Chapter 2867: Chapter 2841: Who Exactly Are You (Part 1)
In an endless expanse of ruins.Correct content is on freew.ebnovel.c om.
Xia Ruoxue’s eyes were tightly shut.
The blood dragon coiled around her.
In front of her floated a flame that shimmered with starlight, unbelievably mysterious.
This flame seemed harmless.
It even appeared somewhat dream-like.
But once she summoned it, Xia Ruoxue’s face was instantly covered with sweat.
She used all her strength to penetrate it. Although not too obstructed, going deeper was extremely difficult.
Crucially, Xia Ruoxue discovered that the spiritual energy in her dantian seemed to be forcibly drained by some power!
Refining this Reincarnation Star Flame demanded such a high price.
In just a few minutes, Xia Ruoxue’s face turned extremely pale, and her clothing was soaked.
Suddenly, the Reincarnation Star Flame expanded dramatically, and a surge of intense pressure rolled forth!
Xia Ruoxue’s strength could no longer sustain her, and she vomited a mouthful of crimson blood!
Her body collapsed to the ground.
"Sister Xue!"
The Reincarnation Star Stone rushed before Xia Ruoxue, flowing with tranquil starlight, covering Xia Ruoxue’s delicate body.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
Xia Ruoxue’s hand moved, her long lashes trembled, and she opened her eyes.
"I’m fine."
"If I can’t even refine this flame, what right do I have to be Ye Chen’s woman?"
"I want to share some of the burdens."
At this moment, Xia Ruoxue’s eyes were filled with determination.
Her slender and fair fingers gently reached out, touching the Reincarnation Star Flame.
Then, as Xia Ruoxue operated the cultivation method, the starlight behind her gathered into a Phoenix Illusion.
The phoenix cried to the sky, flapping its wings, charging toward the Reincarnation Star Flame!
"Bang!"
An overwhelming force collided!
The chains of the Reincarnation Star Flame began to faintly crack.
Xia Ruoxue’s eyebrows flashed with excitement, directing her divine soul inside!
However, as her divine soul entered the Reincarnation Star Flame, a cold, dreadfully aloof female voice echoed in her ears.
"Lowly being, dare to touch the Reincarnation Star Flame, die!"
In the next second, the Reincarnation Star Flame suddenly transformed!
It turned into a Starlight Sword aiming straight for Xia Ruoxue’s brow!
If it pierced in, Xia Ruoxue would surely die!
"Sister Xue! Be careful!"
The Reincarnation Star Stone shouted.
Xia Ruoxue hesitated no more, her graceful hand formed a seal, and a golden ancient rune shield floated in front of her!
Thinking it could at least block a bit!
But unexpectedly, the rune shield shattered on the spot, turning into powder!
Xia Ruoxue knew the Reincarnation Star Flame was powerful, but she never expected it to be so domineering!
It was just a failed refining attempt; was it necessary to eradicate her?
As the Starlight Sword neared, suddenly, a dragon roar rang from the lakebed.
In an instant, the lakebed stirred with Fengyun, vortexes swirling!
Then the illusory blood dragon charged unyieldingly at the Starlight Sword!
"Bang!"
Two immense forces collided!
The illusory figure of the blood dragon, composed of a myriad of dragon scales, dimmed slightly!
And the Reincarnation Star Flame’s fluctuation ceased.
The blood dragon looked gravely at the flame and spoke, "Miss Ruoxue, there’s a trace of someone’s remnant thought within this Chaotic Star Flame."
"Just a trace of remnant thought is so powerful; the person behind it must have a level of cultivation far above my main body."
"This shadowy figure of dragon scales might disperse; however, that remnant thought will also dissipate, so there should be no threat to you."
"Miss Ruoxue, if you encounter danger in the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace, quickly go to a forbidden area in the Abyss; my main body is trapped there, unable to emerge for a short time. But if you reach there, I can protect you a bit."
With that, the Reincarnation Star Flame changed, the starlight forming into a faint female silhouette.
Xia Ruoxue was shocked to see that this woman was the Emperor Aura Woman she saw earlier.
The shadowy figure of the Emperor Aura Woman glanced at the crowd, her eyes showing slight surprise upon seeing the blood dragon, then finally settling on Xia Ruoxue.
After a while, a voice slightly tinged with majesty came, "Who are you? Why do you not kneel before me?"
Then, Xia Ruoxue felt a mountain-like pressure heavily pressing down on her shoulders!
Her knees bent! Pushing her downward!
Clearly, the Emperor Aura Woman was forcing her to kneel.
But Xia Ruoxue, a proud woman by nature, how could she willingly kneel before this woman!
She gritted her teeth, releasing spiritual energy, her bloodline bursting forth! Even surrounding herself with a blood mist.
"Sister Xue!"
The Reincarnation Star Stone protected Xia Ruoxue, trying to relieve her pressure!
But it was immensely difficult!
As Xia Ruoxue was about to kneel, suddenly, a trace of Reincarnation Energy exploded from around her!
Striking to the very core!
The restraints and pressure from the Emperor Aura Woman vanished instantly.
"Reincarnation bloodline! How is this possible!"
"Who on earth are you!"
The Emperor Aura Woman’s expression filled with extreme astonishment.
Just as she intended to ask more, the vanishing illusory blood dragon suddenly charged!
Instantly, the surface lure of the Emperor Aura Woman dispersed.
The ruins at the lakebed returned to serenity.
A faint Reincarnation Star Flame slowly descended.
Xia Ruoxue exhaled a breath of dense energy, reaching out to cradle the Reincarnation Star Flame, softly saying, "Now it should be easier to refine, right?"
The Reincarnation Star Stone nodded slightly, then shook its head: "Although the remnant thought is gone, refining this Reincarnation Star Flame isn’t straightforward. It’s fortunate you possess a part of the Reincarnation bloodline; how long it will take, I can’t say."
Xia Ruoxue sat cross-legged, suddenly considering something: "Star Spirit, what exactly is the identity of that woman? Just a remnant thought, yet she possessed such power?"
The Reincarnation Star Stone chose silence.
Xia Ruoxue knew the Reincarnation Star Stone wished to conceal something, so she said, "Star Spirit, it’s fine if you don’t tell me these things, but at least tell me where this woman is. Is she in the Divine Kingdom, or somewhere else?"
The Reincarnation Star Stone hesitated for several seconds before letting out a long sigh and saying, "Upper Realm."
Xia Ruoxue was stunned, then her eyes became much more determined.
About the Upper Realm, she knew a bit.
Every divine pillar within a sect of the Divine Kingdom comes from the Upper Realm.
The Upper Realm is closely related to the Divine Kingdom yet remains mysteriously elusive.
She’d even read in the Ancient Books of the Divine Extreme Sect that in ancient times, during the era of the Samsara Master, the Upper Realm and Divine Kingdom were closely linked, even a scenario of parity.
But after the Samsara Master’s downfall, somehow, the Divine Kingdom became subservient to the Upper Realm.
And there are so many mysteries within.
Not thinking much further, no matter what the woman’s background is, Xia Ruoxue believed that as long as she worked hard on her cultivation, she could surely surpass that woman!
Bursts of starlight brewed at the lakebed, as if this Blood Lake had transformed into a breathtaking Star Sea...
...
Meanwhile, in the Upper Realm.
An imposing palace.
Inside the palace, it was incredibly quiet, with a woman in golden attire sitting in a chair adorned with dragon and phoenix runes in the grand hall.
