Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

The azure sky could not hide the golden palace, and the dazzling light seemed to come from the realm of the gods. The goddess Dihuang Feng Qingcheng was slowly stepping into the magnificent temple. She was wearing a long white dress with a ribbon wrapped around her body, reflecting a charming luster in the sun. She walked gracefully and calmly, and her big black and white eyes scanned the surroundings with a little caution.

This magnificent palace was where she had been frequenting in recent months. Here, she could feel an indescribable attraction, as if something was quietly calling her. She was not sure where this feeling came from, but her intuition told her that there must be some unusual secrets hidden here.

At this moment, she was about to explore again. She walked slowly through the wide corridor, her eyes wandering from room to room. The palace was luxuriously decorated, with rare gems and exquisite sculptures everywhere, all of which showed that this place was extraordinary.

At this moment, she heard a rustling sound coming from behind her. Feng Qingcheng turned around alertly and saw a dark shadow approaching quietly in the dim corridor. She squinted her eyes and focused her attention to identify it carefully. After a moment, she could see the appearance of the person clearly.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" she asked in a deep voice, staring at the man with a little wariness.

The man walked out of the shadows slowly. A man in a black robe, his face hidden under a hood, could not be seen clearly. "I am just a passerby who accidentally stumbled into this place." He answered calmly, "I don't know where this place is. But I am very happy to meet such a beautiful woman."

His voice was deep and magnetic, and he made people feel a strong pressure when he spoke. Feng Qingcheng's pupils shrank slightly, and alarm bells rang in her heart. Although she did not feel the hostility of the other party, her intuition told her that this person was not an ordinary person.

"If you don't know, why are you exploring here?" she demanded. "This is not a place where ordinary people can come and go at will."

The man chuckled, "I'm just attracted by the atmosphere here. You see, the environment here is elegant and full of mystery, which makes people want to explore it involuntarily." He paused and continued, "However, since you seem to know a lot about this place, why don't you tell me, what exactly is this place?"

Feng Qingcheng stared at him and was silent for a moment before speaking: "This is my private territory. Ordinary people will not easily break in. However, since you are already here, I don't mind telling you something."

She raised her hand and pointed forward, "The main hall of the temple is in front of us. It is said that there is an extremely precious treasure stored there. I have always wanted to go and find out, but every time I go there, I always feel uneasy, as if something is calling me."

The man nodded, "I see. Then, how about we go and see the treasure together?" He extended his hand and invited, "You don't mind if I go with you?"

Feng Qingcheng was slightly stunned, then shook her head and refused, "No, I can go alone. Since you broke in by accident, please leave on your own. After all, this is not the place you should come to."

"Oh? It seems that you are very interested in the secrets here." The man chuckled and said, "Don't you want to know what the treasure is? I can help you explore it."

He took a step forward and stared at Feng Qingcheng with burning eyes. "Besides, it's dangerous for you to go alone, right? If you encounter any accidents, it will be troublesome. Why not let me stay by your side and give you some protection."

Feng Qingcheng frowned, and became more alert to this man. But she had to admit that he had some truth in what he said. After all, there were some unknown secrets here. If there was any danger, it would be dangerous to go there alone.

"Okay, since you insist, then come with me. But you have to abide by my rules and not leave my side without permission." She said in a deep voice.

"Of course, I will follow all your instructions." The man smiled slightly, then walked side by side with Feng Qingcheng, and the two walked towards the temple hall one after the other.

The hall was magnificent, and the atmosphere was solemn and mysterious. Feng Qingcheng and the mysterious man walked step by step towards the center of the hall, where a towering jade altar was placed. Above the altar was a treasure of a special shape, emitting a dazzling light that made people hold their breath.

"This is the treasure that has haunted my dreams." Feng Qingcheng murmured to herself, "I always feel that it is calling me, enticing me to come here."

The man examined the treasure on the altar, and an elusive look flashed in his eyes. "It is indeed an extraordinary treasure. What is its origin? Why is it here?"

Feng Qingcheng shook her head, "I'm not sure either. However, I can feel the strong aura it exudes, it must have extraordinary power." She paused, and then said, "I have always wanted to get close to it, but every time I get close I feel uneasy, as if something is stopping me."

The man hesitated for a moment, "Do you plan to try again?"

Feng Qingcheng nodded, "Yes, I must find out the secret of this treasure. No matter what obstacles I encounter, I must find out its origin."

"Then I'll go with you to have a look." The man said with a smile, "Maybe I can help you with something."

Feng Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement. The two of them slowly walked towards the altar, and with every step they took, the mysterious power became stronger.

Just as they were about to touch the treasure, a strong energy wave suddenly swept over, causing the two to step back involuntarily. The energy seemed to have life, wandering freely in the hall, as if warning them not to get close.

