Chapter Seventy-Four: The Phoenix (I)
This voice carried an indescribable momentum, and Wang Feng's first reaction after hearing it was Xun's vigilance. [Full text reading]
To be able to be so close to such a distance before Wang Feng appeared, the owner of this voice must be an immortal master. Take a closer look at the left and right, and don't know where the owner of the voice is hiding. Its presence could only be felt by the scorching heat that came through the ice.
As if sensing Wang Feng's vigilance, the voice remembered again, but it softened a lot: "Human, we are still far away. Tell me, what are you doing here?"
Wang Feng once again confirmed that there was no one around, and his heart was half relieved. Hearing the voice say human, Wang Feng concluded that the owner of the voice was not a human, it might be a dragon or something else, and it was even very likely that it was a phoenix that he couldn't find.
After settling down, Wang Feng said loudly: "I came here to look for the phoenix. ”
The owner of the sound seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Human, you are in the wrong place, the phoenix is on the other side of the holy land, in those warm places. ”
Wang Feng vaguely guessed something from the scorching heat he felt, and immediately replied: "What I'm looking for is not those mediocre phoenixes, but a divine beast that dares to challenge fate and tradition, it should inhabit here, I think you can help me find it." ”
Stopped, not knowing what the owner of the voice was doing. After a while, the voice sounded again: "What are you looking for that phoenix?"
"What I want to do, when I see Phoenix, I will naturally talk to it. Wang Feng is not the kind of person who speaks to everyone, so he didn't say what he was going to do.
The owner of the sound was very curious, but asked strangely: "You are looking for the phoenix, but do you know what the consequences will be after seeing the phoenix?"
It was very strange why this voice asked like this, Wang Feng asked rhetorically: "Is there any price or condition to pay for seeing the phoenix?"
"Of course. The owner of the voice replied proudly, "No animal can see a phoenix without paying a price." This is the tradition of the Phoenix clan. You want to see the phoenix, I'm afraid you can't afford it. ”
Wang Feng, who had reached this point, was already determined to see the phoenix, and when he heard the voice say this, he smiled lightly: "No matter what the price, I want to see the phoenix." ”
The voice was silent for a moment, then continued: "I can help you make your wish come true, but you have to pass my test. ”
Wang Feng didn't think about it, and immediately asked, "What test?"
"If you want to see the phoenix, melt the ice under your feet first!" The voice did not drag, and directly said the topic.
This is not a difficult thing for Wang Feng now, if it weren't for the interruption of the voice, Wang Feng estimated that he would have completed this matter by now. Soon, the cold ice under his feet slowly turned into water droplets. Immediately, it froze again.
As if the owner of the voice could see the situation here, as soon as Wang Feng finished it, a voice immediately came: "Can you really do it?" There was some more surprise and surprise in the voice, and then he asked: "Now the fighting spirit of human beings is not so powerful, and I don't feel the magic fluctuations, how did you do it?
Ask two questions in a row. At least Wang Feng could already conclude that what he was attacked by yesterday was indeed an attack by ice magic, not an accidental weather accident. Yesterday, could it have been a day, and Wang Feng only reacted now. The process of practicing made him forget that time had slipped away, and he didn't think that a day had passed unconsciously.
Without answering the voice owner's question, Wang Feng just said lightly: "What other tests?"
The owner of the voice was not angry because Wang Feng did not answer the question, but smiled and said: "Impatient human, well, since you have passed the first test, now go over the mountain in front of you and come to my territory, and I will tell you what kind of test you will accept next." As he spoke, he laughed and slowly faded away. Wang Feng could no longer feel the heat in the ice.
With the whereabouts of the phoenix, or a clue, Wang Feng, who was almost full of merit, naturally didn't bother to return to find out who attacked him. Anyway, as long as you live, those people's goals are not achieved, and they will always appear. The top priority now is to see the phoenix and forge weapons.
Got out of the ice, called for snow, and climbed over the fallen peaks again. While the well-behaved Bai Xue was patrolling the guard, he didn't know where to hunt a small beast, which seemed to be food for Wang Feng. Wang Feng's fiery internal force was stimulated by the cold internal force, and it was even more refined, and the internal force was everywhere, and there was a burst of barbecue aroma.
After eating the first meal of food baked with internal force, Wang Feng and Bai Xue's figures appeared at the foot of the mountain again.
This time there was no walking along the ridge, where the target was too obvious and there was a high probability that it would be attacked again. Along the foot of the mountain, I found a direction, and the internal force of the ice came out, and the whole body seemed to be integrated into the ice and snow of the polar region. With a dip in my hand, I easily ** those stable ice layers, compared to melting with the internal force of fire, I don't know how many times easier.
