Those ashes were the Sovereign of Flames?
Even the Sovereign of Flames had been burnt to ashes. Wang Zhong and Simba felt their scalps turn slightly numb as they looked towards the sky. It was just like a heavenly calamity. He had read that humans weren't strong, but dimensional life forms were unable to destroy their bases. Once a dimensional life form's strength reached a certain level, they would be confined within a certain area. Humans called it a forbidden zone. Not only that, as dimensional life forms continued to grow stronger, they would face a 'heavenly calamity'. Old Potter had said that it was more like a high-dimensional harvest, just like how humans reared pigs and slaughtered them after they had matured.
Wang Zhong didn't know if this description was appropriate. In that instant, Wang Zhong had indeed felt a similar emotion. However, he didn't feel much sorrow from the Sovereign of Flames. Instead, he felt a sliver of joy from transcendence. Wang Zhong didn't know if his feeling was correct, but he had indeed felt this emotion from the flames. However … why was he here?
"Wang, Wang Zhong." Simba's teeth chattered as he tightly grabbed onto Wang Zhong's finger. "Let, let's hurry up and leave. This place is too strange. If that fire vortex appears again, I feel that even the Fate Stone won't be able to save us … this is a high-dimensional absorption."
However, Wang Zhong had already rushed towards the centre at high speed. The Sovereign of Flames had given him immunity to fire. Furthermore, it had summoned him at this moment. It definitely wasn't just to watch a show. Once one reached such a level, the intelligence of a dimensional life form couldn't be underestimated. There had to be another reason!
At this moment, his consciousness seemed to have fused with the flames. Relying on the sensation and 'sight' of the flames, Wang Zhong could see that the falling five-coloured ashes were unexpectedly tumbling about within the sea of flames. As though they possessed a life of their own, they stubbornly gathered together with great difficulty.
The flames within the sea of flames were like nutrients for the ashes, continuously nourishing them.
However, it still felt like it was lacking something. The life force contained in the five-colored ashes was too weak. When it floated down, it was blown here and there by the wind. There was no way to gather it effectively. Even with the energy provided by the flames, it still couldn't stop the constant depletion of its life force.
The flames wailed in grief. Although they possessed a single consciousness, they weren't genuine life forms. They didn't know how to deal with it, much less how to help.
Wang Zhong could also feel these emotions. He could empathize with them and was guided by these emotions. He felt that he had to do something.
Although his power was very weak, his will could be transmitted and guided through the flames.
Under the guidance of his will, the boiling sea of fire actually swept up the scattered ashes and piled them up into a small pile.
However, this was still not enough. The life force in the ashes grew weaker and weaker, gradually losing its vitality. Wang Zhong felt a little helpless. This kind of existence was not something he could understand. Although the feeling that it was gradually disappearing was clear, it was not something he could stop. This had nothing to do with power. In fact, he did not even understand what was going on. He could not help but reach out to caress it in sympathy.
Upon coming into contact with it, Wang Zhong could feel an extremely weak sliver of consciousness coming from the pile of ashes. Unlike the powerful Sovereign of Flames, this consciousness was extremely weak. Sensing Wang Zhong's touch, the mournful wails and despair gradually calmed down, appearing just like a person on the brink of death who had finally found his final home.
That sliver of will gradually sank into the embrace of Wang Zhong's consciousness. It gradually became blurry and dark, as if it was about to close its eyes forever.
But all of a sudden, before the darkness completely descended, something seemed to have been triggered, and a ray of light shone through.
The stone slab within the Fate Stone that had once been lit up sparkled outside the window of Wang Zhong's Soul Sea! Slivers of strange runic light rapidly circulated on the stone slab, producing an endless stream of the purest fire elements. In other words, it was the will of the flames, as well as the most important life force!
The already dim ashes suddenly started to sparkle amidst the mournful wails of the sea of fire. At first, it was just a single speck of ash, but in the next instant, it rapidly spread out like wildfire!
The pile of ashes suddenly radiated with a dazzling white brilliance. Squirming and gathering, an aura of life radiated out from the pile of ashes.
Whoosh!
A palm-sized shadow suddenly shot out from the pile of ashes, shooting straight into the sky like a shooting star!
The entire sea of fire was in jubilation, revolving around Wang Zhong and Simba, appearing as if they were dancing in a joyous dance.
