Chapter 123 Undeniable Strength
"Oh my god, what happened?"
The onlookers rubbed their eyes in disbelief. One of them shouted, his voice filled with shock and confusion, "Was I seeing things? How did Princess Nihuang's Flaming Serpent Whip suddenly disappear?"
As soon as one person asked the question, another echoed, their voice trembling as if they had witnessed something unbelievable. "I didn't see it clearly either!"
"That was a magical treasure! How could it turn to ashes in the blink of an eye?"
"Could it be that the Flaming Serpent Whip couldn't withstand the power of the Phoenix and thus spontaneously combusted?"
"Impossible!" A man in a blue robe suddenly stepped forward and retorted with unwavering conviction. His face was full of disdain, as if he had heard the most absurd joke.
"Is this the first time you've met Princess Nihuang? This Flaming Serpent Whip, a spiritual treasure of this rank, was a birthday gift personally bestowed upon her by His Majesty the Emperor on her fifth birthday. It holds extraordinary significance!"
He paused, looked around, and raised his voice, saying, "This whip is made of thousand-year-old black iron and has been meticulously refined by the royal craftsmen. It is indestructible!"
He pointed a finger at the spot that had turned to ashes, his tone even more certain, "Over the years, Phoenix Fire has clung to it more than once. If it could really spontaneously combust, it would have done so long ago! You ignorant fools, don't spout nonsense!"
The Soul Artifacts of the Xuan Tian Continent are strictly ranked, from lowest to highest as follows: Mortal Artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, Treasure Artifacts, Spiritual Treasures, Immortal Artifacts, Divine Artifacts, Chaos Treasures, Law Artifacts, Immortal Sacred Objects, and Heart of the Void.
The latter four types are only heard of in legends; no one has ever seen them.
Due to the scarcity of weapon refiners in the Northern Abyss, the highest-level soul weapon currently available is only a Celestial Weapon.
There is only one of these celestial artifacts, which is in the hands of the emperor. The number of spiritual treasures is also very limited. One of them is the Flaming Serpent Whip in the hands of Princess Nihuang!
Now that Lingbao has been destroyed, they are all heartbroken.
Listening to everyone's boasting, Shen Yunxi's lips curled up slightly. She thought to herself: Xue Rong's charm is indeed useful. Just now, she used Xue Rong's charm. In the eyes of others, she did not move at all. They did not even see her strange fire.
But Xiao Chuhuang was different. She possessed a divine-level soul spirit and could clearly see how Shen Yunxi activated the strange fire and how she subtly neutralized her attacks.
Although Shen Yunxi had caused her to suffer twice in a row, her innate pride did not allow her to show weakness. Besides, this level of blow was not enough to make her afraid.
"I underestimated you!" Xiao Chuhuang said through gritted teeth, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes. "Hmph, I don't believe you can stay so arrogant forever!"
She snorted coldly, raised her right hand sharply, palm facing upward, as if to summon her soul.
A wicked smile curled at the corners of Shen Yunxi's lips, a sly glint in her eyes. She lightly touched the ground with her toes, her figure blurring as she swiftly approached Xiao Chuhuang.
Almost in the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Xiao Chuhuang, lightly lifting Xiao Chuhuang's chin with one hand, and said with interest: "Do you think I would give you the chance to summon your soul?"
Xiao Chuhuang's eyes widened suddenly, her pupils contracted sharply, and a look of terror spread across her face.
Before she could react, she felt a cold touch on her neck. Shen Yunxi's hand, which had been at her chin, had somehow transformed into a gleaming dagger, which was now firmly pressed against her throat.
