Chapter 1186: Rage of the Sacred Academy
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
"Release her!"
The experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan were all shocked. They heavily injured the white tiger abandoned by White-eye. That tiger was being used as a sacrifice and was now lying on the ground, on the verge of dying to the burns caused by the phoenix flames.
"Chi…" A cracking sound rang out. White-eye's sharp claws tore through that maiden's outer layer of clothing, revealing a sparkling and translucent skin, causing the countenance of that holy maiden to turn ashen as her face paled.
"Vile beast!" The experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan cursed. Their wings slashed down, drawing blood from the poor white tiger whom White-eye abandoned.
"It's useless even if you torture him." White-eye coldly spoke. The other white tigers in the vicinity actually retreated together, blocking the mad pursuit of the Southern Phoenix Clan. White-eye had a firm grasp on the delicate body of that holy maiden and despite her frenzied struggle, how could she have the strength to break free from the grasp of a white tiger king stronger than her?
"What do you plan to do?" The maidens of the Southern Phoenix Clan had ugly expressions on their faces. This time around, the White Tiger Race actually did something so audacious, even to the extent whereby they were willing to sacrifice one of their comrades. There was something strange and illogical about this matter because although white tigers are despicable and violent, they are usually very united among themselves. If not, they would never have been able to become a peak power in the Western Regions.
"Naturally we are bringing her away to become our white tiger cub incubator." White-eye coldly laughed. He stretched out his paw and rubbed it gingerly on the stomach area of the maiden, making the other holy maidens so angry that the temperature in the surroundings surged up.
"The Southern Phoenix Clan's maidens all possess the blood of the ancient phoenix. See how beautiful she is, with jade-like skin. Back then your Southern Phoenix Clan barbequed a member of my race. Today, we will take this holy maiden away and allow my comrades to enjoy her." After speaking, White-eye directly turned and sped away together with the other white tigers.
"CHASE!" All the holy maidens had drastic changes to their expressions as they pursued after madly, burning with anger.
That holy maiden that was captured by White-eye, had a countenance as pale as paper. Her beautiful eyes flashed with desperation as boundless fire suddenly erupted around her, the flames so hot that they were even burning herself. White-eye had no choice but to relinquish his grab and toss that maiden aside.
"Chun`er!" An expert from the Southern Phoenix Clan called out in worry. They pursued over and the experts from the White Tiger Race all grew unsightly to behold. They suddenly remembered a legendary story of the Southern Phoenix Clan. The blood of an ancient phoenix had the power to undergo nirvana. In that case, was that immolation attack unleashed by the maiden he captured powered by the nirvanic flames? Right now, Nanfeng Chun's entire body was covered in a blazing crimson light, seemingly heroic and tragic at the same time.
Even her immortal-foundation was burning in the flames.
"RUMBLE!" Nanfeng Chun's burning body transformed into a phantom of a phoenix that flew towards White-eye. In the next moment, White-eye felt his heart trembling. With a roar of rage, he retreated with explosive speed while one of his comrades blasted out with a ball of baleful energy, causing Nanfeng Chun to cough out blood, knocking her away. Unwillingness flashed in Nanfeng Chun's eyes. She turned and stared at the white tiger captured by the holy maidens and sped over there with a flash of her silhouette.
"Chun`er!" That holy maiden who captured the white tiger had a drastic change to her expression. She understood the determination of Nanfeng Chun. She tossed out the white tiger in her hand and Nanfeng Chun's phoenix flames directly covered the white tiger, burning it amidst screams of agony, the sound attracting several experts over.
That powerful white tiger was about to be roasted. At this instant, Nanfeng Chun no longer cared about the rules of the sacred academy and launched an attack with the intent to kill. Since she has already ignited her nivanic flames, what else has she got to lose? She no longer feared anything.
The white tigers respectively rushed out, and it was the same for the holy maidens as well. Both sides were brimming with killing intent as they fought each other frenziedly.
"KILL!" A voice filled with rage thundered out. Blazing flames fanned over and that white tiger wasn't burned at all. Instead, it was instantly charred black, transformed into cinders, completely incinerated by the intensity of the flames.
At the same time, Nanfeng Chun transformed into a beam of light that shot towards a holy maiden. That holy maiden stretched her hand out, weeping in sadness. Nanfeng Chun has already vanished, transformed into a droplet of nirvanic blood. One could clearly sense the essence of Nanfeng Chun from this blood droplet. That holy maiden clenched her fists as a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Terrifying tribulation clouds appeared in the air as the laws of the academy created peals of thunder, powered by its rage. This entire space was completely covered, and regardless of the Southern Phoenix Clan's holy maidens or the white tigers, all of them seemed so tiny and inconsequential under that overwhelming pressure.
Nanfeng Chun was forced to transform into a droplet of blood. Before this, she spared nothing and went all out to kill a white tiger regardless of the price. In that case, who was it that had broken the rules of the academy? Or was it both side who had done so?
At this instant, everyone in the academy could see the seething anger along with the gathering of law energy of the academy in the air. A terrifying gigantic face appeared, formed entirely of the law energies.
"Since you all don't want to care about the rules here, in that case, have it your way. In the sacred academy, experts from both your groups can slaughter each other. In fact, for anyone who joins your groups, they will be exempted from the no-killing rule. I believe both groups should be satisfied with this outcome, right?"
