My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 1225 - The Second Avatar

Chapter 1225: The Second Avatar

The Fire Phoenix seemed to have gone berserk. It would soar to the sky and then, it would swoop down repeatedly. It would circle the air as it spewed flames from its mouth as well.

Under the protection of the five Golden Buddhas’ Bodies, Lu Zhou was completely unharmed. However, he was still slightly surprised by the Fire Phoenix’s terrifying combat strength.

In just a blink of an eye, Lu Zhou and the Fire Phoenix’s battle had moved about 100 kilometers away.

Swoosh!

After a while, the Fire Phoenix flapped its wings again. It erupted with even more powerful flames that shot in all directions.

…

From a distance, everything looked like they had been drowned in flames.

The Fire Phoenix’s attacks destroyed heaven and earth. All living things that were affected were instantly killed. Even the flying beasts that flew in the sky were killed without exception, dropping from the sky one after another. The smell of burning permeated the Unknown Land.

At this time, the dark Unknown Land was incomparably bright. The area within a radius of 50 kilometers was brightly lit.

The cultivators who had retreated from the affected area felt their hearts surged with emotions as they hovered in the air and watched this scene that they would likely not be able to see again in their lives. It was truly an unforgettable sight. They were so stunned as they watched that it seemed as though they had forgotten they were still in the incredibly dangerous Unknown Land.

Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, and the others who had also left the affected area were also watching in disbelief.

At this time, Little Yuan’er pointed at the sea of fire and said worriedly, “That’s master’s Golden Buddha’s Body!”

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong remained silent.

The Fire Phoenix that was reborn was now a divine beast. If they said they were not worried at all, they would be lying.

Their master’s cultivation base had always been a mystery to them. They could make guesses among themselves and would be proven wrong every single time.

Lu Li said with a reassuring smile, “Don’t worry. The Pavilion Master’s cultivation base isn’t any weaker than the two Venerable Masters. Even if he can’t defeat the Fire Phoenix, it won’t be a problem for him to escape.”

Yan Zhenluo said, “Hey, do you really still think the Pavilion Master is your ancestor?”

“Facts speak louder than words…”

“Hey, how can you call lying through your teeth facts?” Yan Zhenluo retorted.

Lu Li said, “I’m too lazy to argue with you…”

Little Yuan’er looked at the sea of flames intently as she asked, “Senior brothers, do you think you can catch and tame this bird?”

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong. “…”

How should they answer this question? The Fire Phoenix was a divine beast; how could they subdue and tame it? Even Venerable Masters were no match for it, let alone them.

“Of course, that’s possible,” Kong Wen chimed in at this moment.

“…”

Everyone looked at Kong Wen.

Kong Wen said solemnly, “Divine beasts are honorable. Indeed, it’s very difficult to subdue them. Moreover, the fact that they live in the heart of the Unknown Land makes it even more difficult to find them and subdue them. However, it’s very difficult but it’s not impossible. The Fire Phoenix is most vulnerable when it’s about to be reborn. If it’s defeated at this time, its strength would weaken. It’s known as the Immortal Bird because it can rise from the ashes. However, its rebirth ability isn’t without limitations…”

“What limitations?”

Kong Wen shook his head and said, “Even the two Venerable Masters don’t know, let alone someone like me. Otherwise, how could it successfully be reborn into a divine beast today?”

“In the end, there’s still no way to subdue it,” Little Yuan’er said.

Kong Wen smiled and said, “In fact, fierce beasts are similar to humans. They also revere the strong. One can subdue it with absolute strength or wait for when it’s weak to subdue it. Needless to say, the first method is the way of the king, but the second method would not garner its loyalty even after it’s subdued. Hence, it’s best to subdue it with absolute strength. Alas, the Venerable Masters aren’t strong enough to do so…”

Everyone sighed upon hearing these words.

…

The Golden Buddhas’ Bodies that looked 1,000 feet tall collectively charged out.

