The legendary Golden-winged Roc's talent lay in its speed.
The Roc could travel 90,000 miles with a single wing!
Although the Sky-Ripping Eagle was not the real Golden-winged Roc, it had only inherited a trace of the Golden-winged Roc's bloodline.
However, the advantage of speed was directly inherited from this bloodline. Although it could not be compared to its ancestor, its current speed was still invincible among those of the same level.
Just now, because of its huge size, the Sky-Ripping Eagle could not fully display its speed advantage. Now that its body had shrunk, its speed was perfectly displayed in front of Qin Yi.
Fortunately, Qin Yi cultivated the Seven Stars Footwork, and its advantage was not only in speed. Its changeability was also one of the reasons why it attracted Qin Yi to cultivate it.
The Seven Stars Footwork changed with every step, and every step could produce changes that were hard to grasp.
Back in the Sacred Abyss Valley, even the reincarnated Red Shirt could not do anything about the Seven Stars Footwork.
However, even with the advantage of speed and changeability, Qin Yi was still unable to achieve victory in the competition.
It had to be said that the Sky-Ripping Eagle was too fast. Even if it could not grasp Qin Yi's movement trajectory, the moment Qin Yi appeared, it could still catch up with and even surpass Qin Yi with its heaven-defying speed.
This situation gave Qin Yi a great deal of pressure. Most importantly, the moment it caught up with him, the Sky-Ripping Eagle would immediately attack.
Its sharp claws, like a sharp spear, aimed at Qin Yi's vital points and directly grabbed at him.
Even though Qin Yi's reaction was agile and his speed was extremely fast, he was forced into a dangerous situation by the Sky-Ripping Eagle, and many wounds appeared on his body.
Fortunately, the activation of the Seven Stars Footwork did not consume spiritual power. As long as Qin Yi's physique was perfect enough, he could activate it indefinitely.
Although he was forced into a corner by the Sky-Ripping Eagle, he would not be defeated in a short period of time.
However, Qin Yi was clearly not satisfied with this situation. "If this continues, I will be killed by this beast sooner or later! I have to think of a way to reverse this situation! "
Qin Yi's eyes flickered as thoughts flashed through his mind.
In an instant, he'd thought of many methods in his mind. Unfortunately, he rejected all of them in the end.
At this moment, the Sky-Ripping Eagle's momentum was at its peak. The pressure it was exerting on him had also reached its peak. At this moment, it was clearly not going to be easy to retaliate.
"Hahaha! Humans! Now do you know the difference between us? "
When the Heaven-Ripping Condor saw Qin Yi fleeing in such a sorry state, it was indescribably happy. Immediately, it proudly said to Qin Yi, "I have the bloodline of the ancient golden-winged roc, so killing you is only a matter of time. The way I see it, you'd better stop right now. I can give you a quick death. Otherwise, when the time comes, I can't guarantee that my sharp claws will crush your head or your chest! "
After saying that, the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's claws once again swiped at Qin Yi. It clearly wanted to kill him.
Puff!
Following a muffled sound, a few ghastly bloody wounds appeared on Qin Yi's back. Instantly, fresh blood splattered and his flesh was torn!
Even Qin Yi couldn't help but let out a groan from the intense pain.
The injury this time was undoubtedly one disaster on top of another for the already difficult battle situation.
The excessive loss of blood had already caused his vision to gradually show signs of blurring.
Without a doubt, finding a way out of this situation was already his only way out.
"Power! If I had stronger power! Even if I only had the power of a Rank 6 Dao Embryo Realm, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state! "
Qin Yi clenched his fists and said with slight unwillingness. However, this kind of thinking was undoubtedly a fantasy in this secret realm.
To be honest, breaking through to the Rank 6 Dao Embryo Realm was not a difficult thing for the current Qin Yi.
It was a pity that in this place where there was an absolute limit on the realm of human warriors, the risk of breaking through was undoubtedly greater than facing the Heaven-Shredding Eagle.
But now, if he didn't have enough power, continuing in this situation was no different from waiting for death.
