The Human God - 8 Shocking The Phoenix Province

Teleporting Formations, they were the best way to move around the Deorum World, which was gigantic. The Teleporting Formations were separated in three categories, low grade, middle grade and high grade. The low grade Teleporting Formation were usually built and managed by the big and powerful clans like the Phoenix Clan or the Thunder Sect etc. Middle grade Teleporting were much rarer than low grade ones, and usually only the Empire knew how build those, as for the High grade Teleporting Formations they were something that were left from Ancient Era.

Elder Huang was rushing with his fastest speed to the closest Teleporting Formation that was under Phoenix Clan control, in less than ten minutes. There were people there wearing the Phoenix clan uniform guarding the formation.

“Who comes there!? This the Phoenix Clan….” but before that disciple could even finish Elder Huang flashed a scarlet talisman with the insignia of a Phoenix on one side the word Elder on the other.

“Activate the Teleporting Formation immediately” said Elder Huang.

“Yes Elder”

Then Elder Huang, with Kate beside him, stepped in the formation.

The formation was made in a hexagonal shape, to activate one had to use power stones, as they were the best source of energy, not just to power formations but even to cultivate.

The formation gave a white glow and Elder Huang and madame Kate were gone.

“That was someone from the upper echelon. He can even teleport directly to the main Palace” said one of the guards.

“I never even saw someone from that place” said another guard

“Forget it, small people like us will never be able to see that place.”

In the Phoenix Province the Phoenix clan was the local overlord, they were located in a special mountain range where the energy was so dens that one could even see it with the naked eye, even if a mortal lived here their lifespan would be two or three time more than normally. But that wasn’t all above the mountains were a couple of floating islands. Those were the place for the upper echelon of the Phoenix clan and the place were, only by using the special insignia one could be transported, The Ascending Phoenix Palace, without it you just will be sent to the Phoenix City.

The Teleporting Formationof the Ascending Phoenix Palace glowed and Elder Huang and madame Kate both appeared.

“Elder” a disciple bowed respectfully. This place wasn’t so heavily guarded because it was practically impossible to come here without the special insignia or an invitation from the Ascending Phoenix Palace.

“This is madame Kate, she is Arnold’s mother. Arrange a place for her to stay.”

“Yes. Made Kate please come after me.”

“I want to see my son first” said madame Kate.

“Humph” Elder Huang coldly snorted “This isn’t the Dacian clan or the Phoenix Cry City down below so do as I say. Now go!”

Madame Kate could only lower her head, but a cruel light flashed in her eyes “You dare to speak to me this was! Just you wait, when my Arnold becomes the clan head I will make sure you suffer” said madame Kate to herself. Then she left with the girl.

Elder Huang rushed to the main palaces and stopped in front of huge golden door with the image of a Phoenix undergoing rebirth and all living creatures prostrating before her.

“I request an urgent meeting with clan head or the protectors” then he bowed.

After some time the door started trembling and opened. A powerful and pure energy leaked out. This was the most sacred place of the entire Ascending Phoenix Palace, the Nirvana Palace.

“Come in” said a strong voice.

“Yes clan head”

Elder Huang rushed in. This place seemed like an immortal paradise inside, all kinds of rare plants and animals could be seen, and a very strong energy from heaven and earth could be felt, it had small and modest houses scattered around the palace, but Elder Huang knew that inside were the strongest members of the clan, they were the true reason why they clan could live like overlords.

He moved along a stone path until he came to small pavilion. Elder Huang bowed again and said “Clan head I have some urgent news!

“Oh?” the voice coming from inside the pavilion seemed curios of what Elder Huang had to say “What could have perturbed one of the elders of the Punishment Hall?”

“I went to the Dacian clan to help Arnold’s mother with something and while I was there a Johnson first son, didn’t die nine years ago”

“He didn’t die? How did this happen?” the voice was still calm as ever but Elder Huang this time felt a suffocating pressure, like he was about to die “How is his power?”

“He is in the early stage of the Saint realm, but he can fight with someone at the late stage of the same realm. But his combat experience is just too low.”

What Elder Huang didn’t know was that Maximus was consumed by rage that time, he wasn’t displaying his full strength. “But…” Elder Huang didn’t know how to continue.

“What” asked the same voice but this time with some impatience.

“I think he inherited that” said Elder Huang full of fear in his voice “Should we assemble a team to hunt him down?”

After some time a different voice, this time it was the voice of a woman, said “It would be if could capture him alive and use him to make a pill for Arnold”

“Excellent idea Protector Seva! This way our chances of success would be bigger. You can leave we need to discus this.”

Elder Huang was about to leave wen the voice of clan head Darius sounded.

“See if you can find him but don’t do anything to him.”

“Yes clan head” bowed Elder Huang.

After some time of rushing at his fastest speed Maximus finally came to where old man Bluemoon was.

“Master please you have to help me I don’t know what to do, my mother… she… she…” Maximus was choking in his own words.

“Calm down let me take a look” said old man Bluemoon as he extended his hand a strand of energy entered Lilly’s body. Bluemoon’s expression turned grave.

“Hey Lizard come here”

Then Argenti appeared out of thin air.

“Do you believe me when I say that I will reap that old “fishing pole” if you call me a lizard again?”

Then he noticed Lilly’s body which was losing life force at an alarming speed. He extended his hand and a strand of energy entered her body. Argenti face twisted in disgust.

“Humph such a cruel method, it was done by those disgusting chicken descendants.”

“Can you save her Uncle Argenti, please I beg of you!” Maximus knelled and started begging.

“I can’t” said Argenti in a sorrowful tone “This is very special kind of poison, I can’t believe they used it on a 2nd level Spirit Master.”´

Maximus froze it was like time had stopped for him.

“But if could get my hands on the hearth blood of a Phoenix I could save her, but that is impossible. The phoenix hearth blood is the biggest treasure of the Phoenix clan.”

“I will get it!!!” shouted Maximus “Even if I have to slaughter my way in…” but before he could finishold man Bluemoon said.

“Go and meditate on the lake for one day”

“But…”

“GO!”

“Don’t worry, even if I can’t save her I can put her in a special state that will allow her to live for three to five years” said Argenti.

Maximus didn’t want to meditate, but he still did as he was told.

Argenti shook his head and said “So much training wasted, he can’t control his emotion”

“I will let him go to the Phoenix clan” said old man Bluemoon.

“What?!?! Are you crazy?!”

“I will use that technique to change his aura and appearance, and let himinfiltrate. Every 20 years the Phoenix clan has a selection of disciples from outside, the best will be given some blood of the Phoenix. I know is not hearth blood but it can’t help her hold longer, and it will be good to help him temper himself. When he has the power he can directly slaughter his way in” said old man Bluemoon with a sinister smile.

“Your species… you are all crazy and madman’s!” said Argenti.

A few day later the whole Phoenix province was shaken by the news that the Dacian Mansion, the home of the new rising star of the Phoenix clan, Arnold, was attacked by a young man. He single-handed slaughtered about 50 people. But what shocked the people more was that all of them were at least 8th level Spirit Masters, with a few low stage Saints and even one middle stage Saint. But that was not all, at that time an Elder from the Phoenix clan, a peak Saint, was also there, after fighting with that young man he to flee with Arnold’s mother, madame Kate.
