"… …" The disappearance of the black threads made Ling Chen stare blankly for a moment. He looked in front of him for a while, and then looked at the Lunar Scourge on his right wrist where the black light had disappeared. After a short moment of hesitation, he took a step forward, and at the same time raised his right arm and extended it forward.
As if it had sensed something, the Lunar Scourge's black light once again shone. In front of him, one black thread after another gradually dimmed like the black threads before, and then slowly dissipated until they completely disappeared.
These black threads are energy bodies … … they fear the Lunar Scourge's light!?
Why did this happen, Ling Chen completely did not know the reason. How many more secrets were hidden within the Lunar Scourge, he also did not know. But the reality in front of him was … … these black threads that trapped this beautiful red firebird were afraid of the Lunar Scourge's light, and would silently disappear under the Lunar Scourge's light as if they were being devoured.
If he walked closer step by step, then, these black threads would completely disappear under the Lunar Scourge's light. And that beautiful red bird … … its trembling eyes proved that it was alive. Once these black threads disappeared, it would break free from the seal and obtain freedom.
Ling Chen's footsteps stopped in place, and did not continue to move forward. Even if he was an idiot, he should have understood that this sealed bird was definitely not a normal beast. It undoubtedly possessed great strength, and even under the seal, it still released a red light and a scorching aura, clearly proving that it was not normal. If this was an extremely evil beast, then if he used the Lunar Scourge to release it, perhaps it would immediately kill him, and after escaping it would cause trouble everywhere … … he would become a sinner. In addition, if this really was something that "scary guy" had always been guarding, and knew that he was the one who released it, then, without a doubt, that person with Mysterious God level strength would definitely hate him to the bone, and would then endlessly hunt him down … … Being hunted down by a person with Mysterious God level strength, no matter how strong a player was, they would definitely be completely crippled, and would never be able to develop in this game world again.
Therefore, Ling Chen stopped in his tracks, and did not continue to move forward.
The disappearance of the black threads under the Lunar Scourge's light was clearly seen by the Red Firebird. Its red eyes flashed with a dazzling golden light, and its fiery red feathers shot out little sparks of excitement. But immediately, it saw that Ling Chen had stopped and even retracted his right arm. The black light from the bracelet also gradually disappeared … It became anxious, and its red eyes trembled … It was a pleading light.
Ling Chen understood the pleading in its eyes. This was a psychic beast. Its emotions were very vivid. However, Ling Chen didn't know its bottom line at all. He didn't know whether it was good or evil. Even if it was a good beast, saving it would bring great danger to Ling Chen.
However, Ling Chen did not turn around and leave. It was because this bird was simply too beautiful, and such a beautiful creature was trapped in a net, losing all of its freedom. Perhaps no one could bear to see such a thing happen. Ling Chen also subconsciously felt sorry for it, and even had the urge to save it. His long hesitation allowed the Red Firebird to see hope in its anxiety, but it was unable to move, and also unable to make a sound. It could only use its eyes to express its pleading. It already didn't know how many years it had been trapped here. It originally thought that it would never be able to escape, but at this moment, it suddenly saw a dazzling ray of hope … … Therefore, it had to fight for it at all costs.
"You should have been trapped here for over ten thousand years, you are indeed very pitiful." Ling Chen looked at it, and suddenly spoke. "I don't know why you are trapped here, and I don't know whether you are good or evil. I don't even know why this thing in my hand can save you … … So, I don't know whether or not I should save you."
"But … …" Ling Chen smiled, and took a step forward while smiling. At the same time, he raised his right hand. As he walked forward, the light of the Lunar Scourge appeared again, swallowing the black threads one by one: "Me coming here and meeting you was a very, very big coincidence. The thing in my hand that can save you was an even bigger coincidence, such a miraculous coincidence … … Perhaps, it was destiny that allowed you to escape this cage. However, this is not the main reason why I decided to save you … … I have a little sister, and for a long time, she was entangled with a terminal illness. It was a kind of despair that prevented us from seeing any light of hope. However, it was also a meeting that seemed to be fated by the heavens, and my little sister was saved. It was also because of this that I sincerely thanked the heavens for the first time. This time, I met you here, and to put myself in your shoes, I had no choice but to save you … … Otherwise, if everyone was too apprehensive and too selfish, perhaps … … I would have already lost the most important person in my life. As for the consequences of saving you, whether it is good or bad, I will bear all of it myself, and can't blame anyone else. "
Ling Chen calmly spoke as he walked forward step by step. As he moved forward, the black threads disappeared one after another, one after another.
When Ling Chen stood at the center of this space, the light of the Lunar Scourge completely enveloped all of the black threads in this space. In an instant, all of the black threads became dim and withered under the light of the Lunar Scourge … … Then, they slowly dissipated like mist, until they all disappeared without a trace.
