I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 925

Chapter 166 Reunion
Verafia cried in Fiya’s arms for a while. Fiya wiped the tears from her eyes and somewhat choked, raising her small face:
“Then, Vera sister, are you a goddess now?”
“Yes. That’s the Goddess of Life…”
Verafia’s tender hand stretched out, and between the shimmering, magnificent golden flames, an emerald-like crystalline luster flowed, overflowing with the power of life. In a flash, a gorgeous long dress condensed on her delicate body.
Having merged with the divine spark of life, just like the former Goddess of Blazing Flame, her demonic power transformed. Whether it was her body and soul, or the essence of life itself, she had transcended the mortal realm and become a divine being of life. Her posture was sacred and noble, with a pure color that made it impossible to harbor any blasphemous thoughts.
“However, it’s just the preliminary fusion with the divine spark. Not to mention comparing with Goddess Siloslise, even I in the past couldn’t compare.”
Her gold eyes slightly gazed at the shimmering life divine power on her fingertips, covered by the exquisite long gloves, Verafia said with some regret.
It was only a preliminary fusion with the laws, giving birth to the divine power of life, which was far from comparable to true divine power.
Moreover, Verafia had not yet completely mastered the authority over life. Even her incomplete self when Lichen had achieved it was still beyond her current state.
According to Verafia’s estimation, she was now capable of defeating ordinary legends, but still no match for true immortal beings who had touched the realm of deities.
“Then, Vera sister…” Fiya grabbed her hand and raised her head with concern.
“Ah, this is nothing. How can the authority of deities be fused so easily? It was I who was too greedy.”
Verafia smiled, her golden eyes shifting to Fiya, and said, “No matter what, let’s go find Ig and Little Fei quickly. I hope they are safe.”
Upon saying this, she couldn’t help but reveal a hint of worry. During the time she was merging with the divine spark of life, the projection on the outside world might not have been much, not exceeding an hour. But who knew what accidents might have occurred?
Seeing Fiya nodding vigorously, Verafia waved her slender hand, and the divine power of life surged out, opening the space where the Tree of Life was located.
…
…
Her jade-like feet stepped onto the silk-like carpet paved with the brilliance of life. Verafia’s gaze fell upon Fiya, who was following closely behind her.
Speaking of which, it wasn’t just Verafia who had absorbed the divine spark. She could feel that Fiya’s strength had also improved significantly.
When she touched the Tree of Life, Fiya had acted as the carrier of the Light of Life, which represented the power of the laws. Even though it had only merged into her body, it had still greatly improved her strength.
Although she was still a considerable distance from becoming a legend, the realm of Sacred Domain was something that even many supremely talented individuals struggled to advance in their entire lives. For Fiya, who had at least advanced a small realm, it was already a rare and valuable achievement.
“Moreover, this little girl, the Light of Life has purified a lot of her bloodline as well. In the future, it’s not impossible for her to become a legendary Phoenix.”
Thinking of such a matter, Verafia’s lips curved slightly, and she couldn’t help but reveal a joyful expression.
Although they had only spent a little over a month together, in this short month, Fiya had not only treated her like an intimate older sister but had also helped her countless times. Seeing Fiya have the chance to become a legend, Verafia was naturally happy for her.
And also, within the dream of the Goddess of Life…
“Vera sister?” Fiya raised her head.
“I wanted to say thank you, Fiya…”
Verafia’s eyes shifted, and she smiled sweetly, “If it weren’t for Fiya, I wouldn’t have obtained the divine spark of life so easily.”
“Eh, I clearly didn’t do anything, and I couldn’t help Vera sister at all…” Fiya looked at her somewhat helplessly.
The young girl’s golden eyes blinked charmingly, revealing a gentle smile.
Even if Fiya didn’t know, she wouldn’t judge them. In the dream of the goddess, Goddess Siloslise had stripped away all her laws of life. Without Fiya, she wouldn’t have been able to ignite the phoenix’s nirvana fire so easily.
With a gentle wave of her jade-like hand, the path ahead was cleared. The return journey was much easier than the journey here, with not a single Abyssal Demonic Beast appearing to obstruct her.
Although, for the current Verafia, this abyssal filth was nothing, but along the way, not even a single thread of abyssal demonic energy was seen, as if it had been wiped away, still leaving Verafia somewhat astonished.
“Who could have wiped away the Abyss…”
The young girl’s divine sense was released, and she discovered that the giant tree they were in had regained its vitality, and the Sea of Abyss that had once soaked half of the tree’s body had also dried up. She murmured softly, a look of astonishment appearing in her brilliant golden eyes.
The Sea of Abyss could not have been wiped away by Verafia’s divine power. Let alone her current self, even true deities, or even existences like Herafir and Siloslise, who were God Kings, couldn’t do it. Otherwise, how could Siloslise have withered in the Abyss?
“That’s right. Back then, in the dream’s depths, it was a beam of light that startled this young lady.”
Verafia suddenly recalled. She should have been lost in the dream of life for a longer time, but it was that beam of pure white light that awakened her, allowing her to escape the cycle of dreams.
Moreover, Verafia always had a strange sense of déjà vu regarding that pure white sword light… as if it was something she was very familiar with.
She suddenly thought of an incredible possibility, and her delicate, jade-like face tilted up slightly: “Could it be that Ig, that guy, managed to do this?”
As if in response to her words, familiar footsteps sounded in her ears.
Verafia froze for a moment, her golden pupils inexplicably tinged with moisture. Her youthful, snowy face turned towards the direction of the sound.
Her teeth gently bit her delicate lips. She held Fiya’s small hand, and the color of her golden eyes seemed to ripple with her stirred emotions. They had only been apart for an hour; such easy sentimentality was certainly not supposed to happen.
However, perhaps it was the sadness from the repeated partings and losses in her dreams, or perhaps it was a longing that had lasted far longer than a century, all of which surged into her heart at this moment, dampening the girl’s long eyelashes.
The black-haired young man appeared in the girl’s gazing eyes, still clad in simple black clothes, holding his long sword. On his face was the same unchanged gentle smile.
Ig walked closer, gently picked up her tender, small hand, and called out.
“Young Lady.”
Verafia gazed at him with wide eyes, crystalline ripples constantly flashing in her pupils. Looking at the familiar face of the young man, she had so many things she wanted to say, to tell him about her dreams, her longing, her loneliness.
But all of it turned into a moving smile. She clenched her little fist and lightly hit Ig’s chest. Her snowy face tilted up as she chided in a sweet voice, “You guy, what are you doing here?”
