The sky above Mount Kunyu, which had always been blue, was now a completely different color. Black elemental holes filled the cloudy sky as far as the eye could see. Chaotic auras that did not follow any pattern were lashing at this messy world that was filled with broken trees and broken roots.
Space was also fragmented, severely distorted due to the excessively powerful energy explosion, or swept by the destruction, constantly attracting chaotic storms to this place, destroying everything together!
The vast grassy valley had been reduced to a ravine, a cave, and a pit that had changed beyond recognition. The divine trees that covered the sky had also become dilapidated walls. They were no longer towering and touching the sky, no longer magnificent and magnificent!
"I … I'm sorry for a lot of people, but I'm sorry for you the most. If there's anything I can do for you, or for them, it's to use everything I've learned to destroy the demon tree!" Yan Shi's white hair fell off her head. She was withering after her life force was depleted. The energy of her soul had been depleted.
The Moon Moth Phoenix beat her wings and caught Yan Shi, who was falling to the ground along with the broken tree trunks. The demon tree was determined to kill her in the end. Its roots rose into the air and drained the Moon Moth Phoenix of her life force …
It could recover its original appearance within ten years after digesting a Totem Beast. The outer part of Mount Kunyu was no longer suitable for it to nourish the soil. It had to move to another place. It was difficult for a plant-type demon to migrate, but it was better than being attacked by a bunch of demon beasts and vanishing from the world.
The Giant Purple Linden had learned a long time ago that there was a human in Yantai who was strong enough to kill a Totem Beast. It initially thought the threat had died, considering how short a human's lifespan was, yet she still managed to see through it!
Even a demon beast that had lived for a thousand years would not be able to escape unscathed if a human that was considered half a Forbidden Mage was trying to take it down with her. The Giant Purple Linden had never suffered such great damage before. Four of its main trunks had collapsed. It had finally managed to inflict serious injuries on the terrifying human, who was on the verge of dying, when the Moon Moth Phoenix showed up!
…
The Moon Moth Phoenix flew across the cloudy sky and headed for the exit of the valley.
It had helped Yan Shi destroy the fourth trunk of the Giant Purple Linden, but it was already the best it could do …
The Moon Moth Phoenix used all her might to bring Yan Shi away. Even though she was only one tree trunk away from killing the demon, even though she was unwilling to admit it, she had no choice but to admit that it was too late.
The Moon Moth Phoenix flew across the cloudy sky and gradually saw a clear blue sky. They had left the valley covered in blood and countless corpses behind them. The Moon Moth Phoenix was able to locate Mofan and the others by following Yu Shishi's aura …
…
"It's the Moon Moth Phoenix!" Ling Ling exclaimed, pointing into the sky.
Yu Shishi lifted her gaze and saw the Moon Moth Phoenix covered in wounds and bruises. She was so weak that it seemed like she would die at any second.
Mofan hurriedly took out all the sacred medicines he had, but they were completely useless. The wounds inflicted by the Devil Tree could not be healed. Moreover, Yan Shi's life force had already dried up, and it had nothing to do with her wounds.
"Grandmother …" Chen Ying's eyes reddened. For some reason, Chen Ying was reminded of her mother when she saw Yan Shi in such a state.
Yan Shi and Jiang Feng were indeed mother and daughter. They were willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of their beliefs!
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry …" Yan Shi lay on the soft leaves and stared at the Moon Moth Phoenix with a blank face. She kept repeating the same sentence.
The Moon Moth Phoenix suddenly turned into specks of light and disappeared in front of the group. Following it, a tiny Moon Moth with a glowing glow beat its wings and landed on Yan Shi's shoulder.
Yan Shi had reached the end of her life. She recalled a lot of things in the past. She had gone from being a trainee Magician whose legs would tremble whenever she saw demon creatures to the leader of the Magic World. She had won everyone's respect for her legendary journey, but in the past thirty years, she had defined herself as a failure!
She was a failed mother. Her daughter, Jiang Feng, had suffered a lot, yet she had failed to protect her. She was a heartless descendant of a Totem Beast. She had betrayed her beliefs and killed the Totem Beast that trusted her the most. Everyone was hoping that she would become a Forbidden Magician. Her goal was to become a Forbidden Magician. However, when she finally became a Forbidden Magician, all that was left was an empty shell. She had been letting down and hurting the people closest to her.
What was the point of a Forbidden Magician? Compared to Jiang Feng, who had sacrificed everything to protect Chen Ying, compared to her daughter, who was willing to stay alone in the North Burning Valley to repay her kindness, compared to the Moon Moth Phoenix, who had chosen to jump into her trap, compared to the Moon Moth Phoenix, who still chose to stand on her shoulder after she had shattered her feelings for her, she was just too insignificant. She even went back on her word when she had promised Xiao Dongxia a small favor …
Yan Shi kept murmuring to herself. She kept repeating the words of extreme pain and regret.
Mofan and Zhao Manyan looked at the old woman in astonishment. Apart from realizing that she was indeed half a Forbidden Magician, they were also touched by the regret she had uttered.
Yan Shi's eyes seemed to have lost their sight. She reached her hand forward and happened to touch Mofan's hand.
Mofan thought Yan Shi was looking for Chen Ying. He tried to place his hand on Chen Ying's hand, but Yan Shi grabbed Mofan's hand tightly.
"Don't … don't let the people close to you down, don't let the people close to you down …"
Mofan thought Yan Shi would keep repeating the same sentence, but her body suddenly lost its temperature after the second sentence!
The little moth that the Moon Moth Phoenix had turned into was wrapped in a white silk. It seemed to have reached the end of the cycle of life after Yan Shi's death …
Yu Shishi held the Moon Moth Phoenix in her arms nervously. The Moon Moth Phoenix was too weak. She was no different from an ordinary blue moth. Wisps of light slowly flew toward Yu Shishi and entered her body, as if they were forming a special connection with her.
"You are the Moon Moth Phoenix's next guardian," Ling Ling said to Yu Shishi, who was at a loss for words.
"Does she still remember what happened?" Yu Shishi asked.
Yu Shishi could tell that the Moon Moth Phoenix was in great pain. She was trying to escape from reality by falling into a deep sleep.
"I don't think so. She has already gone through the cycle of life with the old lady," Ling Ling said.
"Mm, I'll take good care of her," Yu Shishi nodded.
As a matter of fact, Yu Shishi did not expect the Moon Moth Phoenix to have such a past. To her surprise, the Moon Moth Phoenix was still kind to humans despite being betrayed and murdered by them. She had given her a new lease of life, a new hope, even though she had been abandoned by the humans.
