Any practitioner who had broken through the Meteor realm to the demigod-half immortal level, they were experts who could fly by forming wings on their back using Qi energy! This was the visible manifestation of having one foot in the mortal realm and one in the divine.Guo Jiang planted his feet on the snowflakes, at the edge of the floating arena. His descent was graceful and controlled, each movement precise as a calligrapher's brush stroke.There were no marks at all, everything looked as before. His control was so perfect that not a single crystal of ice was disturbed by his arrival.The snow was devoid of footprints, looking similar to the actions of Avril Windrider who rode the wind and set foot on a pile of snow. Both combatants demonstrated mastery over the elements, though through entirely different systems of power.Although he did not make a sound, with just a glance, Avril looked towards the shadowy stands. His eyes narrowed as he observed the reaction of the crowd to his

Avril stared blankly at the shadow of the golden Phoenix. His eyes widened in terror, reflecting the brilliant flames that approached like a harbinger of doom.This was heat beyond measure. Never in his life had Avril felt such pain. The inferno engulfed him completely, turning his emerald robes into ash within seconds and melting the Wind Serpent Fang that had slain countless foes.But the pain did not last long. It was only a fleeting moment.Avril Windrider was gone from this world, forever. His body shattered, leaving dust that scattered with the snow in the arena.Then it melted, flowing with the snow that melted due to the Phoenix's heat, appearing to hit until now still making the arena hot. Steam rose from the ground where his remains had fallen, carrying the scent of ozone and burnt magic into the frigid mountain air.The golden phoenix then faded. Its magnificent wings folded inward, the brilliant flames dimming like a sunset giving way to night.After that, it disappeared l

"It is time for you to leave. After receiving the Queen's Eye Artifact, as well as holding the highest title, Sorcerer of the World, this arena on Mount Nalfrost will be sealed with a seal. Three years from now, this arena will open again!" The magical voice ended its instructions. The words hung in the air like frost, final and unyielding.While at the same time Guo Jiang felt the world spinning. Lightning and sparks seemed to fill his vision, dancing across his sight like fireflies in a summer night.He entered the portal, and was sent back to the Almaria Continent. The transition was disorienting, reality itself seeming to fold and unfold around him as he traveled between spaces.++++++In the Hall of the Orange Dragon Order, the grand chamber was adorned with banners of crimson and gold, depicting ancient battles where dragons and cultivators fought side by side against the darkness.Everyone stood up straight, watching the still blurry figure. The assembled dignitaries and warrio

The sky above the horizon of the Ocean of Nineteen Gods at that time was clear. The vast expanse stretched endlessly in all directions, its azure surface reflecting the sun's rays like countless scattered diamonds dancing upon the waves.There was not a single cloud, so the spirit ship that was visible from the portal boundary - the boundary of Akatsuki Continent seemed to appear with an oppressive aura. The vessel cut through the water with supernatural grace, leaving a trail of disturbed qi that glowed faintly in its wake.The birds flying above the ocean seemed to feel disturbed by the presence of the spirit ship. Their wings beat frantically against the wind, their natural instincts warning them of the power that sailed below.They all chose to stay away - not to get close to the ship that carried the deadly aura. Even the bravest of sea eagles, known to challenge ships for their catches, circled at a respectful distance.The entire body of the spirit ship was made of Sky Tree Woo

At this time, the sun was leaning to the west. Its golden rays stretched across the water, painting the waves with hues of amber and crimson.Dusky rays appeared in the sky of the Ocean of Nineteen Gods. The light filtered through scattered clouds that had begun to form, creating pillars of radiance that reached down to touch the sea.The Spirit Ship of the group of slayers from the Sunset Sect, seemed to pass above the portal of the Silver Dragon Islands. The magical gateway shimmered beneath the waves, a distortion in reality that connected distant realms.The portal grew smaller and smaller, as the slayer group's spirit ship moved away, heading towards the West - the direction where the Silver Filtration Continent was located. The vessel's wake left a trail of disturbed energy that slowly settled back into the natural patterns of the ocean.Although the three youngsters were silent, but in their hearts - Mizusawa, Sakimoto and Iwakiri had goosebumps. Their faces remained impassive,
