Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Reencounter with the Nine Phoenix Emperor, Slaying Leviathan



Whoosh...

The fierce wind howled, as endless yellow sand and giant rocks were swallowed into Leviathan's mouth. It seemed as though there was an infinite space inside his body.

Several people clung desperately to John's body, but it was to no avail. They were slowly being pulled towards Leviathan's enormous open maw.

It's over!

John felt hopeless. In front of Leviathan, there was no way out. He could only watch helplessly as he was gradually devoured.

Clang!

Suddenly, a sharp buzzing sound echoed through the air. In the distance, flames shot up into the sky, and scorching heatwaves swept across.

John vaguely saw that it was a massive Fire Phoenix with nine heads.

Whoosh!

A sky of flames descended in an instant, converging into a giant Fire Phoenix apparition that enveloped Leviathan.

"Not good!" Leviathan's expression changed drastically, and he tried to dodge, but it was too late.

Boom!

The enormous Fire Phoenix charged directly into Leviathan's mouth, followed by a thunderous roar.

The powerful suction force disappeared, and John and the others fell to the ground. Leviathan's colossal body trembled. He opened his mouth and released a burst of flame, which touched his body, immediately igniting into a raging fire that began to devour him. "Roar..." he cried out in agony, writhing violently. The strange flames seemed to burn from within his own body.

"What terrifying flames!" Ice Talker's face grew serious. She could sense the peculiar nature of these flames, which were far more powerful than ordinary fire. The power of laws could not even resist them, not even an Emperor-level warrior could withstand it.

Leviathan howled in pain and struggled desperately, and the group retreated further back.

Soon, he was completely still, his breath extinguished. The flames gradually died down, leaving him charred black. His enormous body, as massive as a mountain, had been completely carbonized.

The group couldn't help but swallow, instinctively looking toward the sky.

At some point, a woman had appeared, floating in midair. She wore a long red dress, her fiery hair dancing in the wind, her body flawless and pure, like an immortal fairy.

Nine Phoenix Emperor!

John recognized her at once and quickly bowed, "Thank you, senior, for your timely rescue."

The others also reacted, bowing respectfully.

Emperor-level warriors were lofty existences. Most people would never even have the chance to see one in their lifetime.

And, together with John, this was the second time they had encountered Nine Phoenix Emperor.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

Nine Phoenix Emperor glanced at John, her slender brows furrowing slightly, and she spoke in a calm tone, "John, you have never seen me before. This giant serpent was slain by you."

"What?" John looked up at her, puzzled.

Nine Phoenix Emperor's expression darkened slightly, her tone stern: "Do you understand?"

John was taken aback for a moment and quickly responded, "I killed Leviathan, senior, you've never been here!"

He had the feeling that Nine Phoenix Emperor was trying to frame him. It seemed like slaying an Emperor-level warrior was forbidden.

However, he wasn't afraid. If anyone tried to use this against him, he could always expose Nine Phoenix Emperor. It wouldn't be a big deal.

Upon hearing this, Nine Phoenix Emperor nodded in satisfaction. It seemed she could sense his concerns. She continued, "Don't worry. I've concealed the Heavenly Tribulation aura, so it will be hard for others to detect."

"Thank you, my lady." John bowed once more.

Nine Phoenix Emperor glanced over the vast desert and continued, "Did you kill Serpent King Medusa?"

"This..." John hesitated for a moment before nodding in acknowledgment. "Yes, Medusa has fallen."

He was somewhat worried. The Seven Great Kings were all backed by Emperor-level forces. He didn't know how Nine Phoenix Emperor felt about Serpent King Medusa.

Nine Phoenix Emperor didn't seem too surprised. With a casual wave of her hand, a token flew into his palm. She said slowly, "In a month and a half, come to Fire Phoenix City and attend the King's Conference."

With that, her figure flickered and she vanished without a trace.

Once Nine Phoenix Emperor left, the group finally sighed in relief.

"John, Nine Phoenix Emperor actually saved us," Sword Demon said, still feeling like it was

be refined once.

The remaining drop, he would keep for himself.

"Thank you, Master."

"Thank you, my lord."

Avis and Cand-Dragon were overjoyed, repeatedly thanking him as they immediately entered

John's World-in-Hand and began their closed-door cultivation to refine the blood.

John didn't stop them. He pocketed the final drop of essence. It was meant for him, but he

wasn't in a rush to refine it.

He turned his attention to the other two items.

[Dragon Orb: The source of Leviathan's power. Contains a separate world. Can be refined.]

A dragon orb?

John was puzzled. This item seemed similar to The Overseer's World-in-Hand, but it didn't disappear after Leviathan's death.

Furthermore, he could refine it directly and merge it with his World-in-Hand.

His mind stirred, and his spiritual energy entered the dragon orb. Inside was a vast and boundless world, even larger than his World-in-Hand. "This is definitely a treasure!" John exclaimed in delight. He had a strong feeling that if he

refined this dragon orb, his cultivation as The Overseer would undergo another significant improvement.

He looked at the final item—the key to the Mountains of Immortals, the key to entering the Mountains of Immortals.

"Let's go, into World-in-Hand," he reminded the others. With a thought, he entered his World-in-Hand.

He would need to ask Gaka how to use this key.

"Kid, how's it going? Did you kill Leviathan?" Gaka immediately asked upon sensing their

arrival.

He was well aware of how terrifying an Emperor-level powerhouse could be. He had been worried about Leviathan's condition after passing through the Heavenly Tribulation, and thus concerned for the safety of the group.

Now that he saw them return, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

John nodded and briefly recounted what had happened outside.

Gaka's expression grew serious, and he said, "I underestimated this guy's strength. But if Nine Phoenix Emperor owes you a favor, that's still a pretty good outcome."

"Nine Phoenix Emperor's favor?" John asked, confused.

Gaka frowned. "What? You don't want to take advantage of an Emperor's favor?"

John frowned slightly, realizing Gaka was right-an Emperor's favor was indeed incredibly

valuable.

Gaka continued, "She gave you that token to repay a favor, but you shouldn't let her have things her way." John was puzzled. "You mean, I shouldn't participate in the King's Conference?" "No," Gaka clarified. "Of course, you need to attend. But you shouldn't let Nine Phoenix

Emperor be the one to propose it. You should recommend yourself directly as a King. Make the other Kings keep their mouths shut."

John couldn't help but smile bitterly. Only someone like Gaka would dare to scheme against

Nine Phoenix Emperor like this.

But there was still one problem. He asked, "But senior, while my strength is comparable to

Nine Stars, I still can't make the other Nine-Star Kings recognize me, right?" Gaka was confident. "Haven't you still not refined the Mountains of Immortals yet? I have a

feeling that if you refine the Mountains of Immortals, it will merge completely with your World-in-Hand."

"Really?" John's eyes lit up. The Heavenly King had merged his World-in-Hand completely, and even though his cultivation was only at Nine Stars, his position was no weaker than an

Emperor's. If he could also merge the World-in-Hand with the Mountains of Immortals, becoming one

of the Seven Great Kings would be a piece of cake.

"Of course," Gaka said with certainty, then explained how to activate the key and enter the

Mountains of Immortals.

John memorized the instructions, then left his World-in-Hand and activated the key.
