As if waking from a deep dream, the figure opened its eyes groggily and looked at Xiao Wenbing in front of it.
Xiao Wenbing's expression was extremely strange, his eyes staring intently at the top of the small bronze mirror.
Seemingly sensing something amiss in the surroundings, the Mirror Spirit hesitantly turned its head, its small, bewildered eyes suddenly widening dramatically.
"sky……"
However, it had only uttered one word when the remaining heavenly lightning pierced through its illusory body and slammed heavily onto the small bronze mirror.
As if bound by some kind of restriction, the small bronze mirror suddenly lit up, bursting forth with dazzling, multicolored light. It was as if the most beautiful fireworks in the world had been ignited before one's eyes, radiating an incomparably brilliant brilliance.
The heavenly lightning poured down relentlessly, but the moment it touched the rich, seven-colored light, it vanished without a trace, as if it had encountered its nemesis.
The power of this divine artifact is truly extraordinary; even the most powerful cultivators in the cultivation world, such as the Earthly Thunder, are helpless against it.
Hiding behind the small bronze mirror, Xiao Wenbing felt a sharp pain in his wrist as the powerful impact traveled up his arm and throughout his body.
He cried out in surprise, unable to control his flying body any longer. He released the small bronze mirror, wrapped his arms around Feng Baiyi's slender waist, and fell to the ground.
"Bang……"
A loud crash was heard, and the two of them slammed heavily to the ground.
Xiao Wenbing landed hard on his back, his internal organs feeling as if they had been repeatedly and violently struck. His vision went black, and he nearly died. If he hadn't just achieved the Golden Core stage, further enhancing his physique, he might not have been able to withstand it.
Although Feng Baiyi was being held in his arms, the thick cushion beneath her still caused the power of the earth-shattering energy within her to vibrate. She opened her cherry-like mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood from her heart.
The bright red blood sprayed directly onto the butterfly fairy's light pupa, and the surface of the light pupa immediately rippled with red, instantly absorbing all the blood.
In the sky, lightning and seven-colored light clashed endlessly. After a standoff, the remaining power of the lightning finally dissipated.
Once the threat of heavenly lightning was gone, the seven-colored light immediately subsided.
The small bronze mirror, suspended high in the sky, lost the pull of gravity and fell down with a whoosh, landing next to Xiao Wenbing.
Xiao Wenbing laughed heartily, extremely pleased with himself. He had long known that since it was a divine artifact, it was definitely not that simple. If a person could be scattered by the mere residual power of the Five Thunder Tribulation, then this divine artifact would be far too worthless.
"Infinite Heavenly Venerable".
The Tianyi Sect Master and his entourage, far away, loudly praised the skill. They were filled with admiration for the secret techniques of the Heavenly Thunder Palace, never expecting that in addition to the lightning-summoning technique, there was such a magnificent seven-colored divine light technique. It was clear that the Heavenly Thunder Palace, which dominated the entire cultivation world, truly deserved its title as the number one in the world.
Beneath the thunderclouds, Xiao Wenbing, holding Feng Baiyi, lay seemingly peacefully beside the chrysalis.
"Why did you come up here?" Feng Baiyi, having calmed the chaotic energy within her body, still nestled weakly in his arms, but she asked softly.
"This..." Xiao Wenbing thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either."
"Don't you know?" Feng Baiyi suddenly seemed to have received the happiest answer. She slightly opened her eyes and revealed a genuinely joyful smile.
Xiao Wenbing felt bewildered. He tightened his grip on her waist, pressing her soft, boneless body against his own.
Gazing into her beautiful, large eyes, he slowly lowered his head.
"Smack..."
A soft sound rang in their ears, and Xiao Wenbing's expression shifted, as if he had just woken from a dream.
He immediately looked up, and before them, the top of the luminous chrysalis had burst open.
After overcoming countless hardships, the butterfly fairy is finally about to emerge from its pupa and transform into human form.
"Boom..."
Xiao Wenbing looked up in alarm, but the clouds above still lingered. His face immediately turned extremely grim, and he prayed in a low voice, "Heavens above, wasn't it supposed to be the Five Thunder Tribulation? Please don't let there be a sixth tribulation, or I'll really be going to meet Amitabha Buddha."
