Chapter 1102 - 1102 Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tiger
1102 Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tiger
Half an hour later, Chu Nan stopped in the depths of a mountain range about 600 kilometers northwest of the place where he had eaten roasted meat with Hasol.
He had followed the trajectory of Hasol’s pursuit of this Four-Winged Golden Crow. Because he had to check the traces left behind by Hasol and the Four-Winged Golden Crow, he did not fly fast.
Although the traces were not deep because of a period of time, with his powerful data ability and sharp observation of his surroundings, as well as his powerful perception, he still tracked them to this mountain range.
Compared to the hilly area they were in earlier, the altitude here was higher and the mountain peak was higher. Currently, the highest mountain peak in Chu Nan’s vision was at least 2,000 meters away from the ground. The peak towered into the clouds and was extremely dangerous.
Chu Nan’s gaze landed on this mountain peak.
The Four-Winged Golden Crow was an A-rank beast and was far stronger than ordinary beasts. Generally speaking, the choice of residence was even more demanding than ordinary beasts. It had always liked to live on the most dangerous mountain peak.
Moreover, the characteristics of the Four-Winged Golden Crow were to be connected to the lightning of the natural world, so living between the clouds was the most suitable environment for them.
After confirming his target, Chu Nan immediately flew towards the tallest mountain.
Before he could completely approach, he sensed intense and strange spatial energy fluctuations coming from the space ahead.
The clouds inserted by the mountain peak continuously surged like an angry sea, and there was a faint lightning flash.
Under such circumstances, such frequent flickering lightning was naturally not a normal natural phenomenon. Coupled with the characteristics of the Four-Winged Golden Crow, it was obvious that a Four-Winged Golden Crow was displaying its power in the clouds.
“The ‘Pan Milky Way Ferocious Beast Encyclopedia’ says that the Four-Winged Golden Crow is an extremely rare social animal among A-rank ferocious beasts. It seems that it’s true. This is indeed not only the one killed by Hasol just now. However, could it be that someone is fighting the Four-Winged Golden Crow now?”
After thinking for a moment, Chu Nan’s figure flashed and he rose again before entering the clouds above his head.
After carefully hiding his body in the clouds and flying in the direction of the lightning, Chu Nan quickly arrived at the mountain.
Looking up through the clouds, he saw that three Four-Winged Golden Crows were attacking a figure at the same time. Lightning filled the air and almost enveloped the entire sky, illuminating the sky above the clouds until it was pale.
“Eh? Which guy is so courting death?” Chu Nan focused his gaze and quickly distinguished that the person fighting with the three Four-Winged Golden Crows was Hasol, who had just broken up with him and left.
When he saw him, Chu Nan could not help but laugh.
“Does this guy really think that the Four-Winged Golden Crow is easy to bully just because he killed one?”
Chu Nan continued to hide in the clouds and quietly watched Hasol fight the three Four-Winged Golden Crows. He did not have the intention to go out and help.
Although the personality that Hasol had displayed just now was very straightforward and made him have a good impression of him, the two of them were far from becoming friends. On the contrary, they were still competitors in the Garden Hunting Assembly.
If Hasol was injured by these three Four-Winged Golden Crows and was forced to retreat, Chu Nan would only be happy to see it.
Moreover, he was very curious about Hasol’s cultivation method. Now, he could see how he used it in such a dangerous situation.
It seemed that Hasol should have been fighting the three Four-Winged Golden Crows for a while. Now that his strength had been completely revealed, the scarlet aura spread greatly and almost enveloped the entire sky. Even Chu Nan, who was hiding in the clouds, was affected and he could smell a weak bloody aura.
Under the envelopment of his terrifying blood-colored aura, the lightning emitted by the three Four-Winged Golden Crows seemed to have lost most of its power. They could only see the light flickering continuously, but they could not really hit Hasol.
However, it could not be said that Hasol had already gained the upper hand. On the contrary, Chu Nan could tell that he had actually barely dealt with it. He could only completely release his aura without holding back to block the defense of the three Four-Winged Golden Crows.
Otherwise, if he was at ease, there was no need for him to expand the space affected by his cultivation method to such a large area. This would only increase the consumption of his Internal Breath.
If it was not to ensure that they could defeat the enemy, generally speaking, no martial artist would do this.
Now, it was obvious that Hasol was only barely defending.
After all, the Four-Winged Golden Crow was an A-rank beast. Every adult Four-Winged Golden Crow had the powerful strength to contend with a second-stage Heaven Control Martial Artist. Now that the three of them were together, even if Hasol’s strength was extremely outstanding, he was a little unable to deal with them.
However, Hasol looked to have extremely rich combat experience and seemed to be extremely good at fighting all kinds of ferocious beasts. Therefore, although he looked a little forced, he could still persist and did not look dangerous.
Chu Nan watched patiently for a while before the aura around Hasol suddenly changed. From the blood-red color earlier, it instantly became denser and had already turned dark red. The blood smell Chu Nan smelled immediately became more obvious and thick. However, he could not help but pinch his nose and frown.
The three Four-Winged Golden Crows were also affected at the same time and their movements slowed down.
However, this delay gave Hasol a chance.
His figure flashed and he instantly flew to one of the Four-Winged Golden Crows. Then, he completely ignored the attacks of the three Four-Winged Golden Crows and threw a punch at its head.
Slap!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
While the head of the Four-Winged Golden Crow was shattered by Hasol, countless bolts of lightning firmly struck his body.
Hasol’s body instantly turned black, but he forcefully twisted his body at such a critical moment and dodged the attacks of the remaining two Four-Winged Golden Crows. His figure unfolded and his speed increased. He changed direction and actually flew higher into the sky at high speed.
Chu Nan instantly understood his thoughts.
Clearly, Hasol had already suffered considerable injuries in the battle just now. He determined that if he continued to stay on the surface of the planet, he might be attacked by other participants at any time, so he planned to use the special characteristics of his Heaven Control expert to fly into space and temporarily hide for a period of time.
After all, there were only a few Heaven Control experts among the participants. Moreover, the space was wider. If he only wanted to find a random place to hide and recover, it was impossible for anyone to find him without deliberately paying attention.
However, just as Hasol had already shaken off the two Four-Winged Golden Crows chasing after him and was about to pass through the higher atmosphere above, a figure suddenly landed from above and actually pounced at him before throwing a punch.
Hasol was clearly shocked to be suddenly ambushed like this, but his reaction was strange. After forcefully receiving this punch, his body spun and drew an arc. He chose another direction to penetrate the atmosphere and entered the vast sky above in the blink of an eye.
The figure who suddenly appeared to ambush him had no intention of letting Hasol go. He only hesitated for a moment before chasing after him.
A moment later, the two of them disappeared above the atmosphere. Clearly, the next battle would be in the vast space.
“Heh, there are still hidden dragons and crouching tigers here. A Heaven Control expert can casually appear.”
Seeing that the two of them had completely disappeared, Chu Nan flew out of the clouds. He had a thought and his gaze landed on the remaining two Four-Winged Golden Crows who were flying back because they had failed to pursue Hasol.
