Chapter 1072
Chapter 1072 Eternal Secrets
Carolyn was not used to this title, but at this moment, she couldn’t care less about it. All she wanted to do was figure out what on
earth was going on! She held up a CD and asked, “Do you have a player for this here?”
“We’ve been isolated from the world for countless years. We used to have some devices, but they’ve all broken down,” Mia
sighed. Carolyn frowned, then said, “In that case, I need to go back to my hover car. There’s a device on it that I can use to
watch!” “Please, go ahead!” Mia quickly nodded in agreement.
Carolyn quickly returned to her hover car with the disc in hand, and a group of people from the area hurriedly followed her,
surrounding her hover car!
As for Fenton, who was in the car, he had already been taken to the village for medical treatment. Once inside the hover car,
Gerald located the device and inserted the disc. Soon, a blue screen slowly materialized within the hover car. On the screen, a
stunning and ethereal figure appeared!
She was dressed in a phoenix robe, wearing a phoenix crown on her head, and holding a red long sword in her hand. Her face
was somewhat pale, and her eyes carried a hint of coldness as she stared directly at the camera. “Young one, I am Lady
Phoenix, Nancy Leedon!”
Carolyn’s expression changed. Nancy Leedon was a name she was not unfamiliar with. Among the numerous documents
unearthed from the Burial Ground, this name appeared time and time again. In that ancient era, she was as renowned as
Emperor Lionel. Previously, Gerald had come across a diary entry in the Burial Ground, left behind by the people who had
constructed it.
The text also recorded some events about Lady Phoenix, but in the end, it noted: [Lady Phoenix’s body was transported back to
Myriad Mountains, where she died in battle!]
However, Carolyn could never have imagined that in this world, she would see the image left behind by Nancy. The two
generations of Phoenix Bone owners, separated by the long river of history, were actually having a conversation here!
She didn’t know what was going on, but she tried her best to suppress the shock in her heart and continued to watch the video.
“When you see this image, I will have already perished!
Xcome from the far reaches of the starry sky, pursuing the people of Nether Palace. I’ve traversed the cosmos to reach this
place, joining forces with the Eight Forces to eliminate Nether Palace together!”
At this very moment, Carolyn felt a shiver run down her spine! From the records found in unearthed artifacts on Earth, Carolyn
had some understanding of the battle that took place back then.
Many years ago, Nether Palace invaded Earth, leading to a fierce battle with the ancestors of Earth. Both sides suffered
devastating casualties and losses. In the end, as the civilization neared its demise, humanity was on the brink of extinction,
retreating to the Myriad
Mountains. Countless people sacrificed themselves to drive the Nether Palace out of Earth. Later, Emperor Lionel, with the
remaining survivors, forced the captured members of the Nether Palace to pilot an aircraft, ascending into outer space to
continue their deadly battle against the Nether Palace!
At that time, Emperor Lionel was already seeing red with rage! Of course, there are no records of the battle that took place in
outer space. By the time the story continues, Lady Phoenix’s body had already been transported back to Myriad Mountains.
And now, judging from Nancy’s image, it seemed as if they had hunted across the entire starry sky, all the way to the Nether
Palace’s lair, vowing to avenge those who had died.
And so, the Eight Forces and the Nether Palace joined together on this planet, engaging in a decisive battle in this world! This is
completely different from what Carolyn and Gerald had understood before.
Previously, what they knew was that the Nether Palace had suffered a devastating blow on Earth, with only one in ten Death
Lords surviving. The Eight Forces took advantage of the situation to launch their attacks. However, throughout the records, there
was no mention of anything related to the Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone. In the annals of this world’s history, the emergence of
Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone marks the era of the previous generation’s Geza the Great.
In the chaotic era, the rise of the Nether Palace was erased from history due to the Eight Forces’ prohibition on mentioning it.
Now, it seems that not only was the Nether Palace erased, but also the involvement of Emperor Lionel and others in that battle.
At this moment, Carolyn was deep in thought, while the images continued to play on. “Lionel and the Nether King fought deep
within Mount Moores. Their battle was one that we had no right to interfere in. Lionel was gravely injured, while the Nether King
was reduced to nothing but bones.” Lady Phoenix’s voice was cold and clear, recounting the events of that year word by word.
