Chapter 1835: Plucking a Bird’s Feathers
Xie Luo was doing his best to gather the corpse of the Blue Eye Peacock . However, he didn’t have a primal chaos bead . Only Life Star experts could condense their own astral space .
As for spatial rings, there was no way ordinary ones could contain this corpse with its ferocious will . Although the Blue Eye Peacock had long since died, it still had a remnant will that made it difficult to force it into anything .
Xie Luo was trying to pull it into his spiritual space, but it was difficult . He had already used a secret technique of the Corrupt path to seal the Blue Eye Peacock’s crystal core, but he was still unable to move it quickly .
Seeing Long Chen was coming to cause trouble, Xie Luo was enraged . “Long Chen, you dare?!”
“Haha, there’s nothing I don’t dare to do in this world . ” Long Chen laughed . Instead of attacking Xie Luo, he jumped onto the Blue Eye Peacock’s back and pulled on one of its giant feathers .
Long Chen directly plucked off the giant feather . That feather looked almost identical to the feather he had obtained before . It was bright and multicolored and still retained a powerful aura .
This feather was also a true feather . Most Blue Eye Peacocks only had a single true feather, but this one’s cultivation base had already reached the peak of the twelfth rank, and it had borne nine true feathers .
It was just that of those nine true feathers, only one was the original true feather . That was the true feather that had accompanied it from the day it had been born .
Inside were its inherited divine abilities, making it also called the inheritance true feather . The other eight true feathers were born later, and those feathers were what this Blue Eye Peacock had been planning on relying on to advance to the thirteenth rank .
According to reason, having already reached the Samsara realm, this Blue Eye Peacock should have reached the realm of being almost undying . Even if it failed its breakthrough, it could undergo nirvanic rebirth . It wouldn’t die here, especially not with its essence blood and original true feather separated from it . That was very strange .
Long Chen didn’t have time to consider those things though . He also didn’t know what these nine true feathers represented, but his intuition told him that these eight feathers on the corpse were definite treasures .
“Bastard!” Xie Luo roared . This corpse’s feathers were very important . A portion of the Blue Eye Peacock’s power resided within its true feathers . Their divine marks were the foundation for its divine abilities .
“Don’t be so emotional . It’s just plucking a few feathers . ”
Long Chen was as quick as lightning, plucking the remaining seven true feathers in an instant . His efficiency sparked disbelief as he gathered the full set .
It was unknown if it was because there was the original true feather in his primal chaos space, but those true feathers didn’t resist when he plucked them . Just like that, they were gathered into his primal chaos space .
Once the eight true feathers were plucked, the Blue Eye Peacock dimmed . Its feathers lost their original splendor . It no longer looked as divine as before, and its aura weakened by over fifty percent .
“Die!”
An ancient halberd came piercing toward Long Chen’s back . True Immortal Jiaoqi had arrived .
To handle this attack, Long Chen’s golden dragon tooth smashed into True Immortal Jiaoqi’s halberd . A terrifying explosion erupted .
Long Chen’s hand split open, and blood poured out . Even having already summoned the Green Dragon Battle Armor, he was still injured and sent flying .
With Long Chen and True Immortal Jiaoqi exchanging a fierce blow, the Blue Eye Peacock’s corpse was blown into the air .
That delighted Xie Luo . Before this, it had been impossible for him to budge the corpse at all . In the air, it could be easily pulled into his spiritual space . However, he was also infuriated because he knew the reason that it was blown into the air was because Long Chen had plucked its eight true feathers .
In other words, having lost its eight true feathers, this corpse’s power had sharply fallen .
Xie Luo formed a hand seal, causing the Blue Eye Peacock to fly to him . Then, a blood-colored gate appeared behind him . That was his spiritual space .
“Don’t be in a rush . Let me help . ”
Long Chen couldn’t snatch the corpse any longer, having been blown back by True Immortal Jiaoqi . So he kindly shot a ball of black flames at it .
BOOM!
The black flames exploded on the Blue Eye Peacock, unleashing a wave that enveloped it .
The berserk energy caused the entire nest to shake . Long Chen was actually using the Black Illusion Dragon Flame .
