Chapter 858: Chapter 326: Unexpected Delight
The next moment.
His facial features and temperament transformed to resemble the Third Elder of the Yinan Tribe.
.....
Taro Mountain.
At the mountainside, rocks rolled down.
Suddenly, a Six-winged Cangming Beast flapped its wings and soared into the sky from the collapsed cave, fleeing eastwards in panic. At this moment, a long gash had been torn in its lower body by a sharp weapon, blood gushing out constantly. Behind it, two forces of Purple Mansion pressure emerged from the collapsed cave mansion in pursuit.
The two appeared somewhat disheveled.
Especially the young man dressed in golden attire, whose arm was severed at the root. Staring at the receding figure of the Six-winged Cangming Beast, he grit his teeth and said:
"Seventh Uncle, leave me and quickly capture that beast!"
Otherwise.
His injury would be in vain.
To hunt this Tier Three Middle-Stage Six-winged Cangming Beast, they had used a Tier Three Array. Yet, unexpectedly, the Six-winged Cangming Beast was extremely cunning, feigning death. If not for his quick reaction at the time, his life would have been in jeopardy.
Seventh Elder Yu Xiangsang seemed hesitant:
"Crown Prince, this Six-winged Cangming Beast is injured and won’t escape far. It’s better that I first escort you back to the tribe. The Chieftain had instructed, currently, it’s unsettled outside. The Celestial Toad Tribe has already been annihilated by the Great Zhou Cultivators, we..."
Before he could finish speaking.
He was impatiently interrupted by the Fish Eagle Prince raising his hand:
"Seventh Uncle, the Luo Family is now stationed in the Celestial Toad Tribe, thousands of miles away. How could we run into them here? As for the subordinate noble families of the Luo Family, they’re nothing but riffraff. If they encounter us, they’re the ones who’ll evade. Hurry, the Demon Pill of the Six-winged Cangming Beast can let me break through directly to the Third-Layer of the Purple Mansion. Don’t let Second Brother’s group snatch it away."
Although the Fish Eagle Prince had already been enfeoffed.
The Chieftain’s sons were not limited to him alone. Especially after Second Brother also broke through to the Purple Mansion, his previously unassailable position as Crown Prince had shown worrying signs in recent years.
"Crown Prince, then stay put while I return as quickly as possible."
"Hurry, hurry!"
The Fish Eagle Prince waved his hand repeatedly.
Yu Xiangsang maneuvered the Purple Vine Gourd, swiftly pursuing the Six-winged Cangming Beast.
The Six-winged Cangming Beast was known for its escape speed, but due to its injuries and incessant bleeding, it was slowing down and soon caught up by Yu Xiangsang:
"Chirp!"
Seeing it couldn’t escape.
The Six-winged Cangming Beast also aroused its ferocity, turned around, and flapped its six wings simultaneously, instantly forming a whirlwind. The whirlwind quivered slightly, then transformed into a ten-zhang long saber, slashing towards Yu Xiangsang in mid-air.
"Hmph, the little beast knows to strike first too."
Yu Xiangsang sneered, pointed at the Purple Vine Gourd, and the sound of air piercing rang out as Purple Vines emerged, like spiritual snakes, actively meeting the saber.
Boom!
The two collided together.
A terrifying Spiritual Pressure spread outwards.
The saber shattered on impact.
The Purple Vines continued towards the Six-winged Cangming Beast, enfolding it tightly. The Six-winged Cangming Beast cried out in a strange voice, apparently not expecting Yu Xiangsang’s attack to be so strong, hurriedly flapping its wings, trying to dodge. However, the Purple Vines were too fast; with a few swift sounds of air piercing, they blocked its path. Simultaneously, under Yu Xiangsang’s incantation gesture,
in no time.
The Six-winged Cangming Beast was tightly entwined by the Purple Vines.
"Roar"
An angry yet unwilling wail was let out by the Six-winged Cangming Beast.
Upon seeing this, Yu Xiangsang sneered:
"Trying the same trick again, you think I’ll fall for it, dream on!"
As he spoke.
His hand seals changed.
And he pointed at the Purple Vine Gourd, from which a stream of purple spirit light emerged, slightly quivering. A shower of petals descended, trembling like arrows released from a bow, shooting rapidly towards the Six-winged Cangming Beast:
"Roar!"
Seeing that Yu Xiangsang did not approach.
The sadness in the Six-winged Cangming Beast’s eyes disappeared, replaced by a ferocious intent. Its mouth opened, the Demon Pill shot forth, accompanied by its breath blown onto the Demon Pill:
"Boom!"
A whirlwind condensed in an instant.
The sweeping petals were caught in it, shattering into powder with several explosive sounds. Meanwhile, a green glow flashed from the Demon Pill, landing on the resilient Purple Vines entwined around it, causing them to melt away like snow in early winter.
"Damn beast!"
Even the Demon Pill was sacrificed in battle.
It was clear it’d stake its life.
If the Demon Pill got damaged, the Six-winged Cangming Beast’s life too would be unsustainable. Moreover, the Demon Pill was the most precious part of the Six-winged Cangming Beast. Without processing, direct refining by an early-stage Purple Mansion cultivator often improved one’s cultivation by a level, which was the purpose of Yu Xiangsang and his group:
"Damn it!"
The Six-winged Cangming Beast clearly realized what they intended to gain from it.
By sacrificing the Demon Pill.
Not only did it boost its power greatly, but it also made Yu Xiangsang hesitate a bit more before taking action. A sly, human-like gleam of success flashed in the Six-winged Cangming Beast’s eyes as it flapped its wings, attempting to flee once again.
"Damn beast, dreaming of escape!"
Yu Xiangsang knew delay could breed changes.
Undoubtedly what concerned him the most was leaving the injured Crown Prince alone with any unforeseen events, as any harm to the Crown Prince would mean their entire faction would lose utterly to the group of the second son.
He bit his lip firmly.
With great reluctance, he slapped his storage bag, a flash of dawn light appeared, and a pill bottle with grid-like circular patterns was suddenly in his hand. He popped a green Spirit Pill into his mouth, then flicked his index finger.
The pill bottle transformed into a streak of rainbow light, shooting straight towards the Six-winged Cangming Beast.
The Six-winged Cangming Beast possessed some intelligence, yet having never interacted with humans, it had no understanding of the risk involved. Immediately, it opened its mouth, and a Wind Blade slashed with a tearing sound, cutting directly through the pill bottle.
