The corner of Ji Mo's eye twitched, "As expected, people can't be generalized."

However, looking at the girl's strange appearance, it is impossible to be sure what she is. She is a powerful guard, the only being in the secret realm that manifests in human form. She is the only one lying quietly under the giant tree to rest. Maybe she herself is also an extraordinary existence.

In this way, the bloody fighting outside seems nothing.

Looking at the two dazed people, the girl kept thinking. After a moment, she seemed to understand something. She clenched her right fist and slapped it on the palm of her left hand. Her eyes couldn't help but shine.

"I understand!"

At the end of the season, looking at the girl's excited expression again, a big question mark appeared in his head: "Kid, what do you know now?"

Zhao Ruoxi chuckled, "Isn't this the trial in the secret realm?"

"Since the imitation eternal fire exists here, burning and killing living beings, and the imitation ancient tree of life is also devouring life here, then our goal is very simple! Either we go to the deep forest to extinguish this flame, or we can resurrect the dead, or at worst, we can guide those dead souls to rest in peace."

The girl nodded resolutely, "They are all small things! I know how to do them! My stepmother taught me."

The corners of their mouths twitched involuntarily, and their facial expressions seemed to have long been out of control. The girl's words rang in their ears, and they felt so outrageous.

However, the two of them were also keenly aware of the unfamiliar terms that came out of Zhao Ruoxi's mouth.

Ji Mo spoke softly, "Imitating the eternally burning fire? Imitating the ancient tree of life?"

"what is that?"

When the girl heard Ji Mo's doubts, her head tilted again, as if she couldn't understand Ji Mo's doubts.

But after a moment, she seemed to think of something: "Hmm... I remember now. My stepmother said that these things must be kept secret except for my family, those strong people who have already entered the Dao, and the nine-tailed fox living under the ancient tree of life. No one else knows."

"what!"

The girl tapped her head lightly. "I accidentally said everything that was in my heart. What should I do now?"

Zhao Ruoxi looked at the two of them. "It's not bad to communicate with them. It seems that there is no need to kill them like the old man."

Waves of chill rose from behind Ji Mo, and it seemed that the girl's life or death depended on a single thought.

The corners of Ji Mo's eyes twitched, and he felt unwell. The illusory sun continued to rise, and the warmth it emitted turned into a biting chill, but soon the chill disappeared.

The girl closed her left eye, raised her right index finger, and put it to her mouth, showing a very cute expression.

"I'm telling you, don't say anything. We're in a secret place now, and the old man probably won't be able to find you. I'm just going to tell you what these are in secret. This is our secret."

Baishui was frightened by the biting cold just now, and was still a little panicked at this moment. His body involuntarily moved closer to Jimo, and his pink claws gently grabbed Jimo's feathers.

Hearing Zhao Ruoxi's words at this moment, he nodded involuntarily.

After receiving a positive answer, the girl smiled happily. That smile was so pure and touching. (Unlike Ding Zhen)

Zhao Ruoxi sat cross-legged, with her small hands resting on her fair thighs, sitting very straight. In order to emphasize her seriousness, she deliberately cleared her throat, but her tone was broken as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Um, um, uh...how should I put it."

Zhao Ruoxi scratched her head in distress, as if she had no experience in telling people about what happened. After thinking hard for a long time, she spoke again, her speech was so fast that it was almost impossible to hear clearly.

"That's right. The eternally burning fire is the Fire Phoenix's talent. The reason why we say it's imitating the eternally burning fire is because of its literal meaning. The imitation is very different from the original, almost worlds apart." The girl's small hands kept gesturing in the air, trying to describe to the two of them what it was and what it looked like, but unfortunately the girl seemed to have no talent for explanation. No matter how hard she tried, the two of them didn't understand at all.

The only thing they understood was that the girl seemed to have seen the real eternal fire, that is, a living fire phoenix. This news was enough to shock the two of them.

You should know that the Fire Phoenix is a legendary creature. It is said that they live in a valley in the westernmost part of the continent, where there is a flame that never burns out. Scarlet birds soar in the sky. When their lives are nearing the end, they will ignite the flames, burning their bodies to gain a new life. Many news reports on the continent describe their existence. In addition to the Fire Phoenix, there is also the Ice Phoenix outside the northernmost iceberg, the Nine-tailed Fox in Qingqiu Mountain, and the dragon in the southern sea.

As for whether it really exists, no one knows, because the people who write reports will not go deep into the deep forests in the west to find out. After all, there are too many wild beasts there, and very few can survive, let alone go west to the valley that is unknown whether it exists.

Ji Mo didn't believe it before, but when he was out for training, he met Wang Ji who seemed to have a phoenix feather, which he later traded to Feng Han. Wang Ji's exploration was also recorded in the Book of Destiny, and the concept of "Taking too little to give to the rich" that he comprehended did exist.

Now Ji Mo is very convinced of the existence of the Fire Phoenix, but hearing Zhao Ruoxi's relaxed tone, Ji Mo smacked his lips. Although he had expected it, he was still a little shocked. It seems that this secret realm is really extraordinary, and he has met a real big shot.

Zhao Ruoxi looked at the two people's shocked expressions and raised her hand and waved it in front of them.

Ji Mo nodded dully: "You continue."

"Hmm... How can I explain to you the imitation of the ancient life tree?"

The girl scratched her hair in a slightly distressed manner, and her furry fox ears kept shaking.

She looked at the two of them with a hint of expectation: "Do you know the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan?"

"It's the nine-tailed fox that lives under the Ancient Tree of Life. They have many white tails, and the most they have are nine."

The two shook their heads in confusion. Bai Shui had obviously heard of these strange magazines. She stretched out her pink palm, raised it high as if raising her hand, and asked timidly.

"Nine-tailed Demon Fox, doesn't the Nine-tailed Demon Fox live in Qingqiu Mountain?"

Bai Shui's question made Zhao Ruoxi, who was not good at explaining, stuck for a moment.

"Uh...well..." She lowered her eyes and spoke carefully: "Do you really know nothing?"

"The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox and the Nine-Tailed Fox are not the same. They are two completely different species."

"How should I put it? It's probably like the difference between lake water and sea water. Although they look almost identical, sea water is salty and the more you drink it, the thirstier you become."

Ji Mo seemed to understand something and nodded slightly. Zhao Ruoxi saw Ji Mo's gesture of understanding and clapped her hands happily.

"Ji Mo, you understand what I mean, right? I knew it! I definitely have a talent for explaining!"
