Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Prehistoric Overlord (Part 1)

Rumble——

Chuzheng looked at the lightning that struck the stone nearby with lingering fear.

If she hadn’t woken up in time, she would have been hit by it.

Charred to a crisp.

The kind you can’t even pick up.

Scary enough to kill someone.

Chuzheng walked a couple of steps and realized something was off...

Her body didn’t feel quite right.

Chuzheng looked down at her hands... Where were her hands? There were only wings covered with feathers left, and they were charred and pitted, like wings that had been roasted.

”...”

My hands, my hands are gone!!

Lightning continued from above, striking straight toward her.

Chuzheng instinctively dodged.

Who knew there was a cliff behind her, and as the sensation of weightlessness hit, the sound of the wind howled past her ears.

Before Chuzheng summoned Yin Xian, her wings flapped instinctively twice, her body lightened, and she swooped back up from the cliff.

Rumble——

A lightning bolt as thick as an arm struck down, grazing her body as it passed.

Chuzheng felt a scorching pain, the powerful pressure from heaven and earth almost knocking her out of balance.

Without having earned her flying license yet, Chuzheng floundered in the air for a bit before finally getting a sense of control over her... oh, wings.

Chuzheng dodged the continuously falling bolts of lightning, trying to find a place to hide.

But the lightning seemed to have eyes, persistently striking toward her.

What’s that supposed to mean!

Are you picking on me because I look weak and helpless?!

Just as Chuzheng was about to brace herself against it, the sky suddenly calmed.

The dark clouds didn’t disperse, still looming oppressively, like they might crush down at any moment, with a faint sound of rolling thunder.

This place was all cliffs, so Chuzheng found a spot to land.

Only then did Chuzheng have a moment to examine herself.

And she discovered she had turned into a — bird.

The original wasn’t a bird; she was a phoenix.

The only phoenix in this world.

This world was kind of special.

It was still in the Prehistoric Era, with no humans, only all sorts of animals — well, ones that could take human forms.

All sorts of Divine Beasts, Fierce Beasts, Spiritual Beasts...

In short, all kinds of beasts.

As the only phoenix in the Prehistoric Era, the original was very much a hot commodity; everyone... no, every beast wanted a bite of her or a drink of her blood.

Purpose?

It’s said to strengthen the body, enhance abilities, and even snatch you back from Yama’s Palace after death.

Yes, that’s how extraordinary it is.

As for whether it’s really that extraordinary, the original didn’t know.

The original was still young and not strong.

She was always chased around by these things; although she was the only phoenix in the world, she was no good at fighting but excellent at running away, and no one had really gotten her yet.

The Divine Beasts and Fierce Beasts in the Prehistoric Era had to undergo a lightning tribulation to take human form.

When the original was transforming, the sky was filled with lightning, continuously striking down.

The original withstood part of the tribulation, but she had never experienced it before and had no guidance, so she soon couldn’t hold on.

It was at this time that someone suddenly appeared and even approached her.

That person took advantage of the moment when the tribulation wasn’t descending, stole the Phoenix Stone from her, and took her Phoenix Essence Blood.

The original didn’t know what the Phoenix Stone was, only that it had been with her since she could remember, providing protection.

Without the Phoenix Stone, and with most of her Phoenix Essence Blood gone, it was predictable that the original couldn’t withstand the upcoming lightning.

After the lightning had passed, the original couldn’t endure the transformation and was eaten by the Prehistoric beasts waiting beside her.

Chuzheng could still sense the original’s pain and despair from being eaten from her memories.

If she still had the Phoenix Stone and Phoenix Essence, the original might have been able to pull through.

As long as she withstood the tribulation, her strength would greatly increase, and she could have survived.

So the goal this time was the one who had stolen the original’s Phoenix Stone and Phoenix Essence.

However...

In the original’s memory, that person was blurry.

All that’s known is that it was a woman.

What to do now!!

Wait!!

The current timeline is right after the original was robbed of the Phoenix Stone and Phoenix Essence; the second wave of lightning is about to strike!

Oh crap!

How am I supposed to endure this?

Why does life have to treat a poor little thing like me this way!

Chuzheng ruffled her wings, which were struck into a mess, pitch-black...

Simply unbearable to look at.

Rumble——

Above the firmament, dark clouds rumbled and the thunder grew louder.

Lightning broke through the clouds, striking down on her mercilessly.

”...”

Ahhhhh!!

About to be struck to death!

Chuzheng stamped her feet and dove straight down the cliff.

After all, with an unfamiliar body, Chuzheng still had some trouble controlling it and could only use Yin Xian to aid her, which allowed her to dodge the lightning that seemed to have eyes.

This stuff couldn’t be controlled by humans; the only way was to endure until it ended.

[Miss, I’d suggest you get struck.]

Chuzheng laughed coldly in her heart.

How about you go die?

Chuzheng said coldly, ”You want me to die, but no need to be so blatant about it.”

[Miss, if you don’t get struck, how will you take human form? Do you want to stick with this body?] The King’s Account said chirpily, [To take form, you have to get struck.]

Chuzheng: ”...”

Chuzheng glanced at her wings, which were wildly struck by lightning.

Holy...!

What kind of freaky setting is this.

”If I get struck to death, whose responsibility is it?”

[Don’t worry, miss, we offer a rewind service.] The King’s Account assured Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Chuzheng felt that Bastard was trying to coax her into willingly getting struck by lightning.

But when she thought about it carefully, in this world, it seemed like you really had to be struck by lightning to transform.

”I won’t transform.” Chuzheng said firmly.

[...] The King’s Account paused for a few seconds: [Miss, consider your Good Person Card; are you sure you want to meet your Good Person Card like this?]

”What’s wrong? I’m still a phoenix at least! Could I be unattractive? If he dares, can I not beat him to a pulp?” Chuzheng said fiercely.

[...]

Can’t mess with you.

[Miss, you will regret this.] Bastard dropped this line and vanished.

Regret?

Impossible.

Not in this lifetime.

Chuzheng rejected Bastard’s suggestion, resolute not to get struck by lightning.

Chuzheng searched for a place to hide among the cliffs and used Yin Xian to evade the lightning strikes as they came down.

The effect was apparent.

Chuzheng was never struck again.

Chuzheng watched as the lightning in the sky slowly subsided and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally over.

The last bolt of lightning struck down, causing rocks to fall nearby.

Chuzheng chose a spot to land, folding her wings at her sides.

She looked up at the sky.

The dark clouds were still piled up above.

They’ve finished striking, so why don’t they disperse?

According to the original’s memory, the tribulation would quickly end and disappear afterward.

Is it stuck or what?

Chuzheng sensed something was wrong.

Almost simultaneously, a large area of lightning fell from the sky, dense and unavoidable.

Chuzheng didn’t know how wide the range was, but unless she could teleport, there was no escaping it.

Does it have to be that cunning!

Not comfortable unless it strikes me, right!!

Chuzheng almost burst out cursing, but in the end, worrying about her image, she swallowed the dirty words back down.
