In the underground river, Yuan Zhaoxi looked at the little golden eagle flapping happily, with a bright smile on his face.
Suddenly, her heart palpitated, and a vague voice echoed in her mind:
"Come here, come here..."
Yuan Zhaoxi looked doubtfully into the depths of the underground river, floating in the water blankly, speechless for a long time. Seeing this scene, Bai Liming couldn't help but asked with concern:
"Chao Xi, what's wrong with you?"
After shouting several times in a row, Yuan Chaoxi came back to his senses and said with doubts on his face:
"There seems to be something calling me there, Baili, what is hidden in this place?"
Bailiming was stunned when he heard this, then thought for a moment and said:
"There is a cliff deep in the underground river. Under the cliff is an abyss that cannot be seen to the bottom. There seems to be a terrifying existence hidden in the abyss."
"Ah, a terrifying existence? What is that? Are we just leaving the tiger's den and entering the wolf's den again?"
The little golden eagle also heard the conversation between the two, and interrupted with some worry.
Bai Liming fell into deep thought, carefully recalling the fish demon he dreamed about that night and what he saw when he came to the abyss. Gradually, the dream became clearer and emerged in his mind.
He thought again of the existence of terrifying flames burning all over his body, and the painful feeling of being burned by raging flames. He couldn't help but shudder, and said hurriedly:
"It seems to be Nangong Suzaku, one of the Four Spirits of Heaven and the Four Divine Beasts from ancient times."
"What? The mythical beast Suzaku?"
Yuan Zhaoxi and Little Golden Eagle couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise. Bai Liming nodded and continued:
"Yes, it is the legendary mythical beast Suzaku. I dreamed that a fish demon entered this place in order to obtain the inner elixir of the Suzaku."
"If you find the inner elixir of the sacred beast Suzaku, if you can refine it and absorb it, you will immediately become the most powerful being."
The little golden eagle's eyes were shining, its wings were flapping, and it was eager to find it.
Baili Ming hurriedly grabbed his wings and stopped him:
"Don't take risks. Although there is only a remnant soul of the Suzaku, its power burns the sky and the earth. The fish demon in the dream was instantly incinerated by the flames, leaving not even ashes. Let's meditate here to recuperate.
Restore your mana and heal your injuries, the Suzaku inner elixir is not something we can covet."
The little golden eagle stopped helplessly, paddled its wings and landed on the shore. It sat on the shore and sighed with disappointment.
Seeing his appearance, Yuan Chaoxi also swam to the shore and comforted him:
"Xiao Feifei, Baili is right. We are all sick, weak, and disabled now. We can no longer take risks. We need to recuperate our bodies first, and then make plans when we can regain our strength."
Bailiming, who walked ashore, was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise:
"Xiao Feifei? When did you change your name, General Zhou?"
Yuan Chaoxi looked a little embarrassed, rolled her eyes and explained seriously:
"General Zhou is the one who came back to Demon-Slaying Pass with me disguised as a spiritual pet. In order not to arouse other people's attention and suspicion, I couldn't call him General Zhou anymore, so I, I gave him a pseudonym. I didn't expect him to
I quite like it.”
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and motioned for Little Golden Eagle to answer. Facing Miss Yuan, who always bullied her, Little Golden Eagle had already resigned herself to her fate. He nodded feebly and said in a sweet voice:
"Hey, Baili, you can also call me Xiao Feifei. The name Zhou Jiang is really not suitable for calling me in the Taoist sect, nor does it suit my current cute and well-behaved appearance."
Bailiming was speechless for a moment, then coughed twice and said:
"I'd better call you General Zhou. I'm not used to calling you Xiao Feifei. I can't say it out loud. I always feel..."
Having said this, he looked at Yuan Chaoxi, who had an unkind look, and hurriedly changed his words:
"Ah, Xiao Feifei suits you very well. Chao Xi and I have our own affairs and don't interfere with each other."
Yuan Zhaoxi rolled her eyes at Bai Liming and glared at the little golden eagle, then she sat cross-legged and meditated, breathing out spiritual energy calmly, but the calls came from time to time in her ears, which made her a little uneasy.
Her intuition told her that the sacred beast Suzaku had a great connection with her. After all, her demon clan heritage was the legendary Suzaku bloodline, and after she broke the seal and merged the power of the bloodline with the soul, what was manifested was the same.
The primordial spirit in bloodline form - the Suzaku beast.
