Chapter 19: Bifang Flame



"There is a bird that looks like a crane, has one foot, has red markings, is green in color, and has a white beak. It is called Bifang. Its cry is its own. If it is seen, there will be a fire in the town."

(Translation: There is a bird that looks like a crane, has one foot, red stripes, green feathers, and a white beak. It is called Bifang. Its call is its name. Wherever it appears, there will be wildfires.)

In this fantasy world, although there are legends about Bifang, no one has seen this spiritual beast for a long time. However, in the existing ancient books, all the records about Bifang indicate the power of this spiritual beast.

Even the shadow of an adult Bifang is far beyond the ability of this group of cultivators, whose highest level is only at the innate realm, to deal with.

After confirming that it was the Shadow of Bifang that launched the attack on them, Feng Shao made a decision immediately and shouted to Han Biyun: "Junior Sister Han, you will be in charge of the Tiancheng formation. Take people to the location where the Bifang wood was just now, and dig out the Bifang Flame! I will lead this big guy away!"

Feng Shao shouted as he took out a scarlet gourd from his storage ring and threw it to Han Biyun: "Use this to load the Bifang Flame, go!"

Han Biyun took the gourd and asked loudly, "Got it! Senior Brother Feng, be careful!"

At this critical moment, it was not the time for them to refuse each other. Han Biyun had followed Feng Shao down the mountain many times before, and was very familiar with this senior brother's style. She did not refuse at the moment, took the gourd and shouted to the others: "Everyone, follow me! Junior Sister Lu, come and help me!"

It was the first time for Lu Qingyuan to encounter such a situation, and she was quite nervous. After hearing Han Biyun's call, she hurried to Han Biyun's side. Among this group of disciples, Lu Qingyuan was the one with the highest realm except Feng Shao, but Lu Qingyuan had no experience in handling affairs, so Feng Shao temporarily transferred the decision-making power to Han Biyun, and then Han Biyun and Lu Qingyuan jointly maintained the Tiancheng formation.

"Junior Sister Lu, you have the highest realm among all the people here. You will preside over the formation, and I will guide everyone. While Senior Brother Shengzi is leading the strange beast away, let's go and get the Flame of Bifang!"

At this time, Feng Shao had already left the range of the Tianchen formation. The scorching wind burned his skin red, but he didn't have the energy to care about it. He took out two talismans that he bought at a high price from Linglong Pavilion, and hit Bifang Shadow with a flick of his hand. Bifang Shadow let out a sharp cry and chased Feng Shao angrily. When Feng Shao saw Bifang Shadow chasing him, he immediately used his footwork to try his best to avoid the flames spewed out by Bifang Shadow.

Although it was just a shadow, it could do almost everything that Bifang could do. It flew high up, its wings stretched nearly ten meters wide, and wherever it passed, rootless fire ignited, and the temperature of the air also increased significantly. When it opened its mouth, a ball of fire with a diameter of one meter whizzed down, and after the explosion, the range affected was at least seven or eight meters.

Facing such a violent and powerful spirit beast, Feng Shao had no intention of defeating or subduing it, because it was simply unrealistic. He put all his energy into dodging Bifang's attacks, and used his secret footwork to the extreme. However, even so, he could feel sparks falling on his body. Before long, his originally neat and clean clothes were burned with big holes, making him look like a miserable beggar.

In Feng Shao's impression, he has never been as embarrassed as he is now since he came here!

While Feng Shao was doing his best to lead away the Bifang shadow, the others also rushed to the location where the Bifang tree was originally located as quickly as possible.

Under Han Biyun's command, three of them immediately took out their spiritual shovels and used all their energy to dig. As for the other six, they tried their best to support the shield of the Tiancheng formation.

As the temperature rose, the shield's energy consumption became more intense. As the person with the highest cultivation level in the formation, Lu Qingyuan felt the Qi in her body pouring out, and the speed of consumption was so fast that she was shocked. Seeing this, Han Biyun quickly took out a few Qi pills and stuffed them all into Lu Qingyuan's mouth, saying, "Eat it quickly! Quick!"

With the replenishment of the true Qi pill, Lu Qingyuan felt better.

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook violently, and everyone was shaken to the ground. After they came to their senses, they subconsciously looked in the direction of Feng Shao, and the next moment everyone was shocked.

The shadow of Bifang was seen flying in the air, emitting blazing flames towards the ground. Feng Shao was right in the center of the flames!

"Senior Brother Shengzi!" someone exclaimed, and immediately wanted to rush over to rescue Feng Shao.

Han Biyun was quick to grab the man and shouted, "Why are you panicking? We have followed Brother Feng so many times, but have we ever seen Brother Feng fight a battle that he was not sure of? Since he said he could entangle the beast, then he can definitely entangle it! What we have to do now is to dig out the Bifang Flame as soon as possible while Brother Feng is entangled with the beast!"

After hearing what Han Biyun said, everyone managed to calm down, but they were still extremely anxious.

