Seeing that Qin Shi had successfully refined the Kun Peng's wings, Long Xu stroked his beard in satisfaction and smiled, "No need to thank me, this is also your own opportunity. I really didn't expect that the all-powerful Kun Peng dog would not be able to escape from Gu He's hands in the end."
"Little fellow, now that you've refined the Kun Peng's wings, don't be anxious. Continue to nourish it with your blood essence. When flesh and blood grow on the wings, the power of the Kun Peng will awaken. The Kun Peng's wings are like the clouds in the sky, moving tens of thousands of miles. It can attract the power of heavenly lightning. Combined with your lightning attribute, other than speed, it will also be of great help to you in terms of attack," Long Xu said faintly.
Qin Shi nodded his head in confidence. Just from the process of descending from the sky, every time the wings flapped, Qin Shi could feel a dense wind and lightning intertwining, as if a thunderstorm was about to descend.
If flesh and blood could grow, when he fought with others in the future, the power of wind and lightning alone would be enough to control the entire battlefield.
Long Xu let out another long sigh. Looking at the Kun Peng's corpse that was gradually collapsing after Qin Shi destroyed its wings, his old eyes were filled with sadness as he shook his head, "After thirty thousand years, karma has its retribution. It's a pity that the dead can't be resurrected."
"Senior, please restrain your grief." Qin Shi lowered his head slightly, but he didn't know how to persuade him.
Separation in life and death, the eight bitterness of life, it was destined that there was no way to disobey.
"Little friend, don't worry, I've already seen through it."
Long Xu stroked his beard and shook his head. Then, his old eyes looked through the corpses of tens of thousands of fierce beasts towards the end of the corpse fire. After many days of advancing, everyone was already infinitely close to the depths of the barrier. Long Xu said faintly, "Let's continue. The corpse fire is getting thinner the further we go, we should be reaching the end soon."
"Yes, everyone, keep up. I'll maintain a Soul Barrier along the way, we'll be faster."
Qin Shi turned around and waved at everyone. After that, the bone wings on his back were retracted back into his bones, turning into ancient runes that intertwined with each other. It was similar to the Eight Trigrams of Taiji in ancient times. In the center, there were two pairs of terrifying bone wings. They were extremely domineering and looked like a landscape of mountains and rivers.
Qin Shi maintained a soul barrier along the way, preventing the Long Family members from being affected by the corpse fire. Following that, he quickly approached the end of the corpse fire.
Without the influence of the Corpse Fire, everyone's speed instantly increased by several folds. Very quickly, they reached the end of the Corpse Fire. It was a quiet and long corridor. Although the Corpse Fire was gone, the corpses of the ferocious beasts on the ground did not decrease at all. However, the corpses here no longer had any physical bodies. Only countless white bones were left, making it look like a land of skeletons.
Looking along the quiet corridor, there was a winding and rugged path. On the left and right walls, there were actually all kinds of drawings formed by countless white bones. There was a group of dragons playing with pearls, and there was a soaring Kun Peng. It was extremely shocking.
"Just how many ferocious beasts did Gu He kill back then?"
Qin Shi could not help but be shocked. The most frightening thing was that all the skeletons here were Divine Beasts ranked in the top hundred of the Ancient Ferocious Beasts List.
In these years, Qin Shi believed that he had come into contact with Divine Beasts quite a few times. So, he was even more clear on the power of Divine Beasts. Back then, in the Mortal Realm, a Divine Beast in the top hundred was enough to shake the eight regions. Right now, in this Spirit Formation, it was actually a pile of bones of Divine Beasts.
"Back then, Gu He could be considered a disaster for the Beast Realm. Even the four Divine Beasts could not escape," Long Xu said without hiding anything.
"Back then, if it wasn't for the Human Sovereign, even you would have died at Gu He's hands."
"Even Senior almost died at Gu He's hands?"
Qin Shi's understanding of Gu He changed once again. Qin Shi was clear about Long Xu's strength. Although he was not as strong as Fufeng, he was still at the peak of the Transcendent Realm. Even Ming Xuan was at a disadvantage against Long Xu, and he was actually not a match for Gu He.
But thinking about it, Gu He was able to exchange three moves with Zhe Tian.
"Let's continue. After this long corridor, we might reach the birthplace of the Supreme Divine Talisman. Ming Xuan and the others might have already entered. Let's not fall behind," said Long Xu. Everyone sped up again.
Suddenly, when everyone was halfway through the long corridor, Qin Shi could not help but frown. Then, a stern look flashed in his eyes. After entering the long corridor, his Soul Force had enveloped the surroundings. On the left side, Qin Shi clearly felt a ripple in the Spiritual World. An extremely powerful force had intruded, and it instantly turned into cold air, smashing in everyone's direction.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Qin Shi suddenly paused and let out a forceful cry. His feet stepped off the ground and his body quickly flashed to the left.
Qin Shi's sudden change caused the members of the Long clan to be startled. After all, the members of the Long clan were all at the World Realm or above. Even if they did not have Spiritual Strength, their five senses were still extremely strong. So, they quickly sensed danger and quickly dodged to the two sides.
Bang!
In the next moment, a powerful lightning glow suddenly smashed down from the sky. Immediately, it exploded like a sudden clap of thunder, smashing a huge deep pit at the spot where Qin Shi and the others were previously at. Most importantly, there was a lightning-like golden flame burning within the deep pit.
"This is the Roc Clan's Lightning Wings Demonic Flame?"
Long Xu's old figure took a step back. When he saw the situation in the deep pit, his face became gloomy. Then, he looked at the end of the long corridor with an extremely cold gaze.
Rumble!
On the wall at the end of the long corridor, there was a huge picture of the Roc that was thousands of feet tall. At this moment, the white bones in the picture seemed to have come to life. They jumped out from the wall, and their eyes were extremely fierce. They locked onto Qin Shi and the others.
"The white bones of the Roc?
The white bones actually came to life? "The members of the Long family were shocked to see this scene.
Qin Shi also slightly frowned because he felt a strong Soul Force from the white bones. It was similar to the Devil Talisman, but there were some differences. It felt like … an independent Devil Talisman. Most importantly, from the white bones of the Roc, Qin Shi actually felt an extremely strong pressure. That power actually reached the peak of the Transcendence Realm?
"Tsk tsk, Long Xu?
I really did not expect that after tens of thousands of years, you are still alive. "Suddenly, the white bones of the Roc let out a hoarse voice.
Just from the white bones, it was impossible to determine who the other party was. However, when the white bones of the Roc spoke, Long Xu's old face suddenly changed, and he actually became serious.
That subtle movement did not escape Qin Shi's eyes. Qin Shi couldn't help but frown. A Roc Clan that could make Long Xu so afraid of it must have an extraordinary identity.
"Senior, do you know the identity of this Roc?" Qin Feng lowered his voice and asked.
Long Xu's cold eyes were like ice swords. He said coldly, "Yes, even if he turns into ashes, as long as his voice does not change, I can recognize him."
"This guy, is the Clan Leader of the Roc Clan from thirty thousand years ago!"
"He is the Clan Leader of the Roc Clan?"
Qin Shi's face was gloomy. No wonder even Long Xu was afraid of him. However, Qin Shi did not expect that the Clan Leader of the Roc Clan would also die in the hands of Gu He.
"No, he is different from others. I think he should be buried here because Gu He saved him. Otherwise, his soul would have been scattered, and he would not even have the chance to reincarnate."
Long Xu seemed to be recalling the past and said, "In the beginning, he joined forces with the Puppet Group. In the end, the Human Emperor used three sword strikes to shatter his meridians and shattered his world. He was seriously injured and fled to the Demon World. After that, there was no news of him. Rumor has it that he died in the Demon World, and some people said that he was buried in the deep sea. Now that he appeared here, he should have met Gu He who was seriously injured by Zhe Tian in the Demon World, so he was taken here by Gu He."
"However, although he was buried in the hands of Gu He, his life was saved. Otherwise, if he really fell into the hands of the Puppet Group, Zhe Tian would definitely turn him into a part of the Devouring Heaven Void. In that case, his soul would leave this world, and it would be impossible for him to be reborn." Long Xu said lightly.
Qin Shi suddenly understood. At this time, he slightly narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed under his cold eyes.
"Hehe, he joined forces with the Puppet Group. It seems that this fellow is not a good person."
"Little fellow, the Roc Clan is extremely greedy. In the Beast World, they even eat the Dragon Clan, the Phoenix Clan, and the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake," Long Yan said.
Long Xu narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "In comparison, Ming Xuan came here just now and saw this bastard. Ming Xuan is not a stranger to him, so the two of them probably reached some kind of agreement. Little fellow, step back a little and help me take care of the people of the Long Clan. I will take action and deal with this bastard."
Qin Shi hesitated for a moment, but he did not refuse and nodded. The strength of the Roc Clan's leader was at the Transcendent Realm, and he was not someone he could deal with now. Moreover, he still needed to preserve his strength to deal with Ming Xuan.
Seeing Qin Shi step back, Long Xu's old face seemed to be covered in frost. He said in a dark and cold voice, "Old dog Kun, you died early thirty thousand years ago. We never had the chance to resolve our grudge. Now that we have met here, it can be considered as fate. Today, I will take revenge for all the grudges of the Dragon Clan."
"Tsk tsk, with just you?
Long Xu, it's not that I'm looking down on you. No wonder you were criticized in the Long Clan back then. After thirty thousand years, you still haven't broken through to the Transcendent Realm. You won't have any chance in this lifetime, and you will die here today. "Old Ghost Kun coldly smiled.
Immediately, old ghost Kun's body suddenly moved. His huge mountain like body shook as wind and lightning appeared on the pair of bone wings on his back. His speed was extremely fast as he approached Long Xu. He was just like a biting cold gale, making it impossible for anyone to catch sight of his body.
Qin Shi was shocked when he saw this scene from behind, and he furrowed his brows.
Old Ghost Kun's speed was definitely the fastest he had ever seen. Even the current him had to admit defeat. He suddenly understood why Long Xu wanted him to refine the Kun Peng's wings. The Kun Peng's wings seemed to have the power to control wind and thunder. If he met someone at the same level as him, even if he wasn't his opponent, no one would be able to stop him if he wanted to escape.
