Within the Sea of Mist.
Pang Jian's Primordial Spirit stood within the heart-shaped shard of land atop the Stone Eater and suddenly said, "No need to search for that old ape anymore."
The smaller Stone Eater halted the chunks of its body that had been whistling through the Sea of Mist and asked in astonishment, "What did you sense?"
"That old ape is finished," Pang Jian said calmly.
"Finished? Which Sovereign from above found it in the Sea of Mist? Luo Shen? Or the God of Wisdom?" The Stone Eater, a level-twelve otherworldly being, was greatly shaken.
Before Pang Jian could answer, it said uneasily, "If it was Luo Shen, then I, then I..."
The Stone Eater sighed in distress.
It suddenly regretted what it had done to the seven Heaven-Reaching Tribulation Pillars when a spatial rift had first opened.
"Do you think that Black Phoenix of the Ancient Demon Race might be able to undergo nirvana and be reborn as a human?" Pang Jian asked instead of answering.
"Be reborn as a human? Change her own race?" The Stone Eater was startled. After pondering for a long while, it said, "Ordinary demon gods probably do not possess such an ability. But if it is that Black Phoenix, then anything is possible!"
"Still, how could a human body compare to a phoenix of the Ancient Demon Race?"
"As long as she is reborn in phoenix form, she will still possess the innate gift of nirvana and rebirth, equivalent to having several lives. If she reappears in her original form, she can regain her peak combat strength from back then in an extremely short time."
"When she was a Sovereign, her combat power was unrivaled in the world, stronger than both Luo Shen and the God of Wisdom by a margin."
