The speed at which Yi Yun slashed out with the broken sword became faster and faster. As the rocks trembled, the cracks widened and the red lotus root was completely exposed in front of Yi Yun.
The lotus root was about the thickness of a child's arm. Its surface was covered with meridians, as if there were more than ten crystalline blood vessels attached to it. Its texture was like jade.
Time was of the essence. Without any hesitation, Yi Yun stretched out his hand and grabbed the lotus root, pulling it out!
I've finally gotten it!
Yi Yun used his Yuan Qi to form a protective layer and placed the red lotus into a medicine box he had prepared. With a thought, he placed it into his interspatial ring.
Following that, Yi Yun did not stop and followed his original path out of the lava lake. He returned to the lava valley where he first started.
When he returned, Yi Yun was left with less than 30% of his Yuan Qi. He used all his strength to swim back. Thankfully, he was going with the flow, so it saved him a lot of effort.
After the time it took for a joss stick to burn, in the lava valley a few hundred meters away, there was a "splash" sound. Yi Yun finally emerged from the lava and climbed up the bank with great difficulty.
He lay on the hot rocks and gasped for breath. His Yuan Qi had been depleted to its limit!
The pungent and hot smell of lava entered Yi Yun's lungs through his mouth and nose. It was a little choking, but this smell made Yi Yun feel an inexplicable excitement. This adventure in the second level of the God Advent Tower could be said to be a rewarding one!
He sat up and swallowed a bone relic. After meditating a little, he began to recover his stamina.
The battle in the distance was still ongoing. Yi Yun needed to adjust his condition to deal with any possible danger.
And at this moment, Yi Yun suddenly heard a shrill scream. It was the three-legged strange bird's scream!
This scream pierced through the clouds and cracked rocks. It formed a terrifying shockwave that shot out in all directions!
Ka-cha!
Beneath Yi Yun, a piece of rock was struck by the shockwave and immediately cracked open.
Even Yi Yun's face turned pale from the shockwave. Blood flowed out of his ears.
What a terrifying scream!
Yi Yun was secretly alarmed. This three-legged strange bird was too powerful. Just its sharp shriek had such power despite being so far away. It had injured his eardrums in his weakened state. If it were a weaker warrior, it was not impossible for their organs to explode from the vibrations.
After this shrill cry, a series of screeches followed, bombarding Yi Yun's eardrums. From the looks of it, the three-legged strange bird had discovered that the red lotus was gone!
There were so many strange birds in the sky. Although they were all fighting with the giant tortoise, there were so many pairs of eyes. It was only a matter of time before the red lotus disappeared.
At this moment, Yi Yun did not dare to continue meditating. Only the heavens knew what the strange bird would do when it went berserk.
At this time, he had already recovered about twenty to thirty percent of his strength. He quickly and silently climbed up the walls of the canyon.
He hid behind a large rock and looked at the battlefield.
Yi Yun was greatly alarmed by what he saw.
In the sky, the strange bird's entire body had turned reddish-gold. Its body was burning with pure Yang flames as it launched a storm-like attack on the giant tortoise!
The sea of pure Yang flames that filled the sky had already formed a flaming cloud, with no end in sight!
As for the giant tortoise, its body was charred black in many places. Its head was covered in blood, and its tongue had been cut off by the strange bird!
Now, the giant tortoise's mouth only had a severed tongue. The snake head had already disappeared. Without the snake head, the long tongue could not attack.
However … the giant tortoise was not to be trifled with. The strange bird's situation was also extremely terrible. The strange bird looked extremely powerful, but Yi Yun discovered in his energy vision that the strange bird's energy was chaotic. It was in an extremely unstable state, as if it would explode at any time.
In order to defeat the giant tortoise, the strange bird had probably overdrafted its life force. Furthermore, there were many wounds on its body. These wounds were most likely caused by the giant tortoise's tongue.
And Yi Yun knew that the giant tortoise's tongue contained a lethal poison.
The poison had entered the three-legged strange bird's body, so it would definitely have a significant impact on it.
If this battle carried on, the two top overlords of the second level of the God Advent Tower would pay a terrible price. It was very likely that one side would die, while the other side would overdraft its life force, suffering serious injuries and not have long to live.
The two overlords were aware of this possibility, but at this moment, after the three-legged strange bird discovered that its red lotus had been lost, it had entered a berserk state that had lost all reason. As for the giant tortoise, it was already afraid.
It had been infuriated by Yi Yun in the beginning, but now that it was fighting the three-legged strange bird, it had suffered repeated setbacks. It was completely beaten awake.
Although it was slow, it was still very sensitive to the fear of death. Previously, it had attacked without any regard because it felt that it was the master of the second level of the God Advent Tower. It could easily kill any ants that obstructed it, but now, it realized that something was amiss.
It did not want to die here for no apparent reason. It wanted to perish together with the clearly crazy strange bird.
The giant tortoise began to retreat.
As it retreated, it began to flee down the mountain.
Upon seeing this scene, Yi Yun knew that it was time for him to retreat. With the giant tortoise gone, the crazy three-legged strange bird would probably flip the entire mountain upside down.
Although both the giant tortoise and the three-legged strange bird were severely injured, making it the best opportunity to kill them, Yi Yun weighed his own strength and knew that he was far from being a match for these two super desolate beasts. Even if he were to fight them while they were heavily injured, it would be like striking a rock with an egg.
Unfortunately!
Yi Yun shook his head. He looked at the three-legged strange bird flying in the sky. All the pure Yang Qi in a radius of tens of miles was being used by it. If he could kill this desolate beast that was born in a lava lake and absorbed pure Yang essence day and night, and extract its beast mark, it would greatly improve his "Ten Thousand Beast Totem". It might even allow his Golden Crow Aspect Totem to evolve. However, the three-legged strange bird was too strong, so Yi Yun could only watch.
Yi Yun quietly retreated back to the lava valley. He jumped into the lava once again and floated down along the lava flow.
The lava flow became more turbulent as he went down the mountain. Yi Yun's speed was very fast.
However, at this moment, Yi Yun's hair suddenly stood on end. At that moment, he felt a cold killing intent sweep past his body!
At this moment, Yi Yun was in a burning lava pool, but this killing intent had frozen Yi Yun's blood!
Could this killing intent have come from the three-legged strange bird!?
This thought flashed past Yi Yun's mind. He felt that it was impossible, but the killing intent came from the direction of the three-legged strange bird!
How did the strange bird discover him under such circumstances?
Yi Yun was the only person in the second level of the God Advent Tower. On this mountain, the only thing that could threaten Yi Yun was the three-legged strange bird.
