Chapter 1625: Feng Yao’s Story
Zhang Fei [4] transformed into his half-fox form.
Zhang Fei [5] transformed into his half calamity demon dragon form.
Zhang Fei [4]’s transformation didn’t shock Ancient Leiyu Tianlu and the people of the Xuanyuan Clan, but Zhang Fei [5]’s transformation greatly shocked them.
"What the hell? You... you are the Calamity Demon Dragon?" Ancient Leiyu Tianlu stuttered in shock.
The expressions of Xuanyuan Changyi and the others became serious after they recognized Zhang Fei [5]’s half calamity demon dragon form. They were natives of the Ancient Realm, and they had long heard of the Calamity Demon Dragon and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, which were born from Yin and Yang.
Zhang Fei [5] pointed the demon extermination sword at them. "You are right, I am indeed the current Calamity Demon Dragon. My strength may not be as high as yours, but I will not give up easily, and I will not lose if I have to fight all of you."
"If both of us aren’t enough to fight you, we’ll summon another one." Zhang Fei [4] opened the portal to the training space, and Feltia [2] came out from inside already in his lust demon form, with his strength equal to the other two clones. "I’m determined to find a way to the Ancient Realm, so I’ll do whatever it takes, including fighting all of you."
Xuanyuan Changyi and the others frowned upon hearing that, but none of them moved to attack Zhang Fei’s three clones, waiting for Ancient Leiyu Tianlu’s decision.
*Swoosh*
They were shocked when crimson flames came out of Zhang Fei [4]’s body and transformed into Feng Yao. She didn’t pay any attention to them and stared at Zhang Fei’s three clones. "I know you’re angry after learning the truth, but you’ll die if you go to the Ancient Realm now."
"Are you afraid there won’t be anyone else to take advantage of?" Zhang Fei [4] coldly asked. "I trusted you, but you repaid my trust in you with deception, and you only thought of using me for your own personal ambitions. Should I call you Feng Yao, Huo Yanling, or Shen Yuanzhi? Or should I call you the embodiment of the core of this universe?"
Zhang Fei [4]’s questions shocked Ancient Leiyu Tianlu and people from the Xuanyuan Clan. ’What did he just say? Did he call this woman the embodiment of the core of this universe?’
Feng Yao sighed. "I don’t know what that mysterious man said to you, but I never thought of taking advantage of you. I—"
"Is that so?" Zhang Fei [4] squinted his eyes. "If you don’t want to take advantage of me, then what is your real goal in manifesting and reincarnating over and over again?"
Feng Yao waved her hands, and countless black chains appeared around her, shocking all of them. "Just like you, I have always dreamed of freedom and living a life without restraints, but these chains bind me to this universe. I have tried to break them too many times, but I have never succeeded. Every time I break them, they will reappear and bind me again, just like now."
Zhang Fei [4] and the others looked at those chains with serious expressions, but they could hardly believe Feng Yao’s words. She sighed and destroyed those chains, causing her to spurt quite a lot of blood from her mouth.
The chains disappeared, but they reappeared a moment later and bound Feng Yao’s entire body again, and the chains seemed to bind her even tighter than before. "See? I will never be able to be a free living being as long as these chains bind me, but I cannot break them with my strength. I reincarnated over and over again in search of the right person to free me from these chains, and I roamed the entire universe searching for that person for billions of years."
Zhang Fei [4] and the other clones looked at Feng Yao and those black chains with expressions full of seriousness, but they did not say anything to her.
"One day, Hu Tianlang came to see me and told me about his vision. One day in the future, the ten-tailed fox will return to this universe once again. He is more than a heavenly fox; he is also a human and a demon. He is the one who will bring peace to all races. At that time, the reincarnations of the ancestors of all races will join him and fight by his side." Zhang Fei [4] had already heard about it many times, so he was no longer surprised by it, but those words shocked the others. "Hu Tianlang told me that the person would appear in the Sky Jade Realm, so I went there and founded the Blazing Phoenix Sect to wait for his appearance. I found out your identity when Aqua met me in the central region, and she told me about you, so I’ve been following you ever since."
