Under the combined assault of three hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs and the four powerhouses—Shui Lingyan, Zhang Ying, Wu Yuexia, and Tang Ming—twenty-five of the dozens of Void Demon Viscounts frantically trying to escape were killed outright.

Only a dozen or so Void Demon Viscounts proficient in escape-focused Secret Techniques managed to break through the encirclement.

"We actually managed to kill thirty-five Void Demon Viscounts in one go! On the Void Demon Battlefield, an achievement like this would be enough to earn the rank of General."

Wu Yuexia’s beautiful eyes gleamed with excitement as she looked at the corpses of the Void Demon Viscounts.

On the Void Demon Battlefield, a Void Demon Viscount is typically a General commanding five to ten thousand elite Void Demons. Unless a top-level expert from the Human Race takes action, hunting a Viscount protected by a heavy guard is extremely difficult.

Taking out thirty-five Void Demon Viscounts at once was as difficult as eliminating thirty-five Major Generals from the human army in a single operation.

Tang Ming’s eyes also flashed with excitement as he watched the Dragon Hunting Dogs. "This is all thanks to Shu Feng! His Spiritual Ability is terrifying. To think he can summon those monsters! He truly lives up to the name of a Heaven-level Spirit Ability User!"

Each Dragon Hunting Dog was incredibly ferocious, comparable to a Spirit Sect Realm expert. The Void Demon Viscounts could only instantly kill one if they used a Secret Technique and struck with their full power. However, when besieged by dozens of Dragon Hunting Dogs at once, even they couldn’t hold out.

A complex light flashed through Zhang Ying’s eyes as she gazed at the vicious-looking Dragon Hunting Dogs. ’I never thought that guy would be so strong!’

The Void Demon Viscounts were all ridiculously wealthy. Shu Feng found several treasures in their Storage Rings, gaining 1,500 points of Source Energy after breaking them down.

For the next few days, Shu Feng hunted everywhere, turning the area around Phoenix Mountain into a forbidden zone and driving all the Void Demon Hunters out of the region.

「On Phoenix Mountain」

The barrier set up by the Hunting King suddenly collapsed, and a terrifying torrent of flame erupted in all directions.

"Countless Void Demons should have gathered here today! Too bad I killed them all! It feels good to have peace. I truly am a great harbinger of peace."

Shu Feng glanced around, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly.

Four hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs were spread out around Phoenix Mountain. They stood guard over the area, and within a one-kilometer radius, not even a top-level Void Demon Clan assassin like Zhu Yeying could get close.

In the past, when the Flame Phoenix Tree’s fruits ripened, countless Void Demons and geniuses from various races would have gathered, fighting endlessly for the Flame Phoenix Fruits.

This time, however, most of the geniuses from the Otherworlds had been hunted by Void Demon prodigies like Giant God Unrivaled, Zhu Yeying, Ghost Hunter, and Eight-Eyed Kuang. Those top-level Void Demons, in turn, were hunted by Shu Feng, suffering heavy casualties. That was why no one dared to compete with Shu Feng for the Flame Phoenix Tree’s fruits.

Shu Feng activated his Spiritual Power, enveloping his body in a Membrane of Spiritual Power, and took a step onto Phoenix Mountain.

The flames, which could easily ignite an ordinary person, landed on Shu Feng but had no effect. A Great Spirit Master Level Void Demon Membrane already allowed him to walk through ordinary fire.

Su Mi walked by Shu Feng’s side, a crimson light flickering around her. The flames were completely unable to get within ten meters of her body.

A brilliant ray of light flew in from the distance and landed before Shu Feng, transforming into a tall, handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes.

The young man smiled faintly. "Greetings, powerhouse from the Blue Star Realm. I am Valenino, the Ninth Prince of the Fiery Sun Empire, one of the Three Great Empires of the Gulondo World! I wish to make a trade with you and purchase the Flame Phoenix Fruits from your hands!"

"We’ll talk after I’ve picked the fruits."

Shu Feng glanced at Valenino and walked straight toward the summit of Phoenix Mountain.

Valenino smiled. "Of course!"

As soon as Shu Feng reached the summit of Phoenix Mountain, he saw them: cherry-sized fruits on the Flame Phoenix Tree, each inscribed with Phoenix Spirit Patterns and wreathed in flames.

A fervent look flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. ’So this is a Celestial-level Treasure of Heaven and Earth, the Flame Phoenix Fruit! Consuming eighty-one of these will allow one to be completely reborn and obtain the Phoenix Bloodline!’

Both the Gulondo World and the Andoras World have phoenixes, but when the phoenixes of those two worlds evolve to their peak, they only reach the Spirit Saint or Demigod Realm.

The Phoenix Bloodline born from the Flame Phoenix Tree, however, is the bloodline of a Phoenix from among the True Spirits of Heaven and Earth. The two types of phoenix share a name, but they are completely different life forms. A Phoenix of the True Heaven and Earth Spirit Level becomes a terrifying Divine Spirit Level creature upon reaching adulthood. Aside from a few that still exist in the Void Demon Realm, they are basically extinct in all other worlds.

Consuming eighty-one Flame Phoenix Fruits could allow an ordinary person to ascend to the heavens in a single step and gain a Divine-level Bloodline. It was precisely for this reason that the Flame Phoenix Fruit was classified as a Celestial-level Treasure of Heaven and Earth.

Shu Feng took out several Flame Jade Boxes inscribed with special runes, picked the eighty-one Flame Phoenix Fruits, and sealed them away. Only then did a satisfied smile appear on his face.

A prompt sounded: "Massive amount of Source Energy detected! Extract? Warning: A terrifyingly powerful high-energy life-form is sealed beneath Phoenix Mountain. Extracting the Source Energy will cause this life-form to be unsealed."

’A high-energy life-form? This Flame Phoenix Tree allows people to gain the Phoenix Bloodline. Don’t tell me a Phoenix is sealed under this mountain?’

’This Little World belongs to the Hunting King. He is a terrifying expert of the Divine Level; the secrets of this world couldn’t be hidden from him. Perhaps this Phoenix was sealed here by him.’

’A massive amount of Source Energy! Should I extract it and break the seal?’

Shu Feng looked down at Phoenix Mountain, his expression wavering.

Shu Feng hesitated for a moment before asking, "How much Source Energy can be extracted?"

"Over one hundred thousand. The specific value cannot be assessed."

’This Little World has a suppressing effect from its Heart of the World. The upper limit for strength here is the Grandmaster level. Even a Divine Spirit Level expert would be suppressed upon entering. Of course, even if a Divine Spirit Level expert only has the cultivation of a Grandmaster, they would still be strong enough to crush us. Should I really release it?’

Shu Feng silently weighed his options, an intense internal struggle raging within him.

Shu Feng asked, "Can the Source Energy from Phoenix Mountain be extracted remotely?"

"Yes! However, physical contact with Phoenix Mountain is required."

’That’s good!’

Shu Feng glanced at Phoenix Mountain, a thoughtful look on his face, and then strode down the mountain.

Halfway down the mountain, Valenino said, "Hello again. Have you considered my proposal?"

Shu Feng replied, "What do you plan to offer in exchange for the Flame Phoenix Fruits in my possession?"
