Perhaps it was because the pain from the past had been accumulated in his heart for too long, the little rabbit snuggled in Xu Zhoujiao's arms and cried for a long time.

It lasted so long that it seemed as if it wanted to shed all the tears that had been accumulated all at once.

Until its crying gradually became hoarse.

Finally, it ended hastily with a series of hiccups...

“Uh…..uh…uh uh….”

Hearing the burps coming out of his mouth one after another, a rare blush appeared on the little rabbit's face.

It hurriedly pulled up its big ears to cover its furry little face completely.

Xu Zhoujiao, who had been paying attention to the little rabbit's every move, couldn't help laughing at its slightly flustered and childish behavior. She patted the little rabbit's back and sighed in her heart:

Fortunately, I arrived not too late... Fortunately, the little rabbit who can only cry and laugh... is still alive...

After the hiccups subside.

Xu Zhoujiao stared at the little rabbit lying in her arms, still a little embarrassed, and asked softly:

"Are you feeling better?"

After getting the little rabbit's affirmative nod.

Xu Zhoujiao opened her red lips and continued the topic that had been interrupted before: "You just said that if I want to find the lost past again, I must revive this wilderness."

"why is that?"

"Because this is not only the entrance to the Hongmeng World, but also the only way out of the Hongmeng Furnace."

It’s great to see that the little rabbit knows so much about the Hongmeng Furnace that everyone fears.

Xu Zhoujiao couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked quietly, "What does the Hongmeng furnace look like?"

"The Hongmeng Furnace contains countless fragments of time and Hongmeng flames that can burn at any time. Behind those layers of time fragments, there are countless desires and turbid air, waiting for an opportunity to move. They will take advantage of the time when you are immersed in the entanglements of the past and cannot extricate yourself, and wait for the opportunity to devour your soul."

"So, what happens after being swallowed by desire and foul air?"

"Do you remember the black mists you saw outside the void? Then, you will end up with the same fate as them, constantly circling outside the void where time stops, until you find a soul with a pure heart and bewitch her to use for your own purposes."

Hearing that the Hongmeng furnace was so dangerous, looking at the soft and weak little rabbit in front of her, Xuzhou Jiao couldn't help but ask softly:

"Since this Hongmeng furnace is full of dangers, how did you survive it?"

The little rabbit, who had not looked back for a long time, was stunned when faced with Xu Zhoujiao's confusion and puzzlement...

It pondered for a moment, looking at the endless wasteland in front of it, and slowly said: "Back then, because I accidentally exposed my ability to fly, I attracted many extraordinary people who surrounded me and Chizhu."

"They said that I am a giant-eared human-rabbit formed by the essence of heaven and earth. I have a unique human pill in my body. If you eat one pill, you can live forever."

"That day, I was blocked by dozens of monks and rushed into a cave full of forbidden symbols while holding the red pearl in my arms."

"In the deepest part of the cave, I saw a mountain ghost entangled in thorns."

"She was imprisoned under an old altar, covered in blood. A thick and long iron chain passed straight through her heart, and blood dripped into the groove along the chain."

"In order to save her, I tried many ways. I pulled out the chains on the ground and gnawed the thorns full of poisonous thorns with my teeth..."

"But, it's all useless."

"Finally, I turned my attention to the group of monks who wanted to arrest me."

"I told them that as long as they were willing to help me rescue the mountain ghost, I could let them do whatever they wanted with it."

"Faced with such a huge temptation, the monks were tempted. They used all means and finally broke all the restraints for the mountain ghost."

"Just when I was about to dig out the human pill and hand it over to the monks as promised, Chizhu, who was hiding in the corner, rushed out. It grabbed the dagger tightly with its claws and stopped me from doing anything stupid."

"The scene later became extremely chaotic, with everyone fighting each other. In the chaos, I still couldn't escape the fate of being caught and having my elixir dug out."

"When I woke up again, I saw that the whole cave looked like it had been burned by a fire, and all the monks had turned into charcoal."

"Shan Gui and Chi Zhu, one of them was lying on the altar with all the blood drained out, and the other was lying in my arms with his heart cut open."

For the past several thousand years, the departure of the mountain ghost and Chizhu has always been a taboo that the little rabbit has suppressed in his heart.

Even today, when it recalls everything that happened after it woke up, it still can't let it go.

It always feels like:

If I hadn't taken the initiative to make a deal with that group of monks, then Shan Gui and Chi Zhu might not have died...

"So, you jumped into the Hongmeng furnace without hesitation, hoping to obtain Hongmeng's vitality and save them, right?"

The little rabbit nodded to Xu Zhoujiao's guess.

"In order to save the mountain ghost and the red pearl, I went to many places and after asking around, I finally found out the secret of Hongmeng Yuanqi being able to bring the dead back to life."

