Ye Zichen could tell from the bird's cry just now that it was in a difficult situation.
If his guess was right, it had to be the outsiders Gu Luolin had mentioned before it left. They'd forced the bird into dire straits. However, the bird was clearly a lord-level savage beast. How could someone threaten it?
Kui Lin?
Ye Zichen muttered to himself. Of all the people who'd entered, only Kui Lin seemed like a threat to the bird.
Of course, the Venerable of Spiritual Treasures or the Red Demons were also possible threats!
Gu Luolin was still yelling about going over to help. All Ye Zichen could do was tug at her and scold her.
"Are you out of your mind? There's a cliff down there …."
"But I can fly!" Gu Luolin blinked.
This slap was solid. Ye Zichen had even called her out for being out of her mind, but little did he know that she'd known all along that this was a cliff.
She could fly?
Could it be that he could use a divine flying artifact here?
Ye Zichen had never used one before. In the past, he'd always flown in the air. Divine flying artifacts were only for people below the diviner level, and he hadn't used them ever since he'd become a diviner.
He couldn't fly in the air once he reached the snowy mountains. No one else had mentioned this, so he hadn't thought about it.
It seemed that they hadn't considered the issue of divine flying artifacts either.
Just as Ye Zichen was wondering whether they'd be useful here, a pair of translucent wings formed from the power of the wind appeared behind Gu Luolin.
"....."
Ye Zichen was dumbfounded!
Complete mastery of the wind element!
When he saw Gu Luolin's wings, his eyes flashed with astonishment.
Her wings were Wings of the Wind, which could only be condensed after one's mastery of the wind element reached a high degree of mastery. Given Ye Zichen's current mastery of the wind element, forget two, he couldn't even condense half a pair.
He hadn't expected this girl to be so accomplished in the wind element!
If she condensed two pairs of wings, she'd probably condensed a dao heart!
"Look!"
When she released her wings, Gu Luolin even spun two rounds. The surrounding wind surrounded her. She was like a wind fairy surrounded by the wind as she spun on her tiptoes.
"Can your Wind Wings carry people? If you can, bring me along. Maybe I know the people who are coming. Even if I don't know them, I can still help."
He couldn't rule out the possibility that the intruders were the Venerable of Numinous Treasure and co. Especially since Yang Jian saw that Ye Zichen had been captured by the eagle, he felt that it might be them who had come to ask for Ye Zichen.
If it were them, so long as Ye Zichen stepped in, everything would be easily resolved.
"You …" Gu Luolin sized up Ye Zichen. "Are you good!?"
It was clear that Gu Luolin had noticed how pitifully low Ye Zichen's cultivation level was. Ye Zichen couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Just bring me down!"
"Alright, if anything happens, hurry up and call me. I'll go and save you."
"…"
This young lady is really treating me as a form of address for a junior to address an elder!
As expected of a complete stage Wind Element expert. When Gu Luolin brought Ye Zichen down from the cliff, it wasn't like when the eagle had grabbed him and caused his face to hurt. Instead, Gu Luolin basically didn't feel any wind at all. Even if there was wind, it was just a gentle breeze.
The cliff was terrifyingly high. Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin had to pass through at least three layers of clouds before they could see the ground.
"Ugh!"
The eagle on the snowy mountain glared at the intruders in front of it angrily, while there were plenty of bird corpses around the intruders. Actually, the eagle's situation wasn't as bad as Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin thought. Its cries earlier were actually for its dead clansmen.
However, the eagle's situation wasn't good either. It had yet to recover from the wounds Yang Jian had left on it.
The intruders took advantage of its injuries and focused all their attacks on its previous wounds. As a result, although there weren't any new wounds on the eagle's body, the original wounds were much deeper than before, causing blood to flow down its pure white wings.
"Lord Demon Emperor, this beast is a bit troublesome."
One of the intruders was a short man with a pipe in his mouth. His eyes flashed with solemnity. Smoke billowed from the pipe in his mouth. The eagle stared intently at the smoke; it was precisely this smoke that had killed so many of its generals.
This man was the ruler of the Western Regions, Tie Tan. The yao had always been a nation of poisons.
As the ruler of a country, Tie Tan's poison arts had reached the pinnacle of perfection. The pipe in his mouth was actually a divine artifact he'd expended nearly all of his resources to create. It was ranked twenty-seventh on the divine artifact rankings.
"It really will be hard to deal with," nodded Jiao Hai, the king of the Southern Kingdom.
The two yao rulers had already switched sides completely to Kui Lin's side. However, it was strange. Of the previously vast army of Demon Emperors, only four remained, including the Demon Emperor himself. The others were nowhere to be found.
"Isn't it better that it's hard to deal with?" Kui Lin laughed heartily. "It seems I'm quite lucky to have encountered such a powerful beast."
