Chapter 81 Black Fiery Falcon Flock
Although Meng Hanhai was still the team leader, the people in the team had a lot of complaints about him.
Especially those in the combat department, realizing that it was his erroneous command that led to the loss of four members of their combat department.
Which of these people didn't fight hard to get to this third level?
As a result, he easily ruined the game right from the start.
If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job!
As it turned out, he was incompetent and only managed to survive thanks to the advanced protective shield bestowed upon him by his ancestor, which caused others to be eliminated halfway through!
If Jin Liu and A Chen hadn't rushed out and used special methods to drive the beast king mad, they would probably have all been wiped out.
If it weren't for the fact that Meng Hanhai's face was disfigured, no one would want him to continue as the team leader.
Although everyone felt a little awkward, they all kept quiet out of consideration for face.
Besides, with only a dozen or so people, it's pointless to keep changing the squad leader.
Upon entering the second floor, everyone clearly noticed that the space here seemed much larger, unlike the view from above where each floor appeared smaller than the last.
Not long after they started walking, Meng Hanhai, who was ahead, noticed a dark cloud floating in the distance, and it seemed to be moving in their direction.
Previously, on the first floor, everyone only noticed that the sky was hazy and there was no blue sky, let alone the sun or clouds.
On this second layer, the sun and blue sky are also not visible, but the color of this dark cloud is significantly darker than the gray sky.
Suddenly, the snake-head vine trembled and cowered, and Ni Zhiyong, as the contract master, immediately sensed its fear.
"Captain Meng, be careful! The snake-head vine seems to have encountered a great terror; it's terrified!" Ni Zhiyong warned.
Because of his failure on the first level, Meng Hanhai became extremely cautious after entering the second level. Upon hearing Ni Zhiyong's reminder, he immediately shouted, "There is unknown danger! Everyone, activate the strongest defense!"
A spiritual energy shield is everyone's ultimate defense, but it is usually not released constantly in order to conserve spiritual energy.
Upon hearing his reminder, everyone tensed up. Nie Xiaoxiao even summoned her Immortal Thorn, which also wrapped up Achen, Jin Liu, and Lele.
Nie Xiaoxiao has always been a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. Before, on the arched bridge in the second level, the four of them cooperated to fight the enemy. Now that they have entered the third level, which is not the kind of level where you have to defeat the opponent to win, she naturally wants to protect them.
At this moment, Ah Chen released his mental net, wanting to investigate what dangerous beasts were around.
Finding nothing, he then focused his attention on the moving dark cloud in the sky.
The other members of the team were focused on their surroundings and no one paid attention to the dark cloud in the sky.
However, as a psychic, Ah Chen has a wider range of perception of danger, which is why he went to investigate that dark cloud.
When he finally saw the full extent of the moving cloud, he exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no! That cloud in the sky isn't a cloud at all, it's hundreds of birds!"
"What? Hundreds of birds? What kind of birds?" Nie Xiaoxiao asked hurriedly.
She didn't doubt that he was exaggerating, because she knew that although Ah Chen was young, he would never make baseless accusations.
"It's a bird with entirely black feathers, edged with fine gold stripes, a crimson head, and a large, thick beak with a sharp tip. I don't know what kind it is," Achen answered honestly.
"I know, I know! The bird you described must be the legendary Black Falcon!"
It is a fourth-tier raptor, and it always appears in a flock, at least a hundred of them.
"And the beak of this Black Fire Falcon is particularly sharp. It is said that without a spiritual energy shield, even a cultivator in the Spirit Connection Realm cannot withstand its pecking. It can peck off a piece of your flesh in one bite!" Lin Zixia, a puppet master, said with a look of horror.
"Oh no! Are we all going to become food for these Black Fire Falcons?" Leng Qiuchan said, shivering.
"Don't worry! There's still poison, isn't there?" Nie Xiaoxiao said lazily, glancing sideways at Ni Zhiyong.
"Junior Sister Nie, why are you looking at me like that? You know, my Snake Head Vine can't possibly spray that much venom at the same time."
"Besides, they can all fly, so the venom couldn't possibly spray that high." Ni Zhiyong quickly shook his head.
