Hearing this, Feng Jiu couldn't help but smile and said, "No need, we can just go with a few of us, you guys go ahead, if we don't find anything, we will follow later."
"But..." Ruan Pingzhi wanted to say something but was interrupted by the ancient city lord.
"Okay, then you guys be careful. You know our direction. If you can't find us over there, come look for us here."
"Okay then! You guys be careful. There are a lot of ferocious beasts in this forest. If you encounter danger, you can send us a signal." Ruan Pingzhi instructed. In his opinion, they were all young people and probably didn't have much experience in such a place, so their ability to respond was naturally not as strong as theirs.
"Okay." Feng Jiu responded with a smile and looked at Du Fan and the others: "Let's go! Let's go take a look first."
"Yes." They responded and stood up.
"Then we'll leave first. If you don't find anything, we'll see you later." Feng Jiu nodded to the ancient city lord and others.
"Be careful." The ancient city lord said, and sat down again after watching them leave.
After they left, Ruan Pingzhi slapped his forehead as if he remembered something and said, "Old Jiang said he was going to find out some news, but he didn't tell us about it! Old Gu, what did you mean by what you said that day? What did you ask Old Jiang to find out?"
The ancient city lord's eyes flickered and he glanced at them: "Don't you know?"
"I don't know!" Everyone shook their heads, waiting for him to say something else, but he said, "Forget it if you don't know. There's nothing much to say."
Suddenly, everyone felt as if their breath was suspended and stuck in their throat, unable to go up or down, which was very uncomfortable.
On the other side, Feng Jiu and the others left for the mountain. On the way, Du Fan asked, "Master, do you think the ancient Qilin beast is on that mountain?"
"There are trees on the surrounding mountains on the map, but there is no grass on that mountain. Maybe it's because of the different geology, or maybe there is magma under the ground. As for whether the ancient Qilin is there, we have to go and see for sure."
Fengjiu spoke slowly, walking at an extremely fast pace, and the people behind her followed closely.
After passing through the woods, they climbed over three mountains before they saw the mountain where no grass grew. They stood on the flying swords and looked down from above.
I saw several mountains entwined and surrounding it, one layer after another, and in the middle, the barren mountain was surrounded in the middle. Not only was there no grass on the mountain, but even a large area around the foot of the mountain was barren.
"Let's go down and take a look." Feng Jiu said as she flew down into the air. She tapped her toes, folded her feathers and landed on the top of the mountain. Standing there, she could feel the heat radiating from below. It was obvious that this place was hotter than other places. Even the dirt was faintly emitting heat. There was not even a single ferocious beast to be seen around.
"A place like this is naturally barren. If I guessed correctly, this magma land should be under this mountain, underground, and the ancient Qilin beast should also be hiding in there."
As Fengjiu spoke, she stared intently at the area beneath her feet. The ancient Qilin beast was right here!