The shadow shot into the sky at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye, drawing circles of flames in the air.
Its figure rapidly grew in size as it flew, growing from the size of a palm to the length of an arm, before finally stopping at a length of 3 to 4 meters.
It was the Sovereign of Flames! Although it was completely different from the gigantic hundred-meter-tall figure it once was, one could still sense a sliver of the former Sovereign of Flames' elegant demeanor from its innate might.
Bang!
It suddenly pierced through the sky, before shooting down towards Wang Zhong and Simba at an unimaginable speed!
This speed was truly too fast! It was just like watching a laser beam piercing towards your chest in slow motion. Furthermore, the brilliant and god-like might radiating from it was enough to cause one's heart to tremble in fear even without it deliberately displaying it!
"Fuck, I knew it!" Simba screamed out while covering his eyes, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest. Nevertheless, Wang Zhong did not move, as he was unable to sense any hostility from the other party.
However, the expected injuries from being pierced did not arrive. Instead, his entire body was wrapped up in warmth. An infinitely shrunken version of the Sovereign of Flames had appeared, and was still much larger than Wang Zhong. The flaming wings wrapped around Wang Zhong, and one could see that it did not have a corporeal form, and only had the quality of flames. However, there was a feeling of a bloodline connection with Wang Zhong.
Rising from the ashes!
The Sovereign of Flames had sensed the Fate Stone within Wang Zhong's body, and had found another path. It was impossible for 9th rank life forms to have descendants, as they were born from absorbing large amounts of dimensional energy. Once they reached the peak, they would definitely disappear. However, the Sovereign of Flames had found a new way to be reborn.
Wang Zhong could feel the reliance it had on it. As the surrounding flames started to condense and boil, they welcomed the new Sovereign of Flames. With a resounding roar, the new Sovereign of Flames flew into the sky, beginning its rebirth. This wasn't an easy journey. Climbing to the 9th rank would require one to experience countless difficulties and dangers, as well as the possibility of becoming the prey of other powerful dimensional life forms. Wang Zhong's heart was filled with emotions. Personally witnessing such a spectacular scene, the mysteries of the dimensional world were just the tip of the iceberg. However, it had stimulated Wang Zhong's lofty sentiments.
Simba … fainted from fright.
Heaven's Fate City, Mo Family.
Continuing the ancient inheritance and culture, the winding corridors of the tranquil courtyard were filled with twists and turns.
A burst of hurried footsteps suddenly broke the tranquility of the winding corridor. It was a middle-aged man. He walked extremely quickly and anxiously, appearing as though he was jogging. In his hand, he was holding onto an urgent document that had just been submitted.
After passing through the long winding corridor, the view before his eyes suddenly opened up.
The moonlight shone brightly before him, rippling with a dark blue hue. Within the small lake in the middle of the courtyard, a faint green silhouette stood leisurely on the surface of the lake. Her clothes fluttered about in the chilly night breeze. Her face was slightly tilted upwards, while her eyes were slightly asleep.
Seemingly sensing her existence, the endless moonlight in the surroundings started to faintly converge, bathing and shining upon her. It was as though she was the center of all the spiritual energy in the world. Appearing just like an immortal that had walked out from the moonlight, her unique ethereal aura radiated from her, purifying everything in her surroundings.
The night breeze, the surface of the lake, the green grass and the pavilion appeared to have obtained new life under the ethereal aura. Bathed in the moonlight, they appeared tranquil and ethereal.
A gust of chilly night breeze blew over. Despite having seen and felt this scene many times, Mo Zibai could not help but feel an indescribable sense of tranquility rising from the bottom of his heart. Even the impatience he had felt earlier had dissipated by quite a bit.
In a bustling city like Heaven's Fate City, only this place, this scenery, and this person could bring him such peace and tranquility.
Taking a deep breath, he crossed his hands and stood there quietly, not daring to disturb her.
Appearing to have sensed his arrival, the fairy-like woman under the moonlight slowly opened her eyes.
With a slight sway of her faint green skirt, her body appeared to be floating on the surface of the lake. In the blink of an eye, she had already arrived by Mo Zibai's side.
Opening her vermillion lips, an intimate voice that sounded like the sounds of nature rang out in Mo Zibai's ears. "Zibai, what's the matter?"
