Chapter 159: The Battlefield of Gods and Demons pt. 2
In the end, everyone went down the huge pit. Once they reached the bottom, there was no more wind. Only a thin veil of mist floated on the bones like a sea of clouds. Occasionally, stones scattered among the lush bone plants, which had not weathered after hundreds of millions of years, indicating that the stones were not ordinary things.
Due to the ten-day limit, they could only stay in the pit for half a day, so everyone hurried in search of the patterns on the bone plants, hoping to get a glimpse of the truth about ancient times. However, Jing Yue found that the patterns on the leaves had also changed, either faded until they were barely visible, or new patterns had emerged, at least ones that he had never seen last time.
These patterns might be simple or complex, and most of them couldn’t understand anything, but even a small part was enough to benefit the cultivators a lot.
When Jing Yue passed a clump of bone plants, he saw a leaf in the shape of a phoenix. The outline of the phoenix was blue and it was perched on a fiery red branch.
It was the blue phoenix clan! But Jing Yue hadn't seen it last time. The record he knew about the blue phoenix was found in a collapsed tower in the ruins. But just looking at this picture, he couldn’t find any useful information for the time being and simply wondered what that branch was.
Inside the jade pendant, the blue phoenix said anxiously, “It's the Soul Tree, Jing-jing! It's the Soul Tree! It's the mother tree where our blue phoenix clan lives!”
Jing Yue had never heard of the Soul Tree, which was probably extinct over the years.
The blue phoenix mourned, “The mother tree died tens of billions of years ago. Ji-ji has no home now.”
But it quickly cheered up and said loyally, “But with Jing-jing, Ji-ji will have a new home. Wherever Jing-jing is, Ji-ji's home will be there.”
