Chapter 2089: Romero Tribe ‘Prophet’
Chapter 2089: Romero Tribe ‘Prophet’
The Romero Tribe’s dwelling is shrouded by a massive array of mixed formations, so that ordinarily, even if someone passes by, they would not discover the ’hidden sanctuary’ where the tribe resides.
The dwelling of the Romero Tribe is located amidst surrounding mountains, a true ’utopia’.
Not only is it isolated from the world, it also boasts mountains and rivers, lush flowers and grasses, verdant trees, forming picturesque scenery that invisibly gives a strong sense of belonging.
Of course, this is only most of the scenery at the tribe’s dwelling place.
On the western side of the Romero Tribe’s dwelling, the air is filled with an incredibly scorching atmosphere, with temperatures so high it’s terrifying; an ordinary person venturing into it may very well be roasted before long.
The further one ventures, the higher the temperature rises.
And at the deepest part of the western Romero Tribe dwelling stands a vast altar, upon the platform in the center of the altar rests an immensely giant statue.
If Wyatt Barnes were here and saw this statue, he would surely be dumbfounded.
And in his mind would surely emerge a passage from an ancient text passed down from his home on Earth in a previous life, recorded in the ancient book "Classics of Mountains and Seas":
There is a bird in the world, it resembles a chicken, with five-colored markings, and it is called Emperor Romero!
Emperor Romero is the earliest name for the ’Phoenix’, also known in Wyatt’s ancient hometown legends as the ’King of All Birds’.
Generally speaking, males are called ’Feng’, females are called ’Huang’, and collectively they are known as ’Fenghuang’.
The Phoenix is just as famous as the ’Divine Dragon’ and, like the Divine Dragon, is a legendary existence!
In Wyatt’s ancient homeland on Earth, since ancient Qin and Han dynasties, the ’Dragon’ had gradually become the symbol of emperors, and empresses and concubines began to compare to the ’Feng’. The image of the Phoenix gradually became gender-neutral, wholly turning into the feminine.
The statue on the high platform at the center of the altar is a lifelike Phoenix, entirely fiery red, and it is unknown what material it is made of, constantly emanating scorching heat.
"That old fellow, he came so early?"
Before the altar, a beautiful woman sitting cross-legged in the void suddenly opens her eyes.
This beautiful woman’s pupils are not the ’black’ of ordinary humans, but ’fiery red’, and just a glance at her might be enough to make one feel as if they’re plunged into a fiery pit.
When the beautiful woman stood up, she also revealed the voluptuous figure hidden beneath her loose robe.
Moreover, her face, though not considered stunning beyond measure, is extremely captivating and very appealing.
Though plainly dressed, she still exudes an ’elegant and noble’ air.
"If only I met that girl earlier... the thought of her leaving soon really makes me reluctant."
As the beautiful woman murmured softly, her eyes also revealed a hint of reluctance, as if the ’girl’ she spoke of was about to leave her.
"Lord Seer!"
Suddenly, a respectful female voice came from outside the altar.
Whoosh!
Upon hearing the voice from outside, the beautiful woman flickered and then vanished into thin air.
When she reappeared, it was outside the altar, in front of a young woman in a cyan dress, and she asked indifferently, "What’s the matter?"
The young woman in cyan, when facing the beautiful woman, was respectful, "Lord Seer, ’Senior Oracle’ has arrived... He is now waiting outside our Romero Tribe’s dwelling."
"Hmm."
The beautiful woman nodded, with an air of ’I already knew’, "I am aware, let him wait outside... I will bring the person out to him shortly."
Upon hearing that the beautiful woman already knew, the young woman in cyan was not surprised, as if she was used to it.
After all, the beautiful woman before her was the ’Seer’ of their Romero Tribe, able to foresee the future, cut through the appearances of all beings, and in the eyes of the tribe members, an omnipotent existence.
Even the ’Clan Chief’ of their Romero Tribe showed utmost respect when meeting this Lord Seer.
Once the young woman in cyan left, the beautiful woman flickered once again, disappearing from where she stood.
When she reappeared, she had returned to the altar, and also to the back of the giant Phoenix statue.
Suddenly.
The beautiful woman sharply raised her hand.
Swish! Swish!
As the beautiful woman raised her hand, a ferocious crack appeared in midair, as if she had torn space open.
Immediately, she flickered and flew into the ferocious crack, which disappeared along with her.
If there were a second person here, witnessing this scene, they would certainly be dumbstruck, as if the beautiful woman were swallowed by the crack that appeared out of thin air.
However, the beautiful woman who flew into the crack was certainly not swallowed.
Now, she has entered the ’Holy Land’ that has been handed down within the Romero Tribe from ancient times.
The Romero Tribe’s Holy Land is similar to the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, also a ’False Dimensional Plane’, but it cannot be compared to the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land because it is just a very small false dimensional plane, also known as the Romero Tribe’s ’place of rebirth’.
