Chapter 755
That Azure Scale Horned Eagle flew directly to the lake . Its wings suddenly spread, and one of those huge wings slashed onto the water .
The surrounding mountains shook, and water erupted into the air . A fierce astral wind destroyed the nearby boulders .
A huge head suddenly shot out of the water . It was the head of a python . It was huge, practically the size of a small mountain .
Long Chen hadn’t expected that this serene and calm lake would be hiding such a huge python . Furthermore, from its aura, it was also a seventh rank Magical Beast .
The python had only just appeared when it spat out some black mist . A strange sound filled the air, almost like squeaking . It was as if space was being corroded .
The Azure Scale Horned Eagle flapped its wings and soared directly into the clouds . It was incredibly quick, easily dodging the poison mist .
After that, its horn began to shine . A ray of light shot out, piercing toward the python like a sword .
“This is an innate ability . ” Long Chen was completely shocked . This attack contained a locking power . It was impossible to dodge .
The ray of light was incredibly fast, and it directly struck the python’s head . Its head instantly exploded . It was killed in one hit .
The eagle grabbed the python’s corpse and began to fly back in Long Chen’s direction . The python’s body was trailing along the ground .
“A good opportunity!” Long Chen pulled Meng Qi out of the eagle’s eyesight and then jumped onto the python’s tail .
Meng Qi turned pale . “Long Chen, what are you doing?!”
Long Chen pulled open a scale and the two of them hid beneath it . He then took out a sword and stabbed it into the python’s body .
What startled Long Chen was that this python was truly powerful . Even without the protection of its scales, its flesh was extremely tough . He was almost unable to stab into it .
He fixed the sword into its body, using it as a handhold . And as expected, he had only just finished when the eagle flew higher into the air, and the python’s body also left the ground . But with this handhold, Long Chen wouldn’t be thrown off .
“This Azure Scale Horned Eagle is a seventh rank Magical Beast . It’s perfect for you . How could we just let it off so easily?” laughed Long Chen .
“You’ve crazy . This seventh rank Magical Beast possesses an ancient bloodline . Even an Ancestor level expert would be forced to run if they didn’t have a Treasure item . You really want to subdue it?” Meng Qi didn’t know what to say . Long Chen always did such crazy things .
“Foolish wife, you’ve forgotten that I am an alchemist! Since it’s carrying this python, it’s definitely planning on eating it . Hehehe…!”
Long Chen took out a dose of medicine . He rubbed it into the wound he had made with his sword . This medicine was quickly absorbed into the flesh and disappeared .
“Do you think I came without any preparations? I made all kinds of medicines to use . Poisons, laxatives, anesthetics, corrosives, aphro- . . . cough, in any case, I have everything we could want . ” Long Chen almost blurted out something inappropriate .
Long Chen had truly made ample preparations before entering the Spirit World . As he added more medicine to the wound, he whispered, “I’m adding all kinds of medicines this time . As long as it eats this python’s flesh, even if it's just a bite, with the current dosage I’ve used, it’ll immediately get diarrhea and find that it is unable to use any energy . Its body will go limp and weak . At that time, it’ll be much easier for you to place a spiritual imprint on it . ”
“Will… will that really work?” Meng Qi might have confidence in Long Chen, but she still couldn’t help but feel that this was a bit crazy . This was a seventh rank Magical Beast . She had never even thought about subduing one . Compared to Long Chen, she really was conservative .
“You’ll hurt your future man’s ego if you keep questioning him,” said Long Chen with a hurt expression .
“Leave this kind of act for Wan-er . I’m talking seriously . Are you really confident?” Meng Qi rebuked .
“Of course . As long as it eats this flesh, it’ll immediately collapse . I’ve used ten times the dosage . There definitely won’t be any problems . ” Long Chen patted his chest .
“Then hopefully the heavens will have it eat it quickly,” prayed Meng Qi .
Praying to the heavens? Long Chen rolled his eyes . If the heavens didn’t cause some extra trouble for him, he would have to light incense in thanks .
They flew for over six hours . Long Chen and Meng Qi didn’t dare to look outside, afraid of being sensed by the Azure Scale Horned Eagle .
Suddenly, a sharp bird cry rang out from the Azure Scale Horned Eagle . Long Chen felt himself falling . The python’s corpse was rapidly falling out of the sky .
He was extremely startled . What was going on? The Azure Scale Horned Eagle’s cry had been full of fury . At the same time, he heard a loud rumbling .
Long Chen hastily looked outside . When he saw what was going on, he was shocked .
At the peak of a large mountain, there was a huge bird nest . However, the nest was covered in blood now . A huge lizard was crazily devouring a chick’s corpse .
