The Heavenly Emperor's Remnant Body, the Undying Vermilion Bird (33)

Rumble...

Despite tearing apart a large portion of the Guixu land due to Xiluo's obstruction, the massive rift still couldn't obtain enough flesh and blood sacrifices.

Left with no other choice, He had to settle for second best and begin transforming the earth's matter.

As rocks and flesh mingled, a pair of wings that blotted out the sky slowly rose from the earth, as if to lift the entire earth into the sky.

This scene was simply too astonishing.

Even though Xiluo was prepared, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

But in that instant of stunned silence, the pair of colossal wings that blotted out the sky had already stirred up a storm, crashing down on Xiluo in mid-air like a mountain range.

This is literally "Mount Tai down on you"!

"I knew you stupid cat would mess things up at the crucial moment!"

In the blink of an eye, a black and white figure rushed towards Xiluo.

Sensing that familiar presence, Xiluo made no move to resist, but let the other person drag her forward.

Call out!

During this process, the yin and yang energies, visible to the naked eye, formed an absolute domain around the two individuals.

Beyond this domain lies a time that is slowing down...

Within this domain, the speed is constantly increasing...

This interplay of positive and negative, increase and decrease, has created a time-accelerated channel that is out of sync with reality.

Without a doubt, no one but the Heaven-Eroding Lord could possess such abilities.

By reversing Yin and Yang, he touched the realm of time, and the speed at Heaven-Eroding Lord grew shocked Xiluo.

"When... did you become able to manipulate time?"

Thanks to the time difference that was a hundred times greater than that of the outside world, Heaven-Eroding Lord and Xiluo finally managed to escape the giant wings that blotted out the sky.

However, this is just the beginning.

When those wings began to flap, the entire land and sky of Guixu began to tremble.

It wasn't the aftershocks of the convergence of the primordial Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, but a genuine cataclysmic event.

Rumble...

As if the sky had been torn apart, the earth rose into the air.

"What is that thing?!"

The previous question did not receive an answer from the Heaven-Eroding Lord.

Xiluo had no choice but to turn her gaze back to the pair of enormous wings that were outstretched below.

At her current level and with her limited perspective, she can only see less than one percent of the truth, like looking at a leopard through a tube.

Even from just one percent of that perspective, she could see just how terrifying that colossal creature was.

--Great wings soared into the sky, and the earth formed His body.

With the force of its wings spreading and soaring, the First Heaven, the foundation of the Heavenly Emperor's Capital's capital, completely collapsed.

"That is the will of the Guixu, the remnants of the Heavenly Emperor!"

Only then did the Heaven-Eroding Lord finally answer Xiluo's question.

They simply gazed at the colossal bird that had transformed from the earth, soaring into the sky.

The Heaven-Eroding Lord's tone couldn't hide his fear and helplessness.

That power had surpassed the limits of the Heavenly Deity; it was a primordial force truly capable of changing the world.

"The remnants of the Heavenly Emperor?"

"Wasn't He dead a long time ago? And dead for ten thousand years!"

Facing the bewildered Xiluo, Heaven-Eroding Lord muttered a curse under his breath.

"It's all your fault and that kid's fault for coming here and causing trouble."

"Don't you even consider that all the gods under Hao Jun's command who consumed the Immortality Herb left behind so many remains after their deaths?"

"That Hao Jun was, after all, a genuine Great Heavenly Deity, an ancient Heavenly Emperor who ruled this world for tens of thousands of years..."

"As the first god to cultivate the Immortality Herb, could He really die so easily?"

Xiluo blinked in disbelief, then thought about it and realized it did make sense.

Or rather, the facts are right before our eyes, leaving no room for Xiluo to question them.

Although Hao Jun is dead, his immortal remains have long since merged with this land and continue to maintain the operation of Guixu.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Heavenly Emperor's remains that this once-fallen capital of the Heavenly Emperor's Capital has been able to continue to exist for tens of thousands of years.

Unlike other secret realms, it never disappeared with the death of its creator god.

"So what should we do next?"

Unconsciously glancing at the towering pagoda in the distance, Xiluo deliberately lowered her voice and asked.

Xiluo originally intended to protect Li Boyang and buy him time for his breakthrough.

To her utter surprise, the remnant body of a Heavenly Emperor suddenly appeared, completely disrupting all her plans.

Faced with absolute power, any thoughts or intentions are like fleeting clouds, unable to cause the slightest ripple.

"What to do? This isn't a question you should be worrying about."

"After all, that kid had already thought of a solution, hadn't he?"

Before Xiluo could react to Heaven-Eroding Lord's suggestive words, a loud explosion suddenly came from not far away.

Boom!

Although it was only an explosion that lasted for a moment.

But the sound of this explosion was in no way inferior to the commotion caused by the reappearance of the Heavenly Emperor's remains.

Looking in the direction of the sound, Xiluo saw the source of the explosion— the Fifth Heaven, White Jade City.

"Azure Bird!?"

Accompanied by Xiluo's exclamation, a huge firebird burst out from the [Southern Brightness Vermilion Bird Great Formation].

"Bah!"

It was a divine bird, fiery red, with a bird's head and an eagle's beak, and tail feathers as magnificent and dazzling as a peacock's.

It was covered in red feathers, and flames surged as it flapped its wings.

Most importantly, His size was so great that it blotted out the sun as soon as He appeared.

Tumultuous!

Like a deity emerging from the sun.

It is also like an immortal being born from the stars of the heavens.

Surrounding this vermilion bird, the White Jade City, which should have fallen with the collapse of the [Southern Brightness Vermilion Bird Great Formation], transformed into twelve fire jades.

Buzzing...

The twelve fire gems circled around the Vermilion Bird, reconstructing the [Southern Brightness Vermilion Bird Great Formation] in their own way.

--Using the eight directions of heaven and earth as trigrams, we take the fire element of the due south.

--Therefore, he mixed his own essence with the five elements and used the Nanming Formation to complete it in nine cycles.

This is similar to [the Black and Yellow Qi] and [the Essence Qi].

[Southern Brightness Li Fire] had never appeared in this world before the birth of the Vermilion Bird.

"Although it was a clever trick..."

"But she truly rose to the top in one leap, reaching the pinnacle of the Qi Dao."

Looking up at the Vermilion Bird in the sky, a barely perceptible hint of envy flashed in Heaven-Eroding Lord's eyes.

Although the Heaven-Eroding Lord did not believe that the path he had taken was a wrong one.

However, the idea of "when heaven and earth are gone, I stand alone" clearly eliminated the possibility of him nurturing his own primordial Yuan Qi through the [Method of Pill Formation in Nine Revolutions].

The blazing [Southern Brightness Li Fire] shone brightly and majestically.

It happens to have an unusual suppressive effect on the remains of Gods and Devils, such as the remnants of the Heavenly Emperor.

Heaven-Eroding Lord did not believe this was merely a coincidence.

This was clearly a backup plan that Li Boyang had arranged beforehand.

The remnant of the Heavenly Emperor was clearly aware of this, and an even larger body manifested as the earth was reorganized.

Then, a ferocious and hideous bird's head emerged from the crack in the earth.
