The golden hall was magnificent and imposing.
Twelve massive golden phoenix-patterned pillars stood on either side, making everyone appear incredibly small.
At the very top of the hall, a man in a golden phoenix robe sat in the center, below him three slightly lesser seats occupied by one woman and two men…
"Greetings, Clan Chief! Greetings, Lord Phoenix, Lord Kunhuang, Lord Yinghuang!"
Huang Xuan bowed respectfully.
Behind him, Mo Tang also bowed slightly, mimicking Huang Xuan's gesture.
However, while bowing, he also took the opportunity to check his system map and saw the terrifying combat power of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan that had appeared in the entire hall!
"Three Dou Sheng, six Ban Sheng... and more than ten peak Dou Zun..."
Of course, this was definitely not the entire fighting force of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan... Putting aside everything else, just those dozen or so peak Dou Zun were all at least at the sixth level, and Mo Tang didn't think the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had any below the sixth level...
Even at the late stage of Dou Po, a peak Dou Zun was already considered a formidable powerhouse, and as for Dou Sheng, they were beings who could determine the survival of a race.
Of course, besides these, what shocked Mo Tang the most was the phoenix-robed man at the head of the table...
"A five-star Dou Sheng! And a late-stage five-star Dou Sheng at that!"
With such strength, apart from the trapped Dragon Emperor, no other demon beast race could reach this level!
"With just this patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, he could probably annihilate the now-split Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan..."
If Mo Tang remembered correctly, even the three Dragon Kings of the current Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan were only at the three-star Dou Sheng level.At
the Dou Sheng level, the difference between each star is like heaven and earth!
Mo Tang had no doubt that Huang Tian, a late-stage five-star Dou Sheng, absolutely had the strength to annihilate the four split Dragon Islands single-handedly!
However, this wasn't what shocked Mo Tang the most. After all, perhaps this was a bug in the original story? Or perhaps this Huang Tian patriarch didn't want to deal with the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan?
What shocked Mo Tang the most was actually the true form of this Huang Tian patriarch marked above—Ancient Heavenly Phoenix!
Yes, that's right, this patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan wasn't some Heavenly Demon Phoenix, but a true Ancient Heavenly Phoenix!
How could this be!
A look of horror appeared in Mo Tang's eyes.
Wasn't it said that the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix had long since disappeared from this world?
But why was there one standing right in front of him now!
No wonder this person seems so different; his strength far surpasses that of the Three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes…
Fortunately, Mo Tang was keeping his head down, otherwise his out-of-control facial expression would have already attracted everyone's attention.
At the head of the hall, Phoenix Heaven, almost enveloped in golden light, glanced at Mo Tang, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Elder Huang Xuan, is this the clansman who has been living in exile?"
A gentle voice suddenly resounded in the hall. Although the voice wasn't loud, it clearly reached every corner of the hall.
"Yes, Clan Chief," Huang Xuan replied respectfully.
However, at this moment, the old man with a gloomy face and hooked nose at the head of the table snorted coldly and said, "Clan members... Hmph! A bastard who has polluted the bloodline of my Heavenly Phoenix has no right to be our clan members!" Upon
hearing this, not only Huang Xuan was stunned, but even Mo Tang, who had been looking down, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
Bastard...
It seems that the one who said those words has become nourishment for my growth...
This statement not only surprised Huang Xuan and Mo Tang, but also the other two members of the Three Phoenixes beside them.
"Third brother, that's going too far... No matter what, he's still a member of our Heavenly Demon Phoenix bloodline, and he's one of our people."
The Kunhuang, clad in black robes, couldn't help but speak up.
As for the Phoenix in red, whose temper was even more fiery, she didn't even glance at them, seemingly uninterested in the matter.
Actually, the three had already argued about Mo Tang once before, but the result was similar to today's.
The Eagle Phoenix, having previously judged that this boy with human blood might be from the Eagle Phoenix lineage, was furious, feeling humiliated, and thus had always been very hostile towards Mo Tang.
As for the Kunhuang, based on the Heavenly Demon Phoenix bloodline, she agreed to let Mo Tang "return to the clan," preventing the bloodline from flowing out...
Just as the two were about to argue again, Huang Tian, at the head of the table, coughed lightly.
Although it was only a light cough, it directly interrupted their argument, immediately making the three phoenixes serious.
"Let's put this matter aside for now... Mo Tang, offer me a drop of blood so I can examine your bloodline..."
Mo Tang obeyed, drawing a drop of golden blood from his fingertip.
Since his bloodline had improved, his blood had turned bluish-red, and after the significant enhancement of his Ancient Heavenly Phoenix bloodline, it had gradually become dominated by a golden-red.
Seeing the blood drop approaching, Huang Tian and the Three Heavenly Phoenixes' expressions changed again.
It seemed that this young man, rumored to possess human blood, didn't have the lowly power of his bloodline as they had imagined...
The blood drop landed in his palm, and Huang Tian subtly formed a hand seal.
Instantly, a dazzling golden light filled every corner of the hall...
A soul-shaking phoenix cry resounded, and a golden Heavenly Phoenix soared into the sky, circling the hall three times before returning to the blood drop.
At this, everyone except the clan leader Huang Tian, including the Three Heavenly Phoenixes, couldn't help but stand up.
"The Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline? How is that possible!"
What did they just see?
This guy, whom they originally considered to have the lowest bloodline, actually possessed such a powerful ancient Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline?
There were probably no more than a handful of people present who could surpass this kid!
At this moment, the three Heavenly Phoenixes, Eagle Phoenix and Kun Phoenix, were filled with disbelief... Only Phoenix reacted the fastest, shouting, "Good lad! Clan Chief, I think we were all wrong before. He's not from the Eagle Phoenix lineage at all. He's definitely from my Phoenix lineage!"
As she spoke, her fiery red figure instantly disappeared from the spot, reappearing beside Mo Tang.
Although she was an old monster who had lived for countless years, Phoenix was still quite good-looking, only slightly less beautiful than Yun Yun. She leaned closer, patted Mo Tang's shoulder, and laughed, "Haha, lad. From now on, you're a member of our Phoenix lineage!"
Seeing Phoenix's reaction, Kun Phoenix and Eagle Phoenix above were speechless.
"Big sister, I say, isn't your decision a bit too hasty? The clan leader hasn't even said which lineage this kid belongs to yet..."
Kunhuang couldn't help but step down, looking at Mo Tang with a smile.
"Good lad, I see you have a connection with my Kunhuang lineage, why not become my disciple... that way your status in my clan will be comparable to an elder!"
