"Mother!"
Just two words made Xi He, whose heart was like dead ashes, suddenly freeze!
She abruptly turned her head, her gaze fixed on the young man next to Tai Yi.
It was him!
Just now, it was he who was holding Da Yi!
It was also he who stood beside the eight giant eggs, each flowing with Solar True Fire!
Xi He's heartbeat almost stopped at this moment.
Before she arrived, she had already prepared for the worst.
The news of her nine sons' demise was like the Nine Heavens' ice, freezing her Divine Soul.
She didn't dare to imagine the tragic scene, only hoping to retrieve her children's remains and bring them back to the Sun Star for burial.
Upon reaching the battlefield, her Divine Thought frantically swept across the area, but there were no expected remains.
Instead, she saw the eight giant eggs emanating a strong Origin aura of the sun, and this young man with a peculiar aura.
A preposterous yet Soul-shaking thought had once flashed through her despairing heart.
Were those her children?
But this thought was too ethereal, too luxurious.
She didn't dare to think deeply, much less hope for it!
Fearing that the greater the hope, the deeper the despair.
She forced herself to look away, focusing on the heavily injured Tai Yi and the impending battle.
However, at this moment, this cry of "Mother" instantly dispelled all the gloom and incredulous fear in her heart!
"You…"
Xi He's figure swayed, and she instantly appeared before Lu Jun, moving so fast that even Di Jun couldn't fully see her.
She reached out her hand, her fingertips trembling slightly with cautiousness, almost reverence.
She wanted to touch Lu Jun's face but stopped in mid-air, fearing that everything before her was just a mirage.
"Mother, I am Lu Jun!"
Lu Jun smiled and spoke.
A brilliant light shone in Xi He's eyes, her original dead silence turning into joyous surprise: "You are… my… Jun'er?"
Tears, uncontrollably, streamed from her beautiful eyes.
"It's me, Mother!" Lu Jun walked towards Xi He.
"Good! Good! Good child!"
Xi He could no longer hold back and tightly embraced Lu Jun.
She felt the real aura and warmth on her son's body, and her almost shattered heart was finally filled with immense joy.
She raised her head, her gaze sweeping over the eight giant eggs, filled with unparalleled excitement and hope: "Then they… Bo Huang, Zhong Lang…?"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry."
Tai Yi's voice sounded at the right time, carrying a smile of relief, but also a hint of solemnity.
He looked at Di Jun and the countless Yao Race elites behind him, and said loudly.
"All of this is thanks to Sixth Crown Prince Lu Jun! If he hadn't turned the tide, Bo Huang and the others might have truly… been doomed forever!"
"Sixth Crown Prince?"
Di Jun keenly caught the change in Tai Yi's address.
No longer "Nephew Lu Jun," but "Sixth Crown Prince Lu Jun"!
This was to build momentum for him throughout the Yao Race, establishing his revered position within the Yao Race!
Di Jun instantly understood Tai Yi's profound meaning.
"Tai Yi, you arrived a step earlier, tell me, what exactly happened here?"
"Bo Huang and the others… and what's with your injuries?"
Tai Yi took a deep breath: "Big brother, this is what happened…"
He recounted everything that had occurred, one by one.
Da Yi shooting the sun!
Lu Jun's mysterious appearance and his turning the tide!
The eight Crown Princes' Nirvana and transformation into eggs!
His own arrival and battle with the Ancestral Witch!
The Golden Crow Nirvana and Lu Jun's Physical Body mutation, learned from Lu Jun and Da Yi!
As Tai Yi narrated, the shock in Di Jun's eyes, which contained endless stars, grew deeper and deeper!
Nirvana!
The Golden Crow Clan could actually undergo Rebirth like the Phoenix!
Lu Jun's self-Nirvana, actually possessing Physical Body potential comparable to an Ancestral Witch!
Although the other eight sons underwent Nirvana with Lu Jun's help, their potential was slightly inferior, but they ultimately survived!
Each piece of information was like a Chaos Divine Thunder exploding in Di Jun's Sea of Consciousness!
Xi He listened, her mind swaying, and she tightened her grip on Lu Jun's arm even more.
Indeed!
Her guess was true!
Her sons were not dead!
They had undergone Nirvana!
Her gaze towards the eight eggs was filled with boundless maternal love and hope.
"It's good that they survived! It's good that they survived! Nirvana… Good! Good! Good! Heaven did not abandon my sons!"
She said "good" three times, her voice choked but full of power.
Di Jun's shock, however, had an additional layer of profound contemplation.
Nirvana!
What did this mean?
It meant that the Golden Crow Clan had a second life!
It meant the possibility of continuing their Bloodline, or even becoming stronger during the great calamity!
Lu Jun's Physical Body, after Nirvana, was comparable to an Ancestral Witch?
Then what if he, Di Jun, underwent Nirvana?
What if Tai Yi underwent Nirvana?
Their brothers were already at the Peak of Quasi-Saints; if they were further strengthened by Nirvana… Di Jun's gaze involuntarily swept towards the chaos bell hovering above Lu Jun and the eight eggs.
He then looked at Tai Yi, who, though covered in blood, had bright eyes and an aura containing a strange excitement.
A thought flashed through his mind like lightning.
No wonder!
No wonder Tai Yi had sent the chaos bell away to protect the rear, while he himself was covered in injuries.
He even showed a madness of seeking battle and injury!
He was… seeking death!
In order to gain the opportunity for Nirvana!
He wanted to use the Ancestral Witch's hand to verify this path of Nirvana, to strive for a stronger future!
This decisiveness and courage, while shocking Di Jun, also stirred an indescribable heroic feeling and anticipation!
At this moment, the hundreds of millions of Yao Race troops, who could no longer hold back, finally erupted in earth-shattering cheers and congratulations:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor! Congratulations, Your Majesty the Eastern Emperor! Congratulations, Empress Xi He!"
"The Golden Crow Clan has comprehended the supreme Divine Ability of Nirvana, its Bloodline has sublimated, and its destiny is destined!"
"Rebirth through Nirvana, stronger through fire! The Yao Race will prosper forever!"
"Sixth Crown Prince Your Highness turned the tide, his Divine Ability is unparalleled, truly a blessing for our Yao Race!"
"The Crown Prince's Nirvana, the Golden Crow shines forever! The Yao Race prospers greatly!"
The tidal wave of cheers, like mountains and tsunamis, converged into a torrent, echoing through the clouds and shaking Great Desolate Land!
The previous suppression by the Ancestral Witches was swept away.
In its place was an unprecedented exhilaration and infinite yearning for the future!
Di Jun looked at Xi He, who was holding Lu Jun in her arms, crying tears of joy.
He looked at the eight Nirvana eggs, which carried hope and the future.
He looked at Tai Yi, who, though covered in blood, was radiant and full of fighting spirit.
Then, listening to the cheers of these hundreds of millions of Yao Race members, a heroic spirit surged in his chest.
He waved his large hand, his majestic voice overriding all the noise:
"Heaven bless the Golden Crow! Heaven bless the Yao Race!"
"All generals and soldiers, heed my command! Depart immediately and return to the Sun Star! To welcome the Crown Princes' return from Nirvana!"
