Chapter 96: The Nest of a Phoenix (1/2)

Translator: Soldier

However, for some reason, the phoenix was on the verge of extinction in the Mortal Realm.

If someone took advantage of this opportunity, obtained a phoenix egg, hatched it and tamed the phoenix, then they would be able to conquer the world with its power.

Humans were greedy by nature, which was why it was actually not surprising that these people risked coming here scrambling for it.

As regards Yun Wu, she came here because some people were trying to kill her. She didn't even know what kind of place she was in.

However, maybe she was lucky, and maybe she was unlucky, anyway, she accidentally intruded into a nest of a phoenix.

Now, she was facing a dilemma.

Under the circumstances, she didn't have time to think it through, because she saw that those black things on the wall were converging on one spot and stretched towards her bit by bit in mid-air.

The only way out was to dissolve the Phoenix Saliva beneath her feet and then immediately jumped into that deep pit.

Exerting her spiritual power on the fire above her palm, Yun Wu moved it towards the viscous Phoenix Saliva beneath her feet.

In order not to burn her own feet by accident, she was did it with great caution.

However, it was highly strength-consuming and spiritual-power-consuming to manipulate the fire.

After only a short while, Yun Wu started panting for breath, beads of sweat the size of beans dropping down from her forehead, her body in stabbing pain.

She watched as the Phoenix Saliva gradually softened under the heat of the fire and eventually turned into a puddle of water.

Yun Wu withdrew the fire, clenched her teeth and leaped squarely down the pit that diagonally descended.

The moment she leaped down the pit, out of the corner of her eye, she saw that those black things on the wall pounced and landed on her previous position. Rustlings were heard, as if they were gnawing away at the ground...

What were those things exactly?

Yun Wu felt chills down her spine.

If she had been a little slower, would she have been eaten by those things?