* This newly learned method did not take much effort to reach the top of the mountain that I had just seen.
However, what made Wang Feng miscalculate was that this was not the highest peak of this mountain, and there was a mountain in front of it that was even higher than the current peak. And it is just in front of Wang Feng, if it is not this mountain, it should not be overcome.
With a wry smile, he continued to climb up with the snow. At the beginning of the snow, he could still keep up with Wang Feng by himself, but when he came to a steep place, he could only let Wang Feng hold it up.
The higher you go, the heavier the snowstorm. Unlike the initial attack, these snowstorms are not as aggressive, but they are an obstacle that is hard to ignore for those who climb up. In particular, the flying snowflakes reflect the light that never fades, which is a great irritation to the eyes.
Wang Feng could only close his eyes and move upwards little by little. Bai Xue seems to have to adapt to these a lot, and whenever Wang Feng is in the wrong direction, Bai Xue will always whine and remind him.
* With snowy eyes, I climbed the second peak with difficulty. Then, Wang Feng smiled bitterly at the abrupt new peak in front of him. It's really a mountain and a mountain high.
Of course, these are difficult for Wang Feng, using both hands and feet, Wang Feng climbed up again.
This time, there were no more peaks at the top of the mountain, and a huge flat land appeared. Turning his head to look in the direction he came, he could only see some faintly. This mountain should be the highest mountain that Wang Feng has climbed, and in the original world, Mount Tai was not half as high as it is now.
Ascend to the heights, look far away, indeed. At the top of the mountain, Wang Feng passed through the flying wind and snow, and there were a few moving black spots in the sky in the distance. Looking at their direction, they should have followed themselves, not too slowly, and now they can only get there.
Estimating their distance and degrees, it will take at least a little more than a day to get to where they are now. Wang Feng ignored them and walked straight to the other side of the mountain, wanting to see what kind of place the mysterious voice had let him go.
As soon as he walked to the side, Wang Feng's mouth was already shocked by the scenery in front of him.
There is also a huge valley over there, and I don't know how many times larger than the ice lake that Wang Feng fell. But that wasn't enough to shock Wang Feng. What really surprised Wang Feng was that in this bitter cold place, there was a huge valley with a scenery no less than the gateway to the Holy Land. Flowers are blooming, green grass is green, and a fresh scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.
It is as if heaven and earth are a huge painting, with a white background, under the never-extinguishing sun, and the middle interior depicts the most vivid picture in the most brilliant colors of the earthly world. Warm, tranquil and homely.
I can't wait to jump straight from the top of the mountain and blend into that huge canvas. Wang Feng has been enjoying his uncomfortable eyes for so many days. I had never felt that there was anything to see about these ordinary landscapes before, but now that I see them here, I can understand the preciousness of the ordinary.
Wang Feng quickly found a way and ran down in the fastest way he could think of. Bai Xue was also very excited, and followed him all the way with a low whine.
Entering the valley, Wang Feng first closed his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the fragrance and simplicity of the flowers and plants coming from his nose. Then look at your surroundings.
There are no roads, but the center of the valley is obviously different from the surroundings, and the target should be there.
Not long after entering, the mysterious voice sounded in Wang Feng's ears again: "Human, you are coming quickly. ”
Voices came from all directions, and no matter how good Wang Feng was, he still couldn't find the source of the sound. True qi comes out in a big way, but I don't feel anything abnormal.
Wang Feng said loudly: "I've arrived here, you should come out!"
The voice from all directions made Wang Feng very uncomfortable: "I can't see you directly, you haven't completed my test for you yet!"
Rushing around, Wang Feng shouted loudly: "What else is the test, come once!"
A fiery red area in the center of the valley suddenly became scorching, like the scene of Hawkins's epiphany, if not more exaggerated than that one. It may have gathered all the fire elementals here, tumbling and burning there with a light visible to the naked eye. A road looms on the ground, a fiery red road.
The voice continued: "Follow this road to the end, and you will be able to see me." If you can't pass, then you're not qualified to see me. You can now think about it and return to where you came from. ”
The large number of fire elemental gatherings and extremely active activities made the white-clothed mage, who was meditating and waiting for his companion, suddenly wake up, looked in the direction of the mountain in horror, and said to himself: "Is there any activity in the phoenix? Or is that kid not dead? Oops, I have to prevent anyone from seeing the phoenix." ”
