Chapter 1102: Chapter 1099: Such Overbearing Might
The sudden appearance of the Azure Scaled Eagle disrupted Xu Wendong’s plan.
Earlier, he had intended to fiercely battle the black roc for a moment, then pretend to be defeated and escape into the territory of the Red Phoenix Bird.
But he never expected the Azure Scaled Eagle would suddenly appear.
’Yo’
The Azure Scaled Eagle let out a sharp, piercing scream.
A sound so high that it soared into the clouds, echoing throughout this world.
Upon hearing the scream of the Azure Scaled Eagle, Xu Wendong instinctively covered his ears and slightly opened his mouth.
Yet even so, he felt a terrifying force fiercely strike his soul.
Blood spurted from his seven orifices, and his head spun dizzily.
The Azure Scaled Eagle was a demon beast at the Tribulation Crossing Peak, and with Xu Wendong’s current strength, he was no match for it.
Right at the critical moment.
A fierce light akin to fire mysteriously appeared above Xu Wendong.
Its body was magnificent and enormous, resembling a blazing flame; even the Azure Scaled Eagle seemed insignificant before it.
Its feathers shone like red jade, emanating a dazzling brilliance.
Its sharp eyes revealed endless wisdom and authority.
Its appearance caused the surrounding void to distort, and the air instantly became scorching as if it could ignite at any moment from the flames on its body.
Xu Wendong was delighted.
He knew the appearance of the Red Phoenix Bird likely resulted from sensing the call of the Phoenix Fire.
Otherwise, it would not have appeared here.
"Chi Feng, you have crossed the boundary." The Azure Scaled Eagle spoke human language, its eyes revealing undeniable anger.
The Red Phoenix Bird casually waved its wings, and instantly, an invisible force roared out, leaving an unfathomable fissure to their west.
From its high vantage point, it looked down at the Azure Scaled Eagle and spoke, "From now onwards, your territory and mine will be divided by this fissure."
Upon hearing this.
Xu Wendong’s heart couldn’t help but race.
He never expected the Red Phoenix Bird to be so domineering, altering the territorial boundary between the two sides.
The Azure Scaled Eagle was furious: "Chi Feng, do you truly think my protector is afraid of you?"
The Red Phoenix Bird calmly asked, "Then shall we fight?"
"You..." The Azure Scaled Eagle’s eyes were fierce, though its strength was formidable, it knew it was not a match for the Red Phoenix Bird.
Looking at the entire Avian Tribe, only the Golden-Winged Roc could suppress it.
"Since you do not wish to fight, get out of my protector’s territory!" The Red Phoenix Bird snorted coldly, enveloping Xu Wendong with Soul Force, and vanished in a puff of dust under the angry eyes of the Azure Scaled Eagle.
Xu Wendong only felt his vision distort, and the next moment, he found himself beneath a dark red sky.
Not only was the sky dark red, but the ground was too, with a scorching atmosphere pervading the air.
Upon closer inspection, Xu Wendong realized this was a volcanic crater.
Without time to think further, he immediately suppressed his weakness and bowed towards the Red Phoenix Bird: "Thank you, senior, for your assistance!"
The other transformed into the appearance of a middle-aged man in his forties, with phoenix eyes, a tall nose, giving an impression of wild arrogance,
with long red hair, shirtless, and adorned with the emblem of a True Phoenix.
He casually sat on the ground, smiling at Xu Wendong: "May I take a look at your Sea of Consciousness?"
Xu Wendong opened his right hand: "Is this what you want to see?"
As the words fell.
A drop of golden-red blood appeared in his palm.
And at the moment this drop of golden-red blood appeared, the once silent world burst into pleasant avian calls.
Hundreds of birds rose towards the sky, circling above, the colorful lights illuminating the sky, making it look extremely spectacular.
Chi Feng involuntarily swallowed, his pupils full of apprehension, his body trembling: "Please put it away!"
Though Chi Feng was at the Tribulation Crossing Peak, with exceptional strength, he found it difficult to withstand the oppressive aura from this drop of blood.
It felt as though he might disintegrate at any moment.
Upon hearing the term ’you’, Xu Wendong’s heart stirred, faintly feeling the drop of Phoenix Blood seemed to have a significant origin.
He decisively retracted the Phoenix Blood back into his Sea of Consciousness and curiously asked: "Senior, what is the origin of that drop of Essence Blood?"
Chi Feng showed an expression of astonishment: "Do you not know the origin of that drop of Essence Blood?"
Xu Wendong cautiously asked: "Phoenix Blood?"
Chi Feng paused, then smiled wryly: "Do you think a drop of Phoenix Blood can cause such an astonishing scene? Can make me feel oppressed?"
Xu Wendong was utterly puzzled.
Chi Feng explained: "That drop of blood is indeed Phoenix Blood, but not absolutely."
"To be precise, it’s a drop of the Phoenix Ancestor’s Essence Blood."
"Phoenix Ancestor’s Essence Blood?" Xu Wendong’s scalp tingled, a thick layer of goosebumps rose on his skin.
He knew that in the Cultivation World, when a title includes ’Ancestor’, it implies a staggering origin.
This is the ancestor of a race.
Of course.
Excluding certain ancestors from a human race family.
"You obtained the Essence Blood of the Phoenix Ancestor, indicating you have gained the recognition of the Phoenix Ancestor."
"Thus, you are naturally an honorable guest of my Avian Tribe." Chi Feng said: "Stay here for now; if you have needs, speak freely."
Xu Wendong endured his weakness and said: "I wish to kill that Azure Scaled Eagle."
Chi Feng showed an expression of mild difficulty: "The Azure Scaled Eagle is not weak, and is favored by our king!"
With his strength, he could still slay the Azure Scaled Eagle, but doing so would surely incur the king’s blame.
Xu Wendong said: "If senior helps me kill the Azure Scaled Eagle, I am willing to agree to one condition of the Avian Tribe."
Chi Feng fell into silence.
Although Xu Wendong’s cultivation is not high, gaining recognition from the Phoenix Ancestor hinted at extraordinary fortunes.
Such a person is worth befriending.
After all, this son’s future is limitless.
Though the Avian Tribe’s strength ranks second in the Demon Realm, its dream is to roam freely across the Nine Heavens without restrictions.
At a loss for how to respond, a middle-aged man clad in a golden robe, exuding an extraordinary aura, suddenly appeared from afar.
His delicate face, distinct features, and deep eyes seemed capable of peering into one’s soul.
His appearance caused Xu Wendong’s heart to tremble; he hadn’t noticed when this person arrived.
As if he never appeared.
Yet as if, he had always been standing in the distance.
Particularly his transcendent aura made Xu Wendong’s scalp tingle.
However.
That isn’t the most crucial point.
The most crucial point is.
He was holding a head the size of a millstone.
Upon closer inspection.
It was the head of the Azure Scaled Eagle.
Chi Feng also heard footsteps behind him, and upon looking back, he immediately became respectful: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Xu Wendong’s heart stirred.
Even Chi Feng addressed the person as ’Your Majesty’?
Could this be the Avian Tribe’s strongest force, known as the Golden-winged Roc?
