Divine God Against The Heavens

Ye Xiao took a long breath and said a single word: "Devour!"

The moment Ye Xiao said this word, a big round black fissure appeared in front of Ye Xiao and started to forcefully suck the entire Thousand Illusion Killing Formation. Its sucking power was so powerful that it looked as if it could devour the entire world.

Even his Devouring ability was strengthened after he became strong. Only now Ye Xiao felt the might of the heaven-defying abilities that he got from the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon.

The entire Infernal Phoenix Plane began to tremble tremendously as Ye Xiao forcefully started devouring the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation. It was as though the skin was being peeled off from a body, the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation was being separated from the Infernal Phoenix Plane slowly.

It did not take long before a strange magical forcefully separated the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation and it was sucked into the black hole like fissure immediately.

The moment the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation was devoured, the illusion was broken and Ye Xiao once again appeared in the familiar world of magma. He was still flying in the air above the Infernal Phoenix Plane.

Ye Xiao flapped his wings and flew toward the top of the mountain. Since he could now once again control his wings, it did not take him long to reach the mountain top.

Ye Xiao was standing in front of the door of the Palace that exactly looked like the underground palace he saw before entering the Infernal Phoenix Plane. This door also looked very similar to the Moonstone Door he saw before. The only difference between this door and the door outside was that there was no 'Infernal Phoenix Plane' written on it.

Ye Xiao slightly pushed the door and the door opened with a cracking sound. What appeared in front of Ye Xiao was a long corridor. Its end could not be seen and there was no passage connected to this long corridor.

Ye Xiao stepped inside the corridor and started to walk. He kept walking and it took him around five minutes to arrive at the end of this corridor. At the end of the corridor was another door. This door was three meters long and two meters wide. A very thin line was dividing this door into two parts from the middle.

There were two Phoenix sculpted on this door, one at each part of the door.

Ye Xiao took a long breath and pushed the door.

"Creak!"

The door slowly started to open as he pushed the door. There was no trap inside this palace. Ye Xiao was already on a high alert.

After being trapped inside the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation, he did not dare to lay down his guard. Fortunately, there was no trap inside the palace.

When the door opened, Ye Xiao walked past the door and arrived in a big hall. There were four round pillars in the big hall and the entire great hall was shining brightly with golden light.

At the end of this big hall, there were two statues standing. Both statues looked exactly the same. They were an old man's statues.

Ye Xiao immediately guessed that these statues were the statue of the ancestor of the Zhu Family.

Just as Ye Xiao wanted to walk further to inspect the statue, an energy fluctuation suddenly appeared right in front of both statues. This fluctuation only continued for a very short while before it was replaced by a cold-looking old man.

"It's been thousands of years and finally someone came. Looks like my Zhu Family finally produced a... no, you are not a member of Zhu Family. Speak, who are you?" When the old man saw Ye Xiao, his expression suddenly changed as he did not even finish his sentence.

Ye Xiao knew that this old man was actually the remnant soul of the ancestor of the Zhu Family. He did not hide anything and stated the purpose of his appearance. He also told the ancestor of the Zhu Family about the deal between him and the Zhu family so that this old man doesn't misunderstand him.

"Sigh! Even after so many years, my Zhu Family failed to produce a martial artist that can cultivate to the Fifth Stage of Martial Ancestor Realm or above." The old man sighed in disappointment then he once again looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Young man, I saw what you have done outside."

"That..." Ye Xiao was embarrassed when the old man mentioned what Ye Xiao did outside. He devoured the entire Thousand Illusion Killing Formation forcefully without the permission of the old man in front of him. How can he not feel embarrassed?

But again, at that time, Ye Xiao could not think of a way to break the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation so he could only devour it. There was no other way left for him to break this formation.

Well, now that he has already devoured the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation, he can use it in the future to deal with his enemies.

"Although I don't know how you did it, still, I was really surprised to see that with your current strength, you managed to come out from the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation."

The old man said something that made Ye Xiao roll his eyes. But the old man did not stop here, he continued to say, "Thousand Illusion Killing Formation was something I got by a chance. It was actually stored inside a Formation Plate and I got my hands on that formation plate in an ancient ruin."

"I set up a formation in the magma so that no one can fly inside my Infernal Phoenix Plane. As for the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation, I used the formation plate to lay it down only for fun. There was no purpose in killing someone with this formation. At that time, I only thought that since no one can fly inside my Infernal Phoenix Plane, it would be impossible for anyone to activate the Thousand Illusion Killing Formation!"

Saying this, that old man looked at Ye Xiao whose expression has already become grave after hearing the old man. He was actually trapped inside a formation that was laid down only for fun by the old man. It was such a disgrace to the knowledge he got from the memories of the Ancient Formation God.

"Cough! Cough!" The old man coughed twice after seeing Ye Xiao's expression and said, "Well, you are an exception. I never thought that someone can use their wings to fly. You are not a human, right?"

Ye Xiao was confused when the old man asked this. He asked, "Why?"

"Because if you were a human, you should have used some kind of flying-type martial arts skill to create wings behind your back but in the end, those wings would be created by spirit energy and the formation I set up does not allow anyone to use their spirit energy to fly. Be it if one wants to create wings with the spirit energy, one will still be unable to fly under the restriction of my formation."

"But you were able to fly. It can only mean that the wings that appeared behind your back were not created by using a flying-type martial arts skill but they were your own wings. It can only mean that you are not a human!"

When the old man said this, Ye Xiao was stunned but before Ye Xiao could reply anything, the old man again said, "Well, you don't have to answer. No matter what race you belong to, you are still here to help my Zhu Family."

"You are here to get the Infernal Phoenix Seed not my inheritance, right?" asked the old man.

Ye Xiao nodded his head and replied, "Yes!"

"You are seeing these two statues, right. You just have to inject your spirit energy into the statue at the left side and you'll be transported to a small forest of a third grade country of the Vermillion Bird Empire. Inside that forest, there is a valley called Flame Serpents' Valley."

"Flame Serpents' Valley was given its name because from a very long time ago, for some reason, this valley is always full of Flame Serpents. Inside the Flame Serpents' Valley, there is a hidden cave. I have hidden the Infernal Phoenix Seed inside that cave. If you can find that cave, you will definitely be able to obtain the Infernal Phoenix Seed."

"One more thing, after being transported to that Forest, you'll be unable to use your Spiritual Sense and your cultivation will also be fixed at the Seventh Stage of the Origin Core Realm."

"You'll only have three days to search the hidden cave and obtain the Infernal Phoenix Seed. After that, you will be transported back to here once again. So make sure to not waste any time and do your best to find the hidden cave."

Saying this, the old man signalled Ye Xiao to walk forward and inject his spirit energy inside the statue that was standing on the left side.
