Chapter 156: Two Phoenix
Chapter 156: Two Phoenix
Soon, the two phoenix sisters pass through the tunnel and the bridge. Along the way, they could find a trace of Angus and Jayna, with a mysterious beast that managed to dismantle all the hidden traps.
"What kind of creature could do this?" said the green-colored sister.
"I am not sure. But, judging from the aura lingering nearby, it is not a strong one. Besides, there is a trace of the civilized race here. It's probably one of their familiar." replied the blue-colored sister while examining Angus and Jayna's trace.
"Sister, it seems they managed to pass through the Absolute Blue tunnel." said the green one as she followed the trace.
"Since the Absolute Blue is still here, it means the eldest sister is still trapped there. Careful sister, we may need to fight against her again." said the blue one.
"Don't worry. The eldest sister is sealed for a long time. She is not a match against us." said the green one proudly.
Then, the two sisters flash their medallion into the wall. The Absolute Blue water recedes at a fast rate before completely gone.
While waiting for the Absolute Blue to go, they are becoming cautious and ready to battle anytime. After a moment of waiting, there was still no reaction along the tunnel.
"Sister, why is the eldest sister not coming out? Did she wait for us to come?" asked the green one.
"No way, the eldest sister's hatred and grudge against us are so deep. She will definitely come to us the moment she feels our presence. Let's check it." said the blue one.
Both of the sisters enter the dry tunnel and arrive at the painting cave. As soon as the door is open, both of them immediately enter the lava pool cave but only to find an empty husk of mummified corpse in the coffin.
"She is gone!!" said the two sisters.
They couldn't find any trace of their eldest sister, who was supposed to be trapped here.
"Damn it, she also managed to change the vessel." said the blue one after looking at the corpse inside the coffin.
"Sister, there is a trace of people in here not too long ago. But, their trace suddenly disappeared." said the green one after looking around.
"It seems they somehow managed to escape along with the eldest sister. This is inside the beast's territory. It will be easy to search for them among the other beasts." said the blue one.
"Alright, let's go. We can't let that bitch escape!!" said the green one.
Then, both of them turn into green phoenix and blue phoenix before flying towards the outside using the tunnel. Their speed is very fast. As the legendary bird, they could pass a hundred kilometers in a matter of a few seconds.
Arriving at the cave entrance, both of them immediately scatter in different ways while emitting their aura. All the lower nearby beasts couldn't help but be afraid and choose to hide from the two legendary birds.
At this moment, Ian is already at his limit and already uses all his life-saving rune magic to fight against the fire lion cub.
Although they are still cubs, they are already graded two beasts. Now, he is in front of the seventh-grade lion who will give him a verdict about his life.
Just as the seventh-grade fire lion wanted to end his life, the fire lion looked in the other direction, "Damn, bird. Dare to create havoc!!" *ROAR*
The fire lion disappears from its spot and appears a few kilometers away in front of the green phoenix.
"Green Goose, what is the meaning of this?" said the Fire Lion.
Looking at the fire lion in front of her, she stopped in the middle of the air, "Nean Lion, I am looking for a civilized race. Do you see any of them?" asked Green Goose.
"What if I see them?" replied the Fire Lion.
"They managed to break our eldest sister's prison. I suspect she possesses them." replied the Green Goose.
'Eldest sister? Is there another phoenix?' thought the Nean Lion inwardly.
"So?? This is not a territory you should trespass. Besides, you weak birdy beast already banished from here a long time ago." said the Nean Lion.
"Y-You… Nean Lion, this is a very urgent situation. If we are too late..." said Green Goose.
Before she finished her sentence, "What will happen? Was your eldest sister stronger than me?? Kukuku… A little birdy like should run before I completely burn you down. Now, Scram!!" said Nean Lion.
"You!! You asked for this!!" said the Green Goose before turning into a bigger green-colored bird.
Looking at this, the Nean Lion also became bigger at once. Soon, both of them clash with the others and burn the surrounding area.
"Kakaka.. I hear you are impervious to fire. Let's see if my fire could burn you down." said the Nean Lion while shooting a contracted fireblast.
The Green Goose also does not want to lose and counters it with her green-colored fireblast. Both of the fireblasts clash and create a tremor even up to a hundred kilometers away.
All the nearby beasts that didn't manage to escape immediately got scorched and burned alive. At the same time, in the opposite direction, the blue-colored phoenix found Millie and Mia along with the black-robed man at the outskirts of the beast territory.
Landing on the ground, seeing that her eldest sister is not in one of the two girls, "You there, did you know any other civilian race in here besides you?"
Hearing this, Millie immediately thought, 'Other civilian races, don't tell me, is it the others?' thought Millie.
Looking at Millie's face, 'She knows something.' thought the blue-colored woman.
Then, as she steps forward to approach Millie, the black-robed man stood up from the ground.
'Who is he? I couldn't feel him until he moved.' thought the blue color woman.
"Take a step forward, and you will regret it." said the black-robed man inside the woman's head.
"Who are you? This is none of your business." said the woman as she flared up her fire mana.
"Kukuku… a mere bird is trying to fight me. Little girl, I will demonstrate to you the true power of the soul." said the black-robed man.
At this moment, the blue phoenix already launched a strike towards the black-robed man. However, before the strike managed to hit the man, a long black scythe parried it and pushed her back. Looking at this, the blue phoenix turns into a giant blue-colored phoenix.
Her blue fire is burning yet also freezing at the same time. It is one of the mystical flames in the world. Green flames represent nature's vitality. Fire flames represent destruction. Then blue flames represent power.
Among the three phoenixes, the blue phoenix has the most mystical and most potent fire properties. If it is not her eldest sister who is a monstrous entity itself, she will be hailed as the strongest phoenix.
Looking at the blue fire, "Hoo… such amazing mastery of fire. It could also burn and freeze at the same time. Yet you are nothing in front of the power of the soul." said the black-robed man.
Hearing this, the blue phoenix shot a huge blue fireblast towards the man. At this moment, the man raised his wrinkled finger and shot a black light from his finger [Finger of Death]. *Buss* The black light shot through the blue fireball and hit the blue phoenix.
Getting hit by the black light, the blue phoenix feels her body erode at a faster rate despite her enormous regeneration ability. Soon, she fell on the ground and turned into blue-colored ash. Suddenly, the blue-colored ash burned up and turned back into a blue phoenix.
'Who is this guy? How could he kill me so easily? It's better to get away now.' thought the blue phoenix before flying away without saying anything.
"Hoo.. So, this is the reincarnation ability of phoenix.. Hmm… Why so hurry?" said the robed man before flying in the air.
Suddenly, his black cloak spread in the sky like the darkness of night [Death Shroud]. *Bang* The blue phoenix immediately stopped in the middle of the air.
She feels like being entrapped by a strong cage all over her body. The black-robed man approached the entrapped phoenix slowly.
Looking at the approaching man, the blue phoenix has a bad feeling. A feeling that she has been long forgotten arises once more.
"Tell me, O mighty phoenix. Did you fear death?!" said the man.
"No, stay away from me!! Go away!!" scream the blue phoenix.
"Don't worry. In the face of death, everything is the same. [Death Touch]" said the man while he touched the blue phoenix with his wrinkled finger.
The blue phoenix once again becomes ash and leaves a blue-colored ball. Then, the black-robed man grabs the blue ball and goes in Millie's direction. The surrounding darkness changed back to the cloudy weather light before.
"Now, where are we? Ah yes, helping your friend." said the black-robed man towards Millie.
