God-level boss: traveling to another world
Chapter 234 Stubbornness is not necessarily a bad thing
Phoenix Nirvana
In an ancient and mysterious world, there is a beautiful and powerful phoenix. It has gorgeous feathers and wings like burning flames. Every time it spreads its wings and flies, it can arouse the amazement of the world.
This phoenix lives on the top of a high mountain, where clouds and mists linger and the air is filled with fairy air. It is the guardian of this land and a sacred symbol in the hearts of all living beings.
However, the passage of time brought an unprecedented disaster. Dark forces rose quietly and eroded every corner of the world. Forests withered, rivers dried up, and all lives were destroyed. Phoenix stepped forward and started a fierce battle with the dark forces.
But the power of darkness was too strong, and the Phoenix suffered heavy damage in the battle. Its feathers lost their former brilliance, its flaming wings became dull, and even its vitality was rapidly fading.
The phoenix returned to its nest with a lot of pain. It knew that its life was coming to an end, but it was unwilling to let the world fall into darkness. So it made a decision - to be reborn in Nirvana.
The Phoenix used up its last bit of strength to ignite its body. The raging fire instantly surrounded it, and it struggled painfully in the flames, but its eyes were full of determination and hope.
The flames burned for three days and three nights, and when everything calmed down, only a pile of ashes remained. All living creatures thought that the phoenix had disappeared and fell into deep despair.
However, at dawn on the fourth day, a faint light appeared in the ashes. The light gradually became stronger, and a young phoenix slowly stood up from the ashes. Its body was still fragile, and its feathers were not yet fully grown, but its eyes flashed with the same determination as the previous phoenix.
The newborn phoenix began its long journey of growth. It trained its wings in the valley, tempered its will under the waterfall, and forged ahead in the wind and rain. It constantly absorbed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and gradually restored its strength.
As time went by, the phoenix grew up. Its feathers became brilliant again, and its wings burned with flames again. It felt that the power within it had surpassed any time before.
When the dark forces wreaked havoc again, the Phoenix spread its wings and flew back to the battlefield. This time, it rushed into the darkness with endless strength and courage with an unstoppable momentum. Flame and darkness intertwined with each other, and in the end, the light of the Phoenix defeated the darkness, and the world regained its vitality.
The forests turned green again, the rivers began to flow again, and all creatures cheered and celebrated the Phoenix's victory.
The story of the Phoenix's rebirth has been passed down through the world and has become a symbol of hope and courage. It tells people that no matter how great the difficulties are, as long as they have firm beliefs and an unyielding spirit, they will be able to overcome the darkness and usher in the dawn of rebirth.
After that, the Phoenix continued to protect the world, and its legend was passed down forever, inspiring generation after generation of creatures to move forward bravely and not fear any difficulties or obstacles.
The Most Beautiful Concubine
In the long history of the Tang Dynasty, there was a woman who was known as the most beautiful concubine. Her beauty and legendary story are fascinating.
This imperial concubine was named Yang Yuhuan, also known as Taizhen. She was born in Shuzhou and showed extraordinary beauty and intelligence since she was young. The Yang family was a noble family. Although the family fell into decline, the good family background cultivated her elegant temperament.
Yang Yuhuan was born with natural beauty, with skin as white as snow, eyes as bright as stars, and a cherry-like mouth without any makeup. Her beauty lies not only in her appearance, but also in her graceful demeanor and gentle temperament.
In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan, Yang Yuhuan met Emperor Xuanzong's 18th son, Prince Shou Li Mao, by chance. Li Mao fell in love with her at first sight, and at the request of his mother, Consort Wu Hui, Emperor Xuanzong agreed to let Li Mao marry Yang Yuhuan as his concubine. After marriage, the two lived a sweet and happy life.
However, the turning point of fate came unexpectedly. In the 24th year of Kaiyuan, Wu Huifei, the favorite concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, passed away, and there was no concubine in the harem that could attract Emperor Xuanzong's heart. Someone suggested that Yang's daughter was "naturally beautiful and suitable for serving in the imperial court." So, in the 28th year of Kaiyuan, Emperor Xuanzong sent an envoy to take Yang Yuhuan to the Hot Spring Palace in Mount Li. After the two met, Emperor Xuanzong was very pleased and kept Yang Yuhuan by his side to serve.