“But when I finally arrived at the God Realm carrying the bodies of the Mountain Ghost and Chizhu.”

"What I saw was the Hongmeng furnace that was about to fall to the ground."

"Countless turbid air and desires are wandering throughout the God Realm."

"In order to preserve the Hongmeng vitality inside, I used my body to resist the collapse of the Hongmeng furnace. With the obsession in my heart, I pushed the Hongmeng furnace back to its original place little by little."

"Then, I took advantage of the chaos in the God Realm and jumped down with Chizhu and Shan Gui."

"Maybe I'm lucky, or maybe a lot of the turbid air and desires in the Hongmeng furnace have escaped."

"In short, the Hongmeng furnace is very peaceful."

"After I turned over piece after piece of time fragments, I finally found the Hongmeng Yuanqi at the bottom of the Hongmeng Furnace."

"It was at this time that the primordial flames in the primordial furnace suddenly ignited without warning. Facing the overwhelming fire, I could only push Chizhu and Shan Gui into a secluded corner, and desperately stuffed the surrounding primordial energy into them."

"But unfortunately, no matter how hard I try, they show no signs of reviving."

"Until the fire consumes us..."

"When I woke up again, I was lying on the vast grassland in front of me, and I became the Heavenly Dao that governs the three thousand worlds."

"It was then that I realized that the legend of Hongmeng Yuanqi was true..."

"The reason why it doesn't work on the mountain ghost and the red pearl is because they chose to sacrifice themselves in order to save me from the brink of death."

"So they have no afterlife..."

After the little rabbit finished telling all his past stories, he slowly turned his gaze to Xuzhou Jiao behind him. Looking at her bright face, he could not help but think of the words that the mountain ghost left for him before leaving Peacock Valley:

"What the hell, if one day I can no longer be with you, then I will definitely find someone who is a hundred times or a thousand times better than me to accompany you."

In a trance, the little rabbit seemed to see the shadow of a mountain ghost on Xuzhou Jiao's body.

She still has the same curved eyebrows and eyes, like a crescent moon hanging high in the night sky, soft and bright. Her peaceful smile is like the ripples caused by the summer breeze blowing across the lake, one after another, until it reaches your heart.

"What the hell, do you like the person I found for you?"

"From now on, you should live a happier life and stop being like an old man with a stern face all the time!"

The mountain ghost's teasing tone was like a spring breeze, gently brushing across the little rabbit's already broken heart.

At this moment, a little red bird suddenly jumped onto the mountain ghost's shoulder, shaking the blue flame above its head, and chirped to the little rabbit:

"That's right. Look at your bitter and resentful face. You've been guarding that tree every day. You're almost growing hair on it."

"Although, I usually hate people who show off. But now, I just want to see you show off."

"After you get out, if you see someone bullying rabbits again, rush up and hit him with my big-eared melon seeds. Let him know that you rabbits are not to be messed with!"

As Chizhu kept telling him what to do, the cracks in the little rabbit's heart began to heal. For the first time, the sound of a beating heart could be heard from the chest that had been silent for thousands of years.

“Dong…Dong…Dong…Dong…”

Hearing the sound of the revived heartbeat, Chizhu stopped talking.

After exchanging a glance with the mountain ghost, it suppressed its reluctance and showed a relieved smile on its face: "Rabbit, you are a rabbit that can do great things. You can't always guard us and trap yourself in this small place."

"You should go out and take a look."

At this moment, the little rabbit, who had anticipated something, looked at the gradually fading outlines of the little red bird and the mountain ghost, and his red eyes became moist again...

The mountain ghost lowered his head slightly and gently placed a delicate kiss on the rabbit's forehead, murmuring his final farewell to the rabbit:

"What the hell, she's waiting for you, you should let it go..."

At the same time, Chizhu rubbed himself hard into the little rabbit's ears and whispered, "What's there to be worried about? Haven't I always been in your belly?"

"I've given you the only Phoenix Pearl, why don't you take me out to see it!"

"I'm almost suffocating staying in Peacock Valley every day..."

"tick~tick~"

"Wow~"

At the moment when the outlines of the mountain ghost and the red pearl completely disappeared, the clear blue sky and empty space began to drip with rootless water. The still river began to flow with the sound of gurgling water.

The wild grass that had originally turned yellow and withered was sprouting new shoots at lightning speed. From a distance, it looked like a green velvet carpet gradually covering the once lifeless wilderness.

At this moment, Xu Zhoujiao, who was outside the illusion, looked at the tender buds breaking through the soil at her feet and whispered:

"The Void Realm has revived..."

The little rabbit, who had already felt the reopening of the void, touched his beating heart and turned his gaze back to the river of time.

This time, it finally saw its own face on the flowing river...