"Don't waste time, dig quickly! The sooner we dig out the Bifang Flame, the sooner Brother Feng will be safe!" someone shouted.

The others responded in unison, and the speed of digging suddenly increased.

Although the soil here was as hard as iron, with everyone's joint efforts, a huge pit more than one meter deep was dug out on the ground in a short time. The diggers suddenly felt a flash of light in front of their eyes, and a blazing flame suddenly rushed towards them from underground!

"Danger! Hide!"

The next moment, a dazzling column of flame shot up into the sky. Faintly, everyone seemed to see a large bird made of flames spread its wings and flew into the sky.

Han Biyun was only slightly stunned, then quickly took out the red gourd and activated it with his true energy. The red gourd then emitted a dazzling red light, looking extremely charming. Han Biyun pointed the gourd mouth forward, and the red gourd immediately absorbed the raging flames like a whale sucking water.

I don’t know what material this red gourd is made of. It can absorb spiritual fire like the Bifang Flame.

At the same time as the scarlet gourd absorbed the flames of Bifang, the shadow of Bifang suddenly seemed to sense something and immediately turned its head towards the crowd, then flew over there without hesitation.

Feng Shao was trying his best to resist the attack of Bifang Shadow, and the sudden disappearance of the attack also made him stunned. But after seeing the direction of Bifang Shadow, Feng Shao was shocked and chased after it.

The shadow of Bifang flew very fast, and soon it flew above everyone. Then, the shadow of Bifang bent its neck, and a ball of flame was about to burst out of its mouth.

At this moment, Feng Shao, who was running at full speed, threw out a bright yellow lasso without thinking, and it landed squarely on Bifang Shadow's neck. Then Feng Shao pulled it hard, and Bifang Shadow's flame jet deflected and hit the ground just a few meters away from everyone.

boom!

The flame jet from Bifang Shadow blasted a one-meter-square pit on the ground and almost knocked everyone to the ground.

Han Biyun seemed oblivious, as if she had not noticed that she had just gone through the gates of hell. She stared at the Bifang Flame, which was getting smaller and smaller as the red gourd absorbed it, and kept urging it in her heart.

Faster! Faster!

Bifang's shadow missed the target and became furious. He flapped his wings and flew high into the sky. Feng Shao held the lasso tightly and was also taken to the sky involuntarily.

"Bi-Fang-"

The Bifang Shadow circled in the sky for a moment, then uttered a sharp cry and rushed towards the ground. Seeing that the Bifang Shadow was about to hit everyone's head, Feng Shao gritted his teeth and threw out a long sword. The long sword drew an arc in the sky and finally pierced straight into the other side of the Bifang Shadow's wing.

"Bi-Fang-"

Under this stab, Bifang's shadow's body tilted and hit the ground next to everyone, and there seemed to be a trace of pain in his scream. Feng Shao was hit by Bifang and fell heavily to the ground. His internal organs seemed to be displaced under this collision, and he almost vomited blood. He took a deep breath, forced himself to ignore the severe pain in his body, rolled over and stood up from the ground, then threw his hand, and a golden flying hook flew out of his hand and nailed it to the root of Bifang's shadow's injured wing.

Feng Shao, who possessed the Tianhua Jade Slip, had hidden countless treasures in his storage ring. And now was the time for these treasures to come into play.

Bifang screamed in pain, flapping its wings wildly, and the scorching wind could almost roast a person. Feng Shao held the flying hook tightly, and if Bifang's shadow tried to fly up, he would pull it down with force.

For a moment, the man and the bird were in a stalemate.

Feng Shao gnashed his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot. The shadow of Bifang screamed and flapped its wings. Others wanted to help, but they were all rebuked by Feng Shao, and they had no choice but to let Feng Shao fight this ferocious beast alone.

After what seemed like an incense stick of time that lasted an incomparably long time, Han Biyun finally shouted, "It's done!"

The flame of Bifang was finally put into the red gourd!

The joy on everyone's faces was beyond words, but Bifang's shadow was extremely angry.

"Bi-Fang-Bi-Fang-"

The shadow of Bifang screamed repeatedly and flapped its wings, trying to kill Feng Shao. Everyone was about to rush over to help, but they heard Feng Shao roaring: "Don't come over! Get out quickly and don't worry about me!"

"But……"

"No buts! Go!"

Under Feng Shao's accumulated power, everyone had long been accustomed to obeying Feng Shao's orders. Although they were extremely reluctant, they still retreated as quickly as possible under Feng Shao's repeated urging.

They were very careful when they came here, and it took them a full hour to walk. But when they left, they gathered all their strength, and flew out like a stream of light.

The consequences of Bifang's flame being taken away also began to gradually show up. The cracks on the ground no longer spewed out blazing flames, and the temperature of the air also dropped significantly. Without the influence of high temperature and flames, everyone's flying speed increased again.

Ye Chen, who was waiting outside Bifangyuan, also noticed the changes in Bifangyuan. His eyes lit up and he understood what was going on.

It seems that the opportunity in Bifangyuan has been obtained by Feng Shao and his friends!