Devil Emperor Kui Lin smiled playfully. The three people at his side all had powerful auras, and they were all Imperial Emperors. That made it so that the flying beasts in the area didn't dare to attack them.
"The beast we encountered earlier seemed to be the Northern Mountain Snow Ape. It must be guarding a supreme treasure. If it weren't for the temptation of transcendence, I would definitely kill it and take the treasure. "
"Lord, you mean …."
"Hmph. If I'm not mistaken, this beast must be guarding a heaven-defying treasure." Greed flashed through the Demon Emperor's eyes. When he'd first encountered the Snow Ape, he'd sensed that it was guarding a shocking treasure. However, the Snow Ape was simply too far away from the palace. Anyone who entered the snowy mountains had to race against time. If he wasted too much time with the Snow Ape, what if someone obtained the Good Fortune of Transcendence from the palace?
Transcendence.
That would be like throwing away a watermelon and picking up a sesame seed!
In order to transcend, the Demon Emperor had given up on the Snow Ape's treasure and hurried to the palace. But unexpectedly ….
"I didn't expect this. I didn't expect this. I didn't see any treasures on my way to the palace, but I didn't expect to meet a bird like you here." "I just wanted to pass by and didn't want to attract unnecessary trouble. But now it seemed that luck really couldn't be stopped. I'm certain of your cultivation. With you sealing the path, no one else will be able to take even half a step forward. I haven't encountered anyone else, so I'm the fastest.
”
"Since I have nothing better to do, I can't possibly travel empty-handed." Since that's the case, I'll take the treasure you're guarding! "
There was an indescribable confidence in the Demon Emperor's expression. This beast before him seemed to be very strong.
Even Tie Tan and Jiao Hai had said that it wasn't easy to deal with. It truly was powerful.
If this beast had encountered anyone else, perhaps those invaders wouldn't have been able to take advantage of it. However, it could only blame its terrible luck. Or perhaps Kui Lin's luck was just too good. He'd encountered this beast.
In that case, the beast's only fate would be death!
The beast might seem intimidating, but it was actually weak on the inside.
Its true ferocity was never revealed on the surface. Only when it was weak on the inside would it use its intimidating appearance to strike fear into the hearts of others.
Moreover, the beast's injuries weren't light.
"Screech!"
The eagle screeched. It could understand Kui Lin's words, and the fury in its eyes deepened.
It flapped its wings, stirring up a monstrous wind. Countless vortexes appeared around the snowy mountain.
The howling wind made Jiao Hai, Tie Tan and the others unable to bear it. They had to release their god power to set up a boundary around them.
"Angry?" Kui Lin glanced at the eagle. "No …. It seems you're afraid. My guess is correct. You really are guarding the treasure. I can see that you're anxious and want to use your anger to hide your unease. "
"Screech!"
"If you're afraid now, why did you let your clansmen stop me? Why didn't you just let me go?"
The demon emperor rose into the air, releasing strands of purplish-black demonic energy from his palm.
This demonic energy was as thin as silk. No matter how much the monstrous wind howled, it didn't move in the slightest. In the blink of an eye, the demonic energy in the demon emperor's hand transformed into strands that wrapped around the surrounding birds. They couldn't move, but the strands continued to contract.
Until ….
Pfft.
Bloody mist exploded. The surrounding birds didn't even have a chance to resist before they were crushed by the strands.
"Screech!"
The enraged eagle could no longer tolerate the Demon Emperor's cruelty to its people. It flapped its wings and scattered some of the snow on the snowy mountain. Then, it swung its huge wings at the Demon Emperor with a whistling gale.
"Your Highness!"
Jiao Hai and the others cried out.
Before long, the eagle's wings were gently lifted up by the demonic energy strands in the demon emperor's hand.
"Deal with the other beasts. Don't worry about this guy."
"Yes!"
Jiao Hai, Tie Tan, and the demon clan leader took the opportunity to leave. When the eagle saw that the little bug, the demon king, was still alive, it screeched and flapped its wings at him again.
"Why didn't you learn your lesson? Your attacks can't do anything to me."
The Demon Emperor, wrapped in demonic Qi, walked out from under the wing. Immediately, the demonic Qi around the Demon Emperor turned into countless threads that pierced through the wing, firmly fastening it to the ground of the Snowy Mountain Range.
"Screech!"
The eagle screeched. It tried its best to retract its wings, but the strands of demonic energy were extremely strong.
"I can tell that you're not an ordinary beast. You have spirituality! Why don't you be my mount? Once I transcend, I'll bring you out of this place. How about that? "
"Screech!"
"You don't agree?"
The demon emperor gently hooked his finger. The strands of demonic energy instantly pierced through the eagle's other wing.
