Chapter 1004 Bloodline Rematch (II)

1004 Bloodline Rematch (II)

Huo Fenghuang was relentless after the first attack succeeded, trying to end this battle as quickly as possible. However, Ao Shen made the best move as soon as she tried a second sword.

His body shrunk to a size smaller than an ant, making her lose her target.

While shrinking, Ao Shen used one of his Metamorphosis Bloodlines to change into a small creature. His action was ingenious as hetemporarily changed the essence of his body. He was no longer a dragon but a tiny insect.

And since he was not a dragon, the effect of Huo Fenghuang's Dragon Slaughtering Attack was drastically weakened, allowing him a chance to breathe.

Ao Shen's transformation was brief because the Yin-Yang Reversal Technique was still in effect. As such, his act of shrinking and transforming was soon reversed to growing and reverting. The proud dragon acted swiftly and also used Yin-Yang Dao.

However, he did not try to stop his opponent's power; he had learned from his previous mistake and did not directly confront Huo Fenghuang using the same Dao as her; his advantage was his versatility and all the different abilities he had, so he would be a fool to outmatch an expert of certain fields.

Ao Shen encased himself into a Yin-Yang Cover, protecting him from the reversal. His method was focused compared with Huo Fenghuang's area affect technique, giving him a chance.

[Slaughter Eye]

During the final battle, Huo Fenghuang conversed with Li Jun regarding their respective understanding of Slaughter Dao. Afterward, she created this technique that perfectly combined with her Heaven Eye.

She saw countless red lines around Ao Shen's body, and she knew as long as she attacked these lines, her chances of instantly killing her opponent would drastically increase. And even if she failed, her attack would have a damage bonus that could make any Emperor suffer even with their natural healing abilities.

Swish!

Huo Fenghuang's speed was truly unparalleled.

She used Yin-Yang Dao to control the concepts of movement and slowness, focusing on increasing her speed. She used the small aspect of her Sovereign Dao to expel anything that could hinder her speed, including gravity, friction, matter, and even the restrictions of space-time.

Ao Shen sensed a great deal of danger, so he used one of his plans that previously failed???he entered an intangible state by using the power in the environment.

The dragon groaned in pain. His action was successful, at least in the current situation. Huo Fenghuang's attack was so powerful that it negated some of the power of intangibility. The excellent news for Ao Shen is she could not directly target his Slaughter Lines.

"ARGHHH."

A dragon road echoed in the void before a powerful breath attack rushed toward the female God of War. Ao Shen's only purpose was to delay her so he could react. Sadly, his attempt failed.

With a swing of her sword, Huo Fenghuang killed chaos, rendering the attack useless.

[Dao Killing Sword]

Ao Shen's eyes squinted as he sensed the target of this sword???his Chaos Law.

'How ruthless,' he thought. However, two could play this game.

Boom!

His mighty dragon body exploded into a fury of Chaos Flame, destroying the attack and pushing Huo Fenghuang back more than a few light years away.

Ao Shen knew a few bloodlines with the divine ability to abandon their body or shell in a time of danger as an escape technique. Typically, these creatures would enter a weakened period after using such ability. However, the dragon was prepared.

In this brief moment of peace, he accessed a secret dimension he had prepared especially for this occasion. He had enough energy in that place to recuperate quickly and return to his peak.

A terrifying sharpness emanated from Huo Fenghuang's White Tiger Sword. Any swordsman watching this battle would think she was one of them and among the best. However, that was far from the case.

Huo Fenghuang's sharpness originated from the metal attribute of the White Tiger. After pushing it to the limit, she developed this technique.

[Extreme Metal Strike]

As Ao Shen watched that sword slash rushing towards him, he felt everything in its path would be severed into two???whether it was time, matter, space, or even his Chaos.

'I guess it's time to use my trump card,' thought Ao Shen as his dragon body rushed forward instead of blocking or evading. His claws directly confronted that sword with extreme sharpness.

