Upon hearing their emperor's command, the Elite Personal Guards sprang into action without hesitation.
Moving with deadly precision, they surged forward from all directions, their synchronized charge forming an inescapable net of destruction.
Flas roared to life, engulfing their entire bodies and weapons, making them appear as fiery phantoms of war.
The ground trembled beneath their feet as their blazing figures illuminated the entire arena.
Inches away, Feng Shen's crazed smile suddenly turned cold as ice.
Leaning closer, he whispered in a voice devoid of warmth, "It's ti to snuff out this little fla..." As the words left his lips, he struck with blinding speed.
Feng Shen's fist connected with the nearest guard's face, and the impact was catastrophic—obliterating the man's head in an instant.
Blood sprayed like a crimson mist as the lifeless, fiery body crumpled to the ground, the flas extinguished as though swallowed by an invisible void.
Without pause, Feng Shen pivoted, his fists a blur of devastating force as he targeted another guard.
The result was the sa—his blow obliterated the man's head in an instant, a fountain of blood spraying into the air.
Feng Shen moved with relentless precision, repeating the deadly act over and over, each strike faster than the eye could follow.
The carnage unfolded in an instant, a whirlwind of destruction so swift it seed almost surreal, leaving behind a crimson storm of chaos and lifeless, extinguished bodies.
Watching his Elite Personal Guards fall one by one with horrifying ease, the Phoenix Emperor stumbled backward, each step laden with disbelief.
His breaths grew heavy and uneven, panic flashing across his eyes.
The drops of their blood had splattered onto the Phoenix Emperor's luxurious red robe, staining it.
Glancing down at the crimson marks, his voice trembled as he muttered, "Impossible… This is impossible… You're in such a low realm! This—this is insane!"
Feng Shen raised his bloodied fist to his lips, licking it clean. His cold expression twisted into a sadistic grin as his gaze locked ahead.
He began moving forward. Each step forward was slow, filled with an overwhelming killing intent that poured from his body like an oppressive storm.
The air grew heavy, thick with dread, as though the weight of death itself hung over the entire arena.
A low, chilling laugh escaped Feng Shen's lips. "Ah~ I missed this feeling of death and destruction so much~… This is the perfect ti to give an offering to the Reincarnation Cycle!" He licked his lip.
Shaking his head in disbelief, the Phoenix Emperor stumbled, his foot catching on a broken piece of the platform.
He tumbled backward, landing heavily on his rear, his composure completely shattered.
The Phoenix Emperor's voice trembled as he stamred, "Yo—you're a demon… A demon… I can't allow you to live…"

His wide eyes reflected pure terror, as if he were staring directly into the abyss—into death itself, a figure devoid of any trace of life or rcy.
"You must die, no matter the cost!" the Phoenix Emperor roared, his voice trembling with desperation.
His hand shot beneath his beard, grasping a small pendant adorned with the symbol of a phoenix.
With a fierce grip, the Phoenix Emperor crushed it in his palm, the fragile object shattering instantly.
For a mont, there was only silence, but then, shimring red sparkles began to erge from the fragnts.
The glowing embers floated upward.
Feng Shen glanced upward, his golden eyes narrowing with curiosity as he observed the spectacle.
He relished the thrill of the unknown, the exhilaration coursing through him.
A smirk tugged at Feng Shen's lips as he noted the faint grin spreading across the emperor's face, the spark of confidence returning to his trembling foe.
'Good,' he thought. 'Let him believe he has a chance.'
Suddenly…
A deafening roar, primal and bird-like, thundered down from what seed to be the heavens themselves.
The sound reverberated through the air, shaking the entire area with its sheer intensity.
Winds howled wildly, whipping in every direction, while flas erupted into the sky, twisting and raging as if alive.
A massive earthquake began rippling through the land, threatening to tear everything apart.
"Ahahaha!" The Phoenix Emperor erupted into uncontrollable laughter.
Steadying himself with one hand, he pushed himself up to his feet, his movents filled with renewed vigor.
Throwing his arms wide, the Phoenix Emperor lifted his gaze to the fiery sky, a triumphant smile spreading across his face.
"The Phoenix has answered my call!" he declared, his voice brimming with fervor. "It has truly blessed my family and my empire! Now, it is ti for your ultimate demise!" He pointed at the demon.
"Oh~? I can't wait~!" Feng Shen murmured, a sly smile creeping across his face as he casually rubbed his chin.
He remained in a relaxed stance, his gaze never wavering from the sky.
Feng Shen's eyes locked onto the rip in the sky, watching as the very fabric of the sky seed to tear apart.
Slowly, a colossal phoenix, radiant in its fiery glory, began to erge from the rift.
Its massive form blotted out the sky, the sheer size of it awe-inspiring as it looked down upon the Upper Realm with an air of divine authority.
"Ah~ geez… Why must you take so long?" Feng Shen muttered in mock frustration, shaking his head with a smirk.
He tapped his foot impatiently, his amusent tinged with a touch of annoyance.
Feng Shen knew a divine being of such imnse size would move slowly, and the anticipation only fueled his desire to confront it directly.
"Well~ seeing as I'm not a patient man, let's speed this up!" With a smirk, he pushed off the ground, his body shooting into the air with blinding speed.
A mont later, Feng Shen summoned Surfcloud beneath him, riding the cloud as he ascended toward the giant phoenix, his eyes gleaming.
As he drew closer, he stretched his arm, preparing for his strike.
Then, with a swift motion, he pulled back his arm, gathering all his strength, and then shot upward from the cloud.