Volume Four: The Divine Artifacts, Chapter 127: The Butterfly Fairy's Transformation
------------------------
Feng Baiyi also woke up with a start, recalling the enchanting moment just now, and her face instantly turned red. However, she bit her lip lightly, and her gaze returned to normal in a moment. She asked softly, "What about the Five Thunder Tribulation? Who blocked it?"
Xiao Wenbing casually pointed to a small, inconspicuous bronze mirror lying alone on the grass.
"What is that?"
"Hmm, this..." Xiao Wenbing's eyes lit up, he coughed, and asked cautiously, "Have you heard the story of Snow White?"
As expected, Feng Baiyi shook her head blankly.
Xiao Wenbing immediately said seriously, "Never mind if you haven't heard of it, I'll explain it to you later. Anyway, this mirror is the bronze mirror of the old witch in Western legends. It's a magical treasure that can talk... and bite. It was it that blocked Wu Zai Lei just now."
"The West? The old witch's bronze mirror?"
Xiao Wenbing nodded repeatedly and said, "White Robe, the sixth Heavenly Tribulation is coming again. Watch my methods."
Having said that, he raised the small bronze mirror, fully prepared, ready to throw the Mirror God up without mercy as soon as the heavenly tribulation descended.
However, his sleeve tightened, and when he looked down, he saw Feng Baiyi tugging at his sleeve, saying, "The heavenly tribulation has passed, why are you so nervous?"
"It's over?" Xiao Wenbing asked incredulously, pointing to the cloud clusters overhead that were flashing with scattered lightning.
“That’s right, the heavenly tribulation has passed.” Feng Baiyi said with certainty, “What we are seeing now is merely the aftermath of the heavenly tribulation, and it will not harm anyone. Once the aftermath passes, it will naturally dissipate and everything will return to normal.”
Nodding and letting out a sigh of relief, Xiao Wenbing spoke lightly, but inwardly he was sweating bullets. Who knew if the Mirror God would unleash its full power again? If it suddenly pretended to be deaf and dumb, wouldn't he really be smashed to death by heavenly lightning?
"Snap." A strange sound suddenly rang out beside them.
Xiao Wenbing turned his head and looked around, his face filled with surprise and joy. He pointed at the luminous chrysalis and said, "White Robe. Look, the Butterfly Fairy is out. She's... out...!"
After going through so much trouble, it was truly a long and difficult wait for the Butterfly Fairy to appear...
But then, a moment later, his voice suddenly stammered, and his eyes shone as he stared intently at the stunningly beautiful face that slowly rose from the luminous chrysalis.
Those stunningly beautiful features clearly made her another Feng Baiyi.
Xiao Wenbing involuntarily hugged the beautiful woman in his arms tightly; the real feeling told him that Feng Baiyi was in his embrace.
The figures inside the luminous chrysalis rose gracefully, gradually revealing themselves.
A long, slender, fair neck. A smooth, supple chest, a sensual, deep cleavage, and those two alluring, rosy nipples. A rounded, smooth abdomen, and below…
His blood seemed to boil, surging upwards. Xiao Wenbing's face turned red, and he felt a heat at the tip of his nose as two streams of blood slowly flowed down.
However, he seemed oblivious, his eyes fixed straight ahead. Just as he was about to see the most beautiful sight, suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his chin, a powerful force surged through him, and his entire head jerked back high. He opened his mouth wide and then slammed it shut, biting his tongue hard. Instantly, he saw stars, and a piercing pain shot through every nerve ending in his body.
His body sprang high into the air as if he had been electrocuted, leaping up and down like a giant monkey. After a while, he reached up and held his chin, his eyes brimming with tears.
“You…” Xiao Wenbing angrily pointed at Feng Baiyi, the culprit, who was standing nonchalantly beside Diexian. Diexian was now wearing a white brocade robe that completely covered her flawless body.
"What about me?" Feng Baiyi's expression was not good. The shyness in her eyes had not yet faded. She looked back at him with a mixture of anger and resentment.
Xiao Wenbing's gaze moved to Die Xian's body. A gust of wind blew by, lifting the hem of her robe and revealing a pair of straight, slender, and beautiful legs.
A sudden rush of heat to his head caused Xiao Wenbing to abruptly raise his hand to cover his mouth and nose. However, his gaze shifted back and forth between Diexian and Feng Baiyi.
Feng Baiyi's face flushed red and then turned pale. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and said angrily, "If you keep looking, Ya Kai will wake up."
