One by one, the figures charged into the cave and disappeared.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, shall we go in as well?"
Lu Ming came to Tian Chui and Xue Ningxin's side and returned to his original appearance.
"Alright, let's go in and have a look!"
Tian Chui said.
"Lu Ming, I won't go in!"
Eden shook his head.
Eden knew that with his cultivation, he would not be of any use if he went in. If he encountered danger, he would be a burden to Lu Ming and the others.
Lu Ming nodded and did not say anything. He rushed into the cave with Tian Chui and Xue Ningxin.
The cave was huge. After rushing in, there was a slanted passage leading downwards.
At this time, another phoenix cry was heard. It came from the bottom of the cave, but it was low, weak, and full of despair.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Then, there was a terrible roar from below.
"Is there a big battle down there?"
Lu Ming and the other two's expressions changed. They became even more cautious. They restrained their auras completely and took out their sacred weapons at any time. At the same time, Lu Ming was prepared to bring Tian Chui and Xue Ningxin into the Mountain River Painting.
The passage was not long. Soon, the three of them reached the end.
At the end of the passage was a huge and spacious underground cave. It seemed to be man-made.
As soon as Lu Ming and the other two entered the underground cave, they were stunned. They looked ahead in horror.
In front of the underground cave, there was a huge wall. On the wall, there was a phoenix nailed.
Yes, a divine phoenix was nailed to the wall. Its wings and legs were pierced through and nailed to the wall. Its neck was also chained to the wall.
Blood continued to flow from his wings, from his feet, and along the wall.
At that moment, the phoenix was already extremely weak. Its aura was like gossamer.
Chirp …
It let out a mournful cry that was full of despair.
Lu Ming was shocked. It seemed that the cry of the phoenix that was heard in the Tianfeng Plains was from this phoenix. It was full of despair and unwillingness.
A divine bird, a phoenix, was nailed to the wall by someone. It could only watch as its blood flowed out and died. How unreconciled was this?
Who was it that did this?
Boom! Boom!
The violent roar interrupted Lu Ming's train of thought. It also made Lu Ming shift his gaze away from the phoenix and look down.
Below the wall, there was an ancient altar.
The blood of the Phoenix flowed along the wall and flowed onto the altar, seeping into it.
A mirror floated above the altar.
This mirror was engraved with the image of a phoenix. Furthermore, the image of a phoenix was fluttering around the surface of the mirror. The resplendent light was emitted by this mirror.
Chirp …
The cry of a phoenix resounded. It was intense, high-pitched, and filled with the domineering aura of the king of birds.
Lu Ming finally realized that the phoenix phantom that had appeared on the mountain and the high-pitched cry had come from this mirror.
There were indeed two different phoenix cries. One belonged to the phoenix, and the other belonged to the mirror.
This mirror was enveloped by a halo that exuded a terrifying pressure. The eight Saints were attacking the halo on the mirror.
"This pressure … seems to be the pressure of an Emperor?"
Lu Ming was shocked when he felt the pressure from the mirror.
He had felt the pressure of Emperor Cang and the Soul Destroyer Shakyamuni before. It was extremely similar to this ancient mirror.
An Emperor Weapon!
A word flashed across Lu Ming's mind.
There was really an Emperor Weapon here!
"This is a formation!"
Lu Ming's eyes narrowed.
With his eye of discernment, he could easily tell that the altar and the ground beside it were covered in runes, forming a huge formation.
"This is a sealing formation. The Emperor Weapon is the core. Also, the phoenix that was nailed to the wall is the key to breaking the formation. The blood that flowed out can break the formation!"
At this moment, many thoughts flashed across Lu Ming's mind.
Someone had injured the phoenix and nailed it to the wall. The phoenix's resentful blood was used to break the formation here.
Now, they had barged into this place. The eight Saints were obviously attracted by the Emperor Weapon. They were attacking the halo with all their might, trying to seize the Emperor Weapon.
In this way, they would be helping to break the formation.
If Lu Ming could see and think of all these, the eight Sage Realm powerhouses would definitely be able to think of all these as well. However, the eight Sage Realm powerhouses no longer cared about anything else. They only had eyes for the Emperor Weapon.
As long as they could get the Emperor Weapon, it did not matter what formation they broke.
The eight Sage Realm powerhouses continued to bombard the light screen, causing the underground cavern to shake continuously.
The others watched from afar. They could not interfere at all.
Crack!
After a while, the halo could not take it anymore. It let out a cracking sound. A crack appeared on the halo. Then, the number of cracks increased. Finally, the halo exploded with a bang.
When the halo shattered, the cry of a phoenix reverberated through the cavern.
"The Emperor Weapon is mine!"
A Saint of the Celestial Divinity Sect shouted.
"Dream on. Let's see if you have the ability to get the Emperor Weapon!"
The Saint of the Desire Poison Sect roared. His body was covered in poisonous gas that surged toward the Saint of the Celestial Divinity Sect. At the same time, he formed a huge hand and grabbed at the Ancient Phoenix Mirror.
"Scram! Those who block me will die!"
"Kill!"
It was a mess. It was a complete mess.
When the halo shattered, the eight Saints were in a complete mess. The eight of them rushed toward the Ancient Phoenix Mirror. At the same time, they fought fiercely.
The value of an Emperor Weapon was too high. It was unimaginable.
Dong!
A huge hand formed from poisonous gas grabbed at the Ancient Phoenix Mirror. However, the Ancient Phoenix Mirror trembled and a phoenix cried. A beam of light shot out from the Ancient Phoenix Mirror and destroyed the huge hand.
But then, a huge hand completely condensed from holy light grabbed at the Ancient Phoenix Mirror.
Chirp …
The Ancient Phoenix Mirror cried out. Then, a phoenix shadow rushed out and destroyed the huge hand. Then, the Ancient Phoenix Mirror trembled and flew toward the top.
A huge cauldron, a Saint Weapon, came down to suppress the Ancient Phoenix Mirror. However, the Ancient Phoenix Mirror flashed and dodged the cauldron's suppression.
The huge cauldron did not suppress the Ancient Phoenix Mirror. Its terrifying power slammed into the altar below, causing it to explode.
Boom!
On the other side, the Ancient Phoenix Mirror crashed into the wall above. Rubble flew everywhere. The Ancient Phoenix Mirror pierced through the mountain and created a tunnel. The Ancient Phoenix Mirror flew out along the tunnel.
"Where are you going?"
"Chase!"
The eight Saints soared into the sky and chased after the Ancient Phoenix Mirror. In the blink of an eye, there was not a single Saint left in the underground cavern.
At this time, everyone looked at the Phoenix that was nailed to the wall.
