Chapter 539 Phoenix Bird

Chapter 539 Phoenix Bird
"It's broken! It's broken!"

The mountain giant seemed stumped by Lin Jue's words.

When it stood up and looked around, it saw the mess it had made and suddenly felt panic-stricken, heartbroken and uncomfortable.

"Yaohua...Yaohua..."

As it was muttering to itself, rocks from Yuanqiu Fairyland gathered and repaired its right foot.

The mountain giant slowly got up again.

"It's all Yaohua's fault..."

The mountain giant muttered to himself, ignoring the Taoist on his forehead. He turned his head and stared at the six-tailed white fox fighting with several feathered serpents in the distant sky.

"Fuyao, be careful!"

Lin Jue shouted and pointed his hand downwards.

Flowers bloom in an instant!

With his current level of Taoism and magical powers, and his current attainments in this magic, although he cannot reach the level of the ancient emperors who could make half the mountains and rivers bloom with a single thought, he can still make countless flowers bloom on a mountain if he stretches out his hand and points, not pursuing strength but width.

"Zizi..."

Two golden lights shot out from the eyes of the mountain god, illuminating a bright golden path in the forest at night, and countless birds and beasts looked up in panic.

Upon seeing this, the fox immediately turned into a breeze and disappeared.

At the same time, the spring breeze blew across Yuanqiu Fairyland. This mountain giant, which was transformed from a high mountain and was originally covered with grass and trees, now bloomed with various flowers.

Some are bright red, some are tender pink, some are pure white like snow, and some are light purple like smoke and clouds. This ferocious and violent rock giant has thus become colorful and charming.

But this is not easy for the rock giant.

The moment the flower bloomed, it restrained both earthly things and things that gathered spiritual energy and magic power. If it were not actually the incarnation of the Yuanqiu fairyland and had the spiritual energy of the entire fairyland as support, it would have been on the verge of breaking.

"what!!"

With a cry of pain, the golden light also changed direction, and passed across the sky along with its cry of pain.

"laugh!"

In the distance, the sacred Qingtong tree, which was taller than the mountain, slowly fell down.

On the waist of the tree, a slanted fracture was emitting flames.

"Your Excellency is too irrational."

Lin Jue said this, and stretched out his hand.

A mass of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, which was extremely vast, with lightning surging and crackling inside.

Lin Jue naturally did not use thunder to attack the mountain. Instead, he glanced at his junior sister who was fighting with the giant snake below, his senior brother who was constantly stopping rare birds and beasts, and the feathered serpents that were chasing the fox.

"Rumble..."

Thunder continued to fall, hitting the Quetzalcoatl.

However, at this moment, there was another voice between heaven and earth:
"Your Excellency is indeed too irrational."

This is a gentle male voice, coming from afar.

Lin Jue looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a huge golden-red divine bird spreading its wings and flying into the sky in the direction where the Qingtong sacred tree had collapsed.

The divine bird was enormous, with feathers of classical red and pure gold that seemed to glow. It was extremely beautiful and noble. It hardly needed to flap its wings. With just a flick of its wings, it naturally soared into the sky from the distant mountains and forests, and half of the night sky and the mountains and forests seemed to be illuminated.

The loud cry of a phoenix shakes people's hearts and minds.

Lin Jue who was standing on the forehead of the stone giant, the little junior sister in the distant mountains and forests, the eldest senior brother who had reached the top of another mountain, the fox who had just poked its head out from the ground, and the sparrow who was chasing the human-faced crow, all turned their heads involuntarily and stared at the divine bird in a daze.

At this moment, it seems to be the most beautiful thing in the world.

Only the thunderclouds in the sky continued to drop lightning, illuminating the mountains, forests, land, and the astonished faces.

"Golden Phoenix... follow me to fight Yao Hua..."

"You are confused. This is not Empress Yaohua. She is just the descendant of Empress Yaohua."

The golden-red phoenix looked very much like the embroidery on the phoenix robe of an empress of a certain dynasty. It landed on a mountain behind the mountain giant, as if it was standing on a small stone, with several long tail feathers hanging behind it, almost dragging from the top of the mountain to the ground, covering the mountain with a cloak.

"It's not Yaohua..."

"Even if it's Empress Yaohua, so what?" Jin Feng said in a gentle voice, "Empress Yaohua has already been defeated, and Tianweng did not pursue her relentlessly and kill her. The outcome between the two sides has already been decided. Moreover, Emperor Ming has already resigned and retired. Even if he were here, I'm afraid he would not attack Empress Yaohua again, not to mention that the other party is just a junior."

"Yaohua returns... and will definitely fight with the gods... and will definitely fight with Jiutian... Tianweng resigns... and now Tianweng should fight Yaohua again..."

The mountain god's voice still sounded like a landslide.

"That's also the decision that Tian Weng should make. Empress Yao Hua is not someone you can fight." Jin Feng said, "And this is not Empress Yao Hua. If it was Empress Yao Hua, you would have been annihilated several times."

"You are the Phoenix...you stand with the Nine-Tailed Fox...not with the Nine Heavenly Gods...if you don't fight...I will fight..."

"This isn't Empress Yaohua."

"Yao Hua dares to come here..."

"Your brain was damaged by Empress Yaohua. I won't say any more to you."

The divine bird simply turned its head and looked at the people here, then spread its wings and flew over the head of the huge mountain giant. It stretched out its wings and covered the giant's eyes. The golden-red light emitted from its body reflected on the huge mountain giant covered with grass and flowers, giving it a magical color.

