Huo Yu brought Cheng Yu along as they flew along the swamp at a low altitude. Oftentimes, the scene of piranhas and iron swamp vines sneak attacking them would appear. Fortunately, Huo Yu and Cheng Yu had the Phoenix Flame as their trump card. Although they were forced into a sorry state by these things, they were still able to move forward smoothly without any worries.
Walking on the vast and boundless land, Cheng Yu had no idea how big this swamp was. In any case, he did not see any other humans. Along the way, a forest suddenly appeared in front of him.
However, when Cheng Yu was still hesitating whether he should enter the forest or not, a flock of crows suddenly flew over from within the forest.
These crows seemed to have already discovered Cheng Yu's existence. They did not give Cheng Yu any chance to retreat as they charged towards him.
"Devouring Black Crows?" Cheng Yu saw the appearance of these crows and immediately recognized their true identity. Devouring Black Crows were also magical beasts, but they had extremely powerful devouring abilities, especially when it came to energy.
Boom! Cheng Yu was deeply aware of the characteristics of these Black Crows. When he saw the Black Crows flying in front of him, he infused his Spiritual Qi into his sword. When he slashed out with his sword, the sword Qi didn't scatter everywhere.
However, the effect of this slash was very obvious. When these Black Crows came into contact with Cheng Yu's sword, they were immediately sliced into two. This was Cheng Yu's shrewdness. If Cheng Yu had not done this and had instead released the spiritual Qi from the sword, the sword Qi would have been devoured by the Black Crows.
Chi! Chi! Cheng Yu slashed out again and again. In an instant, he had killed dozens of Black Crows. However, there were at least thousands of Black Crows here. This was simply like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water.
Huo Yu flapped her wings, wanting to kill several Black Crows. However, there were so many Black Crows, so she couldn't kill all of them. She was badly battered. She opened her mouth and her phoenix flames turned into a sea of fire.
Huo Yu, don't use energy to attack them Cheng Yu anxiously shouted at Huo Yu when he saw this situation.
Sure enough, just as Cheng Yu finished speaking, not only were the Black Crows not burned to death by the phoenix flame, they started to devour the phoenix flame instead.
Puff! Puff! Watching as the phoenix flames were all devoured by them, they actually opened their mouths, spurting it towards Cheng Yu and Huo Yu.
Cheng Yu and Huo Yu hurriedly dodged, but they were still hit by some of the phoenix flames. Fortunately, these phoenix flames came from their hands, so they were quite immune to the phoenix flames. At the very least, they would not be like others who were burned by the phoenix flames and would be seriously injured, or even directly burned to death.
However, after a few rounds, both of them were charred black. This time, however, Huo Yu didn't dare to casually spit fire anymore. Not only were the flames unable to burn the Black Crows, but they were also depleting her own energy.
A man and a beast fought back to back, not giving these Black Crows any chance to take advantage of them. This was much better than being separated and surrounded one by one.
"This is really a damned place!" When Cheng Yu killed the Black Crow, he was furious and helpless. No wonder no one had found this Mirror Immortal Ruin for thousands of years.
This place was really full of hidden dangers. If one was not careful, they might be consigned to eternal damnation. If they didn't have some strength and vision, it would be difficult to move an inch. Unless they were like Qi Feihuang, gathering hundreds of late stage Spirit Severing experts to barge in together.
But even so, one could imagine what would happen to these people in the end. Only two or three of them managed to survive, and that was a miserable enough outcome.
Although these Black Crows were mysterious, they couldn't hide it from Cheng Yu who had lived for thousands of years. With his eyesight, even if he hadn't seen them before, he would have heard of them.
Otherwise, he would definitely erupt with his full strength and be exhausted to death by these guys. However, although Cheng Yu knew the method to deal with these Black Crows, the number of Black Crows in front of them was quite a lot. With the strength of a man and a beast, it was hard to say if they could kill them all.
Besides, these Black Crows didn't just devour energy. When they got close to the surface, Cheng Yu's defensive barrier would also be devoured. In the end, they would be devoured along with them.
Therefore, Cheng Yu and Huo Yu stayed close to each other, trying their best not to let them get close to their bodies. However, attaching spiritual qi to the sword and continuously slashing like this was also very tiring, and the consumption of spiritual qi was also not small.
Whoosh! Cheng Yu suddenly released the people in the Mountain and River Diagram.
Don't release your spiritual Qi, attach it to your weapon and attack directly! Before everyone could understand, Cheng Yu started to remind everyone.
He didn't want these people to feed these Black Crows a big meal the moment they came out. In the end, the unlucky ones would be themselves.