“The Nether Palace was on the verge of
collapse, and Lionel had a chance to survive. However, one of the Eight Forces, an organization from the Nether Palace Rho
Guild called the Soulreaper Sect, suddenly launched an attack. The leader, Fedvica Crev, assassinated our expert with the life
attribute, causing Lionel to die without treatment. The Soulreaper Sect, along with several other factions of the Eight Forces,
besieged us! Among the Eight Forces, some remained silent, some were accomplices, but none of them spoke up for us.”
Upon seeing this, a chill ran down Carolyn’s spine. Everything she had seen before seemed problematic to her, but she had no
doubts about what Nancy said. This... these were the ancestors of Earth. Their generation had nearly perished in battle, but they
managed to protect the Earth.
At this moment, Lady Phoenix was calmly recounting the incident, but for some unknown reason, Carolyn’s chest was filled with
turbulence, and a surge of anger kept rising within her.
Clearly, the people of the Eight Forces ultimately betrayed Emperor Lionel with a stab in the back. “I’ve led my people here,
fleeing all the way to this place. I’ve heard that this is
the Fallen Phoenix Mountain, once the dwelling and final resting place of the phoenix. The Eight Forces surround the mountain,
and we’ve become like trapped turtles!” Nancy said calmly, revealing everything.
“Enough talk!” Nancy laughed and said, “I left this video message to inform the future Phoenix Bone inheritors of two things.
First, a prophecy about Lionel!”
“At the brink of death, Lionel once said that he will return again to this world in the future!’” “In my hometown, there are things he
needs, and he will conquer again!”
“Secondly, my legacy and my sacred sword are hidden beneath the Fallen Phoenix Mountain. After my death, I hope that they
will be of help to you. Apart from the owner of the Phoenix Bone, no one else can obtain them, not even the Eternal Flame
Decayer!” She said this with a hint of confidence in her tone!
“In exchange, I hope you can promise that after entering the Eternal Level of Flame Decay, you will protect the safety of my
hometown. As for the location of my hometown, you can learn it from the Nether Palace!” The image came to an abrupt halt.
After the recording of this video, what happened, how she died, and how her body and Emperor Lionel’s body were transported
back to Earth, all remains unknown. However, this particular video truly left Carolyn in awe! At this moment, her chest was filled
with anger!
She murmured, “Unbelievable, no one can be trusted, not the Alcoholic, nor the Archaic Tribe!” “Not of my kind, their hearts must
be different! Their hearts must be different!” She raised her head, gazing at the setting sun, and murmured, “Gerald...”
She took a deep breath and stood up, walking out. She still had many things to do, many questions to ask the people living here,
such as whether they were descendants of Earth and why they chose to stay. What caused Lady Phoenix’s death, and
what exactly did they encounter back then? Besides the Soulreaper Sect, who else was involved? Gerald was unaware of all
this. At that moment, he was staring intently ahead, his expression serious. Gradually, cold sweat began to form on his forehead.
This was his second time facing the Eternal Flame Decayer! For the first time, with the help of the statue left behind by Geza the
Great, he still had a glimmer of resistance. And this time, he could only rely on himself!
Down below, after their victory, Valery and her two companions had already escorted Xavier’s wife into the base, where they
encountered no danger.
At that moment, Micah looked towards Gerald and his group, and said to Nolan, “It’s them. That young man and Xavier are both
at the level of peak Flame Decay, and there are several others at the supreme level of Flame Decay. You just need to help me
deal with them.”
Nolan reached out his hand, the scar on his face twitching as he said, “Give me what I want!” Micah gritted his teeth, then pulled
out a piece of cloth and handed it to Nolan, saying, “Here are two keys, and I’ll give you the remaining one after everything is
over!”
“All right!” Nolan’s hoarse voice rang out, and then he licked his lips, taking one step at a time as he walked forward. On his
back, there was an ancient-looking knife!
“Mr. Callum!” At this moment, from above, Gerald slowly exhaled and said, “You have to deal with Micah!” “So, Nolan...” Xavier’s
expression changed slightly as he spoke. “Leave him to me!” Gerald took a deep breath, his eyes fixed intently on Nolan,
speaking with a solemn tone.
