As a result, wherever the four of them went, inexplicable battles broke out frequently among the ferocious beasts.
Ji Fengming was overjoyed and, with malicious intent, his steps became much heavier, often causing the ferocious beasts beneath his feet to roar in fury.
Even so.
The array spirit stones on the human body were also being consumed very quickly. The beast tide was not even halfway over, but most of the array spirit stones had already been used up.
"It seems we'll have to force our way through the last section," Shang Xiye reminded the four.
Ji Fengyao, Ji Fengming, and Hei Xiao gave a soft "hmm" and nodded in understanding, all ready for a fierce battle.
As the distance closes.
Ji Fengyao also got a clear look at the strange bird: its wingspan was three meters, its body was iron white, and its feathers shone with a silvery-iron light, making it clear that its feathers were as hard as iron.
Its beak is sharp and long, and when it opens its mouth to roar, it sounds like a beast's howl. Its beak is full of shark-like serrations. If you are pecked by it, you will be crippled even if you are not dead!
"Ancestral Beast! Didn't the Ancestral Beast become extinct hundreds of thousands of years ago? How could it exist in this world?" Ji Fengyao exclaimed in surprise.
"What ancestral beast? Isn't this just a strange bird?" Ji Fengming was very puzzled.
"They are born as beasts, but some of them evolve wings, grow beaks and feathers as they grow up, resembling birds and becoming ancestral beasts," Ji Fengyao explained to the four of them at a rapid pace. "They are the most violent and aggressive of all the demonic beasts, and also the most territorial, selfish, and domineering. Every feather on their bodies is the sharpest arrow in the world, capable of easily piercing hard stone and any ordinary metal armor you can imagine."
"Holy crap! This guy's so awesome, how are we supposed to fight him? Maybe we should go back..."
Before Ji Fengming could even utter the word "go," the array spirit stones on their bodies completely disintegrated, turning into a small clump of lime that drifted away in the wind.
The four figures were immediately exposed to the surging tide of beasts.
Just as the ferocious beasts were charging forward at full speed, they braked suddenly, leaving long tracks in the mud, and stopped right in front of the group, looking completely bewildered: "???"
Is this some kind of ghost?
Where did these people come from?
The ancestral beast, soaring in mid-air, also noticed Ji Fengyao and her three companions. The powerful aura emanating from them made it feel threatened.
"Awoo!"
The ancestral beast lightly flapped its wings, which blotted out the sky, and with a ferocious roar, flew towards the four of them.
The ferocious beasts that had been stunned around Ji Fengyao and the other three roared and came to their senses. They bared their teeth and roared as they pounced on the four of them!
"Charge out of the beast horde quickly, don't let them surround us!" Shang Xiye shouted, leading the charge towards the rear of the beast tide.
Ji Fengyao, Ji Fengming, and Hei Xiao followed closely behind, charging forward with all their might, holding nothing back.
Although the ferocious beasts behind the beast tide were all powerful mutated beasts and low-level demonic beasts, they were still forced to retreat steadily under the full force of the four.
The four of them were like a powerful meat grinder, leaving rivers of blood in their wake.
The group quickly reached the edge of the beast tide, only twenty or thirty meters away from breaking through it.
The ancestral beast was already close to the strength of a second-tier demon beast and had some intelligence, so it naturally wouldn't let the four of them break out of the beast tide so easily.
"Awoo!" The ancestral beast roared again, commanding the beast tide behind it to stop attacking the city wall and instead surround Ji Fengyao and her three companions, trying to trap them in the middle like turtles in a jar.
"This hairy beast is truly defying the heavens. It's not even at the second tier yet, and it's already so intelligent. No wonder it's a legendary ancestral beast," Ji Fengyao grinned.
