That huge light pillar looked very close, but it took Luo Zheng an entire incense stick's worth of time to get close.
The cloaked men standing around the light pillar noticed Luo Zheng, who was not far away, and they seemed to be a little flustered. They made some noises and shouted something at Luo Zheng. At the same time, they danced toward Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng could not understand the language of these cloaked men, but judging from their tone and movements, he could feel a strong sense of warning.
Two of the cloaked men even raised two steel forks and aimed them at Luo Zheng, who was not far away!
Luo Zheng remained calm. In order to avoid angering them, he did not choose to get close. Instead, he watched silently from the side.
The only purpose of those Perfect True Gods entering this world was to control the imperial jade seal.
Luo Zheng knew too little about this world. He needed to find out useful information as soon as possible. Therefore, these cloaked men were naturally very important!
These cloaked men obviously knew the habits of those strange insects very well. There were strange insects emerging from the sand all over the desert, but within the area covered by the light pillar, there was not a single strange insect …
Luo Zheng waited for a while not far away.
Suddenly, he heard a few loud and clear chirps from the sky.
A group of dark shadows flew across the sky, circling around the huge pillar of light.
"Eagles?"
Luo Zheng raised his head and stared. Although the light was dim, he could still distinguish that those black shadows were male eagles.
These male eagles had black feathers that almost blended in with the night. Their black eyes emitted a sharp aura, and they seemed to be very aggressive.
The cloaked men below the light pillar took out a green flute and put it to their mouths to play softly. As the flute let out a pleasant and melodious sound, these male eagles rushed toward the light spot in the distance.
The male eagles flew down and stretched out their strong claws to drag out a strange insect from the sand dune. Then, they threw it gently and swallowed it.
"So these cloaked men are herding eagles," Luo Zheng understood.
The strange insects in the desert were food for these eagles, and they were almost inexhaustible.
The eagles continued to fly, and those strange insects had no resistance at all. Every time they flew, there would be one less dot of light in the desert …
This process lasted for less than an hour.
Luo Zheng kept a certain distance from those cloaked men. Those cloaked men didn't look at Luo Zheng with hostility, nor were they too wary of Luo Zheng.
However, they paid no attention to Luo Zheng. Instead, they concentrated on playing the flutes in their hands and commanding the eagles.
But at this moment, an extremely loud and clear cry suddenly came from the horizon!
"Yo!"
A streak of golden light shot over from the horizon!
The moment the golden light appeared, the eagles were also frightened. They flapped their wings and fled in all directions!
"Golden Roc!"
Luo Zheng's eyes flickered.
That golden light was originally a huge Golden Roc. Its body was much larger than those eagles, and its wide and thick wings were dozens of feet long. When it swooped down, it crushed the head of an eagle. Without waiting for the eagle's body to fall, it swallowed it.
"Yo!"
This Golden Roc seemed very excited. With a flap of its golden wings, it pounced on another eagle. Its huge claws suddenly squeezed and tore another eagle to shreds!
Those cloaked men who were herding eagles also panicked. They communicated with each other and then began to play the flutes in their hands. However, the originally pleasant flute sound became sharp and fierce.
The eagles were encouraged by the flute sound and turned around, turning into black spirals that shot toward the Golden Roc!
A single eagle was not a match for the Golden Roc, but when many eagles joined forces, they had the strength to fight against the Golden Roc. These eagles maintained an extremely high speed, constantly attacking the Golden Roc. For a time, golden feathers kept falling from the sky …
"Yo, yo …"
Seeing that the group of eagles had the upper hand.
Two long cries came from the distance. Unexpectedly, two more golden lights came rushing over. It was another two Golden Roc!
Seeing this scene, those cloaked men panicked.
This group of eagles already had a hard time subduing one Golden Roc. Facing three Golden Roc, they were afraid that they would be completely wiped out.
Moreover, these Golden Roc's flying speed was much faster than the eagles. In this vast desert, even if they wanted to escape, there was nowhere to run. When these eagles were killed by the Golden Roc, the cloaked men would also be pecked to death by the Golden Roc!
