Epilogue 1: Exclusive Sideshow (2)
Zhao Huajun said solemnly: "The Immortal Emperor and the Demon Emperor will definitely come. Do you think the Demon Realm will still be on your side at this time..."
"You mean the person who’s in charge of sending out news?" Tian Zhen interrupted him, "I forgot to mention, but I specially asked Xiaocan to keep an eye on them, I'm afraid they have already been intercepted by him."
While speaking, there was another movement in the distance. A huge black shadow appeared on the horizon. At first glance, it looked like a young bud that had just broken through the soil. The bud grew rapidly, and after a while, a straight stem was formed. A few young leaves rolled out, they were pointy with small spikes as they stretched out and took shape!
"Magic lotus! It's really a magic lotus! The six realms' spiritual veins… of course!" Zhao Huajun closed his eyes slightly, his tone was cold, "Little Phoenix, don't force me."
Tian Zhen responded, "You forced me."
"If it was anywhere else, maybe this formation could have trapped me," Zhao Huajun raised his arms. His phoenix wings spread out with a dazzling golden light, "but you forgot, we found this place by following the trails. Under the soles of my feet flows the spirit vein of the gods."
Tian Zhen shuddered, realizing her error.
The king of the gods must be able to use the power of the god’s spiritual veins!
There was no time to think about countermeasures as the Phoenix King, the ruler of the Divine Winged Race with a hundred thousand years of cultivation, issued his strongest move. His divine power was splendid like fireworks, overwhelming the sky!
Tian Zhen did not show any fear as she pushed out her palms.
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred in her body!
The Phoenix God's neidan was restless, so she uncontrollably, yet gradually lost her power, as if it was being pulled away by something.
Tian Zhen quickly understood what was going on.
That's right, he wanted to take the opportunity to break out of the Tai Shang Mirror, so the Devil God needed to take back his divine power. She and Lu Binghe both miscalculated. Regretfully, even he wouldn’t have expected such a situation outside.
She couldn’t dodge in time and the beautiful flame collided, head onto her.
Who can bear the fire of Nirvana? Tian Zhen only felt severe pain all over her body, her internal organs felt like being burned: she couldn't bear it as she staggered and fell backwards, immediately opening her mouth to cough blood.
"You..." Zhao Huajun lowered his hand and looked at her, but finally swept his gaze towards the magic lotus.
Knowing that he still had to be stopped, Tian Zhen turned over and got up, instructing Devil Minister Mo Ye to stop the heavenly army. She then turned to walk towards the blue light.
On the polar sea’s surface, a giant iceberg suddenly appeared, with a black giant lotus growing on it. It towered into the clouds, the leaves of the lotus slowly unfolded, and finally displayed a bud.
Zhao Huajun raised his hands without hesitation, he wanted to slash the lotus stem!
At a critical juncture, a blue ball of light flew out of thin air to block it. When the ball of light was broken and the fire was extinguished, a black shadow rolled to the ground.
Zhao Huajun held back his anger. "Little Phoenix, you!"
"Try again." Tian Zhen quickly got up and wiped the blood from the corner of her lips.
While speaking, several petals of the magic lotus opened.
Zhao Huajun said coldly: "You are not a devil, so it is impossible to borrow the power of the magic lotus. Move aside."
After enduring another strong attack, Tian Zhen took a few steps back; she was having trouble standing firm.
Seeing that the lotus was about to fully bloom, Zhao Huajun finally closed his eyes. His golden phoenix wings opened and the fire of Nirvana reappeared, ready to destroy the magic lotus.
Without evading, the fiery flames were getting closer and closer, as if they were about to burn everything up, causing those who resisted to vanish into ashes.
With her remaining divine power, Tian Zhen created her last, weak barrier.
She wasn’t sure if she would regret it, but she just felt some pity. Tian Zhen stood there and was about to close her eyes—
Suddenly, several long and dazzling silver lights flashed from the sky above, looking like huge cracks in the sky. In an instant, the clouds dispersed and the sky’s light poured down. The sea of ice shined as if it were daytime, the magic lotus completely bloomed, and a considerable amount of black qi rushed into the lotus. It was all heading straight into the cracks in the sky!
The winds blew harshly, and there was a faint sound from afar, akin to a landslide.
The flame was extinguished, the icy sea became silent, and Zhao Huajun took back his fire.
Tian Zhen fell to the ground and panted hard, unsure whether she was sad or joyful.