After unleashing its heaven-defying attack, it stayed still in the air again as it spread its wings. It looked majestic, beautiful, and soul-stirring despite its destructive strength. At this time, its flames seemed to dim slightly.

Lu Zhou studied the Fire Phoenix at a close distance. Flames shrouded it; every feather looked as though it was made from flames.

“Expansive Heavenly Energy palm seal…” Lu Zhou flew high up before he launched dozens of palm strikes.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

All the palm seals landed on the Fire Phoenix’s body, causing flames to fly out in all directions.

Alas, no matter how many times Lu Zhou attacked, it was futile. Even a Venerable Master could not harm it, let alone Lu Zhou who only had nine Birth Charts. At this time, he only had very little divine power left, and Whitzard was not around.

‘Should I use another Deadly Strike Card? However, it’ll be reborn again…’

At this time, the Fire Phoenix flapped its wings again and soared into the sky. It circled back and attacked in an even more frenzied state. It struck at Lu Zhou recklessly.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sky was completely occupied by Lu Zhou’s five-layer Golden Buddha’s Body and the Fire Phoenix.

The mountains and forests were drowned by the flames. They were burned down, turning the ground flat. Countless lives were lost or in dire straits.

Qin Renyue hovered in the air as he protected the 49 Swordsmen with great difficulty. All of them watched the battle in the distance wordlessly.

On the other hand, Ye Zheng, who was in a terrible state, wore an unsightly expression on his face. Although Venerable Masters were powerful, they were far from being able to contend with a divine beast like the Fire Phoenix.

“The Fire Phoenix has just been reborn into a divine beast so it’s unable to breach the Golden Buddha’s Body’s defenses. However, the old gentleman seems unable to harm the Fire Phoenix as well…” Yuan Lang said at this moment, “He must specialize in defense. His seems to be stronger than a Venerable Master but weaker than a Saint…”

…

The Fire Phoenix did not hold back and attacked Lu Zhou’s five-layer Golden Buddha’s Body with all its might.

After five to six minutes, the trees, mountains, and beasts in the vicinity had been burned down.

After the Fire Phoenix attacked with all its might, even if it was an Immortal Bird, it seemed a little helpless and exhausted.

At this time, Lu Zhou knew time was running out. He would not be able to contend with the Fire Phoenix anymore once the five-layer Golden Buddha’s Body vanished. He could still buy a Deadly Strike Card, but it would be a waste.

“Bast*rd, do you really think I can’t do anything to you?”

The Fire Phoenix raised its head and let out a long screech that shook the earth. It stared at Lu Zhou and made strange noises as though it was trying to communicate with Lu Zhou. Then, it flapped its wings and flew away.

Just when Lu Zhou turned to fly away, the Fire Phoenix suddenly screeched and made a sharp turn back to Lu Zhou and spat flames out.

Lu Zhou reacted quickly and used all the remaining divine power to counter the attack and manifested his blue avatar.

The palm seal imbued with Lu Zhou’s divine power was like a mountain as it shot past the Fire Phoenix’s flames and landed on its chest.

Boom!

The Fire Phoenix was sent flying back.

Similarly, Lu Zhou, with his five Golden Buddhas’ Bodies, was pushed back 100 meters.

Then, two opponents faced each other from afar.

At this time, the cultivators in the distance could not see much; all they saw was the golden light and the sea of flames. Since Lu Zhou’s second avatar was too small, they could not see it at all.

Meanwhile, when the Fire Phoenix saw Lu Zhou’s blue avatar, its wings seemed to stiffen slightly before the fire in its eyes dimmed. Then, it made gurgling noises that somewhat sounded like that of a turkey or a pigeon.

“Hmm?” Lu Zhou was baffled.

At this time, the Fire Phoenix folded its wings, and the flames on its body died down.

The world darkened and fell silent again.

In the sky, the black fog surged violently as though something was disturbing it.

Lu Zhou frowned when he sensed the strange energy in the fog. “An even stronger fierce beast?”
