Chapter 445

Furthermore, Zhao Long had been following Beigong Yun from the very beginning and was a loyal follower of Beigong Yun.

And Qin Feng and Beigong Yun were now grasshoppers on the same rope.

Having an extra pass that wasn't being used for the moment,

giving it to Zhao Long to use was normal.

Besides, this was only for him to use temporarily, not giving it to him.

As for this pass, it was naturally handed to Qin Feng by Xiao Fang's husband.

Regarding the fact that Qin Feng had another pass,

everyone else was very surprised.

Including the Dean of Mobis Academy.

They all knew that entering the ancient ruins required a pass.

And they knew even better that obtaining this pass was extremely difficult.

Countless people flocked to it.

But those who could truly obtain a pass were few and far between.

It was because of Beigong Shang that the Dean of Mobis Academy and Beigong Yun knew that Qin Feng and Lin An each had a pass.

But they hadn't expected him to have another one in his hand.

However, thinking about it, they could know that this was the pass in the hands of Xiao Fang's husband.

After all, after Beigong Shang returned to the academy,

he had told the Dean of Mobis Academy and Beigong Yun the whole story in detail.

So, they actually knew some intelligence about Qin Feng and Lin An from the beginning.

They knew the importance of this pass.

Zhao Long didn't expect Qin Feng to be able to take it out so generously for him to use.

After all, even if it were just a loan, if it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't be willing to lend the pass in their hand to someone else.

Not to mention that risk was a problem.

"Wealth should not be exposed"—they knew this principle even at their level of cultivation.

Qin Feng being able to reveal that he had a second pass in his hand was already a sign of great trust in them.

Very solemnly taking the pass, Zhao Long, this simple and honest fellow, made a decision in his heart.

He must not betray Qin Feng's trust.

After using it, he would immediately return the pass to him.

Regarding this, Qin Feng wasn't as concerned as they imagined.

A pass—for him, having one was enough.

Having so many was useless.

Furthermore, he went to the ancient ruins to find things and do missions.

Although the main mission regarding the ancient ruins hadn't been released yet,

he figured it would be along these lines.

When the time came, whether it was better to fight alone or have reliable teammates helping from behind—that went without saying.

Therefore, he didn't mind giving the extra pass in his hand to a teammate he could entrust his back to when entering the ancient ruins.

And Zhao Long, this simple fellow, could barely count as one.

Actually, regarding these people from Mobis Academy—

from the Dean to the Beigong brothers, to the Feng brothers, and then to Zhao Long—

Qin Feng and Lin An had a very good impression of them.

Qin Feng and Lin An didn't covet the pass in the hands of Xiao Fang's husband because they didn't care; they didn't care at all.

But these few people from Mobis Academy clearly needed this pass very much.

Yet, after learning that Xiao Fang's husband, who was an ordinary person, had another pass,

they didn't think about controlling him in their own hands.

This proved that these people's character was top-notch.

Entering the interior of the barrier again,

the scene was still the initial scene; it hadn't changed.

What was presented before them was indeed a huge phoenix struggling to fly toward the sky,

but because of the existence of this barrier, the phoenix couldn't fly out.

It could only keep flapping its wings against the barrier.

Countless flames burned on the phoenix's body.

And many flames, because of the flapping of the phoenix's wings, were fanned and fell to the ground.

Just as Qin Feng guessed, the red hill they saw was indeed a pure distraction.

Inside this barrier where they were currently located, there was no mountain at all.

All there was was a piece of bright red land,

and a phoenix that was frantically wanting to get out.

The land looked as if it were constantly burning with flames,

and it even had some sense of movement,

like fire-red water ripples undulating on the ground.

"Although the scene is shocking, there is nothing here except for a phoenix."

"Our trip in here doesn't seem to have much use."

No matter how magical a divine beast is, it's just a creature with a form different from humans.

Unlike Beigong Yun and Zhao Long, who worshiped the phoenix as a god,

Qin Feng didn't feel that this creature was any more sacred or noble than humans themselves.

He was more concerned about whether he could gain anything from this trip.

"Isn't being able to see a phoenix and confirm its existence the greatest gain of this trip?"

"That's a phoenix! It's a divine beast that has existed since the ancient era in legends!"

"In the world of monsters, the existence of a phoenix is equivalent to a god among humans!"

"This is the first time I've truly seen the existence of a god, rather than hearing about it from legends."

Even someone as wise and steady as Beigong Yun couldn't escape the shackles of this world, this country, and this era.

And it wasn't just Beigong Yun.

After they came in, they activated visual sharing.

Everyone connected by the Soul Chain could see the scene before them.

Among the seven of them, only Qin Feng remained calm and composed after seeing the phoenix.

While the others all worshiped the phoenix as a god.

As for the others, they all revered the Phoenix as a god.

Fine, there’s no way to communicate properly for now; let them continue to worship it as a god.

Qin Feng ignored Beigong Yun and Zhao Long, who were left standing in place, stunned.

He walked forward on his own.

Getting as close to the Phoenix as possible.

Thanks to the protection of the pass,

not only was the high temperature here unable to harm them,

but even the flames burning on the Phoenix’s body that fell from the sky from time to time,

when they neared them,

would seem to be blocked by something, changing direction to land on the ground instead.

They couldn't harm them at all.