"Qin Yi …"
At this moment, a voice suddenly flashed in his mind. It was the Medicine Pounding Jade Rabbit. Obviously, she also realized the unfavorable situation in front of her and couldn't stand it anymore. "The Heaven-Shredding Eagle has the bloodline of the Golden-winged Great Roc. Although it has inherited its strengths, it has also inherited its weaknesses!"
Qin Yi's eyes lit up. The Jade Rabbit's words reminded Qin Yi.
That's right, everything had its weaknesses.
Although the Golden-winged Great Roc was famous, it was ultimately unable to enter the ranks of the top Divine Beasts. Without a doubt, this situation was because it had a fatal weakness compared to other top Divine Beasts.
Immediately, Qin Yi hurriedly asked, "What is its weakness?"
The Jade Rabbit thought for a moment, then said, "The Golden-winged Great Roc's combat power is extraordinary, and its speed is also recognized as number one. It also has the Invincible Vajra Body. These are all its strengths! "
When Qin Yi heard that, he immediately frowned and said unhappily, "Brother Jade Rabbit, I'm at a critical juncture of life and death now. I don't have time to listen to how powerful its ancestor is!"
"Why are you panicking?" The Jade Rabbit was calm and composed as she said unhurriedly, "The Golden-winged Great Roc's fatal weakness is that it's obstinate and very conceited. Although this Heaven-Shredding Eagle didn't inherit much of its talent, its personality is exactly the same as its ancestor. "
"Conceited?"
Qin Yi frowned. He had a rough idea in his heart.
Conceit was indeed a fatal weakness at times.
Looking at the arrogant manner of the Heaven-Shredding Eagle that was chasing relentlessly, it clearly felt that victory was in its grasp and didn't take Qin Yi seriously at all.
Qin Yi even felt that the Heaven-Shredding Eagle had already treated him as prey and was prepared to toy with him.
Immediately, a glint flashed in his eyes. Immediately, he slowed down and raised his sword to stab at the Heaven-Shredding Eagle.
Qin Yi's sudden change also gave the Heaven-Shredding Eagle a fright. Obviously, it didn't expect its prey to actually give up on escaping at this time and start to counterattack.
However, after a brief moment of astonishment, its eyes regained their original playful look.
"A cornered dog will do something desperate? Do you think that your dying counterattack will be able to harm me? "
The Heaven-Shredding Eagle said mockingly. Then, it didn't dodge or slow down. It directly stretched out its claws and grabbed at Qin Yi.
Pfft!
Another muffled sound was heard and blood splattered everywhere. A few more wounds appeared on Qin Yi's body!
Chapter 1151: Killing the Heaven-Shredding Eagle
"Hahaha!"
The fresh blood stimulated the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's arrogance. It laughed disdainfully. "Is this your counterattack? It's really too funny! "
Qin Yi's attack didn't achieve any effect against the Heaven-Shredding Eagle, which was moving at a high speed.
On the contrary, because he was facing the enemy head-on, the wounds this time were solidly inflicted on his body.
Injuries on top of injuries caused his face to turn somewhat pale. Even his right hand, which was holding the sword, seemed to have lost some strength.
However, the failure of this attack didn't leave a trace of disappointment or discouragement on his face.
Faced with the Heaven-Shredding Eagle, which was looking at him with disdain, Qin Yi didn't hesitate and once again launched an attack without fear of death.
Pfft!
The result was obvious. His attack once again failed and the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's claws left a few more marks on his body.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Brat, your attacks are getting worse each time. "
At this time, the Heaven-Shredding Eagle actually didn't choose to kill Qin Yi directly. Instead, it started to mock him. "I have to say, this is the first time I've felt so happy in such a long time. I don't want to kill you so urgently now. Come, come, come. If you want to play, I'll play with you. "
After saying that, the Heaven-Shredding Eagle actually stopped moving. It flapped its wings and floated in front of Qin Yi. It was obvious that it was waiting for Qin Yi to launch another attack.
Obviously, he liked to see Qin Yi's powerless appearance, but in the end, he resisted with all his might and got nothing in the end.
And the script really started to play out according to its expectations.
Even though his body was covered with injuries, Qin Yi still stubbornly lifted his sword. The Seven Kills Sword let out a sorrowful cry in the air. It seemed like even it couldn't stand it anymore and didn't want Qin Yi to continue hurting it. It had lost all its self-esteem!
