As the divine herbs and celestial creatures appeared in the Haotian Mirror, the crowd was mesmerized.
"That's a Blood Zhu Fruit, a Mystic Spirit Grass, a Thunder Bamboo, and a Sun Mystic Wood..."
Everyone's eyes were filled with burning desire as they recognized the rare herbs growing like common weeds.
"Look over there! Is that the legendary divine beast, Bai Ze?"
A snow-white creature with a lion's body, goat's beard, and two horns emitting auspicious energy appeared on the screen, exactly matching the descriptions of the legendary Bai Ze.
As Xiao Fan's perspective shifted, more divine beasts and celestial birds came into view—Vermilion Birds, Bi Fang, Chongming Birds, Qilin...
The spectators were overwhelmed with awe.
With the increasing appearance of celestial beings and divine plants, everyone felt numb to the spectacle. Undoubtedly, Xiao Fan was in the celestial realm, a place beyond any worldly paradise.
For ages, people had longed to see the celestial realm, a place that seemed like a myth, as no one from the lower realms had ever witnessed it. Now, they had the chance to see it through Xiao Fan's eyes, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
People worldwide looked up at the Haotian Mirror in the sky, putting aside all other matters. Nothing was more important than witnessing the celestial realm.
"Who would have thought that the Nether Demon Emperor Xiao Fan once went to the celestial realm!" someone exclaimed.
"Such celestial fate is truly enviable," others echoed.
A question lingered in everyone's mind: Did Xiao Fan's severing of the celestial road relate to his journey to the celestial realm?
Eager for answers, all eyes were glued to the Haotian Mirror, fearing to miss any crucial detail.
Those closely connected to Xiao Fan, especially the empresses, were deeply concerned about what happened to him in the celestial realm. They believed that the reasons behind Xiao Fan's transformation into the Nether Demon Emperor must be hidden in his experiences there.
They hoped to uncover the true cause of his actions in the celestial realm.
The Empress of Yaochi watched the scenes in the Haotian Mirror with a grave expression. Xiao Fan going to the celestial realm was something she had never anticipated.
She felt a pang of jealousy. Xiao Fan didn't deserve such celestial fate. If he had died in the Demon Emperor's legacy, none of the subsequent events would have happened, and she wouldn't have been separated from her husband for so long.
Indeed, Xiao Fan's fate was unyielding; no matter how much he suffered, he didn't die. With a mix of resentment and curiosity, she continued to watch the Haotian Mirror, eager to see what Xiao Fan experienced in the celestial realm.
Inside the Haotian Mirror.
Xiao Fan, overwhelmed and confused, wondered if he had reached the celestial realm after death. He questioned his current state, existing without a physical or spiritual form. Why did his consciousness persist?
Unable to find answers, he decided to explore the celestial scenery, marveling at the breathtaking sights.
Everywhere he went, celestial creatures roamed freely, and divine plants grew abundantly. The sheer magnificence of the celestial realm left him in awe.
He soon felt the summoning power again, guiding him forward. Flying over countless celestial mountains and through clouds with celestial cranes, he journeyed far without knowing the distance.
Finally, his consciousness halted before a colossal celestial mountain, the most ethereal and grand he had seen. Surrounded by mist and divine energy, a serene celestial palace stood on the mountain, exuding a sense of isolation.
Xiao Fan sensed the presence of a celestial being inside the palace. He hadn't encountered any celestial beings so far, despite seeing numerous divine creatures.
Driven by curiosity, his consciousness drifted towards the palace.
Inside a pavilion, a woman of unparalleled beauty, with crystal-clear skin and snow-white complexion, leaned against a jade window, gazing at the sea of clouds with vacant eyes. Her simple attire and indifferent demeanor only enhanced her otherworldly charm.
Her beauty was beyond description, surpassing any mortal comparison.
Outside the Haotian Mirror.
Everyone was captivated by her beauty.
"Is this a real celestial maiden? She's so beautiful! I wonder if she's more beautiful than the Divine Empress?"
Comparisons arose between the celestial maiden in the Haotian Mirror and the Divine Empress, who was also believed to be from the celestial realm. However, the Divine Empress's true appearance remained veiled in divine light, leaving a sense of regret among the viewers.
