Chapter 528 – Eagles’ Eggs
Located in the Pure County was the Mystical Scale Sect, while the Wang Chun Sect occupied the center of the three counties, Feng County, and the Blue Luan Sect was located in the most westernmost county, Ling County. This Senior Brother Wei and Junior Sister Wu were obviously the true heirs of the Blue Ling Sect.
Through their conversation, Yang Junsha found out about the news of Dianthus, and also finally found out the reason behind the alien cultivators entering the northern ice plains on such a large scale. He also unexpectedly found out about himself, and from the looks of it, he could be considered quite famous in the cultivation world of the Liang Zhou.
Offending a Profound Constellation Realm cultivator, and having oveundred True pith coin that were equivalent to small spirit veins on their body, the Astral Transformation Realm cultivators who wore stone masks would probably, in the eyes of the cultivators on the ice plains, be equivalent to a mobile treasure trove. It was unknown just how many people were searching for their traces.
The stone mask that was condensed from True Essence could no longer be used, even if Qi Min had to give chase after he received the news. But after escaping with his life from the hands of the Profound Constellation Realm cultivators, Yang Junshan would rather fight against Qi Min face-to-face.
After leaving the cave, Yang Junshan was still wandering around the ice plains. His primary goal was still to find the spatial domain that was filled with Aurora, and then, he would cultivate the magnetic precious light spell to the perfection-stage. Only then would he think of ways to obtain the inheritance of the Dianthus of his cultivation if he had the spare energy.
However, while they were searching for the Primary Magnetic Force, they didn’t forget to use the Ice Silkworm in the stone bottle at their waists to search for the nests of various beasts on the ice plains. Every one of these nests meant they could find a small treasure.
Although the majority of the things inside were low grade spirit materials such as ice jade, ice stone, or cold iron that Yang Junshan disliked, the fact that he would occasionally come across a Aurora Stone or an Ice Essence Stone made him quite happy.
However, what surprised him was that the nests he found were exactly the same as the one he used to heal in. The savage beasts and dire beasts that lived within the nests were nowhere to be found.
Thinking about the news that he had just heard from the two cultivators from the Cang Ling Sect, could it be that these savage beasts and dire beasts had been caught by the cultivators who had rushed into the icy plains?
This was obviously impossible, but if not, then where had all these beasts run off to?
Yang Junshan had a faint guess, that the beasts’ news was related to the large scale influx of cultivators into the ice plains, but he could only guess the actual situation.
This caused Yang Junshan to be somewhat disappointed. Not only that, even the other cultivators had not met with him, making it impossible for Yang Junshan to ask about the information related to Dianthus.
When he arrived at the lee of an ice hill, Yang Junshan, who had been walking on the ice plains for two days, was preparing to take a break, suddenly, a loud and clear sound came from afar.
Yang Junshan quivered and jumped up from the snow. Hearing this voice,’s first reaction was to hear that it sounded like a bird, this kind of dire beast that was searching for food in groups on the ice plains had left a deep impression on Yang Junshan.
But immediately after, he realized that this loud and clear sound was different from the Frigid Eagle’s cries. Yang Junshan immediately climbed over the ice hill and chased after him.
But just then, the chirping sounds came over, scaring Yang Junshan, who was crawling on the ground near his waist, away from the sound. The sounds were definitely coming from the group of Frigid Eagle, and from the sounds, there were definitely more, at least more than the group of eagles he had encountered in the past.
But Yang Junshan quickly regained his senses. Although it sounded like there were a lot of eagles, the distance between them sounded very far. He finally mustered his courage and continued to climb towards the icy hill.
From the top of the ice hill, he could see that almost half of the sky was covered by the dark green Frigid Eagle s. There were probably noundred of them, and some of the Frigid Eagle s’ wings were spread out for around ten meters, while some of them were small eagles that had just learned how to fly, and some of them were young eagles that had just hatched. However, they were all either in their beaks or in their claws.
“This is …”
Yang Junshan watched as the large group of eagles circled in the air, and below them, there was a lone mountain of boulders. Most likely, it wasn’t two thousand meters, and on the ice plains which had been ravaged by the blizzard for god knows how many years, it was not completely submerged by ice and snow. On the other hand, the top of the mountain of boulders were densely packed with holes, making it look like the lair of this group of Frigid Eagle.
“This is to … Move, oh, move? ”
Yang Junshan looked at the group of eagles circling above the mountain peak filled with boulders and boulders with uncertainty. Their noisy cries were filled with nostalgia, but when he heard the clear cries at the start, all the Frigid Eagle’s cries were suppressed. Finally, the eagles that covered the sky turned around in midair and flew further north.
