The Rise Of Purple Phoenix 37 Eira's Pas

"how do you know about my injuries?" Eira asked in a serious manner while releasing her cultivation and pressuring Lloyd.

She was staying here to heal her injuries and hide from her enemy while in her weakened stage. As soon as Lloyd mentioned her injuries, she raised her guard against him.

Seeing Eira, Lloyd wasn't as scared as when he first saw her. Before he thought, Eira had the power of rank 7 beast but seeing that Eira could only use the power of peak rank 3 beasts, he calmed down.

Rank 3 beast's power was equal to the power of a sky stage cultivation.

"intuition" Lloyd said with a smile.

"if that's really is intuition. Then that is one h.e.l.l of intuition" Eira said while she sighed and decreased her guard a little.

Lloyd at Eira in an interesting way and asked, "Eira if you don't mind, would you tell me how you got injured"

Lloyd was interested to know how a rank 7 beast like Eira got hurt.

Eira looked at Lloyd while thinking of the past and said, "kid, do you know how long did I had to wait to talk to someone before you?".

Hearing her Lloyd was confused.

"I was staying here for 1100 years. Since you are my first guest in all these years, I will tell you my story" Eira said.

"You see, I was from a different world. A realm higher than this one. This world's highest rank which you called as heaven stage was just like normal mortals in my world"

Hearing Eira, Lloyd was shocked. Heaven stage cultivators were the strongest cultivators in the world. They were only myths and legends. From what he knows, n.o.body has ever seen a heaven stage cultivator and lived. they only like to live in secret.

But now, Eira was telling him that in her world, Heaven stage cultivators are weak being. But then when he remembered her rank 7 cultivation, he calmed down.

Seeing Lloyd's shocked expression, Eira was little pleased inside. It hit her pride when weak cultivator like Lloyd found out about her injuries just by looking at her.

"the cultivation stage till heaven stage are stages to cultivate Qi. After that, they must start cultivation of the soul and then the law.

They must understand the law of the fabric of the world and learn to control it." Eira said.

Lloyd was excited hearing about new stages in cultivation, he asked, "what are the stage after heaven stage called?"

Hearing his question, Eira smiled as said, "kid, you don't need to know about that now. The only thing you need to know is the cultivation till you reach the peak of Heaven stage. at the last stage, you will go through the lightning tribulation. only after you managed to cross the tribulation safely, then you will ascend to a higher plane. If you fail then you will be dead and turned into ash by the lightning"

Lloyd's excitement about new stage washed away as he heard about lightening tribulation.

"Is there a safer way to cross the tribulation?" Lloyd asked as he was scared that he may die in the tribulation.

"NO," Eira said. Her voice had a hint of happiness in it as she said it.

"okay," Lloyd said but he was little down inside. then he looked at Eira and said, "you don't have to be happy about me dying in the tribulation".

"HA HA HA ... you are a funny kid," Eira said while looking at Lloyd's expression and laughed.

'I will find a way to cross the tribulation safely' Lloyd thought as he decided in his mind.

"Eira, you still haven't said how you got injured?" Lloyd asked. All the talk about cultivation stages, tribulation diverted his original question.

"okay," Eira said.

"there was a war. We phoenixes fought against the snakes. They were conflicts before us from the dawn of time but now it reached ma.s.sive scale war. The war is leaning towards us. We could have exterminated those nasty snakes but the emperor of snakes somehow broke through and reached rank 8 stage. which s.h.i.+fted entire stage of the war towards those snakes.

At last, I and my brother couldn't take it and challenged the snake emperor, Ophiophagus. But our combined power was no match against him as we were almost killed.

We use a secret skill to escape and came to take shelter from him here. Normally he wouldn't suspect us being here.

We siblings were separated when we descended. I was been here for 1100 years. My injuries were healed but Ophiophagus's poison still torments me now and can't recover my cultivation" Eira said as she retold her past.

Lloyd was shocked hearing her story. She was rank 7 beast but she was defeated. Then how powerful would be that rank 8 snake emperor be?
