their cultivation bases.

While the Blood World Emperor already possessed the cultivation base to fight a level above, the Deprived Soulstir Emperor and Infernal Lightning Emperor also possessed the power to fight a level above. Only the Spatial Blight Emperor was the weakest amongst them as he couldn’t cross a level like them, but his sneaky yet vicious methods left her feeling threatened the same.

“Hmph!”

Controlling the three Legacy Artifacts, Ancestor Cornelia harrumphed in contempt and hatred as a thousand-meter wide wingspan of a Burning Phoenix suddenly appeared and encased the thousands of disciples and elders in its protective nature.

At the same time, a thick bolt of crackling red lightning abruptly struck the burning phoenix wing. However, it did not manage to penetrate through the fiery wings but instead vanished amidst trying to pierce it, running out of energy.

The next second, the sound of ominous music began to eerily play. Its resonance played out everywhere, covering thousands of kilometers in an instant before the range was narrowed down to a few kilometers, turning into a formless dark might that struck the burning phoenix wings in succession but similar to the infernal lightning; it was unable to put a dent.

Bluish-green poison and a blood-ax superimposed with seething blood similarly struck at the same spot, but other than forming a crack on the beautiful burning phoenix wings, it did not manage to penetrate and ended up disappearing like the last two attacks.

“Die!”

As soon as the four attacks all fell on Ancestor Cornelia’s indestructible burning phoenix wings that she conjured, she waved her sword again, sending multiple strikes at them.

The four wicked path hegemons did not stop their attacks but reciprocated with more intensity, throwing out innumerable attacks that clashed with Burning Phoenix Flames. Space inevitably cracked multiple times, creating a huge fissure that elongated with time as more attacks exploded and harmed the atmosphere.

Ancestor Cornelia used the ability of the Burning Phoenix Bonewing Crystal Shield, defending all the members of the Burning Phoenix Ridge and even herself in a cylindrical formation while she struck out with the overbearing Burning Phoenix Bonewood Sword, giving the wicked path hegemons a headache as they were showered with tens of slashes in a single second.

Even though they dodged her attacks and kept flying around on all sides, the wicked path hegemons were not able to do anything against the offense and defensive prowess of Ancestor Cornelia, especially when the majestic Grand Burning Phoenix Crown boosted the other two Legacy Artifacts. Moreover, with her vast energy reserves as a Peak-Level Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beast, Ancestor Cornelia could keep them at bay for some more time.

“Damn it!”

The Infernal Lightning Emperor couldn’t help but feel extremely annoyed.

“Spatial Blight Emperor! Did you not plunder Reinhardt Weiss’s spatial ring!? Look at the mess her Burning Phoenix Bonewing Crystal Shield is creating…!”
