Heaven's Devourer Chapter 1377: Awakening Memories

Chapter 1377: Awakening Memories

Day after day, year after year. Another 100 years pa.s.sed.

Wu Yu's immortal spirit and physical body had reached the level of a 4-realm immortal lord. Moving forward, improvements would be relatively harder. Therefore, for these 100 years, his focus was mainly on dealing with the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord and the frequency increased. The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord rarely had time for any breaks. Whenever she awoke, she would be hit with the Spirit Chaser Art again. This drove her crazy.

"Even if you want me to carry your child, you don't have to resort to this!" She was fuming. When she woke up and had just spoken, Wu Yu used the Spirit Chaser Art and knocked her unconscious again.

Wu Yu was anxious as well. A long time had pa.s.sed - had she really vanished for good? Now that his cultivation level had increased and his immortal spirit was stronger, he still couldn't find any traces of Nangong Wei within the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord's immortal spirit. She was another person entirely.

When the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord woke up, she cursed immediately and struggled vehemently. She wanted to destroy the destinable immortal treasures that Wu Yu had used to hold her down, but Wu Yu had put away her Nine-Colored Chaos Spike and Divine Pearl of Lesser Control. With just her strength, this was an uphill task. Wu Yu naturally wouldn't dare to form a blood bond with the Great Void Immortal Treasure. Otherwise, the Provenance Phoenix Empress might become aware.

Within the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da, Wu Yu worked hard for 1,100 years. In the outside world, 11 years had pa.s.sed.

On this day, Wu Yu received an Immortal Message Talisman from the Ancient Ink Camp. It was from Xu Zidong. They had found a strange thing and couldn't identify it after a long time. Subsequently, they recalled that Wu Yu had the doppelganger mystique and therefore thought of asking Wu Yu to send his doppelgangers in to take a look.

After which, he received a stellar diagram that marked the exact location. This was a place close to where they had been together previously. Therefore, Wu Yu had a rough sense of where it was. Having not made any breakthroughs with the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord and having already obtained a ninth-grade Mark of an Immortal King, he had nothing else on hand. Therefore, Wu Yu set out immediately.

A day outside would be 100 days in the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da. During the time Wu Yu was travelling, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord would have a break for several days.

"Something strange? What could it be?" It had been a long time since Wu Yu went out. After he exited, he steered his Somersault Cloud and moved swiftly to the faraway place.

As for the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi, they had continued to improve under Wu Yu's Imparting. After these past thousand years, they were approaching the Immortal Lord Realm. They, too, shared the experiences of 9-realm immortal lords. Most likely, it wouldn't take long for them to become great a.s.sistants to Wu Yu.

Wu Yu was pondering about the strange thing.

All of a sudden, he detected movement within the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da!

He entered it immediately.

He knew the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was behind it.

However, the time outside was much slower than the inside. Between Wu Yu detecting movements and then entering, a certain amount of time had pa.s.sed on the inside.

When he entered, he was surprised that the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord had broken free from the restraints of the Mysterious Sky Treasured PaG.o.da, the Spirit Suppressing Chains, the Spirit Shattering Whip, and the Frost Spirit's Threads. It seemed like she had been preparing for this for a long time!

She was waiting for Wu Yu to leave before taking action! She sure could endure and probably had plotted it for some time.

Immediately after, she was probably going to break free from the restraints of the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da and escape from this place. This might be her only hope.

If she escaped from this place, she probably could contact the Provenance Phoenix Empress and Wu Yu would be in a predicament.

Although time flowed faster on the inside, Wu Yu was quick to react too. She was destroying the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da with all her might. If the Nine-Colored Chaos Spike were still in her hands, she would probably be able to break a hole in the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da with her strength. Fortunately, the Nine-Colored Chaos Spike was still with Wu Yu.

However, it was still a close shave. The direction where the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord had chosen to attack was where the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi were cultivating silently. The wall that was erected within the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da was surprisingly destroyed by her!

Wu Yu entered when the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was overjoyed. She thought she could escape, but when she broke the wall, she realized that she had chosen the wrong direction. Instead, she found a man and a woman on the other end!

The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was stumped.

Wu Yu was like an ant on a hot plate. If she chose to continue attacking, the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi would be in danger. He dashed before both of them, controlled the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da to isolate them, and stood right before the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord.

"How dare you! Trying to escape?" Wu Yu bemoaned and intimidated the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord, who had just regained her freedom, to take two steps back.

He was prepared for battle and charged towards her immediately. Even though she was still in the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da, she would still be dangerous if she wasn't restrained.

Wu Yu went with the Spirit Chaser Art to shake her up first. However, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord looked confused instead, didn't retaliate, and was struck by Wu Yu's Spirit Chaser Art directly. Immediately after, Wu Yu used the Frost Spirit's Threads and the other destinable immortal treasures to immobilize her. He also added a few others for safety. He had been a little lax previously. Otherwise, she wouldn't have broken free so easily. After all, more than a thousand years had pa.s.sed and she had never acted like this.

