While flying in the griffin, Kent passed through the gate of Yin-Yang and reached the beast's abode. Due to the protective barrier of the abode, the unevolved griffin couldn't enter inside. Without another thought, Kent began flying on his own, using mana.
As he approached close to the phoenix abode, Kent heard a sound of joyful music. The guardian beasts of the abode were absent at the entrance of the abode. Wondering about the joyful music, Kent hurried towards the center of the abode.
The tall, thousands of-year-old trees fell to the ground along the path. Several rock statues of ancestors were dismantled into dust. Soon, Kent felt the smell of a meat roast and a burning fire.
"What is this smell?" Kent muttered while moving at the speed of the wind. After taking several twists and turns on the rocky terrain, he finally reached the entrance of the phoenix abode.
