Heaven-defying Phoenix

Boom!    

Suddenly, Jiu Muli felt as if countless thunderclaps had sounded out in her mind, and her entire being seemed like it was about to explode. A wave of immense power, as if it was pressing down on her from all directions without end, made her entire body stiff and immobile, especially the blood in her body, as if it was about to explode in her veins.    

"Screech!"    

In a trance, she seemed to hear a resounding cry that seemed as if it wanted to pierce through the heavens and pierce through the endless sky.    

Whoosh. At this moment, the boundless pressure and chaotic thunder instantly disappeared.    

"What exactly is that? Is it really just a gaze? How can there be such a gaze?"    

Jiu Muli felt as if her mind had returned to normal. She was shocked and in disbelief as she looked around her surroundings, feeling that there was nothing abnormal about it, for a moment, she even thought that the scene just now was an illusion. However, the stifling and oppressive pain in her chest told her that it was definitely not an illusion.    

"I can't even withstand a single voice?"    

When she thought back to that moment just now, she felt that the explosion in her mind just now should have been the cry of the Kun Peng.    

"How could there be a Kun Peng in this world? That should be a myth that doesn't belong to this world. How could it actually exist? It must be an illusion."    

"Am I hallucinating? But what's wrong with the bloodline of Nuwa in your body? Even Nuwa exists in this world. Why can't there be no Kun Peng present?"    

"Impossible."    

"How is that impossible?"    

For a moment, she was completely stunned, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened. It was as if two voices were arguing in her mind, until she suddenly thought of the glazed palace lamp and her own revival.    

"The glazed palace lamp and my own soul don't belong to this world, but don't they exist now?"    

The world was too strange. From the day she had arrived, she had sensed that the fighting strength of those strong warriors were shockingly high, they could not even be compared with her in her previous life. In his previous life, if Qin Zheng was placed in this world, he would definitely be able to conquer the entire world, and even the nuclear bomb wouldn't be able to kill him.    

Fortunately, the Kun Peng's gaze stopped on her, causing her to heave a sigh of relief. However, she still felt a lingering fear in her heart.    

She suppressed the fear in her heart and raised her head to look again. Immediately, the enormous Kun Peng's body entered her eyes once more.    

This time, she was able to see even more clearly. The Kun Peng's body was tens of thousands of li long, and its width was similarly indiscernible. The other half was covered by its towering back, and its wings seemed to cover the entire ocean.    

In fact, the flow of seawater was just a tiny ripple in the roc's heartbeat. It hadn't moved at all.    

"How is this a Kun Peng? It's simply an invincible giant beast!"    

The more he looked, the more shocked Jiu Muli became, and the more he felt that he was insignificant.    

Just a single glance from the Kun Peng had made her unable to endure it. If the Kun Peng had used its full strength, what would happen to her? She had no doubt that she would instantly turn into ashes.    

However, before she could heave a sigh of relief, she seemed to have thought of something and her expression instantly changed.    

Because she suddenly recalled the rules of this world. In this world, the Homo sapiens and the Monster race were completely irreconcilable, and they were the targets of a fight to the death. And the Kun Peng she met today was the absolute overlord of the Monster race.    

Jiu Muli didn't dare to think further as an indescribable fear rose from the bottom of his heart.    

She touched the pearl on her neck, consciously feeling cold sweat on her palms, wanting to call Qin Zheng over without hesitation. If not for that, she would have been killed by Qin Zheng in an instant.    

"I wonder if Qin Zheng will be a match for him."    

Jiu Muli was a little hesitant, and was stuck in a dilemma. This Kun Peng was too strong, she felt that even if she let Qin Zheng come over, it would only bring Qin Zheng death.    

"Whatever, this Kun Peng still seems to be in a daze. Since it hasn't gone out yet, it's definitely unable to go out. As long as Qin Zheng can bring me out, I can escape this calamity."    

Very quickly, her heart became filled with anxiety. If she didn't leave now, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to leave anymore.    

"Little human girl, who are you?"    

However, just as she was about to communicate with the pearl, a thunderous voice rang out in her mind, causing her to feel extremely weak. Her knees felt somewhat weak, and she was no longer able to communicate with the pearl.    

"Oh no, it actually found me."    

Jiu Muli's heart was bitter, he did not know how to reply.    

"Oh, sorry, I forgot you're too weak."    

The Kun Peng spoke again.    

This time, the voice was much softer, it did not cause any damage to the mountains or the earth, and Jiu Muli did not sense anything amiss.    

It did not seem malicious?    

Jiu Muli's face was filled with suspicion, but he immediately said respectfully: "Junior Jiu Muli greets senior. I did not know that Senior would come to cultivate again, and would like to trouble you more. I am truly sorry."    

She did not know whether this great demon would go crazy and devour her in the future, because in this world, many demons loved to devour humans. The more powerful a human was, the more beneficial it would be for their cultivation.    

