The attack happened in an instant; with a forceful bite, the wolf snapped the pheasant's slender neck in two.
Only after the deaths of eight pheasants did the flock realize what was happening and launch an attack on the uninvited guests.
"Giggle giggle!"
!
A loud, clear crowing suddenly rang out, and the flock of chickens flapped their wings in unison, instantly creating gusts of wind around them.
As a gentle breeze appeared, the surrounding branches and leaves trembled slightly, as if blown by a gust of wind, and the fine rain also tilted at an angle.
Lin Qian narrowed his eyes, utterly astonished. These pheasants had actually awakened supernatural abilities!
The pheasants gathered a large amount of breeze together, forming whirlwind-like vortexes that instantly attacked the oncoming wolves!
The wolves, sensing the power of the wind, were all startled and tried to flee, but how could they outrun the wind?
Whirlwinds swept by, and wolves were struck one after another, flying high into the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
The whirlwind lifted them up to a height of ten meters. These wolves were just ordinary animals. Although their bodies had evolved and developed, a fall like that was not easy for them. If they were unlucky, they would break their legs and feet, not to mention internal injuries.
The wolves, having fallen to the ground, almost immediately fled as soon as they got up, while the pheasant flock did not pursue them.
Looking at the flock of pheasants who had just used their abilities, Lin Qian saw that they were all panting heavily and looked exhausted, with less than half of their strength left. He knew in his heart that these pheasants could not use their abilities continuously.
The wolf was utterly defeated and fled; now it was the tiger's turn to appear.
Lin Qian took a leisurely step and leaped out of the bushes.
"roar!
!
The tiger's roar swept past, accompanied by a streak of light that flew up.
"Puff puff puff!"
!
Dozens of pheasants were instantly killed and fell to the ground. Little Flying Sword Xiu turned around and returned to his sea of consciousness in the blink of an eye.
The pheasant flock, which had just proudly driven back the wolves, was reduced to dust and dirt under Lin Qian's attack, utterly vulnerable.
"Cluck cluck cluck..." A weak and panicked cry rang out among the fallen pheasants; they were the ones Lin Qian had deliberately kept alive.
Five of the stronger pheasants, their legs severed, were flapping their wings desperately, instinctively struggling to survive.
The tiger's paw pressed down on the wing of a pheasant, and its spiritual sense probed in.
The results of his personal investigation were much more detailed. After a series of investigations, Lin Qian confirmed that the pheasants were not spirit beasts.
Lin Qian slowly exhaled. Fortunately, it wasn't a spirit beast; otherwise, with such a special situation, their family's status as tigers might have been in jeopardy.
Although pheasant flocks are not true mythical beasts, their abilities are quite unique.
They are beings somewhere between mythical beasts and spirit beasts. Under certain special circumstances, their bodies successfully transformed spiritual energy into spiritual power, thus awakening supernatural abilities.
However, their innate talents were not enough to allow them to evolve into spirit beasts. Therefore, these pheasants were unable to break through the constraints and awaken their intelligence. The biggest difference between spirit beasts and wild beasts is intelligence.
Without the development of intelligence, no matter how strong the body becomes, one is nothing more than a wild beast.
Moreover, because it is not due to natural evolution, all the alpine snow chickens have awakened the same ability, but this ability is much weaker than a real superpower, only about one-tenth the strength.
Don't be fooled by the seemingly powerful whirlwinds summoned by the pheasants; they were actually the result of the combined breezes from over fifty pheasants.
If it were a normally awakened superpower, one would probably be able to summon a whirlwind with just a pheasant.
Furthermore, they are quite ordinary in terms of physical fitness, not much different from ordinary animals, as evidenced by the fact that they almost exhausted themselves after using their abilities only once.
If it were a spirit beast, it would never be this tired after using its special ability once. Although using special abilities will cause consumption, most of the consumption is spiritual power rather than physical strength.
Clearly, there were no exceptionally talented individuals among this group of snow chickens; they were all "lucky half-finished products" whose abilities were unexpectedly activated by the energy of the heavy rain.
This is normal. Spiritual energy is a magical energy, and evolution has only just begun. It is not unreasonable for any form of evolved species to appear in this process.
However, spirit beasts are still the best evolutionary form at present. Evolution failure is the current situation for most ordinary animals. If spirit beasts were so easy to evolve, they wouldn't be called spirit beasts.
Furthermore, judging from the size of these pheasants, they have generally evolved once or twice, but they are still inferior to wolves in terms of both physical strength and attack power.
Without the "pseudo" superpower, the flock of pheasants would have no chance of repelling the wolf pack.
These conclusions gradually became clear in his mind, and Lin Qian drew a new conjecture from the pheasant.
The weaker the species, the lower its growth potential and the lower its growth rate.
This aligns with his earlier prediction that large predators have an evolutionary advantage over smaller animals.
This time, however, Lin Qian was certain that small animals, especially weak species, would have a lower success rate in evolution.
This is good news for Lin Qian. He is a tiger, a creature that already stands at the top. What he fears is not a lack of talent, but rather that the animals that were originally suppressed under his control will turn the tables and break the balance.
