“How is that even possible—”
“That’s impossible! It is impossible for its wings to be in such good condition.” Liu Xia and Yu Tonghai were astonished. When Shengong Tu shot the Six Legged Bladelike Chi, they watched it with their own eyes. However, now, there wasn’t even a wound on the Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s wings.
The wings attached to its chest appeared clean without any splits, not to mention wounds.
“The Grass of Immortality is a first-class Spiritual Treasure in this world. The Grass of Immortality could revive someone who has just died but whose Spirit has not dissipated. The effect of this medicine is no joke.” Teng Qingshan felt extremely excited. This wasn’t the first time he used the Grass of Immortality. However, the effect of the medicine was still incredible.
“Bladelike Chi, let’s go!”
Teng Qingshan hastily pointed at the direction. The Six Legged Bladelike Chi roared proudly as it flapped its two wings and arched far away rapidly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Shengong Tu, Yu Tonghai, and Liu Xia leaped onto the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon. “Quick, chase after them!” Yu Tonghai shouted anxiously while Liu Xia emitted deep roars. The Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon immediately transformed into a dazzling, swirling beam and went after Teng Qingshan, drawing closer every moment.
The Six-Eared Earth-Drilling Mouse also dashed in the forest.
“They are really fast.” Teng Qingshan didn’t have to look back, as he could distinctly sense the four auras of the Emptiness Realm behind him. They were catching up.
Whew~~ The Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s wings shook and suddenly made a sharp turn for a distance of several dozen Zhang. In order to make such sharp turns while flying so rapidly, the flying Emptiness Realm Demonic Beast must have a certain degree of agility. The Wind Splitting Dragon flapped its wings and also made a sharp turn.
Although it made the turn slightly slower than the Bladelike Chi, it did display the ability of the fastest flying Emptiness Realm Demonic Beast in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
“This is bad,” Teng Qingshan commented.
Sitting on the Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s back, Teng Qingshan’s facial expression changed slightly as he thought to himself, ” The speed of the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon is really too fast. In terms of linear speed, the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon is much faster. Even if the Bladelike Chi was in the lead, the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon could still catch up fairly quickly. Even if the Bladelike Chi suddenly changed its direction, the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon could also change its direction very quickly. Although it makes sharp turns slightly slower than the Bladelike Chi, the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon could then catch up again within the time of one breath.”
“Moreover—
“Once the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon is close enough, Shengong Tu, who is standing on the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon’s back, will be able to shoot the Void Piercing Arrow.” Teng Qingshan knew well how terrifying the Void Piercing Arrow was. Although he had comprehended the Dao of Death and had become much stronger, he would still be blasted away by the Void Piercing Arrow even if he defended himself with the Splitting Mountain Axe!
Once he was struck away, the Emptiness Realm Experts would attack the Bladelike Chi from all sides and the Bladelike Chi would be in a desperate situation.
“What should we do? What should we do?” Teng Qingshan thought anxiously.
Whew~~Whew~~
The Six Legged Bladelike Chi knew well of the danger. It didn’t dare to fly in a straight line. It could only make a sudden change in direction whenever the distance between the two decreased to fifty or sixty Zhang. It twisted and turned repeatedly or suddenly changed from a horizontal direction to a vertical direction. By relying on its agility, the Six Legged Bladelike Chi managed to maintain the distance.
“Oh, no.” Teng Qingshan could sense that Shengong Tu, who stood on the back of the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon, had placed his arrow and drawn his bow. The arrow in his hand was the most daunting Void Piercing Arrow.
“No matter how nimble the Six Legged Bladelike Chi is, it can only maintain a distance of 50-60 Zhang.” Teng Qingshan was so worried as he thought to himself, ” To Shengong Tu, the distance of 50-60 Zhang is close enough for him to perform his terrifying archery skills. Sigh… I just need the Six Legged Bladelike Chi to fly for a little bit more and we will be over 34 Li away from the Six-Eared Earth-Drilling Mouse.”
The only way the Six Legged Bladelike Chi could escape was through drilling!
