Whoosh!
As a signal flare shot into the sky and exploded with a bang, Chu Xuan also moved!
His figure darted towards the Blackwater Serpent like lightning, unleashing the power of Bajiquan, and slammed a powerful punch into the weakest point of its scales.
Clang!
A series of sounds, like the clash of metal, rang out.
In pain, the Blackwater Serpent opened its massive jaws and lunged at Chu Xuan, intending to swallow him whole.
Chu Xuan did not confront it head-on, but dodged to the side again and engaged it in a fierce battle.
Logically, Chu Xuan's best course of action would have been to leave first and wait for the others to arrive before dealing with them together. However, the Black Water Serpent clearly anticipated his intentions, attacking from both its head and tail, giving Chu Xuan no chance to retreat.
Then we have no choice but to take the initiative!
What's more, this is walking essence!
The muffled thuds continued, and Chu Xuan felt his fists go numb.
Going head-on with this guy is just asking for trouble!
"Fine, I'm not playing with you anymore!"
'
Chu Xuan let out a low shout. Knowing that he couldn't defeat his opponent without using his full strength, he instantly unleashed all four levels of power and switched from Bajiquan to Jiemai Palm!
In an instant, the dense veins covering the black scales of the Blackwater Serpent appeared before his eyes.
His figure darted out like a ghost, skimming along the ground to avoid the giant tail sweeping across the black serpent.
He suddenly concentrated his right palm power, his fingertips tightened, and his palm edge was like a knife as he precisely struck the vein connecting the snake's tail and torso.
The giant tail, which had been thrashing violently and powerful enough to break ancient trees, suddenly froze.
The force that could shatter mountains and split rocks suddenly dissipated, as if all its strength had been drained, and it slumped softly to the ground, no longer able to sweep or sway.
"Hiss~"
The Blackwater Serpent roared incessantly, and the next moment, it opened its enormous head and lunged at Chu Xuan once more.
Chu Xuan grabbed the Black Water Serpent's tail and, before its massive jaws could snap shut, began to frantically swing it around, smashing it wildly against the surrounding giant trees!
"My goodness!"
Liang Ping exclaimed in surprise, his eyes widening in astonishment.
How much strength would it take to snatch the Blackwater Serpent flying?
Bang Bang Bang ~!
A series of loud explosions rang out, several trees as tall as a person snapped in half, and boulders the size of small hills were blasted into dust.
Just as the Blackwater Serpent was feeling dizzy, Chu Xuan had already leaped onto its head and activated the Meridian-Severing Palm again, sealing off the meridians in its upper body one after another.
Chu Xuan flashed to his vital spot and punched him, shattering the still-beating heart exposed outside the wound.
With a loud bang, the millstone-sized head crashed down.
Chu Xuan picked up the long knife that Li Fan had dropped, slashed open the belly of the Black Water Serpent, and then pulled it out with a sudden jerk. A huge iron porcupine was pulled out by him.
Sure enough, the Iron Arrow Boar was eaten by the Black Water Serpent!
However, besides the iron porcupine, there were also some scattered eggshells inside the Blackwater Serpent's belly, which looked like some kind of bird's eggs.
"What's going on? Who sent the signal?!"
Soon, Zhao Mingyu arrived with a group of his men, his face grim.
Unless there is an emergency, no signals are allowed to be sent in the animal park!
Since the signal was sent, it must mean that something big has happened in the animal park he manages!
Accompanying him were two other people: Meng Yong, the manager of the neighboring No. 8 Animal Park, and Shi Liang, the manager of No. 13 Animal Park!
"Blackwater Serpent?"
As soon as Zhao Mingyu finished speaking, he saw the huge black water snake corpse in the grass, and his eyes widened in shock.
Meng Yong and Shi Liang were both startled.
"Dead? You killed that Blackwater Serpent?"
Meng Yong looked at Chu Xuan with disbelief on his face.
"I killed it, but it was already severely injured and barely clinging to life—"
Chu Xuan briefly recounted what had happened.
The three of them went forward to check and, sure enough, found the huge wound on the belly of the Blackwater Serpent.
Such a severe wound is already fatal; even without Chu Xuan's intervention, the Blackwater Serpent won't live much longer.
The three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"These Blackwater Serpents are usually found in the Misty Swamp area of Longevity Mountain. How did they end up on the outskirts?" Shi Liang frowned.
Losing one Ironfur Boar is nothing.
