Standing outside the tomb of the sacred tree, Rhodes looked around and saw a forest of huge trees. The forked branches were dotted with bright flames. On the branches, groups of firebirds could be seen, and there were four
Flying, little elves turned into flames.
Different from the fire elves in hell who were born in the blazing fire of sin, the elves here were born in pure fire. They have gorgeous wings like butterflies and their bodies are like human beings that have been shrunk several times. If you look closely, you can see
Seeing their flawless and beautiful faces is comparable to the real elves living in Eli in Rhode's memory.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Rhodes felt something in his heart for a moment. In the past, everything about the Phoenix was completely destroyed by the heroes who thirsted for the blood of the Phoenix. The sacred forest where the Phoenix once lived eventually turned into dead branches.
There are lifeless graves all over the place. However, this is not the case in the current time. As the traces of the hero are completely erased by Eve, the phoenixes in this time have not been harmed by the hero. They are still living well in this dense forest.
, enjoying the worship of all fire element creatures, it is the most noble divine bird.
And this also means that it seems a little inappropriate to call this place the sacred tree tomb. Rhodes wants to regain the power of the fire element monarch in the sacred tree forest where the Phoenix lives. I'm afraid it will be a waste.
Less obstacles.
As if they noticed the unusual aura on Rhodes' body, the firebirds who were playing leisurely in the forest all locked their sharp eyes on Rhodes, sizing up this outsider who did not belong to the plane of fire element at all. As the leader among legendary creatures, the phoenix itself has extremely powerful power and can be reborn from the flames countless times. Not only that, if the phoenix burns its entire body of blood and essence at the cost of giving up its soul, it can use this power of rebirth from the fire.
, affects other organisms.
As a phoenix that has not yet completed its transformation, the firebird has inherited the same power as the phoenix, but only part of it. To gain the ability to be reborn from the ashes, the firebird needs to complete a complete transformation in the fire. The same is true for the firebird.
Beings that are difficult to provoke, even legendary creatures, would not dare to easily provoke any fire bird in the fire elemental plane.
Rhodes seemed to know the habits of the firebird very well. In the past, he went to the place where the Phoenix fell, trying to find traces of the Phoenix, but in the end he got the news that the Phoenix was extinct.
Speaking of which, the hero who made the Phoenix disappear in the past also had a lot to do with Rhodes. He was the original owner of the Ghost King's cloak, the vampire hero Degar. From the mouth of the tombkeeper at the place where the Phoenix fell, Rhodes knew
The story of Degar, the reason why he killed almost all phoenixes was just to use the power of phoenixes to resurrect his dead lover.
If Rhodes remembers correctly, in the story told by the tombkeeper, the culprit who killed Degar's lover was the demon king in charge of fire in the depths of hell, named Flem Ifrit Sultan.
Evil exists, and she is in Rhode's hands now.
Under the judgment of the Holy Angel, even Flame was unable to resist the power of fate. In the end, only the flames were silenced, leaving only an elemental core that no longer shines. And the elemental core that belongs to her
, but was collected by Rhodes and brought to the fire elemental plane.
As the soul completely disappeared, Flem's elemental core also gradually lost its temperature. Even the blazing fire elemental plane could not rekindle this elemental core that had lost its power. But no matter what, she was still in charge.
The elemental monarch who has been in power for countless years, even if there is only one elemental core left, there is a connection with the fire elemental authority. As long as he follows the guidance of the elemental core, Rhodes can find the whereabouts of the fire elemental authority. Thinking of the power of the Phoenix bloodline that makes people reborn from the ashes, Rhodes couldn't help but look at the cold elemental core in his hand. If there was a way to reawaken Flam, Rhodes wouldn't mind trying it.
. Rhodes only had a partial understanding of the true power of the Phoenix bloodline. Thinking about the ability to be reborn from the ashes, not even the Phoenix could use it at will.
