Chapter 945 190: Clean the King's Side, Azure Dragon vs. Vermilion Bird

It has long been said that the Princess has begun her ascension, and this confrontation proves the rumors true.

In terms of talent and intelligence, the Princess can be on par with Tianxuan, but it was only because Tianxuan later acquired the Dao Fruit that she overtook her. As for the time spent in cultivation...

Don't be fooled by the appearances, one as beautiful as a blooming flower, the other seemingly aged, but in truth, in terms of age, Meng Jun is only a decade or so older than the Princess, making them of the same era.

With this thought, the old man mobilized his True Qi, vitality surging forth, his white hair turning jet black, and his aged figure becoming robust, returning swiftly to his prime.

"The old fellow definitely held back on purpose. He clearly follows the Wood Element Technique and walks the way of the Azure Dragon. How could he be this old at just over a hundred?"

A cold snort came from within the Vermilion Bird's divine form, and then the Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, setting the world alight.

This Vermilion Bird Form was clearly the transformation of the Princess herself, unlike the Azure Dragon, which was drawn using the Dao Fruit and shaped by gathering Qi. The Princess, atop the "Form Tomb," opened another phase, delved into the Vermilion Bird Dao Fruit, and cultivated the Vermilion Bird Phase, surpassing Meng Jun in this regard.

The Vermilion Bird Divine Fire covered the sky and earth, turning the world into a sea of flames, yet not harming anything, the palaces and pavilions below all remained untouched.

As the wings flickered, the fiery sky dome swept towards the Azure Dragon.

"All wood bows to spring."

Meng Jun, restored to his prime, immediately raised the Qionghuang Azure Dragon Banner. The Azure Dragon swung its tail, using it as a spear, unleashing ten thousand rays of Green Wood Spirit Light, which, with sharp momentum, split through the Divine Fire.

"Boom!"

The myriad spear-like Green Wood light beams pierced through the front of the Divine Fire. The Azure Dragon soared forward, with Meng Jun holding the Qionghuang Azure Dragon Banner atop its head, whipping the banner through the air, attacking across the void like a spear.

"Azure Dragon's Claw."

Man and Azure Dragon as one, the banner-spear struck with the force of wind and thunder, as the Azure Dragon roared and struck the dome.

In the face of such an attack, the Princess, having transformed into the Vermilion Bird Divine Form, dared not be careless, folding the Vermilion Bird's wings towards its center, as if embracing a giant star, manifesting a crimson star.

"Mars in the heart."

The Fire Star Lord governs fire, corresponding above to the Mars star, embodying both life and the principle of war and slaughter.

When the star manifested, dark clouds scattered from the sky dome, revealing a crimson giant star. The Vermilion Bird spread its wings wide, and the star shifted horizontally, colliding with the Azure Dragon, resulting in star quakes and dragon roars, while a furious wave swept across the vault of heaven.

The collision of the two unleashed a storm that tore through the Divine Fire, and the ensuing tempest rapidly destroyed the palaces below, reducing towers to dust.

It was only because the Divine Capital was located on nine earth veins, with the Imperial City being the convergence point of these veins, that the aftermath was limited to this extent.

"Perish!"

The Princess shouted fiercely, a crimson Jade Seal appearing above the Vermilion Bird, emanating an overwhelming Divine Power, bringing a surge of royal authority.

It's a Dao Artifact!

Meng Jun had always held the Qionghuang Azure Dragon Banner, yet the Princess had not utilized the Third Grade Daoist Artifact carrying the Vermilion Bird Dao Fruit.

Empowered by the seal, the star's power soared further, the Divine Fire igniting the wind and thunder, as the Vermilion Bird spread its wings, soaring into the air, with the wings swinging down like knives and swords, slicing through the thunder and wind, with its sharp claws descending, the flames falling like a canopy.

Meng Jun immediately moved the Azure Dragon Banner again, the Green Wood Spirit Light ascending like a mountain, yet it was forcibly shattered by the flames, the claws about to capture Meng Jun along with the Green Dragon's Head.

However, at that moment, a dragon claw appeared out of nowhere, with a dense Qi Mechanism gathering like a mountain, pushing flat towards the Vermilion Bird's body.

Simultaneously, a fierce gale and stormy thunderbolts erupted, as a golden Divine Dragon leaped out from the dark clouds, with wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and all other anomalies crashing down.
