"They speculated that the man might not have been able to resist the temptation of those top-notch rare items growing inside the forbidden volcano, and took the risk to go deep and pick them.
As a result, we caught up with the volcanic magma explosion and missed the best opportunity to evacuate.”
Yin Muqing pursed her lips tightly, her expression full of complexity.
Even though Ling Yu repeatedly emphasized the authenticity and accuracy of the news, she still couldn't completely believe that the man with three heads and six arms, who was as powerful as a demon, died so easily, in a volcanic eruption.
"It is normal for people to suffer casualties when exploring secret realms. Hidden Star's character usually does not match his strength and is relatively fragile and unstable.
Similar things have never happened before.”
Ling Yu sighed softly and said regretfully: "It's a pity. If this person had not died and participated in this operation, our Xia Kingdom would be more certain of winning the Phoenix Egg.
The Far Star Federation has completely lost their dignity, and they still want to use the Ice God.
Although this idea has been blocked by the federation, it is said that applications are being made repeatedly, and there are even plans to unilaterally tear up the agreement regardless of it.”
Yin Muqing said nothing and looked around with complicated eyes.
The current location where she and Ling Yu were located was somewhere on the edge of the deep fog zone. Ten kilometers ahead, there was a raging sea of fire that was gradually spreading.
Within the sea of fire, dark red magma flows freely. Looking down from a high place, it is as if the secret realm of Ember Mountain is slowly peeling off its green fur, revealing the red and black flesh underneath.
Perhaps, this is the original appearance of Ember Mountain.
Yin Muqing had such an idea in her mind.
At the edge of the forest where the flames spread, a large number of Phoenix blood descendants stood.
These long-haired, red-skinned natives with unusual appearances were kneeling on the ground.
Led by people who were similar to elders in the tribe, they kowtowed in the direction of the flames and murmured something in their mouths.
The flames and lava passed over them, burning their flesh, but they did not choose to dodge. There was no sign of pain on their faces, but a look of enjoyment.
The posture is extremely pious, as if this is some kind of supreme honor for them.
There are several action teams like Yin Muqing and others in this area, but no one pays attention to these Phoenix natives.
Everyone was waiting quietly, paying attention to the messages and instructions conveyed on the communicator.
This is a joint deployment of the "Hunting Legend" operation. If the third hunting plan goes well enough, the suspected phoenix creature carrying the phoenix egg will most likely pass by this location.
And what they have to do is to try their best to stop the phoenix egg when it arrives. Even if they cannot stop it, they must drive it to the predetermined direction and form a siege.
It's like a pocket, and these people are part of it.
After waiting for a while, the magma and flames were almost at the feet of Yin Muqing and others.
At this moment, Ling Yu suddenly said in a hurried tone: "Here we come, get ready!"
Yin Muqing looked solemn and quickly pulled out the alloy sword from her waist.
Not long after, she felt an extremely rich legendary aura and dozens of powerful energy fluctuations rising in front of her, and she rushed towards this direction quickly.
"唳——"
The melodious chirping of Qingyue birds came from afar, and a huge orange-red bird with an extremely gorgeous and elegant figure appeared in Yin Muqing's field of vision.
The big bird held a snow-white giant egg in its arms, and there were more than a dozen figures following closely behind it.
"Do it!"
Ling Yu gave a low shout, and Yin Muqing didn't have time to think, so she directly slashed the big orange bird from a distance with her backhand.
"boom--"
Dozens of attacks instantly erupted in this area, all with the same goal.
It was also when they took action collectively that the Phoenix blood descendants below who were kneeling at the edge of the lava flames suddenly shouted loudly.
Each one of them looked excited, shouting and launching an attack on Yin Muqing and others, showing a fierce attitude that they were not afraid of death and would defend to the death.
"Shua——"
Ling Yu casually slashed downwards with his sword, directly cutting several Phoenix blood descendant natives who rushed close into two pieces.
Seeing the dark figure emerge from the ashes of his corpse, Ling Yu frowned and coldly snorted: "If I had known better, I should have cleared the place directly."
Of course, it seems pointless to discuss this at this time.
Fortunately, although the sudden rise of those phoenix blood descendants was surprising, their strength was generally low, and they were completely incompetent in front of the members of the exploration team who were qualified to participate in the hunt, and they only caused a slight commotion.
The offensive to contain the crowd was effective, and the big orange bird holding the phoenix egg was blocked.
Ling Yu and several outstanding men rushed forward, and after several rounds of attacks, the gorgeous orange bird exploded with a "boom"!
In the golden-red light rain that spread all over the sky, an orange shadow emerged.
The coo-coo bird with the crown on its head grabbed a phoenix egg that was estimated to be dozens of times larger than itself. It flapped its wings very quickly and turned into a stream of white light, trying to rush out of the encirclement.
"Stop it!"
Seeing that the suspected phoenix creature that had been chased and intercepted several times finally showed its true form at this moment, everyone participating in the hunt was in high spirits.
Yin Muqing also took action.
She had an impression of this bird. It was this cuckoo bird that had a phoenix feather in its beak and made a lot of people, including her, spin around.
then
Yin Muqing couldn't help but think of the demon sword named Lu Yuan. It was because of this mysterious cuckoo bird in front of her that everyone saw his true strength.
With one enemy against many, he defeated the fierce saber Matisse, armed with life and death, and rose to fame, like a comet rising rapidly in a secret realm.
