&;;&; When the four innate experts saw the strange bird that crashed onto the ground, they looked shocked and puzzled, not understanding what was going on.
Yi Wanrong didn't know either. Even though he was right next to Wuyou, he didn't sense anything unusual.
Not far from where the strange bird landed, Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, and then quickly guessed what was going on. He couldn't help but feel even more shocked. He didn't feel anything abnormal just now, he only saw the strange bird falling directly from the sky.
As for the record of Dao Body, he had only seen it in ancient books before. It was really unbelievable to see this scene with his own eyes today.
From the southwest, another strange bird screamed anxiously and flew over quickly. However, just as it was about to get closer, its body was directly sealed by an irresistible force, making it unable to move even half a minute.
Below the maple forest, due to the presence of the five innates, the beast tide quickly receded. Except for the few disciples who had been swallowed by the two strange birds, the rest of the people were not seriously injured.
Wuyou waved his hand to disperse the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy that was pressing on the two strange birds. After two frightened cries, the two strange birds immediately fluttered their wings and left, not daring to stay for another second.
The two strange birds were not far away. Ning Chen had been staring carefully, and finally noticed a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation at this moment. It was very weak and difficult to detect if you didn't feel it carefully.
The five innates also guessed that there was a strong person helping secretly. They were shocked and at the same time a little worried. The person who could silently attack under their eyes must either have a cultivation level much higher than them or possess some special skill.
No one speculated about Dao Body because it was too far away. The last time Four Extremes Realm appeared and Dao Body was unknown was thousands of years ago.
Everyone continued to walk deeper into Phoenix Perch Mountain, being more careful while walking. Phoenix Perch Mountain was more dangerous than they imagined. They had already encountered big trouble not long after they entered, and nothing might happen inside.
After walking for a long time, the sky gradually dimmed, the sun set and the moon rose, and everyone was about to face the first night after entering Phoenix Perch Mountain.
The five innates also paid full attention. They knew very well that in such an unknown place, night was the most dangerous time.
The bonfire was raised, and the scorching flames danced in the dark night, adding a little confidence to everyone who had been nervous all day long. Although the martial arts had reached the level of everyone present, there was no need to light a fire to keep warm or drive away wild beasts. However, as one of the signs of human beings moving toward civilization, the appearance of fire will always give people comfort.
Ning Chen stood on a maple tree, looked into the distance, and estimated that according to their current traveling speed, it would take at least a day and a night to enter the deepest part of Phoenix Perch Mountain.
The phoenix is a mythical beast that lives in legends and cannot be seen in the human world. If it were not recorded in ancient books and he had personally seen a drop of Phoenix Blood, he would have difficulty believing that such a thing as the phoenix really existed.
Rumor has it that the three Parasol Tree plants are in the deepest part of Phoenix Perch Mountain, and the phoenix is perched on one of them.
Everyone took the time to rest. After the turmoil during the day, people from all major factions finally began to consciously close the distance. Half of them were resting and the other half were on guard.
Ning Chen is relatively far away. His cultivation level is only Houtian Realm Fifth-Rank. He is usually inconspicuous, but here he is so eye-catching. Those who dare to come in will have the lowest level of Wuyou, but they also have the level of Sixth-Rank. Moreover, there is an innate protector beside him.
The night was lonely and cold, and the chill was overwhelming. From the depths of Phoenix Perch Mountain, the roars of beasts kept coming out. Every sound was deeply shocking, as if it was a beast from the ancient times.
The expressions of the five innates became more and more solemn, and their vigilance became stronger. They looked into the depths of the maple forest, their auras flowing around them, ready to take action at any time.
Behind Ning Chen, a terrifying big snake of more than 20 feet appeared. It was black and red, with legs on its body and a bulge on its head. It gradually looked like it was transforming into a dragon.
The giant snake took off, its mouth like a basin, and swallowed the human in front of it. In an instant, the wind howled and the fishy smell filled the sky.
Ning Chen frowned slightly, moved his feet, and the figure disappeared, retreating hundreds of feet away.
However, the giant snake followed closely, its tail propped on the ground, its body soared in the air, and it quickly swept forward.
"Ignorance of good and evil"
Ning Chen snorted coldly, stopped retreating, waved his hand, and the green Ink Sword flew out from behind and turned into a stream of light and fell into his hand.
The giant snake roared muffledly, its eyes were cold and ruthless, its huge body swung past, and large areas of the surrounding woods collapsed.
The swords in Ning Chen's hands moved, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy gathered rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the sword light extended, reaching ten feet away.
With a sudden strike of the sword, the earth was shattered and the mountains collapsed. Amid the flying sand and rocks, a shrill cry echoed throughout Phoenix Perch Mountain, shaking people's hearts.
"Is there another innate?"
At this moment, the five innates also felt the powerful Sword Intent erupting in the distance. Their figures flashed and followed the screams to the place of battle.
As soon as I saw it, there was no one left. The half body of the giant snake left on the ground was still bleeding with blood. The maple leaves were red, and the blood was even redder, which made people frightened.
