Black Myth: The Legend of Tianpeng Seeking Demons

Zhu Feifei returned to the central square of the ancient city and found that Queen Jingjue and Lingxuan were already waiting there.

"You're all back!" Queen Jingjue's eyes flashed with joy when she saw Zhu Feifei. "How was it? Did you get the 'Fragment of Destiny'?"

"Of course!" Zhu Feifei proudly waved the "Fragment of Destiny" in her hand.

It was an irregularly shaped crystal fragment, emitting a faint blue light, echoing the Jingjue Stone that the Queen of Jingjue had obtained earlier. "With me, Old Pig... no, Zhu Feifei, on the case, what can't be accomplished?"

"Hmph, stop being so vain!" The voice of the Ringwraith White echoed in his mind. "If it weren't for Coral Girl, you would have been eaten by the 'Deep Sea Demon King's' pet long ago!"

"Hehe, that's because I, Old Pig... Zhu Feifei, am lucky!" Zhu Feifei thought to himself with pride.

"And you? Did you obtain the 'Fragment of Destiny'?" He looked at Queen Jingjue and Lingxuan and asked.

Queen Jingjue smiled slightly and took out a crimson fragment from her bosom. It was shaped like a burning flame and emitted a scorching aura: "I defeated the fire behemoth in the 'Molten Hell' and obtained this 'Fragment of Destiny'."

She looked at Lingxuan and asked, "Lingxuan, what about you?"

Ling Xuan remained silent for a moment, then slowly took out a crystal-clear fragment from her bosom. It was shaped like a falling snowflake and exuded a cold aura.

"I fought the Ice Queen in the 'Frozen Snowfield' and finally obtained this 'Fragment of Destiny'." Ling Xuan's tone was calm, but Zhu Feifei and the Queen of Jingjue could both sense the hardship hidden in his words.

"Great! We've all gotten the 'Fragments of Destiny'!" Zhu Feifei exclaimed excitedly. "Can we now open the final treasure?"

“Wait,” the Queen of Jingjue interrupted him, “have you noticed that these three ‘Fragments of Destiny’... seem to... be able to be pieced together?”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Feifei and Ling Xuan quickly took out their respective "Fragments of Destiny".

Sure enough, although the three fragments were different in shape, their edges fit together perfectly, as if they were originally a single, complete gemstone.

"What...what's going on?" Zhu Feifei asked in confusion.

"I understand!" A flash of realization crossed the Queen of Jingjue's eyes. "Legend has it that the 'Fragment of Destiny' was originally one, but was later divided into three parts, representing the three realms of 'Heaven,' 'Earth,' and 'Humanity.' Only by combining the three fragments into one can its power be truly unleashed!"

"Then... what are we waiting for? Let's put them together quickly!" Zhu Feifei said impatiently.

Queen Jingjue nodded, then placed the three "Fragments of Destiny" together.

The moment the three fragments touched, they instantly merged together, transforming into a single, complete gem that emitted a dazzling light.

The gemstone is shaped like a perfect circle, with an asterisk-shaped pattern in the center, resembling a mysterious symbol.

"This...this is...the 'Wheel of Fortune'..." the Queen of Jingjue murmured to herself, "The divine artifact recorded in the ancient books of Jingjue...capable of changing fate..."

"'Wheel of Fortune'?" Zhu Feifei looked at the magical gem before her, her heart filled with curiosity. "How... how do you use this thing?"

Just then, the entire ancient city suddenly began to shake violently, as if it were about to collapse.

"Oh no! This ancient city... is about to collapse!" Queen Jingjue's expression changed drastically. "We must leave here as soon as possible!"

"Wait! The 'Wheel of Fortune'... hasn't been used yet!" Zhu Feifei said hurriedly, "We... we can't just give up like this!"

"This is not the time to talk about this!" Queen Jingjue said anxiously. "We must save our lives first!"

“But…” Zhu Feifei wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the Queen of Jingjue.

"No buts!" Queen Jingjue said firmly, "Let's go!"

She pulled Zhu Feifei along, and together with Ling Xuan, they ran towards the exit of the ancient city.

Just as they were about to leave the ancient city, a cold voice suddenly rang out behind them:

"Want to leave? It's not that easy!"

The three turned around and saw that Black Whirlwind had appeared behind them with a group of Black Wind Bandits.

Black Whirlwind wore a ferocious smile, and the giant cleaver in his hand gleamed coldly in the dim light.

"Queen of Jingjue, the 'Wheel of Destiny'... is mine!" he said greedily. "You... can't escape!"

"Black Whirlwind! You...you're still alive?!" Zhu Feifei exclaimed in surprise. He never expected that this guy's vitality would be so tenacious.

"Heh heh, you think you can kill me? Not so easy!" Black Whirlwind laughed smugly. "I, Black Whirlwind... have... an 'immortal body'!"

"Immortality?" Zhu Feifei and the Queen of Jingjue exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt in each other's eyes.

"Prepare to die!" Black Whirlwind roared, brandishing his giant cleaver as he charged toward the three.

Zhu Feifei, Queen Jingjue, and Ling Xuan immediately engaged in battle, launching a fierce fight against the Black Wind Bandits.

However, at that moment, the tremors of the ancient city grew more and more violent, and a huge boulder fell from the sky, crashing down on the Queen of Jingjue.

"Watch out!" Zhu Feifei exclaimed and rushed over to push the Queen of Jingjue away.

With a loud "Boom!", the stone crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Zhu Feifei felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if a thousand-pound weight had slammed into him, causing his blood and qi to surge wildly like a runaway horse.

However, at this moment, he had no time to care about his own injuries. He endured the pain and used his hands and feet to struggle to get up from the ground.

He turned anxiously to look at the Queen of Jingjue beside him, his eyes filled with concern and worry, and called out anxiously, "Your Majesty, are you alright? Are you injured?" His voice trembled slightly with tension.

The Queen of Jingjue gently shook her head, a reassuring smile playing on her lips, and softly replied:

"I'm fine, thank you so much, Zhu Feifei." Her beautiful face looked especially captivating at that moment.

Hearing that the Queen was safe and sound, Zhu Feifei finally felt relieved and let out a long sigh of relief. A simple, silly smile appeared on her face as she muttered to herself:

"Hehe, it's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright... As long as Her Majesty the Queen is safe and sound, what is my little injury!"

Just then, Zhu Feifei suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being tightly coiled by a cold, venomous snake. An unprecedented sense of crisis surged into her heart.

His hair stood on end and his scalp tingled. Without thinking, he instinctively turned his head sharply.

He was terrified when he saw it.

The enormous, ferocious-looking Black Whirlwind was raising a gleaming giant cleaver and slashing down at him with the force of Mount Tai crushing an egg!

The machete drew a sharp arc in the air, creating gusts of wind and a continuous whistling sound.
