Wang Zheng nodded upon hearing Ling Youjie's explanation.
He no longer needs to watch over You Dazhi; Qiu Manling's presence is more than enough.
He was also curious about his surroundings, so he decided to walk around and see what was going on.
Ahh ...
Just as Wang Zheng got up, he suddenly heard a mournful wail coming from afar.
He immediately realized that someone must be searching for the locator, indicating that something had happened to Shi Shaolei.
Ling Youjie also heard the shout and immediately stood up and rushed over.
He ran and shouted, "Xiaoling, let's go! Wang Zheng, could you stay here and keep an eye on Dazhi? Something might have happened to Shaolei."
Wang Zheng wanted to say that he was stronger than them on the ground and wanted to go and help, but upon hearing their order, he immediately stopped in his tracks and halted his forward movement.
After all, they were comrades-in-arms in the same team, and letting him stay behind might also be a way of asking him to protect him.
So when he saw the two figures quickly disappearing into the distance, he simply nodded with a gloomy face and whispered, "Be careful."
Wang Zheng was feeling very agitated, with a sense of powerlessness and the subtle, unseen gazes around him making him feel uneasy.
If he didn't have to watch over You Dazhi on the ground, Wang Zheng would have already pulled out his hammer and started wreaking havoc.
After he suppressed the urge to attack and sat down again next to You Dazhi, he heard a loud bang from above and couldn't help but look up at the sky.
Above the clouds, one half was covered in dark clouds, with lightning surging like silver snakes dancing wildly, while the other half was filled with rosy clouds, like fire burning the sky.
Every now and then, two tiny figures would dart through the area, colliding repeatedly and creating bursts of noise.
As Wang Zheng stared at the screen, he became somewhat lost in thought, his eyes gradually becoming vacant, as if he were pondering something.
—————————
The battlefield of Jingxiang, above the clouds.
Chu Tianxing and the burly man who had previously attacked the transport plane had already started fighting.
The two seemed to be old acquaintances, and they were shouting and cursing at each other.
One of them controls thunder, and the other is skilled in fire.
Each occupied its own territory, drawing upon the violent spiritual energy around it.
According to Wang Zheng's understanding, the enormous thundercloud and firecloud were each part of the two people's domains, colliding together.
Amidst the thunder and fire, the weather truly changed dramatically, as if the heavens and earth were undergoing a cataclysmic transformation.
However, it was clear that the burly man was at a disadvantage and was on the verge of being overwhelmed, seemingly ready to flee at any moment.
On the other hand, Chu Tianxing became more and more confident as the fight progressed. His Heaven and Earth Dharma Form had been fully condensed. Watching his former opponent, whom he could not defeat, now retreating under his pressure, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
The burly man's original crimson-gold coat was charred black by Chu Tianxing's lightning. Although it was not damaged, the surrounding spiritual energy was noticeably dimmed, which pained the burly man greatly.
Seeing that the other party was trying to run away, Chu Tianxing burst into laughter: "You hairy beast, you haven't improved at all over the years, and you still dare to take the initiative to ambush me. I'll kill you today and take you back to make soup!"
As he spoke, Chu Tianxing's figure gradually became blurred, the spiritual energy around him grew thicker, and a faint, illusory outline appeared around his solid body.
The form was clearly that of his visualization object—Kang Jinlong, while Chu Tianxing's figure seemed to appear vaguely between the dragon's eyebrows.
Strands of pure white lightning tore through the clouds and exploded beside his dragon body. Combined with the dark clouds behind him and the occasional flashes of lightning, Chu Tianxing appeared as if he were a god.
This sudden strange phenomenon startled the burly demon king opposite him, causing him to involuntarily take a few steps back.
This burly man was originally a sixth-grade Crimson Flame Eagle on the Jingxiang battlefield. He had always lived deep in Shennongjia, focusing on cultivation and detached from worldly affairs. In his earlier years, apart from killing adventurers who trespassed into his territory, he had not caused much bloodshed.
Until more than a decade ago, it vaguely sensed that the tribulation of transformation was about to arrive, so it sank into the depths of the mountains of Shennongjia, chose a secluded place, and prepared to undergo the tribulation.
Although this transformation tribulation is extremely dangerous and fraught with peril, once you overcome it, you will be like a fish leaping over the dragon gate, undergoing a complete transformation.
These strange beasts cultivate in order to achieve self-realization and transcendence.
After undergoing multiple tribulations of lightning, the Crimson Flame Eagle was in a daze and nearly died, but fortunately, it had a deep foundation and managed to pull through.
Unexpectedly, this strange beast had just been ravaged by lightning tribulation and had not yet had time to enjoy the final infusion of spiritual energy into its body. At the most crucial moment of its transformation, it unexpectedly encountered Chu Tianxing, who was adventuring in Jingxiang and had just swallowed the strange fruit.
As the saying goes, even after surviving a heavenly tribulation, there are still hardships for people!
Having just obtained this opportunity, Chu Tianxing's heart swelled infinitely. Seeing the vast heavenly might and rolling thunder before him, and seeing the Crimson Flame Eagle on the verge of death after being struck by lightning, now shedding its mortal form and transforming into a human.
Thus, the idea of slaying demons and seizing treasures, and eliminating a soon-to-be-born demon king for China, arose in advance.
Faced with Chu Tianxing's sudden attack, at the last moment of crisis, the Crimson Flame Eagle, disregarding its ongoing transformation, was forced to abandon this opportunity and begin to fight.
This resulted in his incomplete transformation, leaving him with this strange appearance that is neither human nor beast.
Although the Crimson Flame Eagle was not fully formed, it had survived the Heavenly Tribulation and had recovered considerably under the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
The story that followed was that Chu Tianxing was utterly defeated and fled in a sorry state. If it weren't for the fact that the Crimson Flame Eagle King lacked spiritual energy and had no way to sustain its power, there probably wouldn't be the Chu Tianxing we know today.