In the past, the hero Degal chose to set foot in the sacred forest where the Phoenix lived in order to bring back his dead lover. Although Rhodes was not for this reason, he secretly made a similar choice to Degal. p>
The former owner of the Ghost King's cloak, the ancient hero Degar with the scarlet eyes, tasted the bitter consequences of his own power. His scarlet eyes not only cursed the phoenix, but also caused the sacred birds in the flames to turn into vicious vampires.
, even his lover, who had gone through hardships and finally regained his life, was completely cursed by his unintentional glance and became a member of the undead.
Degal, filled with regrets, gave up the scarlet eyes belonging to the hero and completely severed himself from his heroic specialty. In another time, the scarlet eyes belonging to Rhodes were inherited from Degal.
Now, Rhodes can only hope that he will not make the same mistakes as that hero.
Rhodes clearly knew that everything in the current time was just a part of the illusion. Whether it was Andor or Flam, they were not like this at all in their original time and space. But the moment they really saw the flames silence, Rhodes
De was still very unbearable, and no matter how hard he maintained his rationality, he would still feel a little touched in his heart.
Although Rhodes did not come here specifically to resurrect Fromm, if the opportunity is right in front of him, Rhodes would not mind giving it a try.
Just as Rhodes was thinking about it, the gray elemental core in his hand felt a little touched at this moment. A force guided Rhodes to the center of the sacred forest, where there was something that Rhodes wanted deeply.
The authority of the fire element attributed here.
The being who controls the authority of the fire element will become the true monarch of the fire element. Facing the Holy Judgment Angel who dominates all living beings, Rhodes is simply unable to challenge. In order to ensure that the Doomsday Blade can be successfully cast, Rhodes must use the power of the authority of the fire element.
Only when you get it in your hands can you find a chance to win.
The Holy Angel did not pursue him. This discovery, instead of making Rhodes feel relieved, made him even more nervous. Andorra was not good at subtle space magic. If she stayed in hell, she would probably
Ignore yourself for the time being and head to Mount Doom instead. If she destroys the casting of the Blade of Doom, Rhodes will completely lose hope of defeating her.
For this reason, Rhodes must get the authority of the Fire Elemental Lord into his hands as soon as possible. Rhodes thought he would not encounter any obstruction near the sacred tree tomb, but the current situation disappointed him. There was no trace left by the hero.
Active in this dense forest is the most powerful fire creature in the world, the Phoenix, known as the Phoenix. It is probably not easy to gain the power of the fire element monarch.
"The dense forest ahead is the territory of Phoenix. Please don't come any closer."
While Rhodes was thinking, an elf flapped its wings and flew in front of Rhodes, asking him.
The elf's body is less than the size of Rhodes' palm. She wears a golden-red slim armor and holds a fire-tempered spear with her tiny arms. Her words are not polite at all. If Rhodes doesn't intend to do as she asked,
If you do, I'm afraid you will be attacked by her immediately.
Looking at the arrogant elf in front of him, Rhodes couldn't help but laugh. As a fragile elf born in the elemental plane, the elf's rank can only hover around the first and second levels. It is said that it is the weakest creature in the entire fire elemental plane.
It's almost the same. I'm afraid that the rank of any elemental creature can far exceed that of an elf. However, an elf like this dares to stand in front of Rhodes and prevent him from going deep into the sacred forest.
"I know." Rhodes replied slowly, "But something that belongs to me was lost in that dense forest, and I have to get it back."
Hearing Rhode's words with such certainty, the elf couldn't help but frown slightly: "But you don't belong here at all. The aura on your body is completely different from the fire elemental plane. It comes from other planes. In this case,
Why did your stuff end up here?"
Seeing the elf thinking seriously about the content of his words, Rhodes couldn't help but shook his head and didn't want to explain anything. He was about to go to the sacred forest to find out, but was stopped by the elf.
"Stop! If you take one step forward, I will use the Phoenix Divine Fire to leave you with an unforgettable memory."
In front of Rhodes, the elf raised the spear tempered by the fire in his hand. The head of the spear erupted with golden-red shining flames.
With the power of vulgarity, as the Phoenix Fire was ignited, the elf's power suddenly increased, becoming a being that even high-level creatures cannot look down upon.
