It was ridiculous to say the word 'exterminate' to the Dragon race. Moreover, the Snake Spirit didn't hide his identity. Whether it was the Black Dragon's mount or the dragon horn on his head, they could prove his identity. Previously, the young man of the Roc race hadn't thought about it. However, after hearing the Snake Spirit's introduction, he seemed to have realized it. He immediately shut his mouth and let the Snake Spirit hang him in front of the Black Dragon's mouth without saying a word.
I didn't know if he was scared out of his wits, but he didn't say anything after he was hung up. It gave us some peace and quiet. We sat by the bonfire and chatted until midnight. Then, we went to sleep.
The next morning, after the Snake Spirit and I woke up, we went to check on the guy hanging from the Black Dragon's mouth. We were surprised to find that he was sleeping soundly. Although the Black Dragon's hot breath had curled his hair, he looked comfortable and calm. He didn't look like he was hanging from the mouth of a ferocious beast, but more like he was lying on his own bed.
It seemed that the frightening method that I had thought of last night wasn't suitable for him.
I asked the Snake Spirit to wake him up. I untied the rope and brought him to me.
The Snake Spirit held grudges. After I brought him to me, I said sarcastically, "How was it? Did you sleep well last night?"
The young Roc race member shook his head. "It's normal for us Roc race to eat wind and drink dew. Of course, it wasn't comfortable to be hung for a night, but it wasn't torture either."
His attitude was neither servile nor overbearing, which made the Snake Spirit uncomfortable. He continued to say sarcastically, "So, after thinking for a night, do you still want to exterminate our Dragon race?"
"No one can exterminate the noble Dragon race. I apologize for what I said yesterday."
After being rejected twice in a row, the Snake Spirit's anger could no longer be vented. It was very depressed.
I looked at him from the side and found it interesting. Yesterday, he was arrogant and cocky. Today, he had completely changed.
Since he was being reasonable, I didn't need to make things difficult for him. I smiled and sat next to him. I asked about his origin and the reason why he was here.
As I had said yesterday, he was the direct grandson of the Roc race's Monster Emperor Tenger. His name was Bart.
The Roc race had a custom. During the coming-of-age ceremony, they had to capture an eagle-type ferocious beast.
Because eagle-type vicious beasts were very difficult to capture, most people of the Great Peng Clan would choose vicious beasts that were at the same level or lower than their own.
As for Bart, who was the Demon Emperor's biological grandson, although he only had the cultivation of a Demon King, he was very ambitious and directly chose the Green-eyed Eagle, which was in the Demon Saint Realm. That was why he had traveled thousands of miles from Wind's Breath City to this remote border area.
When we saw him yesterday, he really wasn't bluffing. He really was trying to capture the Green-eyed Eagle. However, because his cultivation was too low, he couldn't face the Green-eyed Eagle head-on. He wanted to lure the Green-eyed Eagle into the trap he had set up in the forest. He wanted to exhaust the Green-eyed Eagle's strength first, and then he would hunt it.
In that case, we wronged him yesterday.
Of course, I wouldn't apologize to him. I changed the topic and asked about the situation in Wind End City.
At this moment, Bart told us everything he knew and immediately started to explain. He told us that Wind Breath City was a city that floated in the sky. Because it was so high, even the wind had to stop here. That was why it was called Wind Breath City.
Floating in the sky... That sounded interesting. I couldn't help but recall the floating island that I had seen in Chi You's skull tomb. Could it be that Wind Breath City was also a floating city like that?
Thinking about it, it was unbelievable. The floating island in Chi You's tomb was only the size of a few houses. As long as there was power to support it, it wouldn't be difficult for it to float in the sky.
Wind Breath City was one of the largest cities in the Monster region. With the size of Rapids City, it was at least dozens of square kilometers. How much power was needed to support such a large city that floated in the sky?
As I was lost in thought, the Spirit Snake came over and asked me how we should deal with Bart.
He had an eager look on his face, and it was obvious that he didn't have any good intentions.
