Hanging Mountain, the ancestral land of the phoenix in the phoenix spirit realm, is also the place where the phoenix clan and the birds under its command live.

After walking out of the bamboo forest, it took about two days, and faintly, I finally saw the shadow of Hanging Mountain from the horizon.

During the period, the road was stable, and the forest quilt was also prosperous, with occasional warblers singing and dancing, but there was some less fairy breath. Not to mention the reckless sense of desolation, the Feng Spirit Realm at this time, the aura is sparse, and it is very inferior to some third-rate sects.

Only the black mountain in the distance seems to be able to see some shadows of the desolation. After another half-day trip, three or five miles away from the Hanging Mountain, I finally got a glimpse of the whole picture of this sacred mountain.

This Hanging Mountain, the whole body is pitch black, the strange rocks are craggy, and it is not covered with a green plant. If you look closely, there seem to be traces of fire.

Before climbing the mountain, the mountain wind from top to bottom hit, as if it still carried the smell of burning embers. Thousands of years have passed, and from this wind, you can still feel the tragic situation at that time.

In order to eliminate the poison of the silence of all souls, thousands of phoenix birds spontaneously burned their bodies and were buried in this sacred mountain. The raging fire endured for a long time, and the blazing flame of Nirvana seems to have continued to this day.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Chu Tian felt grateful and couldn't help but sigh.

Linglong also felt something, and after sighing, he said to Chu Tian: "Let's go up the mountain quickly." ”

Chu Tian nodded, and the two of them walked a few miles together, and finally stepped into the range of Hanging Mountain. He and Linglong chose a flat place and were about to go up, when they had just taken two steps when a stone tablet three feet high suddenly rose from the ground in front of them and stumbled in front of them.

This monument is not the color of the mountain stone, and it is glowing with blue light. What's even more amazing is the appearance of a hundred birds on the stele.

Headed by the five phoenixes, the hundred birds surrendered. The momentum is magnificent, and it is a scene of a hundred birds coming to the court.

When Chu Tianzheng was surprised, the Qingluan on her shoulder spoke, and she said in an incredulous tone: "It's actually a hundred birds and a phoenix!"

After exclaiming, Qingluan continued: "I didn't expect that this Hundred Birds Chaofeng Diagram has not been damaged, it seems that if you want to climb to the top of this mountain, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort." ”

"What does this mean, could it be that this stone tablet is not to be said?" Chu Tian's heart fluctuated, and he couldn't help frowning.

On the way, Linglong told Qingluan about Chutian's situation. What men are anxious about, Qingluan knows it.

Seeing Chu Tian's face change slightly, Qingluan explained: "Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of people from foreign races who have come to the Phoenix Spirit Realm to seek the Tao. Although our people are good, the foundation of their existence cannot be easily given to outsiders. Say so, but you can't turn the other party away. Therefore, there is the test of a hundred birds and a phoenix. ”

"So that's the case..."Chu Tian deeply understood the Phoenix Clan's decision. But at this moment, there is a tendency to burn his eyebrows, and a word of understanding is not enough to soothe his state of mind.

After a pause, Chu Tian thought of the key point, and he asked Qingluan: "Since it is a test set by the Phoenix Clan, it must be extraordinary when you think about it. How many have passed since ancient times?"

Hearing Chu Tian's inquiry, Qingluan was silent.

Seeing this, Chu Tian also guessed a few points. He stretched out his hands and put them in front of Qingluan and said, "Is there this number?"

Qingluan shook his head and said, "There are only three people who have been recognized by the Hundred Bird Heroic Spirits. ”

"Three..."

Chu Tian just muttered to himself, and then fell into a wry smile.

In ancient times, there was no shortage of amazing talents, and it can be said that it was an era of pride. As strong as them, only three people have passed the test of the Hundred Birds and the Phoenix.

In Chu Tian's opinion, even if it exceeded the number of ten fingers, it was inevitably a little too little.

Even if he didn't look at Chu Tian's reaction, Qingluan could understand the psychology of men. She interrupted the man's thoughts, and said with encouragement: "Brother Chutian doesn't need to be too pessimistic, what this Hundred Birds Chaofeng Diagram tests is not the strength of one person. Our people are kind by nature, they don't like to fight, and they don't want the outside world to make waves. Therefore, they will not allow the blood and determination of the gods in the clan to flow into the hands of treacherous people. ”

"Anyone who passes the test has a pure heart. Among these three people, there is even an ordinary mortal spirit. After Brother Chutian learned my identity, he didn't show a trace of greed. Therefore, Qing'er believes that although there are tribulations, her brother will definitely pass the test smoothly. ”

An Examination of the Mind......

Listening to Qingluan's explanation again, Chu Tian's tense heart gradually relaxed.

At this time, Linglong suddenly interjected: "Do you really think that the test of the Phoenix clan will be so easy? The so-called sacred heart, avoid killing and hatred, abstain from greed and sex, and be humble and have a common heart. I don't know what it is. But with your lustful nature, you must have fallen into it as soon as you entered. ”

Greedy for money and lustful?

After listening to Linglong's evaluation, Chu Tian's whole person was not good.

Although he loves money, he also takes it in a proper way, but when he should be generous, he has never been stingy; as for lust? At most, it is to follow the principles of heaven and interpret the way of a gentleman with his heart.

