Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven
#1843 - Bird nest
Jun Wuxie sprinted through the vast mountain forest, pursued relentlessly by ferocious beasts and birds of prey. Their attacks left a trail of destruction, shattering rocks and felling trees along the way.
Yet, they couldn't catch up.
Gradually, the other beasts and birds of prey fell behind, their perception of him growing increasingly faint.
Only the ferocious bird with blade-like wings remained in close pursuit, maintaining a constant distance, impossible to shake off.
This bird was exceptionally fast, far surpassing the others, making it difficult to escape.
Jun Wuxie ignored it, deliberately choosing terrain with complex features, such as areas with numerous peaks.
In such areas, the pursuing bird's massive body would be obscured by the peaks, potentially causing it to vanish from the sight of the creatures behind, preventing them from pinpointing his location based on the bird's position.
As the pursuing beasts fell further and further behind, the ferocious bird also slowed down appropriately, increasing the distance.
Simultaneously, it emitted a strange, sharp screech.
Hearing this sound, he knew it was signaling the other beasts and birds of prey.
"You are quite clever!"
Jun Wuxie abruptly stopped, and the chaotic golden blood energy separated from his body, leaving Yue Yao, Lingfei, and the others behind.
He spun around, instantly unleashing his maximum speed, charging towards the ferocious bird, and unleashing the Chaotic Creation Emperor Fist.
Within his body, the Taiji Eight Trigrams Star Sea, Primordial Disassembly, and the effects of the 'Fight' Word Incantation were all activated, stacking the Three Thousand叠 Kill Technique to its limit.
The terrifying killing intent emanating from the fist imprint caused even the ferocious bird to feel terrified.
Almost simultaneously, mysterious runes lit up on the bird's metallic wings. It flapped its wings violently, unleashing a barrage of sword-like killing energy that blanketed the sky, impacting the fist imprint.
After launching the attack, it soared upwards, attempting to temporarily avoid the brunt of the force.
A deafening boom erupted, accompanied by a metallic tremor.
The ferocious bird's attack was completely disintegrated by the fist imprint, but Jun Wuxie had already locked onto it, and the fist imprint followed, striking towards the heavens.
The speed was too great, and the ferocious bird could no longer dodge.
It let out an angry cry, its metallic wings suddenly folding inwards, embracing itself as if they were arms.
On those wings, every feather lit up with mysterious runes, forming a thick shield of law energy.
With a deafening boom, the fist imprint, carrying the ancient chaotic universe and earth-shattering power, caused cracks to spread across the bird's shield, instantly shattering it.
Clang!
The fist imprint heavily slammed into the ferocious bird's metallic wings protecting its body, erupting with a piercing metallic sound, as if striking divine iron, sending sparks flying.
The brilliant runes on the wings instantly dimmed, and a large number of runic law traces shattered and were obliterated.
The wings, after resisting for a moment and dissipating a large portion of the power, were still forcibly torn open by the fist imprint, exposing the ferocious bird's body, causing the fist imprint to slam into its flesh.
The ferocious bird cried out in pain, its body flying backwards. The area struck was a bloody mess, its internal organs shattered, and blood trickled from its mouth.
It wanted to quickly adjust its state and stabilize its body to better deal with the danger.
But Jun Wuxie didn't give it a chance, chasing after it, almost sticking to its massive body, and unleashing the Chaotic Creation Emperor Fist once again.
The ferocious bird cried out angrily, constantly using its wings to protect its body, causing the metallic feathers on its wings to constantly shatter, nearly turning it into a plucked bird.
Cracks appeared on its tough body, almost causing it to fall apart.
This made it terrified and furious.
It knew it couldn't defeat this human on its own, so after realizing that the beasts behind had fallen far behind, it maintained a greater distance and sent out a signal.
It never expected that the human it was chasing would suddenly turn around and launch a fierce attack, catching it off guard.
Now it was being suppressed and beaten, only able to defend passively, unable to find any opportunity to counterattack. The opponent's attacks were too dense, leaving no room to exploit.
Just then, in the distant mountain forest, at the end of the line of sight, the massive figures of other Primordial Beginning Era beasts appeared, and other birds of prey appeared in the sky.
The ferocious bird being suppressed instantly saw hope, felt relieved, and hurriedly cried out.
Jun Wuxie's eyes turned cold. He glanced into the distance and decisively gave up on continuing the attack, turning to leave.
He instantly returned to Lingfei and the others.
