Even though the lock was melting, it was doing it really slowly. The flames that could destroy the entire world within seconds couldn’t destroy the lock even after taking half an hour.

Within the first half hour, the lock only melted half. 

”Whoever made it was certainly stronger. His seal can even resist my flames for so long, but it’s not going to be enough! I won’t be at peace until I break it.”

Her flames became only more intense. The lock didn’t melt any faster though. Instead, the lock started melting slower. 

After a long time, finally, the lock melted entirely. 

”Two hours! This took a total of four hours! I can’t believe it.”

”At least I can see what secrets are hidden on the other side.”

The Rainbow Phoenix placed her hand on the doors.

Back in the Martial Space of Long Chen, his Martial Soul stood perfectly calm. In the last battle, when it took over Long Chen’s body to defeat an Origin God, it had wasted a lot of energy. 

It didn’t have much energy even at that time which only got worse after the Battle. The Martial Soul was barely existing at that time. After coming out last time, it went into a deep sleep to regain some of its energy which was a very slow process. 

A spirit appeared before the Martial Soul of Long Chen, which looked no different than him. 

The Spirit of Long Tian went down on his knees before the Martial Soul. 

”Someone has infiltrated the mind of Long Chen. And it’s a pet of your long friend. If she knows what’s behind that door and what happened, she would be really furious.”

”She would kill Long Chen. I think it’s time that we ask for your help one last time!”

The Martial Soul didn’t react. It was like a statue that didn’t have any life of its own. 

”I know you don’t have much strength, but if you don’t do anything right now, it’ll be really bad. Things could get messy. Long Chen would die… Your heir would die! Can you watch it happen?”

”He doesn’t even have a child to continue your bloodline. Can you watch your bloodline be extinguished?” Long Tian asked. “I plead you to do something.”

”If he dies, you’ll lose an heir, and I’ll lose someone who could take care of my family. I beg you to help! Just help this one last time! I swear I won’t disturb you again.”

Even after pleading, Long Tian received no response. He let out a disappointed sigh as he stood up. 

”It looks like this is the end.” He turned around, watching the Rainbow Phoenix slowly open the door.

Gentle winds started brushing against Long Tian. The winds soon became intense as it was filled with immense power. 

Long Tian turned around, looking at the Martial Soul. The Martial Soul had finally opened its eyes. Its blood-red eyes seemed to be filled with death and destruction, but his face seemed a bit pale as if he really didn’t have much strength.

”Thank you!” 

….

The Rainbow Phoenix opened the door, but before she could even take her first step, she was hit by powerful winds that were filled with some mysterious energy. 

She found that energy somewhere family. It was like the purest form of energy. The energy was so pure that even Heavenly Beasts couldn’t control it. 

”There are only two beings who could control this pure energy. One is Master, and the other is… Him.”

She couldn’t even think of clearing as the winds tried to push him out of the consciousness of Long Chen. She tried resisting, but the winds were too strong. Even her wind wasn’t strong enough. 

She casted a barrier around her body, made purely of her Seven Colored flames, but the wind managed to destroy that barrier as well. 

The winds hit the Rainbow Phoenix like a Tsunami, tossing her out of his consciousness. 

She opened her eyes in the real world, finding herself covered in sweat. 

”This… Who could it be? If it were my Master, she wouldn’t be in contract with this guy. It could only mean that it’s her master. No wonder she was willing to establish a contract with him!”

”I don’t know why that person is hiding inside her body, but I won’t let him do what he wants! That person sealed my master! If he’s inside this man, I’ll destroy this man! I’ll tear his soul to a thousand pieces, and I’ll destroy everyone who’s hiding inside him!”

She had promised Long Chen that she wouldn’t use her flames on Long Chen, but she could care less about her promise. 

She raised her hand as she stood up. A seven colored sun appeared above her.  The Seven Colored sun kept getting bigger and bigger until it was big enough to swallow Long Chen whole. 

Following her hand gestures, the Seven Colored sun came crashing down, targeting Long Chen. 

The mysterious winds appeared once again, this time in the real world. 

The winds surrounded Long Chen, shielding him from the flaming sun. 

The sun crashed on the body of Long Chen. 

Remnants of flame flew everywhere, destroying whatever they touched. Xie Min hid behind the Rainbow Phoenix, protecting herself from this flame. Even she wasn’t stupid enough to think that she could survive being hit by the attack of the Rainbow Phoenix. 

She survived the attack. After the flames died down, she peeked her head out. 

”Not even his remains are left. What a powerful attack. Congrats on killing your enemy, Your Majesty.” 

The Rainbow Phoenix still looked suspicious. She could see that not even Long Chen’s body was left behind, but still, she didn’t know why she didn’t feel calm. 

”Maybe it’s because I felt him in there? I’m overthinking now. He is dead. No matter how strong he was at his time, now he was hiding in a human body. There was no way he could’ve faced this attack.”

She walked to her throne, sitting in comfort as she wiped her sweat. “Finally, she and her master are dead. But I do wonder what memories were hidden behind that door? What happened? How did he end up inside a human’s body?”

”So many questions are left unsolved. Maybe I would’ve held on for a bit. I shouldn’t have killed them so directly.”
