"Brother! Look, is that the Fire Phoenix's lair?"
"That should be it!"
Seeing that Li Yong was impatient and about to rush over, Li Feng hurriedly stopped him.
"Don't worry yet! Wait a minute!"
"What are you waiting for! The phoenix egg is right in front of you!" Li Yong said anxiously.
"Second brother, let's listen to the elder brother first! Let's see what the elder brother says and what his plans are." Li An also came to the branch where the two were standing, grabbed Li Yong and said.
"There may be fire phoenixes left near this nest to protect the phoenix eggs. If we rush over recklessly and fall into a trap, we will be in trouble."
"What should we do? The phoenix egg is right in front of us. We finally got here, we can't just let it go!"
"Did I say not to take it? Now we need to find someone to lay down the trap for us. Let's test it out first. We will go over after everything is fine."
"Brother, do you mean to use the boy named Ye?" Li An saw Ye Hong catching up and immediately understood what Li Feng meant.
"That's right! Third brother is still smart."
While the three of them were plotting to wait for Ye Hong, what they didn't realize was that a pair of eyes in the dense leaves were watching their every move.
Soon Ye Hong drove the flying sword to the side of the three people, but Ye Hong did not fall on the branch, but continued to stand on the flying sword.
Asked: "Brother Li Feng, why did you stop?"
"Brother Ye, you are here! We are waiting for you."
"wait for me?"
"Yes! Look, that's the nest of the Fire Phoenix." Li Feng pointed to the platform in the middle of the tree.
Ye Hong followed the direction of Li Feng's finger and looked at the intersection of many branches just above the main trunk of the sycamore tree. Sure enough, there was a vaguely nest-like place with a large space.
"Then what are you waiting for! Brother Li Feng, let's go over quickly and see if there are any treasures inside!"
Li Feng said with a smile: "Isn't this just to wait for Brother Ye! I owe you for your help along the way. We can't keep this treasure to ourselves, right? Since you are here, let's go there together!"
Immediately, the group of people began to move towards the nest, but Li Feng and others obviously slowed down, letting Ye Hong walk in front. Seeing their actions, Ye Hong certainly knew what these people were planning to do.
Ye Hong saw through it without saying anything. He originally planned to enter the Phoenix lair first, so he went along with their wishes.
Of course, Ye Hongchong, who was in the front, didn't dare to go on a rampage and rushed into the lair recklessly. He also carefully observed the surrounding situation, and slowly and tentatively flew forward, always ready to fly away quickly with his flying sword.
Ye Hong stopped when he was only half a step away from the platform. Because he found that there was a layer of transparent protection in front of him, blocking the flying sword and preventing him from taking half a step forward.
From this position, Ye Hong could clearly see the appearance of the platform. The wide platform was empty. There were no treasures, and there was no phoenix egg mentioned by Li Feng and the others. Yehong couldn't help but feel a little confused when he didn't see the phoenix egg.
Ye Hong originally planned to follow Li Feng and the others all the way, letting Feng Shuting follow him invisibly and concealing her aura. When he came to the fire phoenix nest, he directly asked Feng Shuting to take away the phoenix egg secretly.
But he didn't expect that there was no phoenix egg in the nest, so his plan suddenly came to nothing and was meaningless.
"Brother Li Feng! There is a protective layer here, you can't get in, and there doesn't seem to be any treasures on it. What should we do now?"
"Protective layer? Let me take a look."
Li Feng then leaned toward the platform and saw that there was nothing in the lair. When he reached out and touched it, he found that there was indeed a protective layer, which could not be broken even after attacking with a weapon. Seeing this situation, Li Feng and the others were also very confused.
Although Li Yong couldn't get in or step onto the platform, he looked around around the platform and saw nothing.
"Brother! How come there is nothing! Where is the egg?"
Ye Hong pretended to be confused and asked: "Egg? Brother Li Feng, what egg?"
Li Feng knew that there was no need to hide it now, so he explained: "We got news that this fire phoenix had an egg, so we came to the nest to look for the egg. Unexpectedly, there was nothing. It seems that the news we got was not Indeed, I was deceived!
Why! Since there are no phoenix eggs, there is no need to enter the nest. Gone, gone! "
At this moment, Li Yong suddenly shouted: "Brother! Look what that is!"
When several people heard the news, they saw some scattered small red fruits among the branches and leaves above the tree crown. Because the fruits were small and similar in color to the leaves, they couldn't be found unless they looked carefully.
"Wutongzi!"
"The sycamore seeds produced by the main sycamore tree are rare. Second and third brothers, hurry up and pick them!"
Ye Hong didn't know much about the sycamore tree. He only knew that it was the fruit produced by the sycamore tree, or the seeds of the sycamore tree. Ye Hong didn't know the specific effect.
Although I really wanted to pick it, my speed couldn't match the speed of Li Feng and the others in the Nascent Soul stage, so I had to give up picking it.
Li Feng and the others began to carefully search for and pick sycamore seeds around the crown of the tree, while Ye Hong began to study the protective layer around the nest.
"This Fire Phoenix shouldn't have a meaningless protective layer here for no reason! Is there something we can't see inside? Or is there really a treasure?"
Ye Hong thought for a moment and then took out the Frost Sparkling Sword as the sharpest weapon in his hand. Ye Hong planned to see if he could break through the protective layer.
The frost sword swung out and landed on the protective layer. Ye Hong felt that the frost sword in his hand was like tofu and cut through the protective layer easily. Ye Hong thought it was his imagination.