This time, he didn't use the blood energy sphere, but instead opened the Eight Nine Mysterious Palace, directly guiding them inside.
Immediately, he vanished like lightning into the vast mountain forest with complex terrain.
After rushing out a distance, he used the Minor Space Art, concealing his aura, perfectly hiding himself, and sneaking through the void without exposing himself.
The injured ferocious bird pursued, but suddenly lost sight of its target, unable to sense its aura, as if it had disappeared into thin air, leaving it stunned.
Soon, the other birds of prey and beasts arrived.
"What's going on? Where is the human?"
These Primordial Beginning Era beasts and birds of prey all had cold eyes.
They actually lost him under their noses!
"It doesn't matter. As long as he's on this island, he can't escape!"
"No, he can't escape as long as he's on this planet!"
The cold voices of the Primordial Beginning Era Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and Eight-Armed Evil Dragon came from afar.
"Those humans possess powerful ancient blood, which is a tonic for us."
"Hmm, we've decided on that man and the woman who hasn't made a move yet. The others are yours."
The Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast began to allocate.
"Whoever catches them, they are whose blood food. May the best win!"
"There are only a few of them, and you want to divide two? You're really daydreaming!"
"You ran to our island, do you want to turn this place into your home field?"
"Alright, stop arguing."
"Now the traces of those humans have disappeared, and their aura is gone. They must have used some kind of mysterious concealment technique."
"The island is vast. If we search aimlessly, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"We can only issue orders and let the other creatures on the island help us pay attention to their whereabouts."
"As for us, we'll go back and wait for news."
… …
At this time, Jun Wuxie did not go far. He was nearby, quietly watching those beasts and birds of prey, listening to everything they discussed.
This was all within his expectations.
This island was tens of thousands of miles long and hundreds of thousands of miles wide. For speed that can only reach around ten times the speed of sound at most, it was indeed vast.
Having lost the locked-on aura, it was almost impossible to track him.
Therefore, they could only mobilize the other creatures on the island to discover his whereabouts.
"That's all we can do. However, we are sea creatures. According to this, wouldn't the final benefits be taken by you?"
The Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon had cold eyes.
"Who can guarantee that those humans won't enter the sea, or won't leave this island from the sea?"
"Therefore, we need the creatures in your sea area to pay attention to their whereabouts."
"When you catch them, we will definitely notify the two of you to discuss how to divide this blood food. We will never swallow it alone. You can rest assured."
The ferocious bird that was almost torn apart by Jun Wuxie said.
It was a descendant of the Primordial Beginning Era Sword-Winged Bird. Its pair of wings were extremely sharp, and its feathers were like sword bodies, said to be able to tear apart the heavens and earth and cleave the yin and yang poles.
The Sword-Winged Bird ranked eleventh among the Primordial Beginning Era beasts, and its bloodline was quite powerful.
"Remember your promise. If you dare to deceive us, the consequences will be severe!"
The Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon said coldly, issuing a warning.
In fact, when they heard the Sword-Winged Bird say this, and when the other races on the island silently agreed, they believed it.
After all, these two races were extremely powerful on this entire planet, and could be said to have firmly established themselves as overlords.
There were still some races that were not much weaker than them, but there was still a gap after all. How dare they play tricks on them?
"Don't worry, you two. Just act according to the plan and wait for good news after you return."
"Everyone, I'll go first. When we hunt those humans, we'll gather again!"
The Primordial Beginning Era Sword-Winged Bird flapped its wings and left.
However, the feathers on its wings were severely damaged, looking very ridiculous, and leaking air when flapping.
However, this did not affect its flight, only its speed.
Its injuries had already healed, but the feathers had not grown back in time.
The feathers that were knocked off while resisting attacks needed to be regrown using secret methods after it returned.
Of course, it was not impossible to force them to grow back now, but it would consume life essence and a little bit of origin, which was completely unnecessary.
Several other birds of prey were traveling with the Sword-Winged Bird, apparently their territories were in the same direction.
Jun Wuxie secretly released four Primordial Origin Incarnations, two of which quietly followed the Sword-Winged Bird and other birds of prey, while the main body remained hidden.
Just then, the Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon also turned and left.
Two Primordial Incarnations, hidden by the Minor Space Art, quietly followed behind them.
The Minor Space Art had excellent concealment effects, coupled with Jun Wuxie's own powerful soul level, making both the main body and the Primordial Incarnations perfectly hidden.
