"Phoenix, you are mine!"
In the lava, Lie Yuntao raised his head and laughed.
Then, he climbed up the rock wall, then turned back, looked at Mu Ningning and the others, and sneered.
"Mu Ningning, keep chasing. Can you catch me? You idiot!"
"After I get the Phoenix, the first people I kill will be you and Ji Xingchen, hahahaha!"
After laughing wildly, Lie Yuntao didn't waste any time and walked into the cave.
"Lie Yun Tao!"
Mu Ningning stared at Lie Yuntao's back. If eyes could kill, Lie Yuntao would have died eight hundred times.
The rest of the people also started talking about it.
"I really let him pass."
"Extreme Fire + Phoenix, this combination is simply terrifying."
"Why are you panicking? Phoenix hasn't appeared for many years. It might be the same as Lu Chen's Xuanwu. His cultivation has plummeted. His strength at the early stage of the Heavenly Master Realm is nothing to worry about."
"No matter what, it's still a phoenix..."
"I don't know if there is a third level. If there is, I will definitely win the first place."
But at this moment, an angry roar came from the cave opposite.
"Where's the Phoenix? Where's my Phoenix??"
I saw Lie Yuntao running out of the cave. He was holding a piece of paper in his hand. The paper said - you are late, the Phoenix has already claimed its master.
"Du Ziren, get the fuck out of here!"
Lie Yuntao roared at the cave from the previous round.
"Hey...you dare to scold me. You are quite crazy."
Along with a lazy voice, a terrifying energy blasted out from the tunnel and shot straight towards Lie Yuntao.
Lie Yuntao was shocked and turned pale, and clapped his hands forward while making a quick gesture.
boom!
With a loud noise, Lieyuntao crashed into the cave like a kite with its string broken.
After a full hundred breaths passed, Lie Yuntao walked out again.
But at this moment, his hair was disheveled and he was very embarrassed, and his arms were drooped, as if they had been broken.
"Senior Du Ziren, didn't you say that the first person to arrive here will get the mythical beast Phoenix?"
"But I am obviously the first, why does it say that Phoenix has recognized its master?"
Lie Yuntao asked the question humbly, without any of the arrogance he had just now.
Du Ziren walked out of the tunnel. He looked at Lie Yuntao with a smile and said sarcastically: "A bunch of idiots who haven't even understood the true meaning of this level still want to become the masters of the Phoenix?"
"The test of this level is not about who can pass first."
"What!?"
Lie Yuntao's expression changed drastically.
He had paid so much and worked so hard to get out of the magma, and even offended Mu Ningning for it.
But now, Du Ziren told him that the test was not about who came first.
It felt like he had spent most of his net worth and finally married a stunning beauty and brought him home, but during the wedding night, the woman told him that she was a man.
Isn't this a joke?
Mu Ningning and the others were also dumbfounded. The content of the assessment was just mentioned by Du Ziren himself. Why did it suddenly change?
Lie Yuntao was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and asked in grief: "Du Ziren, as the examiner of this level, how can you lie?"
Du Ziren said coldly: "Idiot, didn't I just say that? I only care about things in the tunnel. Things outside the tunnel have nothing to do with me."
Everyone was startled.
They recalled it, and it seemed that this was really the case.
When they first escaped, Du Ziren also followed them out. They were very scared at the time, but Du Ziren said: "My mission is just to kill you in the tunnel. Now that we are out of the tunnel, I can't control you."
At that time, they were a little lucky that they didn't have to face Du Ziren.
Unexpectedly, I was severely cheated in the end.
Mu Ningning turned around, cupped his fists and asked, "How dare I ask Senior Du Ziren, where is the real Phoenix?"
"Why should I tell you?"
Du Ziren's words made Mu Ningning speechless. Yes, Du Ziren was not the examiner of this level, and there was really no reason to tell her how to pass it.
She turned around in disappointment and scanned the surrounding rock walls, trying to find if there was any other exit here.
"What a stupid guy. You have to give some benefits when asking for help from others, let alone asking for help from ghosts?"
A slightly mocking voice came from Du Ziren's mouth.
"benefit?"
Mu Ningning was stunned for a moment, then turned around quickly and asked: "Senior, what benefits do you want?"
Du Ziren held his chin and said, "There are already many people who have never eaten the soul of a living person."
"Let's do this. You bid for it. Whoever gives me a longer lifespan will be told how to pass the level."
"Starting price, one hundred years."
"let's start."
After Du Ziren finished speaking, he moved a chair and sat down on the edge of the lava.
Everyone was stunned, and when they realized what Du Ziren meant, they all looked at each other in confusion.
Bid with your lifespan!
As expected of a ghost, this idea is truly incredible.
Warlock does not represent immortality.
Life span also has an end.
In this world, there are very few panaceas that can increase lifespan. Only when you break through the realm can you increase your lifespan.
In addition, many sects require secret techniques that require sacrifice of life, so everyone is hesitant at this moment.
One hundred years!
That's not a small number.
But Mu Ningning was determined to win the Phoenix, and she made an offer without hesitation: "I'll pay for a hundred years!"
After saying that, she looked around and gritted her teeth and said: "Phoenix, I am bound to win it!! Please give me some respect and don't participate in the bidding."
"For this matter, I owe you a favor. After you go out, if you need anything, you can come to Kunlun Immortal Palace to find me."
After hearing what she said, the other warlocks stopped talking.
Because they can feel that no matter how much the bid is, Mu Ningning will definitely follow.
The only one who laughs in the end will be Du Ziren.
Du Ziren had killed many of their friends in the tunnel just now. Instead of making him happy, it was better to betray Mu Ningning to save face.
But there is one exception.
"I'll be here for one hundred and twenty years!"
It was Lie Yuntao who shouted. The phoenix has a fatal attraction for a warlock like him who has understood the fire of the extreme realm.
What's more, he had just threatened to kill Mu Ningning and Ji Xingchen. If Mu Ningning got the Phoenix, he would be the one who died immediately.
"Okay, okay, competition is fun, little girl, do you want to increase the price?"
Du Ziren looked at Mu Ningning with a smile.
Mu Ningning clenched her pink fist, glared at Lie Yuntao fiercely, and then increased the price: "I will pay for one hundred and fifty years."
"Lie Yuntao, if we continue to fight, it will only benefit him. Just give up. I promise not to hold you accountable for what happened before."
"It's a joke. The mythical beast comes first. Those who are destined to get it will get it. Why don't you give up?"
"One hundred and sixty years!"
