Chapter 1067: The Dragons and the Phoenixes Fight at Close Quarters

The ripples around Ou Yangming gradually calmed down. He finally left the extremely dangerous broken space and came to an unknown place.

This place was a dead land with strong winds whistling, and the air was extremely thin. Amidst the endless strong winds, there were many big or small rocks mixed together. These rocks danced in the air and carried a huge force as if they could crush everything.

“Woosh…”

A rock landed beside Ou Yangming, and a flash of light immediately appeared. A surging force burst out from the Ancient Dragon Shield and fiercely collided with the rocks.

Consequently, this rock that was whistling in the wind and rampaging around turned into fine powder in the air, dissipating along with the winds.

Ou Yangming watched coldly from the side. Although the strength contained within the rock was great, it was no longer of any importance to him. Even if he did not deliberately deal with it, he could easily destroy it with just the strength of the Ancient Dragon Shield.

He looked around and no longer cared about the harsh environment in this place. Instead, he was a little worried. ‘Just where have I ended up at?’

The strange change that happened during the teleportation made him sufficiently vigilant. He did not know the reason, but he knew that it could not be an accident. Some beings from the Phoenixes were eager to kill him, after all.

Ou Yangming released his mind and continued to explore, wanting to find something useful in the boundless void.

Now, he knew there were countless celestial bodies in the Great Wide World. Once he lost his way, it would not be easy to find his way back.

Nonetheless, since he had an accident during the teleportation, Feng Xiang, Lil’ Red, and the others would definitely not stand idly by. With the secret techniques of the Phoenixes, if they were determined to find him, there would surely be a clue.

Eventually, when Ou Yangming’s mental conception was spread out to a certain extent, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

His mental power was great, but it was still insignificant in the entire Great Wide World. At this moment, he released his power to explore and was only trying to find something that would interest him.

Therefore, he discovered that the place he had entered was filled with a strange and powerful power.

The power was not unfamiliar to him because it was the Dragons’ aura.

Even though the aura was very secretive, he could identify the ball that had suddenly appeared in his spiritual world.

Ou Yangming’s heart was filled with endless questions. He had used the Phoenixes’ Teleportation Formation, so how could there be the Dragons’ aura? Feng Xiang and the others were from the Peacemaking Sect, but they would never ignore the existence of the Dragons before the 2 races had truly given up on war.

For a moment, many thoughts flashed in Ou Yangming’s mind, causing his expression to change unpredictably. He faintly felt that he was in big trouble.

All of a sudden, Ou Yangming sensed something. He turned his head and looked into the distance.

At the end of his vision, a huge ball of light suddenly lit up. The light was as dazzling as the sun as if it could blind everyone who looked directly at it.

Ou Yangming slightly narrowed his eyes. The distance was far, but he could still sense 2 terrifying auras.

Phoenixes—they were certainly the auras of phoenix powerhouses. Given the fearsome and scorching pressure from them, he could not have been mistaken.

If the 2 auras had appeared a little earlier, Ou Yangming might have taken the initiative to welcome them. However, he was somewhat hesitant at this moment. This was because within the Teleportation Formation, a hint of concealed auras from the Dragons could also be sensed. As long as one was not a complete idiot, they would be able to sense that something was wrong.

Ou Yangming pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision. He took a deep breath, and his body immediately descended.

When he landed, he shook his wrist and pulled out a rattan. The item was extraordinary. It was the Wutong Tree’s rattan. Moreover, it had been refined by him into a piece of equipment that could stand in for him.

Ou Yangming slightly brushed with his finger and squeezed out a drop of blood from the gap between his fingers. It dripped onto the rattan. Following that, he made a few strokes with his finger. The rattan trembled transformed into a person that looked exactly like him.

The young fellow placed the person that the rattan had transformed into on the ground and set up a layer of protection above it.

If one looked down from the sky, one would find a person who had fainted. While the person’s aura was still there and had a mysterious power protecting him, who knew how long he could last in this harsh environment?

After doing all of this, Ou Yangming flashed and stealthily hid himself 333 meters away.

Just as he had just finished setting up all of this, the auras from the distance arrived at lightning speed.

Ou Yangming, who was hiding in the dark, had a ghastly look on his face when he sensed the frightening auras. Given that the powerhouses could lock onto his position so easily, they must have used a special method. Without a doubt, it was one of the Phoenixes’ secret techniques.

