Chapter 363 Little Flame Bird
Lin Ze turned his head slightly, his eyes fell on the small and exquisite little fire bird beside him. He saw that the little guy was flapping his wings, blinking his smart eyes, and making a crisp and pleasant chirping sound from his mouth, as if expressing his anticipation and excitement for the next action.
Hearing the little firebird's cheerful cry, Lin Ze couldn't help but smile. He gently touched the little firebird's furry head, then turned to face the mysterious old man.
Lin Ze took a deep breath, straightened his slightly messy clothes, then clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully to the old man, saying loudly: "Thank you for your guidance and trust, I will do my best to live up to your expectations! I am willing to explore that unknown place."
The old man nodded with satisfaction, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes. After getting the old man's permission, Lin Ze no longer hesitated. He carefully held the little Flame Bird in his arms and walked towards the mysterious portal emitting strange light.
As the distance got closer, a strong attraction came from the door, and Lin Ze's pace also accelerated unconsciously. Finally, after taking the last step, he and the little flame bird in his arms disappeared into the mysterious door, and thus embarked on a new adventure full of thrills and unknown challenges...
As soon as he passed through the portal, a strong light blinded Lin Ze.
As the light gradually dimmed, he found himself in a dense forest. The surrounding trees were towering into the sky, and the trunks were so thick that it took several people to surround them.
The little firebird flew out from his arms and flew curiously through the woods.
Suddenly, the ground shook and a huge pangolin broke out of the ground, its scales all over its body shining with a metallic luster.
Lin Ze was startled, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart. Without any hesitation, he quickly drew out the gleaming sword from his waist with his right hand. At the same time, the little flame bird standing beside him showed no fear. It spread its wings, and suddenly a ball of blazing flames spewed out of its mouth, attacking the ferocious pangolin directly.
However, this pangolin was clearly no ordinary creature. It was extremely agile and flexible, and easily avoided the flames ejected by the little flame bird. Then, its thick and slender tail swept across like a steel whip, sweeping directly towards the little flame bird in mid-air with a sharp sound of wind.
In a flash, Lin Ze, who had been closely watching the battle, seized this perfect opportunity, pushed the ground with both feet, and leaped up like an arrow. The sword in his hand drew a dazzling arc in the air, and the sharp blade accurately passed through the tail of the pangolin, splashing a string of dazzling sparks in an instant.
The pangolin was furious, opened its bloody mouth and roared, then turned around and rushed towards Lin Ze. Facing the aggressive pangolin, Lin Ze was not in a hurry. He stepped lightly and shuttled back and forth between the surrounding trees. He cleverly used the trees as cover to avoid the pangolin's fierce attacks. At the same time, his sharp eyes were always fixed on the pangolin's every move, not missing any opportunity to find its weakness.
Finally, the effort paid off. When the pangolin launched another charge, Lin Ze keenly noticed that there was a scale on its abdomen that was slightly lighter in color than other parts. This unique scale made Lin Ze realize that this was probably the weakest point of the pangolin's defense.
So, Lin Ze took a deep breath and gathered all his strength into his right arm holding the sword. When the pangolin rushed to him, he used all his strength and swung the sword in his hand with all his strength, stabbing it under the light-colored scales as fast as lightning. With a muffled "puff" sound, the tip of the sword sank deeply into the pangolin's body.
The severely injured pangolin let out a shrill wail, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, raising a cloud of dust.
Seeing this, Lin Ze's tense heartstrings finally relaxed and he let out a long sigh of relief.
Then he stretched out his arms, gently embraced the little firebird that flew back to him, and gently stroked its feathers to comfort it.
After a short rest, Lin Ze regained his spirit and continued to move towards the depths of the mysterious forest with the little firebird.
As he walked, Lin Ze heard the clear and pleasant sound of gurgling water. The sound was like the sound of nature, attracting him to walk towards the source of the sound. Not long after he walked, a clear and sparkling stream came into his sight. The stream sparkled with charming light under the sunlight, like a flowing crystal belt.
However, at this moment, the little firebird that had been quietly standing on Lin Ze's shoulder suddenly became restless. It flapped its wings and chirped non-stop, as if it had sensed some danger approaching. Lin Ze's heart tightened and he instantly became more alert. He tightly grasped the sword in his hand and scanned the surrounding environment with a torch-like gaze.
Suddenly, huge ripples appeared on the calm water, as if a huge rock had been thrown into it. Then, a huge monster broke out of the water! The monster looked like a crocodile, but surprisingly, it had a pair of sharp antlers on its head. It opened its bloody mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs, and pounced towards Lin Ze fiercely.
In a flash, Lin Ze was quick to pick up the little flame bird, and with his feet he pushed the ground hard, leaping back several meters. With a loud "crack", the monster's huge mouth bit hard on the place where Lin Ze had just stood, splashing water and mud.
Lin Ze knew that the monster in front of him was not a good guy, and it would not be easy to defeat it with his current strength. So, while he was dodging the monster's fierce attacks again and again, his brain was working fast, thinking about countermeasures. After some observation, Lin Ze was pleasantly surprised to find that although the monster had amazing attack power, it seemed a little slow to turn around after each attack.
Lin Ze suddenly had an idea and decided to use this weakness to defeat the opponent. He began to deliberately dodge left and right in front of the monster, constantly provoking and angering it, causing the monster to attack more and more frantically. Whenever the monster's attack failed and was about to turn around, Lin Ze could always cleverly avoid it and take the opportunity to move forward a distance.
After repeating this many times, the monster finally became slower and slower due to excessive consumption of energy. Seeing that the time was ripe, Lin Ze's eyes flashed with determination. He took a deep breath, gathered all his strength in his legs, and then rushed towards the monster's side like an arrow.