Along the way, neither the Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon returning to the sea, nor the Sword-Winged Bird and other birds of prey, noticed anything.
After following for a long time, two Primordial Incarnations entered the sea, plunged into the seabed, and began to track behind the Eight-Headed Sea Demon Beast and the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon.
After the two great beasts separated, the Primordial Incarnations also separated to track them.
On the island, the Sword-Winged Bird and other birds of prey were still flying in the same direction.
Until Jun Wuxie followed them for about half a day, they finally began to separate.
Jun Wuxie's true body still followed the Sword-Winged Bird, while the two great Primordial Avatars followed the Ancestral Eagle and the Thunderous Bird, respectively.
Long Xi and Shu Yuan, who saw all of this through the gate opened by the Eight Nine Profound Palace, were puzzled.
In fact, Yue Yao and Ling Fei were also a little curious.
They knew he must have a plan, but they didn't know what he was going to do.
Long Xi and Shu Yuan were full of doubts and couldn't understand his actions at all.
"Young Master Jun, you and your avatars are following different fierce beasts and birds, could it be that you want to defeat them one by one?
But they are now on their way back to their nests.
Their nests must contain more than just themselves, probably other members of their kind as well."
Long Xi was very puzzled and couldn't figure out the reason for tracking the fierce birds and beasts.
Wasn't that just getting closer and closer to danger?
"You'll know soon enough."
Jun Wuxie didn't explain, just quietly followed, all the way to the target's territory, arriving near its nest.
The Sword-Winged Bird's territory was a vast mountain range, filled with countless strange peaks.
Its nest was on the middlemost of these strange peaks, halfway up the mountain, where there was a huge cave emitting a powerful aura.
Nearby, there were also several powerful auras lurking.
Obviously, they were a small family, small in number, but strong in individual power.
The Sword-Winged Bird landed in front of the cave, and another female Sword-Winged Bird quickly came out, obviously its mate.
They conversed, using the common language of all races from the Primordial Era.
Jun Wuxie naturally understood what they were saying.
The bald Sword-Winged Bird's mate was very surprised to see its disheveled and weakened state, asking it what happened and how it had become like this, its wings almost bare.
The bald Sword-Winged Bird cursed and said that a human with powerful ancient blood had come to the island, and in the process of fighting the human, it encountered other fierce beasts snatching blood food. In the fierce battle, it was besieged by a group of fierce beasts and accidentally had its feathers plucked.
It angrily told its mate that if it hadn't been besieged by a group of fierce beasts, it would have been able to kill any one of those guys in just a few rounds in a one-on-one fight.
Upon hearing this, its mate, who knew it well, couldn't help but roll its eyes at the bald Sword-Winged Bird.
"What's with that look? Quickly pass on the order that once human traces are discovered, they should immediately inform us.
Well, I'm going to restore my sword feathers.
It infuriates me!"
The bald Sword-Winged Bird cursed and entered the nest.
Its mate then flew to the top of the mountain, where it used a secret method to issue orders to all the creatures on the island that they had notified.
Jun Wuxie hid near the nest, carefully sensing and observing the area, and finally determined the auras hidden within several of the mountain peaks.
The Sword-Winged Bird clan was small in number, only six in total, with four in a state of slumber, presumably their parents and ancestors.
The environment of this island was quite special, and it was clear that it could not allow them to inherit and reproduce normally, which led to their extremely small number.
Otherwise, how could there only be these six after so many years?
In the cave nest in front of him, many life fluctuations could be vaguely sensed.
However, those life auras definitely did not come from the Sword-Winged Birds, because the life fluctuations were faint and indistinct.
The female Sword-Winged Bird was still using a secret method on the mountain peak.
Jun Wuxie looked at it and quietly sneaked into the cave, all the way to the Sword-Winged Bird's nest.
At the deepest part of the cave, the area was relatively spacious, otherwise it would be difficult to accommodate the huge bodies of the Sword-Winged Birds.
In a corner of the cave's depths, the ground was covered with soft dry grass, and the things piled on it flowed with a cold metallic luster, like oval metal balls the size of washbasins, covered with patterns.
Of course, those were definitely not metal balls.
Those were Sword-Winged Bird eggs, an astonishing number, at least several hundred!
Although they looked big, in fact, relative to their size, the bird eggs were really too small.
The faint life fluctuations were transmitted from those metallic-lustered Sword-Winged Bird eggs.
"No wonder their numbers are so small, it turns out that it is very difficult to nurture complete offspring..."
