Chapter 788 Roomie's Death And Rudra's Power  

( Roomie's POV )

Roomie tried to sneakily approach the phoenix and chain him using the altars chains , however the only problem was that the altars chains were so heavy that even with all of his strength he could not life a single one for even a centimetre.

This was shocking to Roomie as no known material to mankind was this hard or this heavy.

Little did Roomie know that these chains were made out of the hot metal within the continents core itself having density 100 times thicker than the thickest diamonds.

Super heavy and indestructible these chains were made to withstand the scorching heat of the phoenix without melting .

" A visitor ... Interesting".

An ancient voice startled Roomie as he turned to look towards the phoenix only to see that the sleeping beast was no longer sleeping but staring at him with flaming eyes and a smile.

Roomie started to sweat profousely, due to the heat it was not clear if the reaction of sweating so profousely was due to the temperature or the fear of the ancient beast.

" HIYA ". Roomie threw two smoke bombs to distract the phoenix as he started to flee from the temple to regroup and restrategize however after a full minute of running,it turned out that he was still standing at the same place that he had started as the phoenix looked on amused towards the invader.

" You want to imprison me and tame me , my my your ambitions are even more ludicrous than Lucifer himself , atleast the devil wants to kill me , but you ..... Turning me into a slave?

How Bold! "Roomie did not realise the true extent of danger that he was in until he felt his mana circuit burning as the king of illusions was trapped in such an illusion that he could not get out of.

The ancient phoenix said " I have set ablaze your mana circuit, since you wanted to turn me into a slave , it's only fair that I turn you into a cripple. Now burn for me ".

Roomie tried to mobilize his powers , However without his mana circuit the only power that he could mobilize was at the peak of tier 3 , as all tier 4 and 5 moves used mana as their base.

Roomie panicked and instantly fell to his knees and said " Please forgive me , o ancient one , i was Blinded by greed , please free me from this pain and donot burn my mana circuit, let me go free and i promise to never return to this place again ".

The ancient phoenix sighed and turned from its beast form to its human form.

Just like dragons who could transform into any shape at will , the other divine races could do it as well and so could the phoenix.action

He turned into a muscular and robust man with blazing red tattoos all over his body as he looked incredibly handsome with his red hair and amber red eyes.

The phoenix said " The reason why this temple is unknown to the demonkind after so many centuries is not because no tier 5 individual has ever walked into this place".

The phoenix paused and revealed a wicked smile at this instant and continued " It's because , none who entered , ever walked out ".

The phoenix lunged at Roomie and the king of illusions faced a horrifying death by being scorched to ashes.

Satisfied with the job done the phoenix said " These dumb humans , it's been 600 years since i invented this trick , their mana circuit just feels ablaze because the fire mana in this place is too thick while there is no other type of mana in the air at all which makes mobilization of any other energy impossible, yet nobody seems to realise this and start to get on their feet the moment their powers are taken away from them .

Pathetic ".After killing the man , the phoenix went back to its original form and back to its resting state as it entered deep sleep.

( After one day , Rudra's POV)

Rudra entered the temple looking for an assassin but instead his eyes fell on a sleeping phoenix and in that instant his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.

Rudra scanned the phoenix's power level using his eyes.

[ Divine Phoenix ] ( Tier 6 ) : A member of the ancient phoenix race , ?????? Is a notorious member of the phoenix race , he and his two brothers were known as the ?????? , Responsible for????????

??????????????????????

Rudra was stunned to see so much information about the divine phoenix to be redacted, however what he was more shocked to see was the fact that the divine pheonix was tier 6!!

It was a god ! A god! A godly existance!

Rudra already had a pet and had no intention to swap furball for anything , however Rudra wanted to recruit this phoenix to his cause , as if this divine warrior joined the army of death , they would become unstoppable.

However right as he took one more step towards the phoenix it opened its eyes and said " Your inspection is powerful to pry into my background eventhough you are a tier 5 demigod.

However I don't appreciate anyone impeding my privacy , now pay for your crimes human ! ".

Rudra felt his mana circuit starting to overheat as he felt a searing burning pain throughout his body. He tried to mobilize the water law to cool his body down however no matter how hard he tried the water won't obey his commands , it seemed as if he had lost his ability to wield mana.

Shocked Rudra looked at the phoenix with confused eyes , however that look changed to a look of determination in an instant as he decided that if the old thing wanted a fight , it was sure going to get one!
