Su Yao dragged her weary body toward the safe house, her mind filled with the information she had gleaned from the "Eye of Doomsday" crystal ball. However, when she was still some distance from the safe house, the system suddenly issued an alarm, warning of unusually strong energy fluctuations nearby that could pose a threat to the safe house.
Su Yao immediately changed direction and rushed towards the source of the energy fluctuations. When she arrived, she found a huge ice cocoon, emitting an eerie light, and the surrounding air seemed to be frozen. Something seemed to be struggling inside the ice cocoon, and every movement caused violent fluctuations in the surrounding energy.
Su Yao cautiously approached, and just then, the ice cocoon suddenly burst open, and a huge phoenix engulfed in icy blue flames flew out. The phoenix's eyes were filled with rage and ferocity. It spread its enormous wings, and a gust of cold wind mixed with ice blades swept towards Su Yao.
Su Yao quickly erected her supernatural shield, the ice blades striking it with a crisp clang. She knew this phoenix was difficult to deal with and needed to find its weakness as soon as possible. Su Yao observed that the brightness of the flames would briefly diminish after each wing flap of the phoenix's wings to attack.
Seizing the opportunity, she swiftly charged towards the phoenix after it flapped its wings again. Seeing this, the phoenix lunged at Su Yao with its sharp claws. Su Yao nimbly dodged, simultaneously thrusting a spear with ice-breaking properties from her spatial storage into the phoenix's abdomen. The spear struck the phoenix, but only left a shallow wound. The phoenix, however, grew even more enraged, letting out a high-pitched cry.
After the cry, the temperature around the phoenix plummeted, and Su Yao felt her movements become sluggish. She concentrated, channeling her fire-based powers to combat the cold. The phoenix attacked again, spewing out icy blue flames that surged towards Su Yao like a giant python.
Su Yao formed hand seals, unleashing her powerful water-based abilities to create a water curtain in front of her. The icy blue flames met the water curtain, generating a large amount of steam, instantly enveloping the surrounding area in a white mist. Using the steam as cover, Su Yao quietly circled around to the phoenix's side and attacked again with her spear.
This time, she imbued her fire-based powers into her spear, which pierced the phoenix's wing, causing the phoenix to struggle in agony. Su Yao pressed her advantage, relentlessly attacking the phoenix's wounds with her powers, attempting to weaken it.
After a fierce battle, the phoenix's power gradually weakened, but it still resisted stubbornly. Su Yao realized that to completely defeat the phoenix, she had to attack its core. She searched for the phoenix's core during the battle and discovered a radiant crystal on its forehead, which must be the source of its power.
Su Yao gathered all her supernatural power and charged towards the phoenix's forehead. The phoenix sensed Su Yao's intention and tried its best to stop her. But Su Yao was already reckless; she broke through the phoenix's defenses and fiercely thrust her spear towards the crystal on the phoenix's forehead.
With a deafening roar, the phoenix's body erupted with intense light. After the light faded, the phoenix vanished, leaving behind only a crystal radiating powerful energy. Su Yao picked up the crystal and placed it in her spatial storage. She knew this crystal might be of great help in the fight against the apocalypse.
After resolving the crisis with Phoenix, Su Yao continued her journey towards the safe house. However, along the way, she found that the once familiar roads had become unfamiliar, and the surrounding environment seemed to have been altered by a mysterious force. Su Yao tried to use the system to find her way, but the system was interfered with and could not function properly.
Su Yao could only rely on her memory and intuition to move forward. As she passed through a valley, thick fog filled the air, carrying a faint sense of danger. Su Yao became more vigilant and slowly entered the valley. Suddenly, countless vines, covered in sharp thorns, emerged from the fog and began to coil around Su Yao.
Su Yao used her fire powers to burn away the approaching vines, but the vines only multiplied. She took out a wind blade sword from her spatial storage and slashed the vines. During the battle, Su Yao discovered that the vines were extending from the depths of the valley. She decided to head deeper into the valley to find the source of the vines and completely resolve this problem.
As she ventured deeper into the valley, she discovered a gigantic mutated plant. The plant's main body resembled a giant flower bud, from which the surrounding vines extended. Su Yao knew that defeating this mutated plant would free her from the vines' entanglement.
Su Yao charged towards the mutated plant, which sensed the danger and formed a barrier with its vines. Su Yao used her special ability to break through the barrier and engaged the mutated plant in close combat. She used her wind blade sword to slash at the plant's flower buds, but the buds were extremely hard and difficult to damage.
During the battle, Su Yao discovered some weak points in the roots of the mutated plant. She changed her strategy, using her spatial abilities to move beneath the plant and attack its roots. After some effort, Su Yao successfully destroyed the plant's roots, causing it to wither and the surrounding vines to cease their attack.
Su Yao emerged from the valley and continued towards the safe house. At this moment, the system finally returned to normal. Guided by the system, Su Yao quickened her pace; she couldn't wait to return to the safe house and share the spoils of this adventure with her family.