At this moment, Jun Wuxie understood everything.
Because of the special environment here, it was difficult for the Sword-Winged Bird eggs to hatch into chicks, and the life fluctuations inside had always been unstable.
Judging from these eggs, many of them came from extremely ancient times, and you could feel the precipitation of the years they had experienced.
These eggs had been preserved by them from a long time ago, but to this day, they had not been able to nurture complete life, unable to hatch chicks.
The current six Sword-Winged Birds should be all the Sword-Winged Birds that had hatched since ancient times, and the other Sword-Winged Birds had died of old age over the years.
After all, that era was too far away from the present, and creatures in the demigod realm could not survive such a long time.
Among the hundreds of Sword-Winged Bird eggs, there were several that did not have any life fluctuations and could not nurture life.
However, the life essence and energy contained within were extremely vast.
"Young Master Jun, you followed the Sword-Winged Bird here, it wouldn't be just to rob a bird's nest, would it?"
Long Xi was stunned when she saw the bird eggs in the nest. There were so many, how long had they been accumulating?
The stronger the bloodline of a fierce bird or beast, the lower the chance of laying eggs or giving birth.
Especially for this kind of creature, because their bloodline is very pure, and the bloodline of their offspring is also close to pure blood, so the reproduction rate is very low.
Many races in the world seem to be large in scale, because there are too many side branches in the race, and most of their bloodlines are mottled, so they can reproduce in large numbers.
Even within those races, the number of pure direct bloodlines is very small.
"What do you mean by robbing a bird's nest? Long Xi, your wording is very problematic. I'm just recovering energy, you know?
Isn't it a waste of resources to leave those eggs that have no life fluctuations and cannot nurture life here?
I'm giving you a chance to reorganize your language, speak properly."
Long Xi couldn't help but purse her lips and smile when she heard this.
At this time, Jun Wuxie took out a large number of stones from the Eight Nine Profound Palace and used the Eight Nine Profound Technique to turn them into Sword-Winged Bird eggs.
He looked at the bald Sword-Winged Bird in the distance using a secret method to cultivate its wing feathers, and replaced those bird eggs with very clever methods.
He put the real bird eggs into the Eight Nine Profound Palace, and asked Yue Yao to seal all the life-nurturing bird eggs to avoid causing damage to them in a world lacking true attributes.
Those were Sword-Winged Bird eggs.
Although these eggs had not hatched into chicks to this day, as long as their life fluctuations were locked, there was a possibility of hatching chicks in the future.
Just imagine, what would it be like to have an army of Sword-Winged Birds?
Even in the Primordial Era, the number of pure-blooded Sword-Winged Birds was not large.
Because the competition in that era was relatively fierce, with Primordial and Desolate beasts rampant and constantly fighting each other, not every Sword-Winged Bird could live forever.
Jun Wuxie had just replaced the bird eggs when the bald Sword-Winged Bird seemed to sense something, opened its eyes, glanced at the corner where the bird eggs were piled up, and couldn't help but reveal a look of doubt in its eyes.
Soon, it closed its eyes again and lay there using a secret method.
At this time, Jun Wuxie, fully loaded and feeling happy, quietly walked towards the outside of the cave.
As a result, he ran into the female Sword-Winged Bird returning from the top of the mountain.
Jun Wuxie suddenly stopped, trying to restrain his aura and prevent any fluctuations from being transmitted.
The female Sword-Winged Bird seemed to sense something and looked around the cave in surprise, searching and sensing everywhere. In the end, she didn't find anything unusual and continued towards the nest in the depths of the cave.
Jun Wuxie continued to walk towards the outside of the cave, and after arriving at the cave entrance, he immediately accelerated and went away.
At the same time, the bald Sword-Winged Bird, which had closed its eyes and used a secret method, still felt that something was not quite right.
It opened its eyes again and looked at the pile of bird eggs, then got up and came to the bird eggs.
At this time, its mate, the female Sword-Winged Bird, came in and, seeing it like this, also came to the bird eggs and asked it why it was looking at these eggs.
The bald Sword-Winged Bird's intuition became increasingly bad, and a piece of law energy suddenly rushed out of its body, scattering like light rain on the bird eggs piled in front of it.
At this moment, the bird eggs, which were originally flowing with metallic luster, underwent a drastic change under its law energy.
Almost at the same time, the Sword-Winged Bird couple let out a heart-wrenching, sharp cry.
The sound sounded miserable, angry, and full of violence and panic.