However, this would only work if they could outdistance the Six-Eared Earth-Drilling Mouse. Unfortunately, the members of Emperor Yu’s Hall weren’t fools. They wouldn’t waste time with Teng Qingshan. And so, Shengong Tu prepared to shoot another Void Piercing Arrow.
“Jing Yi, you can’t escape!”
“Stop resisting and hand over the Grass of Immortality.”
Yu Tonghai and Liu Xia had conversed with the use of the Sound Transmission Technique. They weren’t idiots. When they realized that the Six Legged Bladelike Chi had suddenly recovered, they would only think of one Spiritual Treasure—the Grass of Immortality!
Although the Cloudy Dreamy White Fruit had the same effect, the people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures only knew that the Grass of Immortality had this magical effect.
The Grass of Immortality could increase one’s lifespan by two hundred years and could revive a dead person whose Spirit had not dissipated. Even Yu Tonghai and Liu Xia were tempted by such a precious treasure. In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, the Grass of Immortality was extremely rare. According to the legends, only the Undying Phoenix possessed the Grass of Immortality.
Even Pei San of the Heavenly God Palace had specially visited the Undying Phoenix just for a Grass of Immortality.
One could imagine how valuable the Grass of Immortality was.
“Do you guys think you can take my Grass of Immortality? Dream on!” Teng Qingshan gripped the Splitting Mountain Axe and stood on the Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s back. He turned and faced the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon pursuing behind. The Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon suddenly went lower, causing its height to be much lower than that of the Six Legged Bladelike Chi.
At this instant—
“Hmph!” A cold glint flashed in Shengong Tu’s eyes as he released his grip.
Whew!
Teng Qingshan could only sense the golden afterimage in mid-air.
“Very cunning.” Teng Qingshan could distinctly sense in his domain the fierce Power of the Heavens and Earth that the Void Piercing Arrow contained. The Void Piercing Arrow shot directly at the lower abdomen of the Six Legged Bladelike Chi.
If the arrow came from above, Teng Qingshan could’ve deflected it very easily.
Although, the arrow would blast Teng Qingshan away. However, Shengong Tu had only brought six Void Piercing Arrows. He had used three and was not able to kill the Six Legged Bladelike Chi. Now, Shengong Tu didn’t dare to be negligent anymore. His purpose was to injure or kill the Six Legged Bladelike Chi.
“Roar~~” The Six Legged Bladelike Chi roared and simultaneously waved its six bladelike legs.
Clang!
A loud boom sounded as the impact sent the Six Legged Bladelike Chi flying upward for almost a hundred Zhang. Teng Qingshan, who sat on the Six Legged Bladelike, look down through the wings that were as thin as a cicada’s wings and saw that the Void Piercing Arrow had penetrated one of the bladelike legs. At this moment, the Void Piercing Arrow appeared cracked.
Crack~~ The broken Void Piercing Arrow fell downward.
“One of the bladelike legs are injured. This way, the Bladelike Chi’s underground drilling speed will definitely be decreased greatly.” Teng Qingshan knew clearly how much slower the drilling speed would be. For instance, if a wolf crippled one of its four legs, it wouldn’t retain 70-80 percent of the original speed. In fact, it would probably be not even half as fast as before.
As for the Six Legged Bladelike Chi, one of its bladelike limbs had been severely wounded. Therefore, because of the loss of one leg, the perfect drilling would no longer be perfect. Thus, the speed would naturally decrease drastically.
“Roar~~” The Six Legged Bladelike Chi emitted a proud roar.
…
“Why does this demonic beast have such tough limbs?” When Shengong Tu fired this arrow, he was astonished. He had shot the Six Legged Bladelike Chi twice, and both Void Piercing Arrows had penetrated the Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s body. Unfortunately, Shengong Tu didn’t know that the hardest physical features of the Six Legged Bladelike Chi were its six bladelike legs!
The six bladelike legs were tough enough to fight against Teng Qingshan’s Splitting Mountain Axe.
There were two reasons why:
Firstly, Teng Qingshan wasn’t capable enough. Therefore, the Splitting Mountain Axe was merely a very sharp Godly Weapon during that time.
Secondly, the Six Legged Bladelike Chi really had tough bladelike limbs.