Pfft!
The same scene as before played out once again. A few more bloody wounds appeared on Qin Yi's body, but the Heaven-Shredding Eagle was still unscathed as it flapped its wings in front of Qin Yi.
"Kid, continue!"
The Heaven-Shredding Eagle became more and more excited. It seemed to feel that the anger it felt from being fooled by Qin Yi had completely dissipated. Now, its mood could almost be described as beautiful.
And Qin Yi, who had fooled it previously, had become its plaything at this moment for it to enjoy!
"Now's the time!"
At this moment, a cold glint flashed in Qin Yi's deep eyes. The Seven Kills Sword in his hand suddenly overflowed with murderous intent. It was like a sleeping lion that had finally awakened and let out an angry roar.
Qin Yi, who was originally no longer a threat, seemed to have transformed into a god of war. His previous weakness was swept away and his gaze became sharp. He couldn't hide his murderous intent and it gushed out from his eyes like spring water.
Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, a layer of silver-blue flames suddenly appeared on the blue sword, illuminating the originally dark ground!
Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Qin Yi attacked. His attack was swift and fierce, and his sword momentum was like a dragon.
A pressing chill and a terrifying heatwave intertwined at this moment. These two things, which were originally irreconcilable, actually coexisted perfectly at this moment.
The Heaven-Shredding Eagle, who had been very pleased with itself, suddenly felt a fatal crisis. Even the feathers on its body had started to tremble.
It had never imagined that Qin Yi's counterattack this time would be so ferocious!
It was somewhat in disbelief. It was as if it had seen a trembling sheep suddenly transform into a man-eating ferocious tiger.
Under normal circumstances, it would have had a chance to dodge Qin Yi's attack.
Unfortunately, its arrogance and conceit had not only taken away its alertness, but it had also taken away its ability to respond to emergencies!
Pfft!
A familiar sound rang out in the air once again. However, this time, the target wasn't Qin Yi.
The Seven Kill Sword pierced the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's throat with unerring accuracy. Its wound was instantly covered with a layer of frost, and the silver-blue Heavenly Fire entered its body through the wound.
Even though the Heaven-Shredding Eagle had a strong defense, it was still vulnerable under the burning of the mysterious Heavenly Fire.
The surface of its body was gradually covered with frost, and the inside of its body had already been engulfed by the raging flames.
The Heaven-Shredding Eagle opened and closed its beak, but it could no longer make any sound. However, from its unresigned and resentful eyes, Qin Yi could also see that it was definitely resentful of Qin Yi's cunning!
It had never imagined that this seemingly vulnerable human warrior would actually use such a desperate method to deal with it.
Although it already possessed an extremely high spiritual intelligence, it couldn't do such a thing.
Regarding this, Qin Yi didn't feel the slightest bit of emotional fluctuation.
In a situation where there was a huge disparity in strength, it wasn't easy to win.
Wasn't intelligence also a part of strength?
Moreover, in order to defeat the Heaven-Shredding Eagle, Qin Yi also paid a painful price. The injuries on his body were the best proof!
As long as the result satisfied him, it didn't matter what price he had to pay.
Looking at the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's stiff corpse on the ground. Qin Yi had a dreamlike feeling. He found it hard to believe that he actually relied on his own strength to kill a demonic beast with the bloodline of the Ancient Golden-Winged Roc and whose strength reached the third stage of the Dao Transformation Realm.
"Qin Yi, immediately deal with its corpse! Although this fellow doesn't have a brain, its entire body is full of treasures! "
Jade Rabbit's voice was slightly anxious. It was unknown whether it was because she was excited to see Qin Yi kill the Heaven-Shredding Eagle, or excited because she wanted to obtain all sorts of good things from the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's body.
The surface of the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's body had already been completely invaded by the Seven Kill Sword's chill. Clearly, its extremely lethal feathers could not be obtained by Qin Yi now.
However, the mysterious Heavenly Fire did not incinerate everything inside its body.
The inner core of a third stage Dao Embryo Realm demonic beast was clearly a good treasure in itself.
Qin Yi did not stand on ceremony. He directly tore open the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's body and took out the inner core inside before putting it into his pouch.
