You might have imagined Yang Dingtian fleeing towards safety, but you never expected his destination to be the camp in the Central district.
"It's not the Heavenly Ladder...that's true. In its current condition, attempting the Heavenly Ladder would only worsen its injuries, and it could even die there. Rest and recuperation are the best option."
[But...going to a camp with only a few weaklings at the peak of the Celestial Realm? A few random "Top 100" experts could easily wipe them out, right? The camp's rule against fighting doesn't apply to the inner ring's top geniuses!]
[You sensed a potential upheaval and immediately increased your speed. Yang Dingtian's burning blood power had largely subsided, making him no longer a match for you. You could easily kill him before he entered the camp.]
[We only delayed until now, waiting for it to weaken further and become easier to crush.]
At this moment—the distance between the human and the bird is 1,300 li, and the distance between the bird camp and the bird camp is 17,000 li!
[When you struck down with your palm from afar, Yang Dingtian felt a surge of energy behind him. He tried his best to dodge, but was still struck in the wound on his right wing. The blood of the Yang Bird spilled out, and he fell to the ground.]
The phantom of the Golden Crow reappeared, but it was much fainter than when it was in its prime, and its middle leg had retracted slightly—the consequence of burning its bloodline.
Yang Dingtian let out a long, mournful cry, which echoed far and wide, carried by demonic energy. This was the native language of the Golden Crow, which you could not understand.
[(In reality, you still wouldn't understand the common language of the demon race.)]
But you saw in the distant camp, after the sun's cry, another bright radiance rose—that was its guardian bird, another sunbird.
With Yang Dingtian's unparalleled strength at the second realm, why would he need a guardian bird?
Even if it encounters danger, and it can't solve the problem, then what guardian bird could?
Of course!
That's a bird on the verge of a breakthrough!
The sunbird that flew into the camp was inferior to Yang Dingtian in both bloodline and combat power, but it had already reached the edge of breaking through to the third realm. Its reserves were sufficient, and it could step into the third realm at any time!
The sunbird is thirteen thousand miles away, flying towards us. Its aura is rising; it is breaking through to a higher realm!
But it will still take it more than a minute for it to get here!
[During this time, you relentlessly attacked Yang Dingtian, who had crashed to the ground!]
[Severely injured, his demonic energy exhausted, the end of his blood-burning burst period, and his bloodline downgraded... after all these negative buffs, Yang Dingtian's combat power had weakened from nine times that of a peak second-realm cultivator to the point where he couldn't even fight at twice his strength.]
Despite its still formidable physical strength, it was powerless to retaliate and was relentlessly bombarded, creating a crater hundreds of meters in diameter!
[Flickering flames of light floated in the air around the deep pit; these were its smashed body, its blasted flesh and blood!]
[Skeletal remains were also flying everywhere, the birds' organs were smashed and scattered, Yang Dingtian was almost certain to die at this moment!]
"But that's not enough, still not enough!" You want another kill reward!
[The Yuan Power, like a blade, scraped and plucked the feathers from the neck of the young Yang Bird, then cut it off, just like butchering a bald-necked chicken.]
"This chicken's neck is really tough; I couldn't cut it even after several attempts!"
Finally, with the thirteenth strike, you severed Yang Dingtian's bird head. Holding its fist-sized head, you used your Yuan Power to lift the corpse and rush out of the pit, fleeing towards the Yuan Crystal Mine.
[And the guardian bird, which has already begun its breakthrough, is chasing you for two thousand miles!]
It's molting, it's undergoing a dramatic transformation!
"You're still not dead? You fucking still not dead!" You felt the Yang bird behind you was now a threat, so you grabbed Yang Dingtian's head and started whipping its large belly.
[This Yang Bird Prince is too tough. You angrily pry open its beak and aim at—]
"Ha—Te!"
【Bang!】
[The blessing of the battlefield for all races has finally arrived!]
Despite the assistance of others, you ultimately overcame a ninety-fold gap in strength, using your late-stage Celestial Realm cultivation to forcefully kill a half-blooded Golden Crow that was at least four realms away from reaching the next level!
A pool of ultra-high concentration, pure primordial liquid is being poured upon you!
[Open your mouth wide and inhale like a storm! This reward is far superior to the basic rich primordial energy; it's an upgraded version of primordial liquid resource, with higher absorption efficiency and a stronger boost to cultivation!]
[The range of your controlled energy has increased from less than twenty miles to a radius of thirty-three miles!]
[His strength has more than doubled, surpassing Yang Dingtian at his peak, and is now eleven times stronger than a peak second-realm cultivator!]
"But this is far from the limit. When I truly reach the pinnacle of the Celestial Realm, the primordial energy I can control will extend to a radius of over sixty miles, surpassing even the newly advanced three realms!"
You glanced back at the guardian bird; its advancement was still in progress, but its aura was already inferior to yours—the combat power gained during advancement couldn't compare to the speed at which it absorbed pure essence liquid at a rate of forty times its original potential.
The distance between you is eight hundred li.
"Now—the situation has reversed!"
[You turn around and charge back; you want to interrupt the opponent's advancement!]
[The son of King Jia, and Luo Yong who wanted to become a supreme being in the Primordial Era... If Ninth Brother can do it, why can't you?]
The distance of eight hundred li was merely the blink of an eye when two powerful figures, each at the "half-step third realm," were traveling towards each other.
[Boom!]
[The demonic energy and elemental power of the Yang Flame exploded together!]
Amidst the scattered flames, the guardian bird was knocked away, but in the blink of an eye, it stopped its wings in mid-air, forcibly stabilizing its body, as the crimson sun fire transformed into a ring that wrapped around its body.
The guardian bird's eyes showed alertness, but you merely shook the bird's head behind the small stone pool, and it instantly lost control and its reason.
"Human! How dare you kill my race's future true king!?"
