Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

Chapter 1628: Fire Phoenix snatches for the fruit

Feng Xiao glanced at those people and saw that the old man was protected by a stream of air similar to a protective barrier that prevented the ghosts from getting close. Whereas the other people were in a crisis, attacking the ghosts that were rushing towards them.

Seeing this, Feng Xiao tossed a flying artifact and flew that way with a sword in his hand. With spirit energy injected into the sword, he slashed at the enemies all the way until he reached over 100 meters high in midair.

After seeing the scene at the valley, he was about to go down. Suddenly, Fire Phoenix spoke out.

“Wait a moment.”

“What’s the matter?” Feng Xiao inquired.

“There is a poisonous fog below. The sacred spirit fruit should be the luminous object in the middle of the poisonous fog. If we go down, it will be difficult for us to escape. Listen to me, we’ll do this…”

Fire Phoenix made a suggestion and told him his plan.

Feng Xiao paused for a moment and then asked, “Are you sure?”

“Don’t worry, I can deal with these small issues.” Fire Phoenix raised its chin and answered him confidently.

“Alright, then.” With this reply, Feng Xiao turned around and headed for the road he wanted to pass. When no one noticed, Fire Phoenix flapped its wings and flew to the bottom of the valley.

Seeing Feng Xiao going in the other direction, everyone except the old man thought that he was afraid to descend. They sneered at him. “I thought he’s a real man with some skills. It seems that he’s nothing special.”

The old man didn’t say anything. He watched Feng Xiao rush out of the ghost array and enter the enchantment mountain. The enchantment mountain in the ghost mountain was covered with enchantment arrays. It was not the place ordinary cultivators could walk away from, especially at night when all kinds of transformations happened inside the formation.

The old man wanted to chase after him to have a look, but he was entangled by the sudden outpouring of ghosts, so he could only step back. About the time it took an incense stick to burn, a fierce roar of a phoenix in the valley. Flame soared to the sky and flew up to the top of the mountain. The raging fire lit up the whole night sky and the flames dispelled the cold air. The frightened people below screamed aloud.

“Hiss! It’s, it’s the ancient sacred beast, Fire Phoenix!”

“Goodness! How can the ancient sacred beast Fire Phoenix appear in this place?”

“Hiss! This Fire Phoenix came to snatch the sacred spirit fruit?”

“How did the ancient Fire Phoenix come out of nowhere? Who is its master?”

“Damn it! What does it want from the sacred spirit fruit? The fruit is of no use to it!”

For a moment, the surprised cries and indignant screams were mixed together. The loose cultivators were incredulous. Although the fruit was a sacred rank spirit fruit and eating one could greatly increase one’s strength, its existence was not in defiance of Nature. Unexpectedly, such a sacred spirit fruit actually attracted an ancient sacred beast to compete for it. Moreover, it directly closed off the surroundings with fire and took the fruit.

Watching Fire Phoenix soaring into the sky as it majestically flapped its wings into midair with a whoosh and disappearing into the night, everyone was dumbfounded.

They had been busy keeping watch for this sacred spirit fruit for more than half of a month, but in the end, a bird had snatched it up right before them.

Alright! Even though this bird was an ancient sacred bird, why did an ancient sacred beast come out to rob them? Who on earth ordered it to do this? It’s simply so hateful!

Only the old man looked despondently at the Fire Phoenix which had disappeared into the dark night. He murmured, “It turns out to be the ancient sacred beast Fire Phoenix. I was truly mistaken… “
