Dance of the Butterfly
Rumble!
Dark clouds gathered in the sky. Countless bolts of lightning were like pythons as they wantonly intertwined within the clouds. Soon after, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm instantly streaked across the sky and violently smashed into the snowstorm below.
Tsk tsk tsk!
However, the snowstorm was extremely powerful. The bolt of lightning that streaked across the sky only left behind traces of lightning in the snowstorm before it was completely annihilated.
Boom boom boom!
The instant this bolt of lightning descended, three more bolts of lightning continuously descended from the dark clouds. The bolts of lightning that descended this time were much more powerful than the first, regardless of whether it was in terms of quantity or quality. They were so numerous that it seemed like a prison of lightning.
After all, the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly possessed the bloodline of an ancient sacred beast. It was extremely powerful. With a sharp cry, the surrounding snowstorm became even more terrifying. A thick layer of snow formed in the sky above, completely blocking the descending bolts of lightning outside the barrier.
"It's blocked the second lightning tribulation." Zhuowen muttered to himself. His gaze was filled with excitement.
"With the powerful bloodline of the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly, it shouldn't be too difficult to overcome this lightning tribulation. However, I'm worried about Mufeng …" Moyan and Bai Yan suddenly said in a somewhat worried voice.
Zhuowen nodded and said, "We have to constantly pay attention to the surrounding movements. It's rare for this little guy to have the opportunity to break through to the Demon Emperor level. We have to protect him."
Hearing those words, Moyan and Bai Yan opened their mouths and smiled in embarrassment. However, they did not say anything else. Actually, they had originally wanted to directly ignore the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly and leave this place as soon as possible. However, since Zhuowen had said so, they were embarrassed to object.
As for the originally imprisoned demoness, she suddenly said to Zhuowen, "Human, release me. I have a way to protect your safety."
"Oh?
You have a way to protect our safety? "Zhuowen's eyes narrowed as he sneered. It was as if he had heard a great joke.
Zhuo Wen sneered in his heart. Naturally, he did not believe the demoness's words. She had been shouting at him to kill him, but now, she was saying that she wanted to protect them.
Seeing Zhuowen like this, the demoness was a little anxious. She hurriedly said, "I really have a way. In the mausoleum, we are not the only demon soldiers. There are demon kings above us, but they all live in a secret realm. The outside world has only sent three teams of demon soldiers. Let me go, and I will take you to that secret realm."
Hearing the words of the female demon, Zhuowen, Moyan and Bai Yan revealed an astonished expression. They did not expect that there would be other Demon Soldiers in the tomb. Moreover, from what the female demon had said, there was a Demon King above the Demon Soldiers and even a secret realm. It seemed that this tomb was not simple.
Of course, what Zhuowen was curious about was what kind of existence that Demon King was. To be able to become the King of Demon Soldiers, he should at least be a high-level Demon Sovereign. That was an extremely terrifying existence.
"Oh?
Didn't you say that you would rather die than take us to the enemy's side?
Why did you suddenly change your mind?
Moreover, that secret realm is where you demon soldiers live. There must be demon soldiers inside. If we follow you into the secret realm, won't we be seeking our own deaths? "Zhuowen sneered.
However, the female demon shook her head and said rather seriously, "No, you won't be seeking your own deaths after entering the secret realm. On the contrary, you will be entertained by our Demon King because you brought an existence like the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly."
The words of the female demon immediately confused Zhuowen, Moyan and Bai Yan. They were somewhat puzzled by the words of the female demon. Could it be that their Demon King would entertain them just because of the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly? What kind of logic was that?
The female demon naturally saw the disbelief on the faces of Zhuowen and Bai Yan. She continued, "Because our great Demon King's true form is the powerful Profound Soul Ice Butterfly."
"A demon of the same race?"
Zhuowen, Moyan and Bai Yan were startled. They finally understood why the female demon said that the Demon King would entertain them. It turned out that this was the reason.
Demon Emperors, compared to human warriors, were extremely rare. Especially those with extremely powerful bloodlines, their numbers were probably even rarer. It was very rare to encounter a powerful Demon Emperor of the same race. If they did, generally, powerful Demon Emperors would treat the younger generation of the same race well.
"How do we know if this is a lie that you weaved?
After all, if you used this information as bait to lure us into the secret realm and then let the demon soldiers inside kill us, wouldn't our sacrifice be in vain? "Moyan and Bai Yan frowned slightly.
The female demon was somewhat anxious. She said, "I don't need to lie to you about this. You should be hiding from the master of the Nine Dragons Formation, right?
Now that the entrance to the tomb has been sealed, hiding in the secret realm is your only choice. "
"Let's wait for the little guy to pass the lightning tribulation." Zhuowen suddenly said after pondering for a while.
The female demon's tone and attitude did not seem to be lying. Therefore, Zhuowen was prepared to wait for the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly to pass the lightning tribulation and successfully advance to the Demon Emperor realm before making a decision.
