Chapter 47: The Crisis Begins

Chapter 47: The Crisis Begins

A roar shook the land. Even on the outskirts of the vast Cangmang Mountains, the colossal sound could be heard. The powerful figures fleeing from the scene felt their legs go weak, with many collapsing onto the ground.

The mounts were even less cooperative, their bodies trembling uncontrollably as they crouched, shivering in fear and daring not to lift their heads. They continually kowtowed in the direction of the Great Wilderness.

In the deepest part of the mountains, a terrifying aura swept across the world. The four mighty beings engaged in fierce combat, reminiscent of the time before the heavens were created. At times, blazing fires roared, at others, dark clouds obscured the sun, and iron rods streaked across the sky.

This was an unprecedented battle. Had it not been for the suppression of the vast mountains by dozens of sacred bones, stabilizing the land, it was hard to imagine what destruction would have occurred.

Amidst the chaotic mist, a bird's cry pierced the heavens. A fiery-red bird screeched in fury, clashing intensely with its opponent, stirring up a sea of red flames that scorched half the sky, the heat almost unbearable.

A great roar resounded, shaking the heavens and the earth. Its opponent, with a majestic aura that seemed to dominate the world, erupted with a burst of radiant light, using powerful divine techniques to suppress the heavenly fire.

Anyone witnessing this would be dumbfounded. The fiery-red bird's opponent was a gigantic bird of prey. Despite its roar resembling that of a beast, shaking mountains and rivers, if not for the primordial sacred bones stabilizing the mountains, they would have surely cracked.

With a thunderous crash, the giant wings stretched across the sky, covering it like a dark cloud, dimming the red flames significantly. Enormous claws descended, reaching for the fiery-red bird.

This fierce beast was colossal, filling the sky with its massive wings. It was as if a hundred thousand mountains were pressing down, and its ferocious aura made one's soul tremble.

The sharp cry of the fiery-red bird rose, despite its small size, its might was unparalleled. When it collided with the giant claws, a clang sounded, and sparks flew.

In their fierce clash, the enormous bird of prey covered the sky with dense black mist. Its blood-red eyes, enormous as two blood moons, were the only visible part.

The immense bird of prey was boundless. As it spread its wings, it soared upwards, its sheer size almost too great for the sky to contain. Its attack power was unmatched; each flap of its wings caused the heavens and earth to tremble.

The fiery-red bird struggled greatly due to its injuries from a prolonged battle with a being wielding an iron rod, which had ended in a mutual injury.

Fiery red streaks slashed through the sky as the fiery-red bird's body sparkled with dense symbols, its beak, gleaming like red diamonds, emitted intense rays of red light.

This was an unparalleled divine technique. The radiant light transformed into translucent red swords, sharp and fiery, slashing towards the giant bird of prey.

The enormous bird of prey, resembling a dark cloud, let out a beast-like roar, sensing the imminent danger. It spread its wings and instantly vanished into the sky.

At the same time, the dark clouds roiled. The bird of prey fled into the endless sky, its iron feathers spread wide, with symbols flashing and covering the entire sky, shooting endless dark rays downward.

Clangs resonated as divine light erupted across the sky. The dark rays collided with the red divine swords, producing a sound like a comet striking the heavens, causing a thrilling spectacle.

On the other side, the howling gale shattered the heavens. The giant iron rod, held in a pair of furry hands, swept across the world, clashing fiercely with the towering being. Each collision was like the opening of the heavens, with chaotic energy spreading.

Radiant light and auspicious energy flowed from the unearthed artifact, but the four mighty beings did not immediately seize it. They were too focused on their battle with each other.

With these four beings present, no other creatures dared approach. Even the demonic apes and the fiery bull demons, ancient and rare, could only tremble in fear from a distance, not daring to come close.

The battle grew fiercer, with these unimaginable supreme existences fighting with all their might, exuding a terrifying aura that shook the eight directions, making all living things tremble.

With a thunderous roar, the heavens quaked. A fearsome giant claw came from the sky, striking towards the fiery-red bird, with divine light surging like waves crashing against the shore. This was an assassination attempt. The towering being, eyes glowing a deep green, suddenly attacked, abandoning its previous opponent with the iron rod to strike at the fiery-red bird.

The fiery-red bird screeched in anger, its wings flapping violently. It formed a tornado of red flames, spinning fiercely, attempting to engulf the giant claw.

At the same time, the massive bird of prey dove down, crossing paths with the being wielding the iron rod hidden in the chaotic mist. It spanned the sky, even grander than the dark clouds, emitting towering black mist. Its blood-red eyes shot out two massive blood spears, flying ahead.

The heavens and earth trembled violently, as the four mighty beings swiftly changed opponents, attacking each other in a life-or-death struggle.

