Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 97: A Dark Horse

"Who is this person?"

"Is he going to attack the island?"

"This is crazy. Does he know who is guarding the island? He's going to provoke Adon."

"But this fellow's strength isn't weak either."

"Great, we finally get to see a high level battle. I just want to know if this guy can fight against Adon."

"Impossible. Adon's cultivation is still one level higher. But fortunately he's not here right now. This man might still be able to fight the two people on the island."

Many conversational voices were heard.

But Alu who was flying over the island did not care about the conversation of the people below.

After he released nearly fifty fireballs, he immediately sent them towards the island that was now beneath him.

Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...

As those enormous fireballs descended towards the island, the space they passed through let out many loud rumblings. It seemed as if the space they were passing through was about to collapse.

Even though the fireballs he released this time were not the fireballs that came from the Heaven Destroying Fireball technique, their strength was still very strong.

With nearly fifty fireballs, their scale of explosion would definitely be greater than the scale of the explosion of the Heaven Destroying Fireball technique.

With them, Alu could at least estimate how strong the protective formations covering the island were.

The expressions of the people who saw the fireballs that Alu released immediately turned pale.

With the power of those fireballs, only one could easily detonate each of their bodies.

As the fireballs got closer to the spirit formation covering the island, they began to pulsate like volcanic lava about to erupt.

When one of the fireballs came into contact with the spirit formation, it exploded instantly. And that first explosion caused the other fireballs that were following behind to explode too.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...

In an instant, countless explosive sounds resounded accompanied by deafening rumblings.

The people who heard the sound of explosions and rumblings felt as if their ears were about to explode.

Of course, what made people tremble even more with fear was the explosion of black flames that instantly drowned out the sizeable island.

Whooss....

Before they could even get ready, an extremely powerful shockwave had already reached them and sent most of them flying away. Many of them vomited a mouthful of blood.

"Shit... This is too strong." People cursed while running.

In fact, before the fireballs exploded, they had already kept quite a distance. But unfortunately their estimation was completely wrong.

The shockwave from the explosion not only still reached them, it was also strong enough to injure them.

The only person who was not affected in that place was only Alu who was currently flying over the island.

The shockwave that could easily throw a mountain couldn't make it move an inch. Even his black robe seemed unfazed.

"How insolent. Who would dare to unleash an attack on this place? Do you want to die." Angry shouts suddenly echoed from within the island.

And the shout itself made the space tremble so that the power of the screaming person could be imagined.

"Who, who is it? This father wants to kill him."

"Doesn't that person know that this island is protected by young master Adon."

"That person's fate is over. Provoking young master Adon, there is no place left for that person in the region of a thousand islands."

"I want to see that man die."

"Even if young master Adon isn't around, Alton and Callie can still kill that guy."

After the first shout, there were even more shouts that echoed from within the island.

Most of the people entering the island were so immersed in cultivation that they didn't know what was happening outside.

However, the sudden explosion caused them all to wake up simultaneously.

Being shocked while cultivating made some people vomit blood due to the backlash. They were naturally very angry.

Bang... Bang...

Right after those screams, two mighty auras suddenly erupted from within the island.

And the two auras immediately flew upwards towards the explosion.

From inside the island, they can come out of anywhere.

Sensing those two auras, Alu just stared at the island with cold eyes.

His gaze was currently fixed on the spirit formation above the island.

Even though there were flames covering it, Alu could still see the state of the formation very clearly.

"Very strong." Alu said to himself as he looked at the formation.

To Alu's surprise, the formation was actually only made to vibrate upon receiving the countless explosions. It's not broken in the slightest.

Alu may not have used all of his strength, but Alu knew that even if he attacked with a stronger force, it was far from enough to break the formation.

Without breaking the formation, Alu didn't dare to enter the island. After all, he didn't know if there was anything more dangerous inside the formation.

"Maybe I need to rely on my spirit power later." Alu said to himself.

"But before, I need to take care of these two people first."

Alu then looked at the two auras that had arrived in the flames of the aftermath of the explosion.

Right after the two auras arrived within the flames, they immediately released a wave of energy that looked like a tsunami.

Whooss...

Under the thrust of the energy waves they released, the flames that covered the entire island were instantly swept away in just the blink of an eye.

The figures of a young man and woman with an aura of nobility were then revealed in that place.

They are Alton and Callie.

Alton is a follower of Adon and he also cultivates at the Spiritual Academy. His strength was said to be no weaker than the strongest genius who was ranked in the top ten.

As for Callie, she was one of the strongest young women in the region of a thousand islands.

She came from one of the strongest clans. They are said to have several peak Nirvana stage experts protecting them.

In order for her to be ranked ninth among the strongest geniuses, her strength was unquestionable. Her strength was definitely above Jather's.

The two of them stared coldly at Alu after they appeared, and their expressions also looked very ugly. They both looked very angry towards Alu.

When people saw them, people could immediately tell why they looked so angry.

In fact, even though the two people's auras seemed extremely powerful, their auras actually seemed to be in chaos.

Seeing their auras, people could tell immediately that they were close to making a breakthrough in cultivation.

They would probably enter the third layer of the Life and Death stage if they were given a few more hours. However, due to the disturbance that Alu created, they were forced to stop in the middle of their cultivation, which caused their auras to become chaotic.

Even though it didn't affect their cultivation, they would still have to prepare from the start if they were to try to break through one more time.

"Dare to bother us, say your name." Alton spoke in a cold tone.

On Alton's side, Callie couldn't help but blink a few times when she saw Alu's face. However, recalling the loss she had suffered due to her disrupted cultivation, her expression quickly turned cold again.

In fact, she was not a woman with a cold attitude. But now she was really very angry.

She also spoke in a cold tone.

"Boy, even if you have a nice face, this lady still won't let you go."

While they were staring at Alu with cold eyes, Alu was looking back at them with an indifferent expression. He seemed indifferent to their presence.

After they finished speaking, Alu smiled faintly before answering Alton's words.

"Alu."

Alu replied in a relaxed tone.

And when people heard the name Alu, they all immediately took a breath of cold air.

Of course, as long as someone was on the holy path, it was impossible for them not to recognize Alu remembering the number of times his name appeared on the holy path tablet.

"Alu, so he is the dark horse that recently appeared."

"No wonder he looks so confident."

"But even if they are very strong, Alton and Callie are not weak either. I doubt he can fight them both at once."

People started talking once again after they heard Alu's words.

"That's right. It's hard for those without a background to fight against people from the Spiritual Academy. Even if they can match the cultivation of people from the Spiritual Academy, in terms of combat techniques, they still lack a few points."

"Not necessarily." Someone answered. "A dark horse always gives unexpected surprises. We still don't know the true strength of this man. Have you forgotten about Elizabeth?"

When the people heard Elizabeth's name, they all fell silent.

Alu is not the only dark horse on the holy path. There is still someone with the name Elizabeth. And the last one has done what most people would consider impossible.

With lesser cultivation, she had killed a genius who was ranked third among all the strongest young geniuses of a thousand islands region.

If Alu also has such power?

"Impossible." The others answered.

"I can't believe there are more dark horses like that."

"Luck only falls on one person. There can't be more than that."

"How about we make a bet, do you dare?"

"... *

"I do not believe that."
