"Bah!"

A cry, even more piercing and furious, almost tearing the entire valley apart, came from the horizon.

That was another Shining Winged Ice Falcon. It had witnessed its companion being shot down by that tiny human using bizarre methods, its fate unknown.

Its enormous eyes were filled with boundless rage and pain. Its translucent wings, interwoven with silver and rainbow halos, flapped like a storm, emanating an even more terrifying chill that froze the air in the entire highland area. Countless fist-sized ice crystals, carrying an aura of destruction, poured down on Lin Feng and Bai Yueguang like a torrential downpour.

Lin Feng hung suspended beneath the white moonlight, swaying violently in the gale. He looked up at the giant ice falcon that was swooping down at an astonishing speed, at its huge eyes filled with murderous intent, at the ice crystals that fell from its wingtips that were enough to freeze everything, and felt the suffocating and terrifying pressure.

However, faced with this fury that seemed to tear the sky apart and this desperate desire for revenge...

A near-mad smile slowly appeared on Lin Feng's face!

He showed no fear, nor did he back down. Instead, he opened his mouth and let out a laugh that was even more arrogant and unrestrained than that of the ice falcon!

I know you're angry! I know!

Lin Feng raised his head, facing the terrifyingly cold wind that could freeze even steel, and roared with all his might at the enormous, divinely punishing ice crystal shadow behind him. His voice trembled slightly with excitement, yet it carried a resolute and unwavering determination:

"You've lost your partner! You've lost your children! You have every reason to be angry! You have every reason to tear me to pieces!"

"But there's nothing I can do!!" Lin Feng's smile became even more ferocious, his eyes flashing with an almost obsessive light: "Who told me... I wanted it?!"

I want it!

He practically roared out the last three words, carrying a primal and wild desire that had been suppressed for far too long and was finally bursting forth at this moment.

At this moment, the threat of life and death, the desperate situation, all become insignificant.

In his mind, like a movie playing in fast-forward, flashbacks of his humble and repressed past in another world, belonging to him, Lin Feng, were playing wildly.

It was a sweltering summer day, and sweat soaked through the cheap yellow delivery uniform, sticking stickily to my body.

He rode a dilapidated electric bike, weaving through the bustling traffic and concrete jungle, racing against time for a few dollars in delivery fees, enduring customers' urging and even insults.

He had seen countless times those young men and women dressed in glamorous, obviously expensive clothes, driving Porsches and Ferraris that he could never even dream of, their engines roaring arrogantly, parking in front of the most upscale restaurants or downstairs in the most luxurious hotels.

He had seen those men, embracing hot, beautiful women, chatting and laughing, their eyes filled with an innate disdain and sense of superiority towards them, the lowly ants.

Their world is filled with champagne, parties, yachts, and endless money.

Is he envious?

Lin Feng asked himself in the most honest and undisguised voice.

Envious! Of course I'm envious! Insanely envious! My heart is bleeding with envy!

Why? Why are they born to have everything, while Lin Feng, despite his best efforts, can only struggle to make ends meet?

Why can they enjoy life as they please, while he has to spin like a top just to survive, with no hope in sight?

But he would never say things like some people in a sour tone, "Money can't buy happiness," or numb himself with a false sense of morality, telling himself that "a simple life is the best."

He won't!

Even if he knew that he might not be able to afford someone else's watch even if he worked hard for a lifetime, no, ten lifetimes, he would never lie to his own heart, which was burning with resentment and desire!

He wants it! He really wants it! He wants that kind of luxury car!

I want that kind of beautiful woman!

I want a life where I can do whatever I want and be in control of everything!

This naked, undisguised desire, like the most turbulent lava, had been surging in his heart for countless years, scorching his soul, yet also sustaining him, preventing him from completely succumbing to the numbness of daily life.

Lin Feng can be poor, humble, and have nothing!

But he absolutely cannot be, not at all!

He must not live like a walking corpse, and he must not lose that ambition and drive to "want"!

Now, in this brand new alien world full of danger and opportunity, the rules have been completely broken!

All the money, status, and power of the past have vanished like a bubble!

