During a battle between immortal emperors, this amount of time is enough to accomplish many things.
Bang!
This time, A Yao used time-stop to kick the Black Nest Lord in the abdomen, sending him flying across most of the world.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
Ayao began to breathe heavily.
It's really not easy to suspend the actions of a Celestial Emperor.
The main problem is insufficient control over the Reincarnation Bead.
Before Ayao could catch her breath, the shadow of the Black Nest Lord attacked again. Hundreds of billions of pitch-black shadow tentacles filled the entire sky and earth. The phoenixes roared and swooped down towards the shadow tentacles, but before they could even ignite them, they were torn apart. Seeing this, a thought flashed through Ayao's mind:
Why should I pause him instead of pausing his attack?
With a thought, the Reincarnation Bead glowed again.
This time, instead of halting the Black Nest Lord's actions, she stopped the shadow tentacles.
All the shadow tentacles stopped moving.
Ayao brandished her longsword, and behind her appeared the enormous figure of a nine-colored phoenix. With each swing of her sword, the nine-colored sword energy transformed into a massive vortex storm, which swept across the entire world, incinerating all the motionless shadow tentacles into ashes.
Simply pausing the attack is indeed simpler than pausing the Black Nest Lord's actions.
After the experiment was confirmed, A Yao unfurled her phoenix wings and charged toward the Lord of the Black Nest.
call out!
With a swing of her sword, hundreds of millions of golden sword energies shot out towards the Lord of the Black Nest.
A massive circular light shield appeared before the Lord of the Black Nest, enveloping him and blocking A Yao's attack. After blocking A Yao's attack, he pointed his finger, and countless rainbow-like needles shot towards A Yao. A Yao once again used the Reincarnation Bead to pause his attack; in fact, no matter what attack he used, A Yao would pause it with the Reincarnation Bead.
The Lord of the Black Nest looked at the thin needle frozen in mid-air and his expression changed.
Ah Yao has already arrived.
Things became much easier after that, and the Lord of the Black Nest was completely reduced to a state where he could only defend and could not attack.
Besides being able to pause his attacks, A Yao can also continuously restore herself to her peak condition. In short, whenever she becomes too exhausted, she uses the Reincarnation Bead to advance the timeline in her life, and then she regains all her power.

boom!
Within the Black Nest, a certain space shattered.
A black figure crashed to the ground, and a stunningly beautiful girl in colorful clothes lunged at it with her sword. The man in black robes lay on the ground, the girl's sword embedded in the soil beside his neck.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
The girl was panting.
Her long hair cascaded down, and her beautiful blue eyes held a phoenix totem. She sat on the man's lap, looking down at him, and said, "Do you admit defeat?"
The Lord of the Black Nest gazed at her stunningly beautiful face. Even if he had other tricks up his sleeve, the outcome wouldn't change. He would still be worn down by her. He sighed, "You win."
Ayao sheathed her sword, stepped away from him, and stood up.
The Lord of the Black Nest sat up, his long purple hair cascading down his back. His golden eyes surveyed the surrounding spatial fragments. Seeing his silence, A Yao sat cross-legged opposite him. They looked at each other, neither speaking.
After a long while, the Lord of the Black Nest spoke: "You have created a miracle. Then I will trust you this once and I will open the Black Nest to let you out."
He raised his hand, and a mirror appeared in his palm—the Mirror of Cause and Effect. He tossed the Mirror of Cause and Effect to A Yao, who caught it and stored it within her primordial spirit.
"You said you'd open the Black Nest and let me out, so what about you? Aren't you coming with me?" A Yao looked at the handsome face of the Black Nest Master.
He remained silent and did not speak.
“You’re going to stay here and deal with Lou Munan all by yourself? You might as well come with me. Come with me, I need you,” A Yao said.
The Lord of the Black Nest was moved by her words, "I need you," but he quickly suppressed the emotion.
Ayao walked towards him, knelt down in front of him, and looked closely into his golden eyes: "You promised me everything before, have you forgotten?"
Do I have one?
The Lord of the Black Nest looked away.
Ayao looked at his profile: "Are you afraid to be with me? What are you afraid of?"
What is he afraid of?
He was afraid he would fall in love with her, and in fact, he already was. Therefore, he was even more afraid that if he continued to be with her, he would completely lose control and become her slave.
She still longed to turn him into her main soul.
Are you afraid I'll control you?
Ayao chuckled softly, a hint of smugness in her expression.
"Because you're afraid of me, you'd rather stay here alone and face Lou Munan by yourself? Am I that scary?" Ayao asked.
He didn't look at her and tried to stand up, but Yao grabbed him, pushed him to the ground, and kissed his lips.
Her petal-like lips touched his, and he trembled, unable to resist reaching out to embrace her waist and returning her kiss. They kissed passionately for a long time before finally separating.
Ayao sat on him, her hands pressed against his chest, looking down at him, pleadingly saying, "Come with me, I need you."
If he dares to say "no," she'll have no choice but to force him.
Ayao suddenly felt that it was great to have control over the power; things had become much simpler.
"good."
Finally, she heard him say it.
Great, she doesn't need to force herself on me.
Ayao got up from him.
She stood up, and the Lord of the Black Nest also stood up.
"Open the Black Nest, I'm going to the No Return Starfield to find my friends," Ayao said to the Lord of the Black Nest.
The Lord of Black Nest nodded.
The shattered space around them began to reassemble, and after the reassembly, countless spaces within the Black Nest began to change. Countless mysterious runes appeared in each layer of space, flowing like water across the walls, the ground, and other surfaces, converging at the center of the Black Nest.

Floating in the endless starry sky were many hazy wisps of gray mist. Suddenly, a colossal object appeared within this mist, resembling a pitch-black planet. This planet-like behemoth was divided into many hexagonal chambers, looking like an enormous, pitch-black honeycomb.
Suddenly, one of the chambers in the huge, dark beehive lit up with a rainbow-like light, and then a rainbow-like bridge shot out from there, stretching for about ten miles. Two figures emerged from it, stepping on the rainbow bridge and looking around.
The two were a stunningly beautiful young woman in a white gauze dress and a handsome man with purple hair and golden eyes. When they stood together, they seemed like a perfect couple.
It was the Lord of the Black Nest and A Yao.