After a long time, the surrounding light dimmed again, the sky returned to calm, and the starlight reappeared. The huge magic lotus seemed to have lost its vitality as it quickly withered and fell to the ground silently. It turned into dust, leaving only a crystal clear green lotus seed.
Zhao Huajun stood silently for a long time before he finally sighed. He leaned over, picked up the lotus seed from the ground, and walked slowly towards Tian Zhen.
Tian Zhen struggled to get up and staggered back: "I will remember Zhao Huajun's mercy."
Zhao Huajun had no comment on her being so guarded, so he placed the lotus seed back on the ground.
Their soldiers arrived in a hurry.
"Heaven's spirit veins are broken," Zhao Huajun turned around, his voice a little tired, "Depart."
Tian Zhen was helped to stand firm. She looked at his departing back, feeling some pity. All of her previous grudges disappeared— Whether for fear of retaliation, or to leave a retreat for future pleading, he really did show her mercy.
Out of the polar regions’ sea, on the way back, on lands afar were traces of battle everywhere. The top of a mountain was chipped off, the wood and stone rolled down, as this place had suffered a huge earthquake.
Witnessing the successful opening of the magic lotus with her own eyes but not knowing what the result was, Tian Zhen was anxious and uneasy. Together with Devil Minister Mo Ye, she led the devil soldiers back to the void heaven.
After eating the lotus seed, her damaged true form gradually recovered.
The closer she was to the Devil Realm, the stronger her heartbeat became. Tian Zhen was both afraid and looking forward to it. Devil Minister Mo Ye did not know the reason for her desperate efforts to maintain the magic lotus, so he couldn't help but lecture her.
"What's going on with the spirit veins?"
"There was no benefit at all when the magic lotus opened."
"You almost lost your life, don’t be so reckless."
……
While he was still lecturing her, Tian Zhen suddenly stopped and looked straight ahead.
Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, the Devil Minister Mo Ye stopped, followed her lead to look up, and suddenly became dumbfounded.
Between heaven and earth, a strong magic light reflected the stratus clouds into gleaming blue. There was a tall black shadow in the clouds, with a loose robe and wide sleeves, his hair accessories shone with dazzling golden light, and his whole body was imposing.
He had broken through the Tai Shang Mirror, the Murderous God is back in the six realms again!
"Phoenix, you've worked hard." His familiar nasal voice was still so strong and dignified. He stood high and remained aloof, standing there without taking the initiative to come closer to greet her.
Although they were only apart for a thousand days, it seemed like thousands of years had passed.
Tian Zhen's mouth twitched.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the Devil God was obviously dissatisfied: "Hmm?"
The face-loving Devil God naturally wouldn't take the initiative in front of so many subordinates. Tian Zhen still stood there on purpose, and even turned her face away to look at the scenery. Only quietly using the corner of her eyes to glance at him .
"His Highness! His Highness is back!" Devil Minister Mo Ye quickly returned to his senses. He was surprised, happy, and also scared as he yelled, his voice trembling.
All the devil soldiers followed and knelt down in respect.
The Devil God finally raised a hand: "Phoenix!"
Hearing the irresistible tone, Tian Zhen finally laughed and rushed over.
The long-lost embrace was so close, she couldn't wait to rush into it. Her heart was beating wildly in her chest. She was supposed to smile, but she wanted to cry; she was relieved and aggrieved, all kinds of feelings were mixed together.
The Devil God caught her with one hand.
His low eyebrows and his long and narrow eyes had not changed at all, and there was a hint of tenderness in his dark eyes.
"Phoenix, I longed."
This God had always been direct, Tian Zhen wanted to look a little shy, but the corners of her mouth were bent up involuntarily. She held the long strand of hair by his forehead: "Even after a few years, Your Highness is still so beautiful…"
The Devil God looked at her face and commented: "You’ve become ugly."
"Deceitful Highness."
"Is that so?"
"Your Highness has a pair of honest eyes, it betrays your true thoughts."
The Devil God lowered his head and said, "Are you so proud of seeing through my lie?"
"Of course," Tian Zhen raised her chin and smiled, but her eyes were a little red, "Who knew you could lie, I thought you really..."
The Devil God stroked her eyes: "It's my fault. I’ve made you sad."
This god often annoyed and face-slapped others to death, but then would say, "It's my fault."
Tian Zhen retorted angrily, "Your Highness, only apologize with sincerity!"
The Devil God laughed.