She turned to look at Bai Liming beside her and asked softly:
"Baili, do you think there is really the Suzaku beast under that abyss?"
Bailiming, who was meditating, opened his eyes, thought for a moment and said:
"I can't be sure. After all, the Suzaku beast is just an ancient legend and is too far away from us. I guess the existence under the abyss should be a powerful fire monster. Although it is dead, there is still a trace of residual thoughts left, which will be unconscious.
Attack anyone who comes near it."
Yuan Chaoxi hesitated to speak. After a moment of silence, he finally made up his mind and said:
"Baili, do you still remember that when the ceremony to transform the demon clan's heritage was held in Gongmi, Qianshan County, something strange happened to me suddenly?"
"Remember, you said at that time that you were a little tired. Is there another hidden reason?"
Bai Liming asked in confusion, and the little golden eagle also tilted his head and looked over.
Yuan Chaoxi sighed softly, a trace of bitterness appeared in her watery eyes, and then she said quietly:
"Actually, I am affected by the power of activating the bloodline in the magic circle, because I am also a descendant of the demon clan."
"What? Are you a descendant of the demon clan?"
The little golden eagle was so surprised that he couldn't help shouting. Bailiming was stunned for a moment, but then he understood, and his expression was not too disturbing.
Yuan Chaoxi took a deep look at Bailiming and said:
"You really noticed something."
The little golden eagle looked dumbfounded and asked puzzledly:
"Aware? Baili, what did you notice?"
Baili Ming smiled slightly, sighed and explained:
"Previously at Tiandao Temple, when you asked the Wu Lao Yao Clan's heritage how to refine the natal spiritual objects, I had some guesses, but I was not sure. This time you took the initiative to tell such an important secret. I am sure
Quite surprised, since you are a descendant of the demon clan, could it be that Chief Yuan and he..."
After Yuan Chaoxi told her secret, she felt much relieved, as if a big stone pressing on her heart had been removed. She nodded and said:
"Yes, my father is a descendant of the demon race. I inherited his bloodline. After I was born, my father imposed a bloodline seal on me. I can't break it until I advance to the true realm and can manifest my soul.
Open, then the power of my bloodline will merge with the soul, and no one else will question it when the soul manifests itself."
She paused briefly, as if recalling the past, and then continued:
"It's just that later General Zhou and I met Gong Mi. In order to protect myself, I used the method of refining demon pills in the "Shenshen Dafa" to forcibly improve my realm. I also broke the bloodline seal, and the soul's transformation form was normal.
It’s the sacred beast Suzaku.”
Hearing this, Bai Liming and Little Golden Eagle simultaneously thought of the divine bird whose whole body was burning with red flames.
"I feel the call of the Suzaku beast under the abyss all the time, the call of the deep bloodline. I want to go there now and have a look. If it is really the source of my bloodline, then I may really be able to refine that bloodline.
strength."
Yuan Chaoxi looked at Bailiming with burning eyes and spoke firmly. Bailiming felt her heart and stopped trying to dissuade her:
"Okay, let's go over and take a look together, explore slowly, and evacuate immediately if there is any danger."
…
Under the guidance of the little red snake, Gong Mi turned into black smoke and ran all the way to the foot of the Holy Lake Mountain.
The centurion, who was full of beard and sinewy face, was shocked at first when he saw this. After he recognized that he was the subordinate of the young master of the demon clan, he immediately put on a flattering smile and asked cautiously:
"General, has he left something behind? Just ask the little guy to help you find it."
"I'm going to Tianhu. Don't get in the way and get out of the way."
Gong Mi said impatiently. The centurion wanted to stop him but didn't dare to step forward. Looking at the cold expression of the demon general in front of him, he couldn't help but trembled and hurriedly stepped aside and gave way to the mountain.
the road.
Seeing that he recognized his appearance, Gong Mi was not embarrassed. After taking a few steps out, she frowned slightly and thought to herself:
"If I let these guards reveal my whereabouts, the massacre of the Ding Ling tribe will definitely be exposed. Only the dead can bear the secret."
Thinking of this, dozens of thick poisonous snakes sprang out from under her and pounced on the soldiers who were bowing to see them off.
The screams rang out and then calmed down after a moment. The dozen soldiers had disappeared, and a dozen pot-bellied poisonous snakes swam and crawled back under Gong Mi's skirt again.
Arriving next to Tianhu Lake, Gong Mi looked around blankly, with confusion and confusion on his face:
