Chapter 340 - Killing Hundreds With A Wave Of A Finger
Jiu Shen sat cross-legged atop a tree near the location where he met the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle tribe. He already had all the necessary ingredients needed to brew his wine recipe, but he had already promised the leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle that he would help him awaken his ancient bloodline. Jiu Shen wasn’t the kind of man who would go back on his words and besides, he thought that the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle tribe would be beneficial in his stay here in the Crimson Fiend Continent.
"The Sky Breaking Pill is an Origin-rank pill and it is not that difficult to refine. However, the Primal Blood Awakening Pill is a bit troublesome. Luckily, I have the Heaven Trampling Cauldron with me, so I should be able to refine it." Jiu Shen scanned the entire forest with his spiritual perception. He saw that the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle tribe was fighting another tribe of avian savage beasts. They might have come into conflict because of the ingredients needed to refine the Sky Breaking Pill and the Primal Blood Awakening Pill.
The avian tribe fighting against the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle weren’t weak, but they were still overwhelmed by the huge number of Purple Feathered Flame Eagles. However, they refused to back down despite the difference in their fighting force. From the looks of things, the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle might win this battle, but they would lose a lot of their tribe members. Jiu Shen didn’t want to see this happen. He was planning to subdue the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle and make them work for him, so he did not want to see them lose too many of their tribe members. Without hesitation, Jiu Shen flew towards the location of the battling avian tribes. His figure vanished from the tree.
***
Screech!
Somewhere in the forest above the tall trees, two tribes of avian savage beasts can be seen fighting ferociously. One group was led by a huge Purple Feathered Flame Eagle while the tribe of winged reptiles was commanded by a winged gargantuan snake-like creature.
The two sides collided in midair, causing a rain of blood to drop from the skies. The leaves of the trees beneath them were stained by the blood from these two tribes.
The smell of blood attracted a lot of savage beasts and they immediately rushed in the direction of the battle. The blood of these two avian tribes was beneficial to the other savage beasts, so despite the fearsome strength shown by the two sides, they still attracted some fearless wandering savage beasts.
At this moment, this patch of the forest was filled with horrific roars, sending chills to the demons who were in the periphery of the forest. The demons were wondering why the savage beasts would suddenly become active this time. Some of them chose to leave the forest, while a few of these demons decided to try their luck and sprinted to the location where the roars of the savage beasts originated.
"Are the savage beasts fighting over a precious spiritual plant? Or did they find a valuable piece of treasure?"
Not long later, the area near the battlefield of the two avian tribes was surrounded by a few dozen savage beasts and some wandering demons. All of them were looking at the crazy onslaught happening in the skies with shocked faces. They were curious why these two groups of avian savage beasts were fighting so frenziedly.
More and more corpses dropped from the skies, and they were immediately taken away by the savage beasts and demons who were lurking underneath. Seeing this, the leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle was angry, but it couldn’t do anything about it since it was still facing off the giant snake-like creature.
"These damned pests! I will kill you all after I finish off this goddamn worm!" The leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle screeched threateningly as it dove straight into the giant snake creature. Its pair of sharp talons was aiming for the head of the winged snake.
The winged snake felt the incoming threat and it abruptly flew to the side to evade the sharp talons of the berserk Purple Feathered Flame Eagle.
The two leaders clashed once more, leaving deep gashes on each other’s bodies. And just as they were about to attack again, a silhouette suddenly came into view in between them. The two creatures were bewildered by the sudden interruption, but when the leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle saw the face of the newcomer, it revealed a look of delight. "Esteemed sir, we have already gathered all the ingredients that you mentioned. I was about to go back, but these goddamn pests discovered that we have precious spiritual plants with us, so they intercepted us with the thoughts of stealing it!"
Jiu Shen stared at the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle. He could sense the anger in its tone. "Alright. Leave these guys to me. I’ll handle them." He muttered while waving his hand disinterestedly.
The Purple Feathered Flame Eagle was slightly doubtful, but when it remembered Jiu Shen’s peculiarities, it nodded its bird head and issued a command to its tribe.
Seeing the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle tribe retreat after the arrival of this human, the winged snake became incredibly displeased. "Human, how dare you interfere in the affairs of savage beasts?! Disappear from my sights and I will consider letting you-"
Before it could even finish its words, the giant winged snake’s head was blasted into smithereens!
Jiu Shen retracted his finger and stared at the headless corpse of the giant snake as it fell hard on the ground. None of the creatures dared to steal the carcass of the winged snake after they witness this terrifying scene. Although no one saw what happened, they knew that the sudden death of the giant winged snake should be related to the mysterious human hovering in midair. They did not want to anger such a great expert for a single savage beast carcass, but they weren’t disappointed either. For they had witnessed an astonishing scene that had changed their views about the world of cultivation.
No matter how strong one can become, there would always be someone stronger than him.
The wandering demons watching this felt their hairs raising and they immediately fled from the place. The presence of this human wasn’t good news for them. This meant that there was one more strong human that they would have to fight. Although they weren’t directly connected with the Great Demon Empire, they would still side with their fellow demons in the war against humans.
Jiu Shen saw the fleeing demons, but he did not have any interest in them. They were just a bunch of lesser demons and they were of no threat to him.
When the group of feathered lizards saw the collapse of their leader, they became fearful and instantly fled without hesitation. They were already at a disadvantage before and when Jiu Shen came, all their hopes were vanquished.
Jiu Shen did not want to let them escape. These feathered lizards might look aggressive, but their meat doesn’t taste that bad and it can even be considered as a rare delicacy.
With a wave of his hand, Jiu Shen produced hundreds of tiny ice needles and sent them hurtling towards the fleeing feathered lizards. The poor creatures could not even emit a shriek before their corpses plopped to the ground tragically.
Jiu Shen did a beckoning motion with his right hand and stopped the descent of the fallen carcasses. He then stuffed the hundreds of corpses inside his space earring as if he was stuffing apples and cabbages in his bag.
The scene flabbergasted the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle. They couldn’t believe that such a strong tribe was actually taken out by Jiu Shen in just a matter of seconds. The leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, it was smart enough and did not provoke Jiu Shen at that time or their tribe wouldn’t be any better compared to the feathered lizards.
After stuffing all the corpses inside his space earring, Jiu Shen stared at the creatures hiding underneath. When his gaze scanned them, the savage beasts and the remaining brave demons felt their blood had suddenly become frozen! They shivered as Jiu Shen’s sight moved past them and they only became relieved after Jiu Shen had looked away.
"Esteemed sir, thank you for saving my tribe. If not for you, more of my family would have died. My Purple Feathered Flame Eagle will be at your command regardless if you refine the pill for us or not." The leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle respectfully said to Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen glanced approvingly at the huge bird in front of him. This creature was smart and it knew that following Jiu Shen was the best choice for its tribe. Aside from this mysterious human’s ability to concoct pills, he was also a peerless cultivator with unparalleled battle strength!
"Lead the way. Once we find a perfect spot, I’ll refine the pill for you.." Jiu Shen muttered calmly.