…
The Void Piercing Arrow was extremely powerful. Even so, it was only able to penetrate one limb before its power dissipated.
“The Bladelike Chi’s injuries only affect the underground drilling; its flight is unaffected.” Teng Qingshan instantly understood why the Six Legged Bladelike Chi was so happy. “Shengong Tu has two more Void Piercing Arrows. After that, the remaining arrows are the lower ranked Godly Arrows. Now, we still need to survive two more times.”
At this moment, Teng Qingshan was very careful as he held the Splitting Mountain Axe, preparing to defend at any time.
If he could block once, it would mean that one Void Piercing Arrow would be considered wasted.
“Yu~~”
Suddenly, the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon emitted a furious cry. For a moment, numerous shapeless blades made of air shot out from its sharp beak. Instantly, the blades made of air shot everywhere, leaving the Six Legged Bladelike Chi nowhere to dodge or escape. The Bladelike Chi had no choice but to fight!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Clashes of metal sounded from the Six Legged Bladelike Chi and Teng Qingshan’s Splitting Mountain Axe. Immediately, the Six Legged Bladelike Chi’s agility and speed were affected.
“Roar~~” A loud roar sounded from beneath the Great Yan Mountain, causing the trees in the forest of the Great Yan Mountain to quiver in fright. The Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon, who was originally pursuing the Six Legged Bladelike Chi, immediately looked towards the ground nearby cautiously. As a loud rumble rang out, the earth burst and a blurred shadow flashed past.
It was raining heavily. However, the rain within an area of about ten Zhang instantly stopped.
Amidst the gloomy cloud, a huge and misty ball of clouds suddenly appeared. The winding body of huge snake moved slowly amidst the ball of clouds. A huge purple and black dragon scale, a horrifying dragon claw, and a swaying humongous tail could be seen occasionally…
Suddenly, a huge dragon head with a forked horn stretched out of the ball of clouds. Its crystal white mustache drooped as it stared at the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon with its dark, golden eyes.
The Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon raised its head and glared at the demonic dragon that had emerged suddenly.
“Yu~~” The Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon instantly shrieked. Its fur instantly pressed against the scale and became extremely tough. The air around the green eyes of the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon quivered slightly. At this moment, the two terrifying demonic beasts that had been alive for over six thousand years hovered before each other.
“Roar~~” In the golden eyes of the demonic dragon Purple Rain, anger that seemed to imply a violation of dignity could be sensed.
In the past, the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon had followed Emperor Yu and managed the rivers in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. It had fought against the demonic dragon Purple Rain once. Although the demonic dragon Purple Rain had surrendered to Emperor Yu in the end, it was still very much against the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon, the weaker demonic beast that had worked with Emperor Yu.
To uphold the honor of a demonic dragon, the demonic dragon Purple Rain kept its promise after the death of Emperor Yu and did not seek the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon for revenge.
However, today, the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon had actually shown off its power right above its lair. How could it tolerate such obnoxious actions?
“Roar~~” The demonic beast Purple Rain immediately dashed out of the lofty ball of clouds. The sight of its humongous body, which was several times larger than the Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon’s, was truly frightening.
Seeing this, Teng Qingshan was filled with joy and immediately took the chance. He hastily whispered, “Bladelike Chi, let’s go.” He pointed at a direction as he spoke.
Whoosh!
The Six Legged Bladelike Chi had always been an intelligent creature. It didn’t bother watching the fight and immediately fled.
“Yu~~” The Splitting Wind Dragon Falcon was constantly watching the Six Legged Bladelike Chi. When it noticed the Bladelike Chi escaping, it emitted an even higher-pitched shriek and streaked across the sky, arching over and avoiding the demonic dragon Purple Rain as it chased after the Six Legged Bladelike Chi.
This enraged the demonic dragon Purple Rain.
It had emerged to fight, but this stupid bird had actually ignored its presence and went after the other Emptiness Realm Demonic Beast? The fact that the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon had ignored its presence and left without even fighting made the demonic dragon Purple Rain roar in anger. As the roar shook the sky, the demonic dragon pursued the Wind Splitting Dragon Falcon, bringing along clouds and mist and leaving behind a blurred afterimage.
