The mass of magma instantly came to life, suddenly unfurling a pair of enormous wings, each tens of meters long.
Fiery ripples meandered across the surface of the wings, with clearly visible flame veins. Every feather seemed to be burning fiercely, as if it were formed from pure flames.
Hot lava dripped continuously from the tip of the feather, falling into the lava pool below and splashing up scalding sparks.
Thick waves of heat swept in one after another, distorting the air with extreme heat, blurring everything in sight.
Li Yu was surprised to discover that the mass in the pool was not lava at all, but a huge bird.
Little Black trembled with fear, staying motionless on the edge of the floating rock, its eyes filled with terror, not daring to move forward at all.
Li Yu was completely shocked and couldn't help but exclaim:
"It's a firebird!"
The Nightmare Beast, which had been silent and feigning death since the dragon vein took shape, suddenly spoke up:
"What firebird? It's just a Kun chicken!"
Looking at the crane-like bird opposite them, the Nightmare Beast, still somewhat proud of its ability to recognize the Firebird, continued speaking to Li Yu:
"Speaking of which, the lifespan of this Kun chicken is only slightly shorter than that of our Nightmare Beasts, which is not bad."
If Nightmare is the most powerful mental weapon, then Kunji is undoubtedly the most lethal.
Even during this long period of heavy rain, which goes against the nature of the season, the Kunji's status remains unshaken.
At this moment, the firebird's deep and fiery eyes looked at Li Yu, its gaze seemingly containing some profound meaning.
In an instant, the dragon horns on Li Yu's brows flashed and disappeared again, and the starlight in his abdomen continued to leap.
Li Yu suddenly realized that the firebird seemed to have been waiting for him all along, and the reason why the boulder was able to float up earlier was also due to the firebird's ability.
As the firebird fully spread its wings, Li Yu finally saw that where the firebird had just covered with its wings, there stood a monument, with a bow as clear as crystal inlaid on it.
Seeing this, the Nightmare Beast in the spiritual sea urged Li Yu urgently:
"Quick, quick, pick up that bow."
For the first time, its tone revealed an undisguised excitement, as if it had seen a chance to change its fate.
Suppressing its excitement, the Nightmare Beast roared wildly in its heart:
'It's a dragon vein inheritance!' It definitely wasn't mistaken.
If Li Yu can successfully obtain the Dragon Vein inheritance and become a legendary Star Lord.
It was even willing to stay in Li Yu's spiritual sea for its entire life, abandoning all that bullshit freedom, and instead follow Li Yu to pursue becoming the greatest one in the entire Nightmare Clan! To fight for endless glory.
Ignoring the anxious Nightmare Beast, Li Yu gently stroked Xiao Hei's mane, soothing the frightened creature before dismounting and heading towards the lava pool.
Upon seeing this, the firebird slightly flapped its wings, and the stone slabs placed on both sides slowly floated over, forming a path over the lava pool.
Li Yu stepped onto the stone path, with lava beneath her feet and scorching air currents constantly blowing past her.
But he showed no sign of backing down and went straight to the firebird.
Under the fiery gaze of the firebird, Li Yu took a deep breath, slowly reached out, and firmly grasped the glass bow in front of the firebird.
He tried to lift it, but the bow didn't budge an inch.
Li Yu was immediately surprised, feeling as if the bow weighed tens of thousands of pounds.
You have to understand, his physical strength is incredibly formidable now, so how could he not even be able to lift a bow?
Only then did Li Yu notice that the lower half of the bow was deeply embedded in the stele, seemingly rooted and integrated with it, and could not be shaken in the slightest by brute force.
The stele also bears some inscriptions in the Central Plains script, seemingly left intentionally for posterity:
"If you can take up this bow, the phoenix will recognize you as its master and take good care of you."
"If you cannot pick it up or draw it, you should leave early and find another weapon, lest you disgrace the title of the Tenth Star Lord."
These characters are bold and powerful, appearing like flames burning under the reflection of the lava.
Li Yu could vaguely discern the pride and confidence of the Tenth Star Lord from these words.
It appears that these words were left by the previous Tenth Star Lord, and whoever picks up this bow will inherit the dragon vein and become the new Tenth Star Lord.
Li Yu could deduce from the inscription that the previous Star Lord seemed to be a bow user as well, and his strength was no weaker than Li Yu's, otherwise he wouldn't have inscribed such domineering words.
Moreover, this firebird seems to belong to the tenth star lord, as it has been guarding this place all along.
"Isn't this a coincidence? I also use a bow."
Li Yu smiled slightly. This bow was just right for her, and she was even more excited about it.
He removed the repeating crossbow from his main equipment slot, stepped forward again, grabbed the glass bow, and concentrated all his energy and mental strength to try again.
[Equipment Successfully]
With a prompt, Li Yu successfully picked up the bow.
In an instant, the glass bow in his hand was ignited.
The sparks in the abdomen seemed to have been successfully connected, and the energy in the cyclone poured into the bow like a flood bursting its banks.
The energy flows along the exquisite patterns on the bow arm, eventually forming a lifelike phoenix perched on the bow.
The raging flames instantly enveloped the bow, burning ever brighter, as if Li Yu had given the bow a new life.
The firelight shone on Li Yu's face, but Li Yu's hands did not feel any burning sensation. Instead, he felt that the flame had a special affinity for him.
The bow, which was originally as heavy as ten thousand pounds, became as light as a cicada's wing in Li Yu's hands.