I didn’t expect how long it had just passed, and things had changed and people had changed.
Yin Muqing sighed softly in her heart. She didn't know why she had so many emotions and sighs in her heart.
A dozen figures who were chasing the phoenix egg also arrived quickly, and the Cuckoo bird, which was clutching the phoenix egg, fell into a circle of people.
However, the origin of this palm-sized bird is unknown. It is extremely fast. Dozens of the weakest and third-level experts surrounded it, but no one could even touch its body.
All attacks were avoided by it.
Seeing that their encirclement was about to be penetrated by the cuckoo bird, at this moment.
"Boom——"
A thunderous sound broke through the air suddenly.
Then the second and third courses
Yin Muqing raised her eyes and saw dozens of figures coming from all directions.
The aura emanating from each figure is as powerful as a dragon, soaring straight into the sky.
Among them, there were no less than seven or eight Guangqiong-level mechas, and almost all of the rest were well-known and powerful men that Yin Muqing was familiar with.
Yang Nan, whom Ling Yu mentioned before, was among them.
As dozens of powerful men from all forces entered the scene, the originally loose encirclement instantly became as solid as an iron barrel.
"Zizi——"
As soon as the five Sky-class mechas of the Far Star Federation entered the scene, they immediately fired a large number of deep yellow beams.
These light beams intertwined with each other and instantly formed a dark yellow super force field, which directly enveloped the Cuckoo bird holding the Phoenix egg.
The Cuckoo bird in the force field was affected, and its originally flexible body suddenly became much sluggish.
At this time, more than a dozen supernovas and transformation powerhouses headed by Oresha took action at the same time, and the terrifying energy offensive quickly covered the Cuckoo Bird like a big net.
Yin Muqing saw the coo-coo bird flying left and hitting again, continuously coo-cooing in a hurry, but she couldn't find the breakthrough it wanted.
When the intensive offensive came down, the Cuckoo bird barely dodged twice, and finally had no choice but to hit an energy beam.
It exploded on the spot with a "bang" and exploded into a small cloud of blood.
When Yin Muqing saw a few broken orange feathers floating in front of her eyes, she felt a little uncomfortable for no reason, and her mood became even lower.
She silently put away the alloy sword in her hand, and for a moment she lost all desire to take action.
Once the cuckoo died, all that was left was the lonely white giant egg.
The eyes of everyone in the field suddenly became intense.
Phoenix eggs!
The legendary phoenix egg!
It is very possible to hatch a real phoenix, the name of immortality, and the secret of eternal life.
Thoughts passed through everyone's minds one by one, and the atmosphere became more subtle.
But at this moment, in full view of everyone, the phoenix egg without any support suddenly started to move on its own.
And it is extremely fast, even faster than the previous Cuckoo bird.
In just an instant, he directly penetrated the super force field released by the five Sky-level mechas, and rushed out of the encirclement with a "swish".
Then
He flew straight towards Yin Muqing, who was at the outermost edge of the encirclement, and jumped into her arms.
"Well"
This series of changes happened so fast that no one in the room could react.
Including Yin Muqing.
Yin Muqing, who was holding a giant egg that was almost half the size of her body, stood there blankly, completely stunned by this unexpected change.
until
Ling Yu's loud shout woke her up from her daze.
"Go quickly!!"
Yin Muqing woke up from a dream. The moment her mind returned, she saw at least twenty attacks flying straight towards her.
Each attack was enough to kill her, who was only at the third level of strength, more than ten times.
Without any time to think, Yin Muqing exploded with all her strength in an instant, found a random direction and dashed out.
"Boom!"
A huge explosion sounded behind her, and the aftermath of the terrifying energy caused pain all over her back, as if even the suit on her body was torn to pieces.
"snort!"
Yin Muqing heard someone snorting, then the roar of the mecha's super engine and the violent collision.
The mental power conveyed to her what was happening behind her.
She saw that all the forces belonging to the Yellow Bear of the Xia Kingdom were rising. Yang Nan, Ling Yu, and two Cangqiong-class mechas belonging to the Xia Kingdom were frantically blocking other forces who were trying to kill and intercept her.
.
But the strength of the coalition forces headed by the Far Star Federation is simply too strong.
There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and Xia Guo's defense line was torn apart in almost a few breaths.
Yin Muqing saw Oresha, who was wearing Cangqiong armor, with two golden steel wings spread out behind his back, and his eyes were cold and murderous, chasing her quickly with several Cangqiong-class mechas.
In just a blink of an eye, the distance between them was shortened.
Yin Muqing's heart was beating wildly, and she was enveloped in deep panic, confusion, and the shadow of death.
She had absolutely no idea what to do.
She didn't even know why the phoenix egg suddenly jumped into her arms.
She wanted to throw the phoenix egg away, but found that the phoenix egg in her arms suddenly exerted a huge suction force, and her whole body was firmly attached to it.
Then
"boom!"
The huge phoenix egg led Yin Muqing around a corner and "ran like crazy" towards the depths of the secret realm!
"Ouch-ouch——"
Yin Muqing was completely carried away by the egg, her head was buzzing and a mess.
She heard the unexplained shouts of the Phoenix blood descendants coming from below her, and then each of the Phoenix blood descendants rushed into the sky, bravely blocking the pursuers behind her without fear of death.
