A clear phoenix cry resounded as scarlet flames swept out from Mo Ling's body. It was like a momentum that could incinerate the heavens, causing the temperature in this region to rise. Even space had vaguely distorted.
"Phoenix flames?!"
At this moment, the expert of the Thunder Crow Clan, who was making a move against Mo Ling, had also sensed the abnormality of the flames and exclaimed in shock. Shortly after, he retreated without any hesitation. At the same time, black Spiritual Energy burst out, forming into a barrier before him in an attempt to block Mo Ling's attack.
He never expected that Mo Ling, who should be the weakest in their view, would actually possess such shocking power. Furthermore, how could someone from the Jiu You Sparrow Clan cultivate the phoenix flames?
Although the Jiu You Sparrow Clan possessed a trace of the bloodline of the primordial Undying Bird, the Undying Bird was a variant of the Phoenix Clan. So even if it had been awakened, it wouldn't be the same type of phoenix flames.
The Phoenix Clan was a supreme clan in the Spiritual Beast Realm. They were prideful and powerful, and they had always treated other clans with disdain. It was so much so that they wouldn't even place the Dragon Clan in their eyes. There were many bird-type Spiritual Beast Clans that possessed a trace of the Phoenix Clan's bloodline. It was also because of this trace of the Phoenix Bloodline that allowed these Spiritual Beasts to stand out in the Spiritual Beast Realm. Thus, the Phoenix Clan had an extremely high position in the bird-type Spiritual Beast Realm.
Sizzle!
The scarlet flames swept out, instantly incinerating the black lightning that was obstructing it.
In the end, under the terrified gaze of the expert of the Thunder Crow Clan, it swiftly engulfed him.
Argh!
A fiery silhouette fled in a pathetic state with flames blazing all over his body.
A mournful shriek resounded. A brief moment later, he desperately used his Spiritual Energy to extinguish the flames. But at this moment, he was already on the verge of death from the flames. His entire body was emitting black smoke, making him look extremely pathetic.
At this moment, how could he still have the slightest will to fight?
He no longer dared to fight for the Spiritual Blood Paste here and his silhouette retreated in a pathetic state.
The battle between Mo Ling and the expert of the Thunder Crow Clan only lasted for an instant.
After that, it was a crushing defeat. Of course, this was also because the latter had been careless. He'd never expected that the seemingly weak Mo Ling would actually conceal such shocking strength.
Just now, he had fallen into a passive position from the very beginning, and in the end, he didn't even have a chance to counterattack before he was defeated.
When Mo Ling defeated the Thunder Crow Clan's expert, Mu Chen, who had been paying attention to the commotion from the corner of his eyes, also retracted his gaze in astonishment.
It turned out that Mo Ling actually had such powerful means. No wonder she could obtain a spot for the Jiu You Sparrow Clan. However, if she was a phoenix, how could she be a member of the Jiu You Sparrow Clan?
Isn't the Phoenix Clan incomparably arrogant?
Why would he deign to come to Jiu You Sparrow Tribe?
Mu Chen shook his head in doubt as the Dragon-Elephant Wheel appeared in his palm.
He clashed with another expert from the Thunder Crow Clan.
Boom!
At the instant of collision, the expression of the Thunder Crow Clan's expert changed because he sensed an indescribably terrifying energy sweeping over.
In that energy, there seemed to be the roar of a dragon and elephant that resounded.
Under the impact of that energy, his attack had been easily destroyed. It was so much so that before he could even circulate his Spiritual Energy, the dragon-elephant wheel had turned into a streak of light and broke through his attack.
Thereafter, it heavily slammed against his chest.
Poof.
A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth as the expert of the Thunder Crow Clan was blown back in a pathetic manner.
He lowered his head to look at the bone-deep wound on his chest, and his face was filled with panic.
How could a human that looked to be in the Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm possess such shocking strength? In that instant of collision, he could clearly sense that the other party's physique and Spiritual Energy had surpassed him.
That human was simply pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger!
As thoughts flashed in his heart, the Thunder Crow Clan's expert could only take the opportunity to retreat with injuries and no longer dared to touch the meteorite. He already knew that they had misjudged the Nine Netherbird Clan's formation this time. Although the Nine Netherbird Clan's formation seemed weak, it was just a facade on the surface.
The two experts of the Thunder Crow Clan that tried to snatch the Spiritual Blood Paste had been defeated in an instant, causing the faces of the two Seventh Grade Sovereigns of the Thunder Crow Clan, who were obstructing Jiu You and Mo Feng, to drastically change. At this moment, how could they not know that they had been tricked by the other party?
"Good, good. The Jiu You Sparrow Clan has a good method!" The black-robed man clenched his teeth.
However, Jiu You and Mo Feng paid no attention to him. On the contrary, their attacks grew even more ferocious, causing the two Seventh Grade Sovereigns of the Thunder Crow Clan to be flustered and they couldn't pay any attention to Mu Chen and Mo Ling.
While Jiu You and Mo Feng were entangled with the other party, Mu Chen and Mo Ling had descended towards the colossal meteorite. The two of them gathered together and Mo Ling blinked her eyes towards Mu Chen as she smiled. "Big Brother Mu Chen, how was it?"