The female demon nodded. She was not in a hurry. After all, the reason why she changed her mind was mainly because of the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly. Otherwise, she would be too lazy to pay attention to the two humans in front of her. Thinking of the old Demon King in the secret realm who was nearing the end of his lifespan, the female demon looked at the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly that was about to advance to the Demon Emperor realm. Her eyes were filled with a different kind of brilliance.
"The last lightning tribulation."
About the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the Lightning Tribulation was about to come to an end. The dark clouds in the sky began to slowly rotate, forming a black spiral. In the middle of the black spiral clouds, a bolt of lightning as thick as a water bucket suddenly struck down. Below the dark clouds, the bolt of lightning transformed into a huge lightning snake. It opened its bloody mouth and roared as it charged towards the snowstorm below.
Rumble!
The last lightning tribulation was indeed powerful. The barrier formed by the snowstorm was directly shattered like tofu. The lightning snake continued to sink with irresistible force and directly shattered the snowstorm.
Boom!
Amidst the lightning glow, a graceful figure was faintly discernible within the snowstorm. Soon after, Zhuowen and the rest saw the graceful figure extend her slender jade-like hand. A wave of bone-chilling demonic energy gushed out and formed a glossy ice mirror in front of her.
Bang!
The huge lightning snake slammed into the ice mirror. It merely caused the latter to sway for a moment before it was completely blocked outside the ice mirror. After a brief moment, the lightning snake also completely dissipated. At this moment, the lightning tribulation had completely disappeared.
The instant the lightning tribulation disappeared, the gazes of Zhuowen and the rest landed on the graceful figure. Soon after, a trace of astonishment was revealed on their faces.
This was because the figure that had appeared before them was no longer the butterfly-like Profound Soul Ice Butterfly from before. Instead, it was a slender young lady.
This young lady had a petite and exquisite figure. Her neck, arms, chest and waist were covered with fluffy soft fur, which just happened to cover the private parts of a woman. Her white cheeks were tinged with rosy red, just like an exquisite porcelain doll. In particular, there were two thin antennae on her head, which made her look exceptionally adorable.
In addition, there was a pair of thin transparent wings on the young lady's back. They seemed to be formed from ice and snow, appearing just like an exquisite sculpture. They were extremely beautiful.
Swoosh!
The thin wings on the young lady's back flapped and immediately flew towards Zhuowen. When she arrived in front of Zhuowen, under the latter's astonished gaze, she threw herself into Zhuowen's embrace. Her head with antennae continuously rubbed against Zhuowen just like before. Her pair of beautiful eyes were filled with a sense of dependence towards Zhuowen.
"Hee hee!
Master, I have finally transformed into a human. In the past, I was unable to hug you. Now, I can finally hug you. Hee hee. "A melodious voice like that of an oriole was emitted from the young lady's mouth.
"… …"
Zhuowen was somewhat speechless as he looked at the young lady rubbing against his chest. He knew that this should be the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly that had transformed into a human. In the past, when this little fellow had not transformed into a human, he did not feel anything when she rubbed against his chest. But now, in her human form, she was actually such a small and exquisite young lady. Using this posture to rub against his chest, this feeling made Zhuowen feel a little strange.
Hurriedly dodging the exceptionally passionate young lady, Zhuowen stared at the young lady and said: "You are the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly that has transformed into a Demon Emperor?"
The young lady was clearly somewhat dissatisfied with Zhuowen's dodging action. She pouted and said: "That's right!
I am the Profound Soul Ice Butterfly. Master, didn't you stroke my head in the past?
Why aren't you touching it now? "
"… …"
Hearing the young lady's lovable snort that contained hidden bitterness, Zhuowen was once again speechless. He could only awkwardly smile and say: "Today is different from the past. Do you have a name?
Tell me about it. "
Zhuowen's words diverted the young lady's attention. She giggled and said: "Of course I do. My name is Wu Die. In the future, master can just call me Die 'er."
"Wu Die?"
Zhuowen muttered as he nodded in agreement. Soon after, he solemnly said: "The commotion caused by your tribulation is very big. We have to leave this place as soon as possible."
Wu Die nodded. She also knew a little about the outside world, so she was not too surprised by Zhuowen's words.
At this moment, the demoness suddenly arrived in front of Wu Die. She placed her right hand in front of her chest and said in an extremely respectful manner, "Esteemed Lord, can you let Yao Ji take you to the secret realm?"
"You are …" Wu Die tilted her head and asked in astonishment.
Zhuowen briefly introduced the demoness's identity. Only then did Wu Die nod. However, her eyes fell on Zhuowen. She grabbed Zhuowen's arm and giggled: "I will listen to master. Wherever you go, I will go."
The demoness nodded. Her gaze fell on Zhuowen as she respectfully said: "Yao Ji hopes that everyone can make a trip to the secret realm. There, no one will disturb you. At the same time, it will be the best shelter for everyone."
"Zhuowen?" Mo Yan and Bai Yan looked at Zhuowen, letting the latter make the decision.
"Then let's make a trip to the secret realm." After thinking for a moment, Zhuowen gritted his teeth and said.
He knew that he had nowhere to go in this tomb. He could enter the secret realm to take a look. After all, the demoness's gaze was quite sincere.
"Then everyone, follow me."