After touching it with his hand, Ye Hong discovered that this was not an illusion, but that the protective layer had really been cut open by him, but the protective layer healed quickly.
Seeing this, Ye Hong hurriedly rushed in with his flying sword. After falling onto the platform, Ye Hong discovered the true appearance of the platform.
This is indeed the Fire Phoenix's lair, but it's not empty in the middle of the platform, but there is an egg.
Just as Ye Hong entered the phoenix lair, Li An, who was picking phoenix seeds outside, suddenly let out a scream, and his whole body was swallowed up by a red figure, and then the figure rushed out of the hole cut by Ye Hong like lightning. Entered the Phoenix Lair.
Ye Hong looked over as soon as he heard the screams. Seeing the figure running towards him, Ye Hong didn't care too much and hurriedly rushed towards it.
The red figure bumped into the frost sword in Ye Hong's hand and stopped. Ye Hong finally saw clearly what was running towards him.
"×, why is it a snake!"
What came into view was a big fiery red snake that was three to five feet long. The front half of its body stood upright, and its flat head was somewhat similar to the shape of the leaves of the sycamore tree. It spit out a long snake message and stared closely at it. Ye Hong held the frost sword in his hand, looking very scared.
"Senior Sister Feng! Hurry up and collect the eggs and hide them! I'll stop this snake."
The fiery red snake seemed to understand Ye Hong's words. Before Ye Hong could react, it rushed directly to the phoenix egg in the center of the platform and swallowed it in one gulp.
Because Feng Shuting was relatively close to the phoenix egg, before she could put the phoenix egg away, she was knocked away by the sudden big snake and fell heavily on the protective layer, revealing her figure.
Fortunately, there was a protective layer, otherwise Feng Shuting would have been directly knocked off the platform by the big snake and fell from the tree.
"Oh! This snake is too fast!"
Ye Hong saw that Feng Shuting was knocked away by the big snake and fell to the ground unconscious. He didn't care about the big snake anymore and hurriedly moved towards Feng Shuting.
Li Feng and Li Yong on the sycamore tree had no idea what was going on. They only heard Li An's scream, and then a red figure fled towards the phoenix nest and disappeared.
"Brother! What was that just now! The third brother seems to be missing!"
"I didn't even see what it was! Where is Ye Hong! He's nowhere to be seen!"
The two of them glanced around and searched around, but could not find Ye Hong or Li An.
Li Yong was so frightened that he shivered, "Brother! There can't be any monsters around here that we can't detect! Could it be that they were eaten by monsters?"
"How could we not notice there was a monster! This place is really weird." Li Feng frowned.
"Brother! Why don't we leave quickly!" Li Yong was extremely scared at this time.
"Let's look for it again. If it doesn't work, we can only leave first. We don't have many ice crystals left. We must maintain our ability to leave the Sycamore Forest smoothly."
Li Feng refused to give up searching for the two of them, mostly because he wanted to find Ye Hong, but the spiritual weapon on Ye Hong was too coveted.
Even if there was nothing gained in the sycamore forest this time and the phoenix egg was not obtained, it would be great to get the spiritual weapon from Ye Hong.
After searching for several times but unable to find the two of them, Li Feng couldn't help but secretly regret that he had missed a good opportunity by not attacking Ye Hong earlier.
Ye Hong in the Phoenix Nest could clearly see Li Feng and Li Feng outside, but they didn't seem to notice Ye Hong and the big snake.
The fiery red snake wanted to escape after swallowing the phoenix egg, but it couldn't get out of the nest. It was bounced back to the nest after hitting the protective layer again and again.
After Ye Hong checked Feng Shuting's condition, he found that she was only injured and fainted, and her life was not in danger. He breathed a sigh of relief, fed her a healing pill, and then turned back to observe the big snake.
Seeing that the phoenix egg had been eaten by the big snake, luckily the big snake couldn't escape, otherwise it would be really difficult for the fire phoenix to come back, and the matter of asking the fire phoenix for help would be over.
Now I can only think of a way to remedy it, kill the big snake, and see if I can still get out the phoenix egg. I just hope that the big snake won't digest it so quickly.
"Hey! Can you understand what I'm saying?" Ye Hong shouted to the big snake.
The big snake couldn't leave despite being hit many times. When it heard Ye Hong's words, it immediately stopped and looked at Ye Hong.
"Can you understand? If you can understand, it will be easy to handle. Just spit out the phoenix egg! Is that something you can eat?"
Seeing that the big snake did not respond to Ye Zi, but rushed towards him directly, Ye Hong hurriedly used the frost sword to block it.
"×! You don't have martial ethics! Can't you discuss things carefully?"
The speed of the big snake is so fast that even Ye Hong, who has the Frost Sparkling Sword in his hand, can't do anything about the big snake. No matter how he attacked, he couldn't hit the big snake. Instead, the big snake beat Ye Hong to the ground again and again.
Although the big snake could attack Ye Hong, it did not dare to swallow Ye Hong directly. It was very afraid of the frost sword in Ye Hong's hand. Every attack was to avoid the sword in Ye Hong's hand.
After a brief fight, Ye Hong also understood that this big snake did have a certain degree of intelligence, but it could not speak human words, indicating that it was not of a high level, but was extremely fast.
For a moment, the big snake couldn't do anything to Ye Hong, and Ye Hong couldn't kill the big snake, which immediately put Ye Hong in trouble.
'If we don't kill this big snake quickly, the phoenix egg will really be digested by this stupid snake! '
Ye Hong kept thinking about how to quickly deal with the big snake, while vigilantly guarding against another sneak attack by the big snake.
