The parrot Cai quickly gobbled-up the three fiery fishes. After that, a layer of red radiance bubbled-up on the surface of its body. The red radiance began to circulate over its body after a while. And, it eventually gathered into the feather on top of its head.
The feather exuded a burst of bright radiance. Then, it turned into fiery-red in color. This feather looked vibrant in the crowd of Cai’s other feathers.
Cai fluttered its wings, and started to issue cheerful cries.
Shi Mu grasped two more fiery fishes effortlessly. But now, his body seemed to have reached its extreme limit since it couldn’t withstand the flow of pure fire essence anymore. Therefore, Shi Mu couldn’t continue to absorb the fire essence.
Cai shifted its gaze. Its eyes twinkled as it looked towards Shi Mu. Shi Mu was still seated on the ground with his legs crossed.
Note: The world building is slowly becoming more and more clear as we proceed further. So, we’ll refer to ‘Dong Zhou’ as ‘Eastern Continent’ from now onwards since the name’s real meaning is becoming clearer.
