Chapter 1100: Chapter 1097: Divine Bird Golden Crow
In the vast mountains, Xu Wendong’s figure seemed extremely small, and he was flying within the clouds, so he hadn’t encountered any danger.
Early morning, five days later.
While Xu Wendong was flying among the clouds, a flash of black appeared suddenly ahead.
It collided with his chest like lightning, almost knocking him off his flying sword.
He focused his gaze.
There was actually a black bird in his arms, not very large, similar to a free-range rooster.
But the bird emitted a black glow all over its body, radiating a scorching aura.
However, this bird was covered in blood, giving a dying impression.
"Oh crap, is this a Divine Beast Golden Crow?" Xu Wendong felt his scalp tingle, instantly recognizing the origin of this bird.
Its appearance matched exactly with that on the Golden Crow Furnace.
Moreover, he could intuitively feel that the Golden Crow Furnace had somehow resonated with this bird.
Just as he hadn’t recovered from the shock, a massive Azure Scaled Eagle appeared in the distance.
Its wings could span hundreds of meters, looking as if it covered the sky and projected a strong visual impact and pressure.
Because Xu Wendong could feel that this Azure Scaled Eagle’s strength was at least Transcendance Tribulation Stage.
Without further thought, he instantly vanished into the air, entering the Penglai Immortal Island Minor World.
Given his current strength, he simply wasn’t a match for the Azure Scaled Eagle.
Avoiding its wrath was the only choice.
And right after Xu Wendong entered the Minor World.
A sharp, piercing scream echoed outside.
The sound was high-pitched, reaching the clouds.
Although Xu Wendong had already hidden in the Minor World, he still felt his scalp tingle with fear.
"Could this really be the Godly creature Golden Crow?"
Upon seeing the bird in Xu Wendong’s arms, Hong Luan immediately recognized its origin, her eyes full of shock.
Bai Zhi and others also had incredulous expressions, clearly not expecting the Demon Race to produce such a terrifying godly creature again.
Although the Golden Crow’s strength was weak now, once it grew, it could truly slay immortals!
Hong Luan’s soul transmitted a message: "Young Master Xu, you can take this opportunity while the Golden Crow is young, to have it recognize you as its master. Doing so would surely provide you with a powerful ally!"
"Hong Luan speaks truly." Bai Zhi also said, "You possess a rare Ancient Sacred Body, your path of growth will be fraught with thorns and darkness, destined to encounter many strong enemies, you need a capable assistant!"
"In my view, this Golden Crow is the best choice."
Xu Wendong also felt they were right, his own strength wasn’t very strong.
He really needed a powerful helper, and undeniably, this Golden Crow was the best choice.
Thinking this, he pinched the spell with one hand, infusing thick Spiritual Energy into the Golden Crow’s body.
The next moment.
The previously unconscious Golden Crow slowly opened its eyes. It flapped its wings, flying into mid-air, cautiously observing Xu Wendong and the six others, with an innocent voice saying, "What is this place? Who are you people?"
Though its size wasn’t large, and its cultivation level only at the Golden Core Stage, when it flapped its wings, Xu Wendong could feel the air heating up.
"This is my magical treasure." Xu Wendong said, "You were previously being hunted by the Azure Scaled Eagle, I saved you."
Upon hearing this, the Golden Crow’s eyes showed undisguised hatred, but mostly unwillingness.
Given its strength, it simply wasn’t a match for the Azure Scaled Eagle.
"Can you help me avenge myself?" The Golden Crow looked at Xu Wendong, "If you can help me get revenge, I am willing to give you my Soul Blood, and become your steed."
Xu Wendong was stunned, never expecting the Golden Crow to willingly recognize him as its master.
Though secretly pleased, the conditions offered by the other party were too harsh.
To know, its pursuer was a powerful Azure Scaled Eagle.
Even Hong Luan and others were dumbfounded.
They did not doubt Xu Wendong’s abilities.
But with his current strength, there’s no way he could stand against the Azure Scaled Eagle.
Even Bai Zhi, a strong figure at the Tribulation Crossing Initial Stage, facing the Azure Scaled Eagle, wasn’t sure if she could definitely defeat it.
"If you’re afraid, then forget it!" The Golden Crow’s eyes were fierce, "At worst, I’ll train for hundreds of years, and seek revenge once I’ve matured!"
Xu Wendong cleared his throat, saying, "I don’t want to use Soul Blood to bind our relationship, it’s too impure."
"Since you trust me, I will help you with this revenge."
"However, you need to tell me the strength and background of that Azure Scaled Eagle."
The Golden Crow’s eyes were fierce, saying, "It is one of the four protectors under the Golden-Winged Roc, possessing Tribulation Crossing Peak cultivation level, this place is its territory."
"My parents were its subjects, but because my mother incubated me, it killed my parents and wants to eat me."
"Its purpose is to seize my bloodline."
After the Golden Crow’s explanation, Xu Wendong understood the whole incident, this little guy’s parents were originally ordinary demon beasts of the Avian Tribe.
Their cultivation level was only Nascent Soul Stage.
But somehow their bloodline mutated, giving birth to the godly creature Golden Crow.
Logically, this should be an event that would uplift the Avian Tribe, yet the Azure Scaled Eagle coveted the Golden Crow’s bloodline, wanting to seize it.
Thus, the little one’s parents fought desperately to buy time, escorting the little one to escape, until it met Xu Wendong.
"Young Master Xu, the Azure Scaled Eagle is one of the four protectors under the Golden-Winged Roc, and its strength is very formidable, do you have confidence in killing it?" Zi Yan couldn’t help but ask, her eyes full of worry.
She knew, even though Xu Wendong was capable, equipped with unusual means, even if he could truly kill the Azure Scaled Eagle.
But doing so would undoubtedly offend the Golden-Winged Roc, after all, the Azure Scaled Eagle was a protector under the Golden-Winged Roc.
If truly so, they simply couldn’t hope to reach the Dragon Clan alive.
Because the strength of the Golden-Winged Roc was ranked second in the entire Demon Realm, even if Mo Qilin showed up, it wouldn’t be its match.
"It’s worth a try!"
Xu Wendong knew this would be difficult, but he decided to try.
Because he possessed two magical treasures.
First.
The Taoist Scripture Fragment, stained with the Eight-Eyed Spider King’s blood, containing deadly poison.
If he could use the Taoist Scripture Fragment to severely wound the Azure Scaled Eagle, it might cause a fatal injury.
Secondly was the longsword Mo Chen had previously given him, a treasure nurtured by Soul Force, which at a critical moment could unleash a fatal strike at Great Ascension Peak strength.
Though it only allowed for one strike, if that strike hits the Azure Scaled Eagle, what worry is there about not being able to kill it?
In addition, he was proficient in formation, completely capable of setting up a formation to trap it, thereby finding an opportunity for a fatal strike.
Though killing the Azure Scaled Eagle would offend the Golden-Winged Roc, facing the Golden Crow’s willingness to recognize him, why not take on some risks?
