Only after losing one's strength and experiencing how one could only lie there and do nothing would one know how important strength and freedom were to themselves.
It was only then that Feng Zhi finally experienced such a feeling, and now that she felt the energy that was returning to her body bit by bit, she naturally felt it exceptionally deeply.
She took a few deep breaths consecutively before opening her eyes. She first nuzzled Long Yan with her cheek, and then, like a spoiled little cat, Long Yan felt an unprecedented satisfaction in his heart when she rubbed against him.
They had all experienced what it was like to lose something and regain it.
However, one had lost his life and power, and the other had lost the one he loved the most.
Fortunately, everything was back to normal.
After thinking about it, Feng Zhi looked at Long Yan with an extremely gentle gaze. After staying quiet for a while, she said: "Long Yan, let go of me."
Long Yan was a little surprised.
As long as Feng Zhi was doing well, he would not go against Feng Zhi's wishes. Thus, although she did not feel that she had held onto Feng Zhi long enough, Long Yan still gently let go of Feng Zhi's hand.
Feng Zhi smiled at Long Yan.
She was supported by Long Yan to stand up, and leaned towards Long Yan. She originally wanted to kiss him on the cheek, but then realized that her current appearance was not very good, and stopped herself in her tracks.
Long Yan saw through the meaning behind Feng Zhi's actions and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He gently embraced Feng Zhi and, without waiting for Feng Zhi to move away, lowered his head and gently pressed it against Feng Zhi's lips.
After lightly rubbing Feng Zhi's lips, which had already lost its previous tender and watery allure, absorbed enough energy, Long Yan slowly moved backwards.
Feng Zhi smiled and shook her head at Long Yan.
She had said that Long Yan truly loved her.
Looking at her current appearance, even she would despise him if she saw him. However, Long Yan who was hugging and kissing her, was no different from how she was in the past.
It could only be said that true love was not only that beautiful skin.
Seeing that Long Yan had retreated, Feng Zhi also retreated a few steps.
Then, Long Yan saw a huge change suddenly occur in Feng Zhi's body.
Due to the ravaging of the tribulation lightning earlier, the skin all over Feng Zhi's body was practically completely destroyed, and it did not look at all like her usual fair and tender appearance at all, but instead became charred black everywhere.
But now, those charred black skin seemed to have lost all of its brilliance as it actually lightly trembled on Feng Zhi's body.
Feng Zhi only felt waves of itchiness on her body, as though, when this layer of scorched black skin moved, a piece of soft, white, tender, and rich in elasticity that was just like usual grew below him.
No woman could bear to wear such an ugly layer of skin.
Feng Zhi was no exception, so when she sensed the change in her body, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Not long after, that faint numbing sensation disappeared, and Feng Zhi could feel the liveliness emitted from her new skin.
Without hesitation, she lifted her hand to touch her own face. After grabbing that layer of skin that had lost its vitality long ago, she forcefully pulled it down …
While doing this, Feng Zhi reflexively thought of a movie she had seen on Earth.
In the movie, when the female demon in human skin showed her true form, wasn't her actions extremely similar to hers?
While thinking about this, Feng Zhi had already completely ripped off the layer of skin without any loopholes.
The sudden ease made her let out a light sigh of relief.
Feng Zhi stretched out her hand and looked at her skin that was even more crystal clear than before, and the corner of her lips couldn't help but curl into a light smile.
She turned her head to look at Long Yan, but before she could say anything to Long Yan, she saw that a layer of flame had suddenly appeared around her body. The temperature of the fire was extremely high, and the moment it appeared, the surrounding air became distorted because of it.
It seemed as if he had helped Feng Zhi put on a set of red clothes made of flames.
Nirvana Flame.
These words instantly appeared in Feng Zhi's mind.
Then, a pair of flaming wings suddenly spread out from Feng Zhi's back. As the flames around her body jumped more and more frequently, Feng Zhi could also feel a wave of energy surging into her body.
Phoenix Rebirth. Every time it underwent a tribulation, its strength would increase by an extreme degree.
Feng Zhi could now be considered to have successfully undergone a rebirth, so she naturally obtained some benefits.
The power that came forth was too rushed, causing Feng Zhi to have a feeling of unhappiness even if she did not spit it out. She could not help but raise her head, and let out a clear and loud voice towards the sky outside of the Bottomless Pit.
Screech …
This sound was naturally not enough to let Feng Zhi vent the excitement in her heart that came from her own strength.
At this time, she saw that the tribulation clouds had not dispersed.
Feng Zhi had already successfully passed through the tribulation lightning of the Infant Stage. Although the tribulation lightning had long since concealed itself in the lightning pool, the dark mass of tribulation clouds still hovered in the air, as if they were going to press down onto the ground.
A few flames of excitement suddenly ignited in Feng Zhi's eyes.
The tribulation clouds …
She had been tormented by the thunder tribulation until she truly died and came back to life. Now that she had finally successfully transcended the tribulation, and obtained even greater strength, how could she not teach this tribulation cloud a lesson?
Thinking about this, the fire feathers on Feng Zhi's back gently flapped.
Her body gradually rose into the air.
After flying a few meters in the air, Feng Zhi lowered her head to look at Long Yan, and softly said: "Wait for me."
Long Yan took a light breath.
He recalled the words Feng Zhi had said before she went through the tribulation to wait for her to return safely, but in the end, she had hugged Feng Zhi in such a deathly embrace …
However, even so, looking at Feng Zhi who seemed to have been reborn, Long Yan still gently nodded his head.
Then, she completely unfolded the fire feathers behind Feng Zhi. With a light flap, her figure had already flown out of the bottomless pit they had built.
At this moment, the people who had been standing guard outside the Mu Rong family's residence all this time saw something that they would never forget even after so many years had passed.
"Look, what is that!"
Those with sharp eyes noticed the abnormality first and then pointed at the place where the lightning had struck.
Hearing that, everyone looked in the direction that the man was pointing at.
He only saw that right at the center of the lightning and the clouds, a fire suddenly rose.
No, it was not a fire.
At first glance, it looked like a flame, but upon closer inspection, one could tell that something else seemed to be wrapped within the rising flames.
It seemed like …
"It's a person!"
Another person exclaimed.
This kind of scene was simply too magical. No one had ever seen such a wondrous scene in their entire lives. It was no wonder that so many people were so surprised.