Chirp ~ ~ ~
A long bird's cry sounded in this quiet underground space. As the black net completely disappeared, the red firebird that had regained its freedom let out a long cry of excitement. It happily flapped its wings and flew high up into the air, all the way until it was above Ling Chen. It circled above his head, accompanied by flashes of red sparks. Its cry seemed to be releasing its excitement from regaining its freedom, and also seemed to be expressing its gratitude to Ling Chen.
As the red firebird left, the originally scorching heat wave disappeared, causing Ling Chen's discomfort to completely disappear. The red firebird that had regained its freedom should have also regained its ability to control flames, and retracted the scorching heat that it had released before. Ling Chen raised his head to look at it. Its entire body was like a cluster of burning flames, within the flames there was a noble and gorgeous golden light. It was beautiful beyond compare, and was pleasing to the eye. The red firebird that had regained its freedom did not give him any dangerous aura, and from its movements and cries, he could feel true gratitude.
At the very least, this was not an evil beast, so he had not saved the wrong person.
"Ok, quickly leave this place. You should have been sealed by that terrifying person guarding this place. He just happened to leave, and will be back soon. However, he'll be back soon. If you don't leave in time and get caught by him, I won't be able to save you again … go. "Ling Chen said as he looked at her.
Chirp ~ ~ ~
The red firebird understood Ling Chen's words. It circled around Ling Chen a few more times before finally spreading its wings and flying in the direction of the tunnel. It then passed through the tunnel, passed through the tunnel, and flew to who knows where.
"It's rare for me to do a good deed, it feels pretty good." Ling Chen said to himself, looking at his right wrist. The Lunar Scourge had already returned to its normal bracelet form, but its performance just now made Ling Chen unable to help but pay attention. The black threads just now should have contained a lot of power, but under the light of the Lunar Scourge, they all disappeared so easily. Just how many more secrets were hidden within the Lunar Scourge …
The black threads all disappeared. The red firebird that had regained its freedom had also left. The entire space became empty, and there was nothing else. Ling Chen went back the way he came. Not long after, he climbed the rope ladder and returned to the peak of the mountain. Beside him was the large rock that he had pushed over, beside his ears was the slight whistling of the cold wind, and in front of him was a vast expanse of gray, unable to see too far ahead.
From the time he entered Lonely Spirit Ridge until now, more than four hours had passed. Looking at the vast expanse of fog in the distance, Ling Chen faintly let out a breath. The surroundings were deathly silent. The red firebird that he had saved before should have already left. It was indeed too dangerous for it to stay, and if he stayed here, wouldn't he be constantly in danger ….. Every second he stayed here, the danger would increase by a bit. When that terrifying person returns, everything will be hopeless.
After four hours without any results, should he continue searching?
"Little Gray, do you think we should continue searching?" Unable to make a choice, Ling Chen could only ask the only companion he could communicate with. Little Gray tilted its head, wagged its tail, and thought for a long time, but still didn't know how to answer. They had traveled hundreds of miles from Azure Dragon City to this place, and then they had passed through the Ghastly Grounds to reach this place. Furthermore, they had seized a rare opportunity. More than four hours had passed since the start of their search. If they were to leave now, they would not be able to accept it. Because maybe that damned Phyllostachys Nigra really wasn't far ahead.
But if Phyllostachys Nigra really didn't exist in Lonely Spirit Ridge, continuing to search would only send him into a hopeless situation ….. Once Ling Chen died, his level would directly return to zero! After returning, he would also have to bear a huge quest penalty.
"Search for another hour!" Looking ahead, Ling Chen took a deep breath and said in a low voice. Then he quickly walked forward.
Phyllostachys Nigra was no longer in Lonely Spirit Ridge, this was a fact that too many people didn't know. Even if Ling Chen continued to search for a hundred years, or even a thousand years, he wouldn't be able to find anything.
Walking from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the other side, he still found nothing. Ling Chen's desire to leave grew stronger and stronger. After a few minutes, he stood at the foot of another mountain. Looking up, he was just about to take a step forward, when suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"Big brother ….. big brother!!"
Ling Chen's body suddenly froze, and Soaring Cloud and the Zephyr Blade instantly appeared in his hands.
This was a human's voice ….. and it was an incomparably melodious voice of a young girl.
In the forbidden land that no one dared to enter, in the Lonely Spirit Ridge, where anyone who entered would die, a girl's voice actually came. Ling Chen walked all the way, but he didn't see the existence of a single person. However, this voice came from behind him. Although this was a girl's voice, he was more shocked than shocked.
Silently appearing behind him, just this point alone was enough to prove that this was definitely a terrifying person.
Could it be that the "terrifying person" that Qian Gungun spoke of ….. is finally back!!
