Black Feather Cliff. After a year and a half of travel, Grimm and the seven-colored rooster finally arrived.
"After I escaped from the Colosseum, I was saved by this Lord Black Phoenix. It was not until twelve hundred years ago that I left the Black Plume Cliff. Lord Black Phoenix has a very high reputation among the exiles. He is the backbone of the local exiles of the Underground Abyss who resist the Abyss Wyvern. He has connections with many Stigmata Sorcerers of this world."
The seven-colored rooster introduced Grimm to the identity of its friend on top of a jagged black cliff far away from the desert.
At this moment, the rainbow rooster couldn't help but recall the scene from a few months ago where Grimm had transformed into a savage giant after obtaining the Jade Fruit and swallowed it whole. Its eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
After being nourished by the Jasper Fruit, Grimm's Wild Instinct Transformation's scale defense had been strengthened. The multicolored rooster could feel this firsthand.
This fellow's terrifying strength after transforming into a savage giant was probably no less than that of Lord Black Phoenix.
"Caw caw caw caw, black phoenix?"
Little Eight perked up when she heard the words "Black Phoenix".
"The Sorcerer World doesn't have creatures like phoenixes. In ancient times, in order to resist the invasion of the Abyss World, the First Ring Celestial Sorcerer summoned two Eternal Dominators, the Fiery Phoenix and the Ice Phoenix, from a powerful foreign world far away, to descend upon the Sorcerer World. Afterwards, the Ice Phoenix fell in the final battle to exterminate the Phaseless Ancient Demon from the underground abyss. It seems that this Black Phoenix is most likely a descendant of the Abyss that was tainted with the blood of the Ice Phoenix. Interesting, hahahaha … "
Little Eight knew quite a lot about the ancient civilization war.
The rooster didn't know a thing about the history of the Sorcerer World, but Grimm noted it down with great interest.
The One Ring Celestial Sorcerer actually summoned the Fiery Phoenix and the Ice Phoenix, two Eternal Dominators, from a distant and powerful world to the Sorcerers World. They did not fall after the Ancient War. This powerful Celestial Sorcerer who founded the Elemental Sorcerers was able to let the Elemental Sorcerers remain in the dominant position in the Sorcerers World.
"Please recommend me when the time comes."
Saying that, Grimm silently handed over the treasures he had prepared in advance to the seven-colored rooster. The seven-colored rooster's eyes lit up and it put it away with satisfaction.
…
It was a grand and majestic hall in the style of the Abyss, a dark and bloodthirsty style of black and red.
On the throne in the palace, the black phoenix that had shrunk to around two meters in size turned to look at the rainbow rooster and Grimm with a surprised expression. Its black feathers were extremely glossy, and it exuded waves of spatial fluctuations. This black phoenix also possessed the ability to break through the boundaries of relative space.
"Oh? Qisuo, you actually have the time to visit me. Hehehe, this is … "
Apart from the black phoenix, there were two other guests in the hall.
One of them was a Cyclops Demon. He was three meters tall and had a single large eye on his face. He was using a toothpick to pick up the eyeballs of some unknown creature on a plate, carefully tasting them.
The other creature was a carrot-like creature that was only about half a meter tall. It was sitting on the shoulder of a lush treant that was more than ten meters tall. It looked curiously at the Seven-Colored Rooster and Grimm before its gaze finally landed on Little Myna, who was standing on Grimm's shoulder proudly like it was.
The seven-colored rooster put down its gift, and a spatial ripple appeared before it disappeared without a trace.
The rainbow rooster smiled. "Master Black Phoenix, this is Sir Despair's Shadow. He has heard of your name and wishes to complete a transaction with you. I haven't seen you in a long time, so of course I would like to pay you a visit as well."
Just as the rainbow rooster was introducing himself, a large flock of black doves flew over and carried two wooden tables.
Different Abyss delicacies were placed on each of the tables, matched to the human sorcerer's taste and the rainbow rooster's.
Green said with a timely smile, "I've long heard of Lord Black Phoenix's wide social network. I've come to visit you without an invitation. I hope Lord Black Phoenix can be magnanimous enough to forgive my rudeness."
