Chapter 783: The Might of the Phoenix
"Yes. Zhou Wen nodded in agreement, if he couldn't kill this guardian, it wouldn't hurt to let others try.
However, Zhou Wen didn't do it immediately, he always felt that this gourd was a hidden danger next to him.
Now that there is a little bird suppressing it, that gourd doesn't dare to make a mistake, but if it fights with the guardian, it will be troublesome for the gourd to release the Gu worms inside.
"You wait a minute, I'll find a way to pick this gourd first," Zhou Wen said to Li Mobai and them.
Butterfly joked: "You just drip some blood on the cocoon, and the gourd is not in the way, so you don't have to be so troublesome, right?"
Zhou Wen didn't answer her, and continued to study the gourd in front of him.
This gourd is indeed a good thing, even mythical Gu worms can control it, and it can also make them kill each other and evolve by devouring each other.
This is actually very similar to the phone's companion pet synthesis function, but it is a more primitive and rough version, not as modern as the phone's fusion function.
Zhou Wen thought to himself: "If I can get this gourd back, I will come up with some strange synthetic pets in the future, and there will be an explanation." But how do you get this gourd back? Is this thing a dimensional creature? If you cut off the gourd, will it burst its eggs?"
The bird pecked and scratched at the gourd, but the effect was not very good, and even its golden flame did not have a very good effect on the gourd.
Zhou Wen slashed a few swords with the Golden Overlord Sword, although he could cut the gourd apart, but the space inside the gourd seemed to have the characteristics of spatial extension, and the sword rushed into it, gradually disappearing and dispersing, and it was not able to cause much damage, and the gourd was able to recover quickly.
"Since you can't cut the gourd, let's get rid of its roots. Zhou Wen glanced at the root of the gourd vine, intending to start from there.
The golden sword slashed down wildly, and the sword was indestructible, and before the sword could slash at the root of the gourd vine, the gourd slammed and squirted out more than a dozen Gu worms.
One by one, strange-shaped Gu worms rushed out towards Zhou Wen, some were as small as sesame seeds, some were as big as fierce beasts, and their abilities were different.
Everyone was taken aback, they didn't expect that there were so many Gu worms in the gourd, and Gu Shanshui and Li Mobai were already reflexively ready to fight.
A birdsong sounded, the little bird led its neck and chirped, and those Gu worms who originally rushed towards Zhou Wen were suddenly frightened and fell from the air as if they were paralyzed.
Only those few mythical-level Gu worms relied on rushing towards Zhou Wen, but seeing their bodies trembling, they were obviously extremely scared, and it was only because they were controlled by the gourd that they had to rush over.
When the little bird saw that they dared to rush over, they immediately became angry, flapped their wings and jumped up, rushing over to peck and scratch at those Gu insects.
The strength of the little bird is actually not as strong as those mythical Gu worms, but I don't know why, those mythical Gu worms didn't dare to resist, and they were pecked by the little bird with blood, and there was a small mythical Gu worm that was directly swallowed by the little bird.
The little bird was not afraid of Gu worms parasitic in its body at all, and it was majestic for a while, looking like Emperor Lao Tzu was cleaning up a group of eunuchs, and those eunuchs didn't dare to fight back at all.
"No wonder Dugu Worm said that the phoenix is the nemesis of Gu worms, after Gu Shanshui sees the birds, he will also respect them like gods, this phoenix's restraint against Gu worms is too strong. Zhou Wen originally thought that there would be a fierce battle, but now it seems that without him making a move, Xiao Bird can solve all the Gu worms by himself.
Li Mobai looked at the majestic bird, as if he was thoughtful, and it seemed that he had guessed the origin of the bird.
"No wonder Zhou Wen dared to venture to the Southern District, it turned out that he had such a divine object on his body. Li Mobai suddenly realized that it was not he who moved Zhou Wen, but Zhou Wen who had the certainty of saving his life, so he would follow him to the Valley of No Return.
The little bird was very powerful, and after a while, he swallowed all the more than a dozen Gu worms in his stomach, and his body size obviously increased a lot, and his stomach was round.
Zhou Wen suddenly remembered that the antelope had taken the bird to the golden top of Laojun Mountain before, and after coming back, the bird had become a ball as fat as it is now.
At that time, Zhou Wen was still very puzzled, how could the little bird gain so much weight, and now that he thinks about it, it must be that the little bird has gained some benefits at the top of Laojun Mountain.
"No wonder I feel that after that time, the bird seems to have grown a lot, it turns out that it is not because of the long time, but because of the benefits of swallowing. Zhou Wen only now understands why the phoenix gave him the bird in the first place.
This thing has eaten several mythical-level Gu worms, and there are nearly ten epic-level Gu worms, but they are only fattened into balls, and they don't grow up immediately.
If you want to raise it to adulthood, I don't know how many resources it will consume, and it is estimated that the phoenix can't afford to raise so many little phoenixes, so I want to help it choose a good family to eat and live for nothing, but I don't know why, so I chose myself.
Having lost all the Gu worms, the gourd trembled, but after all, it was just a gourd, and it couldn't escape like an animal-like dimensional creature.
Zhou Wen was not polite, he drew his sword and cut it, and after a few swords, he cut off the root of the gourd vine.
As soon as the gourd root was broken, the gourd vine suddenly withered, the blue-gray leaves also shrank and fell, and the color of the gourd gradually became lighter, and the original blue-gray gradually changed to light gray, and finally turned gray-white.
Zhou Wen slashed his sword on the gourd vine that also turned gray-white, and the gourd vine directly turned into fly ash, and only the gourd still maintained its integrity.
Zhou Wen stretched out his hand, sucked the gourd into his hand, pinched it hard, and found that the gourd was still so hard and not powdered like vines and leaves.
Although the gourd is still there, there is no life on it, and Zhou Wen doesn't know if this gourd can still be used, anyway, put it away first.
The bird eats too hard, walks staggeringly, and looks as if it will fall to the ground and roll out at any moment.
"You guys get back away, I'm going to do it. Zhou Wen said to Li Mobai and them.
The strength of the guardians is generally very strong, even if Zhou Wen can kill the guardians inside, there will definitely be a big battle, in order not to affect them, so they let them go farther in advance, so as not to even have time to escape.
"It's just blood, don't bother, right?" Butterfly said.
"Let's go. Li Mobai seemed to see something, and directly ordered Butterfly and the dumb man to follow him and retreat into the distance.
Although Gu Shanshui didn't know why Zhou Wen wanted them to retreat, he still took Gu Lou and Gu He to retreat into the distance.
