Huan Caiyi's Breakthrough
🕑 Added 2024-11-11 17:29:02 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 294 ---
Huan Caiyi experienced a soul-eating illusion, facing the deceased Demon Emperor and Little Demon Emperor. Although Huan Caiyi has expected the Golden Crow's Trials to be difficult, isn't this too much?
She sighed helplessly, thinking how much she had suffered because of the death of the Demon Emperor and Little Demon Emperor. The former died because of Duke Ming's scheme, and the latter disappeared on the eve of their wedding night.
As a woman, how could Huan Caiyi not be devastated?
But she persisted.
She adapts to the silence.
She overcomes everything on her path with her tenacity and strength!
Huan Caiyi is not a weak-willed woman. She won't be the Empress of the Illusory Demon Realm if she's soft.
So, facing the deceased ones, Huan Caiyi showed her strong front.
"Demon Emperor, Little Demon Emperor..."
"I'm sorry. I can't help you at all."
"But I don't want to die for you..."
"My life... I will only entrust it to only one man!"
"AND THAT MAN IS MY BELOVED... YU LONG!"
After saying that, the surrounding space warped and turned into a familiar bedroom. Huan Caiyi stood up and saw Yu Long sitting on the mahogany wood chair, staring at her in amusement.
"Caiyi, Caiyi, what should I do with you?" Yu Long said, making Huan Caiyi smile a little.
Huan Caiyi opened her arms, "Anything."
"Anything?" Yu Long tilted his head.
"Mm, anything! I'm yours!" Huan Caiyi declared, causing the space to burst again.
Golden flame blazed through the air, tearing the illusion apart and burning Huan Caiyi.
Huan Caiyi wanted to roar her pain but decided to grit her white teeth and endure this uncomfortable experience.
While Huan Caiyi's Golden Crow bloodline is 'naturally' enhanced by the Evergreen Immortal Physique's vitality, its purity still pales compared to the authentic tyrannical Golden Crow's True Blood!
It's like comparing a bonfire and the literal sun!
Huan Caiyi felt the Golden Flame erode her body. She resisted the heat and saw her flawless skin become as dark as coal, turning into dust gradually.
Then, her blood boiled, followed by cracking bones and relapsed internal organs.
However, this is nothing.
Huan Caiyi could feel her soul and spirit burning from the Golden Flame, which was ten times more painful than physical injury.
No, even the word 'pain' is an understatement to her condition.
After a while, the only thing Huan Caiyi had left was a flicker of white light.
Huan Caiyi is 'suddenly' surrounded by darkness, and that white light is like sunlight penetrating the darkness. Yes, a lead for her to escape this situation.
Although Huan Caiyi has no arm or hand, she imagines her stretched hand grasping for the white light. Closer, closer, and closer!
With each breath Huan Caiyi took.
And each step that Huan Caiyi walks.
The uncomfortable, fiery sensation from the Golden Flame was 'slowly' replaced with extreme coolness.
Huan Caiyi sighed, watching a faint silhouette of a broad back.
"Even here..."
"You're still helping me."
"This time... I won't get left behind." A warm smile appeared on Huan Caiyi's face as she quickened her pace. Her slow steps became hastier, allowing her to close the distance with the figure in the white light.
On the outside of the trial, Yu Long and Yujin watched Huan Caiyi slowly merge with the Golden Crow's blood. Since Yujin gave her 60 drops of Golden Crow's blood, it took a while for Huan Caiyi to absorb them.
Looking at the flickering golden flame, Yu Long couldn't help but smile and comment, "Truly born from ashes."
"I didn't expect Golden Crow's Divine Flame to have such an effect."
Yujin pouted unhappily, "Gosh, please. Do not compare my flame with that Nirvana Flame."
"Although my Sun Flame's revival ability is weak, it is still a Divine Flame at the end of the day and carries the holiness of the sun. While the Sun's Flame is naturally destructive, don't forget almost every living being needs sunlight to grow."
"Especially plants!"
"Since Caiyi had the Evergreen Immortal Physique, which came from consuming the sap of the Evergreen Tree. Yes, a plant. It naturally triggered the revival of the Sun's Flame."
"Don't forget, Caiyi also absorbed 60 drops of my blood, so this development is natural."
"Give or take, she'd enter the Divine Origin Realm after this."
"Not bad, not bad at all!" Yujin laughed at the sky, feeling her inheritor is much better than that shitty phoenix.
"..." Yu Long.
Weren't you the one who looked down at Caiyi a moment ago?
If Yu Long had not demonstrated some powers, Yujin might still be arrogant. That's just how thick-skinned she is.
Yujin felt Yu Long's questioning gaze and coughed awkwardly, "W-Well, Caiyi's potential as an inheritor is much better than those in the upper realm."
"If only I could give her my artifact."
"Of course, the one Lord gave her is also not bad."
"Demonic Saber that allowed her to enter a three-stage berserk state. It's impressive because I only know Evil God, who has an eight-stage state, but even he didn't last long."
"Why did I feel your last sentence meant something else?" Yu Long was speechless.
Juyin swayed her head away, dodging Yu Long's gaze. "I don't know what you're talking about, My Lord."
"I'm just comparing Evil God's Berserk State and your Demonic Weapon's power."
Yu Long shook his head gently. "Fine..."
"You're right. While Evil God's Legacy is good, his berserk state is somewhat lacking. That's why I don't fully inherit his power."
"In fact, I think his Elemental Immunity is much better than berserk."
"I have obtained Fire and Water Seeds, and with this Lightning Seed, I can start experimenting with more lightning-attributed Profound Arts."
Yujin's eyes lit up, "Then, this lowly follower, give the seed as soon as possible!"
Yu Long waved his hand, "Calm down. Wait until Caiyi is out of the trials."
He wasn't hurrying to get the Evil God's Lightning Seed.
He has Fire Seed for Barbeque.
Water Seed for making sparkling water.
It made Yu Long wonder what he should do with the Lightning Seed.
...
...
Yu Long and Yujin waited for three more hours until the Golden Crow's Flame subsided. They saw Huan Caiyi's naked figure in the flame with her eyes closed and her body trembling slightly.
Surprisingly, the rich fire energy was 'quickly' condensed by wind power and turned into a gorgeous green-red dress.
"Damn, peak Divine Origin Realm?!" Yujin shouted in awe. "This inheritor of mine is also a monster."
"Wait, what was that!" Yujin pointed her finger at the Elemental Wind Spirit hovering around Huan Caiyi. "Is that also a Kaiju?"
Yu Long smiled, "No. That's the Elemental Spirit from another world."
"I think Primal Chaos Dimension also has Elemental Spirit, though not the same nature."
"This little fellow could grow alongside its contractor."
"Hoho." Yujin stared at the adorable wind spirit in awe. She wondered if she could create the same creature with her newfound power.
She believed she could do it.
If she tried hard enough, that is.
Huan Caiyi's eyelids fluttered slightly. She opened her eyes and revealed a pair of golden eyes with red pupils, resembling the Golden Crow.
She looked at both hands and clenched her hard, feeling immense power overflowing her body. She sensed she was ten times stronger than before, or even more.
Her affinity with Fire Element also increased to the limit.
"Congratulations." Yu Long arrived before Huan Caiyi.
"Yu Long!" Huan Caiyi blinked and threw herself into Yu Long, hugging him tightly.
"Hmm, what's the matter?" Yu Long raised his brow.
Huan Caiyi nestled her head against his broad chest and replied softly, "Thank you..."
"Thank you for everything."
Yu Long chuckled and held Huan Caiyi's slim waist while patting her back, "Silly woman..."
