Chapter 117: Dragon-Blood Eagle
Ye Xiao, who was hiding within the countless leaves on top of a tree, saw everything that happened here.
He saw how the members of three families coming here and conversating something among themselves. After that, all of them became quiet and they also started waiting just like the thousands of magical beasts.
It was really a very strange scene where thousands of magical beasts and twenty-seven humans were standing together. But the strangest thing was that none of them were looking at each other. They were ignoring the existence of each other.
All of their gazes were fixed at the light blue energy that was enveloping the light blue coloured flower. They were waiting for the light blue energy to disappear so that they can obtain that light blue coloured flower.
Ye Xiao did not dare to come down. He knew that when the light blue energy will disappear, there will be a bloodbath here. This place will become a battlefield. Not only those twenty-seven people will fight will each other for the light blue coloured flower, but these thousands of magical beasts will also compete with each other for the same medicinal herb.
He was only a martial artist at the Fourth Stage of the Origin Core Realm. It is impossible for him to compete with these thousands of magical beasts and twenty-seven humans.
Putting aside the thousands of magical beasts and twenty-one human, the White and Yellow furred Ape and the Purple Flame Lion as well as those six people that were giving off an aura that was in no way inferior to a Fifth Grade Magical Beasts, they alone were enough to kill Ye Xiao hundreds of times.
He knew that he can"t get his hands on that light blue coloured flower that was still spreading its fragrance throughout the entire forest.
Ye Xiao was scared but he was also very excited. It was the first time, he saw thousands of magical beasts in one place.
He was scared because of these thousands of magical beasts and he was excited because of one thing and that thing was also these thousands of magical beasts.
He thought that he will take the advantage of the battle between these beasts.
Even if he can not get the light blue coloured flower, at least he can obtain hundreds of corpses of magical beasts. Not only can he become much stronger after devouring them, but he can also help Little Yellow to evolve with those corpses.
Just thinking of this made him extremely excited.
And what if he can get his hands on the corpse of a Fifth Grade Magical Beast?
He believed that he can directly advance to the Peak of the Origin Core Realm by devouring the corpse of a Fifth Grade Magical Beast.
He was thinking and getting excited. He became so excited that he started to take long breaths.
He hurriedly calmed down and started to look at the situation below carefully. He did not want to be discovered by either of the two parties.
Not only there were thousands of magical beasts on the ground, but there were also hundreds of magical beasts flying in the air, waiting for the light blue energy to disappear so that they can directly pounce toward the medicinal herb, hold it in between their beaks and fly away.
Ye Xiao also easily guessed the ident.i.ty of those humans. Previously, when he saw the members of the Zhang Family, he only felt that there were only the middle-aged man and woman who were at the Martial Emperor Realm but here, he can feel that there were other four people besides the two middle-aged man and woman of the Zhang Family who was giving off the same aura as them. And from the aura alone, that old man was much stronger than the other five people.
The members of the three big families and those thousands of magical beasts, be it on the ground or flying in the sky, were all looking at the light blue energy with a greedy gaze.
But Ye Xiao was different from them. He was not looking at the light blue energy as he long gave up on it. He knew that he was unable to obtain it so why will he waste his time thinking of a solution to obtain that light blue coloured flower. He was looking at those thousands of magical beasts with a greedy look, especially those two Fifth Grade Magical Beasts.
He even wanted for the two Fifth Grade Magical Beasts and the six Martial Emperor Realm martial artists to fight with each other. So that he can become the biggest winner in the end.
Just the thought of this was making him crazy from excitement. Subconsciously, two drops of saliva dropped out from his mouth on his hands.
"Ehh! F*ck!" Ye Xiao hurriedly cleaned the saliva that dropped on his hands and spits down.
Those magical beasts who were far behind from here were trying to squeeze in and come in near the place from where the enchanting fragrance was spreading out.
But they were unable to do anything as there were already so many magical beasts here that there was not even a place for a little baby to come in let alone those large magical beasts.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Near the empty area where the light blue energy was enveloping the light blue coloured flower, all the magical beasts and humans were waiting together when suddenly they heard terrifying roars of some very powerful magical beasts.
Not long after that, three more magical beasts appeared near the empty area.
They were all Fifth Grade Magical Beasts. One was a Big Black Bear, one was a long White Scaled Lizard and the last one was a flying-type magical beast known as the Dragon-Blood Eagle.
The Dragon-Blood Eagle was a very powerful magical beast. It is said that the Dragon-Blood Eagles are known as Dragon Eagle because they have dragon"s bloodline within them and their bodies are that of eagles. They have very high potential.
It is said that when a Dragon Eagle is born, it already has the strength equivalent to that of a Martial King Realm. It means that Dragon-Blood Eagles are born as Fourth Grade Magical Beasts.
Among all the five Fifth Grade Magical Beasts here, this Dragon-Blood Eagle was definitely the strongest and more terrifying than others.
Not only can it fight on the ground, but it can also fly in the sky and attack from above.
Seeing three more Fifth Grade Magical Beasts, all six Martial Emperor Realm experts frowned their brows.
"Sigh! Looks like it is much more difficult to obtain that medicinal herb than what we thought." The younger brother of the current patriarch of the w.a.n.g Family said while sighing.
"Yes, it looks like, a battle between us and those Fifth Garde Magical Beasts is unavoidable. Except for these five magical beasts, other magical beasts are nothing to wary of." The middle-aged woman from the Zhang Family said.
"You are right. And only the First Elder deal with that Dragon-Blood Eagle." The second Elder of the Ma Family looked at the First Elder of the w.a.n.g Family gloomily and said.
"Yes, I also think so too." Ma Bao gave his opinion.
Hearing them, the First Elder of the w.a.n.g Family laughed bitterly and said, "You all are thinking too much. Yes, I am more powerful than all of you. I am at the Seventh Stage of the Martial Emperor Realm but I am still not strong enough to contend against that Dragon-Blood Eagle. Dragon-Blood Eagles are known for their fighting prowess as well as their ferocity. It can even fight and win against a Peak Martial Emperor Realm Martial Artist let alone me."
"How about we fight together with that Dragon-Blood Eagle? We may win, right?" Ma Bao said after thinking for a while.
"You just entered into the Martial Emperor Realm. You"ll not be that much of help even if we fight together." The First Elder of the w.a.n.g Family shook his head.
"Ma Bao, that Purple Flame Lion is already injured and it is also the weakest of the Fifth Grade Magical Beasts here. You will fight with it. Umm, both of you from the w.a.n.g Family will fight with that Dragon-Blood Eagle. One is at the Seventh Stage of the Martial Emperor Realm while the other one is at the Fourth Stage of the Martial Emperor Realm. You two should be enough to kill the Dragon Eagle." The Second Elder of the Ma Family said.
"Yes, I think we can kill that Dragon-Blood Eagle if we were to fight together with it." The First Elder of the w.a.n.g Family looked at the younger brother of the current patriarch of the w.a.n.g Family, though for ten breaths of time, and then replied.
The younger brother of the current patriarch of the w.a.n.g Family nodded his head and agreed to fight along with the First Elder.
