Offering help when nothing is needed, it’s either treachery or theft.
"Hey, you kid."
The anger of the Gray-Black Fire Phoenix flared up again.
What does it an by treachery or theft, isn’t it okay to treat this kid a little better? Of course, this kindness doesn’t co without a price; it needs this Li Family’s eldest son to fend off the potential appearance of Du Chengfeng—so it’s better for this Li Family’s eldest son to be strong, even if it’s just to use his neck to block Du Chengfeng’s big blade, it can buy him enough ti to retreat.
"I told you, we’re both getting what we need."
As the collapsed mountaintop lood closer, the Gray-Black Fire Phoenix chose to be a bit more patient, just one last ti.
"You get what you want, I get what I want... If you need a reason, it’s because when you wield your halberd, you look like a king."
"... ?"
Li Family’s eldest son was slightly stunned.
But the Gray-Black Fire Phoenix said no more.
If it had known this was all a trick, it wouldn’t have wasted so much effort. Young people are so easy to deceive, just say a few nice words, and they think they’re sothing extraordinary—just like now, even without deliberately sensing it, it can detect the unrest and anxiety within the Li Family’s eldest son’s heart.
And so, after settling this temporary host, the Gray-Black Fire Phoenix erged from Li Family’s eldest son’s body. While taking advantage of Du Chengfeng’s absence, it swiftly dove into the pile of rubble and ruins.
Being intangible and formless is its greatest advantage. Only a single consciousness can freely penetrate these tangible objects, be it rubble and vegetation piled high as a mountain, or even thick soil layers, they are like nothing to it.
"If I keep digging down, how deep can I go? Where will I reach?"
At this mont, an inexplicable thought rose in Gray-Black Fire Phoenix’s mind, after all, this was sothing no one had ever done.
But soon, it dismissed this unrealistic thought.
Finding the fortress is urgent; there’s no ti to care about these trivial things.
Identifying the specific location of the fortress within these dense soil layers is not an easy task, especially with the fortress buried who knows how deep, making the search feel like looking for a needle in a haystack—however, it is different, it is the undying Fire Phoenix, a True Immortal on earth, how could such matters be difficult for it?
"Found you."
In just a few monts, the Gray-Black Fire Phoenix locked onto the cavity of the fortress deeply buried underground.
And then, it dove right in.
The internal structure of the fortress felt quite familiar to it, with the architectural style inherited by the descendants of Chu people. Following this familiar feeling, it imdiately found the location of the storeroom.
However, the items within the storeroom had long decayed.
The objects that should have been filled with Evil Qi were now silent, indistinguishable from ordinary items. Just by their rotten and withered appearance, Gray-Black Fire Phoenix felt that even a light touch would turn these items into ashes.
"Why... are they all rotten?"
Gray-Black Fire Phoenix was dumbfounded, it couldn’t believe what it was seeing.
Even these Divine Soldiers and treasures couldn’t withstand the ravages of ti?
"Sothing should be left..."
Thinking this, Gray-Black Fire Phoenix began searching.
And through this search, it really did find the one weapon that seed usable.
"Finally found one."
Gray-Black Fire Phoenix extended a bird’s claw and picked up the Bronze Halberd with the ugly smiling face on the ground.
Although this Yue Saber lacked a handle and didn’t look like a weapon, feeling the vigorous life force emanating from the Bronze Halberd, Gray-Black Fire Phoenix couldn’t help but sigh, this trip wasn’t in vain.
"Finally waited for one."
From the Bronze Halberd erged an illusory arm, which instantly snapped off the bird’s leg hanging on the Yue Saber and fed it into the mouth of the ugly face.
While tearing and chewing, the Bronze Halberd exclaid that waiting was worth it.
"You... how could you!"
Suddenly losing a leg, Gray-Black Fire Phoenix was horrified and quickly retreated.
"I am Immortal! A True Immortal on earth! How can you, how can you..."
"I know you’re an Immortal, but I’m an Immortal too, a Great Immortal, so what’s wrong with this Great Immortal eating you, this small Immortal?"
Saying so, the Bronze Halberd floated in the air and fiercely slashed at Gray-Black Fire Phoenix.
"Young people are really easy to deceive, just throw out a few cultivation thods, and they practice themselves until they’re ripe for the table."
