The stairs were very long and looked very much like the underground palace Ye Zhen had been to, but the moment she entered the stairs, she knew that this was not the palace where the blood demon was sealed.
"Didn't you say that the blood demon needs to be suppressed by the purple gas? This is not the palace, there can be no blood demon here. "Ye Zhen said as she walked. They left Fanfan outside to take care of Yu Yun Luo.
"There is no blood demon here." Wu Sheng's expression was solemn as he walked down step by step.
If there was no blood demon, what would it be?
"Is there something else you are hiding from me?" Ye Zhen asked.
"It's not a lie, because we don't know either." Wu Sheng whispered, "Maybe we will know later."
The more Ye Zhen listened, the more confused she became. "What is inside?"
Wu Sheng did not answer Ye Zhen but walked forward silently. Suddenly, he asked, "Why don't you wear Guan Jie today?"
"He is angry." Ye Zhen said helplessly.
"Really …" Wu Sheng chuckled, shook his head and sighed. "He will probably think it funny when he thinks about it later."
With Guan Jie's temperament, I'm afraid he will forget everything tomorrow. How could he be angry and favor Fire Phoenix?
"It stinks!" Fire Phoenix, who was walking in front, cried.
Wu Sheng took Ye Zhen's wrist. "Little Yao, don't go any further."
Ye Zhen looked at him doubtfully. "What's the matter?"
"You all stay here, I'll go and have a look." Wu Sheng whispered. "Ji Shen, protect Little Yao."
"Don't worry." Ji Shen waved his big hammer and stood beside Ye Zhen.
Fire Phoenix flew over. "Who needs your protection? I can protect Yao Yao."
Ye Zhen felt an unusual force in front of her. She pressed Fire Phoenix's shoulder. "Don't make trouble. Can you feel what's in front of you?"
It was not like a blood demon, nor a monster.
But there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Ye Zhen's footsteps slowed down. She didn't know if she should continue to move forward.
"Little Yao, what's wrong?" Ji Shen asked doubtfully.
Both Wu Sheng and Fire Phoenix looked back at her. "Little Yao?"
"Nothing, let's go." Ye Zhen said. She must be thinking too much.
They walked down the stone stairs. Although this place was different from the underground palace, it was still deep. It should have been passed down from ancient times.
After an unknown amount of time, they had already reached the deepest part of the abyss. Boiling hot waves assaulted their faces, and what appeared in front of them was an abyss of rolling lava. In the middle of the abyss, there was a flat peak that protruded upwards. On top of the peak, there was a white tiger lying there with a chain around its neck. It looked like it was dead or asleep, lying there motionlessly.
"Big Brother Woo Sheng!" Ji Shen's expression changed as he looked at Woo Sheng in shock.
"Mm." Wu Sheng's expression was solemn. He nodded lightly, his eyes fixed on the white tiger.
When Ye Zhen saw the white tiger lying there motionless, she felt as if her heart had been stabbed. "That … is the beast dead?"
"It's not a demonic beast." The Fire Phoenix said in a low voice, "It's the Spiritual Beast White Tiger. I thought that the Spiritual Beast White Tiger was brought to the Nine Heavens. I didn't expect to see it here."
"Spirit beast?" Ye Zhen blurted out in surprise, "How could a spirit beast be under house arrest in the human world?"
Wu Sheng said, "It's sealed here."
"Could it be that this was also sealed ten thousand years ago?" Ye Zhen asked.
"Even longer," Wu Sheng said in a low voice. Wu Sheng said in a low voice. He was referring to the fact that the White Tiger had been sealed here for a longer time than the Blood Devils.
How many years had it been?
"We have to save it," Ye Zhen said. She felt that she couldn't just turn around and leave.
The Fire Phoenix pointed at the lava in the abyss. "This is all Earth Fire. It's not good for us to go over."
"You're a Fire Phoenix. Are you afraid of this Earth Fire?" Ji Shen asked.
"I'm not afraid, but you can't go over." The Fire Phoenix snorted. Its spiritual fire was naturally not afraid of the Earth Fire, but Ye Zhen might not be able to withstand it.
Wu Sheng said, "Xiao Yao has the Sun Taming Fire. The Earth Fire can't hurt her."
"How do you know that it can't hurt Yao Yao? What if she falls in?" The Fire Phoenix shouted, not wanting Ye Zhen to take the risk. "I think that the White Tiger is already dead. It's useless to go over."
"I'm going to save it." Ye Zhen looked firmly at the White Tiger lying there. She didn't know why, but she couldn't bear not to save it. Even if there was danger, she must go and have a look.
The Fire Phoenix stamped her feet. "Although the White Tiger is a spirit beast, it is fierce and vicious. Why save it?"
"Have you seen it?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise.
Ji Shen glanced at the Fire Phoenix. "It's still a little Fire Phoenix. How can it be compared with an ancient spirit beast? It's just hearsay. He has never seen a real White Tiger."
The Fire Phoenix glared at him angrily. "Nonsense."
"I haven't seen a White Tiger either." Ye Zhen whispered. Even in the Upper God's Continent, only the Fire Phoenix was the leader of the Four Great Spirit Beasts. Even so, the Fire Phoenix was extremely rare in the three continents.
"Since the disappearance of the Dragon Race, the spirit beasts guarding the four sides have also disappeared." The Fire Phoenix said, looking a little depressed. "From childhood to adulthood, I have never seen my own kind."
Ye Zhen rubbed his hair. "Come with me to save the White Tiger."
Wu Sheng said to Ye Zhen, "We can't go through this fire. You have to be careful."
"Well, we will." Ye Zhen nodded and glanced at the Fire Phoenix.
The Fire Phoenix had no choice but to return to its original form. It let Ye Zhen sit on its back and spread its wings to fly to the center.
The Earth Fire seemed to have a mind of its own. Sensing that someone was approaching, the lava became hotter and bubbled, melting the surrounding rocks.
So hot! So hot! Ye Zhen used her spiritual power to protect herself and the Fire Phoenix. She could still feel the scorching heat. If she did not have spiritual power, she might have been burned to ashes.
"Little Yao, use the Fire of the Sun!" Wu Sheng reminded Ye Zhen to use the Fire of the Sun.
A ball of fire appeared in Ye Zhen's palm.
The originally vigorous Earth Fire paused for a moment, and a big hand made of fire pressed down on Ye Zhen.
"Little Fire, be careful!" Ye Zhen was shocked and shouted for the Fire Phoenix to dodge.
The Fire Phoenix did not see the fire hand and continued to fly forward, about to collide with the Earth Fire.
Ye Zhen screamed, thinking that they would be burned to ashes by the Earth Fire. However, the fire hand suddenly became smaller as it approached them. Ye Zhen was surrounded by a ball of Earth Fire.
"Yao Yao!" The Fire Phoenix realized that something was wrong. Ye Zhen, who was on his back, was actually … taken away by the fire?
Ye Zhen was stunned. She did not feel the heat anymore.
A blue flame like a lotus slowly appeared from the fire, approaching the Fire of the Sun in Ye Zhen's hand.
Whoosh!
The two flames fused together, and the flame in Ye Zhen's hand became a blue-red lotus.
The Fire Phoenix rushed over, grabbed Ye Zhen, and flew forward.
Ye Zhen was stunned. Looking at her hand, she turned back to look at the Earth Fire and found that the lava was slowly sinking.
