65 Opening the Phoenix Tomb (2/2)
The mystical spatial runes warped the space around Su Yan transmitting him thousands of miles away.
His body flashed as he reappeared within a massive mansion with sprawling pavilions, throughout the construction was shrubbery and gardens. This was the Su Fief capital city that was reconstructed by the Witch of Fortune.
Su Yan coldly gazed at the industrious city as a nine colored light shone in his eyes. He turned behind him to see a nine colored aurora appear out of nowhere!
The aurora twisted and turned as a sea of wills writhed within it, hundreds of malevolent faces twisted into horrendous shapes as a figure burst out from within the aurora, coalescing into a rainbow enshrouded faceless man.
Su Yan went to him knees bowed before the faceless figure, releasing a nine colored aurora around him. Su Yan looked up reverentially and politely said to the figure: ”Sir Foglord, I have a matter to report.”
The faceless figure coldly gazed at Su Yan, when suddenly the figure extended out a nine colored palm and grabbed towards Su Yan's aura. Su Yan kept his body still as the figure retracted its palm and opened it revealing a crystalline gem shaped like a crescent.
”You were followed.” The Foglord coldly intoned as he clenched his palm crushing the gem into nothingness.
A blue light emerged from the crystalline gem coalescing into the silhouette of a white-haired young man in blue robes, blue moonlight continuously emanated from his body shrouding his figure in an air of mystery.
”A pleasure to meet you, Exorcist King Foglord...” The blue figure politely said with slight inflection in its voice.
”and who might you be?” Su Yan asked with suspicious squinted eyes.
”My name is Maven and I serve His Eminence, The Demon Lord of the Blood Sect.” Maven smirked lightly as he spoke.
”What?!?” Su Yan accidentally blurted out.
”I see, so Ye Yuyan is already aware of us. Spit it out, what do you want to keep quiet?” The Foglord nonchalantly responded as he hardened his resolve.
The plan in Heaven's Realm is extremely pivotal to the Shadow Sect and any interference from other sects would ruin that. All Ye Yuyan has to do is leak the Shadow Sect's intention and their plan would be ruined.
”My master offers you the help of the Blood sect and in exchange, you will grant us the blood of the pixie king...” Maven offered with a calm and resolute voice
The Foglord went silent as he analyzed the situation and finally he spoke saying: ”Those terms are amenable to us.”
Maven smirked as a cold light flashed in his eyes and affirmed the Foglord saying: ”Then shall we proceed?”
*************************
Deep into the Eastern Lands, past the lush land and pastured fields, a black light streaked across the sky at speeds many times past the speed of sound. The fast-moving figure shot past the fields entering into a desert land in a few moments.
The sun hung high in the sky releasing intense rays of light that scorched the sun further. Only the most extreme of life could survive within the desert as tempestuous winds carried sediment sand dunes into the air creating a frightening red wind.
The figure shot through the red winds unperturbed by the continuous barrage of sand and flew deep into the desert. When the figure happened upon construction in the middle of the desert. It was a terraced pyramid with steep stairs leading up to the main temple.
Vermillion birds decorated the sides of the building, various heavenly flames were painted alongside ascending to the top of the temple, where a massive sculpture of Phoenix rising from the ashes peaked out.
The dark energies around the figure faded away revealing, a black-robed young man with a light smirk and a frighteningly cold eyes.
This young man was no other than Ye Yuyan after he consolidated his foundation in the Ye Ancestral Mountain, he headed directly to the Phoenix tomb.
Ye Yuyan opened his palm and revolved the red lotus releasing vermillion flames from his palm. As the flames burst off his palm, the phoenix sculpture suddenly came to life.
”Cahhh!” The Phoenix cried as the sculpture turned animate and flew into the air.
The massive phoenix spread its wings whipping up a massive storm and releasing a sky-high flame that could be seen worldwide.
As the phoenix rose from the ashes and shone eternally in the sky, the spot where it departed from revealed a massive hole with a dark void emanating from it.
Ye Yuyan's eyes flashed with excitement as he turned into a dark streak of light and shot into the hole without hesitation, his body entered into the darkness and shot through the void off into a distant world!
