Chapter 439
But unexpectedly,
because of the pain in his eyes, Qin Feng subconsciously covered them,
which made them all think that Qin Feng's eyes had been injured.
But in fact, after an examination, Qin Feng's eyes had not suffered any damage.
And Qin Feng himself, although his eyes were burning with pain, could see perfectly normally.
There was no damage to his eyeballs, nor were there any traces of burns.
It looked as if nothing had happened at all.
"How are you? What happened? Were you attacked?"
Qin Feng's reaction made them subconsciously think that Qin Feng had been subjected to some kind of attack.
But in fact, it was not an attack.
It was a backlash from being unable to withstand the power.
"I wasn't attacked," Qin Feng said as he sat up from the ground.
His head was still buzzing.
It felt as if it had been slammed by something.
At the very least, the symptoms were similar to a moderate concussion.
"You should all know about things like bloodline talents."
"Coincidentally, I have one."
"My bloodline talent is called the Eye of Truth."
"It can see through all falsehoods and see the truest state of things."
"But because this bloodline talent is actually very powerful in certain aspects,"
"with my current strength, I have no way to control it."
"I can only use it very briefly and at low frequency."
"I just used the Eye of Truth to look at this mountain."
"Because the power within this mountain is too vast,"
"while I was using the Eye of Truth to see through it, I was also backlashed by its immense power."
"My current situation is that I won't be able to use the Eye of Truth again for a short time."
"But apart from the burning pain in my eyes and a splitting headache, I haven't suffered any substantial damage."
"It won't affect my actions."
Qin Feng did not intend to hide the existence of the Eye of Truth.
Later, whether it was in the Kaiyuan Secret Realm or in the ancient ruins,
or even in the subsequent Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield,
it might actually be used.
And these people were mostly those who would participate in these ruin explorations with him,
or those who were executing the plan.
If he had to avoid his teammates every time he used it,
that would be too troublesome.
Besides, Lin An already knew.
It was the same old saying:
As long as one person other than yourself knows, the secret is no longer a secret.
There wasn't that much need to keep it secret.
"As long as you're okay."
Hearing that Qin Feng was fine, they set their minds at ease.
Compared to exploring the secret realm, they had always believed that Qin Feng was more important.
Especially the Dean of Mobis Academy,
who had repeatedly urged Beigong Shang and the others before they set off
to prioritize Qin Feng's safety above all else.
Qin Feng would become their trump card on the Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield in the future.
Once they were relieved, they didn't even feel that it was strange for Qin Feng to have such a special bloodline talent.
It seemed that after the Dean of Mobis Academy's repeated warnings,
they felt that no matter what special traits Qin Feng had, it would be hard to surprise them anymore.
"What did you see just now that caused you to suffer a backlash?"
After confirming that Qin Feng was safe and sound, they refocused their attention on this mysterious hill.
And they asked Qin Feng about what he had seen.
"I saw a living animal."
If Qin Feng guessed correctly, it should be a phoenix.
A phoenix burning all over with flames.
Only, Qin Feng did not know if a phoenix was also called a phoenix in this world.
"It was a creature that, although somewhat similar to a chicken, you could tell at a glance that they were essentially completely different."
"Its body was sleek and graceful, its wings were very large, and its colors were bright and vivid, with red being the primary color."
"Its entire body was burning with bright flames."
Because he didn't know if a phoenix was also called a phoenix in this world,
Qin Feng did not directly point out the name "phoenix."
Instead, he described the appearance of the phoenix he had seen.
"A Phoenix Reborn in Fire!"
After Qin Feng described the appearance of the phoenix, Beigong Yun and Zhao Long said it in unison almost immediately.
Very good, it seems that a phoenix is also called a phoenix in this real world.
"It seems you are both very knowledgeable about phoenixes."
Seeing that both of them had called out the name of the phoenix in unison and without hesitation,
Qin Feng thought they were both quite knowledgeable about phoenixes.
And looking at this posture, the creature known as a phoenix truly existed in this world and was widely known.
Unlike on Earth, where the phoenix was just a legend.
Although many people firmly believed that dragons and phoenixes existed,
in reality, no one could produce any evidence.
"Knowledgeable? I wouldn't dare say that."
Who knew that Beigong Yun and Zhao Long would refute Qin Feng's words in unison again.
"The creature known as a phoenix is just a legend; none of us have ever seen one."
"We have only seen descriptions of phoenixes in the library of the academy."
"But that was a damaged ancient book, and no one knows if that book tells of real events or if it was fabricated by predecessors."
"That ancient book is very popular in the academy, and most students have read it."
"But no one dares to judge whether the creature described in that book truly exists."
Alright, so it turns out the people of the Mobis Kingdom also don't know if phoenixes truly exist.
It seems this was also the first time Beigong Yun and the others had encountered anything related to a phoenix.
However, although the people of the Mobis Kingdom didn't know if phoenixes truly existed,
looking at the scene before him, Qin Feng had to believe that what he saw was indeed a phoenix.
Seeing is believing.
At the very least, Qin Feng could be certain at this moment:
The creature known as a phoenix indeed exists in this real world.
Even if it does not exist in a small corner of the world like the Mobis Kingdom, it must exist elsewhere in this world.
