Chapter 118 Sacrifice
The Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird suddenly released a blazing beam of light from its beak, instantly severing all the branches binding it.
After being swept away, it carried the remaining heat straight towards Xu Chao, but was blocked halfway by the troll tree. The troll tree even thoughtfully placed a protective shield on Xu Chao with black energy.
No one knows what Xu Chao did to make the two demons care about him so much.
Then the troll tree gathered its surrounding black energy, and a ghostly light, even more terrifying than the ray released by the Crimson-Eyed Flamebird, flashed by.
The Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird's wing was instantly pierced with a large hole, and dark red blood flowed continuously, staining the ground red and igniting flames.
The Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird's wing was injured, but that didn't mean it had become a free-range chicken. It raised its head and cried out, flapping its wings and taking off despite its injury. At the same time, its pair of sharp claws, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, firmly gripped the protective shield that enveloped Xu Chao.
Seeing this, the troll tree transformed its black aura into countless demonic pythons that twisted and coiled around the claws of the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird, but the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird ignored them.
It mustered all its strength and used the flames to dry its bleeding wounds. The entire bird transformed into a ball of blazing fire, intending to burn Xu Chao and the troll black tree to ashes at the same time!
The Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird, already resigned to death, unleashed a devastating attack with all its might. Seeing the situation was dire, the Giant Tree reverted to its original form of black mist, enveloping Xu Chao.
After a dazzling light flashed, the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird lay helplessly on the ground, and the surrounding black mist had disappeared, but Xu Chao was still alive!
Although he had been burned beyond recognition by the flames, he stubbornly survived.
Upon seeing that Xu Chao was still alive, the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird let out a mournful scream.
Xu Chao ignored the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird and went straight to Nephthys's corpse, taking away the object that looked like an egg.
After Xu Chao took the egg from Nephthys's body, the flames on it suddenly weakened considerably, as if most of the flames actually came from the egg.
Without the egg, the corpse alone could not suppress the black mist below, and the already thin black mist suddenly became thicker.
If the black mist that originally rose from beneath Nephthys's remains was a stream, then it has now become a vast ocean!
Xu Chao seemed to have some reservations about the black energy. After obtaining Nephthys's egg, he put it directly into the spatial artifact and then moved towards the outside of the basin.
Seeing all this, the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird seemed to have thought of something, then its gaze hardened, and suddenly the bird turned into a ball of flame and disappeared into the air.
The disappearance of the Crimson-Eyed Flame Bird has allowed another power hidden within the basin to slowly awaken.
Yunhua and the others, who were hiding outside the basin, were so focused on the battle that they didn't notice the sudden appearance of sparks around them. The sparks seemed to be confirming something before suddenly accelerating and crashing into Yunhua's body.
Then, Aya noticed that "Yunhua" suddenly stood up, staring at the center of the basin.
"Stop looking, there's nothing we can do in this situation," Aya said.
At this moment, Xiao Ti suddenly yelled at "Yun Hua" and bent her body slightly, making an attacking posture.
Aya then noticed the changes in her junior brother, Yunhua. His eyes had turned crimson, his hair had suddenly grown longer and turned white, with only a touch of red at the ends. His gaze towards her had also suddenly become cold.
Aya reacted instantly, jumping up to create distance between herself and "Yunhua," her claw blades popping out as she asked "Yunhua."
"Who are you?"
Yunhua glanced at Aya, and that single glance was enough to intimidate her so much that she immediately collapsed to the ground, unable to move. Xiaoti, who was beside her, received the same treatment.
Yunhua ignored Aya and the others, and with a wave of his right hand, blue feather flames suddenly ignited on his body. The flames were like feathers, layer upon layer, and condensed into a pair of flaming wings behind him.
Meanwhile, twinkling sparks flew out from the basin, burning brilliantly. The flames continuously entered Yunhua's body, and some that couldn't enter in time turned into fiery feathers around her body, drifting endlessly.
With its wings spread wide, spanning several meters, it carried "Yunhua" directly to the center of the basin.
"Boss, what are you doing?!"
At this moment, Yunhua, the true form of the spirit world, was trembling with fear, completely bewildered as to what had happened.
Just now, Yunhua felt a sudden heat in his spiritual world. Before he could understand how this was possible, his consciousness was sucked into the spiritual world, where he saw a large bird that had suddenly appeared.
Although this bird has the shape of a bird, its wings grow on its waist, it has four claws, its hind legs are thick, its forelegs are short, and its body is covered with blue feathers. Yunhua had seen this appearance before, in the murals of Fenglai City.
"Nephthys?"
The patterns on the city wall of Fenglai all appeared because of the worship of the Phoenix God, so the true identity of the creature in front of us will naturally become clear.
"They're not here to settle scores with us, are they?"
The thought that Aya had just been discussing with her how to get Nephthys's egg, and now the real deal had appeared, made Yunhua very uneasy.
Fortunately, Nephthys only glanced at Aya and then ignored her, which relieved Yunhua.
However, there's something Yunhua absolutely has to say!
"Fallen Feather, whose side are you on anyway?!"
It's one thing that you couldn't help when Nephthys barged in, but what are you doing now?
The Feather of Crossing Dust was emitting specks of golden light, all of which were absorbed by Nephthys's remnant soul. Moreover, it became brighter with each bit of Nephthys's remnant soul it absorbed, clearly indicating that these specks of light were a good thing for Nephthys.
After a period of impotent rage, Yunhua had no choice but to accept his fate. Perhaps this wasn't such a bad thing? At least he could feel the impurities in his body being constantly burned away, and his spirit being forged into crystal clear glass. This was an immense blessing.
Although unable to control his own body, he could only watch as Nephthys flew to the center of the basin.
Halfway through its flight, Yunhua collided head-on with Xu Chao. At that moment, Xu Chao was like a frightened bird. His first reaction upon seeing Yunhua was to unleash his Thunderbolt attack, demanding that Yunhua take action.
Yunhua simply flapped her wings, and several firestones fell towards Xu Chao like meteors. Xu Chao quickly released the star track and activated the armor magic tool on his body.
However, the golden light emanating from his body couldn't even stop the first flint, which directly smashed his head. The remaining flints didn't stop, hitting Xu Chao one after another, leaving him riddled with holes.
The final sight of Xu Chao's corpse was so gruesome that everyone who saw it exclaimed, "It's too tragic!"
