C715 Vermillion Bird of Nanling
C715 Vermillion Bird of Nanling
They had just walked on the path up, and met the Northern Profound Turtle. According to the North, South, West, and East Divisions, the path down should be the South Spirit Vermillion Bird. The one on the left should be the Western Xuan White Tiger, and the one on the right should be the Eastern Xuan Azure Dragon.
Qin Yun looked at the remaining three crossroads and said after some thought, "Then, let's go take a look at the South Spirit Vermillion Bird."
After saying that, Qin Yun brought Lan Meng down the passageway in large strides.
The Northern Profound Martial Saint's water type path was naturally extremely cold, and the Southern Spirit Vermillion Bird's fire type path was extremely hot.
Not long after they left, a scorching hot aura spread out from the area. Blue Dream might not care much about this freezing cold, but this scorching hot aura immediately made Blue Dream feel extremely uncomfortable.
Qin Yun immediately noticed the changes in Blue Dream. He used the power of the Dragon God to drive the Frost Water Bead and wrapped it with cold air.
Sensing the temperature drop, Blue Dream tightened her grip on Qin Yun's hand and continued walking forward.
The further they went, the higher the temperature became. After walking for a long distance, the two of them arrived in front of a seven-colored Spirit Formation.
With the experience from before, Qin Yun and Lan Meng naturally had nothing to fear. They strode forward and entered the seven-colored barrier.
When the two of them passed through the barrier, they saw a sea of fire in front of them.
However, there were meteors in the sky as sparse rain of fire fell from the sky. Beneath his feet was boiling lava, which was still bubbling.
"Chirp!" With a bird's cry, a huge figure appeared in the air.
That figure was extremely fast. "Swish!" With a sound, it flew above Qin Yun and Blue Dream's heads. After a few laps, it turned back and stopped in front of Qin Yun and Blue Dream.
A huge Fire Bird with a wingspan of nearly sixty meters appeared in front of the two of them. This Fire Bird was a bit larger than the Black Tortoise from before, and its entire body was burning with scarlet flames.
A sharp beak and claws shimmered with cold light as a pair of massive wings flapped gently. The aura exuded from its body was similar to that of the Black Tortoise. Qin Yun knew that the person in front of him was the South Spirit Vermillion Bird.
"Greetings, senior Suzaku." Qin Yun and Blue Dream said extremely respectfully.
"The aura of the Northern Spiritual Xuan Wu. It seems that you have already obtained the recognition of the Xuan Wu." The South Spirit Vermillion Bird looked at Qin Yun with interest before shifting its gaze to Blue Dream.
"Little girl, I seem to have met you before." The South Spirit Vermillion Bird said to Blue Dream with a smile.
"Senior, you've seen me before?" Blue Dream said to the Vermillion Bird.
"When the four spirit illusions were just formed, you already came here and even targeted the Scarlet Fire Spirit Fruit that is completely useless against you." The South Spirit Vermillion Bird said to Blue Dream.
After Blue Dream heard the Vermillion Bird's words, her face reddened.
"At that time, I wanted to remind you, but because it was inconvenient, I didn't appear. Luckily, this boy appeared, or else you would have become a disaster." The Vermillion Bird said to Blue Dream.
"Senior, you know it already." Lan Meng said softly.
"I'm at the place where the four magic arrays were first formed. When you came here, there was only one path, and that was when I was already here." The Vermillion Bird spoke to the two of them.
Qin Yun and Blue Dream looked at each other and smiled helplessly. They never expected that there was a pair of eyes watching them.
"Senior, please excuse me." Qin Yun said to the Vermillion Bird.
"There is nothing to be embarrassed about. To you, there is nothing that the Four Saint Beasts can understand better than me. You are the person we are waiting for." The South Spirit Vermillion Bird said directly to Qin Yun.
"Senior, I'll be troubling you then." Qin Yun said respectfully to the Vermillion Bird.
With a shake of the Vermillion Bird's wings, an enormous scarlet Spiritual Light formed in front of its body. The Spiritual Light suddenly condensed into a pearl the size of a ping pong ball.
After the pearl was formed, it flew towards Qin Yun.
"Swish!" With a sound, it entered Qin Yun's body.
Qin Yun felt a burning sensation on his back. There, he could see the light of the Vermillion Bird's design before it instantly vanished.
"My mission is accomplished, but I have to remind you all that the White Tiger's temper isn't too good. You must be careful when you go find him, and don't anger him." The South Spirit Vermillion Bird warned Qin Yun.
"Thank you for the reminder, Senior." Qin Yun said to the Vermillion Bird.
"You might think that it's very easy now, but once the four spirit illusions are opened, it will become very dangerous. You must be careful when that happens." After the South Spirit Vermillion Bird said this, it flapped its gigantic wings and soared into the sky, heading towards the rain of flames. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from the duo's sight.
"Thank you!" Qin Yun shouted in the direction the South Spirit Vermillion Bird disappeared in.
Afterwards, he turned around and left this world of flames with the two from Blue Dream.
"Swish!" With a sound, Qin Yun and Lan Meng appeared in the cave once again.
When they appeared, the seven-colored barrier behind them disappeared once again, leaving only the bare stone wall behind.
"If we had known earlier, we would have been like this. Let's go, let's find the next holy beast." Qin Yun faced the blue dream path and followed the same route back to the fork in the road.
Now there were only two crossroads left, one to the left and one to the right. The one on the left was the White Tiger of the West Xuan, and the one on the right was the Azure Dragon of the East Xuan King.
"Just now, Senior Vermillion Bird told us that Senior White Tiger's temper isn't good. Should we go first or later?" Lan Meng looked around and said with some embarrassment.
Qin Yun frowned and ruminated for a moment before saying, "Let's go find the Eastern Xuan Azure Dragon first. We are all dragons, so it would be easier to talk. Besides, I have the imprints and acknowledgments of the other three holy beasts."
After speaking, the two of them walked back to the place where the Azure Dragon Dongxuan was located.
The Dongxuan Azure Dragon was wood, so the cave that led to the Dongxuan Azure Dragon was filled with surging natural power. Coupled with the fact that Qin Yun and Blue Dream were from the dragon race, this aura made the two of them extremely comfortable.
The time for happiness and comfort was always short, and before long, the two of them arrived in front of a barrier that flickered with rainbow-colored spiritual light.
"I believe this is where the Azure Dragon of the East is located at." Qin Yun said to Blue Dream with a smile.
"Yes." Blue Dream nodded. Azure Dragon could be said to be a legendary existence among Chinese Dragons.
"Swish!" With a "clang" sound, the two of them simultaneously submerged themselves into the barrier that flickered with rainbow-colored light.
After passing through the barrier, the first thing that entered Qin Yun and Lan Meng's eyes was a dense forest. The forest was shrouded in clouds and mist. The air was light and humid, giving Qin Yun and Lan Meng a refreshing feeling.