To Huo Fenghuang's horror or puzzlement, her slash was destroyed by sheer force, making her confused before thinking about something.

However, she was too late to react as Ao Shen was already before her despite her complete control of movement and slowness in the surroundings

Boom!

Ao Shen's dragon claw swatted her like she was a nuisance. She reacted and blocked, but her right arm exploded in the process. However, Ao Shen would not let this opportunity pass, and in less than an instant, he was already before her falling body and attacked once again.

Huo Fenghuang lost her left arm. Luckily, she was smart for the third attack. The five sacred beasts materialized before her and attacked Ao Shen.

The creatures were lifelike, almost like they were the real deal.

They were the same size as Ao Shen, and with them working together, they stalled him long enough for Huo Fenghuang to breathe.

'That was Will Manifestation,' she thought with slightly gritted teeth. Because of everything that has happened in the past few years, she has only achieved an Incomplete Will Manifestation, but Ao Shen had a complete one.

Huo Fenghuang knew how anomalous this was since even the other two Eternals had only achieved Incomplete Will Manifestation, and the new Empress???Tong Ruobing???was not a body refiner and did not count.

Moreover, from her experience and knowledge, she could tell Ao Shen did not just awaken and had great control. Furthermore, his Willpower was way above the standard and reached an abnormal level.

"Surprised?" asked Ao Shen, his dragon visage showing a smirk while his eyes flashed with dark lightning.

"Yes, but it made sense logically," she replied calmly. After a brief analysis, she understood the reason???the Heaven Law Tribulation. Ao Shen had to confront countless Emperor Wills through the Bloodline Imprints they left. Such an act should have tempered his Willpower to a terrifying level.

"What's next?" asked Ao Shen. "Do you want to continue or admit your defeat?"

Huo Fenghuang calmly looked at the terrible state he was in. Her opponent's Willpower had entered her body and inhabited her already subpar healing (to her standard).

Of course, she had another trump card in this situation???the Ancestor Will. Innate Demon Gods had the advantage that allowed them to fight the human race for so long during the Innate-Acquire War, and that was the Ancestor Will???a collective Willpower of their respective species.

Huo Fenghuang could summon the Phoenix,

Azure Dragon, White Tier, Black Tortoise, and Qilin's Will, and they would act in the same manner as Dao Will or Willpower Manifestation with a few restrictions.

Ancestor Will cannot last long and will eventually dissipate. Dao Will and Manifestation can remain inside a person for eternity, but Ancestor Will won't even last a few months. Despite its weakness, it was a great way to battle and kill the enemy.

'If I summon the Ancestor Will, he will probably do the same,' thought Huo Fenghuang. Even if Ao Shen did not know the technique, he could learn it with his talent during their fight.

Finally, she sighed and said. "I lose."

Ao Shen was surprised for a moment before grinning. He reverted to his human form with the grin still in the corner of his mouth, "That's all I wanted to hear."

Huo Fenghuang did not care about the mocking in his voice. Defeat was nothing to someone on their level; on the contrary, it was a learning experience to improve. Additionally, the difference between them is not so vast that it made her despite.

And even if that were the case, she would not succumb and accept her inferiority for all her life.

"Now, can we discuss things?"

Ao Shen did not immediately say anything but looked in the distance. With a thought, he blocked the sight of everyone that was watching this battle.

"So, why should I exchange with you?"

"Why shouldn't you? We both have what we wanted."

"That's not enough of a reason?"

"Do you want me to say the ugly part out loud?" retorted Huo Fenghuang, and Ao Shen was immediately quiet. What is the ugly part? The demon race was too weak to keep such a thing and make enemies of the Ancient Clan.

Although they had allied with the Sea Race, he knew he could not trust these people who were highly xenophobic. Ao Shen knew theconsequences once the news that the demon ace had this information spread out.

Even their new allies???the Sea Race???will want to get their hands on it. With this current strength, he can protect this method. But after he leaves, the demon race won't fare well, so his best choice is to exchange the technique to get as much benefit as possible.

"Fine, let's talk."