"Big miss." Mo Zibai respectfully handed over the video file in his hand. At the same time, he said, "Something has happened at the explorer bases. This is the video file that was sent back urgently. Approximately two hours ago, mysterious energy fluctuations appeared in the X875 region of the hyperdimension, causing intense spatial fluctuations and dimensional storms. This includes the Diamond Explorer Base, Silver Wolf Explorer Base, Heaven's Fate Explorer Base and Iron Hammer Explorer Base. All of them have been affected to varying degrees. This should be a problem with the Sovereign of Flames!"
Not a single ripple could be seen on the woman's face as she listened to Mo Zibai's introduction, while quietly tapping on the video file.
The video file was extremely blurry, with what appeared to be chaotic spatial frequency feedback signals. Ordinary people would only feel a headache when they saw these disjointed and disorderly signals. However, in the eyes of this woman, these disjointed signals were able to rapidly form clear information.
The little princess of the Mo Family, Mo Xingchen!
She was recognized by the younger generation as an existence that had the qualifications to obtain the respect of a "princess" along with Carolyn of the Stuart Family, Divian of the Seer Family and Gui Xinying of the Gui Family. Unlike the other three, Mo Xingchen possessed the most unique bloodline of the Heaven's Fate Master.
Relying on the special abilities of the Heaven's Fate Master, the Mo Family had saved the Federation and humanity countless times during the dark era. This was also the reason why the Mo Family was able to stand out from the 10 Great Families. Ever since the dark era, there had been various kinds of disputes. However, the Mo Family had always been able to maintain a neutral position, with the various great families giving them face. No one was willing to provoke the Mo Family. Naturally, those who did provoke them had all disappeared.
For the sake of complying with the scientific concepts of the Federation, coupled with the deliberate control of the various great families within the Federation, the Mo Family's Heaven's Fate Master had already lost the halo of a "god", and had turned into a "judge". Nevertheless, they still possessed an influence that could not be underestimated.
"Something strange has happened. Due to the dimensional vortex, a few soldiers have been sucked into it. There's a spiritual body that has awakened, claiming to have seen a human within the flames …"
"A human?" A faint smile appeared on Mo Xingchen's face, while a curious expression appeared on her face. The more strange a matter was, the more beneficial it would be for her to temper her special ability.
"That's right. Not only that, the Sovereign of Flames doesn't seem to have been completely obliterated. Although its strength has been greatly reduced, it has still managed to escape the dimensional vortex. The family has already issued a bounty in the various great bases, and will be sorting out the details as soon as possible. If we're able to obtain a sample from the ruins, we'll definitely send it over as soon as possible."
Mo Xingchen nodded her head. Strange things happened every year, but there were especially many this year. "How's the investigation on All Mouthy King?"
With a bitter laugh, Mo Zibai replied. "Cough cough. Regarding this, we're indeed unable to find him. That person's too strange. He clearly possesses such strength, yet he's unknown. Are you really sure that he'll participate in the CHF?"
"Probably." replied Mo Xingchen with a mischievous smile. On the other hand, a dumbfounded expression appeared on Mo Zibai's face. You can even give it a try?
The power of the big miss' bloodline had yet to completely awaken. Nevertheless, she was already attempting to make a judgement. However, this big miss didn't like to stick to the rules. There was no need for her to predict that All Mouthy King would participate in the CHF, as a single mistake would affect the Mo Family's reputation. With the current undercurrents within the Federation, the Mo Family couldn't remain uninvolved. There were many things that had to be carefully considered.
However, the big miss had a way to convince the elders. Mo Xingchen wasn't being reckless. Rather, the power of the Heaven's Fate bloodline was getting weaker and weaker. Ever since the dark era, this power had been continuously declining. Furthermore, the family had also become more and more conservative, pretending to be mysterious. However, the more they did so, the weaker their power would become. It was extremely, extremely difficult for her to make a judgement on All Mouthy King. Mo Xingchen had treated this as a checkpoint in her cultivation. The more people that paid attention to him, the greater the pressure on the Heaven's Fate Master.
Once she overcame this, she would experience an extremely large increase in strength! On the other hand … it didn't matter. Her mental state was extremely good. If she was wrong, then she was wrong. Who said that the Heaven's Fate Master would definitely be correct? Thinking about the solemn faces of the elders, as well as Mo Zibai, who was clearly in his thirties, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
