The Butterfly and the Green Mantis simultaneously turned their heads, staring at the Human Race Cultivator who had abruptly appeared not far away.
Their gazes revealed an extremely dangerous aura.
Feeling the Spirit Beast's gaze, Zhou Rui chuckled, “If you become my Spirit Pet, you can join the Hanging Sky Cave and enjoy abundant Cultivation resources. Why fight to the death here?”
Zhou Rui marveled at his own profound good fortune.
He had just entered the Cangmang Mountains, and Spirit Beasts were already delivering themselves to his doorstep.
Moreover, it seemed both Spirit Beasts were of quite good quality.
If he could take these two Spirit Beasts as his Spirit Pets, it would greatly elevate his status within the Sect!
Upon hearing Zhou Rui's words, the Green Mantis bared its large scythes and sneered, “A mere little brat dares to take this Lord as a Spirit Pet?”
“Little brat?”
Zhou Rui smiled and shook his head, “As beasts of the mountains, you simply don't understand the benefits of a great School.”
As he spoke.
His gaze suddenly turned cold, and he directly bit the tip of his tongue.
He spat out a mouthful of tongue-tip blood.
Then he formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
The two Spirit Beasts didn't understand why, but they knew that Human Race Cultivators possessed various unfathomable powers.
Therefore, they dared not be negligent.
The Butterfly flapped its wings, and the powder on its wings glowed.
The Mantis brandished its scythes, emitting a sharp white light.
Both mobilized their spiritual power, ready to strike.
Suddenly, they heard Zhou Rui loudly exclaim, “Chì!”
In an instant.
An extremely peculiar aura burst forth from Zhou Rui's body.
The Butterfly and the Green Mantis felt no strangeness.
They had already mobilized all their spiritual power, directly unleashing their innate Divine Ability!
The Butterfly flapped its wings!
The Mantis swung its scythes!
The imagined powder and sharp white light did not appear.
The Butterfly and the Mantis suddenly realized that they seemed unable to unleash their innate Divine Ability.
Even.
Even the spiritual power they had just mobilized showed signs of dissipating.
“You, what did you do?!”
The Green Mantis and the Butterfly were greatly alarmed, completely unable to comprehend the situation before them.
The Fire Luan, however, frowned deeply, vaguely guessing the reason.
The Human Race was different from other powerful races; it did not possess innate Divine Abilities.
However, the Human Race could Cultivate various Cultivation Techniques and gain unimaginable powers.
Even.
Some members of the Human Race were naturally favored by the Heavenly Dao and could obtain certain special talents.
The Human Race Cultivator before them seemed to have no special talents, but he must have Cultivated a peculiar Cultivation Technique.
Giving him the ability to suppress Spirit Beasts!
Trouble!
Why would such a powerful Cultivator appear in the Cangmang Mountains?
What was his purpose?
The Fire Luan gazed into the depths of Wanshou Mountain, her brows furrowing even more.
She had to find a way to inform her benefactor.
The Fire Luan looked beside her nest.
A Scarlet Snake lay quietly there.
This was Little Red's companion, left here specifically to deliver messages to the Fire Luan.
The Fire Luan quietly plucked a feather, leaving a trace of magical power fluctuation on it.
Then, she suddenly poked and pulled at her heart, drawing out a drop of essence blood!
The Fire Luan tossed the feather and essence blood to the Scarlet Snake.
The Scarlet Snake immediately understood the Fire Luan's meaning.
It directly opened its mouth and swallowed the heart essence blood, then held the feather in its mouth.
Without any delay.
It rapidly crawled towards Little Red's Immortal Cave.
Under the Fire Luan's heart essence blood's blessing, the Scarlet Snake's aura surged significantly.
Even its crawling speed increased several times!
Zhou Rui did indeed notice the nest in the distance.
However, he also understood that a powerful Spirit Bird must reside in the nest.
Zhou Rui was here to frame the Bi Xiao Palace and did not intend to provoke this Spirit Bird.
Looking at the suppressed Mantis and Butterfly, Zhou Rui snorted, “Heh, beasts are beasts; how could they understand the Human Race's power?”
He stepped towards the two Spirit Beasts, explaining, “My Spiritual Root is unusual; I cannot Cultivate Five Elements Cultivation Techniques, but I can Cultivate a powerful Cultivation Technique specifically for Spirit Beasts!”
As Zhou Rui approached.
The pressure on the Green Mantis and the Butterfly intensified.
