High above the Dragon-Phoenix Platform, golden light spread, eventually forming an enormous, slowly rotating spatial vortex.
The vortex was fathomlessly deep, with spatial turbulence faintly visible within it. It radiated heart-quaking fluctuations, clearly marking it as a passage to the outside world.
With that, the struggle for the inheritances within Dragon Phoenix Heaven had finally settled.
Mu Chen glanced at Nine Nether beside him. Her aura was more condensed and substantial than before she had entered the secret realm; she had clearly reaped considerable rewards.
He smiled faintly without saying anything, then took the first step toward the golden vortex.
Nine Nether did not hesitate. Her graceful figure moved, following close behind him.
One after the other, their figures vanished into the vortex suffused with golden light.
Light warped, and their surroundings blurred. After barely a dozen breaths, the view before them suddenly opened up.
The ancient, primeval air that had permeated the world ever since they entered Dragon Phoenix Heaven was now entirely gone; the oppressive might of dragons and phoenixes in the air had also dissipated.
In its place was a familiar sense of a clear, tranquil world that eased their hearts slightly.
The sunlight was warm, with rolling mountains and lush green forests in the distance.
They had returned to the skies outside Dragon Phoenix Ancient City.
Mu Chen and Nine Nether stood side by side in midair. Neither released any spiritual energy, yet the composed, weighty bearing they naturally exuded seemed to silence the world for a moment.
The sound of rushing wind rang out around them as figures shot out of the spatial vortex and descended in various directions.
When their gazes swept over the two figures in the air, their expressions all changed, unable to conceal their awe.
