The sprawling underground space seemed to go silent instantly, and only the sound of the trickling lava beneath could be heard.Eventually, the heat in the air began to cool off as well.Whew!Seeing as it had been silent for a while, Veron and Bowen exchanged a glance from where they had been hiding in the crack before walking out carefully.Had they all died?Seeing as there was no one in sight, Veron began to tremble in fear. The flames of the Three-legged Golden Birds had been powerful enough to turn all the black armored army riders into ash— she had seen it for herself.Thus, it was entirely possible that the birds had wiped out everyone else present.Veron was of the opinion that Janoff, Tyson and all of their men had been burned to death. She did not know that Janoff and Tyson had escaped."They're gone," Bowen mused as he took a deep breath, scanning his surroundings. "It looks like the Three-legged Golden Birds burned them all to death."As he spoke, Bowen cast a war
Whew!Thirty seconds later, Veron and Bowen had managed to emerge from the hole underground. All that could be seen was that the sky was still bloody, and the pair gasped before hurrying off in the direction of the farm.The farm was surrounded with Raksasa warriors then, as well as the black armored army riders.Just a few minutes ago, someone had seen Tyson and another man escape from underground together into the distance, the nine Three-legged Golden Birds hot on their heels.The warriors near the farm had been beside themselves with shock at the sight, and called upon defense to stand guard around the farm immediately.At the sight of Bowen and Veron, the gazes of the warriors landed on the pair instantly."Isn't that Bowen? What's he doing on forbidden ground?""There's a lady from the Nine Continents with him, too…"Just as the voices rang through the air, the black armored army riders seemed to flare up in anger as they drew their long swords and roared out angrily at B
As the words rang through the air, Veron could not help but roar, "You're all disgusting! Just tell the truth that you want the magical bow, instead of making up these excuses!"As the final word rang through the air, Veron let go of Bowen's arm. She gripped her long sword, soaring into the air and piercing it in the direction of the army riders' leader.Veron was known for her short temper, and there was no way she was going to tolerate such slander."Tsk tsk…"The leader let out a chuckle, speaking in a tone full of mockery. "You've got quite the temper for a frail little lady, haven't you? Very well, I'll play along."As the words rang through the air, the leader drew his dagger before soaring upwards, launching into a fierce battle with Veron.Clang clang clang…The leader had been plenty confident at the start. Yet two rounds later he came to realize with a start that the girl before him seemed frail, but was far from weak and her sword skills were quite something.Quickly
Despite the fact that Bowen was pretty powerful, there was no way he was going to come out alive with that girl from the Nine Continents.……Over on another end.Mid-air a little over ten kilometers from the Raksasa tribe grounds, Tyson was drenched in sweat as he continued to soar forward at top speed.He snuck panicked looks behind him as he flew, unable to hide the fear in his expression.The nine golden birds were hot on his heels, trailing flames behind them that painted the sky golden-red and lit the heavens ablaze. It was a terrifying sight,Motherf*cker!Just then, Tyson was not only fearful, but also angry.He was, at the end of the day, the strongest warrior of the Raksasa tribe. To think that the great Head General would be chased down by nine strange birds like prey was such a humiliation.And that Janoff was so damn cunning! He hid himself immediately the second he got out of the cave, making Tyson the birds' target.Seeing as the golden birds were about to get t
As she called out the order, Monna's chest throbbed with pain.She could clearly see that many warriors and black armored army soldiers had collapsed in the fire, along with many other tribe members. The Nine Continents citizens doing business here, too, were burned alive.The Raksasa had only been able to achieve such success after a good amount of years, and there was no way they were going to let these monstrous birds take that away from them."Got it!"At the order, the surrounding royal warriors called out in response as they soared off in the direction of the nine golden birds.The palace royals were in charge of the Empress' safety, and were the top elites of the Raksasa tribe. They exploded all at once, constricting the air with a terrifying force."Awoo…"The nine golden birds were only all the more angered by the sight of the incoming warriors. They let out several crows, before spitting out flames from their mouths.Whew…The searing hot flames filled the sky, and a
There was hope after all. The Raksasa tribe would be saved! Monna was of the firm opinion that Darryl was the hero of the Nine Continents, and there was nothing he could not do. He had chased Donoghue into the Wild Deserted Secret Region and came back safe. He would not have any problems taking down the nine golden birds.What…Just then, Darryl arrived at the site. His chest lurched at the sight of the Three-legged Golden Birds.What… What were these spirit beasts? Why did they have three legs?On top of that, the flames they were spitting were incredibly powerful.To tell the truth, Darryl had encountered many strange flames ever since he had begun cultivating. In fact, the Red Fayette Flame in his body was only a further testament to the fact that Darryl was well-equipped with all flames.Yet it was his first time seeing the flames coming out of the giant golden birds before him.The flame was red and gold in color, bearing the type of heat that you could feel from a dist
The two golden birds paused in the middle of the chaos they were causing and zeroed in on Darryl.The next second, the two golden birds let out a series of piercing crows. They flapped their wings, charging in Darryl's direction like two golden blades."You've got quite the temper!"Darryl smirked at the sight of the incoming birds before exploding with divine energy and lifting his hands."Roar!"The atmosphere constricted instantly, followed by the appearance of nine golden dragons bursting through the air to surround Darryl.Indeed, Darryl had cast the Ascension of the Nine Dragons.The Ascension of the Nine Dragons was the first skill that Darryl had learned when he first became a cultivator. It had been over a decade since that, and he was now more than familiar with it.All that could be seen was every scale on the golden dragons glinting in the light, radiating powerful energy."Kill!"The next second, the nine dragons let out a series of howls before charging toward t
The two birds and Darryl weaved through the air, moving so quickly one could hardly catch sight of them.The sight made Monna and the ministers hold their breath, all of them praying for Darryl silently.Eventually, ten minutes passed by.Darryl and the two golden birds had battled fiercely in mid-air for countless rounds, and yet there was still no upper hand.All at once, Darryl was unspeakably panicked. He could clearly sense that the two golden birds before him did not only have razor-sharp talons— their defense was pretty powerful as well.There were many times when a blow that Darryl had cast did not do much damage to the birds. This was because their strong, bulletproof feathers had blocked off a large part of the blow.On top of that, Darryl had also noticed that every time the birds exploded with flames, the bloody sun above them would grow all the more blinding.Realizing this, Darryl could not help but frown and ponder to himself.Could it be… that the golden birds b
