Not long after, Gong Xinran, Gao Yi, and the others disappeared from the peak of the mountain under their watchful eyes.
Chu Xue reluctantly retracted her gaze, giggling, "Young Master's senior sister is a good person! Why don't you marry her? "
Zong Shou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, knocking Chu Xue's head as a form of punishment. Not to mention that Gong Xinran's relationship with Gao Yi was really ambiguous, and he didn't really like her. Even he himself had someone he liked.
Subconsciously, an elegant and refined figure flashed through his mind. He shook his head. The one he met in the last life was, after all, a virtual character created by the A.I. of the future. He didn't know what was going on with her in real life.
Speaking of which, he found it amusing. He was such a nerd. He only saw a back view and a dance at the peak of Sheng Mountain. He didn't even say a single word and he was already thinking about her. He knew that she was just a virtual character, but he still couldn't forget about her.
Chu Xue hugged her head, unhappy with Zong Shou's violent actions, "Why did Young Master hit me? Did Chu Xue say something wrong? I see that Gao Yi is so weird. Instead of marrying him, Sister Xinran might as well marry the Young Master! The Dragon Spirit City Gao Family is so much weaker than our Gantian Mountain! Young Master does have a fiancée, but which one of the Monster Kings in Donglin Cloud Continent doesn't have many wives? Father told me that Jun Shang's lineage is passed down to only one person. When Old Master was here, he hoped that Young Master would give him more children. In case he is bullied by those direct bloodlines of the Zong Family … "
Zong Shou's lips twitched. It wasn't much if other people said those words. However, when it came out of Chu Xue's mouth, it sounded weird.
However, this Gao Yi was really suspicious. Even someone as pure and innocent as Chu Xue felt it. However, this person had been with Gong Xinran for three years. With this person's character, what kind of woman couldn't he find? If he didn't like Gong Xinran, why would he do that?
Furthermore, at this moment, he couldn't help. He could only hope that Gao Yi's killing intent was only directed at him. Or perhaps, after he obtained that item, he would still be able to make it …
His gaze was gloomy as he looked up. Zong Shou smiled and flicked Chu Xue's brow, "If she isn't willing, can we snatch it? Let's go, let's go find that Lightning Phoenix egg! "
When he said that, he activated the Wind Traveling Spirit Bone and walked to the other side of the Demon Corpse Mountain. Chu Xue thought, so what if I snatch it by force? Could it be that he really had to search for that Thunder Phoenix egg?
It wasn't until he saw Zong Shou walking further and further away that he hurriedly followed behind.
She continued climbing up to forty thousand feet..... Zong Shou's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he suddenly stopped. Zong Shou ''s.
"We're here!"
Following Zong Shou's line of sight, Chu Xue looked over in shock, only to see a giant and steep mountain wall in front of her eyes. It stretched out from the main body of the Demon Corpse Mountain and stretched out tens of thousands of feet. It was thirty thousand feet high and extremely steep.
Zong Shou's gaze slowly revealed a complicated expression. In the next moment, he reached out and hugged Chu Xue before jumping up. His body rose thirty feet, the Wind Traveling Spirit Bone at his waist and legs stretched out a few flying claws, grabbing onto the stone in front of him.
Little Gold, which was hidden in his sleeves, had unknowingly arrived on his back. It stretched out ten tentacles, the ends of which turned into suction cups as it tightly stuck onto the mountain wall.
His entire body was like a multi-legged spider, rapidly climbing upwards.
Chu Xue felt weird, thinking to herself, how could the Lightning Phoenix egg be here?
However, thinking about how amazing her Young Master was these few months, she couldn't help but keep quiet. He could only silently urge the Dark Chill Tiger to protect the two of them.
Spirit beasts were formed from soul power and didn't have any weight. This was why although the Dark Chill Tiger didn't have the ability to fly when it was alive, it could still follow closely by their side.
