Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

At the edge of the desert, it was desolate and silent. A towering black castle stood in the wind and sand, exuding a solemn atmosphere.

Inside the castle, a woman in a black robe was sitting on the throne, quietly gazing at the ministers in front of the stage. She had a fair complexion, cold eyes, and eyes like two deep and mysterious springs, unfathomable. This was the legendary female emperor, a peerless master in the world, who had the ability to defy the will of heaven.

"Traitors, do you think you can escape from my Dharma?" Empress Huang said lightly, her voice was like the cold wind on an iceberg, chilling.

The ministers in the audience lowered their heads, and no one dared to answer. They knew that the Empress Huang was ruthless and if they offended her, they would end up in a miserable state.

"Today, your crimes have become so serious that they are unforgivable. As the empress, I have my own rules." Empress Huang slowly stood up and looked down at the ministers, "You all, go to hell!"

As soon as the words fell, the ice-blue long sword in the hands of the Empress Huang was unsheathed, flashing with cold light. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and her figure flashed, and she came to the stage in an instant. The sword light was like lightning, bringing waves of shrill screams.

"Long live the Empress!" Amid the blood and gore, the few remaining loyal ministers knelt on the ground and shouted tremblingly.

Empress Huang looked at them coldly, and swung her sword again, blood splattering everywhere. She stepped on the corpse, slowly walked back to the throne, and sat down on it again.

"Notify the whole country that anyone with even a hint of rebellion will be put to death!" said the Empress Huang calmly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Several loyal ministers responded respectfully and then stepped back to convey the order.

Empress Huang folded her hands, her eyes gradually becoming blurred. She remembered that before this, she had experienced an incredible experience -

It was a cold winter night ten years ago. Suddenly, a powerful energy wave erupted in her body. She felt the power of her whole body sublimate in an instant, like a butterfly reborn. From then on, she possessed amazing fighting power and control, and fought her way to the pinnacle of power, becoming the undisputed empress of this continent.

However, while gaining this power, she also lost a lot. The kindness and innocence she once had was buried long ago, replaced by a cold and ruthless ruler. She didn't know what she had experienced, and it was difficult for her to understand where this power came from.

Empress Huang was silent for a moment, then slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, a resolute look appeared on her face.

"Send me the queen!" she ordered.

Several maids quickly retreated to summon the queen.

After a while, a beautiful woman in gorgeous brocade clothes walked in and bowed respectfully. This was the queen of the Empress Phoenix, and also the most respected woman on this continent.

"Queen, I have something to ask you." Empress Huang said calmly.

"Your Majesty, I will obey your orders." The Queen replied gently.

"I have been feeling uneasy lately, and I always feel like something is missing." Empress Huang pondered, "Do you have any opinion?"

The queen frowned slightly when she heard this, and then she said, "Empress, I think you may miss the innocence and kindness of those days."

The Empress Huang was stunned, as if she heard something hidden in the Queen's words. She stared at the Queen, her eyes gradually becoming deeper: "What do you mean?"

The queen smiled slightly and knelt down slowly: "I know that you, the Empress, have gone through an unknown experience, which changed your life. But I believe that you still retain the kindness and sense of justice in your heart, but it has been buried."

"You are so right." Empress Huang sighed softly, "If I hadn't encountered that incredible change, how could I be what I am today? What I lost was my past self."

"My Lady Empress, I think that maybe you should rediscover the long-lost kindness and justice, and reshape the beauty and purity you once had." The Queen said earnestly, "Because only when you find yourself again, can you truly become the undisputed Empress of this continent."

Empress Huang was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Okay, I understand. From today on, I will re-examine myself and look for those things that I have lost."

"I will fully cooperate with the Empress's decision." The Queen said respectfully.

Empress Huang smiled slightly and gestured to the Queen to stand up. She looked into the distance with a serene expression on her face.

Yes, the kindness and justice she once had are now lost. However, as long as she can still feel the faint light deep in her heart, she will definitely be able to find her former self again.

In this dark continent, she is the only one who can complete such a transformation.

Empress Huang stared down at the ice-blue sword in her hand and held it firmly.

*****

At the edge of the desert, a towering black castle was shrouded in twilight. Empress Huang set foot on a rugged mountain path alone, heading towards a solitary peak in the distance.

This isolated peak has always been the most mysterious place on this continent, with countless unknown legends. According to legend, only those masters with peerless cultivation can reach here and explore the mysteries.

The Queen walked slowly, the biting cold wind blew up her black robe and whistled past. She had no expression on her face, but her heart was full of anticipation and attraction. She felt vaguely that the lost thing she was looking for might be hidden in this lonely peak.

