Chapter 454: Chapter 368: Rebirth Through Nirvana
Not only that, with a fluctuation of space, a portion of the Fire Phoenixes suddenly disappeared, directly using the array to traverse space and teleport to other areas of the relics, pursuing adventurers who had already left some distance.
Yan Cang had already fled some distance, his face pale. He had taken a sword strike from Qingzi and was also seriously injured.
"Emperor’s Son, are you alright?"
The accompanying guard worriedly said, "Emperor’s Son, you should not have coveted that elixir. With your status, there will surely be a chance to obtain an Emperor Pill in the future."
"The ones rewarded by the clan don’t taste as good as the ones you get yourself!"
Yan Cang snorted coldly, when suddenly, a Fire Phoenix appeared out of thin air, attacking them.
"Not good!"
He sensed it and knew that his injured self was no match for this Fire Phoenix.
"Run!"
He wanted to escape, but would the Fire Phoenix let him?
A fireball flew over, forcing them to stop. Then, a ring of fire fell like a shooting star, tightly wrapping around Yan Cang’s body, burning him to ashes.
In another place, a burst of fire transformed into Yan Cang’s body, his face even paler: "Damn it, is the Phoenix here not dead yet?"
"Emperor’s Son, the array here is sealed. Quickly use the Space-Breaking Talisman."
The accompanying guard was knocked flying by a fireball and reminded him, looking disheveled.
The guard struggled to stand up, knowing he was no match for the Fire Phoenix, but was willing to fight to the death to protect the Emperor’s Son.
He charged towards the Fire Phoenix with others, trying to entangle it to buy time for Yan Cang.
However, with just a gentle wave, the Fire Phoenix sent a wave of fire that knocked them back again, burning those with lower cultivation on the spot.
Not only them, but the other adventurers trying to flee were also pursued by the Fire Phoenix, falling into a moment of despair.
On a Phoenix Tree, Shen Wang noticed that the Fire Phoenix also locked onto them and was flying over through a spatial rift.
"Not good, it’s noticed us!"
Shen Wang frowned, rapidly forming seals as the Array Power fluctuated.
The Fire Phoenix paused slightly, seemingly restricted by some kind of power, unable to approach Shen Wang and his companions, only circling nearby.
"Huh, why is the array out of control?"
Inside a palace, a skeletal Phoenix expressed its surprise.
Carrying its Alchemy Furnace, it entered the spatial rift, saw Shen Wang and another, and laughed in surprise, "Unexpected, two Divinity Transformations actually managed to get in here."
Its voice was female, not old, but carried a sense of regal coldness.
Shi Kongxuan shivered in fear; this Phoenix had eradicated even a Great Saint’s Divinity. Without even the strength of a Demon Saint, wouldn’t they be obliterated instantly?
"Senior, we mean you no harm."
Shen Wang responded with determination, meanwhile the surrounding space contorted, completely isolating them from the opponent.
The skeleton sensed something, its eyes serious: "A mere Divinity Transformation can almost control all the arrays I set up back then, how is this possible!"
Shen Wang was surprised; it was his first time hearing someone in the Divinity Transformation Realm speak of this world, and wondered if this being was not from this realm at all?
He confirmed the opponent couldn’t deal with him for the time being and said, "I have some accomplishments in array formations."
"Some? Being able to control the arrays here, your level is no lower than mine; what is your background?"
The skeleton was slightly incredulous.
"Senior, it’s best if you don’t concern yourself with me. The situation in this relic can’t be concealed for long. Senior should hasten the Phoenix rebirth to avoid any mishaps and not waste time on us."
Shen Wang advised.
"Hmph, today everyone here must die!"
The skeleton was murderously intense, unwilling to be disturbed during its own rebirth and unable to allow anyone to control the arrays it had set.
"Among those who came here today there are notable figures, such as the Emperor’s Son from the Flame Race, and a Great Saint from the Yaksha Race; whether they die here or escape, this place will attract attention from the powerful, making it difficult for a smooth rebirth."
Shen Wang hinted thoughtfully.
The flames on the skeleton flickered, its expression changing; this guy was right, it didn’t dare delay currently.
It attempted to regain control of the arrays but realized that unless it killed Shen Wang, or restored its own strength, it wouldn’t reclaim them anytime soon.
This situation made it furious: "You’d better behave, or I will make you suffer unbearable pain."
With that said, it flew towards the small palace on the Phoenix Tree, more precisely, towards a Phoenix Egg.
Seeing the terrifying presence leave like that, Shi Kongxuan was sweating all over, relieved to say, "Will it really not kill us?"
"The array is basically controlled by me, even though it can try to regain it, as long as I’m not dead, it will take a long time to crack my methods."
Shen Wang confidently stated, "What it’s lacking now is time; it doesn’t dare to drag this out with us."
"That’s good, otherwise we would be destroyed by just one of its flames."
Shi Kongxuan exhaled, watching the skeleton enter the palace, and said, "Will it be reborn completely soon?"
"Not so fast."
Shen Wang shook his head, pondering as he looked at the small palace: "It seems that egg is not its offspring, but its own form for rebirth."
"You’re saying that egg is its true form?"
Shi Kongxuan was surprised: "It seems so, it should have been transformed by its rebirth back then, and the one on the skeleton is probably a strand of its Divine Split."
Shen Wang nodded: "That must be the case, all its arrangements were for today’s rebirth, to advance further."
"Then let’s escape quickly. If it rebirths, we won’t stand a chance."
Shi Kongxuan really did not want to stay there any longer.
Shen Wang shook his head: "It’s dangerous to go out as well. I have a new plan. When I basically controlled the comprehensive arrays here just now, I discovered another hidden teleportation array. When the time comes, we can teleport away directly without being targeted by those outside."
"Teleportation array?"
Shi Kongxuan was extremely joyful: "Then activate it quickly; leaving early is safe."
"No, the teleportation array is deep inside, and it can currently influence the array to some extent. We must wait for it to focus on its rebirth, with no time to worry about us before we go."
"Makes sense, I’ll listen to you. Now we have to rely on you."
Shi Kongxuan stopped speaking, watching the small palace on the Phoenix Tree trunk nervously.
Shen Wang formed seals, projecting the internal scene, the skeleton sensed it and coldly said, "Get out!"
"I’m just curious about senior’s rebirth secret, learning a bit; absolutely won’t act recklessly."
Shen Wang said, knowing he must keep an eye on the situation to ensure a flawless escape.
The skeletal Phoenix wished it could kill the boy immediately, but a firelight returned, informing her that someone had escaped using a Space-Breaking Talisman.
"So quickly someone escaped, the situation here will be exposed soon, must start now."
It glanced outside, then the skeleton suddenly decomposed, forming a cage enveloping the Phoenix Egg, earth fire covering the skeleton, isolating inside and out.
Shen Wang didn’t mind, needing only to know the other’s movements.
Soon, within the skeleton erupted a colorful brilliance, accompanied by a tender phoenix cry, a new force was born, then climbing rapidly.
Shen Wang knew, the Phoenix was starting its rebirth anew.