The remaining flesh and blood were also excellent tonics. With a little processing, not only would it taste delicious, but it would also have the effect of improving one's cultivation.
"Qin Yi, collect its blood!"
Jade Rabbit hurriedly said when she saw that Qin Yi had actually stopped his actions.
Qin Yi was somewhat puzzled. As he followed Jade Rabbit's instructions, he asked, "Could it be that its blood is also a treasure?"
Jade Rabbit replied, "Of course! I can tell you responsibly that the value of this fellow's blood far exceeds its inner core and other things. It can even be said that even if you add up everything in its body, it can't compare to a drop of its blood! "
Chapter 1152: Xia Ji's Help
"What do you mean?"
Qin Yi was a reincarnator after all. Although he had been in this world for a long time, it was definitely not considered long.
As for Jade Rabbit, as a living being in the painting, even though she had been trapped in the painting space for so many years, her knowledge far exceeded Qin Yi's.
"It's useful," said Jade Rabbit indifferently.
Clearly, she was unwilling to explain too much to Qin Yi. "You will know in the future."
Qin Yi never expected Jade Rabbit to learn how to keep him in suspense.
However, he knew that since Jade Rabbit had said so, it must have its uses. In any case, the answer would be revealed sooner or later. It didn't matter when.
After collecting the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's blood, Qin Yi handed it to Jade Rabbit.
After collecting the Heaven-Shredding Eagle's blood, Qin Yi handed it to Jade Rabbit.
Her cold personality was something Qin Yi was already used to. He didn't say anything else. After a simple tidying up, he walked back to where Xia Ji was recuperating.
Xia Ji was still working hard to recover. After this period of time, her injuries were considered stable.
Her aura gradually calmed down, but her expression was just as ugly.
Without a doubt, this kind of injury wasn't something that could be completely healed in a short period of time.
However, being able to become like this was already the best outcome for Xia Ji.
After all, she wasn't severely injured and there were no signs of her realm dropping.
It had to be said that Qin Yi's timely help was of great help to her.
It was a pity that Qin Yi was also severely injured. He had paid a huge price to kill the Heaven-Shredding Eagle.
If any demonic beasts barged in now, he probably wouldn't have much energy to protect Xia Ji.
After taking out a healing pill from his storage ring and putting it into his mouth, Qin Yi said helplessly, "Now, I can only hope that everything will be peaceful while I'm recuperating."
Given his physique, it wouldn't take too long for him to recover from these injuries.
However, during this period of time, he had to focus all his attention on this. He couldn't afford to be distracted in the slightest.
Now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying all this. Qin Yi closed his eyes and started to heal his injuries as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately, sometimes things didn't go as one wished.
A moment later, a violent roar suddenly came from a forest not far away from them.
Roar!
A thick stench wafted through the air. Qin Yi frowned but didn't open his eyes.
Da da da!
Following that, footsteps could be heard coming from the direction of the forest. The sound was getting closer and closer. It was obvious that someone had discovered the aura of a human cultivator and was coming over to look for trouble.
Soon, a cheetah with yellow and black patterns all over its body appeared in front of the two of them. This beast had the strength of a level-one Dao Change State. Its muscles were tight and filled with explosive power.
It clearly saw that the two human cultivators in front of it were heavily injured. Its scarlet eyes surged with a thick excitement, and it roared again without the slightest scruple.
Following that, it bent its front legs and arched its body as if it was ready to pounce. Its target was Qin Yi, whose body was covered in injuries.
Qin Yi naturally realized that the beast had made him its target. Unfortunately, he was at a crucial moment of recuperation.
The medicinal power of the pill had completely spread throughout his body. If he didn't channel it carefully, the powerful medicinal power would instantly go out of control and cause serious injuries to his body.
When that happened, the life-saving pill would become a life-threatening talisman.
Of course, the beast wouldn't care about Qin Yi's current condition. Seeing that Qin Yi showed no signs of resisting, it let out another roar and charged forward.
Leopards were one of the most powerful beasts in terms of explosive power. In a short distance, not only were they fast, but their destructive power was also unimaginable.
It was like a bolt of lightning, arriving in front of Qin Yi in the blink of an eye. It bared its fangs and extended its claws, as if it had smelled the scent of blood and became excited.