Mu Chen raised his thumbs and smiled. "Very formidable, you've exceeded my expectations."
Receiving Mu Chen's praise, a smear of pride appeared on Mo Ling's face, revealing the character of a young girl.
"You're from the Phoenix Clan?" Mu Chen curiously asked.
Hearing his words, the smile on Mo Ling's face froze for a brief moment and her watery eyes turned a little dim. She did not reply to Mu Chen.
At the sight of this, Mu Chen was stunned, but he immediately understood that there must be some secrets that couldn't be revealed. Thus, he immediately changed the topic, "Let's make the best use of our time and take the Spiritual Blood Paste away."
Mo Ling nodded her head.
Mu Chen landed on the colossal meteorite. As he approached, he realised that the blood aura contained in this meteorite had exceeded his imagination.
On the surface of the meteorite, there was a bloody lustre constantly gushing out, causing the entire meteorite to be dyed blood-red, which made it look extremely bewitching.
"Such a dense blood aura …"
When Mu Chen saw this scene, he couldn't help licking his lips. Compared to the meteorites that they had previously encountered that contained the Spiritual Blood Paste, they simply paled in comparison.
"I really don't know how strong the Blood Spiritual Paste inside is."
Mo Ling's face was also filled with expectation. Along the way, they had never seen a meteorite with such a dense blood aura. Thus, they could predict that the Spiritual Blood Paste inside wouldn't be comparable to those that they had previously obtained.
"Why don't we take it out and take a look?"
Mu Chen smiled and no longer hesitated. He suddenly stomped his foot on the ground and a terrifying power wreaked havoc. Instantly, huge cracks spread out with his foot at the centre like a huge spiderweb. In just a few breaths of time, it had completely covered the meteorite.
Although his foot seemed slow, it had unleashed all the power in his body without holding back.
Huge cracks spread out and the meteorite also emitted a deep explosion. The ground collapsed and the dense blood aura gushing out became even more ferocious.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As the explosion of the meteorite swiftly spread out, a blood aura that was roughly a few dozen feet in size gushed out from the meteorite. Within the blood aura, Mu Chen could clearly see a head-sized ball of blood shooting out and was about to flee.
"Trying to escape?"
Seeing this, Mu Chen smiled. With a flick of his finger, a surge of Spiritual Energy swept out. In an instant, it wrapped around the ball of blood that was emitting a bloody light and sent it back.
The blood aura slowly fell towards Mu Chen and he stretched his hand out to catch it. Looking at it, his eyes couldn't help narrowing.
Within the blood-red light, there was an egg-shaped object. However, the surface of the object was transparent, and there was something vaguely taking shape within it. It seemed to be an embryo, but the shape of the embryo was extremely strange. It wasn't in the shape of any Spiritual Beast, but rather, it seemed to be in the shape of various Spiritual Beasts, and it didn't seem to be one.
This Spiritual Blood Paste was no longer in the shape of mud. It looked as if it possessed spirituality.
Standing to the side, Mo Ling was also shocked as she looked at this object, before her eyes lit up and she said with joy, "This is the Spiritual Blood Paste Embryo. Because the blood aura is too powerful, it possesses spirituality. However, it's impossible for it to possess spirituality. Otherwise, it might be able to take form after tens of thousands of years and be no different from a genuine Spiritual Beast."
When Mu Chen heard her words, he was also a little startled. But shortly after, he understood that it was the same logic as some treasures. Once it reached a certain level, it would be able to possess spirituality.
"This Spiritual Blood Paste Embryo is comparable to a hundred strands of Spiritual Blood Paste that we've previously obtained."
Mo Ling exclaimed as she smiled. "If we sell it in the Great Thousand World, it would be worth at least 5,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid."
5,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.
Mu Chen smacked his lips. Even if he emptied himself, he wouldn't be able to take out that much Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.
"Looks like our luck is pretty good."
Mu Chen smiled as he stored the Spiritual Blood Paste Embryo. At this moment, the meteorite beneath their feet had gradually started to crumble due to the Spiritual Blood Paste Embryo being stripped away. Presumably, it would soon turn into rubble and dissipate.
"Let's go."
Mu Chen called out to Mo Ling and the two of them flew out, returning to the meteorite that they were previously on.
Seeing the two of them returning smoothly, Jiu You and Mo Feng no longer tangled with the two Seventh Grade Sovereigns of the Thunder Crow Clan and had immediately returned.
When the black-robed man saw this scene, his face was pale as he fixed his eyes on Mu Chen and Mo Ling. After a brief moment, he clenched his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll consider your Jiu You Sparrow Clan ruthless this time. But this matter will not end so easily. When we reach the Divine Beast Origin, my Thunder Crow Clan will settle this debt with you guys!"
"Anytime." Jiu You sneered.
The black-robed man cast an eerie glance at the four of them and couldn't be bothered to speak anymore. He turned around and the four of them swiftly left on the meteorite.
Mu Chen looked in the direction of their departure and knew that the enmity between him and the Thunder Crow Clan had grown. But with the Spiritual Blood Paste Embryo, it was all worth it.