There were four shattered remnants of eggs here . It seemed like the chicks had only just hatched . Their eyes had yet to open, and they didn’t have any feathers .
There were bloodstains not far from the eggshells . Obviously, one chick had already been eaten, and the lizard was on the second .
BOOM!
The Azure Scale Horned Eagle directly charged over . Its huge claws viciously slammed onto the lizard . But when it landed on the lizard’s skin, sparks flew and an ear-piercing sound rang out like iron on iron .
Although the claw hadn’t harmed the lizard, the immense force caused it to be sent flying . It flew off the nest and crashed down the mountain .
“Nine Spike Lizard?” Meng Qi let out a startled cry .
This Nine Spike Lizard’s body was huge, around the same size as the Azure Scale Horned Eagle . It was covered in thick scales, and its short limbs seemed extremely powerful .
“Is this Nine Spike Lizard powerful?” asked Long Chen . Meng Qi was the one who was the true expert in Magical Beasts .
“Yes . Well, it’s not particularly amazing . The main thing is that its defensive abilities are too monstrous . It has no natural enemies as only a few Magical Beasts can break its defense,” explained Meng Qi . “However, it is a despicable robber, and its favorite thing is to eat the younglings of other Magical Beasts . Even if it’s noticed, other Magical Beasts can’t do anything to it with its defense . However, because its attack power is limited, it is basically just a troublemaker . It’s not suitable as a housepet . ”
“How marvelous . Even the Magical Beast’s world has such fellows that don’t walk the common path . ” Long Chen found this extremely unexpected .
The two beasts were crazily fighting now . Explosions rocked the heavens . The Nine Spike Lizard’s defense was too strong, and it could ignore the Azure Scale Horned Eagle .
It clearly wanted to eat the remaining two chicks . But the Azure Scale Horned Eagle was crazily blocking it .
Long Chen couldn’t help sighing . “Magical Beasts are so berserk, but a mother has her instincts . It actually won’t allow it to reach its children . As for humans…”
A tiger, though cruel, would not devour its cubs . Magical Beasts were even more berserk, but when they encountered danger, they would still risk their lives to protect their children .
But as for humans? Incidences of families fighting each other, even sons killing fathers, were common . Just which side was the truly cruel one?
The Azure Scale Horned Eagle was unable to do anything to the Nine Spike Lizard . It was forced to fall back over and over . Suddenly, its horn began to shine, and a ray of light shot at the lizard .
Blood splashed . A bloody trough had been cut into the lizard’s head . But the wound wasn’t fatal . It hadn’t broken past the bone .
“The Nine Spike Lizard’s defense is absolutely monstrous . Its first layer of defense is its hide, while its second defense is its bones . Furthermore, its skull is especially hard to protect its vitals . That’s why it has practically no natural predators,” said Meng Qi .
The Azure Scale Horned Eagle continued to let out a furious barrage, and it used its innate ability several times . Although it caused injuries on the Nine Spike Lizard, they weren’t fatal .
Furthermore, as it released more of its attacks, its core energy rapidly dropped . Its attacks were no longer as fierce as before .
“Long Chen, let’s stealthily go take those two chicks,” said Meng Qi .
From the current situation, in a while, the Azure Scale Horned Eagle wouldn’t be able to stop the Nine Spike Lizard from climbing back up the mountain and devouring the remaining two chicks . After all, those were two new lives, and Meng Qi didn’t have the heart to let them be eaten just like this .
“We can’t . If we want to get over there, we’ll have to go over that cliff . If we go directly, they’ll notice us, and the Azure Scale Horned Eagle will assume we want to eat its younglings, so it’ll attack us . And detouring would take too long . ” Long Chen shook his head .
Meng Qi sadly shook her head . Long Chen gently comforted her . “Let’s just keep watching . Perhaps something unexpected will happen . ”
The two of them continued to hide and watch . As expected, the Azure Scale Horned Eagle’s power was rapidly dropping . The Nine Spike Lizard had already taken the advantage .
Its hide was thick, and as a cold-blooded creature, it wasn’t extremely sensitive to pain . Its wounds didn’t affect its combat abilities . The two Magical Beasts’ crazy battle had already destroyed the surrounding forests for thousands of miles .
Just as their fight was about to reach its end, a seven-colored light flashed, lighting up the sky . A terrifying pressure descended .
As soon as that pressure appeared, the two Magical Beasts stopped fighting . Looking up, they saw a figure blazing with seven-colored light .
“Redeye Sacred Blood Phoenix!”
Meng Qi was filled with shock, her body involuntarily trembling . An existence from legends had appeared here .