I shook my head. With Bart's identity, we couldn't kill him. Since he was willing to cooperate, there was no need to torture him. It would be better to let him bring us to Wind Breath City to get in touch with the Roc race's Monster Emperor to understand the second ancient beast.
Of course, with my identity, I temporarily couldn't get in touch with the Monster Emperor. This matter could only be handled by the Spirit Snake. With his identity as a dragon, it shouldn't be difficult for him to participate in this matter.
As such, the Spirit Snake could only follow him back. I would need to find an opportunity to avoid the Monster Emperor and sneak into the ritual to awaken the beast, just like what I had done in Rapids City.
With a plan in mind, I instructed the Spirit Snake to bring Bart back to Wind Breath City.
The Spirit Snake unwillingly agreed. However, Bart told me that he had to first hunt a Green-eyed Eagle. If he couldn't complete this adult trial, he wouldn't be able to return home.
I immediately took out the Green-eyed Eagle's Beast Pill. Who knew that he would shake his head and say that this trial could only be completed with one's own power?
Yesterday, he was still urging us to give him the Beast Pill. Today, he was so serious. I smiled and didn't fuss over it. There was still some time before the ritual to awaken the beast in Wind Breath City so there was no need to hurry.
I told Bart that we would help him find another Green-eyed Eagle and give him three days to hunt it. It would be best if he could succeed. If he couldn't succeed in three days, then there was no need to waste any more time and just take the Beast Pill to report back.
Bart thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Thus, the three of us boarded the boat and urged the Black Dragon Beast to set off.
According to Bart, the Green-eyed Eagle was the most commonly seen Mythical Beast here. Adding to the fact that the Dark Dragon Beast was extremely fast, it didn't take long for us to leave the territory of the Green-eyed Eagle. In the afternoon, I detected the aura of another Mythical Beast. I urged the Dark Dragon Beast over to take a look. It was indeed another Green-eyed Eagle.
After Bart informed me, he immediately jumped off the boat. The Spirit Snake and I changed direction to look for the other Monster Saint beast.
My cultivation had yet to fully recover and I didn't have much God's Power left. We couldn't stay idle during this period of time.
As for Bart, I left a Dao Qi imprint on him so I didn't have to worry about him escaping.
Three days passed by in the blink of an eye. The Snake Spirit and I didn't stay idle. With the help of the Black Dragon Beast and the Green-eyed Eagle, we obtained a total of eight Earth Grade Beast Cores, two of which contained ancient bloodlines.
These eight Beast Pills allowed my cultivation to recover slightly and I was already very close to the Monster God realm. My God's Power had also recovered quite a bit and formed a golden ball of light in my body.
Combined with the situation when we faced the Qiongqi beast, this golden ball of light should be enough.
After three days, the Spirit Snake and I returned to the place where we parted ways. We followed the aura of the Dao Qi imprint and found Bart.
At this moment, Bart was extremely miserable. There was a big hole in his abdomen and his whole body was covered in green blood. Beside him was the corpse of a huge Green-eyed Eagle. There was also a hole in the Green-eyed Eagle's chest. Bart should have obtained the Beast Pill from there. At this moment, he was holding it tightly in his hand. Even though he was severely injured and was on the verge of death, there was still a smile on his pale face and he seemed to be extremely happy.
I frowned. Even though he had successfully killed the Green-eyed Eagle, his injuries were extremely severe and it was extremely likely that it would affect his cultivation in the future. The result of this kind of trial was almost meaningless.
After walking over to check on his situation, I asked him, "You're severely injured and it's possible that you won't be able to increase your cultivation in the future … … Is it worth it for a moment of glory?"
Bart spat out a mouthful of blood before replying with a chuckle, "Of course it's worth it. We can talk about my future cultivation in the future. I've already achieved my goal, haven't I?"
He was really open-minded.
I shook my head. Even though we met by chance, there was something about this brat that I admired. Moreover, we still needed to make use of him. There was no harm in helping him.
I didn't say much and mobilized the God's Power in my body. A golden thread separated from the golden ball of light and shot into his body with a flick of my finger.