"Junior Brother Yu, what's this?" Actually, when Xin He and the others were inside the Mountain and River Diagram, they had already seen the situation outside. Because the Mountain and River Diagram was open to them, Cheng Yu reminded them that they were not allowed to come out. Therefore, they didn't move.
However, although they had seen the scene just now, they were unable to hear what Cheng Yu and the others were saying outside. Therefore, they didn't know how to deal with these Black Crows.
These are Black Crows. They are able to devour all kinds of energy and convert it into their own strength. Therefore, we can't release our spiritual Qi. We have to attach it to our weapons so that we can kill them Cheng Yu explained simply.
Devouring energy for their own use? There's such a powerful demonic beast in this world? When the others heard Cheng Yu's explanation, they said in surprise.
The world is so big, how can we understand it all? Now is not the time to talk about this. Quickly kill them. If they have companions, then it will be troublesome Cheng Yu said.
Demonic beasts that lived in groups were very terrifying. Sometimes, they were even more terrifying than a top-notch demonic beast. Because when facing a top-notch demonic beast, even if they couldn't defeat it, they could still think of a way to escape. However, when surrounded by these demonic beasts, they didn't even have the chance to escape.
Regarding this point, they had already deeply experienced it in the scorpion cave. If these fellows really had companions, then they might not be able to kill them all even if their limbs went soft.
With so many people and the correct way to kill the enemies, the killing power of these Black Crows was still very high. Thousands of Black Crows were decreasing at an extremely fast speed.
Just when everyone was killing intensely, the remaining thousand plus Black Crows suddenly retreated. It was unknown if it was because they were afraid or because of some other reason.
"These fellows are truly cunning. If they can defeat us, they will act like they have gone crazy. If they can't defeat us, they will run. Do they really think that we are so easy to bully? Should we chase after them and kill them all? "Xin Luo saw these fellows running away, so she said unhappily.
"Don't bother about them. If another group were to come, we might not even be able to deal with them. It's better for us to quickly leave this place! "Cheng Yu shook his head, frowning as he looked at the direction these Black Crows had left.
"Junior Brother Yu, you are too careful. These Black Crows can't even withstand a single blow. How could they be as powerful as you said!" Xin Luo said. He felt that Cheng Yu was too careful. These Black Crows were nothing special.
He had just obtained a good sword from Cheng Yu. Just now, he had shown off quite a bit in front of these Black Crows. A soul tool was indeed different. When it came to killing enemies, it was much easier. He had no idea how Cheng Yu would feel when he held that supreme-grade soul tool in his hand. When he was fighting, it would definitely be like a fish back in water. In the future, he would have to work hard to get another one.
Perhaps it was because he had obtained a new soul tool, Xin Luo also wanted to fight. The battle just now was obviously not satisfying enough.
"There are some things that you better not try. Otherwise, by the time you realize it, it might already be too late!" Cheng Yu didn't have the mood to explain to them how troublesome the Black Crows were.
To be able to reach this level, which one of them was not simple? At least, these demonic beasts had their own intelligence. Now that their comrade had been killed, as long as they had the slightest bit of unwillingness or vengeance, they would definitely come back for revenge.
Naturally, Cheng Yu didn't wish to foolishly wait for them to come back for revenge. Even if he knew how to deal with these Black Crows, his heart wasn't that big. He wasn't stupid.
"What Junior Brother Yu said is right. The demonic beasts that are able to survive in this place are definitely not to be trifled with. Otherwise, they wouldn't have stopped the humans from entering the Mirror Immortal Realm for thousands of years! "Xin Yun agreed with Cheng Yu's words. Or it could be said that she was starting to believe Cheng Yu's words more and more.
She had never heard of these Devouring Black Crows before. However, not only was Cheng Yu able to recognize these Black Crows with a glance, he was also able to tell their origins and characteristics. He even knew how to deal with them. This made her curious and admire him.
Where did Cheng Yu get all this knowledge from? Although she hadn't read all the strange literature magazines in the world, she had almost read all the books in Limitless Palace.
However, along the way, she realized how shallow she was in front of Cheng Yu. Where did Cheng Yu get to know all these things that weren't even recorded in Limitless Palace?
Who was the big shot that gave him the inheritance? Could it be that these were all the inheritance that he had left behind for Cheng Yu? Wasn't Cheng Yu too lucky? It truly caused people to be curious and envious!
"Don't return to the Mountain River Diagram first. In the future, follow me! Unless it's absolutely necessary, don't easily enter the Mountain River Diagram. This is detrimental to your cultivation. After entering that forest, you must be careful. The Yin Qi inside is quite dense. I believe it won't let us pass so easily! "Cheng Yu said to everyone.
