The first thousand two hundred and twenty-eight chapters the test of the phoenix
Han Sen smiled slightly and didn't care about this. The Demonic Insect King's barrier was not even afraid of king-level attacks, so why would he care about the tiny magma insects.
"Is the Phoenix on this island?" Ji Qing asked curiously.
Bao'er lay on Han Sen's shoulder, looking curiously at this small island with big eyes.
The island is not very big. At the speed of Han Sen and the others, it would not take much time to walk around the island. However, the plants on the island are very dense, almost like a tropical rain forest, with flowers, plants, insects, and animals flourishing inside.
And standing on the island, you can't feel the high temperature of the magma close at hand, but it feels as warm as early summer, making people want to sleep lazily.
Bai Wei didn't answer and walked straight into the woods. Han Sen and the others originally thought there would be some danger, but they soon discovered that the creatures here were not even alien species. They were all very ordinary creatures and not threatening at all.
In the center of the island, there stands a white stone mountain, only a few hundred meters high. From a distance, it looks like a big white-faced steamed bun.
On the top of the stone mountain, there is a dilapidated tower. It looks like it has been weathered due to too many years, and it is slanted as if it will collapse at any time.
Arriving in front of the stone mountain, Bai Wei took a look at the dilapidated tower on the top of the mountain and shouted loudly: "The White Queen is here to keep an appointment. Is Lord Phoenix here?"
After Bai Wei shouted for the first time, her voice echoed over the island, but there was no response from the tower, so she shouted twice more.
It wasn't until he finished shouting for the third time that he suddenly saw the door of the dilapidated tower on the top of the stone mountain creaking and knocking.
Han Sen, Bao'er and others all stared at the door of the tower with wide eyes. They were also curious about what the deified-level phoenix looked like. The tower was not very big. Since the phoenix lived inside, I'm afraid it would be too big.
It shouldn't be too big either.
Everyone looked at the tower door curiously and heard the patter of footsteps coming from inside. After a while, they saw a figure walking out of the open door of the tower.
"Is she a phoenix?" Han Sen and others stared at the figure who had walked out of the door with wide eyes.
What came out of it was not a bird at all, but an old lady with a stooped back and a cane. Her face was already covered with wrinkles like dead tree bark, and her body was too old and hunched to look like an adult.
Han Sen is about waist height, has a pair of big, round glasses on his nose, and is wearing a red robe. He looks weird.
"Who's making noise down there?" The old lady's eyes didn't seem to be very high. She stood in front of the tower door and glanced down the mountain twice. She seemed to be a little unclear. She pushed up the glasses on her nose again and saw the dim light.
Only then did his eyes focus on Bai Wei and the others.
Bai Wei obviously did not expect that such a person would come out of it, but she was a royal daughter after all. Although she was shocked, she still calmly replied: "I am Bai Wei, the daughter of the White Emperor, and I am attending the appointment as ordered by my father.
Come here, are you Lord Phoenix?"
The old lady pushed up her glasses again, squinted her eyes and looked at Bai Wei a few more times, and then said slowly: "It turns out that I'm from the White Queen. I'm not Lord Phoenix, I'm just an old man who helps clean the tower."
Just a wife."
"Please help me tell Lord Phoenix that the White Queen is here to keep the appointment," Bai Wei continued.
"You came too late, Master Phoenix is already dead." The old lady said slowly.
"Will the phoenix die?" Han Sen and others opened their mouths wide and their eyes almost popped out.
Bai Wei was also in a daze. She had never thought that it would be such a situation. The deity-level Phoenix was already dead. So what was the point of her coming here?
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "However, Master Phoenix has temporarily given instructions before. If the White Queen comes as requested, as long as he can pass the test, he can take away the things he left behind."
Bai Wei's face improved a little, and she quickly asked: "Bai Wei is willing to give it a try, but I don't know what the test is?"
The old lady didn't answer directly. Her dim old eyes looked at Han Sen and the others through glasses as thick as the bottom of a bottle and said, "What's their relationship with you? They don't seem to be from the Huangji clan. If they are irrelevant guys, just kill them."
That is, not just anyone can come to Lord Phoenix’s residence.”
Han Sen and others felt chills in their hearts. The old lady looked like she had half her foot in the coffin, but the moment her eyes glanced over them, Han Sen and others felt chills stand on end.
A very dangerous atmosphere.
Bai Wei glanced at Han Sen, and then answered the old lady: "They are the knights of my Huangji clan, escorting me here."
"That's it." The old lady nodded and didn't say anything more. She walked step by step to the stone steps next to the top of the mountain with a walking stick. The look of her shaky steps made people worried, would she not be able to do anything?
If you are careful, you will fall down from the top of the mountain and die.
Standing at the top of the stone steps, the old lady said as if recalling: "Back then, Master Phoenix fought with your father, the White Emperor, for a thousand days, killing countless stars in the sky. In the end, the outcome was still undecided. We agreed to let them go after a thousand years."
When the descendants are promoted to the rank of Marquis, we will fight again to determine the outcome. Unfortunately, Master Phoenix failed to give birth to a child. Not only was he unable to give birth to an offspring, but he also died in childbirth. The promise of another fight cannot be kept."
When the old lady said this, her face was full of sighs, and then she pointed to the stone steps and said: "But Lord Phoenix set up these stone steps of life and death before he died. If you can walk up from those stone steps, you can finish the walk."
You have won all the stone steps, and you can take away the things that Lord Phoenix and the White Emperor fought for back then. If you can't finish it, just go back."
"Are there any other conditions?" Bai Wei looked at the old lady on the top of the mountain and asked.
"No, no matter what method you use, as long as you can walk through these stone steps to the top of the mountain, even if you climb up, you will win." After the old lady finished speaking, she coughed twice.
"If there are no other conditions, I will start now." Bai Wei said and walked towards the stone steps of Mantou Mountain.
Han Sen and the others looked at the stone steps. The mountain was only a few hundred meters high. The stone steps went straight up from the foot of the mountain to the top. There were only a few thousand steps at most. Han Sen didn't see anything surprising.
I am very curious about what kind of test there is above the steps.
Of course, Han Sen was more interested in what the Phoenix and the White Emperor were fighting for. Unfortunately, he felt that the old lady was extremely dangerous, so it was better not to provoke her. He could only watch Bai Wei accept the test below.
