Suddenly, around Lilian's body, two massive wings made of Phoenix Flames started to form. Right after that, the whole body of a Phoenix appeared. She naturally stood on top of it, like she was a Flaming Empress, ready to burn everything to ashes.

The heat and pressure exuding out of her, thoroughly neutralized the smothering pressure coming from that dark star. Actually, those abilities were both inheritances from ancient deities and they were practically on the same plane level, so it was only a natural thing, that the both of them would be similarly strong.

However, until up that moment, the dark star seemed to be a skill that was able to bring the source of its power together with it, while Lilian's skill, still seemed to be a bit lackluster near that massive star shining in black.

The sky tremble and the earth shook. A deafening rumble echoed and a meteor of pure darkness descended down to the earth. It brought despair and destroyed any hopes that the light of day would ever return to those valleys. Even from far away, in some remote cities at the StormWind Valley, people were praying for their gods while they observed that gargantuan size rock coming down to the earth.

If it were to struck the ground, another abyss would form in the mainland, swallowing every single lifeform in that area.

But while it was still high up in the atmosphere, the aura around Lilian's body had a sudden increase in quality and her flames intensified to a whole new level.

"Burning Rupture!"

Boom!

Lilian's body abruptly ascended while riding a giant phoenix. Her bloodline was seething and like a huge flaming arrow, she went up to meet that dark star.

Screech!

A giant Phoenix cut through the skies, moving towards an incomparably huge meteorite made of darkness. Looking from afar, near that gargantuan size black star, the Phoenix seemed more like a futile attempt of a weaker cultivator, trying to resist what couldn't be resisted.

But only a real Mana Sovereign cultivator, would be able to feel how great and profound was the power accumulated inside that Phoenix.

As Lilian was going up, her bloodline kept burning inside of her veins, until her whole body was completely on fire as well. Phoenix Flames were unable to cause her any harm and they only served to increase her strength, making it reach another standard.

When she finally arrived before that Dark Star, her body, together with that Phoenix of flames, penetrated inside that black surface and vanished inside.

All the light and heat brough by her incomparably hot flames, disappeared, only leaving a completely dark and silent environment behind.

First Shadow finally left from her trance, immediately opening up a mocking smile.

"Fool... Trying to go against the might of a star..."

Unfortunately for First Shadow, she wasn't even able to finish her phrase, before she saw a flash of light shining right in the middle of that dark star.

At that moment, Lilian had reached the core of her technique, arriving at the place that she wanted to get from the very beginning.

Just as she arrived there, the Phoenix beast made of flames, opened its wings and a fiery radiance quickly started to spread to every part of that darkness, illuminating the center of that dark star with her Phoenix Flames.

"These are the flames of a new dawn and I hope you like them." Just Lilian she said those words, the entire dark star began to burn, as if it was collapsing from the inside.

Actually, that was really what was happening. Lilian had infused her Phoenix Flames at the core of First Shadow's technique, burning it from the inside.

However, even though the star was being taken by her fire, the darkness stored inside of it, was like a dauntless and unstoppable warhorse, charging head on against Lilian's cleansing flames, blocking and consuming them.

When Lilian realized she was suffering all that resistance, she suddenly forced more of her Phoenix blood to burn, even burning a bit of her own blood essence together with it.

"AAAAAA! Burn!"

Thump!

First Shadow felt her heart skipping a beat and fresh blood escaped from the corner of her lips. At that exact moment, Lilian's flames incinerated the core of her Dark Star, making the rest of it, quickly follow the same destiny.

That originally dark meteorite, quickly changed colors and attribute, going from darkness to fire. Instead of a dark star, it was now resembling a burning sun that would forever be the giver of light.

When it finished the transformation, there wasn't a single place in the whole mainland, where people weren't able to witness its bright light. Of course, that from a relatively far away location, the observers were only able to see a different flash of light high up in the sky, but it was still a light that was able to reach even the most distant corners of the mainland.

Seth even completely stopped to look towards that incomparably powerful sun. He realized that if he were to be the one fighting against a technique like that, he wouldn't be able to leave out of that situation alive if he didn't have the Fragmented Law of Fire powering his body up. That law gave him a mystical ability of being immune to any types of fire.

But Seth wasn't the only one that had stopped to look at the skies, Yuyin, Serene, Elyra, Arwen and even Velgor and his remaining slaves had stopped to look at the skies. Most of them trembled while feeling the powerful Mana fluctuations behind that ability. They were lucky to be far away from the center of that battlefield and could only imagine how strong was the pressure being applied at the unlucky enemy fighting against that burning star.

At the center of that burning sun, Lilian visualized First Shadow's stupefied figure and looked at her with resolution. She had already redirected the pressure from the dark star towards her body, making her enemy feel how smothering, was the feeling brought by her own skill.

"You'll pay for what you and your friends have done to my father and for the destruction you've brought to my home! Phoenix Descent!!!"

SCREECH!

The mythical flaming bird known as Phoenix, swiftly flapped its wings and started to descend towards First Shadow. However, it not only was carrying Lilian's body on its back, but it was forcefully pulling that burning sun downwards.

When First Shadow saw that the core of her Dark Star had been destroyed by Lilian's powers, she almost wasn't able to believe it, but now, after suffering a bone crushing pressure from her own stolen technique, she was only able to believe that she was living a real-life nightmare. Nothing else was able to explain to her what was actually happening, other than the idea that she was inside a nightmare, an illusion created by her own mischievous mind.

"No... This is impossible! This isn't real..."

The Phoenix suddenly accelerated, diving towards First Shadow, creating an apocalyptic scene right in front of her eyes. She couldn't even use her dark teleportation technique, since her energy veins were suffering from a severe suppression that rendered them useless.

When the burning star finally reached her, everything went blank.

BOOOM!

The earth shook and every single individual was forced to use their Mana to protect their bodies from the shockwave that went past them. A fire mushroom formed at that area, creating a scene of terror that sent chills running down the spine of the still living members of the Twelve Shadows.

Only after a dozen of minutes passed by, that things were slowly coming back to normal.

At least, the flaming energy was starting to dissipate and the natural order of things began to get back to the starting point.

But at that moment, the landscape of that valley had already thoroughly changed.

Seth thought of going back to see the outcome of Lilian's battle, but his Soul Sense finally caught something. His body vanished, appearing some kilometers away, where he was able to see six different silhouettes. He was approaching the area he had met Velgor, so it was only natural that he would meet the other six members of the Twelve Shadows.

The six of them were still shocked after witnessing the fairy tale scene that had just happened, when suddenly, Seth's energy signature entered they field of perception. They were forced to leave out that state of reverie, to focus on that new enemy.

Right in front of Seth, Twelfth, Eleventh, Ninth, Eighth, Sixth and Fourth Shadows were all present. The six of them were moving together, like a strong tide of powerful practitioners, going towards the same destination and focused on the same objective.

The weakest among them, Twelfth Shadow, was a Mana Control Realm cultivator, while the strongest one, Fourth Shadow, was already a Profound Mana middle-stage Realm practitioner, the same level that Seth currently was in.. The next battle would be six against one, but only one of them was the real predator.
