Chapter 34: Shocking Inexplicable Change
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Under the scrutiny of that deeply serene gaze, her heart suddenly filled with unease as she raised her hand onto her cheek and asked softly: "Why is Big Brother Murong looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?"
He did not answer and only smiled gracefully: "Let us be on our way!" And he turned and started to continue their way forward.
Feng Qing Ge paused a moment before she caught up and followed at his side as they walked deeper into the woods.
As they walked, she would occasionally tilt her face slightly to the side and look at the dignified countenance. He was just so perfect, so gentle, which made her fall so uncontrollably hard for him, made her heart palpitate for him, mesmerized by him, even if that meant that she would have to live her life with someone else's face, there would be no regrets…..
On the other hand, Feng Jiu was caught in a rather wretched situation. Because the two bears behind her had already been chasing her for more than two hours.
She had initially thought that she would be able to shake them off easily but the speed the two bears had been able to sprint had been unexpectedly fast and while running away, the reverberations she was able to feel under her feet and the occasional loud roars coming from behind did not allow her to slow down in the slightest.
She couldn't afford to reduce her speed, but to run at that pace without stopping, even the deities wouldn't be able to last!
"Argh! Stop chasing me already! If you make me mad, I will really fight you with everything I have!" She screamed with her head thrown back, her speed not reducing, but she was already panting very slightly.
She had merely picked a bunch of magical herbs! Did they need to chase after her all this way for more than two hours for that! ?
"Roar! Roar!"
The only response she got was just two loud roars from the bears with their undiminished speed.
She spotted a thick and strong tree in front of her and she turned her head to glance behind while gasping for air before she sped up her legs. And just as she was nearing the big tree, she bent her knees into a slight crouch and she leapt up with her hands extended to grab onto a branch, before quickly leaping up onto the branch and up into the big tree.
"Whew! I'm exhausted."
She was done running. She sat high up upon the tree branch panting heavily as she saw the two bears quickly having caught up to her reaching the bottom of the tree in just a few breaths. The bears then attempted to use all four of their paws to climb up. Fortunately, the tree she chose was not only sturdy, but its tree bark was smooth and slippery, making it difficult to climb.
"Bam!"
As expected, one of the bears who had climbed about one meter above the ground fell onto ground its four paws waving in the air and Feng Jiu could not help herself but laugh at the sight.
"But, what kind of effects does that stem of magical herbs really have? Why would it make both of you chase after me so persistently for so long?" She retrieved the stem of herb she had picked earlier from her Cosmos Sack to take a look at it and as she had never seen it before, she didn't know what kind of use it had.
"Roar roar!"
The two bears at the bottom of the tree had immediately upon seeing her take out the stem of magical herb, started roaring loudly again. Unable to climb the tree, the two bears combined their strengths and shook the tree, looking like they were thinking of shaking her out of the tree.
The tree shook violently, almost causing her to fall out of it. She held on to the tree with one hand and shouted down below: "Are you tired of it already? Thinking of taking this magical herb away from me? You can jolly well forget about it."
"Roar! Roar roar roar roar!"
The two bears were infuriated and their angry roars sounded endlessly, shaking the tree so badly that Feng Jiu was thinking that she cannot stay up there any longer. Hence, she kept the stem of magical herb away and began to look around her, thinking to leap from this tree to another, to find a way for her to escape.
However, just as she stood up, the sky suddenly rumbled with a loud noise, sounding just like a loud thunderclap that had descended from the clouds. A powerful wave of oppressive aura fell from the clouds above as well and a strong wind suddenly kicked up under the overwhelming aura. The wind gusts were so strong the trees in the woods were swaying and the fallen leaves o the ground were thrown up into the air in the swirling currents.
"Woo woo arh….."
"Roar!"
"Woo!"
The terrified sounds from the various beasts in the woods rang out, a discordant symphony of animal cries reverberating throughout the woods.
At that same moment, Feng Jiu saw the two towering bears at the bottom of the tree suddenly fallen to the ground in trembling heaps, all curled up in terror…..
Chapter 35: Ancient Mythical Beast
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Feeling every bit of the heavy oppressiveness in the air, Feng Jiu raised up her head to look into the sky. That was when she saw that the entire sky was covered with a mass of cumulus clouds brilliantly lit up in fierce fiery blaze. And the blazing fiery coloured clouds gathered and slowly took shape to turn into a mesmerizing Fire Phoenix with its wings fully spread. It was a glorious sight to behold and so beautiful it caused endless pairs of eyes to stare at it transfixed…..
