"It seems so. Even at the level of Heavenly Venerate, one may not be able to use the power of time. The bloodline of the Ancestral Witch is truly magical." Huo Lingzi's eyes sparkled.
The golden and white lights shone against each other, and after a few breaths they began to dim and soon disappeared completely.
Nie Caizhu's figure appeared, floating quietly in the air, her eyes closed, still in a coma.
Her appearance didn't seem to have changed much, but butterfly-like wings grew on her back, one golden and the other white. They were trembling slightly, which was extremely mysterious.
At this moment, a vast aura burst out from Nie Caizhu's body, and it had reached the late stage of True Immortal. Moreover, this aura was very strange, like an immortal but not an immortal, like a witch but not a witch, as if the witch blood and immortal magic power in Nie Caizhu's body had merged together.
The stone statue stood next to Nie Caizhu. Its body was covered with cracks, and some debris fell from time to time. It looked like it was about to collapse.
However, when it looked at Nie Caizhu, a satisfied smile appeared on its face, which was the relief of having its long-cherished wish finally fulfilled.
“Great God Houyi, I have finally fulfilled my promise…” the stone statue murmured to itself. The last ray of spiritual light on its body quickly dissipated. It could no longer stand in the void and fell downwards like a stubborn stone.
A golden light shot out and supported the stone statue, and Shen Luo's figure appeared beside it.
"Thank you for helping Caizhu inherit the power of the great god Houyi." Shen Luo stroked his chest with one hand and saluted with the etiquette of the witch clan.
"You're welcome. She has inherited the power of the great god Houyi and is the hope of our witch clan. Please take care of her in the future..." the stone statue said to Shen Luo.
"Caizhu is my wife-to-be. Don't worry, I will take good care of her." Shen Luo nodded.
The stone statue felt relieved after hearing this. The spiritual light on its body completely dissipated, and it turned into a pile of rubble with a loud bang.
Shen Luo sighed, waved his sleeves, and sent the pile of rubble to the bottom of the collapsed mountain, where the bodies of his compatriots might be, so they could continue to stay together after death.
In mid-air, golden and white light flashed on Nie Caizhu's body at the same time, and her tightly closed eyes slowly opened.
"Caizhu, are you okay?" Seeing this, Shen Luo didn't care about the sad stone statue and flew over.
"Cousin!" Nie Caizhu was delighted when she saw Shen Luo and she jumped over to him.
The golden and white butterfly wings behind her sensed his thoughts, and a golden and white light flashed. The speed suddenly increased tenfold and hit Shen Luo's chest hard.
While Shen Luo was waiting on the side, he had been refining pills and practicing the Dakaipeeling technique to heal his injuries. He had already recovered most of his injuries, but the force of Nie Caizhu's collision was really extraordinary. He felt like he was hit by a meteorite and almost vomited blood again.
"What should I do... Cousin, are you okay?" Nie Caizhu stood there in a daze, seemingly unaware that her own strength was so great. Seeing Shen Luo's pale face, she asked anxiously and distressedly.
"It's okay. This is the injury I suffered when I was fighting with Yan Lie and the others for Hou Yi's artifact. It has nothing to do with you." Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Have you found the artifact of the great god Houyi? Have you got it? And why is there an inexhaustible power in my body? Is this the power of the great god Houyi?" Nie Caizhu was relieved to see that Shen Luo was not seriously injured. Recalling the situation before he fell into a coma, she asked hurriedly.