Seeing the Human Race Cultivator smiling at him, the Green Mantis gritted its teeth.
It directly put away its scythes, knelt down, and swore allegiance.
“Heh heh, not bad~”
Seeing the Green Mantis's appearance, Zhou Rui was very satisfied!
Then.
He looked at the Butterfly again, “How about it, become my Spirit Pet? Your Bloodline is even stronger; I will give you the best Cultivation resources.”
The Butterfly snorted, about to speak.
Zhou Rui waved his hand to stop it, “I advise you to think carefully before speaking. Because with my current Cultivation, I can only maintain this state for a quarter of an hour! If you don't agree within a quarter of an hour, you will die!”
The Green Mantis chimed in, “Master, I can strike and eliminate this ignorant beast for you~”
Zhou Rui nodded with a smile.
Waiting quietly.
After a while.
Zhou Rui looked at the Butterfly not far away, his expression smiling, but his voice extremely cold, “One last chance, surrender or die?”
As Zhou Rui spoke, the Green Mantis bared its long scythes.
The Butterfly spread its wings and snorted, “Our Lie Fen Butterfly clan will never be coerced…”
“Heh heh, what a pity, wrong answer!”
Zhou Rui shook his head, then pointed forward.
The Green Mantis immediately felt the pressure on its body vanish completely.
It looked at its enemy not far away and sneered, “Die…”
The Lie Fen Butterfly's gaze was icy, its entire body emitted a faint glow, and the powder on its wings trembled slightly.
It was actually vaguely resisting Zhou Rui's suppression!
“It's burning its essence blood, kill it quickly!” Zhou Rui was greatly alarmed and immediately ordered the Green Mantis.
The Green Mantis also knew there was no time to delay and directly bared its long scythes, “Yes!”
At the same time.
The Mantis looked at the nest in the distance, “Master, there are two Fire Luan eggs in that nest, and they are about to hatch in these two days.”
Zhou Rui narrowed his eyes, “Oh?”
— — — —
The Scarlet Snake crawled rapidly!
Besides the Crimson Luan's heart essence blood, it even burned its own essence blood!
The two combined.
Causing the Scarlet Snake to burst forth with speed far exceeding its own.
It did not slow down, nor did it hide.
Even when passing through Bear Mountain Lord's territory, it still maintained its fastest crawling speed!
Heading straight for Little Red's Immortal Cave!
Fortunately.
Bear Mountain Lord seemed to have placed all his attention on the Spirit Stone mine and did not notice this little snake.
Other creatures also dared not provoke this Scarlet Snake, which was erupting with a terrifying aura.
After more than half a day.
The Scarlet Snake finally returned to Little Red's Immortal Cave!
After briefly listening to the information the Scarlet Snake brought back, Little Red's gaze was serious.
It quickly crawled to the Safe Zone.
Looking at the feather Little Red brought, Little Guo chirped happily.
Flapping its wings, it flew to Little Red and directly took the feather in its mouth.
Feeling the magical power fluctuations coming from the feather.
Little Guo was stunned.
“Chirp chirp! Chirp chirp!”
Li Zhuo stroked Little Guo's head, frowning slightly, “A Human Race Cultivator, with clothing similar to Feng Yanping's, whose Cultivation Technique can affect Spirit Beasts?”
“Could it be that Hanging Sky Cave has discovered Feng Yanping's matter?”
“I'm a bit concerned.”
“It's more reassuring to go and see.”
The Little Squirrel: ?
“You coward are willing to go down the mountain again?”
Li Zhuo ignored the Little Squirrel and looked at the sky.
It was already evening.
“I haven't used my cheat opportunity today, Little Red~”
Little Red very obediently brought back the Scarlet Snake that had delivered the message.
Li Zhuo then stroked the Scarlet Snake and began to add points.
“Because it burned its essence blood, its total attribute points are a bit low, and there are Bloodline Impurities…”
As Li Zhuo stroked it.
The originally weak little snake actually became active.
“Alright, follow Little Red~”
“Hiss hiss, yes!”
After finishing this, Li Zhuo sat cross-legged under the Daosheng Qingwen Banyan.
Soon after.
Li Zhi walked out of the Treasure Pavilion.
It quickly crawled onto Li Zhi's shoulder and said, “As expected, still a coward, actually changed bodies!”
Little Guo flew onto his hand, standing quietly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
He was going home.
Heh heh~
