Chapter 359 The Death of the Cuckoo Bird

“..They speculated that the man might not have been able to resist the temptation of those top-notch rare items that grew inside the forbidden volcano, and took the risk to go deep and pick them.

 As a result, we caught up with the volcanic magma explosion and missed the best opportunity to evacuate.”

Yin Muqing pursed her lips tightly, her expression full of complexity.

Even though Ling Yu repeatedly emphasized the authenticity and accuracy of the news, she still couldn't completely believe that the man with three heads and six arms, who was as powerful as a demon, died so easily in a volcanic eruption.

“.. Casualties during secret realm exploration are normal. Hidden Star’s character is usually inconsistent with his strength and is relatively fragile and unstable.

 Similar things have not happened before. "

Ling Yu sighed softly and said regretfully: "It's a pity. If this person had not died and participated in this operation, our Xia country would be more certain of winning the Phoenix Egg.

The Far Star Federation has completely lost their dignity, and they still want to use the Ice God.

 Although this idea has been blocked by the federation, it is said that it is still making repeated applications, and even plans to unilaterally tear up the agreement regardless of it.”

Yin Muqing said nothing and looked around with complicated eyes.

She and Ling Yu were currently located somewhere on the edge of the deep fog zone. Ten kilometers ahead, there was a raging sea of ​​fire that was gradually spreading.

Within the sea of ​​fire, dark red magma flows freely. Looking down from a high place, it is as if the secret realm of Ember Mountain is slowly peeling off its green fur, revealing the red and black flesh underneath.

Perhaps this is the original appearance of Ember Mountain.

Yin Muqing had such an idea in her mind.

At the edge of the forest where the flames spread, a large number of phoenix blood descendants stood.

These long-haired, red-skinned, unusual-looking natives are kneeling on the ground.

 Led by people who were similar to elders in the tribe, they kowtowed in the direction of the flames and murmured something in their mouths.

 The flames and lava passed over them, burning their flesh, but they did not choose to dodge. There was no trace of pain on their faces, but a look of enjoyment.

 The posture is extremely pious, as if this is some kind of supreme honor for them.

There are several action teams like Yin Muqing and others in this area, but no one pays attention to these phoenix natives.

Everyone was waiting quietly, paying attention to the messages and instructions conveyed on the communicator.

This is a joint deployment of the "Hunting Legend" operation. If the third hunting plan goes well enough, the suspected phoenix creature carrying the phoenix egg will most likely pass by this location.

 What they have to do is to try their best to block the phoenix eggs when they arrive. Even if they cannot stop them, they must drive them in the predetermined direction and form a siege.

 It's like a bag, and these people are part of it.

After waiting for a while, the magma and flames were almost at the feet of Yin Muqing and others.

At this moment, Ling Yu suddenly said urgently: "Here we come, get ready!"

Yin Muqing looked solemn and quickly pulled out the alloy sword from her waist.

Not long after, she felt an extremely rich legendary aura and dozens of powerful energy fluctuations rising in front of her, and she rushed towards this direction quickly.

The melodious chirping of birds from Qingyue came from afar, and a huge orange-red bird with extremely gorgeous and elegant posture appeared in Yin Muqing's field of vision.

The big bird held a snow-white giant egg in its arms, and there were more than a dozen figures following closely behind it.

 “Do it!”

Ling Yu shouted low, and Yin Muqing didn't have time to think. She directly slashed out at the big orange bird that was approaching quickly with her backhand.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣

Dozens of attacks instantly erupted in this area, all with the same goal.

Also when they were taking action collectively, the Phoenix blood descendants below who were kneeling at the edge of the lava flames suddenly shouted loudly.

Everyone was excited, shouting and launching an attack on Yin Muqing and others, as if they were not afraid of death and would defend to the death.

Ling Yu casually slashed downwards with his sword, directly cutting several phoenix blood descendant natives who rushed close into two pieces.

Looking at the dark figure emerging from the ashes of his body, Ling Yu frowned and snorted: "If I had known better, I should have cleared the place directly."

Of course it would be meaningless to discuss this at this time.

 Fortunately, although the sudden rise of the phoenix blood descendants was surprising, their strength was generally low, and they were completely incompetent in front of the members of the exploration team who were qualified to participate in the hunt, and they only caused a slight commotion.

The offensive responsible for encircling everyone worked, and the big orange bird holding the phoenix egg was blocked.

Ling Yu and several outstanding men rushed forward. After several rounds of attacks, the gorgeous orange bird exploded with a "boom"!

In the golden-red light rain that spread all over the sky, an orange shadow emerged.

The coo-coo bird with the crown on its head grabbed a phoenix egg that was estimated to be dozens of times larger than it. It flapped its wings very quickly and turned into a stream of white light, trying to rush out of the encirclement.

 “Stop it!”

Seeing that the suspected phoenix creature that had been chased and intercepted several times finally showed its true form at this moment, everyone involved in the hunt was in high spirits.

Yin Muqing also took action.

She had an impression of this bird. It was this coo-coo bird that had a phoenix feather in its beak and made a lot of people, including her, spin around.

 then

Yin Muqing couldn't help but think of the demon sword named Lu Yuan. It was because of this mysterious cuckoo bird that everyone saw his true strength.

With one enemy against many, he defeated the fierce saber Matisse, armed with life and death, and became famous like a comet rising rapidly in a secret realm.

