Just by capitalizing on the rumors, Lianhua and Wushang went to the hills. Although it was forbidden to go by Hua Tianzhi. On the basis of curiosity, leaving behind the pain Lianhua suffered. So did the young man who was with him, passing through several steep rock climbs and cliffs.
"Are you sure you want to continue your journey? Aren't you sick?"
"It's okay, Wushang. We will get something valuable. You can read the map, right? Where are we going again?"
Zhang Wushang thought as he looked at the map he had stolen from the warehouse. Reading maps was not a skill he possessed. He had only taken Lianhua to any place. There is no intention to climb the hill. How could it be, a noble child seemed to be taking that grueling journey? He usually takes a horse-drawn carriage to travel far.
Lianhua Nushen whose body was used to going up the hill, had no significant difficulties. Although not fully recovered, after the incident yesterday. He wanted to give something to Hua Tianzhi by finding a celestial artifact of what kind was unknown.
In a canyon that had a black and gripping aura, there was the sound of screaming. An incredible voice that can only be heard by the gods. That voice was Huo Feng Huang's voice. A demon king who was confined within a very deep canyon.
The sky chain tied his hands and feet. So it cannot go from the canyon that even ordinary humans cannot enter. For thousands of years, Huo Feng Huang had received the punishment of the heavens. Each time he received a whip and another painful torment.
"Aakh! Akkh!" shouted Huo Feng Huang. Currently he was being whipped by a celestial animal. Experiencing unbearable pain as long as the torture continues.
The celestial animal was like a lion, having a tail that could whip violently. The hot whip from the sky lion's tail, made a wound on Huo Feng Huang's body. Blistering wounds that have continued to grow for thousands of years. Once every hundred years, the sky lion will come to torment the demon lord.
"Wushang, did you hear a scream? It looks like someone is in pain" Lianhua Nushen said, asking Wushang.
"No. I didn't hear anything. You may have heard wrong or you may not have healed. Then, we better take a break first."
It was actually Zhang Wushang who was already feeling tired. But he would quibble if considered exhausted by the girl beside him at this moment. He does not want to lose or admit, his stamina is not enough to continue the journey.
"If you are tired, you can rest first. It seems like the sound is not far from here. I went there first, Dad. I'll be here again." Lianhua left her exhausted friend. Because I felt something curious about him.
The screams were getting clearer. When we got to a scary place. There was a canyon surrounded by a pitch-black aura.
"So that's where the sound came from? How do I get down there? Maybe someone needs help." Lianhua Nushen intended to go down but was confused where to go.
The torture carried out by the celestial guards carried the sky lion. Whipping Huo Feng Huang with extreme pain. But the stamina that the demon lord possessed was still not at the very end. No one could enter that terrifying canyon. Someone who enters cannot get out of the canyon. Even gods, would forever be inside if it did not have a celestial artifact.
Star Formation Token, was a tool that could be used to open or close star formations. The Star Formation itself was a formation created by a high-level god cultivator. It was necessary to gather at least five gods who had the highest cultivation to set up a formation.
Huo Feng Huang was in a star formation created by the five gods. Other gods could enter the formation if they had a Star Formation Token. There were two gods waiting for the celestial beast to torment Huo Feng Huang inside the canyon that had a formation.
"This job is exhausting. If it's not on duty, I won't bother bringing the celestial beast to punish the demon."
"Hey, isn't that the Lotus Flower Goddess? Why is it here?" Looking at Lianhua Nushen, made the god point towards the girl. With a surprised face, I did not expect to meet him in person.
"Cannot be. You may have seen it wrong. If it was him, it might still be in the womb. Just yesterday the Flower Goddess Lotus was brought to the pond of forgetfulness. Mane might have been that big. But look, very similar."
Being stunned to see Lianhua Nushen, making the two gods accidentally drop the Star Formation token. They were unaware that the token had fallen. While Lianhua Nushen saw the token fall down.
"We should leave this place soon. We report to the emperor of the sky."
"alright. We'll immediately pull the sky lion. But we'd better let it go."
The two gods left the place, flying towards the sky realm. They left behind a celestial beast that was punishing Huo Feng Huang. Upon seeing Lianhua being in front of the canyon that had a formation, where Huo Feng Huang was getting punished.
"What is that thing? Seems to have seen something like that. Is this a token or what?" Lianhua took the token dropped by the god.
Curious, the girl looked around every corner. He accidentally activated the Star Formation Token. Opening a portal in the formation. Then his body was sucked into the portal and into the canyon.
Lianhua Nushen had no idea what had happened to him. Suddenly I woke up in a horrible place. In the dark and the aura of death pierced his soul. Huo Feng Huang who was being tortured, sounded his screams. Quite loud, making Lianhua hear with a slice.
"Akkh!" huo Feng Huang shouted loudly. When he was hit by a lash that seemed to break his bones. His body was now filled with blood that was beginning to blacken.
The sky lion whipping with its tail, looked at Lianhua Nushen. The celestial beast could see the aura of the Goddess emanating within Lianhua. That was why he dared not do anything. If he is commanded, he obediently obeys him. Especially with the Star Formation token he was holding.
"Goddess. What you command, I will obey." The sky lion lowered its head in front of Lianhua Nushen. Speak out loud and respectful.
"What's going on? Who are you talking to? With me, huh?" tanya Lianhua pointed to herself. He was afraid to see a large and terrible lion.
"Yes, you're the only one here. Besides the servant and the devil behind me. What orders should I follow, Goddess?"
Lianhua was confused by the sky lion. But he felt like just an ordinary man. Could it be because her beauty made a lion, considering her a Goddess? Maybe this is his chance to free someone who yells that.
"Then set him free." Lianhua Nushen looked at the nanar towards Huo Feng Huang.