As the huge flock of eagles turned in midair, Yang Junshan could vaguely see a cyan colored figure appear and disappear within the flock of eagles. It did not look like a Frigid Eagle, but it was still a bird’s body, and its wings seemed to be sparkling and transparent. It was unknown how much prettier it was compared to the Frigid Eagle.
Just as Yang Junshan wanted to take a closer look, the figure was casually drowned by the group of Frigid Eagle, and then the group of Frigid Eagle headed towards the north, until they disappeared into the snow, leaving behind a gigantic stone mountain standing alone in the snow.
Yang Junshan watched from the other side of the ice hill until he was sure that the Frigid Eagle was indeed leaving, or at least that they wouldn’t be returning for a short period of time. Then, he hurriedly slid down from the other side of the ice hill, and headed towards the giant boulder that housed the hawk’s nest.
Kacha, kacha …
Yang Junshan did not know how many limbs and bones he had broken while he was still under the huge rock. In the beginning, Yang Junshan was a little surprised, he even purposely stopped to clear the snow underneath his feet that was making a noise, and when a corpse that had been buried in the snow for who knows how many years was revealed, he finally understood that this huge rock was the nest of a group of eagles. Furthermore, around the nest is the place where they abandoned the bones after eating.
Man, beast, or bird; complete, incomplete; hard, soft.
Yang Junshan did not know how many corpses lay beneath the accumulated snow, but he did know that if he removed all the snow and ice around the huge rock, at the very least, the accumulated corpses would be able to form a mountain of white bones that was not smaller than this giant rock.
When he arrived at the top of the Solitary Falcon’s nest, Yang Junshan realized that ice and snow had already begun to accumulate on the peak.
These Frigid Eagle s could use their claws to grab onto the young falcon, but they couldn’t take the eggs away. Without the protection of the Frigid Eagle, no matter how cold they were, it was impossible for the eggs to last for long in the blizzard.
Yang Junshan’s chest moved, and a young fox, Xue Yi, who had just opened her eyes, revealed her head. Seeing the eagle egg within the huge rock eagle nest, she grabbed onto Yang Junshan’s clothes and jumped down quickly, then practically pounced on top of a half foot long eagle egg. The eagle egg rolled around as it pounced on it, and even the young fox was crushed by it from beginning to end.
Xiao Xue Yi opened her small mouth and tried to bite through the Eagle Egg, but she was unable to do so when faced with the hard egg shell. She could only look at Yang Junshan for help.
Yang Junshan laughed, and used his finger to knock on the eagle egg, and a small hole that was just big enough for its mouth appeared on the egg shell. The white of the egg, which was already frozen solid inside, started to slowly spill, but was eaten cleanly by the little fox.
Yang Junshan took a rough look. There were about thirty to forty eagle nests on the lone peak, with only about twenty to thirty eggs. It seemed that the Frigid Eagle had abandoned the descendants that had not hatched.
Although Yang Junshan did not know the reason behind the migrations of the eagles and the abandonment of their descendants, these eggs could still be used aoothpick and as a snack for Little Xue Yi. With the protection of a normal group of Frigid Eagle s, forget about Frigid Eagle eggs, it would be hard for a creature other than a Frigid Eagle to even get close to the peak of the mountain where the hawk nest was.
In the end, Yang Junshan picked up twenty-eight Eagle Eggs from the nest of the lone peak. Two of the Eagles even gave Yang Junshan a sense of vitality, which meant that they were two live eggs.
Picking up the two eggs, even Yang Junshan himself was a little surprised. He immediately discovered that the nest these two eggs were in was on the leeward side of the lone peak. Not to mention that the things laid on top of the nest were the broken skins of Ice Fox and Ice Bears, what was even stranger was that there was actually a Flamecloud Stone.
It was precisely because of these items that these two eggs managed to preserve their last chance of survival before Yang Junshan found them.
Yang Junshan thought for a while, before putting the two living eggs together with the Flaming Stone onto his waist. Like this, he wouldn’t lose his life force in the snowstorm within the ice plains.
Finding the Flamecloud gem from the hawk’s nest waeminder to Yang Junshan. Besides the eggs, perhaps there were other treasures scattered around this lonely mountain of forty odd eagles.
He once again searched through all the eagle nests. Other than the tattered fur used to construct the nests, Yang Junshan also discovered tattered storage bag s, fragments of magic tools and spirit artifacts, broken pill bottles, scattered feathers that were stained with the Primary Magnetic Force, broken inheritance jade plate s, and a few spirit materials. There were some small and precious items among them, such as a low-grade spirit artifact, the Glazed Pearl Flower.
However, at this time, Yang Junshan was playing with the Cyan Jade Crystal Bead that he had fished out from a dilapidated storage bag. Even though the color was somewhat different, Yang Junshan was extremely familiar with this item, there was no doubt that it was a inheritance pearl.
