The Great Saint of the Tempest, Feng Kui, unleashes his full power to break free from Ye Zhen's trap. Despite being hit by arrows, Feng Kui counters, targeting Ye Zhen. However, Ye Zhen and his summoned allies, Divine Archer Yiz Lie and Daii Qin, escape. Daii Qin then unleashes a powerful, ancient arrow that Feng Kui recognizes with fear.

"Sunset Divine Shot, unbelievable! How could this be?"

Fear showed clearly in Fengg Kui’s eyes, yet his face held immense shock. "Just what are you...?"

"Pfft!"

Before the word ’you’ could be fully spoken, the blue-black arrow, identified by Fengg Kui as the Sunset Divine Shot, ripped through several feathers on the Green Winged Wind Kite and plunged sharply into Fengg Kui’s right wing rib!

With a choked grunt, the rhythm of Fengg Kui’s right wing immediately mismatched the left, causing his body to skew and his speed to plummet.

Still, Fengg Kui fought with evident desperation, beating his Green Wings as he retreated, fixing the Divine Archer Daii Qin with a fearful gaze.

Even with one wing critically injured, Fengg Kui’s speed was truly remarkable, vanishing into a tiny black dot in an instant.

Daii Qin’s brows furrowed as his gaze shifted towards Ye Zhen.

Before Divine Archer Daii Qin could utter a word, Ye Zhen utilized his divine sense, instantly repositioning himself alongside Daii Qin, Yiz Lie, and Yud Lei directly in front of the desperately fleeing Great Saint of the Tempest, Fengg Kui.

"You think you can escape? What a dream!"

As Ye Zhen’s chilling laughter echoed, Divine Archer Daii Qin loosed another blue-black Sunset Divine Shot, aiming directly at Fengg Kui!

This projectile was targeted at Fengg Kui’s left wing rib.

However, facing the Sunset Divine Shot this time, Fengg Kui did not exhibit the same panic as before.

A straight beam of blue light shot from his massive bird eyes, hurtling towards the blue-black arrow.

Yet, Fengg Kui’s Green-eyed Heavenly Eye Spirit Light proved ineffective against the Sunset Divine Shot. The arrow’s light flickered, seeming to traverse space and bypass the green-eyed heavenly eye blast from Fengg Kui, swiftly striking Fengg Kui’s left wing rib once more!

Nevertheless, at the critical moment, Fengg Kui forcefully folded his giant Green Wing inward. The Sunset Divine Shot managed to create a substantial hole rather than striking the vital rib area.

Despite this, blood continued to pour out, drastically reducing Fengg Kui’s speed!

"This is not the Sunset Divine Shot!" Fengg Kui suddenly realized, his expression regaining a degree of composure.

Divine Archer Daii Qin’s cold laughter followed. "Naturally, this is not the Sunset Divine Shot!"

"If this were the true Sunset Divine Shot, how could you possibly perceive a second arrow! This is merely a sliver of intent derived from the Sunset Divine Shot, a mere Sunset Residual Arrow!"

"Sunset Residual Arrow? A partial understanding of the Sunset Divine Shot? You... what is your connection to Yie Shee?"

While altering his course as he fled, Fengg Kui persistently inquired.

Hearing this, Divine Archer Daii Qin was instantly enraged. "The revered name of Yie Shee is not for a mere feathered creature like you to utter! I am simply a successor within the arrow lineage of the great Yie Shee; today, I shall eliminate remnants such as yourself in honor of the great Yie Shee!"

In his fury, Divine Archer Daii Qin nocked a third Sunset Residual Arrow onto his bowstring but refrained from releasing it immediately. The aura emanating from this unshot third Sunset Residual Arrow surged rapidly.

"Divine Envoy Ye, Brother Daii Qin’s Sunset Residual Shot can unleash a maximum of three arrows! This final one should severely injure Fengg Kui, after which it will fall to us to finish this fiend!" Divine Archer Yiz Lie’s transmission through Divine Soul Telecommunication reached Ye Zhen suddenly.

Concurrently, Divine Archer Yiz Lie also drew his bow and arrow. However, the moment he drew his weapon, his expression shifted to one of astonishment, tinged with a hint of joy amidst the surprise.

Not only Divine Archer Yiz Lie, but even the Yutu Barbarian Guardian Battle Spirit, Yud Lei, displayed expressions of surprise and happiness at this precise moment.

Simultaneously, upon hearing Divine Archer Daii Qin’s words, the Great Saint of the Tempest, Fengg Kui, saw his expression rapidly transform from shock to outright anger, and the aura surrounding him instantly turned volatile.

"Remnants of Yie Shee? You are indeed the sworn enemies of our clan for generations, the remnants of Yie Shee..."

Before these words were even half-spoken, Divine Archer Daii Qin’s figure vanished, reappearing a thousand meters ahead of Fengg Kui.

The Great Saint of the Tempest, Fengg Kui, grinding his teeth, was taken aback and quickly attempted to retreat!

Whoosh!

