Chapter 715 Injured
Upon hearing this, the high priest did not utter any mocking words. He simply looked at Lin Zhao with his magnificent eyes and said, "You are the opponent chosen by the gods. I look forward to our meeting."
As the Ancestral Dragon Sealing Heaven Flame burned, the High Priest's figure gradually vanished into nothingness.
Once the high priest's figure had completely disappeared, the Nuwa Stone suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light.
A graceful figure slowly emerged from the light of the Nuwa Stone, with a human body and a snake tail, exuding an elegant and unparalleled beauty.
Lin Zhao subconsciously took a few steps back, not out of fright, but out of instinctive respect for the Creator God.
Although this is just a projection of Nuwa's clone, it is enough to amaze the world.
From the moment the projection appeared, it cast a gentle gaze upon Tian Dao Cong: "Successor of Nuwa, thank you for bringing the one who will eliminate the evil thoughts from another world that were suppressing me."
Tian Dao Cong never expected that there would be a projection of Nuwa inside the Nuwa Stone. She froze on the spot the moment she saw Nuwa. Only after Nuwa finished speaking did she come to her senses and stammer a reply: "This is thanks to the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor. If it were me, I would know nothing and be allowed to be taken advantage of by the evil thoughts from another world."
Nuwa simply smiled and shook her head at her words: "Everything is preordained by Heaven, this one..."
Nuwa's gaze fell on Lin Zhao: "Perhaps it would be more appropriate for me to call you the Dragon-Phoenix Goddess?"
Lin Zhao quickly shook his head: "I am not yet a Celestial King. You may simply address me as Lin Zhao, Your Majesty."
“You already have the rudiments of your own world will, and you are the one chosen by both the Ancestral Phoenix and the Ancestral Dragon…” Nuwa’s gaze swept over Lin Zhao for a moment, as if she had discovered something, and then she smiled: “Indeed, the Dragon-Phoenix Goddess is not suitable for you. You will have your own new future, and your future achievements will surpass ours.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao quickly replied, "Your Excellency flatters me."
What a joke! Her greatest reliance right now is still what the Ancestral Phoenix and the Ancestral Dragon gave her. She'd be laughing all the way to the bank if she could reach the level of the Creator God and fight against the evil thoughts from another world, let alone surpass the Creator God.
Nuwa did not respond further to Lin Zhao's statement. She simply expressed her gratitude to Lin Zhao and then turned her attention back to her descendants.
"I can sense that the bloodline of Nuwa in your body is very pure. Your talent and comprehension are outstanding among the successors of all generations. I am very satisfied that you will succeed me and inherit my power."
Upon hearing this, Tian Dao Cong was almost overjoyed and wept, immediately kneeling on the ground and bowing his head.
A silver mark appeared between Nuwa's brows, followed by overlapping palm prints. Her figure transformed into streams of light, and one inheritance after another entered Tiandao Cong's body. At the same time, Tiandao Cong's identity as Nuwa's successor was slowly being activated.
Seeing this, Lin Zhao turned around, set up an array, drew the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, and planted it in the ground in front of him to begin protecting the formation.
This tradition lasted for seven days and seven nights.
After seven days and seven nights, Lin Zhao felt everything quiet down. Before she could turn around, the figure of Tian Dao Cong appeared before her.
The other person's appearance remained unchanged, but their demeanor had subtly shifted.
If one had to describe it, the original Tian Dao Cong was aloof and resolute, but now Tian Dao Cong has gained a touch of gentleness and compassion, and has become somewhat divine.
Moreover, Tian Dao Cong's cultivation level also soared to the Great Perfection of the True Immortal stage, leaving Lin Zhao speechless.
Even though I received the inheritance from the Ancestral Phoenix and the Ancestral Dragon, my cultivation level didn't increase this much. I went directly from the Integration Realm to almost becoming an Immortal.
This made Lin Zhao, whose cultivation speed was already incredibly fast, somewhat envious.
After hearing Lin Zhao's感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or misunderstanding), Su Bai chuckled and said, "There's no comparison. She herself possesses the bloodline of the Nuwa Emperor, and it's extremely pure. In addition, her status as the successor of the Nuwa Emperor is even more special. That projection should be the last means that the Nuwa Emperor left in the Nuwa Stone, containing her core power and inheritance. Therefore, once this little girl from the Heavenly Dao Clan has fully grown up, she can be considered the second generation of the Nuwa Emperor. Even if she isn't, she will still be stronger than ordinary successors of the Nuwa Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao immediately understood why the High Priest had tampered with the Nuwa Stone. It was not only to cut off the last hope of the Three Sovereigns Plane, but also to completely destroy Nuwa's backup plan.
Having obtained the core power of a creator god, it's not surprising that one could soar from the Integration Stage to the Great Perfection of True Immortal. Tian Dao Cong and Lin Zhao quickly greeted Su Bai and then went to deal with the affairs of the Tian Dao family. The most important part of this was announcing their inheritance of Nuwa's power.
Lin Zhao and Su Bai parted ways with her, but then noticed that Tian Dao Jin hadn't followed. Thinking of the Tian Dao family's legacy, Lin Zhao looked at him with a hint of pity.
"If Nuwa appears, will Xihuang appear soon?"
Tian Daojin nodded.
Lin Zhao sighed and said, "Actually, you don't need to worry too much. After all, siblings can be very good friends."
When Tian Dao Cong was not around, Tian Dao Jin was a model of gentleness on the outside but cold on the inside. When he heard Lin Zhao's words, he only gave a perfunctory reply: "Thank you for your comfort, Your Majesty, but I have already awakened the power of the successor of the Xi Emperor."
Lin Zhao: "...Then what are you looking so forlorn about here?"
Tian Daojin shook his head: "I'm just a little excited."
Lin Zhao looked at him and saw that his expression was no different from usual, so it was really hard to tell what was so exciting about him.
Tian Daojin didn't explain to her, but politely and distantly said goodbye to the two of them before going to catch up with Tian Daocong.
Su Bai crossed his arms and scoffed, "Same old thing."
Lin Zhao immediately understood that Su Bai meant that Emperor Xi was the same way back then.
"No wonder you don't get along well with them."
Su Bai nodded: "These two are always inseparable, and Houhuang is a warmonger. If the three of them hadn't been born at the same time, I don't think they could have created a plane together. This kid is at least polite, Xihuang..."
Su Bai didn't want to recall that guy who, apart from having endless topics with Nuwa, always had a deadpan expression towards everyone else.
However, seeing the two siblings of the Tiandao family complete their inheritance and their previous conversation with Houhuang triggered too many of his past memories.
Su Bai looked up at the somewhat gray sky over the Three Emperors' Plane.
"Sister Zhao Zhao, can we really defeat the gods and restore order to the cultivation world?"
Lin Zhao did not respond.
In fact, after coming into contact with that high priest, Lin Zhao's soul is still in turmoil, and her internal organs cannot recover no matter how many elixirs she consumes, and her injuries are constantly worsening.
If even a high priest is like this, then what about the god...?
Lin Zhao said, "If not, I'll die with you."
At least die before the cultivation world is completely swallowed up.
Su Bai breathed lightly: "In such a vast world, is there really no way to deal with them?"
Lin Zhao didn't speak. She felt the devastating pain emanating from her internal organs, suppressed the metallic taste in her throat, raised her hand and patted Su Bai's shoulder, comforting him, "It will happen."
But she needs to rest and see what's wrong with her body.