Zhang Fei [4] and the other clones stared at Feng Yao, but their expressions clearly showed that they did not believe her.
Feng Yao waved her hand again, causing Ancient Leiyu Tianlu and the people of the Xuanyuan Clan to be even more shocked because those black chains also appeared around them and bound them. Then, she waved her hand towards Zhang Fei [4] and the other clones, but no black chains appeared around them. "Normally, those chains would bind everyone to this universe, but they can no longer bind you, making you the freest living being in this universe."
"Why?"
"Shouldn’t you already know the answer?" Zhang Fei [4] raised an eyebrow. "Did you forget that you died once? That young girl brought you back to life, and those chains could no longer bind you from then on. However, the story will be different if your soul has entered the circle of reincarnation, and those chains will bind you again in your next life."
"Let me ask you one thing."
"Please ask."
"Have you ever been serious about your feelings for me?" Feng Yao couldn’t answer Zhang Fei [4]’s question because she herself didn’t have an answer for her future. "Heh! Since you can’t answer my question, I assume you were never serious about me, and you only wanted to use me to free yourself from those chains."
"It’s not that I don’t want to answer your question, Zhang Fei. My future is still vague, and I don’t know what will happen to me if I manage to break free from these chains." Zhang Fei [4] frowned further. "As you already know, I am different from all of you because I am the embodiment of the core of this universe. However, I don’t know what will happen to me if these chains disappear, and many questions arise within me. Will I still exist then? Will I die if that happens? What will happen to this universe if I die? Will this universe be destroyed with my death?"
"What did Hu Tianlang tell you about your future?"
"I can’t see her future because she is the embodiment of the core of this universe." Zhang Fei [4] and the others looked at Hu Tianlang’s wrath soul that suddenly appeared at the side. "My decision to sacrifice myself had nothing to do with her intentions, and I sacrificed myself purely for the peace of this universe. I may be strong as a primordial being, but I’m not that strong either, and there are many things I can’t do, including eliminating the other primordials. When I had a vision of you, I made the decision to sacrifice myself, and I hope you can bring peace to all living beings in this universe."
"Why did you come here?"
Hu Tianlang sighed. "I didn’t come here to interfere in your affairs, but I wanted to prevent you from making a reckless move by going to the Ancient Realm in the current situation. One of my souls has already encountered those shadowy creatures, and I can tell you that they are extremely powerful. If you go there with your current strength, they will immediately attack you. You do have many advantages, but you won’t be able to do anything against them. You surely know the risks if they take over your body, right? You may not care about other living beings, but you don’t want to see those closest to you suffer because of you, right? Besides, the two avatars of the two primordial beasts are also there, and they will notice your presence there."
"Yeah." Zhang Fei [4] nodded.
"See?" Hu Tianlang moved to his side and grabbed his shoulder. "For now, forget about those shadowy creatures and focus on your strength. Once your cultivation reaches the Celestial God Realm, I’ll take you to the Ancient Realm, and I’ll help you meet my two souls there."
"Are you sure that those shadowy creatures won’t be able to reach both domains of your two souls?"
"Ask her." Hu Tianlang pointed at Feng Yao.
Zhang Fei [4] looked at Feng Yao. "The Will of the Universe has created barriers in both domains, but I’m not sure that they are enough to stop those shadowy creatures. That’s why I plan to go to the Ancient Realm soon, and Huo Ling will help me to get rid of them from both domains."
"When are you going there?"
"After your real body returns from the Tower of Eternity."
Zhang Fei [4] and the other two clones returned to their human forms. "I’ve already obtained the key to open the gate."
"I know."
"However, I won’t leave the tower now, and I’ll complete all the challenges on the third floor first."
"I don’t think that’s a problem."