"Yo …"
A Golden Roc grabbed half of an eagle's wing while it was escaping. Its body tumbled in the air and fell rapidly toward the desert. With a bang, it crashed not far from Luo Zheng.
"Yo!"
The Golden Roc let out a high-pitched cry and turned into a golden light that rushed down!
The black eagle on the ground had a special appearance. Its neck had a circle of white feathers. When it was fighting with the Golden Roc, this eagle was the most courageous, but now it had the most miserable end! Blood mixed with sand wrapped around its wound. It was unable to resist at all. Its pair of eagle eyes revealed deep despair.
Seeing that pair of eagle eyes, Luo Zheng's heart moved slightly. His knees slightly bent.
The moment that Golden Roc swooped down!
"Now is the time!"
Luo Zheng turned into a ray of light and shot toward the Golden Roc!
It wasn't that the Golden Roc didn't notice Luo Zheng. These Golden Roc also had a certain level of intelligence. It realized that Luo Zheng wasn't with the cloaked men, so it didn't pay attention to Luo Zheng.
It never expected that Luo Zheng would make a move at this moment!
"Sou!"
Luo Zheng calculated the time perfectly. The Golden Roc watched as Luo Zheng rushed forward, but it had no chance to retreat.
"Dong!"
Birds' skulls were the most fragile. Even if these eagles and Golden Roc were vicious creatures, their skulls couldn't withstand a blow.
What's more, Luo Zheng's strength wasn't light. Even a True God wouldn't be able to withstand it, let alone a Golden Roc.
With a muffled sound, Luo Zheng's knee fiercely slammed into the Golden Roc's head!
The Golden Roc didn't even have time to scream before its huge body rolled to the side. After rolling a few times in the sand, it stopped moving.
"Yo, yo!"
The two Golden Roc chasing the other eagles in the sky saw this scene and let out two mournful cries. One of the Golden Roc wanted to take revenge for its companion, so it swooped down toward Luo Zheng.
The cloaked men below the pillar of light were probably worried about Luo Zheng's safety. They waved the flutes in their hands and made a strange noise at Luo Zheng. They probably wanted Luo Zheng to dodge.
Luo Zheng slightly spread his arms. The corners of his mouth turned up in a smile. He stood in place and didn't dodge.
Seeing the huge Golden Roc rushing over, Luo Zheng unexpectedly attacked in a circle!
"Boom!"
Sand and dust flew everywhere.
Under the impact of that power, the yellow sand under Luo Zheng's feet formed a clear ripple that spread out.
The cloaked men stared blankly at the flying sand and dust. After the sand and dust settled, they saw a scene that made them suddenly tremble.
The Golden Roc was lying motionless in front of Luo Zheng. Its head had completely disappeared under the bombardment …
Luo Zheng clenched his right fist and looked at the remaining Golden Roc in the sky with a smile. If this Golden Roc flew in the sky, he really wouldn't be able to do anything to it. If it rushed down, it would only be courting death!
"Yo —"
The Golden Roc circled in the sky and stared at Luo Zheng with its golden eyes. After it realized that this human in front of it wasn't a match for it, it could only reluctantly withdraw!
After the Golden Roc had gone far away, the few cloaked men under the beam of light began to yell and rush towards Luo Zheng.
Two of them raised their hands, bowed, and patted their chests. Hearing this, Luo Zheng felt a headache, but he roughly understood that they were thanking him.
The other cloaked figures surrounded the eagle with a broken wing. One of them helped the eagle bandage its wound, while the others looked very sad.
This eagle with a circle of white feathers around its neck should be quite special. Unfortunately, after its wing was broken, it would never be able to spread its wings and fly.
After the cloaked men helped the eagle clean its wound, one of them picked up a bamboo flute and blew it.
All the eagles in the sky descended and formed a circle on the ground.
One of the cloaked men patted the eagle's back and called out to Luo Zheng.