The mountain giant could no longer be seen, so he could only pace around aimlessly on the spot, trying to reach out and touch the divine bird above his head, but he had no fingers and his arms were too thick, so he could not reach his head and was very clumsy.

"Stop making a fuss! You'll disturb the celestial being's rest!"

After hearing this, the mountain giant calmed down a little.

"what……"

A crow with a human face flew by under the bright moon, its nose and face bruised and swollen, being chased and pecked by a sparrow. It cried out in a sobbing voice as it flew:
"I didn't steal the fruit! I didn't steal the fruit!"

The Phoenix bird remained above the giant's head and asked the group, "Why are you here?"

"Thank you for helping me out." Lin Jue bowed, "I came to you to ask for a few phoenix feathers."

"Sui Su Su Su..."

Without seeing any movement from the golden phoenix, a few of the tiniest feathers flew up from its body, streaking across the night sky with golden-red rays of light, shooting towards Lin Jue. Lin Jue pointed his sword and stretched out his hand in front of him.

Several feathers stopped immediately.

When he stretched out his hand, the feather appeared in front of him.

The phoenix feathers were palm-sized, mainly red with golden patterns, like auspicious clouds. They looked almost the same as the phoenix feathers that Lady Yaohua had given her in the mother-of-pearl box.

"You'd better leave quickly, otherwise if the mountain god continues to act foolishly, he will disturb Tianweng's lunch break."

As Jin Feng spoke, a golden light flashed in her eyes.

A big cave appeared behind me. Outside the cave was also a forest under the moonlight, but it was not as strange as the big mountain forest in front of me. There were villages and bamboo rafts hidden in the middle.

"You dare to let Yaohua go..."

The mountain giant started to make a fuss again. He paced on the spot, making noises like an earthquake. He kept reaching out his hands, trying to grab the divine bird above his head. His eyes even shone with golden light, hitting the wings of the divine bird so hard that they became transparent.

"Thank you, senior!"

Lin Jue bowed to it respectfully.

There is a feeling in my heart——

This golden phoenix also knew Empress Yaohua. The phoenix feather that Empress Yaohua gave to herself came from it.

The more I think about it, the more likely it seems.

Empress Yaohua was once the Great Saint of the demon clan, equivalent to the emperor of the demon clan. It was normal for the great demon dragons and phoenixes in the world to know her.

"Thank you, senior!"

"Thank you, Senior Jin Feng!"

The two of them followed suit and even the fox Caili followed suit.

Then the three of them did not dare to delay. One turned into a breeze, one turned into a crow, and one flew directly into the air, all flying towards the big hole in front.

However, at this moment, there was sudden silence behind him.

The mountain giant was completely motionless.

The rare animals and birds in the forests, as well as the sounds of wind and fire, all became silent.

The sudden silence made Lin Jue feel something was wrong. He turned his head and saw a hint of panic in the eyes of the divine bird.

"Tianweng is awake!"

The divine bird spoke calmly, but stared at them, urging them to leave quickly with its eyes.

Almost at the same time, a voice came from between heaven and earth:
"Why the noise?"

The voice was old and weak, but kind and friendly.

Lin Jue didn't think much of it at first, and even wanted to see what the celestial bird looked like, but the divine bird's previous behavior and current gaze made him clearly feel that -

The divine bird has been helping them;
You can't stay here at this time.

"Come on!"

Lin Jue raised the dark cloud under his feet and accelerated suddenly.

The eldest senior brother who had turned into a crow beside him also turned his head to look, flying leisurely. The younger junior sister who had turned into a breeze also showed up, wanting to see what was happening behind her. But after hearing Lin Jue's words and seeing his surprise, they made a decision in a very short time and also accelerated their flight forward.

In an instant, thunderclouds gathered beneath them.

"boom!"

The thundercloud was looming, dragging a long tail, and seemed to carry a little lightning, which immediately carried them out of the big hole.

The thunderclouds suddenly stopped!

The eldest brother and the younger sister both turned back into human form. The three of them stood in the clouds, and the clear night wind blew directly in their faces.

The night at this time was still the same night, the moon was still bright, illuminating the village under the distant mountain. However, because there were no more lava-like rivers, no more burning forests, and no more phoenix birds emitting divine light, the whole world seemed unusually quiet, dark, and empty, making people feel a little uncomfortable.

When I looked back, there was nothing behind me.

There are no groups of Wenma and Qinyuan, no ferocious giant snakes and feathered serpents, no mountain giants as tall as the clouds, no noble and beautiful phoenix birds, no smashed mountains and red springs on the mountains, only a simple Feilai Mountain and three thatched huts at the foot of the mountain.

"What's wrong? Senior brother!"

The junior sister looked at Lin Jue in confusion, not understanding why he was afraid of a celestial being.

"Hey?"

The fox also looked up at him in confusion.

"I don't know." Lin Jue didn't say that the Phoenix Bird was urging him to leave. After all, this was still Feilai Mountain, and he couldn't betray the people who helped them. He just said, "It's always a good thing to leave early."

"Too."

The eldest brother understood what was going on and just nodded in agreement.

"Fortunately, I got the Phoenix Feather."

Lin Jue stretched out his hand and saw a few phoenix feathers in his hand, which were extremely exquisite.

"Fortunately, I picked up a few fruit cores."

"And a pot of red spring."

"Take it..."

Lin Jue handed the Phoenix Feather to them.

Then he opened the cloth bag and released the black dog.

Just being blown by the wind always feels a little strange.

I felt a little uneasy in my heart, but when I took out the ancient book and looked through it, there was neither a new page nor a blank page.
