The Untamed: Wei Wuxian Reborn as a Child

Just then, Cai Luan made a sound, and Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji hurried over to check.

When the two arrived at where Cai Luan was, they saw a cave in front of Cai Luan. There was a mysterious atmosphere at the entrance of the cave, as if it was hiding endless secrets.

Wei Wuxian asked curiously, "Lan Zhan, do you think there's something else in this cave?"

Lan Wangji shook his head slightly, his eyes alert: "I don't know."

Wei WuXian was very excited: "Let's go in and take a look."

Lan Wangji frowned slightly and warned, "Wei Ying, be careful."

Wei WuXian waved his hand nonchalantly, “It’s alright, let’s get Tayun and Xiaobai over as well.”

Just like that, the two of them and their three spirit pets entered the cave. The talisman paper in Wei Wuxian's hand glowed with a faint blue light, illuminating the rugged path within the cave.

The cave was filled with an old atmosphere, and there were some strange patterns on the walls, as if telling a story from long ago.

They moved forward slowly, and soon they discovered a light coming from the innermost part of the cave.

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji exchanged a glance and quickened their pace. As they got closer, they saw that the phoenix was actually there.

It lay there quietly, its originally gorgeous feathers now a little dull, but still unable to conceal its innate noble aura.

Lan Wangji quickly shielded Wei Wuxian behind him, carefully observing his surroundings. The Bichen Sword in his hand was slightly unsheathed, ready to respond to any danger. As if he had discovered something, Tayun flashed and arrived at a stone pillar, chirping.

At this moment, Xue Chonghai, who was in Cai Luan's body, said, "Wei Wuxian, that stone pillar seems to have a barrier. Can you see if you can break it?"

Upon hearing this, Wei WuXian took a few steps forward and carefully observed the stone pillar. He saw a faint halo of light swirling around it, emitting a mysterious power.

He thought for a moment, then drew a talisman in the air. The talisman shimmered with light at his fingertips. With a loud cry of "Break," the talisman flew towards the stone pillar like a sharp arrow. In an instant, the light on the stone pillar flickered a few times and then disappeared.

And at the moment when the stone pillar barrier disappeared, the originally huge and majestic body of the phoenix began to shrink, and in a flash of light, it turned into a small chick.

Wei Wuxian was shocked by this sudden change and couldn't help but ask, "Xue Chonghai, what's going on?"

Xue Chonghai's voice was filled with doubt: "It must be the barrier on the stone pillar that controls the phoenix, so the phoenix can't leave here."

Wei WuXian was even more puzzled: "Then why did it turn into a baby bird?"

Xue Chonghai was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't know about that either. Perhaps there are secrets we haven't yet uncovered."

Wei Wuxian squatted down and looked at the little bird in front of him. Its eyes were smart and clear. Although it was small, it had a unique charm.

Wei Wuxian stretched out his hand, wanting to touch it, but the little bird wasn't afraid. Instead, it pecked his finger gently.

"This little guy doesn't seem to be afraid of people." Wei Wuxian laughed.

Lan Wangji also stepped forward and looked at the chick: "There must be something fishy going on here. We need to be careful."

Wei WuXian nodded, stood up, and looked around: "There should be other clues in this cave."

As they continued to explore the cave, they noticed images starting to appear on the surrounding walls. It appeared to be a scene of an ancient war, with a phoenix soaring through the sky, battling some evil force. However, the images were flickering and blurry, making it difficult to make out many details.

"Is this... Phoenix's past?" Wei Wuxian guessed.

Lan Wangji stared at the image. "Perhaps it has something to do with its current condition."

When they reached the end of the cave, they discovered an ancient formation on the ground. The formation emitted a faint light, as if waiting for something to trigger it.

Xue Chonghai's voice rang out again: "This formation... may be the key to unlocking the secrets of the Phoenix, but it may also hide dangers."

Wei Wuxian looked at the formation, pondered for a moment, and then said, "No matter what, we have to give it a try. Lan Zhan, let's work together and see if we can break this formation."

Lan Wangji nodded and stood shoulder to shoulder with Wei Wuxian before the formation. They both simultaneously channeled their spiritual energy, their hand gestures constantly shifting, their spiritual energy flowing into the formation like silk threads.

With the infusion of spiritual power, the light of the formation became stronger and stronger, and the surrounding air began to fluctuate violently.

The young bird watched them from the side and suddenly chirped, as if to encourage them. Tayun and Xiaobai also stood quietly by, watching their surroundings vigilantly.

Just when the formation was about to be broken, the cave suddenly shook violently and rocks began to fall from the ceiling.

"Oh no, this cave is going to collapse!" Wei Wuxian shouted.

Lan Wangji said calmly, "Stabilize the formation first."

They endured the danger of the cave collapsing and continued to inject spiritual energy into the formation. Finally, after a burst of dazzling light, the formation was broken, and a message was transmitted to their minds.

It turns out that the phoenix was once cursed by an evil force. The stone pillar barrier sealed its power and also controlled its growth. After breaking the formation, the curse of the phoenix was lifted, but it needed to grow again, so it turned into a chick.

Wei WuXian breathed a sigh of relief: "I see."

Lan Wangji looked at the cave, which was gradually calming down. "Let's get it out of here first."

So, Wei Wuxian carefully picked up the little chick and left the cave with Lan Wangji and the three spirit pets.