Even Rhodes was attracted by the quenching spear in the elf's hand and couldn't help but said: "Then you might as well give it a try."
"You..." The elf was so angry at Rhode's words that she had kindly reminded him, but she didn't expect that Rhodes didn't take her words to heart at all, just in time for him to understand the power of the elf. He understood that the elves born from the Phoenix Fire were not so easy to mess with.
Brilliant fire burst out from the front of the elf's spear, and the blazing phoenix divine fire spurted out from the tip of the spear, like the breath of an angry dragon, burning the enemy with blazing fire. Under the burning of the pure flame, only what was left would be left. A piece of fly ash.
The Phoenix Divine Fire did not last long. After a brief burst of fire, it disappeared quietly. Even if Rhodes did not listen to the advice, the well-meaning elf could not bear to hurt others. After the Phoenix Divine Fire briefly appeared, it disappeared again. She took the spear back into her body. She did not intend to teach Rhodes an unforgettable lesson as she said. She just wanted to punish him and make him retreat.
The fire light dissipated, and Rhodes' figure was revealed again. What surprised the elf was that Rhodes always looked as normal, with not even a single scorch mark from the flames on his body. He looked like the supreme Phoenix Divine Fire in the eyes of ordinary people, but he could Treat it as if it were nothing.
Although the Phoenix Divine Fire is extremely powerful, it is not enough to bypass Rhodes' immunity to fire and directly cause damage to him. Even the fire elemental monarch who has released all his power cannot even think of using fire damage without the effect of the Destruction Ball. As far as he was concerned, Rhodes had not paid much attention to the mere Phoenix Divine Fire.
"Have you had enough trouble? Then stop blocking the road."
While the elf was dazed, Rhodes curled up his middle finger, then pressed it with his thumb, and then flicked hard towards the elf's palm-sized body. After hearing an ouch, the elf flew backwards to the side and landed somewhere unknown. Among the trees.
Looking at the elf disappearing in front of him, Rhodes shook his head. In his perception, a chaotic fire storm broke out in the center of the sacred forest. Even the nearby firebirds were struck by the sudden burst of flames. The storm attracted attention, and there was no time to pay attention to the situation on his side.
The appearance of the fire storm is probably directly related to the fire element authority that returned here. The crazy fire storm rolled up endless turbulence that tore apart the space. The nearby space became extremely unstable. If space magic is forcibly used, If he did, he would be expelled from the fire elemental plane immediately. Under the interference of space turbulence, Rhodes was unable to use space magic and teleported directly to the fire elemental authority. He could only get there step by step.
Avoiding the firebird that was attracted by the fire storm above his head, Rhodes quickly walked deep into the center of the sacred tree forest. The aura coming from the front was getting stronger and stronger. The dense branches and leaves around the sacred tree could not block the red fire that dimmed the sky. Countless powerful flames seemed to be waiting for Rhodes ahead.
With the help of the shrubs under the sacred tree, Rhodes concealed his figure and moved forward without leaking a breath. Plants growing in the fire elemental plane are so special. Even if sparks fall on the surface of the plants, they do not burn, but Absorb the power in the flames and let yourself grow more lushly.
Arriving at the end of the road, Rhodes slowed down and pushed aside the branches and leaves that blocked his vision. The scene ahead suddenly became clear. In the sky not far away, dozens of flaming bodies were hovering like phantoms.
The noble divine bird is undoubtedly the most holy phoenix among fire creatures.
The phoenixes now seem to have lost their former nobility and ease, and are forming a formation in twos and threes, fighting endlessly for something among them.
Rhodes looked intently and saw that what the phoenixes were fighting for was a ball of golden fire. Even though the fire looked not as big as the elf that Rhodes had just met, anyone who saw that ball of fire would be in awe.
I am convinced in my heart that the fire, which is less than the size of a palm, contains the power to start a prairie fire that can burn all things.
That unique fire was the monarch's authority who had wandered to the fire elemental plane. The secret of all the flames in the world was contained in that small fire. But what Rhodes didn't expect was that the monarch's authority appeared in this world.