"It seems like there's no other way."
Qin Yi couldn't just sit and wait for death. Even if his injuries were to worsen, he had no choice but to face the beast head-on.
However, just as he was about to make his move, a shadow suddenly flashed past him. The air current carried a faint fragrance and a strong smell of blood as it swept toward Qin Yi.
Bang!
Following this, a loud explosion was heard in front of him.
The leopard that was about to attack him seemed to have suffered a huge impact and was knocked backward.
Pfft!
After blocking the leopard's attack, Xia Ji's face turned pale. Following this, she felt a sweetness in her throat as she spat out a mouthful of blood.
It was obvious that at this critical moment, she had stepped forward to block the attack for Qin Yi.
Unfortunately, her own injuries had yet to recover. Now that she had suddenly exerted her strength, her body couldn't handle it. Furthermore, the leopard was no ordinary character. It possessed the strength of a Dao Change Realm cultivator. Even if she was at her peak, she wouldn't have dared to face such an attack head-on.
Roar!
After stabilizing itself, the leopard glared at Xia Ji furiously and let out a bloodthirsty roar. It didn't think that the human before it, whom it had already treated as its prey, would dare to initiate the attack.
Most importantly, it didn't look for trouble with her. Instead, she came knocking on its door?
Since that was the case, it wasn't going to let her go.
Immediately, it gave up on killing Qin Yi and turned to attack Xia Ji.
Xia Ji's eyes narrowed as a cold glint flashed across her eyes. Even though her body was currently weak, her aura wasn't weak in the slightest.
The two quickly began to fight. The leopard's attacks were ferocious while Xia Ji's body was agile and her attacks were tricky. On top of that, she could control the poisonous vines to tangle with the leopard. Although her injuries hadn't healed and her realm wasn't high, she wasn't at a disadvantage.
The battle continued for a while. Xia Ji used her wits and the advantage of the cultivation method taught by the Mirage Flower Palace's ancestor to break the stalemate. Gradually, she pulled the victory to her side.
Another moment later, with a blood-curdling scream, the leopard's huge body fell heavily to the ground, its life completely extinguished.
After killing the enemy, Xia Ji felt as if all the energy in her body had been sucked out. Even the world began to spin rapidly.
Then, her entire body fell backward uncontrollably.
Chapter 1153: Two Cooperating
At this moment, Xia Ji suddenly felt a hand behind her, supporting her body that was about to fall to the ground.
Xia Ji turned around and saw that Qin Yi had already stood up and was supporting her.
Her face immediately reddened and she pushed Qin Yi away. Relying on her own strength, she struggled to stand there.
Qin Yi didn't mind. With a faint smile, he looked at Xia Ji and said, "You didn't have to care about me."
To be honest, he knew Xia Ji quite well. She definitely wouldn't be this enthusiastic towards strangers. Moreover, according to her previous condition, she would only need a little more time to completely control her injuries.
At that time, she could turn around and leave without any misgivings.
Based on her usual style, it wasn't strange at all for her to do something like this.
Moreover, the current Qin Yi had already been through Yi Rong and didn't look the same as before.
In Xia Ji's eyes, the current Qin Yi was a complete stranger. Towards strangers, she never had any extra sympathy.
When Qin Yi was in danger, not only did Xia Ji lend a helping hand, but she also injured herself all over.
This didn't match her style at all.
Hearing this, Xia Ji was stunned at first, then said, "I know who I should save and who I shouldn't."
Qin Yi smiled helplessly, but a warm feeling welled up in his heart. Obviously, he knew that Xia Ji had not only lent a helping hand to repay Qin Yi's kindness.
Both of them were smart people. Even if they didn't say it out loud, they could still understand.
It was obvious that Xia Ji had come to a conclusion about his identity.
It was also because she knew he was Qin Yi that she had lent a helping hand.
However, since Qin Yi didn't point it out, Xia Ji wouldn't say it out loud either.
"I'd like to know, how did you manage to sneak in?"
Xia Ji glanced at Qin Yi. A mocking look suddenly appeared on her face, "Don't tell me you're also coveting the treasures in the Mysterious Realm, which is why you did some shady business to sneak into the Imperial City's team?"
