The roars of the beasts shook the mountains and rivers. Between the Saber-toothed Tiger and the Snow Wolf, neither was willing to submit to the other. Although the Saber-toothed Tiger's innate rank was high, the Snow Wolf's evolution time was obviously longer. Therefore, both were fourth-level monsters, equivalent to the level of a human Grandmaster. It could be said that Du Feng could not afford to offend either of them.
"Woo …"
The wind blew a huge shadow, covering a large area of the forest. Even the sunlight above Du Feng's head was blocked by this shadow. He looked up, just in time to see a fierce big bird.
"Screech!"
A sharp bird cry pierced through the clouds. Du Feng hurriedly protected the Wood Spirit under his body. At the same time, the True Essence on the surface of his body fluctuated, and a thin layer of shield quickly formed.
Upon closer inspection, there were no feathers on its wings, but a layer of lustrous flesh membrane. The wings were incredibly large, covering the sky and extending for who knows how many miles. Its two eyes were like two blood moons, full of blood and hostility. After scanning, it seemed to have found the hiding place of Du Feng and the Wood Spirit.
Damn, I can't be so unlucky, right? Such a big bird, no, it should be the Pterosaur, if it pounced over, my little life will be lost on the spot. Not only will Du Feng's nickname be lost, but the Wood Spirit sister will also be unlucky.
"Swish …"
At this critical moment, the Wood Spirit suddenly disappeared from Du Feng's arms and turned into a blue tattoo on his shoulder.
"Withered Tree Art!"
Du Feng quickly used the Withered Tree Art. Not only did his aura change, but even his color became the same as the branch he was hiding in. In a few breaths, he had completely merged with the tree. A ray of green light shot into the trunk, and the tree actually moved its branches and leaves to help him cover.
This was the power of the Wood Source Orb. It could make plant monsters automatically treat Du Feng as one of their kind and help him when necessary.
"Screech …"
The Pterosaur let out another scream, and then its body began to gradually shrink. As it shrank, it descended and finally landed next to the pool, forming a tripod with the Saber-toothed Tiger and the Blood Wolf. The space here was limited, and it was obvious that it couldn't land with its huge body. After shrinking, it didn't look as scary anymore.
However, the Snow Wolf still shrunk its neck subconsciously. It had an innate fear of the Winged Dragon. This Pterosaur was not yet mature, but it was already at the peak of Level Four. This time, if it could obtain the Source Bead of Life, it would definitely be able to break through to the fifth level of Demonic Beast, and would be able to contend against that hateful Purple Qilin.
Everything in the world was interesting. The Purple Qilin was a Level Five Demonic Beast. With its grade and bloodline talent, if it could cultivate in a place like the Spring of Life, it would have long broken through to the sixth rank. As long as it continued, it might even become a Divine Beast like its ancestor.
However, the nature of the Spring of Life and the purple Qilin's flames were incompatible. If it really came here, not only would it not level up, it would even regress. In this Dark Forest, the Purple Qilin had basically become the common enemy of all demon beasts. At every moment, there were monster beasts that wanted to kill it and eat its Kirin Pill to advance, but up until now, not a single one had dared to make a move.
"Hiss, hiss …"
An oppressive aura inexplicably spread out. The Snow Wolf crawled on the ground, not daring to move, and the Saber-toothed Tiger retreated again and again as if facing a great enemy. Only the Pterosaur repeatedly hissed to express the unwillingness in its heart.
A hundred meters long, as thick as a house, shining with silver light, snaked through the mountain. It looked like huge scales that were cast from metal, each one incomparably hard. When it brushed past the mountain rocks, it clanged and sparks flew everywhere. Many trees that were lightly brushed by it fell one after another, then smoked and withered.
The big snake was a Hou, and the big Hou was a Flood Dragon. This big Hou was much bigger than the old Snake King that Du Feng had seen before, but it had not yet become a Flood Dragon. That old Snake King had only cultivated for a thousand years. Although it had a fortuitous encounter and turned into a Flood Dragon, it was killed by Du Feng before it could mature.
This big Hou had something like a cockscomb on its head, and it also began to show signs of turning into a Flood Dragon. Although it had not yet become a Flood Dragon, its more than three thousand years of cultivation was not for show. Moreover, it had grown up in a place like the Dark Forest, and its combat strength was still at the peak of Level Four. This time, as long as it obtained the Source Bead of Life, it could break through to Level Five and transform into a Flood Dragon to soar into the sky.
"Hiss, hiss …"
When the big Hou approached the pool, it also began to shrink its body, as if it was obeying some kind of rule. Du Feng was somewhat baffled. Shouldn't the bigger the body of a demon beast, the stronger it was? Why would a demon beast that relied on its strong body to fight take the initiative to shrink its body?
"Oh, Luoluoluoluoluoluoluo …"
A series of strange cries came from afar. It did not sound like it came from an animal, but more like a barbarian that had not fully evolved. What kind of joke was this? There was actually someone coming to interfere in this Dragon Crouching Tiger Crouching. They simply did not know how to write the word "death".
"Bang, bang, bang …"
It was obviously too early for Du Feng to come to a conclusion. A blurry figure in the distance gradually began to become clear. He walked upright, and his height was comparable to a mountain. He wore the skin of an unknown animal and held an incomparably huge wooden stick in his hand. What kind of animal's skin could be used to sew clothes for him? How big of a tree was it for him to carve into a wooden stick?
It was too unbelievable. This guy's head was even taller than the mountain beside him. At first, Du Feng thought he was seeing things. There was a type of demonic beast called the Yellow River Elephant. Its body was the size of a small hill. But this giant was like a giant mountain. A single stomp from the Yellow River Elephant would turn it into meat paste.
How was he going to fight this? Du Feng was considering if he should retreat. The aura that the giant was emitting was similar to the Purple Qilin. It was obviously a class 5 demonic beast. According to the human's standard, he should be at the Origin Realm of Cultivation. But giants didn't cultivate in cultivation techniques. They relied on their strong body, which was why they couldn't be compared to the Origin Realm.
What was interesting was that when he approached the pool of the Spring of Life, his body gradually shrunk until his final size was similar to those demonic beasts. Once his body shrunk, his aura wasn't as terrifying anymore.
In the end, Du Feng decided to stay and see what would happen next. Even if he couldn't participate in the battle, he could at least watch this unprecedented battle. If he could find an opportunity to slip into the pool, he would be able to fish in troubled waters.
"Rumble …"
