"Poisonous Old Lady, are you betraying the Human Race?!" Duobao Daoist Venerable coldly said upon seeing Li Zhongdao get struck away.

Though the Poisonous Old Lady didn't usually associate much with them, she had been around for tens of thousands of years and surely there should be some sentiment there.

"I was never from your Ancient Wilderness Demon Realm. I was merely framed and sent here; I have no feelings for you, but if you intend to harm my grandson, then you are my enemy!" Yu Lin coldly replied.

There was nothing to discuss with these people, but if they wished to harm her grandson, they must first seek her approval!

"Fine, if that's the case, then let the battle commence!" Duobao Daoist Venerable coldly declared. At this point, there was no turning back, and he had no choice but to brace himself for the fight.

In an instant, Duobao Daoist Venerable summoned several Chaos Supreme Treasures, which were collected painstakingly over tens of thousands of years traveling the Demon Realm, each possessing immense power.

Hence, he earned the title Duobao Daoist Venerable, relying on treasures in battle.

In no time, chaos ensued as everyone engaged in battle, while Chen Lan still charged at Li Zhongdao with deadly strikes, making Li Zhongdao sweat profusely.

"Your strength grows ever greater. If it weren't for you, surely I could be like you now!" Li Zhongdao roared in anger, blaming everything on Chen Lan.

If not for Chen Lan's intrusion, stealing his Thunder Dao Secret Technique, he would have been able to seize the Thunder Dao Divine Lotus and step-by-step reach Chen Lan's current pinnacle of Thunder Dao.

It's all his fault!

"You're insane." Chen Lan shook his head, seeing that Li Zhongdao was truly possessed by demons.

"Crazy or not, I'll have you dead!" Li Zhongdao shouted, eyes bloodshot, summoning his Dharma Body to try to kill Chen Lan.

Seeing this, Chen Lan pitied him; such a dignified Daoist Venerable, driven mad by his hand—truly pitiful.

But even so, Li Zhongdao still must die!

Holding the Thunderbolt Divine Spear, it rose slowly, spiraling and whirling, then with Chen Lan's two fingers pointing downward, it surged towards Li Zhongdao like a thunderclap, crackling with blue flames, moving with unimaginable speed, as if carrying apocalyptic power.

Boom!

A thunderbolt sliced across the sky, deafening and striking across the heavens.

Li Zhongdao stared, motionless, as a bloody hole appeared on his chest, with residual lightning still lingering.

Chen Han and Duobao Daoist Venerable glanced over and were shocked; Li Zhongdao was taken down in an instant!

Is this the number one person of the ages?

It's unbelievably terrifying.

"Your Thunder Dao has evolved to such a level, invisible and inaudible, reaching the nature of heaven and earth!" Li Zhongdao murmured, his life force rapidly fading.

That strike caught him without any reaction, piercing his heart.

It was too fast, beyond his Divine Sense's ability to capture!

The Divine Spear returned to Chen Lan's hand as he instantly appeared before Li Zhongdao, clasping Li Zhongdao's neck to prevent any soul rebirth or other life-saving methods, eradicating his soul completely.

As Li Zhongdao's body slowly disintegrated, turning into ash and dispersing into the air, the world showed visions of catastrophe once more—another sign of a Daoist Venerable's fall!

Chen Lan turned back to the remaining two Daoist Venerables: "Do you wish to die or flee?"

These two had no grudges with him, and Chen Han had even helped him before.

Chen Han and Duobao Daoist Venerable looked at the crowd, realizing they were powerless to confront him, and rapidly retreated elsewhere.

As the two retreated, Chen Lan turned towards the Phoenix, seeing two Demon Race Daoist Venerables fighting against it, along with numerous cultivators, all coveting the Phoenix Egg.

Countless corpses lay on the ground, victims of the Phoenix.

"Master, shall we join the fray?" The Gold-Winged Roc approached Chen Lan and asked.

"Go." Chen Lan nodded, flying towards the Phoenix.

This is an ancient Divine Beast. Since he saw it, how could he let it slip away?

"Gold-Winged Roc, you've betrayed the Demon Race and sided with the Human Race. You are a disgrace to the Demon Race!"

A man with golden hair electrifyingly exclaimed, surrounded by crackling lightning.

"Master, this is the Golden Thunder Lion King." The Gold-Winged Roc noted.

He's also a Demon Race Daoist Venerable, wielding thunder, but not comparable to Li Zhongdao.

"Get lost! Who we join is none of your business!" The Gold-Winged Roc shouted at the Golden Thunder Lion King.

"Today, I will purge you, the traitor, on behalf of the Demon Race!" The Golden Thunder Lion King roared in anger, charging towards the Gold-Winged Roc.

"You deal with them, I will handle the Phoenix." Chen Lan calmly said. These two Demon Race Daoist Venerables were more than enough for the Gold-Winged Roc and his companions.

"Rest assured, Master. These two were defeated by me before." The Gold-Winged Roc laughed, charging with Snake Woman and Water Wind Dragon.

...

Chen Lan arrived in front of the Phoenix, gazing at the massive beast, feeling its aura, furrowing his brows.

Indeed, the Taoist Saint was extraordinary; the mere aura was so terrifying. He didn't know if he could leap through realms to defeat it.

So many attacked this Phoenix and yet it bore no wounds, showcasing its might.

And the Phoenix seemingly noticed Chen Lan, screeching loudly while stepping back, as if sensing Chen Lan's power, showing some hesitation.

Seeing this, Chen Lan raised an eyebrow and lunged forward with the Divine Spear.

Witnessing Chen Lan attack, others withdrew; they dared not compete with this mighty figure for the Phoenix, the one capable of killing Li Zhongdao with ease!

Roar!!!

The Phoenix screeched at Chen Lan and charged forward.

In an instant, a fierce battle erupted between a man and a Phoenix in the sky, causing the heavens and earth to tremble, frightening countless onlookers who quickly recoiled.

After a clash, Chen Lan and the Phoenix quickly separated.

"Indeed, as expected of a Taoist Saint, even its physical strength is terrifying!" Chen Lan looked at his hands, feeling the slight numbing of his tiger's mouth.

The Phoenix's claws were immensely powerful, but surely it wasn't unscathed either.

Glancing at the Phoenix, its claws visibly trembled, wings flapping continuously, evidently alleviating the pain.

Chen Lan laughed and charged once more. Let's see whose physical strength prevails in the end.

"Thunderfire Shocking Heaven Strike!"

Roar!!!

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, igniting blue flames in the air, like a shooting star, slicing through the Phoenix's body.

Simultaneously, the Phoenix, like an arrow, cut through Chen Lan's body, as both swapped positions and paused.

Witnessing this scene, the crowd was shocked, unsure who the victor was.

Pfft!

Chen Lan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, a deep and unmistakable claw mark appeared on his chest, fiercely burning, scorching his internal organs.

"Master!" The Gold-Winged Roc and other demons exclaimed in shock.

But in the next moment, the Phoenix screeched once more and plummeted down, crashing heavily onto the ground with a thunderous sound.

"As expected of a Phoenix, that strike really hurt."