Power! Only absolute power is the standard by which everything is measured!

And Lin Feng is gaining this power!

He tamed the horned wolf, possessed the White Moonlight and White Emerald, established his own sanctuary, and even... is about to have offspring of the legendary Shining Winged Ice Falcon.

These eggs are his "Porsche"! They are his "billions in wealth"! They are the capital that allows him to change his destiny and control everything.

To obtain them, he risked his life, climbing sheer cliffs and battling terrifying beasts!

Now, this Radiant Falcon, having lost its mate and cubs, is chasing after him with boundless rage, determined to reclaim everything that belongs to it and to tear this thief to pieces!

That's fair!

But Lin Feng will never surrender!

He'll fight tooth and nail for what he wants, even if it means going against the whole world! Even if it means battling death!

"Come on! Keep chasing!"

Lin Feng let out another arrogant laugh at the Radiant Falcon in the sky, its wings contorted with rage. The sound was so small in the wind, yet so resolute.

"Let's see if you can catch up with me, or if I can establish myself in this world with your egg!"

The Shining Winged Ice Falcon was thoroughly enraged by Lin Feng's arrogance, and it had fallen into a frenzy of pure killing intent and vengeance.

It let out a series of sharp cries, and its huge body swooped down towards Bai Yueguang and Lin Feng like an arrow released from a bow.

"Hehehe!"

It opened its enormous maw, as deep as an abyss, and a beam of ice-blue light, visible to the naked eye and formed from extreme cold energy, swept down towards Lin Feng and Bai Yueguang like a death scythe descending from the sky, carrying a world-destroying force.

These were not the ice crystals that had fallen from the wingtips earlier, but rather the Ice Falcon's most powerful long-range attack—the Extreme Cold Breath.

Its power is enough to freeze all matter instantly, turning everything in its path into cold nothingness.

Lin Feng's pupils shrank sharply as he felt the terrifying chill that made his very soul tremble.

He knew that with Bai Yueguang's current speed, he simply couldn't completely dodge this attack!

"White Moonlight! Charge!"

Lin Feng roared, while tightly hugging the two giant egg-shaped pouches on his chest, curling his body as much as possible into Bai Yueguang's abdomen, trying to minimize the impact.

The white moonlight sensed the deadly threat and let out a terrified screech. Its massive body twisted violently in mid-air, and its powerful wings unleashed an unprecedented force as it desperately accelerated downwards into the canyon, trying to evade the deadly breath!

However, the speed and range of Hanji's breath were simply too fast!

It arrived like the shadow of death, threatening to completely engulf Bai Yueguang and Lin Feng!

At this critical moment!

A pure and dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from the noble horn of the white jade!

White Emerald had been following White Moonlight. Although it hadn't received direct commands from Lin Feng, as a beast with keen senses, it sensed a deadly danger. Its ivory-white horn suddenly shone brightly, like a small sun, instantly illuminating the entire gloomy valley!

"Buzz!"

The light collided violently with the icy breath of the Shining Wing Ice Falcon in the next second!

"Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed through the mountains and valleys as two forces of heaven and earth collided violently!

The icy blue, frigid breath was miraculously blocked the moment it came into contact with the white light.

The extreme cold energy and the pure light clashed against each other, unleashing an astonishing energy fluctuation. The violent airflow surged in all directions, instantly blowing away the surrounding clouds and revealing the bottomless canyon below.

Under the impact of the extreme cold breath, the white light lasted less than two seconds before dissipating into specks of dust with a soft cracking sound. But those two seconds bought the white moonlight a precious chance to escape!

The white moonlight had already carried Lin Feng, narrowly escaping the edge of the extreme cold.

Although the body still felt the bone-chilling cold, at least the life was saved.

"White jade!"

Lin Feng was shocked; he hadn't expected that Bai Feicui had such a hidden ability.

However, after unleashing that attack, White Jade's body became noticeably weaker. It let out a low hiss and its speed slowed down.

"Well done! White Jade!" Lin Feng didn't have time to think further; he knew this was just a brief respite!

Although the Ice Falcon was slightly hindered by the White Jade's attack, it did not suffer any substantial damage.

