With You You gone, only Feng Rong remained inside the Earth-Shaking Cauldron. However, the surrounding violent aura intensified, with black energy almost filling the entire cauldron and rushing towards him. Within the crimson flames, vibrant red lotuses bloomed, instantly dispelling the black energy. But as the violent aura intensified, the crimson flames gradually faded, as if losing their color, showing a tendency to become mere ordinary fire.
Not only that, even Feng Rong's figure began to fade along with the flames, as if she were about to disappear. Feng Rong looked down at her hands, which were becoming transparent, and slowly closed them. Her brows furrowed immediately. Sure enough... it's still not possible to draw out her natal fire with her current body?
He sighed. The black mist had completely obscured the sky, layers upon layers of violent energy sealing off the void he had cleaved open. He felt the energy supporting his body growing weaker and weaker, about to dissipate at any moment. The sounds of burning flames and raging violence filled his ears, yet he felt an eerie silence around him, and a strange emptiness settled in his heart.
It's so quiet... as if he's the only person left in the whole world.
It was a feeling he had been familiar with for thousands of years, but now he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He subconsciously looked up at the sky filled with black mist, and a figure involuntarily floated into his mind, as if someone who often wore a white robe with auspicious clouds similar to his disciple was running towards him.
It was as if her voice was echoing in my ears.
"Feng Rong!"
wrong!
Σ(°△°|||)︴
His eyes widened in shock. This wasn't a hallucination; the figure was real, truly falling towards him!
Even because he was clumsy at flying on his sword, he landed unsteadily and instinctively grabbed him. The familiar warmth seeped through his palm and warmed his heart. It was as if a warm breeze had swept through, instantly dispelling all the shadows in his heart.
"I'm back. Are you alright?" Youyou looked up at the person in front of her.
Feng Rong suddenly felt a warm current surge through her heart, making her eyes sting a little. Then she realized what had happened, looked at the person in front of her in shock, and a strange anger welled up inside her. "You... what are you doing back here?"
"I've come to pick you up!" You You blurted out, taking it for granted. "We have to save Lin Feng and the others, but we can't leave you here alone!"
"Are you stupid?!" Feng Rong was furious, glaring at the person in front of her, her whole body bulging like a balloon, it was hard to tell whether it was from anxiety or anger. "You've already left, why did you come back? Do you want to die?"
He even... he even...
"Then I have to come too! We have to get out, we all have to get out, not one of us can be missing!" With that, she grabbed his hand and took the sword from his hand with her other hand. As she conjured her spirit sword, she flew up and instructed, "We have to rush out. I'm not very good at flying, so hold on tight."
Before Feng Rong could even respond, she was pulled onto the sword, and the two of them shot into the sky like arrows. Just as they were about to collide with the black mist, You You tightened her grip. Lin Feng and the others were already gone, so she didn't need to worry about anything. She activated her skill, Sword God Without Heaven, and shouted out loud.
"With no man in my heart, I naturally become a god when I draw my sword!"
In an instant, a sky full of sword light appeared, shooting straight into the sky with overwhelming force. The massive sword energy merged into a large expanse of white light, instantly shattering the violent black energy in front of them into dust, revealing the golden phantom of a giant cauldron behind it. It looked as if the sword light was about to cleave towards the cauldron wall.
when!
With a loud crash, the sword energy struck the giant cauldron, and the gathered sword light immediately shattered, then turned into thousands of tiny sword energies, and then—bounced back!
Σ(°□°|||)︴
Holy crap!
No, this cauldron... doesn't produce anti-armor!
Youyou was shocked. Her usually invincible skill had failed for the first time, suffering a crushing defeat. Not only did she fail to break the cauldron, but the sword energy she unleashed did not disappear. Instead, it shattered into thousands of sword energies, which began to run wildly and attack indiscriminately within the cauldron. Not only were the black energies pulverized, but some of them even flew towards them.
She was startled and didn't know how to control the sword energy. In addition, she was not skilled at sword control, so she suddenly stumbled and was about to fall down with her sword.
"Sigh, I really owe you..." Her waist suddenly tightened, and a sigh sounded in her ear. Feng Rong caught her as she was about to fall, took control of the flying sword under her feet, and looked down at her directly, saying, "You can have no man in your heart, but you must have me!"
"Huh?" She was taken aback.
Feng Rong chuckled softly, giving her a look full of lingering affection and reluctance. Before You You could see clearly, he suddenly burst into flames, the dazzling red flames surrounding the two of them. The surrounding sword energy and black energy were directly forced back. Despite the intense fire, You You surprisingly felt no burning sensation at all.
The next moment, a cry pierced the sky, and the person before her suddenly transformed into a giant fire phoenix, carrying her straight upwards. Large swaths of red lotuses spread out beside them amidst the crimson flames. Just as they were about to crash into the cauldron wall again, another phoenix cry rang out, and the space above instantly distorted, tearing open another void. The fire phoenix carried her directly out.
Just as it burst out of the sky above, the fire phoenix seemed to have exhausted its strength. The flames on its body instantly went out, and its huge figure transformed back into its phoenix form, falling straight down from the sky.
Fortunately, Youyou reacted quickly, condensing her sword form again and landing safely. She supported the person in front of her, not having time to ask what had happened with the fire phoenix, but was startled by his appearance, "Phoenix... Holy crap!"
His entire body was emitting a faint white light, and within that light, his figure grew fainter and fainter, as if he were about to disappear along with the light.
"What's going on?" You You subconsciously used the Rejuvenation Technique, but found it completely ineffective. Feng Rong's figure faded even further, as if it would disappear completely at any moment. "Why is this happening? You just..."
"My clone is about to dissipate..." Feng Rong looked down at his hands, which were now semi-transparent, and suddenly stepped forward, hugging her even tighter. With a mixture of anxiety and reluctance, he pleaded, "Youyou, listen carefully... I am a Phoenix! My true body slumbers in the Nirvana Realm. You must come to find me... you absolutely must come... okay?" As if seeking assurance, he suddenly lowered his head and pressed his lips to hers. "We made a promise!"
“Feng…” Youyou was startled. Before she could respond or even process the meaning of his words, Feng Rong’s entire figure completely dissipated.
She instinctively reached out and grabbed at it, but found nothing.
"..."