"Hehehehe, come, come. Let me introduce you. This is the Cyclops Demon King of the Abyss. Qisuo isn't too familiar with him, but as an elemental sorcerer, Sir Despair's Shadow, you should be very familiar with him, right?"
Hmm?!
This Black Phoenix could see through Grimm's identity as an elemental sorcerer. Did this mean that the Black Phoenix had noticed Grimm's Mana Bite?
As for the One-eyed Troll King, the blood of the Troll was a common material used to break curses during the Sorcerer-Apprentice period. Any Elemental Sorcerer would not be unfamiliar with the Troll. The hidden history could be traced back to the failed history of the Ancient Sorcerers who attempted to use Curse Sorcery to defeat and control the innumerable servants of the Abyss, the Phaseless Ancient Demons.
Grimm raised his glass and saluted the Cyclops Demon with the sorcerer's etiquette.
"As for this one, he's a guest from the Ginseng Tree Fairy's world. Although he's only a projected will, he's a good friend of mine for many years."
The Ginseng Tree Goblin and Little Myna looked at each other in silence, while the giant tree beneath them kept gobbling up the delicacies on the table, making "gulp", "gulp", "gulp" sounds.
"Damn, what are you looking at? Haven't you seen such a beautiful and great Steel Emblem Myna before?"
Little Eight yelled at the top of her lungs.
"No, no, no, I'm just very surprised by the symbiotic relationship you formed with this sorcerer. Hahaha, Black Phoenix, since you have a friend here, let's meet another day."
As it spoke, the Ginseng Tree Fairy patted the giant tree beneath it. Its body gradually faded and disappeared.
"Black Phoenix, then it's settled. I won't disturb you anymore."
As it spoke, the Abyss Cyclops stuck a toothpick into the last eyeball in the giant glass and chewed on it. Then, its body turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared.
The Black Phoenix looked at the colorful rooster and Grimm with a smile. "Don't mind me, hehehe. Let's continue …"
…
Three days later.
The colorful rooster left. Grimm and the Black Phoenix sat across from each other.
Rumble, rumble, rumble. The elegant Black Phoenix said nonchalantly, "You'll get used to it after staying in the Abyss for a long time. Earthquakes like this happen so frequently that you can't even sleep well if you don't come once every few days."
The Black Phoenix tossed the one thousand Sorcerer Essence Balls that Grimm had given him into the air. He said with great interest, "Regarding the Ancient Demon servants' attempts to search for the Phaseless Ancient Demon's ruins, it's no secret to me on the surface of the Abyss. Those disgusting fellows have the Ancient Demon's Will Fragments flowing in their bodies. It's their instinct to serve the Phaseless Ancient Demon. But the reward that you've given me is only enough for me to tell you some uncertain information about the Ancient Demon servants."
Grimm looked at the Black Phoenix's expectant gaze. After a moment of thought, an Ice Top appeared in his hand.
"This is a consumable created by a World Lord's soul, life force, and cold energy. It should be of some help to you."
As expected, the Ice Top's appearance greatly interested the Black Phoenix. He couldn't help but play with it as if he couldn't bear to part with it.
"Good, good, good. Not bad at all."
With a flash, the Ice Top disappeared and the Black Phoenix tossed a map to Grimm.
"Reliable information. An Ancient Demon's Seal Ruin has been discovered here. A large number of Ancient Demon's servants are gathering here. However, compared to the Ancient Demon's Seal Ruin, this never-before-seen Stigmata Ruin is our real target."
After Grimm took the map, a playful smile appeared on the Black Phoenix's face. "The Ginseng Tree Fairy isn't willing to come to the Sorcerer World. If that's the case, you'll take its place and join me and the One-eyed Troll on this expedition. This might be a big discovery. There are many powerful beings gathered here. What you get will depend on yourself. We'll depart in ten years! "
Grimm narrowed his eyes. He had unintentionally joined a large-scale expedition of the Abyss's surface exiles.