Any Romero Tribe member with extraordinary talent is generally able to undergo ’rebirth’, acquiring a new life along with more powerful strength.
Their cultivation will also advance further compared to before the rebirth!
For example:
A Romero Tribe member whose talent is limited, and can cultivate to the ’Saint Immortal Third Metamorphosis’ but cannot progress further, upon undergoing ’rebirth’, can break through the shackles of her talent and achieve a breakthrough to the ’Saint Immortal Fourth Metamorphosis’ in one fell swoop!
The Romero Tribe’s place of rebirth consists of nothing but a fiery red ’sky’ and a fiery red ’vast ocean’.
The temperature here is even more exaggerated than outside. Not to mention ordinary people, even those with lower cultivation levels would evaporate into nothingness here in the blink of an eye!
The beautiful woman stands in the void as if nothing has happened.
It’s as though the environment here has no effect on her at all.
If you look closely, you can discover:
This large area of fiery red ocean is actually fiery red lava, constantly rolling and boiling, enough to show its extremely high temperature, making anyone who sees it shudder.
And the temperature of this space originates from it.
At this moment, the beautiful woman stands in the air, looking down at the vast sea-like lava beneath her... as if there’s something inside!
"Girl."
Suddenly, the beautiful woman speaks, addressing the sea-like lava below.
Her voice is not loud, yet it seems to contain a frightening penetrating power, as if it can penetrate all obstacles and reach the ears of the intended person.
From her words, could there actually be someone under this continuously bubbling lava?
Gurgle! Gurgle! Gurgle! Gurgle! Gurgle!
...
And moments after the beautiful woman spoke, the initially boiling yet somewhat calm lava began to roll and boil even more intensely.
The next moment.
Boom!!
Accompanied by a loud noise, a spot in the lava explodes, from which a fiery red figure shoots forth, seemingly merging with the lava from afar.
Emerging from the sea-like lava is a woman dressed in fiery red clothes, exuding waves of scorching heat, invisibly spreading an aura of power belonging to a strong individual.
"Senior Seer."
After she comes out, she appears not far from the beautiful woman and respectfully bows to her.
Her voice is gentle and melodious, seemingly containing infinite charm.
And her posture is graceful and perfect, making one feel an urge to come forward and cherish her.
The woman in red has long beautiful hair cascading down her shoulders and back like a waterfall.
Below the long hair is an exceptionally beautiful face, with brows like paintings, eyes like two points of Autumn Water, a delicate nose, red lips, and pearl-white teeth, her naturally serene features outline a perfect contour, breathtakingly beautiful.
Just like a fallen fairy!
If Wyatt Barnes were here, he would undoubtedly recognize her at a glance:
This woman in red, akin to a flame sprite, is none other than ’Winnie Romero’!
"Girl, you have completed the ’Nirvana’ in the Nirvana land of our Romero Tribe... You must realize that you are about to leave, right?"
The beautiful woman sighed softly.
"Senior Seer, has Uncle Master Destiny arrived?"
Upon hearing the beautiful woman’s words, Winnie Romero immediately guessed.
The elderly man who sent her here years ago once said that when she completed the ’Nirvana’ in the Romero Tribe, he would come to take her away.
"Yes."
Seeing Winnie Romero so astutely guessing the situation, the beautiful woman’s eyes filled with even more reluctance, as if unwilling to let Winnie Romero leave.
"Senior Seer, if I have time in the future... I’ll come back to see you."
Seeing the reluctance in the beautiful woman’s eyes, Winnie Romero comforted her in this way.
"There will be no chance."
However, upon hearing Winnie Romero’s words, the beautiful woman, though somewhat comforted, shook her head, "Letting you in that day was for the entire Romero Tribe to follow the ancestor’s last wish and repay the kindness we owed ’Breezy Wind’, the Sect Leader of Seven Terminating Sect years ago..."
"Allowing you into the Nirvana land to aid your Nirvana was because there is a trace of our tribe’s Seer lineage in your blood."
"Now that the Romero Tribe has repaid the kindness owed to the Seven Terminating Sect, it is utterly impossible to let you in again."
The beautiful woman continued to speak.
"Senior Seer, didn’t you say I have the bloodline of your lineage? Could I not be seen as a member of the Romero Tribe?"
Winnie Romero asked.
"If you wish to be considered a member of the Romero Tribe, you cannot leave the tribe!"
The beautiful woman looked at Winnie Romero, "But, are you willing to stay in the Romero Tribe for a lifetime until you grow old, or ascend to the heavens?"
Winnie Romero fell silent.
Stay in the Romero Tribe for a lifetime until old age, or ascend to the heavens?
Wouldn’t that mean she could never see the man she longs for with all her heart again?
She could not accept this, so she shook her head.
Upon seeing this, the beautiful woman was not surprised.
