Chacha didn't want to answer, so Shao Xuan didn't force him to answer.
Shao Xuan knew from the Hui tribe that the great mountain eagles had many secrets. They didn't even bring anyone with them to Eagle Mountain. It was rare for Shao Xuan to follow a great mountain eagle to Eagle Mountain, and that was because he was raised by Shao Xuan and this was his first time going to Eagle Mountain. Otherwise, other eagles wouldn't have allowed humans to follow them.
Even if someone found Eagle Mountain, they might not be able to climb to the highest peak of the icefield. Even if they did, they wouldn't be able to fly with the great mountain eagles to the real Eagle Mountain. It was just like Shao Xuan's situation back then. This tall and long mountain range was only a barrier. The real Eagle Mountain was where Shao Xuan saw the eagles flying after the mist on the peak of the icefield dispersed. The real Eagle Mountain was even taller than this mountain range. He couldn't see the top or the bottom. No one knew what was at the bottom of Eagle Mountain.
However, if he explored it on a spiritual level through the special world of darkness, distance and barriers would no longer be a problem.
After a short rest and some food, Shao Xuan glanced over at Yi Zong and Yi Zong. He noticed that the Yi family totem was brighter than before. However, that was the only difference. There weren't any obvious changes.
Looking away, Shao Xuan decided to check out the figures that he suspected to be the ancestors of the great mountain eagles.
With his previous success, Shao Xuan entered the world of darkness even faster this time. He walked up to the figures made of blue flames and counted them carefully. The number was astonishing.
Many!
Too many!
Thousands, maybe even tens of thousands, or even more.
Although the figures made of blue flames contained life energy, it was different from the life energy of real living creatures. It was closer to the Bone Reading Beasts used by the Yi family. Of course, they were only similar in nature and weren't exactly the same. Moreover, the strength of life energy of these giant figures was very different from that of the Yi family's Bone Reading Beasts. These figures made of blue flames had greater life energy. They were like scattered fire seeds stacked together, just like the Yi family's formation. Countless figures of giant beasts were stacked together like firewood, emitting an ancient and ancient aura.
The Soul of Eagle Mountain!
This word suddenly popped into Shao Xuan's mind.
He tried to identify the individual giant beasts, but they were stacked so tightly together that he couldn't see them clearly. However, Shao Xuan had a rough idea of their general shape.
They were indeed different from the giant mountain eagles, but they were somewhat similar to the small pterosaur he got out of the ice.
The Chacha didn't want to tell him any secrets about Eagle Mountain, but Shao Xuan was almost certain that these giant beasts were the secret of Eagle Mountain. They were the ancestors of the giant mountain eagles, the real ancient giant beasts! They were also one of the overlords that once ruled the world!
Perhaps, the time they existed was the era that the pterosaur that had survived from the ice was familiar with.
A long time ago, when the Yanjiao tribe was still trapped on the other side of the boundless river and isolated from the rest of the world, Shao Xuan heard from the Shaman that the giant mountain eagles had their own beliefs. They couldn't be tamed, and they couldn't accept the power of fire seeds from other tribes. Perhaps these giant mountain eagles were the "beliefs" of the giant mountain eagles. Generations of giant mountain eagles flew thousands of miles to Eagle Mountain. No matter if it was a young eagle or an old eagle that came here for the first time, they would all be reborn after coming here. It was similar to the awakening of totemic power or leveling up of totemic warriors. Many of these changes might have been caused by the stacked blue figures.
These blue figures formed the "fire pit" of the giant mountain eagles, and they were the real core of the entire Eagle Mountain!
When he first saw the frozen pterosaur, Shao Xuan wondered where the giant beasts that once ruled the world and trampled humans at the bottom of the food chain had gone.
Many tribes had records of their ancestors that recorded and preserved the ancient history, but there were very few records about the ancient era. Many tribes with a long history had the same story, but it was from the perspective of the tribe's fire seed. It was said that a long, long time ago, humans were still prey to the beasts. They weren't strong enough, and it was the fire seed that gave them power. It was the fire seed that brought humans to where they were today.
No one knew what happened in the ancient times but based on the evidence he found, he was sure that the fire seed had indeed changed the world. However, it wasn't just humans that changed the world. Every living thing in the world was changed too. Perhaps humans were the smartest, and they were the first to understand the use of the fire seed.
The Soul of Eagle Mountain was one of the pieces of evidence. Eagle Mountain wasn't the only place in the world that was similar to it!
As for the other similar secret places that were unknown to the public, it was still unknown where they were. The world was so big that they only knew a corner of this forest. There were many more places that humans hadn't explored yet, but Shao Xuan had a feeling that they would come across them in the future.
It was just a hunch.
His head started to hurt, and he used up too much energy, so Shao Xuan left the world of darkness.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Shao Xuan sensed the fluctuations of the fire seed's power. He looked at Yi Zong and the other man. The totemic flames that had been brightening were fluctuating, dimming for a moment, then brightening again.
It had begun!
For such fluctuations to occur, the two sides must have started fighting!
As Shao Xuan rested, he observed Yi Zong and the other man's totemic flames. When Yi Zong and the other man's totemic flames weakened, the battle would have ended and Shao Xuan could go over to check it out.
In the dark, empty world where the Yi family resided.
