Chapter 257: The Battle at the Peak
Yet, it was the Peacock Great Demon King who initiated the attack.
With a flap of his wings, from the circular patterns at the tips of his peacock feathers, beams of silver light shot out, merging into the air and turning into silver brilliance, causing space itself to split into countless black lines slicing forward. Wherever it passed, the sparkling sky was littered with cracks.
The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor snorted coldly, and golden light shot out from his eyes. Beams of crystalline light burning like a sudden meteor shower met the dark spatial cracks head-on.
When the crystalline light touched the cracks, it was like mending the heavens, filling in the gaps. The crystalline brilliance grew stronger as the cracks disappeared, continuously sealing the space and pressing toward the Peacock Great Demon King.
This was the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor sealing all space with his formidable power. The bloodline talent of the Peacock Demon clan lay in spatial control, and when all space was sealed and confined, their power would undoubtedly decline to its lowest point.
Above the head of the Peacock Great Demon King, a golden crown quietly lit up, shedding a pale golden glow that instantly boosted his aura. The peacock feathers on his back seemed to double in an instant. His eyes turned toward the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, and he let out a sharp cry.
Boom—
The entire sky instantly turned dark, as if the sun had collapsed.
All the crystalline light instantly disintegrated into countless fragments devoured by the darkness.
Within that boundless black, only the vast body of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor remained somewhat visible, but it seemed restrained by the sudden darkness, giving off a stiff feeling.
"What a powerful Space Quake," Asura murmured to himself.
He and Mei Gongzi were naturally watching this world-shattering battle. He had already stepped sideways when the fluctuation appeared, shielding Mei Gongzi. The terrifying spatial waves seemed poised to destroy the entire world. Both the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor and the Peacock Great Demon King tried to restrict their abilities, but despite this, the terrifying pressure still caused countless beings to freeze, paralyzed by fear.
As Asura stood before her, shielding her from the pressure, Mei Gongzi felt as if his figure was growing taller.
Wait, did he say Space Quake? He\'s not a member of the Peacock Demon clan, why would he know that?
Indeed, the Peacock Great Demon King used his bloodline ability to cause space itself to quake above the entire Kali Mountain Range. The shaking space shattered, turning into a terrifying spatial vortex that forcefully sucked in the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor. This was one of the Peacock Demon clan\'s signature abilities, a divine power only possessed by those at the tenth tier and above. Naturally, when the Peacock Great Demon King was using it, its power was simply terrifying.
The Peacock Great Demon King turned into a stream of silver light, and with his peacock feathers bringing forth numerous dazzling colors, he almost instantly arrived before the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor. The feathers flew out, aiming directly for the weak points of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor.
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
A series of crisp sounds, like morning bells and evening drums, echoed throughout the entire Kali Mountain Range, and every being in every corner of Kali City could hear them.
The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, seemingly frozen in the sky and restrained by the spatial vortex, had nothing but mockery in his gaze. "Are you giving me a massage?"
The pupils of the Peacock Great Demon King suddenly contracted, and the next instant, three golden, crystal-like phoenix tail feathers swept across, striking his massive body and sending him flying. He was enveloped in golden crystalline light, like a radiant cage!
A point of crystalline light brightened on the forehead of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, and the next moment, the pitch-black night sky lit up as if the sun had illuminated it, returning to brightness once again.
He snorted. "Have you forgotten what my clan excels at?"
The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor spread his wings, bringing forth two massive swaths of crystalline light, spreading for kilometers like blades that could split the heavens, charging directly toward the Peacock Great Demon King. And while he threw a verbal jab at his opponent, his attack did not pause for even a moment.
The Peacock Great Demon King, who was being swept away by the golden crystalline light, suddenly halted. "What your clan excels at? You mean hiding away?"
His voice made it clear that he was entirely unaffected. And in the next moment, he vanished into thin air.
The golden crystalline light enveloping the Peacock Great Demon King suddenly contracted inward, but it was now pressing on nothing. The two massive beams of crystalline light swept past, striking nothing but leaving behind a swath of crystals shards in the air.
A hint of puzzlement flashed in the eyes of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor; it had sealed all of the Peacock Great Demon King\'s pathways to connect with space, so how could he still teleport away? How had he managed to do that?
Even though there was supposed to be a vast gap between their cultivations, the suppression resulting from it was nowhere near what he had expected.
In the next moment, the Peacock Great Demon King, who had vanished into thin air, reappeared above Kali City. Brilliant silver light painted the massive city below almost silver. The blinding silver radiance gathered behind him, shining like a silver sun, and the Peacock Great Demon King\'s aura surged wildly. The gold on his forehead gleamed ever brighter, and the peacock feathers on his back were gilded with gold. Below, Kali City flickered with silver light, as if it was shifting in and out of reality.
The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor\'s eyes widened, filled with disbelief. "A Demon Emperor\'s aura? Impossible!"
The Peacock Great Demon King responded indifferently, "Nothing is impossible. It’s just that you’re a fool, and you made foolish choices."
The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor\'s gaze darkened, but instead of attacking, he silently observed the Peacock Great Demon King\'s aura increasing above Kali City.
"I see. You\'re borrowing your ancestors\' power. Using Kali City as the focal point, you\'ve gathered the ancestral fortune to enhance your cultivation. You haven\'t really reached the Demon Emperor level; it’s just a temporary boost granted by the ancestral fortune. I\'m curious to see how long you can maintain it."
As he spoke, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor flapped his wings, transforming into a massive streak of light and rushing toward the Peacock Great Demon King.
This battle left Mei Gongzi dazzled and enthralled. Without a doubt, such a high-level conflict was a rarity even across the entire Daemon Continent.
Strange auras pulsed through the air, with powerful energy fluctuations circulating. Each mighty aura was filled with an unparalleled force of nature. It was a clash between the mightiest of two great races, symbolizing this realm\'s greatest heights of power.
The battlefield instantly shifted from the Kali Mountain Range to the skies above Kali City.
At this moment, Asura suddenly released the vines entwined around Mei Gongzi\'s waist and said softly, as if speaking to himself, "The Peacock King cannot lose."
"Hmm?" Mei Gongzi looked at him, puzzled.
At that moment, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor had already charged above Kali City in the sky, crashing into the vast expanse of silver light like a comet.
But in the next instant, the comet appeared in the distant sky, teleported away, causing no harm to the Peacock Great Demon King.
The pinnacle of teleportation—Star Shift!