 I didn’t expect how long it had just passed, and things had changed and people had changed.

Yin Muqing sighed softly in her heart. She didn't know why she had so many emotions and sighs in her heart.

More than a dozen figures chasing the phoenix egg also arrived quickly, and the Cuckoo bird, which was clutching the phoenix egg, fell into a circle of people.

However, I don’t know the origin of this palm-sized bird. It is extremely fast. Dozens of the weakest and third-level strong men surrounded it, but no one could touch its body.

 All attacks were avoided by it. At this moment, their encirclement was about to be penetrated by the cuckoo bird.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣

A sound like rolling thunder bursting through the air suddenly sounded.

 Then the second and third tracks

Yin Muqing raised her eyes and saw dozens of figures coming from all directions.

The aura exuding from each figure is like a dragon, soaring straight into the sky.

 Among them, there are no less than seven or eight Guangqiong-level mechas, and almost all of the rest are familiar to Yin Muqing and are well-known strong men.

Yang Nan, whom Ling Yu mentioned before, is among them.

With dozens of strong men from all forces entering the scene, the originally loose encirclement instantly became as solid as an iron barrel.

As soon as the five Sky-class mechas of the Far Star Federation entered the scene, they immediately fired a large number of deep yellow beams.

These beams of light intertwined with each other and instantly formed a dark yellow super force field, which directly enveloped the Cuckoo bird holding the Phoenix egg.

　　The Cuckoo bird in the force field was affected, and its originally flexible body suddenly became much sluggish.

At this time, more than a dozen supernova and transformation powerhouses headed by Orisha took action at the same time, and the terrifying energy offensive quickly covered the Cuckoo Bird like a big net.

Yin Muqing saw the coo-coo bird flying left and hitting again, continuously coo-cooing in a hurry, but she couldn't find the breakthrough it wanted.

 When the intensive offensive came down, the Cuckoo bird barely dodged twice, and finally had no choice but to hit an energy beam.

It exploded on the spot with a "bang" and exploded into a small cloud of blood.

Yin Muqing saw a few broken orange feathers floating in front of her eyes. She felt a little uncomfortable for no reason, and her mood became even lower.

 She silently put away the alloy sword in her hand, and for a moment she lost all desire to take action.

Once the cuckoo dies, all that's left is the solitary white giant egg.

The eyes of everyone in the venue suddenly became intense.

 Phoenix eggs!

 The legendary phoenix egg!

 It is very likely that the real phoenix will be hatched from it, the name of immortality, and the secret of eternal life.

 Thoughts passed through everyone's minds, and the atmosphere became subtle.

 But at this moment, in full view of everyone, the phoenix egg without any support suddenly started to move on its own.

 And it is extremely fast, even faster than the previous Cuckoo bird.

In just an instant, he directly penetrated the super force field released by the five sky-class mechas, and rushed out of the encirclement with a "swish".

Then

He flew straight towards Yin Muqing, who was at the outermost edge of the encirclement, and jumped into her arms.

"Well"

This series of changes happened so fast that no one in the room could react.

 Including Yin Muqing.

Yin Muqing stood there in a daze, holding a giant egg that was almost half the size of her body. She was stunned by this unexpected change.

until

Ling Yu's loud shout woke her up from her daze.

 “Let’s go!”

Yin Muqing woke up from a dream. The moment her mind returned, she saw at least twenty attacks flying straight towards her.

Each attack was enough to kill her, who was only at level 3, more than ten times.

Without any time to think, Yin Muqing exploded with all her strength in an instant, and rushed out in a random direction.

 “Boom!”

A huge explosion sounded behind her, and the aftermath of the terrifying energy caused pain all over her back, as if even the suit on her body was torn to pieces.

"snort!"

Yin Muqing heard the sound of someone snorting coldly, followed by the roar of the mecha's super engine and the violent collision.

 The mental power conveyed to her what was happening behind her.

She saw that all the forces belonging to the Yellow Bear of the Xia Kingdom were rising. Yang Nan, Ling Yu, and two Cangqiong-class mechas belonging to the Xia Kingdom were frantically blocking other forces who were trying to kill and intercept her. .

But the strength of the coalition forces headed by the Far Star Federation is too strong.

There is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and Xia Guo's defense line was torn apart in almost a few breaths.

Yin Muqing saw Oresha, who was wearing Cangqiong armor, with two golden steel wings spread out behind his back, and his eyes were cold and murderous, chasing her quickly with several Cangqiong-class mechas.

 Just in the blink of an eye, the distance between them was shortened.

Yin Muqing's heart was beating wildly, she was in deep panic, and the shadow of helplessness and death enveloped her.

 She had no idea what to do.

 She didn’t even know why the phoenix egg suddenly jumped into her arms.

She wanted to throw the phoenix egg away, but found that the phoenix egg in her arms suddenly exerted a strong suction force, and her whole body was firmly attached to it.

Then

 “Boom!”

The huge phoenix egg led Yin Muqing around a corner and "ran like crazy" towards the depths of the secret realm!

Yin Muqing was completely carried away by the egg, her head was buzzing and a ball of mush.

She heard the unexplained shouts of the Phoenix blood descendants below her, and then one by one the Phoenix blood descendants rushed into the sky, fearlessly blocking the pursuers behind her.
