Chapter 139: Luoxia Peak

Xiong Batian squinted at it, his eyes full of murderous intent: "Spit it out if you have something to say!"

The little Demon Beast shuddered in fear and hurriedly spilled the beans: "This one heard that the nest of those few Wangri Birds is right near Luoxia Peak. Once they've gained benefits, they'll surely go back to show off!"

"Luoxia Peak?"

Xiong Batian pondered for a moment, a flash of greed in his eyes, "That place has quite a few good things... If one could take the opportunity..."

He licked his lips without finishing his sentence, but the meaning was already quite clear.

Seeing this, the little Demon Beast hurriedly nodded and bowed: "Boss Xiong is wise! This one is willing to lead the way!"

Xiong Batian gave a cold snort, which counted as his agreement.

After leaving Linggu, Zhang Yi and his party found a hidden cave to rest temporarily.

The golden light on Zhang Yi's body gradually faded, but the power within him became more solid, and the surging Spirit Energy galloped through his meridians incessantly, like swimming dragons.

At this moment, Zhang Yi's entire body was filled with rampaging energy.

It made him unable to resist the urge to vent it out.

"This time, I really hit the jackpot!"

Zhang Yi felt secretly pleased, "I never expected that Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud to contain such massive energy! I feel like I'm more than ten times stronger than before!"

And that Lingdi within the Trial Land is truly a good place.

He had absorbed and refined almost a third of the Spirit Energy there.

Of course, it hadn't been completely refined yet.

A portion of the Spirit Energy was still rampaging inside his body, but it was much better than before.

"Boss, your current strength has probably reached the Great Divine Beast Third Tier, right?" the Pterosaur asked, his tone full of envy.

Zhang Yi laughed heartily: "You kid really looks down on me; what is a Great Divine Beast Third Tier? I am already at the Eighth Rank now!"

"Eighth Rank???"

Nudi couldn't help but exclaim this time.

She had always been arrogant and aloof; even if Zhang Yi was powerful, she always pretended to be indifferent.

But this time, she truly couldn't hold it in.

Great Divine Beast Eighth Rank! This kid's growth speed is heaven-defying!

Mother Giant Bird was even more overjoyed; she couldn't even help but wipe away tears.

This son of hers is truly damn impressive!

Xiao Pu rubbed against Zhang Yi's side, "My daddy is the most powerful!"

The little Earth Dragon also learned to say what Xiao Pu said, that daddy is powerful, but ended up getting slapped by the Pterosaur, who glared at him, "I am your father!"

Zhang Yi was speechless, "The little guy is just playing, and you take it seriously."

The Pterosaur felt sour inside.

He Lao stood to the side, stroking his beard and smiling.

"This old man has seen many powerhouses, but this is the first time I've seen one as powerful as you, little friend. Your future achievements will be immeasurable."

Zhang Yi felt smug inside.

Seeing Nudi turn her head away, he couldn't help but strut over to her with his tail held high.

"Little girl, your big brother is powerful now, so you'd better listen to me obediently from now on, you know?"

Zhang Yi had wanted to show off in front of Nudi and puff out his chest as a bird.

As it turned out, this girl didn't pay him any mind at all.

She directly stepped down with her bird claw, nearly piercing Zhang Yi's front claw, making Zhang Yi wince in pain.

Meanwhile.

The Elder of the Demon Saint Mansion returned to the Demon Saint General Mansion looking disheveled.

"Trash! A bunch of trash!"

The Demon Saint flew into a rage and smashed the teacup in his hand hard against the ground, "This seat sent you to seize the treasures of Linggu, yet you returned empty-handed! You didn't even enter the Core Land, let alone obtain a few Lingfu for this seat!"

The Elder trembled with fear and hurriedly knelt on the ground to explain: "Demon Saint, please calm your anger! Your subordinate failed in the task; please punish me, Demon Saint!"

"Punish? Do you think punishment can make up for this seat's losses?"

The Demon Saint roared, "Do you know how precious the treasures of Linggu are? If we miss this opportunity, there won't be another!"

The Elder said with a mournful face: "Demon Saint, it's all the fault of those damned Wangri Birds! They were the ones who ruined our plan!"

"Wangri Birds?"

The Demon Saint frowned, "Those few little mongrels dare to ruin this seat's good deeds?"

The Elder hurriedly reported everything that happened at Linggu to the Demon Saint, focusing on describing Zhang Yi's abnormal performance.

"That Wangri Bird named Zhang Yi first refined the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud, and later, he obtained some unknown fortune; the whole bird is like a walking energy body, and his strength has advanced by leaps and bounds! Your subordinate suspects he may have obtained some kind of inheritance from the Core Land..."

After hearing this, the Demon Saint's expression turned terrifyingly gloomy.

"Just a bird, yet it dares to be arrogant in front of this seat!"

He gave a cold snort, "A mere Great Divine Beast Third Tier, this seat doesn't even take it seriously!"

"Pass down the order to send more experts to hunt down those few Wangri Birds, especially that one named Zhang Yi."

"You must capture him and bring him back; this seat wants to study his constitution and physique thoroughly!"

After resting in the cave for a while, Zhang Yi and his party recovered their strength and prepared to leave.

"Boss, where are we going next?"

A Wangri Bird asked.

Zhang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back to Luoxia Peak first; I don't know how my brood of little ones is doing."

The other Wangri Birds all expressed their agreement.

Thus, they left the cave and flew in the direction of Luoxia Peak.

However, they did not know that danger was quietly approaching.

Xiong Batian, leading a group of lackeys, had already been lying in ambush near Luoxia Peak for a long time.

"Hehe, those silly birds don't even know they've already become turtles in a jar, do they?"

A cold, sinister light flickered in Xiong Batian's eyes, "This time, I will repay the humiliation I suffered before a hundredfold!"

Ever since that incident at the Demon Saint Mansion, there hadn't been a single day that Xiong Batian didn't want to kill Zhang Yi.

Meanwhile, the experts dispatched by the Demon Saint Mansion were also rushing toward Luoxia Peak.

A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

When Zhang Yi and his party flew near Luoxia Peak, he keenly sensed something unusual.

Taking a light sniff here, there was a scent of blood, and it felt as if something in the surroundings was watching them from the shadows, making one feel completely uneasy.

"Careful! It's an ambush!"

Zhang Yi let out a low shout and immediately became vigilant.

The other Wangri Birds also soared upward, preparing for battle.

Just then, a group of Demon Beasts rushed out from all directions, surrounding them tightly.

The one leading them was none other than Xiong Batian.

"Hahaha! Zhang Yi, didn't expect this, did you? You have a day like this too!"

Xiong Batian laughed wildly in triumph, his fat, bulky body appearing exceptionally ferocious under the glow of the setting sun, "This time, I will make sure you die without a burial ground!"

Zhang Yi looked at him coldly, without the slightest fear in his eyes: "A defeated opponent, yet you dare to clamor before this seat?"

Xiong Batian's expression changed, and he roared in shame and anger: "Attack! Kill them!"

The surrounding Demon Beasts swarmed forward, pouncing toward Zhang Yi and the others.