A fearsome voice filled with anger resounded throughout the entire academy, causing countless people to wonder what happened exactly. Who was it exactly that ignited the sacred academy's wrath, causing the sacred academy to no longer impose the rules and making it so that life-and-death battles are allowed.
Although the experts of the academy felt that the rules were restricting them from settling grudges, in reality they all understood that the rules were in place to protect them. If killing was really allowed here, this entire academy would become the graveyard for countless geniuses.
But now, the sacred academy has allowed the two parties who angered it to kill each other. This indicated that many experts would soon die from battle.
For this point, the white tigers and holy maidens naturally both understood. Such a result even exceeded the White Tiger Race's expectations. They initially thought that after enraging the Southern Phoenix Clan a life-and-death battle arena like last time would appear. However because of the sacred academy's anger, there was no battle arena. As long as they are still in the sacred academy, both sides could kill each other with impunity, never resting until a side is completely annihilated.
Even the powerful white tigers all felt some trepidation in their hearts at this moment. If the Southern Phoenix Clan joined forces with those people who followed Qin Wentian and hunted them down, they would surely be in an extremely miserable state. Unless, of course, they could find a stronger alliance.
From a far, a group of figures clad in black could be seen flying over. The young man in the lead had an icy smile on his face. Everything has gone as he expected. As long as he wanted something, he would eventually get it at the end.
"Protect me, I just need to capture that demonic beast. There's no need to care about their battles." The young man coldly spoke as he slowly advanced forward. He was in no hurry. This battle between the white tigers and Southern Phoenix Clan has just erupted, he would only appear at the climax of their conflict as things would be much easier for him then.
"They have all truly gone crazy. If a large number of holy maidens and white tigers fall in the academy, I wonder would the White Tiger Race and Southern Phoenix Clan in the external world launch a great war against each other?" Another figure in the group laughed. He was filled with anticipation for that, and the more intense the war was, the better.
At this moment, everyone from the Southern Phoenix Clan and White Tiger Race were in combat. Nanfeng Yunxi, Purgatory and Little Rascal fought together and Little Rascal had transformed into a golden-winged great roc, his entire body seemingly made from golden metal. Also, whenever his talons struck out, a fearsome gold-colored vortex could be seen.
"Do it now." Those figures in black sped forward, directly rushing into the battlefield while emanating fearsome devil might. White-eye then roared, "KILL THEM ALL!"
White-eye understood that in order to avoid future trouble, it was best for them to kill the experts of the Southern Phoenix Clan.
However those devil-cultivators didn't give a damn about his orders, they instantly rushed towards the direction where Nanfeng Yunxi was at.
"Over there, be careful!" The experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan all had despair on their faces. Did the heavens want to destroy them? There was actually a bunch of devil-cultivators joining the fray.
At this moment, the experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan were already suppressed by the White Tiger Race. The devil-cultivators easily cut out a path, breaking through everything as they sped towards Nanfeng Yunxi.
"Yunxi, be careful!" Someone roared. Nanfeng Yunxi hurriedly retreated but to her surprise, those devil-cultivators didn't even glance at her at all. They all continued speeding ahead and were actually flying towards Little Rascal.
"Little Rascal!" Nanfeng Yunxi called out in a loud voice. Little Rascal's eyes flashed and stared at the man in the lead who was wearing a cloak. The wind gusted by as a familiar face could be seen. Little Rascal then shot up into the air, wanting to escape.
"RUMBLE!" The devil-cultivators all shot up into the air. A terrifying devilish palm blotted out the skies and smack outwards, causing cracks to appear on Little Rascal's golden body as he coughed out blood.
Nanfeng Yunxi turned pale. Little Rascal was the companion of Qin Wentian. If he dies here, how would she answer to Qin Wentian? But at this moment, she was truly helpless to do anything to aid him.
"Be more careful, I want the puppy alive." That young man in the lead spoke in a tone of ice.
"Mo Xie, it's Mo Xie!" Nanfeng Yunxi has also managed to see the face of the young man in the lead clearly. Back then in the City of Ancient Emperors, everyone knew that Mo Xie was an expert from the Myriad Devil Islands and had an extraordinary status. But because the people in the immortal realms were not very familiar with the Myriad Devil Islands, nobody knew for sure what his true identity was. However, since Mo Xie dared to kill Zi Daoyang, he should have a powerful backer behind him. And now, seeing that all the devil-cultivators are following his orders, his status in the Myriad Devil Islands should be extremely high.
Little Rascal howled as he tried to escape. Although Mo Xie's own cultivation base wasn't that high, his subordinates were all exceedingly powerful. Yet another devilish palm blasted down, shattering Little Rascal's wings. Mo Xie then stepped out as a devilish calamitous might enveloped Little Rascal, locking him within that space.
In Mo Xie's eyes, a sinister laughter could be seen. Finally, he would be able to gain another portion of the Heavenly Brahma Emperor's inheritance. He was exceedingly interested in this.
The heavenly devil lock unleashed by Mo Xie contained a countless number of devil runes whose might seeped into Little Rascal's body. Mo Xie abruptly grabbed his hands out and a moment later, Little Rascal was dragged over as Mo Xie's hand landed on his body!