The eruption of the flame sphere brought with it a wave of powerful Spiritual Strength that caused Xie Luo’s spiritual space to almost collapse .
The shocking thing was that the Blue Eye Peacock was actually ignited by the black flames . Its feathers were burned to ash .
That shocked even Long Chen . Originally, he had just been planning on irritating Xie Luo with this . It had merely been a probing blow .
Who would have thought that the legendary Blue Eye Peacock would be unable to resist the Black Illusion Dragon Flame? Its feathers were all incinerated .
What they were unaware of was that the runes on those feathers were all linked to the nine true feathers . With the nine true feathers gone, the remaining feathers had lost their defensive power .
As for the Black Illusion Dragon Flame, its power was definitely terrifying considering it was ranked second on the Earth Flame Rankings .
“Long Chen, I will skin you alive!” Flames almost spurted out of Xie Luo’s eyes . The Blue Eye Peacock had lost all of its feathers now . Many of its divine abilities had just been lost, and its value had dropped .
“Wow, the Corrupt path’s people are so ungrateful . I kindly plucked your chicken for you, so you can cook it easier, but instead of thanking me, you threaten me! The Corrupt path is truly contemptible . ” Long Chen shook his head .
At this time, True Immortal Jiaoqi was blocking his retreat path . His entire body was shining like gold . He trapped Long Chen between himself and Xie Luo .
He knew that Xie Luo was even angrier than he was . Although he was also enemies with Xie Luo, in comparison, Long Chen was his true target .
If the two of them joined hands, there would definitely be no chance of Long Chen escaping . Capturing Long Chen related to obtaining the Blue Eye Peacock essence blood .
The Blue Eye Peacock looked like a roasted chicken, and Xie Luo looked like he was about to go crazy . The reason he so adamantly wanted this corpse was because he had a method to control it and activate the Blue Eye Peacock’s divine abilities . Although they wouldn’t be as powerful as when it was alive, he was confident in restoring seventy percent of its power .
To have a peak twelfth rank Magical Beast fighting for him, who would dare to resist?
That beautiful dream had been ruined . Even if he did refine the corpse into a puppet now, he wouldn’t be able to fly through the air on it like a divine steed . If he did, he didn’t know how many people would laugh at him .
Xie Luo put the Blue Eye Peacock’s corpse into his spiritual space . Without the feathers, taking it was much easier .
Blood runes began to revolve in Xie Luo’s eyes . A blood-colored figure condensed behind him . The sound of mournful wails shook the room .
That blood-colored figure was sinister and terrifying . Looking carefully, it looked like a conglomeration of millions of lifeforms screaming and struggling in pain . When it appeared, the world also turned blood-colored .
Xie Luo was truly furious . In all his years, no one had dared to treat him like this . His killing intent soared .
“I need Long Chen’s life . If we cooperate, we have to catch him alive, so I can search him for the essence blood . The rest of his belongings will be yours!” shouted True Immortal Jiaoqi . To prevent the off-chance of failure, he chose to join hands with Xie Luo .
“Scram! Who do you think you are to cooperate with me? I’ll kill Long Chen and refine him into a puppet so he’ll be my eternal slave . ”
At the same time as Xie Luo shouted, the millions of devilish ghouls behind him also roared furiously .
BOOM!
Xie Luo’s blood-red saber suddenly pointed toward the sky . As a result, his saber-image struck the barrier around the nest and caused it to quiver intensely . It then hacked down at Long Chen .
Long Chen took a deep breath . His expression was serious . He put away the dragon tooth and took out Evilmoon .
Evilmoon was in slumber and unable to help him . However, it was the weapon he was most used to using . Without a hilt, the dragon teeth weren’t capable of unleashing his power .
Even if Evilmoon was unable to help him, just its hardness and weight were enough .
“Five Star Battle Armor!”
The power of his 108,000 stars erupted . Facing both Xie Luo and True Immortal Jiaoqi, Long Chen couldn’t hold back .
A black saber-image crashed into the blood-red saber-image . The entire nest quivered . Black and red energy appeared at the top of the nest .
The experts within the nest were shaken . Although they didn’t know what was going on, they felt terrifying auras rising .
“There are peak experts fighting! Hurry! Let’s see just who is so terrifying!”
