Chapter 772 The Green Phoenix and the Thunderbolt Trial

Although the man in black doesn’t know what is wrong with Meng Jing now, he can feel that a strong power is moving restlessly in her body.

“Meng Jing, what’s wrong?” The man in black feels a bit anxious and hastens to ask.

However, Meng Jing just turns a deaf ear to him.

The man in black realizes that something is wrong. He hastens to run towards Meng Jing but when he takes two steps forward, Meng Jing has rushed into Immortal Burying Valley quickly.

The man in black is greatly shocked.

He didn’t expect this to happen.

He is clear that if anything untoward happens to Meng Jing in Immortal Burying Valley, he will be gravely sinful.

Then, he quickly dashes forward but he is bounced back by a streak of green light. When he raises his head and looks ahead, he finds that Meng Jing has run tens of meters away and gone deeper into the valley.

He shouts at the mouth of Immortal Burying Valley but he doesn’t get any response.

He realizes that something is wrong but he doesn’t know what it is.

He has never heard of this before!

It can only indicate that what is happening to Meng Jing now is attributed to her involvement in the Ghost Sect.

He thinks it over and stamps his feet. Eventually, he still goes into Immortal Burying Valley with Meng Jing.

Even if he knows it is extremely dangerous in Immortal Burying Valley, he has no other choice now.

In his opinion, as long as he is still alive, Meng Jing cannot die.

This is one of his missions.

After entering Immortal Burying Valley, the man in black immediately notices that he is not feeling well.

There seems to be a power suppressing his strength.

This is definitely not good news.

More uncomfortably, he feels as if someone is staring at him from behind firmly.

However, when he turns around and looks behind, he sees nothing.

Nothing is there.

He can hear the chirps that sound like baby cries in the distance, which are shrill and frigid. When gusts of Yin wind blow by, the grass and trees rustle accordingly, as if snakes slithered across spookily.

He raises his head and sees no moonlight but the thunderclouds above his head.

He looks around but doesn’t find Meng Jing, which makes him even more fretful.

Suddenly, he hears an explosive sound in the distance. It is as deafening as the collapse of Mount Tai. He is gravely shocked and accelerates his footsteps.

Luckily, the noise in Immortal Burying Valley won’t get out. The people of the Ghost Sect won’t find it either, which is the best out of the worst.

Suddenly, he sees a streak of dazzling green light rushing to the sky. Another black light pillar rises to the sky. The two light pillars, just like two agile pythons, intertwine and bite each other.

“What’s that?” The man in black is dumbfounded. He vaguely recalls that when he tried to stop Meng Jing before, he was stopped by the green light. Does the green light have anything to do with Meng Jing?

He walks faster forward.

After walking for 20 minutes or so, he finally stops and gives an astonished look on his face.

He raises his head and looks at Meng Jing standing on a rock as high as tens of meters of Immortal Burying Valley and looking up at the sky. Following her gaze, he sees a green phoenix is hovering above the sky and makes a melodious chirp. Meanwhile, a black light pillar is sucked by the phoenix bit by bit.

“That is...” He stays silent for a moment and suddenly realizes something. His pupils shrink and his fists clench, “Is it sucking the Qi of Ghost Emperor? Yes, it must be! So, is the green phoenix the thing in her body?”

After a while, he smiles bitterly and shakes his head.

“No wonder the Ghost Sect thinks highly of her. Even if they think that she is a spy of the Dragon Court, they can’t bear to kill her at will. Yet, they are still shooting themselves in the foot! Meng Jing has got such a great lucky chance. Can they bear the consequences?”

The process of the green phoenix devouring the Qi of the Ghost Emperor lasts for an hour more or less, which indicates that the Qi left by the Ghost Emperor must be very powerful. When the devouring is over, thunderclouds roll above Immortal Burying Valley again.

“Oh no...” The man in black suddenly comes to his senses. He stares at the thunderclouds in the sky and mutters, “The green phoenix has devoured the Qi of the Ghost Emperor. As a result, the thunderbolt trial will go to her. Yet, can the green phoenix persist through the thunderbolt trial?”

The last thunderbolt that should have landed on the Ghost Emperor is still brewing.

The green phoenix also seems to know that it has nowhere to hide so it directly continues hovering in the sky, waiting for the thunderbolt trial to come.

Given its capability, it is very likely for the green phoenix to get through the thunderbolt trial.

However, if it hides in Meng Jing, she cannot get through the thunderbolt for sure.

Therefore, it can only take a chance.

...

In a house of the Ghost Sect.

An old man with grey hair and a ruddy complexion suddenly opens his eyes.

His face is etched with astonishment and bewilderment. He quickly stands up and forces his way out. The two disciples of the Ghost Sect guarding outside are shocked.

“Sovereign, what’s wrong?”

The man stands at the door and stares in the direction of Immortal Burying Valley, the corners of his mouth slightly twitching.

“How is it possible... The Ghost Emperor’s Qi has disappeared? How is it possible?”

After saying that, he quickly rushes towards Immortal Burying Valley.

Meanwhile, in the sand fort, countless ghosts are horrified.

“Thunderbolt...”

“A thunderbolt trial is coming!”

Every ghost is in horror.

No one knows where the thunderbolt they’ve sensed will land.

If the thunderbolt lands here, apart from the three superior Ghost Emperors, all the other ghosts...

They will all be destroyed!

Finally, here comes an explosive sound.

A thunderbolt that is as thick as the vat mouth drops from the thunderclouds like a sharp sword into the ground.

The green phoenix, still shrieking, rushes towards the thunderbolt.

Green lights and thunder lights are interwoven.

Instantly, the whole Immortal Burying Valley is as bright as daytime.

With his clothes billowing, the man in black retreats staggeringly and then spits out a mouthful of blood.

“What terrifying thunder coercion...” The man in black shakes his head.

However, as an onlooker, he has been so seriously impacted from such a long distance.

He would be killed immediately if he got any closer, let alone get through the thunderbolt trial.

On the contrary, the green phoenix is still hovering proudly as if an unyielding warrior were trying his best to fight against the thunderbolt...

Finally, as the green phoenix shrieks, the thunderbolt suddenly vanishes. Meanwhile, the green phoenix also turns into a streak of green light and goes into Meng Jing’s body.

Meng Jing goes limp and lies on the rock. The man in black quickly climbs upward.

“Those old guys must have sensed the noises here. We must get out of here...” The man in black climbs on the rock wall like a gecko.