After climbing ten thousand feet, just as Little Gold's strength was slowly being used up and it was showing signs of exhaustion. The area in front of the two of them suddenly widened, and they had already reached the peak of the mountain wall.
At the highest point, there was a thousand-foot wide platform. Although it was close to the waist of the Demon Corpse Mountain, there was a giant gully between them.
Not only were the beasts unable to come over, but even the beasts in the sky wouldn't bother.
Zong Shou didn't even look around. After putting down Chu Xue, he activated the Wind Traveling Spirit Bone and with a few leaps, he arrived at the center of the platform.
This area was slightly sunken, and it was a hundred feet wide hot spring, giving off hot steam. The water that seeped out flowed to the right, forming a waterfall.
Chu Xue followed behind and stopped beside Zong Shou. When the hot spring below entered her eyes, she exclaimed, "How is this a hot spring?" She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master, what are you doing here?"
Zong Shou's face was serious, shaking his head and not replying. The bright glow in his eyes flickered uncertainly.
In his memory, the spring water here should be cold. This was also the reason why Chuxue was so shocked. Below the stone wall, there was a natural water vein, which was why it could gather the water spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
At this moment, since the water was still warm, then the thing inside should still be there.
Based on the normal path, this item should have been found by a day wandering spirit master ten years later when the spiritual energy wave started to affect the entire Cloud Continent. In just half a year, he helped that person's sect develop an ascended ancestor.
The later generations of that sect had long since perished, leaving behind only some legends whose authenticity was unknown. In the library that Zong Shou was in in his last life, there was a book that recorded this part of history.
He had once explored this place in the illusory realm on a whim. Naturally, there wouldn't be such an item in the game.
The only thing he was worried about was whether or not he could use the Lightning Phoenix egg as he wished.
His breathing was slightly heavy. A moment later, Zong Shou gave out a self-mocking laugh. This item was simply too important to him. He had no choice but to worry about it.
Taking in a deep breath, he forcefully pulled Chu Xue's hand and jumped into the hot spring without hesitation.
After sinking down two hundred feet, Zong Shou's body suddenly shot up. The Pine Pattern Wind Sword was suddenly unsheathed. Gathering all the strength in his body, he stabbed out to the side.
Under the water resistance, Zong Shou's strength was reduced by seventy percent. Luckily, the stone wall at the side wasn't firm. The moment the sword tip touched it, it would collapse to the side.
As for Zong Shou and Chu Xue, the two of them were swept in by the surging water. With much difficulty, they stabilized their bodies and floated up to the surface. In front of them was a small cave that was roughly three hundred feet wide.
The cave was really dark and they couldn't see anything. However, the air was really fresh, so there should be another tunnel that connected to the outside of the cliff.
Zong Shou casually made a hand sign, summoning a fist-sized flame in his palm to light up the cave. Following which, Chu Xue took in a deep cold breath. Her expression was fixed as she looked forward.
Only to see that in the middle of the cave, there was a giant purple egg. It was five feet tall, and beside it was the eye of the hot spring. Around it was boiling water. The surface of the eggshell was filled with many weird patterns. It was like the lightning during a thunderstorm, its path was really special.
Chu Xue was startled on the spot. The corner of Zong Shou's lips curled up, "There's no need to guess, this is the Lightning Phoenix egg! However, ten thousand years have passed, and there is no life within. Even if we get the Ten Thousand Spirit Longevity Jade, we won't be able to hatch it … "
"It's really the Lightning Phoenix egg?"
Chuxue sucked in a breath of cold air as her eyes widened to their limits. The Desolate Lightning Phoenix was one of the god beasts. Even the descendant, the Thunder Eagle, who had only inherited a tenth of his bloodline, was now an incomparably powerful and ferocious bird. It was one of the few protector beasts that spirit masters dreamed of.
At this moment, this god beast egg was placed in front of her. Even if she knew that it couldn't be hatched, it still shocked her.