At that moment, the strange phenomenon in the sky stirred up many instances of ruckus in many parts of the land. Almost all the countries surrounding the Sun Glory Country had spotted the phenomenon in the skies above, and powerful exponents from everywhere were suddenly highly excited by the sight.
"Manifestation in the Heavens! That is the sign a Sacred Beast is born!"
"Clouds of blazing fire, an image of a phoenix! My Heavens! It's the Ancient Sacred Beast, the Fire Phoenix! Hurry!"
The exponents from the various surrounding countries had after recovering from shock, gotten highly excited and joyously set off towards the Sun Glory Country's Nine Entrapment Woods. Some rode on flying swords, while some rode their flying beasts, and there were even some who used magical items that allowed them to travel a thousand miles in a day…..
They all had only one goal, and that was to seize the Ancient Sacred Beast who had descended onto the mortal realm!
Some still not as powerful cultivators who were not capable of vying with the highly skilled exponents could only watch on as the exponents moved out towards the Sun Glory Country's Nine Entrapment Woods and say with a sigh: "To think that a place so lowly like the ninth grade Sun Glory Country would have a Ancient Sacred Beast appear in it, no one could have expected that!"
"I really wonder what kind of person would that Sacred Beast fall to?"
"The most powerful exponents had all rushed there. The tiny Sun Glory Country would not be able to keep defend themselves against all the others and keep the Sacred Beast for themselves. I think the Sacred Beast will fall into the hands of someone from other countries."
"Heh heh, that might not be the case. Who doesn't know that destiny plays a bigger part when it came to Ancient Sacred Beast such as this. I think the fact that the Ancient Sacred Beast's fiery clouds had manifested above the Sun Glory Country means that someone with a highly fortunate destiny is there."
"That's also true. After all, when the Ancient Green Dragon descended, hadn't it been the same thing when exponents from all over had rushed there immediately as well? In the end, not a single one among them managed to even see the Sacred Beast."
"Now that you mention it, it is really rather strange. The Ancient Green Dragon descended more than a decade ago but over the years, besides the sighting of the phenomenon when it descended, no one had ever gotten a glimpse of the Ancient Green Dragon ever since! No one knows just who the owner of the Ancient Green Dragon actually is till today!"
"The appearance of a Sacred Beast would rock people from the entire land. We will surely hear something about it in the near future."
The few of them looked in the direction of the Sun Glory Country and in their hearts, they thought: [Another Ancient Sacred Beast has appeared. Looks like tumultuous days are near…..]
While back in the Nine Entrapment Woods, the mass of people heading into the deeper reaches were highly elated.
"Look! It the blazing fire cloud and the image of a phoenix! The Sacred Beast descending is the Ancient Fire Phoenix!"
"I heard that a Sacred Beast will be appearing, but I had not expected for it to be an Ancient Sacred Beast. It's just fantastic! We must hurry and get there before everyone else and seal a contract with the Ancient Sacred Beast!"
And in the deepest reaches of the Nine Entrapment Woods, Ling Mo Han's deep eyes had a strange glint in them when he saw the phenomenon in the sky and said to himself: "Ancient Sacred Beast, the Fire Phoenix?"
Although he was thinking it strange that he would see the image of an Ancient Sacred Beast manifest in such a tiny ninth grade country like the Sun Glory, but he still remembered that his purpose of being here was not for the Ancient Sacred Beast. He had something more important on his hands that he needed to do.
Hence, he turned his eyes away and continued to walk towards his destination…..
In another part of the woods, Feng Qing Ge who had also spotted the strange phenomenon in the sky was not able to contain her excitement as she tugged at Morong Yi Xuan beside her: "Big Brother Murong! Look! It's the Ancient Sacred Beast! The Fire Phoenix!"
She was feeling highly excitedly in her heart while telling herself determinedly in her mind: [This Ancient Sacred Beast, the Fire Phoenix will be mine!]
Murong Yi Xuan had been shocked when he saw the image of the Fire Phoenix in the sky as he exclaimed: "It's actually an Ancient Sacred Beast, that is the king of Sacred Beast."
The moment he finished his words, from behind the blazing clouds of fire, came the cry of a phoenix sounding like it had come from ancient times. Immediately after that, a blinding shaft of golden light shot down suddenly like a shooting star from the Heavens…..
