Chapter 639: Avatar of Space
Both the queen consort and Wang Han looked pale at this moment. They had always thought that the biggest obstacle today would be the Peacock Great Demon King. They had been trying to find ways to restrain him using the internal laws of the clan and whatnot. But they had never expected that Mei Gongzi's strength would have reached such a level. First, her powerful divine consciousness completely surpassed their understanding of what a Demon King was like. Second, and more importantly, when she used her abilities, even they—Great Demon Kings, and strong ones for that matter—could feel that space was drawn to her!
It wasn’t that she controlled it by force; all of them could do that. Instead, she seemed to have merged with the space element, becoming one with it. She was not a manipulator of space, but a part of it. It was more like she didn’t have an affinity for the space element, but the space element had an affinity for her. This was something none of the Peacock Demon clan members present had ever felt.
This seemingly simple battle was in fact incredibly shocking.
Wang Ling was not the strongest among all the Demon Kings in the Peacock Demon clan; there were older ones who were stronger. However, he was definitely not the weakest. Yet in front of Mei Gongzi, Wang Ling couldn't even use his abilities; it wasn’t that she forcefully took him down, but that space energy left him of its own accord. Who in the Peacock Demon clan could compete with her? Even a Great Demon King couldn't surpass her control over space. Moreover, she hadn't even used the Celestial Plume!
If Tang San were here, he would instantly notice that Mei Gongzi's control over the space element had reached the absolute peak of this plane. She was now the one being most attuned to the space element in the entire plane—even the planar ruler itself could not do any better.
The Six Directions Eight Desolations Golden Fiend Tribulation was indeed incredibly powerful and terrifying, something Mei Gongzi couldn't have passed with her original cultivation. But now that she had successfully passed it, the plane itself acknowledged her, and this meant the space element was under her absolute control.
This was no longer just about the Peacock Demon clan's bloodline. After all, there were other clans with a space-attribute bloodline. But after successfully passing the tribulation with her human bloodline at the fore, she awakened a hint of divinity not from this plane but brought by the Asura Sword. In other words, she possessed some divine intent from her past life in addition to the one gained in this life. As a result, no one with space-related abilities in this entire world was closer to the space element than she was.
Wang Ling's strength was, of course, not something to scoff at. If he had abilities of another attribute, then even though Mei Gongzi would have inevitably won, it would have still taken her a while. But since they both had space-related abilities, and moreover both were from the Peacock Demon clan, the absolute attribute suppression made it impossible for him to exert even the strength needed to blink, let alone the strength to fight.
Such was the might of a true master of space.
Mei Gongzi silently felt the space energy whirling around her, as if rejoicing. She had gained new insights into this power after her breakthrough. She was yet to fully comprehend and internalize the benefits brought by the tribulation, but with these new realizations, the process seemed to speed up.
As she slowly descended back to the high platform, returning to the position where the Peacock Great Demon King had stood before, the Peacock Demon clan was silent.
Next? Wang Ling was defeated in one move, who the hell do you think is next?!
The queen consort's face was pale and almost on the verge of collapsing. Although she didn't know about Mei Gongzi being the Avatar of Space—since not even Mei Gongzi herself was aware—as the descendant of an Emperor, she knew a lot more than the average person. If her husband said that not even a Great Demon King could defeat Mei Gongzi, then that was the truth. How could they continue? At this point, Hundred Birds Greet the Sun had become a joke.
At this moment, a voice with a hint of coldness reverberated in the air. "Since outsiders are allowed, why don't I give it a try?"
Immediately, a figure shot out from among the spectators. As he appeared, the temperature in the air dropped significantly. A pair of dazzling blue wings spread open, and with just one flap, he was already on the high platform.
He was a young-looking man, and as he ascended the platform, his gaze at Mei Gongzi carried a strange brilliance.
The third elder of the Peacock Demon clan saw him and couldn't help but narrow his eyes, instinctively saying, "Ice Phoenix clan...."
Those ice-blue wings were unique to their clan.
The young man chuckled. "How can the phoenix race, the Kings of Birds, be absent from Hundred Birds Greet the Sun? I am Hu Mengyu of the Ice Phoenix Clan, here to challenge the heir of the Peacock Demon clan."
Mei Gongzi's gaze instantly turned cold, but at that moment, she heard the voice of the Peacock Great Demon King in her ear: "Do not kill."
Mei Gongzi was slightly taken aback. Indeed, at that instant, she had already felt a surge of killing intent.
Hu Mengyu looked down at the Peacock Great Demon King with a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, may I challenge her?"
The Peacock Great Demon King replied indifferently, "You may."