At the precise instant an unbearable, piercing sound echoed, a blue-black arrow of light pierced the sky, viciously impaling the azure light that the Great Saint of the Tempest, Fengg Kui, was transforming into.

"Just as your ancestor Strong Wind could not escape being shot dead, how could a minor remnant like you evade me!" Divine Archer Daii Qin declared with a cold laugh.

"Nonsense!"

"Our ancestor was felled by your treachery and schemes, not by your arrows!" the Great Saint of the Tempest bellowed in rage.

"Words like that are for your ancestor Green Winged Wind Kite when you return! Wind Kites such as yourself, I've slain not eight thousand, but ten thousand in the past!" Divine Archer Yiz Lie's booming laughter echoed, as streaks of arrow light descended like a furious tempest upon the Great Saint of the Tempest, Fengg Kui!

Simultaneously, Yud Shi reappeared directly above the Great Saint of the Tempest's head, a colossal Stone Hammer descending towards Fengg Kui's skull.

The Purple Spirit Immortal Sword's blade light also manifested once more, targeting the Great Saint of the Tempest's midsection.

Much like the previous decisive blow, Fengg Kui's body was now riddled with wounds. Both his immense wings were severely compromised, and to make matters worse, Divine Archer Daii Qin's third arrow was deeply embedded in Fengg Kui's neck.

Following the release of his third arrow, Divine Archer Daii Qin's imposing aura experienced a slight diminishing.

At this precise moment, Fengg Kui found himself further entrapped by the binding power of Ye Zhen's War Soul Blood Flag.

The radiant sword light of the Purple Spirit filled Fengg Kui with dread!

Should the Purple Spirit's blade slice open his abdomen, his demise would be absolute.

His colossal form twisted violently, evading the Purple Spirit's luminous attack, yet this maneuver left him vulnerable elsewhere!

BAM!

First, the mountain-sized Stone Hammer wielded by Yud Shi brutally impacted Fengg Kui's head, causing his entire being to shudder uncontrollably, his vision momentarily blurring.

To be struck squarely on the head by a hammer of such immense weight was a disorienting ordeal.

Divine Archer Yiz Lie, discerning the critical opening, swiftly unleashed a Spirit Arrow, piercing the right eye of the Great Saint of the Tempest with unerring accuracy.

Engulfed in agony, the Great Saint of the Tempest let out a mournful howl, his mind thrown into utter disarray!

Both Yiz Lie and Yud Shi, alongside Purple Spirit, were battle-hardened veterans, exceptionally skilled at exploiting fleeting combat advantages!

Yud Shi's feet were firmly planted on Fengg Kui's back, his Stone Hammer swinging with the force of a gale, punctuated by the sickening sounds of cracking bones and tearing sinews.

Purple Spirit, transforming into an elusive streak of sword light, wrought havoc upon Fengg Kui's abdomen, each precise incision carving out a substantial wound.

Were it not for Fengg Kui's immense stature, his innards would have been spilled long ago.

"Go!"

"This is the bloodline of a Dao Realm Demon Clan Great Saint – a prime opportunity for you two to nourish yourselves!" Ye Zhen gestured with his sleeve, and the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten and the Nine-Headed Beast sprang forth from his embrace, accelerating towards Fengg Kui!

"Hahaha, as I declared before, every single descendant of Strong Wind shall meet their end, perishing by our hands!" Observing the Great Saint of the Tempest's imminent downfall, Divine Archer Daii Qin erupted in hearty laughter.

"No!"

"This shall not come to pass!"

The Great Saint of the Tempest shrieked with unbridled hysteria, "Our Bloodline of Strong Wind is the most revered in existence! You cannot possibly inflict harm upon it!"

As the hysterical screams reached their zenith, a multitude of dazzling azure lights erupted from the Great Saint of the Tempest's very form. In the instant these lights exploded, each elongated azure feather adorning the Great Saint's body – each as robust as a Mid-grade Town Artifact – was consumed, transforming into brilliant blue flames.

These blazing blue flames possessed unparalleled sharpness. As they erupted outward, Yud Lei, with a yowl of pure agony, leaped back like a startled insect, clutching his partially incinerated foot.

"What is this?"

Divine Archer Daii Qin's expression shifted dramatically. Then, as if a memory resurfaced, his face contorted in alarm, his voice laced with tremor.

"Quickly!"

"Dispatch him without delay!"

"This is theEXCLUSIVE Blood Refining Azure Feather Flame, utilized by the Clan of Strong Wind to enhance bloodline purity! If allowed to persist, he could potentially elevate his bloodline to evolve into a true Ancient Fierce Beast – a Strong Wind!"

"What?"

"A genuine Ancient Fierce Beast, Strong Wind?"

Ye Zhen gazed upon the fallen Fengg Kui, his colossal form now swathed in azure flames, his own expression undergoing a rapid transformation!

For he could clearly perceive that under the searing embrace of the Blood Refining Azure Feather Flame, Fengg Kui's physical form and aura were undergoing a profound and swift metamorphosis!