Wu Yu restrained her, tossed her to the corner, and remarked furiously, "I'm sorry that you failed this time. You won't have the same opportunity in the future."

The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was acting strange and her eyes were fleeting. She looked towards Wu Yu in shock and said, her voice shuddering, "Who are they.... Why are they so familiar? I think I know their names...."

"What did you say?"

Wu Yu paled. He knew that letting her know about them would bring trouble. If she left in the future and sought them out based on their looks, she might just find the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi. By doing so, she would also locate him.

Moreover, she even said she knew their names!

Could it be that she had the memories of Nangong Wei? Just that they weren't awakened?

She became agitated and tears welled up in her eyes. Staring at Wu Yu with her beautiful eyes, she said, "They are the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi. It's from her memories! The companion phoenix egg that I just a.s.similated recently! Why would they be here? Shouldn't they be in the mortal domain?"

Wu Yu was astounded. Why would she know their names? Then he....

At this moment, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord's eyes widened in disbelief.

Wu Yu locked eyes with her, and from her eyes, he could see that perhaps she had just recalled many memories....

This was terrible.

Who would have thought that such changes would happen after she just had a glance of the Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi.

Just as he had expected, she said, "I saw something. In a place filled with snow, a place known as the Clear Sky of Shushan. I was still young and I gave you a bag. There was a Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column in it.... No. That isn't me. That's the phoenix egg....

“That isn't you. You aren’t the Hundred Thousand Sword..... No! NO! You are Wu Yu! Your name is Wu Yu! I even saw you at the sea of blue fire! Your real ident.i.ty is Wu Yu! You are the one who that phoenix egg knows!"

Her face was turning red from agitation and her body was shuddering. She stared daggers at Wu Yu and finally found out about his real ident.i.ty. This blow to her was undoubtedly immense. This was because Wu Yu was still taking the appearance of the Snow Region Immortal Lord, but she was certain that Wu Yu was the Hundred Thousand Swords Immortal Lord. She had never expected the Hundred Thousand Swords Immortal Lord to be related to someone she saw at the sea of blue fire. Then she wanted to keep Wu Yu by her side but realized that Wu Yu had escaped after she had gotten the eighth-grade Mark of an Immortal King.

After which, she forgot about him. At that time, Wu Yu had said that he was the benefactor of that companion phoenix egg.

Wu Yu was frustrated now. He had not expected her to realize his true ident.i.ty. It was even more impossible for him to let her go now, or he would really be in deep trouble.

He scoffed, "Did you hit your head? Who's Wu Yu, the Full Moon of Nanshan, or Ye Xixi? These two are my brother and sister. Just what are you babbling about? Did you get brain damage after being hit by my Spirit Chaser Art too frequently?"

The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord was in a daze.

She lowered her head and kept shaking it. All of a sudden, she lifted her head, eyes wide, and shouted, "Wu Yu! Stop denying it. I've recalled everything. The name of that phoenix egg was Nangong Wei, and you are her childhood lover! I've recalled everything. You let her down eventually and went on with another girl! And you ascended to the sky palaces on your own! When you finally met me and learned that I've killed her somehow, you wanted to revive her, right? I finally understand your real objective for capturing me! No, how could you make such progress so quickly? You haven't even been an immortal for 100 years! This isn't possible! This isn't possible!"

"Screw you!"

Wu Yu used the Spirit Chaser Art again and followed it with Fleeting Immortal Dreams to put her to sleep. He should have done so earlier. Otherwise, she would start recalling more memories. What she had recalled now was already deadly for Wu Yu.

The Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord probably understood everything now.

Ming Long pouted and said, "Like I've said, kid, you are playing with fire. Don't forget that the one behind her is the Provenance Phoenix Empress."

Wu Yu heaved a sigh and said, "Perhaps it's even more impossible for me to let her go now. I can either kill her or imprison her forever. However, these options are impossible. We will have to leave this place, and the Floating Dreams PaG.o.da won't be able to fool the Provenance Phoenix Empress."

"What do you think we should do, then?"

Wu Yu answered, "We have a few thousand years left to find a solution. If she has such clear memories of Nangong Wei, perhaps she's still changing and Nangong Wei might still be alive. This also suggests that Nangong Wei still has some sort of grasp over her."

"You are right. We can only let things be for now."

Wu Yu intended to let her sleep longer this time. Perhaps she would forget about this once she woke up. At the same time, he added more restrictions and constantly used Fleeting Immortal Dreams to freeze her and prevent her from escaping again.

After which, he continued heading towards Xu Zidong. He wanted to see what Xu Zidong and the rest had found, before settling the matters of Nangong Wei and the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord.

In the journey, the Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord woke up once. The moment she opened her eyes, she cursed, "Despicable and unscrupulous man! You've followed another woman, you have no right to touch me! You even want me to carry your children! I'm not that phoenix egg! Die!"

Although she had recalled Wu Yu's true ident.i.ty, she still thought Wu Yu was "a.s.saulting" her whenever she was put to sleep.

Wu Yu didn't say a word before sending her to a deep slumber once again. However, looking at how things were, she probably recalled these memories clearly.