Its eyes burned with even greater killing intent, and it let out an angry cry, chasing after Lin Feng and Bai Yueguang once again like lightning!

"Damn it! This is never going to end!" Lin Feng was extremely anxious as he looked at the enormous creature relentlessly pursuing him.

The speed of both White Moonlight and White Jadeite is decreasing. If this continues, they will be caught up sooner or later!

He quickly looked around, searching for any possible escape route.

The mountains and valleys were filled with sheer cliffs and bottomless ravines. He had to make an even more risky decision!

"Waterfall!" Lin Feng's gaze suddenly locked onto a huge stream of water not far ahead.

It was a massive waterfall cascading down from the towering snow-capped mountain peak, like an inverted Milky Way, roaring as it plunged into the abyss below. The edges of the waterfall were perpetually covered in ice and snow, but the waterfall itself, with its ceaseless flow of water, continued to surge forward.

Lin Feng knew that jumping into the waterfall meant certain death.

The force of the current was enough to tear him apart, and the depth and danger of the pool below were unpredictable. But this was his only way out. Although the Shining Falcon was powerful, it was ultimately an aerial creature and could not pursue him underwater for long.

"White Moonlight! White Emerald! Jump into the waterfall!" Lin Feng gave the final command, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority.

White Moonlight and White Emerald almost instinctively trusted Lin Feng's command. They let out a cry that was a mixture of fear and determination, and without the slightest hesitation, they rushed straight toward the magnificent waterfall!

Behind them, the Radiant Ice Falcon, with a deafening roar, frantically flapped its wings and unleashed a deadly, frigid breath less than a hundred meters away from Bai Yueguang and Lin Feng!

The icy blue beam of light howled and tore through the air, instantly enveloping Bai Yueguang and Lin Feng!

However, just as the extreme cold breath was about to completely engulf them!

White Moonlight and White Emerald simultaneously let out a deafening roar, and their massive bodies resolutely plunged into the waterfall covered in ice and snow!

"Boom!"

The massive flow of water instantly swallowed their figures, and they tumbled and plummeted violently in the waterfall!

The extreme cold breath struck the waterfall, stirring up a shower of ice crystals and mist. But Lin Feng, Bai Yueguang, and Bai Feicui had completely disappeared into the depths of the waterfall and the bottomless pool below.

The massive body of the Ice Falcon circled above the waterfall, emitting angry cries before reluctantly swooping down, attempting to search for its prey on the water's surface. But the waterfall's force was too great, the pool below unfathomably deep, and the spray obstructing its view.

It hovered above the waterfall for a long time, emitting desperate and angry cries that echoed through the mountains and valleys for a long time.

But in the end, after realizing it couldn't find Lin Feng and its egg, it could only let out a mournful cry, filled with hatred and despair, and slowly flew away from the area.

...

I don't know how much time has passed.

Lin Feng felt as if his body was falling apart. The icy liquid relentlessly eroded every cell in his body, and his lungs burned with pain, as if they were about to explode. He didn't even know if he was alive or dead, floating in the water, or trapped in some small space.

His consciousness rose and fell like the tides. He felt as if he had a long dream, dreaming of those familiar faces and every stormy day he had experienced while delivering food.

Finally, he jolted awake and began to cough violently!

"Cough cough cough!"

Cold water gushed from his mouth and nostrils as he gasped for breath, greedily inhaling the frigid air.

"I'm alive?"

Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes. What came into view was not a cold waterfall, nor a bottomless pool, but a huge, dimly lit underground cave!

The cave was exceptionally spacious, with towering rocks overhead and countless stalactites and stalagmites hanging down from above and growing from the ground. In the distance, one could faintly hear the sound of flowing water and the soft breathing of some kind of creature.

Lin Feng propped himself up and found himself lying on a relatively dry patch of soil.

His body was soaking wet, his leather armor clinging tightly to his skin, but at least it hadn't been washed away by the water. The two giant egg-shaped pouches on his chest were also intact, which gave him a great sense of relief.

"White Moonlight! White Jade!" Lin Feng immediately looked around and called out anxiously.