In order to nominally sever Yang Yuhuan's relationship with Prince Shou, Xuanzong issued an imperial decree, ordering her to become a female Taoist priest, with the Taoist name Taizhen. Afterwards, Xuanzong brought her into the palace as a Taoist priest, and favored her as much as Wu Huifei in the past, and everyone in the palace called her "Niangzi".
In the fourth year of Tianbao, Xuanzong first married Wei to Li Mao, and then officially canonized Yang Yuhuan as a concubine. At this time, Yang Yuhuan was only 27 years old, and Xuanzong was 61 years old.
Yang Yuhuan was favored by Emperor Xuanzong not only because of her beauty, but also because they shared a common interest in art. She was good at singing and dancing, and was proficient in music, especially the famous Tang Dynasty court dance "Rainbow Skirt and Feathered Coat Dance", which was rumored to be composed by Emperor Xuanzong, and the imperial concubine also performed the dance. Her dancing posture was graceful, like a fairy descending to the earth, intoxicating.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty doted on Yang Guifei to the extreme. In order to let Yang Guifei taste fresh lychees, he ordered the post horses from Shu to travel thousands of miles to Chang'an every year to ensure that the color and flavor of the lychees would remain unchanged. "A horseman in red dust makes the concubine smile, no one knows that the lychees are coming", this poem by Du Mu vividly describes this scene.
Under her favor, the Yang family also received many favors. Her uncles and cousins were all given high positions, and her three sisters were given the titles of Lady of Korea, Lady of Guo, and Lady of Qin. They were given houses in the capital, were allowed to enter and leave the palace freely, and received generous rewards every month.
However, the beautiful face and supreme favor did not bring Yang Yuhuan long-term happiness. In the fifteenth year of Tianbao, the Anshi Rebellion broke out, which broke the prosperity and tranquility of the Tang Dynasty.
During the escape, when passing through Maweiyi, the imperial guards mutinied. Faced with the angry soldiers, Emperor Xuanzong had no choice but to order Yang Guifei to be hanged. In this way, this most beautiful concubine who was once loved by thousands of people died, ending her short but legendary life.
The story of Yang Yuhuan has become the material for the writings of later generations of literati. Her beauty, talent and love story with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang have been passed down by people. Her existence is not only a beautiful scenery in the history of the Tang Dynasty, but also the eternal pursuit and endless reverie of beauty in people's hearts.
The Legend of Yang Yuhuan
In the glorious picture of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Yang Yuhuan is like a shining pearl, shining with brilliant and legendary light.
The daughter of the Yang family has grown up. Yang Yuhuan is naturally beautiful and stunning. Her every frown and smile seems to make everything in the world fall in love with her.
By chance, she entered the palace, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang fell in love with her at first sight. From then on, she was favored by the emperor and became a highly respected imperial concubine.
She lived a luxurious and colorful life in the palace. Gorgeous clothes and exquisite food were just commonplace. However, her charm was far more than her appearance. She was proficient in music and good at dancing. Her colorful feather dance was like a fairy descending to the world, intoxicating everyone.
In order to win her favor, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty spared no effort and money to transport lychees over thousands of miles. Her favor also made the Yang family powerful.
But the good times didn't last long. An Lushan rebelled and the An-Shi Rebellion spread across the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Xuanzong took her with him and fled. At Mawei Slope, the angry soldiers pointed their spearheads at Yang Yuhuan, believing that she was the source of the country's misfortune.
In desperation, Emperor Xuanzong reluctantly ordered the death of his beloved concubine. At that moment, Yang Yuhuan's life was like a withered flower, and she died.
Her life was as brilliant as fireworks but short. Her beauty and talent became a legendary symbol of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. Her story, passed down by later generations, is full of emotion, both for her peerless beauty and her tragic fate.
