The people of Phoenix City remained unperturbed throughout this period.
Their trust in the Celestial Phoenix had been established for generations. Not even a full-blown battle between Sages could shake it.
However, today would be the day that their hearts really shook with fear.
Ember exited the Phoenix's nest in her new form.
She was a red-scaled Dragon with twisted white horns stretching to the back of her head. Her ash-colored wings cast such large shadows that the peasants would mistake it for a cloudy day.
Her snake-like body floated so naturally in the sky above the city as if it was swimming in water.
If a look at her majestic visage wasn't enough to deter a thousand hearts, the aura that she exuded would finish the job.
Fire elementals of the Spiritual Essence were so attuned to Ember's presence that sparks of blue fire appeared before dissipating in sync with her breathing.
