Unable to refuse any longer, and with Longji excitedly eager to subdue demons, the phoenix could only nod in agreement.
On Deng Chanyu's side, she had achieved the Golden Dao Fruit and proven it. On her side, she has also undergone five rounds of reincarnation. Not only has her bloodline become closer to Yuan Feng, but she has also awakened many Phoenix clan mystic arts. Her strength and speed have reached an extremely high level. At this level, during the Dragon and Phoenix Primordial Catastrophe, she could serve as a senior general in the Phoenix clan internally.
With Long Ji in tow, they rode on clouds to head for the North Sea.
Thanks to the orientation specified by Heaven's Will, they quickly saw an alien beast that had already landed on the shore.
This creature is a hybrid of a lion and a dog, with a massive body and a solitary horn on its head.
The alien beast, upon landing, directly rushed to the people's ancestral hall, gobbling up incense and offerings with great mouthfuls. It then absorbed the people's fear emotions, looking content as if it was enjoying some delicacy.
As the incense and fear emotions were absorbed, the alien beast's body grew larger and larger, its steps heavy and producing a loud "thunderous" rumble with each footfall on the ground.
Many ordinary people hide indoors, but the alien beast viciously kicks in their doors, forcing them to flee wildly. It follows them at a leisurely pace, taking the opportunity to absorb even more fear emotions.
The phoenix and Long Ji observed from a distance for a while.
Heaven's Will is to capture and bring the alien beast back to the palace. It has also made it clear that this creature is unique in the world, even if it is killed now, within some time, it will regenerate in another place using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It will still be a troublesome matter when it comes back to life again. The previous treatment method of Daxu was to capture and imprison it, and now Heaven is also going to follow the same path.
The phoenix and Long Ji have recently developed enough mutual understanding. A single glance is enough for them to think of a response.
The phoenix landed before the alien beast a step ahead.
Noticing that there was no fear in her eyes, the alien beast's lion-like head turned around and looked at her intently for a few seconds. The phoenix maintained her human form, looking tiny and fragile in front of this giant creature that was four or five meters high.
"Roar Roar Roar!" The alien beast could not be compared to Dang Kang and Zou Wu at all. It couldn't speak and carried an aura of savage madness.
Its roar was soul-stirring; only because the phoenix's Dao heart was firm would it not have affected her.
"It seems to be an animal that cannot be communicated with. It's just a wild beast?" The phoenix raised her index and middle fingers, pointing them forward, and a torrent of blazing hot flames shot out from between her fingers, striking the alien beast's head directly.
The same was the sun true fire, and when the phoenix uses it, it is even stronger than when Deng Chanyu uses it.
The flames rotated and spread out, the scorching flames completely surrounding the alien beast. A rapid mist clouded over the beast, and when it reappeared, it was already ten zhang (a unit of length) away.
The alien beast roared angrily, and this time the roar contained new information. Suddenly, a heavy rain poured down from the sky, not only putting out the flames but also turning the rainwater as solid as ice, cooling down abruptly. It pressed down on the phoenix's phoenix feathers on its body from all directions.
"A bit of ability, but that's all." The phoenix felt a wave of fear thoughts trying to force their way into her soul. This creature still wanted to scare her, and it seemed that as long as she developed fear emotions, even just a thought, it would gain an absolute upper hand in this battle of wills.
Long Ji muttered something beside her, forcibly seizing control of the stormy aura near the alien beast. She also threw out the Four Seas Bottle, causing more clouds and rain to gather together. Finally, she directly invoked thunder from the heavens.
"Pop! Pop! Pop!" Seven bolts of thunder struck the alien beast's body.
This alien beast, who had just broken the seal, roared towards the sky with anger. The roar clearly had something different.
"Scared of thunder?"
The phoenix uses the Dao of Space, instantly moving to the back of the alien beast.

Her fingers lightly tapped the back of the alien beast's head, infusing it with the same emotion.
Art is an explosion!
The explosion of a missile, the explosion of a nuclear bomb, the explosion of a planet, the explosion of a star — throw all these scenes into the mix, including explosive scenes from movies.
The alien beast could not understand these things. Compared to just roaring, it could only intimidate through its size. It experienced something it had not tasted in a long time, fear, and it was also capable of being afraid.
The attack-defend posture was reversed. At this moment, the phoenix appeared as a giant towering over the alien beast, while its body size decreased dramatically, finally becoming as small as a domestic cat.
Long Ji threw out the Mists and Essences of the Universe Net, covering the powerless alien beast, and together with the phoenix, returned to the heavenly palace to deliver their report.
The Julei Shen took the alien beast to be imprisoned, and the phoenix mentioned the alien beast's fear of loud noises and fire.
Heaven was very satisfied and said that he would issue an edict, so that all beings in the three realms would know how to deal with this alien beast.
He said, "General Zhen Wu has been consecrated for his contribution in eradicating demons. How about you give this alien beast a name?"
The phoenix privately pursed her lips, daring to be even more frugal? This time no promotion, just give the naming right to a spirit monster?
The phoenix has a great deal of disdain for Long Ji's father, but as the saying goes, one should respect the Buddha even if one does not respect the monk. It's not appropriate for her to say anything.
After thinking for a moment, she wondered if this alien beast was the same as the one in her memory. She was somewhat hesitant, but then said, "How about calling it 'Nian'? It can be called the 'Year Beast'."
"Good, let's call it the Year Beast!"
Heaven agreed readily and wrote the name "Nian" on his edict. No matter whether this alien beast had its own name, unless it became a student of a sage and seized its naming right back from Heaven, it would henceforth be called the Year Beast.
Nu Wa ordered Deng Chanyu to fully seal Kang Hu back then, but now she only sealed half of him. She knew that this was not enough to complete the task, so she had to figure out a way to seal the remaining half as well.
To achieve this goal, Deng Chanyu sent Nezha and Xiaolingluan back to the mountain. She and Da Ji returned to the underworld again. They did not go to find the main forces of the Exploration and Concealment schools, but planned to enter through the nine hell realms.
Not knowing how much power the immortals from the Exploration and Concealment schools could draw away from the great array, Deng Chanyu secretly sighed. Now, not entering the array was no longer an option.
Deng Chanyu had a hope. It would be best if Guang Chengzi and Yun Zhongzi clashed, allowing her to snatch the half body of Kang Hu behind them, and then plunder Yun Zhongzi's treasure house or Dan Fang.
To achieve this goal, a preliminary condition is confidentiality.
Regretfully, they had just entered the array not long ago and encountered Yán Zhōngxiān, the Celestial Flame Immortal, right in front of them.
Ropuang rode an Akyan Horse, similar in shape to Bienzi, with three heads and six arms, emanating a murderous aura. Simply by looking at its appearance, it was like some kind of demon god.
At this moment, this Celestial Flame Immortal was controlling many fire crows in the Wan'ao Cauldron, attempting to capture the panic-stricken nine-tailed fox spirit.
Seeing Deng Chanyu, the nine-tailed fox spirit, whose soul remained, was as if seeing a relative. It was almost desperate to kneel down in front of her right there and then.
"Immortal! Please, considering that the fox tribe has always been respectful to the Empress and reverent towards the immortals, save me!"