"Who said it should spray the venom so high? Come on, let it spray some venom into the bamboo tube, then mix it with my Soul-Devouring Poison Powder, and pour it into this specially customized magic weapon, the Fireworks Tube."
"This firework tube of mine can condense poison powder and snake venom into poison bombs. Just one shot at those annoying birds and they're all taken care of!" Nie Xiaoxiao said calmly.
Upon hearing that all that was needed was for him to produce some venom, Ni Zhiyong immediately relaxed.
However, while directing the snake-head vine to spray venom into the bamboo tube, he whispered, "Can you really guarantee that one shot will poison them all?"
"If one shot doesn't work, let's try two!" Nie Xiaoxiao said irresponsibly.
"But what if two shots don't work?" Ni Zhiyong asked.
"What else can we do? Charge in and kill them!" Nie Xiaoxiao said, shrugging.
"Ah? So your poison bomb is completely unreliable!" Ni Zhiyong's face turned deathly pale.
“I can help build two layers of netting to temporarily trap these birds inside. This way, the poison bombs will have a wider effective range,” Achen said.
"Oh? That's great! Even if we can't poison them all, we can still use fire!"
"I can provide poisonous herbs. Burning them will release poisonous smoke, which, while not as effective as poison bombs, will still reduce their combat effectiveness," Nie Xiaoxiao said excitedly.
"And my Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Soul-Severing Umbrella can also reduce their combat power," Lele quickly said.
"And those of us in the combat department, everyone unleash your strongest attack on those damn birds, we should be able to take down a few!"
Ge Hui, who had readily agreed to take charge of the left-side defense, brandished his sword. He was a sword cultivator and was almost ready to develop sword intent.
However, he was still missing a little something, so his biggest goal during this training was to condense sword intent in battle.
As Meng Hanhai listened to everyone chatting away, with no one taking a part, he felt somewhat displeased.
However, the most important thing right now is to kill those birds, otherwise everyone will be stuck at the second level of this spirit realm.
Fifteen minutes later, the moving dark clouds finally drew closer, and everyone could see their true form.
This flock of Black Fire Falcons looks ferocious; their claws are thick and their bodies are over ten feet wide. It feels like they could easily grab a person and lift them into the air.
Ni Zhiyong trembled with shame. As a plant cultivation major, he only wanted to cultivate spiritual plants well. This time, he squeezed into the top twenty with his snake-head vine, and his hero complex surged, thinking that he could make a name for himself in one battle.
As a result, after being besieged by the herd of rhinoceroses, his courage was almost completely exhausted.
Seeing the more than one hundred birds of prey that blotted out the sky, he wished he could just activate a teleportation talisman and escape.
The flock of birds got closer and closer to everyone. When they flew to a height of more than ten meters, Achen moved.
He formed hand seals and created an enlarged version of the flat space.
During this time, he had been drawing talismans in the air and was already familiar with constructing flat spaces. Now he was just expanding the scope of this flat space and did not need to seal it completely. It would be enough to condense it into a net with his divine sense.
From infancy, he learned to condense his mental energy into a fishing net. The net doesn't need to be too fine; it just needs to be as thick as a mental cage.
After all, these Black Fire Falcons are extremely large, and they cannot squeeze through even a half-meter gap.
Everyone looked up and saw the giant net that Achen had conjured, which was three meters high and dozens of feet long and wide.
No one expected that an eight-year-old beginner student could achieve this using his divine sense.
Meng Hanhai hadn't taken him seriously at all. Even though Achen had driven the unicorn rhinoceros king mad with his divine sense attack, he thought it was just a lucky accident that he had taken advantage of the situation.
Only now, seeing the giant net he had condensed with his divine sense, did he finally understand that Jin Liu was not his formidable rival at the Ten Directions Academy at all; it was this junior brother Zuo Chen who was.
No wonder he was able to stay in the top three for months and live comfortably in Shangqingyuan.
No wonder Nie Xiaoxiao, this fearless little devil, would willingly live in his courtyard as his attendant.
But it turns out, he was the one who was hiding his true abilities!