After Shao Xuan disappeared again, Yi Xiang, who had been watching the Yi family, turned slightly to look at where Shao Xuan had appeared. After staring for a while, Yi Xiang made his move. His hand that had been holding the string of wooden ornaments began to move. His movements were small and could be missed if one wasn't paying attention.
Yi Tuan, who had been watching Yi Xiang cautiously, was surprised. Others might not be able to tell but he knew what Yi Xiang was doing.
Yi Xiang was performing a divination!
Why was he performing a divination at a time like this?! And the target of the divination could be the missing Yanjiao!
Regardless of who Yi Xiang's target was or why he was doing it, Yi Tuan had no time to think about it. He decided to seize this opportunity. Everything else could wait. The only thing they wanted to do now was to find a chance to deal with Yi Xiang.
Without further ado, Yi Tuan roared, "Go!"
Almost at the same time, the three Yi family elders, including Yi Tuan, attacked. Four bright spots flew out from each of their hands. Just like the Bone Reading Beast, these spots transformed into giant beasts as they flew past the flames. Some were slender, some were heavy, some had carapaces, and some were like meteors with fireballs. These balls were images projected from the stones used for divination.
Yi Tuan and the others had made ample preparations before this. It was evident from the timing and momentum of their attacks. Under the aura created by the three of them, it gave people the feeling of a river flowing into the sea.
Twelve beasts and stones projected by bone, carapaces and stones shot towards Yi Xiang. The combined power of the three elders was astounding. Even in this dark void, it brought about a gust of wind. Among the people guarding the formation, those who were slightly weaker all had their breathing disrupted at this moment. Their chests were oppressed, and they could only feel the tremors under their feet. Their legs were numb for a moment, and their chests were oppressed. It was as if there was not enough air to breathe.
Yi Xiang did not panic at the sudden attack. He did not move or turn around, one hand still holding the wooden ornaments. Facing the Yi family, he raised his other arm towards the arc of fire in the totem, as though he was casually shaking off dust from his sleeve. He waved his arm downwards, pointing at the arc of fire not far away.
The moment Yi Xiang swung his arm down, the arc of fire on the totem suddenly flared up as if someone had poured oil on it. The flames grew ten times bigger!
By then, the Bone Reading Beasts had reached them. They did not slow down in the face of the wall of fire, charging straight into it.
The moment they collided, there was a sudden explosion of power. The wall of fire in the arc of fire in front of Yi Xiang spewed out like lava from a volcano, its aura spreading outwards.
As the attacks of the Bone Reading Beasts and the Bone Reading Stones collided, booming sounds rang out continuously. The fire wall formed by the elongated flames was like a sturdy city wall, blocking the concentrated attacks. The flickering of the flames was no longer the sound of a normal bonfire being blown by the wind, but more like the hysterical roar of a ferocious beast. The blossoming heatwave swept up the exploding sparks and splashed in all directions, flying as far as the eye could see.
If one could see the expressions on everyone's faces, they would have noticed the change in Yi Tuan and the other two's eyes. When they launched their attack, their eyes were burning with anticipation, hoping that this attack would work. Even if they could not seriously injure Yi Xiang, just inflicting some damage on him would be enough for them to be excited.
But very quickly, the anticipation in their eyes and the flames of desire in their hearts were mostly extinguished. What replaced it was shock, intense disappointment, and sorrow that was beginning to spread. It was just that no one knew about this.
This was the first large-scale collision between the two sides. There was no sand or pebbles here, but everyone felt like they were in the middle of a storm, their bodies about to fall apart. The Bone Reading Beasts attacked in a frenzy, determined to break through the wall even at the cost of their own lives. At their peak, one of the beasts opened its mouth, only an arm's length away from Yi Xiang. That was how ferocious and frenzied their attacks were!
But unlike the fire path, Yi Xiang was calm on the other side of the fire path. Not a single spark flew in his direction. Even when the Bone Reading Beasts were only an arm's length away, he did not make any extra movements. After waving his hand, he continued what he was doing, as if he did not notice anything.
He was just defending, not even glancing at Yi Tuan. Yi Xiang maintained his posture, as if the combined attack of the three did not matter at all.
Ignored!
Blatant disdain!
Yi Tuan and the others were already furious when they heard him say 'your generation is not good'. Now, he was using reality to prove to the Yi family that he was not lying.
This was Yi Xiang, the one the Yi family had failed to kill back then. The Yi family was unlucky.
…
On the other side, when Shao Xuan noticed that the totemic flames around Yi Zong and Yi Tuan were beginning to change, he did not divert his attention to anything else. Instead, he kept watch.
The totemic flames around Yi Zong and Yi Tuan grew stronger at first, then began to ripple violently. The two Yi Zong and Yi Tuan seemed to be under great pressure, their bones creaking and their veins popping under their skin.
"Looks like the Yi family is not doing too well either," Shao Xuan thought.
This situation lasted for three days before the totemic flames around Yi Zong and Yi Tuan slowed down.
"It's over?" Shao Xuan secretly guessed, but immediately denied it. It shouldn't be so soon. He had waited here for three days, but on the other side, not much time had passed. Perhaps the clash between the two sides had just come to an end.
Should he go over and take a look? Let's see if the Yi family has the upper hand, or if the mysterious' Unlucky 'has the upper hand.
Shao Xuan had been waiting for the past few days, keeping himself in good condition, ready to enter the world of darkness again at any time.
