Chapter 716: Breaking Nirvana
In terms of cultivation, Mei Gongzi certainly couldn't match her opponent, but the Mysterious Circles of Heaven was more about comprehension of space and divine intent; it wasn’t particularly taxing in terms of divine consciousness and bloodline power, especially now that she was at the tenth order. Meanwhile, Cao Yuwei's full-force attacks consumed a great deal. Combined with the energy he'd already expended earlier in the battle, he was actually burning through his reserves much faster than Mei Gongzi.
Although Great Demon Kings had strong regenerative abilities, it was hard to say who would come out on top if this continued.
For Mei Gongzi, who had only recently stepped into godhood, achieving this much in the evaluation spoke volumes of her potential.
......
"Don't rush to attack. Once the situation stabilizes, use the Mysterious Circles of Heaven to wear him down. The longer this drags on, the more it will work in our favor. The Emperors will start to see you differently, not just as someone with talent and strength, but as someone with a calm and steady demeanor. In this way, the White Tiger Demon Emperor will surely support you without reservation. At the very least, your safety will be guaranteed."
......
The more she fought, the more Mei Gongzi understood and internalized Tang San's guidance, instinctively following his instructions—calm and composed.
Cao Yuwei made several more attempts to attack, but each time, Mei Gongzi easily deflected them, maintaining her distance and never giving him the opportunity to unleash his full power.
This frustrated Cao Yuwei immensely, as he constantly felt like he had the strength but couldn't use it effectively.
As a Great Demon King fighting under the watchful eyes of the Emperors, Cao Yuwei felt his cheeks burn with shame as the battle dragged on like this.
Before the battle began, he had assured the Undying Demon Emperor that he would end the fight quickly. But now, even winning seemed uncertain, let alone doing it quickly.
The Undying Demon Emperor, standing atop his Celestial Pillar, maintained a calm expression, watching the battle quietly. No one knew what this powerhouse, second only to the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor, was thinking. But a closer glance would reveal that his gaze was more focused on Mei Gongzi than on Cao Yuwei.
Cao Yuwei didn't continue his pursuit; with the combination of Mysterious Circles of Heaven and teleportation, he couldn't lock onto Mei Gongzi at all. It wasn't that he hadn't considered using the Phoenix True Fire Domain again, but although the domain's power was immense, it also consumed a massive amount of his energy.
If he tried to maintain both the Phoenix Armor and the Phoenix True Fire Domain simultaneously, he wouldn't be able to last long. If it proved ineffective, he would likely lose.
What to do? This was the most troublesome issue Cao Yuwei faced at the moment. His opponent was so elusive that he couldn't catch her, and losing this battle was not an option!
The Emperors were all watching, and his mindset began to shift, growing increasingly anxious.
At that moment, the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor turned to look at him, causing the White Tiger Demon Emperor to feel his heart skip a beat. The divine consciousness and bloodline power he had gathered suddenly clashed for an instant, and the white light on his body flared up, but it seemed to falter slightly.
"YOU!" The White Tiger Demon Emperor let out an angry roar, glaring furiously in the direction of the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor.
And at that moment, something happened that no one had expected.
The phoenix wings behind the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor had already spread wide, and he was ready to take action himself. But suddenly, the Immortal Blood Phoenix flying toward Mei Gongzi let out a miserable cry in mid-air.
The scarlet phoenix hurtling toward Mei Gongzi suddenly plummeted from the sky, crashing directly to the ground.
At that moment, Mei Gongzi's Celestial Plume had vanished, and she stood with her hands clasped together in front of her chest, eyes closed, as if in prayer. A unique aura radiated from her.
It was an aura of majesty!
Even the Emperors present couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on their scalps when they sensed this majesty.
The Celestial Fox Demon Emperor let out a snort, and white mist rose above his head.
The sudden reversal left all the Emperors present in silence. What had just happened?
A Great Demon King's all-out sacrificial strike, with its terrifying ability to attack both the physical body and divine consciousness, was something even an Emperor like the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, who had only recently entered the Emperor's realm, would have to handle with caution, lest the terrifying Immortal Blood Phoenix burn their very essence.
Yet, such a powerful attack suddenly and inexplicably stopped, and the Immortal Blood Phoenix plummeted from the sky as if in free fall, crashing hard into the ground. In an instant, blood-red flames erupted, scattering in all directions.
Above the transformed Immortal Blood Phoenix, a phoenix phantom began to coalesce from the dispersing flames, and the deep scarlet fire wrapping Cao Yuwei returned to its golden-red hue.
However, that phoenix phantom, barely halfway formed, once again dissipated, causing the phoenix flames on Cao Yuwei's body to weaken.
How is this possible...
All the Emperors present now understood what was happening—Cao Yuwei was trying to reconstruct his divine consciousness, and the phoenix phantom forming above him was a manifestation of it. In other words, the reason he had fallen from the sky just now was that his divine consciousness had been severely injured, almost to the point of annihilation!
He had already activated the power of Nirvana Rebirth to restore his divine consciousness, but shockingly, the reconstruction process had failed!