Qin Yi let out a wry smile and snapped, "I didn't expect that I would be so unbearable in your eyes."
Xia Ji's words were naturally a joke. However, she was indeed a little curious. How did Qin Yi, a disciple of the Yin-Yang Academy, get the Cloud Emperor to agree to give him such a precious spot?
This matter wasn't a secret.
Qin Yi didn't hide anything and directly told Xia Ji what had happened. He also told Xia Ji to be careful of Xin Chaohui of the Luofu Sect when she returned to the Mirage Flower Palace in the future.
There was no need to hide anything about the Shadow Organization. After all, this organization was a threat to the entire Yunhai Empire. The more people who knew about it, the more allies Qin Yi would have.
Even if he couldn't pull the Mirage Flower Palace into his camp, at least with this information, the higher-ups of the Mirage Flower Palace would be more vigilant. They wouldn't be easily used by Xin Chaohui and the others in the organization to harm him.
After hearing Qin Yi's words, Xia Ji's expression suddenly changed. Obviously, she didn't expect that there would be such a dark undercurrent in this seemingly calm capital city.
"If things are really as he says, then the three sects are all within the enemy's calculations. No one can stay out of this. "
Xia Ji thought to herself. Her face didn't show any expression, and she didn't say a word. Obviously, she didn't want to make any promises to Qin Yi, and she didn't want to directly tie the Mirage Flower Palace and the Yin-Yang Academy together.
Moreover, there was the shadow of the Cloud Emperor behind this. The implications were too great.
Although Xia Ji hadn't been in the Yunhai Empire for a long time, she had a deep understanding of the situation in the capital city and even the entire empire.
The implications of this problem were too great. Even if she wanted to solve it, she wouldn't make a decision so easily.
After all, she was a disciple of the Mirage Flower Palace. No matter what she did, she had to consider the interests of the sect.
Qin Yi wasn't in a hurry to make Xia Ji declare her position. He knew very well that Xia Ji definitely wouldn't do so now.
Therefore, he didn't feel the slightest bit disappointed in the face of this situation.
"To be able to meet you here, it can be considered a kind of fate."
Qin Yi looked at Xia Ji and said, "Why don't we work together and get more benefits in this mystic realm?"
Xia Ji thought for a moment, then looked at Qin Yi and said leisurely, "What? You see that I'm injured, so you want to protect me?"
It had to be said that Qin Yi really did have this idea. Xia Ji's situation wasn't too good, and the other two sects were also eyeing her covetously. In her current state, if she encountered the Luofu Sect or the Sacred Valley Sect, it would be very difficult for her to survive.
Of course, he knew very well that Xia Ji was a very proud person. She would never agree to something like this.
Therefore, Qin Yi didn't tell her the reason.
He smiled and said, "You and I have been opponents for so long. Don't you want to try working together?"
Xia Ji narrowed her eyes and looked indifferently at Qin Yi, but she didn't say anything.
Qin Yi continued, "To be honest, if you and I work together, we'll just be using each other. My team is the weakest among the four teams. If we can let you join us, we'll naturally be in much less danger. "
His words weren't the slightest bit fake.
Both the Mirage Flower Palace and Qin Yi's team had suffered some losses. Up until now, the only team that hadn't suffered any losses was the Luofu Sect.
If the Mirage Flower Palace's team encountered someone else, they obviously wouldn't be a match.
But if the two teams worked together, their strength would greatly increase. Then, even if they met an enemy, they would be able to deal with them.
Xia Ji wasn't someone who didn't know how to weigh the pros and cons. Moreover, she really did look forward to being teammates with an opponent like Qin Yi.
"We can work together, but since you and I are going to work together, it's better to make some things clear first."
Xia Ji gazed at Qin Yi and said indifferently, "If we work together and find treasures, how should we split them?"
Qin Yi thought for a moment, then replied, "It's naturally better if we can split them evenly. But if there are too few items, then it'll naturally be split according to who puts in more effort."
"No!"
Xia Ji shook her head and said, "I'm clear about your strength. If we split it like this, we'll naturally be the ones to suffer losses. "
It had to be said that in this aspect, Xia Ji really didn't give an inch.
