At that pivotal moment, seizing the opportunity Wang Lin himself had forged, as the rainbow flames hindered the sorcery of the figure within, Wang Lin didn’t hesitate. He unleashed the Phoenix Feather, bestowed upon him by the First Generation Vermillion Bird, a treasure meant to slay the Third Generation Cursed Bird. Amidst the fiery maelstrom, as Wang Lin uttered the ancient incantation to summon the Vermillion Bird’s Source Spirit, the heavens themselves blazed with fury. The inferno roiled and surged, forming a colossal vortex directly above Wang Lin. This vortex, the instant it materialized, seemed to become a ravenous abyss, as though it had torn open a gateway to a realm unknown. In that very breath, a cry echoed forth from the depths of the abyss, the voice of the Vermillion Bird itself, a sound that reverberated through existence.

At that earth-shattering cry, a primal fear gripped Wang Lin’s heart, causing his four times awakened Vermillion Bird to manifest, its eyes wide with instinctive dread. Even Wang Lin’s own soul seemed to cower before that voice. Meanwhile, the rainbow hued Vermillion Bird behind the mid-aged figure within the colored flames, uttered a discordant shriek, fear shimmering in its eyes, preventing it from rising into the heavens. A sudden change in the scene, the mid-aged man’s eyes began to narrow. “The old fool! He would gift you with that to destroy me?”

Along with the dreadful Vermillion Bird cry, from within the sky’s flames, a terrifying power began to seep, descending towards the realms below. The power that spread was one that increased the heat in the air, until it was as though they were in the realm of flames. And furthermore, from the heavens, the sight that Wang Lin would never forget appeared before him, in a scene of horror. There, from out of the vortex, a colossal Vermillion Beak began to descend with the roar of thunder, so immense that it took up the entire sky. With this, the pressure increased at an immeasurable amount.

The Vermillion Bird Source Spirit! That feather, the most precious of treasures from the First Generation Vermillion Bird, was all that he had. But that object now summoned the true Vermillion Bird that dwells within the First Generation Vermillion Bird’s homeland. It was not the innate Vermillion Bird that was cultivated by the Vermillion Bird clan, but a living thing! The beak descended with great sounds from within the vortex, causing the sky’s fire to fall in waves as it lowered down, straight towards the middle aged man. With this descent, the sky and heavens turned into the Vermillion Bird’s head, it’s divine appearance was truly frightening. With a quick glance from Wang Lin, he was able to recognize the rage that was written on its face, for it resembled the First Generation Vermillion Bird. The heavens and earth shuddered, and the monstrous beak, with an incomparable speed, soon fell down to within a hundred feet of the flames, the scene was similar to one where an Ancient God struck with one finger, but this display overshadowed that by far. If one had to compare, one could only say that an Eight Star Ancient God would be able to hold this attack. The middle aged man screamed in anger, both his hands waving, and thus the seven colored flames around his body erupted upwards, turning into a Vermillion Bird, to face the descending beak.

The sounds of explosions shook the very heavens and earth. As the Seven-Colored Vermillion Bird clashed against the descending Vermillion Beak, it emitted a pitiful cry before crumbling. The middle aged man spurted a mouthful of blood, and his face, filled with rage, formed some seals with his hands and cried in a low voice, “Earth, Water, Fire, Wind!”

His words shook the realm, with his first word, a limitless land arose under his feet, with his next word, endless waters rose to fill the land. With the word of fire, the waters began to burn with rainbow flames that pierced the heavens. As the last word came, gusts of wind erupted, sweeping across the flames.

“Four Great Emptinesses!” the middle-aged man roared, shoving his hands forward. Gusts of wind shot towards the Vermillion Bird Beak, and behind that was the sea of flame, also shooting towards the beak. Behind that was the vast body of water, and finally the land itself, moving like a stone to plug a hole in the sky. This scene caused Wang Lin to tremor. Whatever this man, or that beak was doing, was in another league when compared to Simao Zi and Shui Dao Zi. If these two powers clashed, there would be an explosion that could destroy the Fire Sparrow Clan! Wang Lin might not even survive! Unless he used the same great power, to counteract the destruction that was about to commence, or he left the borders of this world. But if he did, he would have to give up the chance to heavily wound, or kill that Lord of the Divine. If he missed this, when will he have a chance like this again? Never letting an opportunity escape, Wang Lin was determined to do something that would shake the heavens! Destroy the Thunder Clan, and slay the Lord of the Divine! “How vicious, First Generation Vermillion Bird!” Wang Lin cried, “To think he had this planned!” The old man knew what he was doing all along, but he had to do this, and now, he will have to fight with the skills the old man taught him!

Without any hesitation, Wang Lin brought up his hands and started to form seals! In the first breath, the winds came into contact with the beak, and they released a great crash that echoed through the sky! The winds gave way, and the Vermillion Bird Beak shook! Wang Lin struck with his first series of seals! In front of him, the skies darkened as a giant flaming bone appeared in front of him! In the second breath, flames raged upwards, colliding against the Vermillion Bird Beak. The heavens crashed, and the beak began to tremble as the flames began to break! The second burst of pressure roared! Wang Lin struck with his next series of seals, and on top of the giant bone, umbrella spokes began to form. At the third and fourth breaths, the waters began to crash against the Beak. With the third burst, the pressure struck. and with the fourth, the Vermillion Bird shot out a gust of terrible breath as the front of the Beak began to crumble! At that instant, an earth-shattering sound reverberated across the sacred grounds of the Fire Sparrow Clan. The Lord of the Divine let out a cry. The Vermillion Bird Beak had broken. Then, on the verge of shattering, the third shockwave spread outward, creating countless rifts in the starry sky. A wild aura permeated the cosmos, and the sacred ground of the Fire Sparrow Clan began to collapse under the force of this impact. The breath that the Vermillion Bird Source Spirit released crashed against the land, causing cracks to form. With this land about to crumble, the Lord of the Divine spurted out blood and pushed the land towards the heavens! The land absorbed the blood, and with a newfound momentum, rose and covered the sky.

The cosmos shuddered, the shockwave spread, and as the cosmos began to break, the Lord of the Divine spurted out blood and stared at Wang Lin, before moving towards him. Wang Lin was hurt by the shockwave, and blood dripped from his mouth, but he moved even faster to form seals. He began to form millions of these seals around him.

The Lord of the Divine’s expression changed drastically. “To think, that old man taught you this skill!” Without any pause, he moved towards Wang Lin, but the Ancient Wood Sprite appeared and tried to hug him.

The Lord of the Divine roared, and waved his hands forward. A great power rose up and turned into a palm.

The Ancient Wood Sprite shuddered, but its body was crushed by the palm and flew towards Wang Lin. But at the ninth breath, Wang Lin struck with the last seal! His hands were bleeding, and he had barely moved for so long. But there, around him, millions of seals gathered to form a storm. From the flaming bones, a giant umbrella began to form. “World Burning Ancient Umbrella!” Wang Lin roared, as at the instant the Palm came upon him, he used the Vermillion Bird clan’s most powerful technique! This was a technique that he had barely mastered, but he was one of the Vermillion Bird clan. Blood spurted out as Wang Lin could feel the life force from his body being sucked dry. “Umbrella, crush the heavens!” Wang Lin roared, releasing the power of his seals!