Nevertheless, when the horrifying aura gradually approached, a look of surprise flashed in Ou Yangming’s eyes.

He originally thought that the aura belonged to only one person, so he did not expect 2 powerhouses to come. Even so, the auras from the powerhouses were the same, making it impossible for anyone to distinguish them.

Ou Yangming narrowed his eyes and restrained his aura as he looked at them.

When he focused on doing this, even the phoenix Rulers did not notice him.

“Hmph, he really escaped from the shattered space.” In the void, Feng Yi looked at Ou Yangming, who was lying undercover, and sneered. “The Dragons are indeed the most useless race. They couldn’t even kill such a thrash.”

The corner of Feng Ai’s mouth curled up into a strange arc as he said, “They’re still somewhat useful. At the very least, they severely injured this fella and saved us some trouble.” He raised his hand, and a ball of fiery light condensed on his palm.

Just as he was about to release the fearsome power that represented destruction, Feng Yi stretched out her hand and uttered, “Hold on.”

“Why?” Feng Ai was slightly startled as he asked in surprise.

Feng Yi’s eyes were bright as he asked, “Have you forgotten what happened during the bloodline test?”

The 2 of them did not participate in the grand meet, but everyone in the Phoenixes knew about this matter.

Feng At’s expression changed slightly as he said in a deep voice, “The Imperial Bloodline.”

“Yes. This human has the bloodline of our ancestor.” Feng Yi’s eyes flashed with greed, “I don’t know what despicable method he used to obtain it, but the bloodline can’t be cut off just like that.”

Feng Ai nodded heavily and said, “That’s right.”

The human had to die but before that, the bloodline in his body could not be wasted.

Ou Yangming clenched his fists in the dark. ‘The Phoenixes—it was indeed the Phoenixes’ doing.’ He believed that Feng Xiang and Lil’ Red would not harm him for sure, but the other phoenix powerhouses were different. Especially his relationship with the Main Combat, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were like fire and water.

Despite that, after sensing the auras of the 2 phoenix Rulers, Ou Yangming was not confident that he could win in a fight against them, so he continued to hide quietly.

“Oh, the Phoenixes’ Imperial Bloodline?”

At the spur of the moment, an arrogant voice sounded from the other side. 2 auras that were no less inferior to that of the phoenix Rulers appeared.

Long Xiao and Long Ting showed up, and they could not hide the joy on their faces. They did not expect that their persistent pursuit of Ou Yangming would allow them to obtain such precious information.

The Phoenixes’ Imperial Bloodline was a distant legend. The Dragons and the Phoenixes were at loggerheads, but the bloodline had an unparalleled magical effect such that it would be valuable to any party that acquired it.

“Oh no.” Feng Yi’s expression changed slightly as he said, “Catch him!”

Before his voice was gone, he had swiftly gone down. With a shake of his wrist, his hand transformed into huge claws that grabbed toward Ou Yangming, who was on the ground.

Just as he made his move, Long Xiao followed suit. The dragon powerhouse let out an explosive roar as his body trembled slightly. A black mountain-like wall appeared in the air and forcefully blocked Feng Yi’s claws.

Having said that, Feng Yi was not well-known among the 2 races for no reason.

He snorted coldly, then a dazzling light was released from his illusory hand. It pressed down on the black wall ruthlessly.

At this time, neither Feng Yi nor Long Xiao moved. They were in a stalemate just like that.

Afterward, Feng Yi’s body swayed. He quickly disappeared from where he was and pounced downward.

That said, Long Ting was prepared and also pounced in the same direction.

Their strengths were similar, by which they were all Rulers, and their respective races also had their strengths. Once they attacked, it would naturally be earth-shattering. Nonetheless, the 4 Rulers appeared to be very cautious when they fought. They attacked each other repeatedly, but their powers would usually disappear when they came close to Ou Yangming on the ground.

Not only the phoenix powerhouses, but even the dragon powerhouses were also being careful.

They came here for one reason, and that was to kill Ou Yangming, who was a human.

However, when the powerhouses found out that Ou Yangming had lost the ability to fight back and possessed the coveted Imperial Bloodline, their thoughts changed drastically.

As long as they could capture Ou Yangming, the precious bloodline would be within their grasp. No one could resist such a temptation. With that, the 4 Rulers controlled their powers perfectly here as they all wanted to capture the young fellow first. They knew that the first one among them to succeed would have a huge advantage.. Even if they could not take Ou Yangming away, they would not leave him to others.
