"Xiao Sha! Destroy it! Get a Ninth Grade Inner Core for Da Huang and Xiao Jin to nourish their bodies. Hahaha! "Xiao Chen saw that the outcome had been decided and began to plan for the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor's Inner Core.
A Ninth Grade Wild Beast's Inner Core was a priceless treasure. If the Lion King were to refine it, the terrifying energy and life essence contained within would be enough to greatly increase the strength of the Lion King. He might even break through to Grade Eight in one fell swoop. This was a great benefit.
"Rumble!" The Fengsha Sword did not reply to Xiao Chen. Instead, it sped up towards the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor. The distance between the two was getting shorter and shorter. The distance between the two was less than two hundred zhang. In a few breaths, the Fengsha Sword would catch up to the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor.
One hundred and fifty zhang!
One hundred and thirty zhang!
One hundred zhang!
…
Five hundred zhang!
Three hundred zhang!
Another three hundred zhang and the Fengsha Sword would catch up to the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor. Perhaps it had already caught up to it. With the Fengsha Sword's current length of more than a hundred zhang, a single slash would be enough to envelop the entire Cockscomb Serpent Emperor.
Hence —
"Rumble!" The Fengsha Sword no longer hesitated. The mountain-like blade slashed down towards the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor with a terrifying might. If such a slash were to hit a mountain that was a few hundred zhang tall, it would be enough to shatter it into pieces and raze it to the ground.
From the looks of it, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor was doomed.
"Hiss!"
"Pu pu!"
At this moment, something strange happened. The Cockscomb Serpent Emperor let out a sharp hiss. A pair of huge wings suddenly sprouted from its back. After the wings grew out, they flapped violently. The Cockscomb Serpent Emperor's flying speed suddenly doubled, allowing it to evade the Fengsha Sword's attack.
"How is this possible?!"
When Xiao Chen saw that the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor had managed to escape from the killing blow of the Fengsha Sword at the very last moment, his face was filled with shock. He stared dumbfoundedly at the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor that had flown away like a streak of rainbow light. It was as if he had seen a ghost, doubting whether what he had seen was real.
"Big brother, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor actually has a way to protect itself. Who would have thought that it would hide a pair of wings within its body? Once released, it can double its speed. As expected, it is a cunning snake spirit." Yellow Dog explained Xiao Chen's shock and confusion. His eyes were amazing, so naturally, he could see things that Xiao Chen could not.
"Wings? Snakes have wings? Is this considered hybridization? " Xiao Chen was slightly stunned, and then he felt a little speechless. Snakes growing wings? This was too ridiculous. It was simply a fantasy story.
"I don't know either." Yellow Dog shook his head and looked at the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor that was flying far away. He continued to say with pity, "The Cockscomb Serpent Emperor has already flown far away. With Xiao Sha's flying speed, he might not be able to catch up unless Xiao Sha uses the Void Traversing Technique. But now, Xiao Sha has already used up his technique. By the time he catches up, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor will have already disappeared. What a pity."
As expected!
"Xiu!"
After the Fengsha Sword missed, by the time it adjusted itself, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor had already disappeared into the distant sky behind the tall mountain. It was unknown where it had hidden itself. The Fengsha Sword could vaguely sense the direction the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor had flown to. It could have chased after the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor, but it did not.
This was because the Fengsha Sword was worried that after it left, terrifying dire beasts might appear in the vicinity of the basin, threatening the lives of Xiao Chen and company. Hence, it decisively gave up on chasing after the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor. Besides, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor would definitely not let the matter rest. It would definitely return to seek revenge on Xiao Chen and company. The Fengsha Sword only needed to wait for the rabbit to come to it.
With regards to the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor's escape, Xiao Chen felt it was a pity. However, he did not blame the Fengsha Sword. If not for the Fengsha Sword, they would have long been dead. Hence, he smiled and said, "Xiao Sha, if the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor escapes, then so be it. Don't take it to heart. We will kill it the next time we meet."
"Big Brother, it was my negligence. I did not sense the arrival of the two Cockscomb Serpents. They concealed their auras perfectly. I will be more careful next time. I will not let the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor launch a sneak attack." The Fengsha Sword said apologetically. Clearly, it felt bad for the Lion King and Golden Roc's injuries.
"Alright, just do your best." Xiao Chen nodded his head solemnly. It was very important to be aware of the arrival of a powerful enemy. If not, they would be ambushed by a powerful enemy. The consequences would be dire. This was a blessing in a misfortune. They might not be able to survive the next time. After all, the Cockscomb Serpent Emperor's attacks, especially its poison attacks, were fatal to Xiao Chen, The Lion King and Golden Roc.
The Fengsha Sword observed the Lion King and discovered that the Lion King was recovering very quickly. Hence, it flew above the unconscious Golden Roc. At this moment, it had shrunk the sword's body and restrained its violent aura, or it would have struck the heavily injured Golden Roc.
The Golden Roc's wounds were almost healed, but it had not woken up yet. It might take several hours or even longer for it to wake up. Fortunately, the Golden Roc's life was no longer in danger. It was only a matter of time before its body fully recovered.
Xiao Chen saw that the Fengsha Sword was very concerned about the Golden Roc. Hence, he comforted him and said, "Xiao Sha, I have already given Xiao Sha a top-grade healing Holy Pill. As long as he still has a breath left in him, the Holy Pill will be able to save his life. So, don't worry."
"Alright, Big Brother." The Fengsha Sword was relieved. Although he had not seen the Golden Roc much, he was still very concerned about the Golden Roc's safety. After all, Little Jin was his fourth brother. As long as they were brothers, he would protect and take care of them with his life.
They were safe for the time being. Xiao Chen felt like he had just survived a disaster. Too many battles and incidents had happened in a short period of two hours. Out of the four brothers, three had come back from the gates of hell. It was truly thrilling and exciting, leaving one with a lingering fear.
Next, the Fengsha Sword was in charge of being on guard. The Lion King lay down to recover its strength. Xiao Chen was in charge of taking care of the unconscious Golden Roc. The division of labor was clear and orderly.
Two hours later, the golden roc woke up. Seeing that his three brothers were fine, he relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. This was because his internal injuries had not completely recovered, especially his broken bones, which had not completely healed. It was not suitable for him to move, and it was even more unsuitable for him to fly, otherwise, his injuries would worsen.
Seeing that the Golden Roc was no longer in danger, Xiao Chen was completely relieved. He scuttled into the forest and found the corpse of the Chicken Comb Snake King. He took out the Chicken Comb Snake King's inner core.
The Chicken Comb Snake King was an eighth-grade dire beast. Its inner core was eighth-grade. It was the main target that Xiao Chen was searching for in the Great Wilderness. With the inner core of an eighth-grade dire beast, he could undergo the first evolution of the Demonification God Bestowment.