"hiss!"

A low, weak hissing sound came from not far away.

Lin Feng looked in the direction of the sound and was pleasantly surprised to find that White Moonlight was lying in a corner of the cave. Its body was wet and its fleshy wings were somewhat damaged, indicating that it had suffered a considerable impact in the waterfall.

But its deep blue eyes were now looking at Lin Feng with a hint of relief at surviving a disaster.

Beside Bai Yueguang, Bai Feicui lay weakly on the ground. The pure white light on its single horn had completely dimmed, clearly indicating that the previous attack had consumed a great deal of its energy.

"I'm so glad you're all alright!" Lin Feng was filled with gratitude.

He knew that it was Bai Yueguang who, at the crucial moment, led him into the depths of the waterfall and, during the descent, found the entrance to this hidden underground cave, allowing them to escape the pursuit of the Shining Ice Falcon and avoid the most violent impact of the waterfall.

And the white jadeite saved their lives.

He struggled to walk to White Moonlight and White Jade, and gently stroked their heads.

They nuzzled Lin Feng's palm with their heads, indicating that they were just as fortunate.

Lin Feng checked his body and found that apart from several abrasions and bruises, as well as frozen limbs, he had not suffered any fatal injuries.

He took out some dry food and water from his bag and fed it to the weak White Moonlight and White Jade first, then wolfed it down himself.

After replenishing his food and water, Lin Feng began to carefully observe the underground cave.

Deep within the cave, the sound of flowing water could be heard, clearly from an underground river beneath the waterfall.

He knew that although it was safe here for the time being, he couldn't stay here forever. He had to find a way out.

"Take some time to rest."

Lin Feng made his decision. He carefully placed the two giant egg-shaped pouches in a dry spot to the side, and then used the tinder and dry grass he carried with him to start a campfire in a corner of the cave.

The warm firelight instantly dispelled the chill inside the cave and illuminated its mysterious scenery.

After checking on Bai Yueguang and Bai Feicui's injuries and confirming that they were alright, Lin Feng leaned against them, using the warm firelight to dry his soaked clothes, while closing his eyes to recover his exhausted physical and mental strength.

Beside the campfire, Lin Feng felt an unprecedented tranquility.

This experience, though extremely perilous, deepened his understanding of this alien world and strengthened his resolve to follow his own survival principles. He successfully obtained the egg of the Shining Falcon, which held immense significance for him.

Several days later, Lin Feng had fully recovered his strength, and Bai Yueguang and Bai Feicui had also regained their spirits. He knew it was time to leave.

Carrying the white moonlight and white jade, he cautiously explored forward, following the sound of flowing water deep within the cave.

The cave was winding and complex, with some parts exceptionally narrow and others opening up dramatically, and even containing underground lakes. Lin Feng, relying on his keen judgment of the terrain and extraordinary intuition, avoided those potential dangers.

Finally, after a whole day of exploration, he saw a glimmer of light in the distance.

"Exit!" Lin Feng was overjoyed and quickened his pace.

He carried the white moonlight and white jade, passed through a narrow crevice, and then burst out of the cave.

A refreshing breeze carries the scent of earth and plants. Sunlight filters through the tree canopy, dappling the ground below.

They found themselves deep in a dense forest!

Lin Feng looked up and recognized the plant community of the forest, as well as some familiar landmarks.

He did not go any further into the higher ground, which had become a restricted area.

He needs to return to the shelter as soon as possible to hatch these precious Shining Wing Falcon eggs.

He took out his binoculars and quickly determined the direction.

He has an excellent sense of direction and quickly found his way home.

"Let's go! Home!" Lin Feng patted Bai Yueguang's neck, his eyes filled with excitement.

White Moonlight let out a joyful neigh, carrying Lin Feng, with White Emerald close behind. The two wildebeest galloped through the forest, rushing towards the sanctuary.

Although they encountered some strange beasts on their return journey, they managed to escape danger thanks to Lin Feng's powerful strength and the assistance of Bai Yueguang and Bai Feicui.

This adventure gave Lin Feng a deeper understanding of the world and further honed his own abilities.
