Chapter 1164: Two Phoenix Eggs
"Can you sense that, Shizhu?"
Feng Shizhu nodded slightly. "Two phoenixes have just met their end, both of whom are direct descendants of my fire phoenix race. I can feel their souls are slowly withering away, so they won't be able to undergo their rebirth process. If their souls completely disappear, they will also not be able to enter the reincarnation circle, and their presence will disappear completely from this universe unless a miracle happens to them."
"Unfortunately, we are only soul remnants bound to this realm, so we can't possibly help them." Feng Bingyu uttered those words with deep sadness. Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
Feng Shizhu then closed her eyes again. "Fate predetermines the lives and deaths of all living beings, and we are powerless to defy it. Anyway, Feng Haoyan and the others' souls are getting stronger, and they will probably wake up soon."
"Even if they wake up again, there is nothing we can do. We are all dead, and we are just waiting for the time for our souls to disappear completely; only then can we enter eternal sleep." Both phoenixes released regretful sighs before returning to their sleep.

The atmosphere in the last safe zone became really bad, and everyone's expression looked gloomy after Feng Tian committed suicide by taking Feng Bing'er with him, especially Ling Xi's and Ling Yun's close friends.
For the past month, they all thought that Xiao Xiao would die, like in the three prophecies, so they always focused their attention on her. However, the outcome changed because she was still alive, and Feng Bing'er died in her place, which fulfilled the second prophecy.
Ling Xi and the others were horrified to imagine what would happen next, especially if Ling Yun found out about Feng Bing'er's death. The third prophecy explicitly predicted that darkness would envelop the universe, leading to the disappearance of many realms. They had tried their best to prevent that, but fate said otherwise, and the third prophecy would soon become true.
Feng Ruxue prostrated herself weakly at the previous location of Feng Tian and Feng Bing'er, and tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes. She never thought that her father would do such a thing; he was so cruel to bring her mother along in his suicide.
Feng Ling'er stood still behind her cousin, and her expression was filled with shock. Feng Tian and Feng Bing'er were still alive and well a while ago, but the situation changed in less than five minutes, and both of them were now dead.
Feng Yujie tightly hugged her husband and sobbed loudly, her emotions chaotic and her body trembling uncontrollably. She felt sad, devastated, and disappointed because Feng Tian did something so unexpected by taking Feng Bing'er to die with him.
Feng Gaoxin hugged his wife while rubbing her back. He never anticipated that his brother would do such a bizarre action, and they didn't notice that Feng Tian had succumbed to feelings of jealousy and envy.
Behind them, Gu Changsheng and the other male phoenixes couldn't say anything, and their eyes were glued to the explosion marks left by Feng Tian's previous actions.
Just as they were mourning the deaths of Feng Tian and Feng Bing'er, Huang Lingzhu and several immortals suddenly appeared in front of them. The Time Lord stretched her hand forward and released her time Qi, confusing them. "Time Reversal!"
Ling Xi and the others looked ahead with wide eyes as they witnessed a miracle they could never have imagined before. The earlier explosion resurfaced before their eyes, albeit in reverse. In a few seconds, Feng Tian and Feng Bing'er appeared in front of them, but their bodies fell to the ground, shocking everyone who watched the miracle.
Huang Lingzhu withdrew her Qi back and looked at them. "I am not omnipotent, and this is all I can do for them. I can save their bodies, but their souls are dead, and I cannot bring them back to life. Even though they are dead, they can at least undergo their rebirth process, and they will be born as new individuals in a few years. It's just that you have to prepare for the worst, especially when Ling Yun returns. He will be furious after he learns of the death of the female phoenix, and I dare not imagine what will happen if his devil side takes over his consciousness. As the third prophecy says, the universe will be covered in darkness for a thousand years, and countless realms will be destroyed along with all their inhabitants."
"Can Sheng Ming bring them back to life?"