Xiao Wenbing was stunned, as if a bucket of Arctic water had been poured over his head, and his enthusiasm immediately cooled down.
Seeing that Xiao Wenbing's gaze had regained its clarity, Feng Baiyi breathed a sigh of relief, but felt as if she had lost something, and her mood became low.
The sky gradually cleared, and the thick clouds began to thin, soon to completely dissipate.
Xiao Wenbing's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered something. The thunderclouds hadn't yet dissipated, so the old Taoist priests probably still wouldn't dare approach. However, in a few moments, when the thunderclouds completely dispersed, and they rushed forward, what would happen if they saw the barely clothed Butterfly Fairy?
Thinking of this, Xiao Wenbing suddenly turned around and said, "White Robe, Zongheng Diexian, change into a nicer outfit. Be careful not to expose yourself."
There was no reply from Feng Baiyi, but the sound of rustling clothes being changed could be heard behind him. After a moment, Feng Baiyi said softly, "All done."
With a hint of regret, I turned my head, and then my eyes lit up. Two phoenix-clad figures, two identical phoenix-clad figures, stood side by side beside the luminous cocoon.
Xiao Wenbing felt dizzy and disoriented. The two men were identical in appearance, expression, and even clothing, making it impossible to distinguish them.
However, Xiao Wenbing vaguely felt that the woman in white on his right seemed to have a close connection with him. He hesitated, raised his hand, pointed to the right, and asked hesitantly, "Butterfly Fairy?"
"Yes, Master." Butterfly Fairy smiled gently, her beauty captivating.
Xiao Wenbing's heart pounded; he never expected that even the voice sounded so much like Feng Baiyi's.
He strode forward to Butterfly Fairy, clicking his tongue in amazement. The thought that he actually had a pet demon resembling a phoenix in white robes brought a strange expression to Xiao Wenbing's face.
Well, Feng Baiyi cannot disobey my orders; if I command her to…
Xiao Wenbing suddenly tilted his head back and covered his nose with his hand.
"What are you thinking?" A furious voice rang out from beside him.
"Ah...no, it's nothing." Xiao Wenbing quickly denied it, while suppressing his wandering thoughts.
The girl, enraged and embarrassed, glared at him, completely disbelieving his answer.
However, despite her disbelief, she was helpless against the man before her. She couldn't very well summon a bolt of lightning to strike him down...
Xiao Wenbing suddenly remembered something. He asked cautiously, "White Robe, when did you regain consciousness?"
"Why are you asking this?" A faint blush suddenly rose on Feng Baiyi's pretty face.
Xiao Wenbing's heart skipped a beat. It was all over. It seemed she had already woken up when he kissed her. Luckily, he was too timid and only kissed her cheek; if he had tried anything more, she'd probably be lying on the ground, unable to get up by now.
However, the fact that she could tolerate him kissing her cheek made Xiao Wenbing's eyes flash, and a mischievous smile appeared in his gaze as he stared at her.
The blush on Feng Baiyi's face grew even redder under his ambiguous gaze.
The sight was so beautiful, Xiao Wenbing was overjoyed and delighted.
Suddenly, a ripple emanated from the Qiankun Ring, and the two of them simultaneously exclaimed "Ah!" and looked away guiltily.
A surge of spiritual energy emanated from the Qiankun Ring, gradually drawing into Zhang Yaqi's body. When the last wisp of spiritual energy disappeared, the Qiankun Ring transformed into a five-colored ray of light, coiling around Zhang Yaqi's wrist.
And the bright young girl opened her eyes almost at the same time.
"Wenbing, Sister Feng..." Zhang Yaqi stood up with a smile, but then her eyes widened suddenly, and she exclaimed again, "Sister Feng...?"
Xiao Wenbing gave a wry smile. Anyone who sees the Butterfly Fairy for the first time will find it extremely unbelievable.
Several whooshing sounds reached their ears, and seeing that the heavenly tribulation had dissipated, several old Taoists rushed over impatiently.
With a flick of his wrist, Xiao Wenbing had already incorporated the divine artifact, the small bronze mirror, into his Heavenly Void Ring. The fewer people who knew about this thing, the better.
"Amitabha." The voice of the Tianyi Sect Master arrived before he did: "Thanks to Elder Feng's timely awakening, this great... calamity was averted."