As the altitude got higher and higher, the breathing of the Empress Phoenix gradually became heavier. But she did not dare to relax at all, instead she quickened her pace. She knew that if she relaxed even a little, she might lose this hard-won opportunity forever.

Finally, at a very steep mountain, Empress Huang found a hidden stone path. She stepped on it without hesitation, and a fierce murderous aura followed, as if something was warning her not to act rashly.

The Queen smiled slightly and slowly drew out the ice-blue long sword from her waist. She looked solemn, for the next journey would be full of dangers and challenges. But she was not afraid at all, but even more excited, because she firmly believed that as long as she could pass this level, she would definitely find what she really wanted to find.

She quickened her pace and climbed along the rugged stone path towards the top of the mountain. At the same time, a powerful energy wave surged in her body, as if it was going to tear her apart. This feeling made the Empress Phoenix feel extremely familiar, but she was puzzled by the truth hidden in it.

After a violent shake, Empress Huang finally reached the top of the mountain. She calmed herself down, looked around, and was immediately shocked by the scene before her.

This is actually a grand temple hidden in the mountains, exuding a faint spirituality. The temple is magnificent and the whole building presents an extraordinary temperament.

The Queen Phoenix stared at the mysterious building, her heart filled with strong curiosity and anticipation. She took a deep breath and walked forward slowly.

At this moment, a powerful energy wave came from the depths of the temple, causing every cell in her body to tremble. This power seemed to be calling her and attracting her.

Empress Huang tightened the sword in her hand and strode forward. When she walked into the temple, she was shocked by the scene before her.

The interior of the temple was as bright as day, and the walls were engraved with various ancient characters and totems, which looked mysterious. In the center of the temple, a huge crystal ball was suspended, emitting dazzling light.

This light actually resonated with the energy fluctuations in the body of the Empress Phoenix, causing all the cells in her body to vibrate wildly. She felt an unprecedented attraction, as if her whole body was being pulled by this force.

Empress Huang slowly walked towards the crystal ball, her heart filled with curiosity. She stretched out her hand and carefully touched the surface of the crystal ball.

Suddenly, a powerful energy gushed out from the crystal ball, like a bright beam of light, and rushed directly into the body of the Empress Phoenix.

Empress Huang only felt a strong sense of dizziness, as if she was about to be swallowed by this energy. She struggled hard, but in the end she was unable to withstand the impact of this force and was sucked into the crystal ball.

At the last moment before she fell into darkness, Empress Huang heard an old and majestic voice ringing in her ears: "I finally found you, my child..."

*****

A strong fragrance filled the air. Empress Huang slowly opened her eyes and found herself in an unfamiliar environment.

She looked around and found that this place was like a secluded valley, surrounded by towering ancient trees, and the air was filled with an indescribable sacred breath. Empress Huang frowned slightly, stood up in confusion, and stepped forward cautiously.

At this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared from the front, and it turned out to be an old man in a white robe. The old man had a kind face and gentle eyes.

"Welcome here, Empress Phoenix." The old man said, his voice was vicissitudes and low, "I have been waiting for your arrival."

The expression of the Empress Huang changed slightly, and she subconsciously raised the long sword in her hand. But when she saw the old man's face clearly, her heart was shocked.

"Who are you...?" asked the Empress Phoenix hesitantly.

"I am the guardian deity here, my name is Murong Tian." The old man smiled slightly, "Many years ago, it was me who brought you here and opened up your heaven-defying power."

The pupils of the Empress Huang suddenly shrank, and she immediately remembered that distant night. At that time, an unprecedented energy suddenly erupted from her body, which changed her life from then on. Could it be that all this was arranged by this old man?

"You mean, the energy fluctuation at that time was caused by you?" Empress Huang narrowed her eyes and revealed a wary look.

"Yes, it was me." Murong Tian nodded, "That night, I sensed the infinite power hidden in your body and awakened it. From then on, you embarked on the road of becoming an empress and there was no turning back."

Empress Huang tightly grasped the sword in her hand, with murderous intent flashing in her eyes. "How dare you interfere in my life without permission and push me down this road of no return! I am the empress, holding great power, and you dare to do this?"

Murong Tian did not back down because of the anger of the Empress Huang. Instead, he slowly stretched out his hand and said calmly: "I know you are angry about my behavior, but please believe that I had no choice at that time. The power in your body is too strong. If it is not guided, it will easily get out of control. The consequences are unimaginable."

Empress Huang stared at the old man, the murderous intent in her eyes gradually faded. She felt the sincerity in the old man's words, and her heart was shaken.

"So, why did you bring me here now?" she asked in a deep voice.

"Because I need you to help me with something." Murong Tian said solemnly, "I want you to find the one you left behind.