"No." Instead, Shiwang Zhizhu answered Ling Xi. "Sheng Ming does have the strongest and purest light element in this universe, but her abilities have nothing to do with the lives of living beings. Her title as the life goddess was given by mortals, and she does not have the ability to bring them back to life."
Huang Lingzhu then spoke to them. "The true life and death elements are hidden in the Chaos, and no one can obtain both. Even if Ling Yun succeeds in becoming the next primordial chaos and obtains chaos abilities, I am not sure that he will succeed in obtaining both."
Ling Xi wanted to ask Huang Lingzhu again, but a huge flame suddenly engulfed Feng Tian and Feng Bing'er's bodies and quickly burned them. In an hour, both of them had become ashes, but two big red eggs emerged from them.
"Phoenixes can never truly die. Their bodies will become ashes after they die, and two new eggs will emerge from their ashes. After a few years, their eggs will hatch, and new phoenixes will be born in this universe." Ling Xi murmured to herself as she looked at the two eggs.
Long Feng suddenly spoke. "It is the extraordinary ability of the phoenix race, known as Phoenix Nirvana. Unfortunately, it can only be used once in their life, and the phoenixes will not be able to use it again after their rebirth, so they will truly die if they die once more."
"You are right, little dragon phoenix. The phoenix is the most unique race in this universe thanks to their phoenix nirvana, which is their spare life." Huang Lingzhu then turned to Ling Xi. "Even though the female phoenix will become a new individual after her egg hatches, you can help her regain her past memories. Although it is difficult, you should be able to do it, Luxuria."
Ling Xi didn't think much about it, and she thought more about what would happen next. "Do you think Ling Yun will really go berserk and commit mass slaughter?"
"I don't have the answer to that, and the answer lies in Ling Yun's hands." Huang Lingzhu replied with a soft sigh. "His soul has already merged with Sheng Ming's soul, and she has tried her best to strengthen his life soul. As for now, his life soul is already equal to or maybe slightly stronger than his devil soul, but we both know that he tends to choose his devil side, so the final result of the third prophecy will depend on his decision."
"Will you stop Ling Yun?" This time, Wang Tianshi asked Huang Lingzhu.
Huang Lingzhu stared at Wang Tianshi for a while before shaking her head. "I will never stop Ling Yun even if he slaughters hundreds of thousands or even millions of living beings, especially since the living beings in this universe are several times more numerous than that. He was the man destined to stop the Chaos, and the Chaos would be unstoppable if he died. It doesn't matter to me if millions of living beings have to be sacrificed for the sake of the salvation of this universe, and I will support him for that because the cause of the Chaos' wrath is living creatures themselves."
"But—"
"You may think I am too cruel, but all living beings have been corrupted by their greed and jealousy, and they deserve to be exterminated." Xuanyuan Xue'er and the others scowled in response to that, but Huang Lingzhu then pointed at Feng Tian's egg. "If his jealousy and envy didn't blind him, then the second prophecy would never come true, right? I was born together with this universe, and this universe has become a part of me. Since they corrupted the universe and provoked the wrath of the Chaos, sacrifices must be made to save it, so I will never stop Ling Yun from slaughtering them. If any of you think of stopping him, I will kill that person myself."
After she said all that, Huang Lingzhu immediately disappeared from the place, followed by Shiwang Zhizhu and the other immortals.
Ling Xi and the others were utterly shocked by Huang Lingzhu's threat, but none of them had the ability to stop her. Not even the other immortals could stop her, let alone mortals like them. In the entire universe, only Long Hun, Huang Hao, and Ling Yun could stop her.
Although she also felt heavy after listening to Huang Lingzhu's words, Feng Ruxue did not want to think too much about it. She immediately got up and took her mother's egg to another area.
With a heavy heart, Feng Gaoxin let out a heavy sigh, released Feng Yujie from his embrace, and took Feng Tian's egg. 'What have you done, Big Brother? Your reckless actions will not only endanger our phoenix race, but you will also endanger the entire universe, especially since your actions will unleash the most terrifying creature in this universe.'