The mountains were vast and magnificent, with countless towering peaks standing side by side. Bright symbols lit up the sky, some red as blood, others pitch black, or crystal white, shining across the world. The primordial sacred bones of ancient species had activated, stabilizing the mountains. Without this, even the shockwaves descending from the sky would have caused a disaster.

On the distant outskirts of the mountains, the powerful figures, trembling with fear from their very souls, stumbled and fled. The area was too terrifying, and it was hard to imagine what kind of creatures were causing such fear. Just the aura alone made them collapse, unable to resist bowing in reverence, their hearts filled with dread.

At this moment, they wished they could immediately escape to a legendary ancient land for safety.

In the stone village, the willow trees stood tall, their tender branches swaying. The villagers, though anxious, were not as terrified as the outside powerful beings, clearly protected.

"The battle in the mountains is intense. I wonder what kind of sacred artifact is causing such a frenzy."

"It feels like a mysterious power is locking down the mountains. Otherwise, the entire area of fifty thousand miles would likely face catastrophe."

Shi Feijiao and Shi Linhu whispered anxiously, unsure of how long the calamity would last or how terrible it was.

Suddenly, a long cry came from the sky. A fierce bird, covered in green scales, with silver wings, appeared.

"Ah, it’s Auntie Qinglin Hawk! It has changed, its green wings have become silver!" exclaimed the little one, looking up at the sky.

"Chirp chirp!"

Dapeng, Xiaoqing, and Ziyun were excited, flapping their wings and rushing to the edge of the village, chirping at the sky.

The Qinglin Hawk had transformed, its wings shimmering with silver light, like they were made of silver, emitting a sacred aura. Having consumed the blood and flesh of the Suan Ni, it had undergone a metamorphosis.

It was clear that its aura was far more terrifying than before, its strength having skyrocketed.

With a gust of wind, the Qinglin Hawk landed, folding its huge silver wings. The three fledglings immediately rushed over, rubbing against its body.

At this moment, the fierce bird was very uneasy. It had escaped from the mountains, and the battle in the deepest part of the mountains was so terrifying that even with its sealed power, it made all beings tremble.

"Don’t go out, Aunt Qing. Stay in the village for now," said the little one, stepping forward.

The villagers gathered around. They had formed a strong bond with the descendant of the ancient demonic bird and had faced life-and-death challenges together. They were all hoping for its safety.

The Qinglin Hawk nodded, having come to avoid disaster.

The battle was fierce, and from the depths of the mountains, roars like tsunamis echoed, sweeping through the skies and the earth, with a terrifying presence. The astonishing bird cries, like celestial sounds from beyond, were soul-shaking.

The battle had lasted several days and was still ongoing.

The powerful figures had finally retreated to their respective tribes but remained deeply shaken. Even from tens of thousands of miles away, they still felt the terror and sensed that something ominous was about to happen.

The fall of the three tribal leaders and the catastrophic defeat in a single village had naturally shocked the major tribes. Moreover, the emergence of a mountain treasure and the unimaginable supreme existence engaged in the battle was even more unsettling, causing tremors of fear.

“This land is on the brink of chaos. We don’t know how it will end,” murmured an elder of a major tribe.

“Let’s hope the chaos ends soon,” many people prayed.

In the depths of the Cangmang Mountains, a pure white sacred object was being fiercely contested among the four mighty beings. They battled relentlessly, occasionally extending their massive claws to grasp the divine object.

With a thunderous crash, the chaotic energy surged, sending the pristine white sacred object flying far away, piercing through the symbols scattered throughout the mountains. The dozen or so primordial sacred bones could no longer contain the area.

With another thunderous crash, a gigantic beast’s foot emerged, rising upright, shrouded in mist. Its dark, eerie eyes surveyed the surroundings. “This sacred object is of great importance. The fewer who know about it, the better.”

“Then let’s kill everyone. Start with the human race and wipe out all the indiscreet races and beings on this land,” agreed the fierce bird. It emerged from the chaotic mist, its wings spreading across the sky, covering the endless mountains below. Its enormous, blood-moon-like eyes exuded a terrifying aura.

With a booming sound, an iron rod was thrust out, as massive as a mountain, its formidable presence held in a furry hand. The being wielding it was also enveloped in mist, swinging the iron rod with overwhelming power.

Next came the fiery-red bird, bursting forth with a blaze of fire.

The four beings displayed unimaginable divine might. As they fought and roared, they shook the boundless land, rendering the primordial sacred bones ineffective.

“All beings, heed my command and flatten this land,” the eerie-eyed being in the mist issued the order with growing coldness.

“Go and clear all obstacles,” the fierce bird no longer roared but spoke human language. Its voice rumbled as it issued its command, its blood-moon-like eyes cold and intimidating.

The chaotic mist swirled, and the pristine white sacred object floated, about to fall into the hands of the being wielding the iron rod. The other three terrifying entities emitted howls and surged forward, pursuing it together.
