Chapter 1707: Investigating Kunpeng's Whereabouts
Such a sensible Venerable is really rare; they voluntarily sent him what he wanted, and if he continued to attack, it would seem somewhat unjustified.
"Go on." He waved his hand.
At the same time, he used the mount-summoning function to call He Xianzi, who was cultivating elsewhere, over.
"Big brother, what's up that you called me?"
He Xianzi asked as usual.
Immediately afterward, she was frightened by the terrifying aura beside her!
"Ah! It's a Venerable! Big brother, quickly protect me!"
The white-haired Fairy Maiden cried out in surprise, hid behind Xiao Feng, and like a timid cat only showed half of her head.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao saw He Xianzi suddenly appear, sensed her pure eighth-grade spirit beast bloodline aura, and understood that what Xiao Feng was asking her for was precisely to give to this little guy.
She couldn't help but feel a bit envious, sighing softly: "If only someone could go bully other Venerables for me..."
But she dared not say more, saying: "Then I'll take my leave first."
"Wait!"
At this moment, Xiao Feng suddenly called out to stop her.
"How?"
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao stepped back slightly, a bit afraid he might suddenly attack.
He Xianzi dared not speak at this moment, feeling a bit confused about the situation.
Xiao Feng looked at Zhu Yan Nanming Niao, thought for a moment, and asked: "Senior, do you know where the Spirit Bird Clan's Kunpeng resides?"
"Kunpeng?" Zhu Yan Nanming Niao startled, her body involuntarily shivered.
She hurriedly shook her head: "I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me, I've never seen him!"
Xiao Feng's question was merely to find out the whereabouts of the top-ranked boss among the Four Great Ferocious Beasts.
Because whether it's the Xuan Die Demon Emperor, the Wuxin Dao Venerable, or the Myriad Tribulations Pagoda, none know Kunpeng's whereabouts, giving him no chance to investigate.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao belongs to the Spirit Bird Clan and shares the same group as Kunpeng, so she might know something.
She shook her head violently, trembling all over, obviously terrified.
This reaction makes it too fake to claim she hasn't seen him.
Xiao Feng said calmly: "You don't need to be nervous; I'm just casually inquiring, with no other intent. If you're afraid, we can avoid mentioning his name."
Actually, there's nothing forbidden about mentioning a Venerable's name.
Only the Dao Ancestor has the ability to monitor the universe and instantly know when his true name is called; although Venerables are strong, cursing them in private poses no real danger.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao shook her head wildly, panicking: "Don't, don't... I dare not speak, young man, don't make things difficult for me; he's terribly frightening, among all Venerables in the myriad realms, his strength firmly ranks in the top three, his brutality is absolutely first; even if you lent me a hundred guts, I still wouldn't dare to gossip about him in private!"
"Oh? That scary?"
Both Xiao Feng and He Xianzi were surprised.
Kunpeng's strength ranking among the top three Venerables makes sense; after all, the information we have shows he is the leader of the Four Great Ferocious Spirits, one of the earliest born powerhouses, with strength far surpassing ordinary Venerables, to the point that even Taotie fears him.
But being first in brutality, to the extent that even a Venerable like Zhu Yan Nanming Niao fears to utter his name directly or discuss him privately, seems a bit exaggerated.
Xiao Feng couldn't help but speculate: "Senior... have you been oppressed by him?"
"I... I haven't!" Zhu Yan Nanming Niao quickly retorted.
But her expression gave her away; obviously the answer is the opposite.
Xiao Feng nodded slightly, indicating understanding.
"Tell me his whereabouts, and I'll take revenge for you." He said.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao shook her head repeatedly, refusing: "Impossible; only the Dao Ancestor can defeat him, no matter how strong you are you cannot be his enemy. Young man, let me go, I need to return to cultivation..."
Saying that, she intended to teleport away.
Hum~
The Myriad Tribulations Pagoda had long been prepared; seeing her try to leave, it instantly flashed into appearance, transforming into a hundred-meter-tall tower, emitting waves of majesty, isolating her aura from the outside world, and suppressing her beneath golden light.
"Little miss, don't rush; if you have any questions we can chat slowly. I, too, am an ancient spirit artifact existing since the dawn of creation, can guarantee that Xiao Feng this boy keeps his word and will surely accomplish it."
The voice of the Myriad Tribulations Pagoda echoed around.
"You, you are..."
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao seemed to recognize the origin of the Myriad Tribulations Pagoda.
"Not bad, I am the Myriad Tribulations Pagoda, once constantly following the Taotie Beast God. Old Taotie had this kid slain a few years ago; just consider his realm, strength, and potential—could it still be insufficient to deal with a ferocious spirit?" The Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said some things, persuading Zhu Yan Nanming Niao.
Upon hearing this, she was stunned, opened her mouth, unable to believe it was true.
"Speak out; heaven knows, earth knows, you know, I know—no one else will find out." Xiao Feng said to her.
After saying that, he directly stored He Xianzi away, giving the other party a greater sense of security.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao bit her lip, after a while mustered courage, and whispered: "Alright, then I'll tell you, but you... before killing him, must not say it was I who revealed his whereabouts, otherwise I... would never accept death!"
It seems the situation is rather serious; the consequences of leaking Kunpeng's whereabouts are unimaginable.
Xiao Feng nodded slightly, indicating agreement.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao beckoned to him.
She was still being suppressed by the Myriad Tribulations Pagoda; since she offered no resistance, she couldn't move her position.
Xiao Feng floated close and leaned his ear near.
Zhu Yan Nanming Niao and he were separated by 10 centimeters, and she specially used Divine Sense to transmit sound, as if afraid of being overheard.
She carefully transmitted a location message.
Then she nervously said: "Before you have absolute certainty, you must absolutely not go there, otherwise it will be disastrous!"
Xiao Feng silently memorized the place, replying: "I won't be rash; after I slay the Lord of Stars, I'll then consider this matter."
A Kunpeng among the top three Venerables should not be much inferior to the Lord of Stars.
According to Senior Xuan Die, among the four primordial divine spirits, the Lord of the Earth is the weakest, because the Earth is smallest.
The Lord of Tian Kong ranks third, because Tian Kong is also small.
The Lord of Life is second in strength, estimated at around level 2900, possessing a near-indestructible Dao body, making it extremely hard to kill.
The strongest Lord of the Stars symbolizes the myriad celestial bodies of the universe; a single cell of its body rivals a star, its level is at least 3000, possibly exceeding 3000!
However, since it is not a sentient being of the real world, it cannot enter the Dao Ancestor realm; it can only maintain a Venerable form, continuing to grow beyond the level limit.
Xiao Feng, based on the information he currently holds, estimates that Kun Peng is also a Supreme Venerable around level 3000, stronger than the Burial Heaven Ancient Emperor Di Jiang, and in the same tier as the Lord of the Stars.
As for the other one among the top three, it is unknown; it could be an emperor of another clan, or perhaps from the real world, similar to a War Monkey Demon Venerable‑type cosplay NPC.
To kill Kun Peng, one would likely need a single move capable of instantly slaying a Lord of Life around level 2900.
The higher a Venerable's level, the wider the gap; a level 2800 can crush a level 2700, and a level 2900 can finish off a level 2800 with one move.
And level 3000 might be an existence that a level 2900 Venerable struggles to penetrate.
Xiao Feng knows his realm is lowly; although his strength keeps rising, he has not blindly lost himself.
This Kun Peng malevolent spirit is surely the last of the Four Gods Four Demons Eight Great Battle Bodies that he has set his sights on.