"This power... is so strong!" Feng Qingcheng took a breath, "It can actually block our approach. Is this treasure really so dangerous?"

The man was silent, frowning. He reached out to the treasure, but the moment he touched the energy wave, he felt as if his whole body was pierced by an electric current, and a sharp pain came over him. He involuntarily took a few steps back, gasping for breath.

"It seems that this treasure is indeed not simple." He said slowly, "We'd better be careful. Maybe it doesn't want to be touched."

Feng Qingcheng looked at him worriedly, "Are you okay? It seems that this force is indeed very strong and should not be underestimated. Let's retreat for the time being and wait for me to figure out how to deal with it."

The man nodded, "Okay, maybe we can make some new discoveries if we step back for now. But I'm looking forward to exploring the secrets of this treasure with you." He raised his eyebrows and looked at Feng Qingcheng, "What do you think? Do you want me to stay with you?"

Feng Qingcheng pondered for a moment, "Since you are also interested in this treasure, let's go together. But you have to abide by my rules and not act on your own."

"Of course, I will do as you say." The man smiled slightly, then left the temple with Feng Qingcheng.

The two returned to the corridor, and they were silent all the way. The man kept observing Feng Qingcheng, his eyes filled with curiosity. Although he was also very interested in the treasure, he wanted to know the origin of the mysterious woman in front of him.

"I don't know your name yet." he suddenly said.

Feng Qingcheng glanced at him and said, "You can call me Feng Qingcheng."

"Feng Qingcheng..." the man repeated the name softly, "A very distinctive name. What about me? You can call me Ye Wuchen."

"Ye Wuchen?" Feng Qingcheng frowned slightly, "This name is quite mysterious. It seems that you are not simple either."

Ye Wuchen chuckled, "I'm just an ordinary person. However, I feel honored to explore the secrets here with you. I will do my best to help you."

Feng Qingcheng remained silent, but she felt a little uneasy. This Ye Wuchen gave her a strange feeling, as if he was hiding some unknown secret. But she couldn't explain the origin of this feeling.

"That treasure must have an unusual origin." She suddenly said, "I must find out the truth about it. No matter what happens, I must find out its secret."

Ye Wuchen nodded thoughtfully, "I understand your idea. But you have to remember that some secrets may not have to be revealed. Sometimes it will bring unpredictable consequences."

Feng Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, "I know you're worried. But I always feel that the treasure has some connection with my fate. I must find out the truth before I can feel at ease."

Ye Wuchen sighed, "Well, since you have made up your mind, there is nothing I can do. But I still hope you can be more cautious. Who knows what kind of impact that treasure will have on you."

Feng Qingcheng smiled faintly, "Don't worry, I will be careful. With you by my side, I will be even more careful."

The two walked side by side in the corridor, and the air around them was filled with an inexplicable tension. For some reason, Feng Qingcheng always felt that Ye Wuchen knew too much about the treasure and everything here. But she did not ask more questions, but focused on her goal - to find out the secret of the treasure.

Soon, they returned to the room where Feng Qingcheng was previously. The environment here was elegant and the decoration was exquisite, giving people a feeling of tranquility and comfort.

"This is my private residence." Feng Qingcheng explained, "I will rest here temporarily and think about the next action. You can also wait here, but don't leave without permission."

Ye Wuchen nodded, "Okay, I'll wait here obediently." He looked around, "This is indeed a very good place."

Feng Qingcheng smiled at him, then turned and walked towards the bookshelf in the room. She carefully looked through the books on the bookshelf, as if she was looking for something.

At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly flashed from behind her, followed by a powerful force covering her. She turned around suddenly and saw a ball of golden light coming towards her at an alarming speed.

The next moment, the light and shadow turned into a figure in front of her, and a woman in a gorgeous robe slowly appeared. She had a beautiful face, elegant temperament, and exuded an extraordinary aura.

"You are here too, Feng Qingcheng." The woman said calmly, "It seems that the fate between us is really unavoidable."

Feng Qingcheng's pupils shrank slightly, and she looked at the woman in front of her in surprise. "Who are you? How do you know my name?"

The woman smiled slightly, "My name is Yan Ling, and I am the master of this temple. And you, Feng Qingcheng, are the one I have been waiting for."

As soon as Yan Ling finished speaking, the room suddenly became foggy, and a strange energy wave filled the air. Feng Qingcheng couldn't help but feel dizzy, and her body began to become weak.

She reached out and grabbed the bookshelf beside her, trying to maintain her consciousness. But at this moment, she found that Ye Wuchen had fallen to the ground without her knowing when, and was obviously also affected by this force.

"What did you do to us?" Feng Qingcheng asked through gritting her teeth.

Yan Ling smiled faintly, "This is just a small beginning. You will soon understand
