The little beast that was the first to rush to the top of the stone steps and fell to the ground suddenly rolled up and stood up. Although it was old, it was still very strong, and in two or three times it ran to the old lady's feet and stood there.
The transparent flames on the stone steps were burning, but no temperature could be felt at all. The transparent flames rose up and condensed into the air.
Han Sen, Bai Wei and the little beast all had transparent flames drawn out of their bodies, and also condensed into the air.
As the transparent flames were peeled off, the bodies of the three of them gradually recovered, gradually returning from their aging state to their original appearance.
All the transparent flames condensed into a transparent flame bird in the air. The bird looked like a phoenix. It looked up to the sky and let out a scream. Then it nodded slightly to Han Sen, flapped its wings and rushed towards the Mantou Mountain. In the blink of an eye, it rushed in
He disappeared among the rocks.
"Young man, you win." The old lady looked at Han Sen seriously and said, "I'm just curious, how can you be sure that you won't die?"
Han Sen pointed to the little beast at the old lady's feet and said: "You didn't allow Bai Wei to leave the path of life and death, but you didn't stop us from catching the little beast for testing. This means that the test results shouldn't be a bad thing for you. Maybe there are
Some effects. Also, its acting skills are a bit too exaggerated. I just chased it away, and it ran up the mountain as fast as it could without looking back. This is too abnormal, so I guess this little beast
You basically raised them in captivity."
"Based on these, you dare to come up?" The old lady looked at Han Sen with a strange expression.
Although these judgments are not wrong, it is a matter of life and death. This is just a judgment. Even if there is half a doubt, few people dare to come forward.
Han Sen shook his head: "Those judgments are not important. What is important is that I can see that it is not dead. Although it does a very good job and has special skills to restrain its vitality, it cannot be hidden from my eyes."
Bai Wei, who had returned to her girlish state, also walked up and looked thoughtfully at the little beast at the old lady's feet.
"I see, it's unnecessary for me." The old lady stretched out her hand slightly, and the little beast automatically jumped into her arms. After petting the little beast twice, the old lady continued: "Now that you have passed by,
The path of life and death has been recognized by the will left by Lord Phoenix. Even if you win this bet, you can take your things away."
The old lady said this, but her feet did not move. She just looked at them with a smile.
"Where is the thing?" Bai Wei asked with a frown.
The old lady smiled and said: "The thing is right in front of you, haven't you been looking at it for a long time?"
"This stone mountain?" Bai Wei was startled for a moment, then immediately reacted and said looking at the stone mountain at her feet.
The old lady nodded and said: "This mountain is called Death Mountain. It is a deified treasure naturally bred by the universe. When Lord Phoenix and Lord Bai Huang discovered Death Mountain at the same time, they agreed to decide who owns Death Mountain based on victory or defeat. Unfortunately, in the end
But they couldn't tell the winner, so they could only leave the Death Mountain where they are for the time being, and let Lord Phoenix take care of it. However, Lord Phoenix is dead and buried in the Death Mountain. This mountain is no longer useful to other creatures, presumably.
Mr. Bai Huang also knows about this, so he didn’t come here in person, but just asked you to come for the appointment.”
"If that's the case, why does my father still want me to come here?" Bai Wei asked in confusion.
The old lady said calmly: "Although Master Phoenix died early and had to occupy Death Mountain, naturally he will not occupy this place in vain. He still left something for you. As for whether you can take it away, it depends on you.
On your own."
As she spoke, the old lady pointed her cane at the tower behind her, and a ball of flame flew out from the cane and landed on the tower, immediately igniting the tower. In the blink of an eye, the tower was devoured by raging fire.
In just a moment, the tower was burned to ashes by the flames and scattered in all directions. Only one thing remained where the tower originally stood.
When Han Sen and the others looked at the thing, they all felt a little strange. The thing turned out to be something woven from withered grass. It looked like a bird's nest.
The appearance is definitely not exquisite, it can even be said to be a bit rough, but it is a bit big, with a diameter of more than three meters, so several people can sleep in it without any problem.
"Is this what Lord Phoenix left behind?" Han Sen asked curiously.
The old lady looked at the bird's nest and said with blurry eyes: "Don't underestimate it. This is the birthplace of the Phoenix. Those withered grasses are also extraordinary things. They are called longevity grasses. If you can take them away, you will be able to live forever."
Naturally you will understand its benefits."
Bai Wei didn't say anything more. She walked to the bird's nest and stretched out her hand to pick it up. However, the bird's nest looked like it was woven with withered grass, but it seemed to have the weight of a mountain. Bai Wei continued for several times.
Every time I tried hard, the bird's nest didn't move at all, and not even a withered blade of grass could be torn off.
The old lady said with a smile: "Master Phoenix was born in it and has lived in it for countless billions of years. The power of immortality has already permeated the entire Phoenix's Nest. No ordinary deified weapon can compare with it. I think
It’s not that easy to take it away.”
Bai Wei frowned slightly, the golden divine light on her body shone brightly, and a light and shadow appeared on her body, causing her aura to rise sharply, which was many times stronger than her usual.
Han Sen was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Bai Wei to have such a skill.
But even with such a powerful burst of power, Bai Wei still couldn't shake the Phoenix's Nest at all, no matter how hard she tried, it was useless.
The weapon of deification was not something that a mere marquis could forcibly take as his own. It was obviously impossible for Bai Wei to take it away by force.
"One thing for another, Master Phoenix left the most precious thing for you, but you can't take it away, so don't blame others." The old lady said with a smile.
Bai Wei frowned and said nothing, staring at the Phoenix's Nest and thinking, but she didn't see how to take away the Phoenix's Nest.
Han Sen looked at the old lady and asked: "Is it true that only creatures that have gone through the path of life and death and are recognized by the will of the Phoenix can take away the Phoenix's Nest?"
When Bai Wei heard this, she also looked at the old lady. The old lady's expression changed slightly. They already knew the answer without her needing to answer.
Han Sen walked to the Phoenix's Nest and reached out to grab the edge of the bird's nest. As soon as his palm touched the bird's nest, he saw that the bird's nest flew up automatically, shrank quickly and became smaller. In just the blink of an eye, it turned into a
A palm-sized bird's nest landed on Han Sen's palm.
"As expected." Han Sen casually handed the bird's nest to Bai Wei.
Bai Wei stretched out her hand to grab the bird's nest, but as soon as Han Sen's hand loosened, the bird's nest suddenly fell like a heavy boulder. Bai Wei's strength was unable to stop its fall, and she was forced to bend down.
The bird's nest fell to the ground, and Bai Wei couldn't pick it up no matter how hard she tried.