The five innates looked at each other, feeling a little more wary in their hearts. There was no doubt that this must have been done by one innate.
Such extraordinary sword cultivation is rare even among innates. In addition to the strong man who secretly attacked during the day, there are at least two innates who have not yet shown up. It seems that there are more people peeking at Phoenix Blood than imagined.
The five people went back quickly, not daring to leave for too long. This place was full of dangers, and it was really not something that their disciples who had not yet entered Xiantian could handle.
Far away, Ning Chen appeared, holding the other half of the snake body in his hand, flicking it and throwing it to the ground with a bang.
"There will be no next time," Ning Chen warned coldly.
The eyes of the half-length giant snake were full of fear. After being freed, the snake's body swung and quickly dragged the injured body away.
The roaring sound in the middle of the night still continued, and people from all major sects were terrified, fearing that these monsters would appear.
Fortunately, the frightening night passed, and nothing terrible happened. As the sky lit up, these roars gradually became silent.
After daybreak, everyone continued on their way, but some people decided to leave. After a day and night of fear, many people could no longer hold on.
The five innate beliefs remained firm and unwavering, speeding up their journey and striving to reach their destination earlier.
However, everything always goes against expectations. In the remaining day and night, all the major sects encountered big troubles, and the casualties of their disciples also began to increase.
As we go deeper into Phoenix Perch Mountain, the number of behemoths with extremely strong territorial awareness increases, and some even reach the level of the innately powerful human beings, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
Among the five innate strengths, Yi Wanrong is the strongest and has reached the peak of Second Tribulation. The other four are all in the early stages of Second Tribulation or the peak of First Tribulation.
The power of the giant beast was beyond expectations, and the five of them were once embarrassed. However, after all, humans are the primates of all things. Even if their innate conditions are not as good as these giant beasts, with their cultivation and magical weapons in their hands, they still have a considerable advantage after adapting.
However, those disciples with weaker cultivation were not so lucky. It was impossible for the few innates to come to help every time. By the time the group reached the deepest part near Phoenix Perch Mountain, most of the people who came were already gone.
Ning Chen walked behind everyone, but encountered no further trouble along the way, and arrived together smoothly.
There was no maple tree in the thousand-foot square ahead. On the lush grassland, three giant sycamore trees appeared before everyone's eyes. They were connected horizontally in a line, which was very majestic.
On a sycamore tree in the middle, a red sacred bird lay quietly on the tree. Its perfect and flawless figure and brilliant fiery red tail feathers all indicated the identity of its owner.
Faint flames burned around the Phoenix, as bright as blood, but the giant sycamore tree was not affected in any way and showed no damage at all.
Elegant, noble and perfect, this is everyone's first impression.
Phoenix is the darling of the Creator. It is perfect and deserves almost all the praises in the world. Even in myths and legends, it is an existence on an equal footing with the gods.
The five innate experts looked at the unusually quiet phoenix on the giant sycamore tree. At this moment, they felt a little hesitant.
The phoenix is equally famous for its elegance and power. This phoenix looks peaceful and peaceful at this moment. Who knows how terrifying it will be once it feels threatened.
Just as the five of them were hesitating, the three peak ninth-level experts quietly retreated into the maple forest, using cover to get behind the Phoenix's field of vision, ready to fight.
They know very well that once the five innates take action, they will have no chance. They might as well take action now, obtain Phoenix Blood, and immediately escape for their lives. In this completely unknown Phoenix Perch Mountain, if a ninth-level peak powerhouse wants to escape, even innates may not be able to catch up.
Thousands of feet away from the sycamore tree, the five of them were still thinking about how to deal with it. Suddenly, three Dao Sword lights illuminated the sky and the earth and flew rapidly towards the phoenix above the sycamore tree.
At this moment, the expressions of the five people suddenly changed, secretly thinking that they were getting worse.
Sure enough, the eyes of the phoenix, which had been calm and peaceful just now, flashed with a flash of anger. The next moment, a phoenix cry resounded throughout the world, Fire Phoenix spread its wings, and the sky was filled with flames.
The terrifying flames, Burning Heaven Boiling Sea, before the three figures even got close, they were surrounded by the sea of fire and turned into ashes in the painful struggle.
The enraged Phoenix showed unparalleled power and instantly killed three peak ninth-level experts, shocking all five innates.
"Retreat"
Without a trace of hesitation, the five people quickly retreated with their disciples, temporarily avoiding the sharp edge of Fire Phoenix.
However, how could humans compete with the phoenix in terms of speed? Yi Wanrong and Wuyou had just escaped not far away when the cry of the phoenix sounded behind them.
Seeing this, Wuyou sighed softly and broke away from Yi Wanrong's hand. He stood in the void, his long blue-green skirt floating, and his delicate hands were raised. In an instant, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy gathered around him crazily, forming a huge cage, trapping the angry Fire Phoenix.
Everyone was shocked, including Yi Wanrong. No one thought that this gentle and delicate woman was actually the innate strong man who took action in secret.