"Little girl from Homo sapiens, don't be afraid. I won't eat you, I didn't expect to meet her descendant."    

The Kun Peng's voice was even clearer this time, as if it was an old human. However, it was filled with the vicissitudes of life, as if it had experienced a change in life and death.    

Although her voice was soft and gentle, without any sort of presence, but in Jiu Muli's eyes, she felt her heart ache.    

"Senior? You know my ancestors? " Jiu Muli was a little doubtful.    

She was very confused as to why the Kun Peng would bother with her. She was merely a little cultivator that wasn't even a Starer, and even said that her descendant was a Emperor Bone?    

But the Emperor Bone had already been taken away by Jiu Tianxue, so why?    

"It's been a million years since I've last met a stranger. You're the first human to discover my existence, isn't it very unexpected that I could sense the familiar bloodline aura from your body? How long has it been since I last sensed the aura of the Ancient Era? I truly miss it. "    

The Kun Peng was deeply moved. It ignored Jiu Muli's question, as though it was immersed in deep reminiscence. Its tone was filled with endless sadness.    

What did it mean?    

Jiu Muli's brows tightly knitted, and for a moment, she felt that the matter was beyond her expectations.    

"Hehe, has the world changed? Has the influence of our past been erased? Looks like we have truly failed. Old friends, are you still here?"    

"Did you guys die in battle too? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have survived. I really missed you guys so much. I really wanted to fight alongside you guys … "Demonic, Demonic …"    

The Kun Peng muttered to itself. It did not utter a single word, and was in an extremely chaotic state. It made her feel a bit at a loss. Moreover, it was a chatterbox, as if she was crying and laughing along with an indescribable sorrow.    

"What the hell is it talking about?"    

Jiu Muli was puzzled, but she did not dare speak carelessly. She noticed that the Kun Peng's emotions were off, and she could not help but complain inwardly.    

"Little human girl, let me ask you, are the current demon race and Homo sapiens mortal enemies?"    

After a long while, the Kun Peng finally came back to its senses and asked Jiu Muli.    

"Yes."    

Jiu Muli nodded without hesitation. She seemed to be able to see through her thoughts facing such an elder, it was impossible for her to lie even if she wanted to. It would be better to speak the truth.    

"Sadly, humans actually treat their former comrades as enemies, what an idiot! Did they fall for some evil scheme or a traitor? The demons are about to invade us, but we're still fighting amongst ourselves, what a pity, I don't know who will be able to stop us when the time comes. "    

The Kun Peng laughed coldly. Its tone was filled with unwillingness, helplessness, and even grief and indignation.    

Jiu Muli felt chills run down her spine. She had never heard of any evil demons, she did not want to believe it, but her reason told her that such a powerful existence could not lie to her.    

"Senior, what is an evil demon?" Jiu Muli's face turned serious as she asked, she felt that she had heard something extremely amazing.    

As soon as the roc opened its mouth, it began to say that it had lived for a million years. This news was simply so ancient that it would cause anyone to collapse.    

Furthermore, when she thought about the Nuwa Bloodline, he had said that he wanted her to exterminate the Evil Demons!    

Could that evil demon be the same as the one the Kun Peng spoke of?    

"When it's time to know, you will naturally know. Why ask so much? You're too weak right now, and knowing too much is meaningless to you. Otherwise, she would have told you already. Cultivate properly."    

The Kun Peng's tone was the same as before, but it was filled with hope and anticipation.    

What was this? Talking half-heartedly?    

Jiu Muli was a little speechless, thinking back to the television screens in his previous life, where senior experts would often speak half-way and let their juniors guess. Thus, this junior had finally grasped the wrong meaning and became a scoundrel, getting killed by the main character.    

"Senior, could it be …"    

Jiu Muli asked unwillingly, but just as he opened his mouth, he heard the Kun Peng interrupt him. "Go find the answer yourself, there's no need to ask any further."    

Jiu Muli shut his mouth, he did not dare be rash, and could only take those words to heart.    

This kind of senior expert definitely wouldn't say that for no reason. He must have his reasons, and if someone of that level said that the evil spirits were about to invade, then they would invade, and there was no need for him to lie to himself.    

However, the other party was obviously unwilling to say more, so she could only helplessly accept her fate.    

"Senior, do you know where the Exotic Flame is?" Jiu Muli asked.    

Although she didn't know why, she still dared to ask this question in the end because she could no longer continue. She could only take the risk and secretly pray that her request was not too excessive and that the Kun Peng had a good impression of her.    

"Little guy, are you looking for Exotic Flame?"    

The Kun Peng was a bit surprised. Then, it seemed to remember something as it muttered, "That's right. It seems like you've also been chosen as the successor. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come here to be tested."    

Jiu Muli was speechless, and asked: "Do you know where the Exotic Flame is?"