Of course, it can't be compared with the clear and immaculate heart of a child, and knowing that this is a reminder from Linglong, he asked, "Is there a better way for that sister?"

Linglong shook her head and just said, "I know I can't stop you, but I'm just kind to remind you." I'm afraid that you will get lost in it and lose yourself. After all, someone has a lesson from the past. ”

Linglong pointed to the corner of her lips again, as if hinting at something.

Chu Tian didn't know Linglong's true meaning, but at this moment, apart from laughing awkwardly, he couldn't justify anything.

Seeing that Chutian had made a decision, Qingluan echoed again: "What Sister Linglong said does have some truth. Although it is a test of the mind, it also needs to be supported by firm willpower. Especially what my brother has to face is the heroic spirits of our clan for generations, and if you are not careful, you will be taken advantage of by them and find an opportunity. ”

After all, it was a test set by the Divine Bird Phoenix Clan, how could Chu Tian dare to despise it. But if you hear too many such words, you will wear down your mind.

Chu Tian smiled: "Don't scare me two of you. Since this is the only way to embark on the Mourning Mountain, I will not retreat. If there are no more precautions, let's go. ”

"We?" Linglong smiled when she heard this, she patted Chu Tian on the shoulder and said, "I won't suffer that sin with you, you should go alone." ”

"Sister isn't going?" Chu Tian was slightly stunned, and then asked, "If you don't pass this test, how will your sister climb to the top of the mountain." At that time, even if there is a way out, if the portal is on the top of the mountain, what if it is good?"

"Hmm... You have a point. Linglong nodded in agreement, but then asked Xiang Qingluan: "Qing'er has chosen me as the master, and I can be regarded as half of the Phoenix Clan." Qing'er, do you have a way to let me go up?"

"Sister Linglong thinks of mourning the top of the mountain, which is naturally unimpeded. With that, Qingluan flew away from Chu Tian's shoulder and fell into Linglong's palm.

"Is this all right?"

Seeing Linglong teasing Qingluan in his palm, no matter how good Chu Tian's mood was, he was a little jealous at the moment.

But jealousy could not change the current situation, and with a silent sigh, he turned and walked towards the stone tablet.

Chu Tian was about to step into it, when he suddenly thought of something, he turned his head and said, "Since my sister can go up to the top of the mountain, just go up directly to find out the situation, why do I need to go to this formation to try again?"

"As you said, what if the exit of the secret realm is at the top of the Mourning Mountain? Throwing a roll of his eyes at the man, Linglong pushed Chu Tian and said, "Go in, you." ”

This is not a gentle push, Linglong even used palm power, Chu Tian seemed to have something to say, but was sucked into it by the vortex of the evolution of the Hundred Birds towards the Phoenix Diagram.

When Chu Tian's figure disappeared, Qingluan was puzzled: "Sister Linglong, why did you spread the word to me, you had to trick Brother Chu Tian into it." It's only a few hours to go up the mountain, so wouldn't it be nice for me to explore the way first?"

Linglong was silent for a long time, and then said quietly: "Your brother, the main purpose of stepping into this secret place with me this time is to improve your strength. But now, it was also because of an accident that he accidentally improved a small realm. In this way, even if he found a way out, he still faced a difficult situation. In this way, it is better to take this opportunity to give it a go. ”

"As you said earlier, once you pass the test of those ancient heroes, you will be rewarded with divine blood and even divine decision. If you can awaken the phoenix bloodline in Chu Tian's body, it will be worth the trip. Chores like finding a way out are left to us. After all, it was I who brought him in, and I was obligated to take him out within the stipulated period. ”

Hearing what Linglong said, Qingluan was full of emotion, and she urged: "Sister Linglong, you are so good to your brother, do you like him?"

"Uh..."

Suddenly hearing Qingluan's straightforward words, Linglong was stunned.

If it is said that there is no good feeling, Linglong himself does not believe it. Otherwise, he will not subtly change his name and be sad for the man's "departure".

What's more, he will also make some intimate moves towards Chu Tian. Judging from all kinds of performances, she was indeed attracted to this man.

But is there really a future between her and Chutian? Linglong is not a prophet, she can't see clearly, and she can't assert it.

It was also in this no-man's land that Linglong dared to show some emotions a little, and if she was outside, she would definitely not do those crazy things.

Thinking of the responsibility on her shoulders, Linglong subconsciously shook her head, and after coming back to her senses, she nodded Qingluan's little head and said, "Wherever I treat him, I have said it, this is just a responsibility." If Qing'er likes that big wood, why don't you wait for you to transform and tell him?"

"yes, yes, that's what I mean. In the future, I will have to trouble Sister Linglong to cultivate hard, and when my sister steps into the Holy Realm, I will confess to Brother Chutian. ”

Qingluan's voice was cheerful, and he responded like this.

Linglong was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she said helplessly: "Okay, good... In order for Qing'er to be able to make her wish come true, I also fought for this life. ”

Qingluan rubbed Linglong's side face as if intimately, but Linglong was speechless except for a wry smile, but she didn't feel the slightest sense of relief.

After a period of frolic, under the guidance of Qingluan, Linglong climbed to the top of Hanging Mountain.

As everyone knows, when Chu Tian and Linglong were going their own way in the Feng Spirit Realm, outside the Prince of Chudu's mansion, an uninvited guest came.