The corpse of this Blackwater Serpent is enough to make up for all the losses.
Meng Yong then squatted down, examined the scattered eggshells next to the iron porcupine, and then his eyes lit up as he said, "Look at these eggshells."
Upon hearing this, Shi Liang and Zhao Mingyu also squatted down.
"This is—a black-crowned golden eagle's egg?" Zhao Mingyu raised an eyebrow.
"It's not a black-crowned golden eagle!"
Shi Liang picked up the eggshell and examined it closely. He noticed some interwoven purple patterns on the shell, and his eyes lit up. He exclaimed, "This is a Purple-crowned Golden Eagle egg!"
"What? A purple-crowned golden eagle?"
Zhao Mingyu and Meng Yong both changed their expressions and exclaimed in surprise.
The Purple-crowned Golden Eagle is the king of all eagle-like beasts!
Its appearance is similar to that of the Black-crowned Golden Eagle; to be precise, it is a type of Black-crowned Golden Eagle.
The difference lies in the feathers on its head, which are purple. It is also several times the size of the Black-crowned Golden Eagle!
The purple-crowned golden eagle is the king of the black-crowned golden eagles!
Its value is dozens of times that of the Black-crowned Golden Eagle!
It's not just because of its immense strength—once it reaches adulthood, it possesses terrifying power comparable to a master of the Gang Jin realm! It's also because the Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle can carry people in flight!
If the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle is tamed right after hatching, it can become a great help to a martial artist!
This is a beast comparable to a master of the罡劲 (Gang Jin) realm!
What's more, it can carry people soaring through the heavens, traveling a thousand miles a day!
Shi Liang's eyes gleamed, and his breath was hot as he said, "This Blackwater Serpent must have stolen the Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle's eggs and been scratched by the eagle, which is why it ran to the Beast Garden for refuge! With such a severe injury, it couldn't have gone far! This means there's likely a Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle's nest nearby!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingyu and Meng Yong's breathing became hot.
Purple-crowned golden eagle egg!
This is a treasure that even True Essence experts can only dream of!
Its value even surpasses that of a mature purple-crowned golden eagle.
The purple-crowned eagle is fierce and cannot be tamed at all when it is an adult. Even if it is captured, it will starve itself to death.
Therefore, to tame a purple-crowned eagle, you must start from when it has just hatched!
Purple-crowned golden eagles typically build their nests on cliffs and precipices, making them extremely difficult to spot!
Shi Liang, clearly well-versed in the habits of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle, added, "The Purple-crowned Golden Eagle lays at least three eggs each time. After laying eggs, it experiences a period of weakness; otherwise, the Blackwater Serpent wouldn't have been able to take advantage of it. The Blackwater Serpent is so badly injured; the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle won't be in much better shape. This is our chance!"
Zhao Mingyu and Meng Yong's eyes suddenly blazed with intense light!
Three purple-crowned golden eagle eggs!
If they obtain a Purple-crowned Golden Eagle egg, even if they don't hatch it themselves, but instead exchange it for contribution points, it will mean that before they reach the Gang Jin stage, they will no longer need to worry about cultivation resources.
"There are such strange beasts lurking near the animal park. As the manager of Animal Park No. 9, I must eliminate this danger!" Zhao Mingyu immediately stepped forward and said righteously.
"good!"
Meng Yong nodded in agreement, "Our major animal parks are all in cahoots, so naturally we should work together to eliminate this hidden danger!"
"Let's go, let's go look for it together!"
Shi Liang stood up and said, "This Black Water Serpent must have left behind a lot of bloodstains along its journey. Before the bloodstains are covered up, it shouldn't be difficult to find it."
Chu Xuan remained silent.
He's been working at the Hundred Beasts Garden for so many days now, and he's no longer the newbie he used to be!
The Purple-crowned Golden Eagle is the king among third-tier exotic beasts. Even a Purple-crowned Golden Eagle that is injured after laying eggs is not so easy to deal with!
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been the Blackwater Serpent that escaped.
These three were clearly blinded by greed.
"Walk!"
The three of them immediately set off together.
When Zhao Mingyu glanced at Chu Xuan out of the corner of his eye, a glint of greed and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. He immediately shouted to Chu Xuan and Liang Ping, "You two follow too!"
According to the rules, those who hunt down exotic beasts will also receive huge benefits!
In other words, at least a portion of this Black Water Serpent should belong to Chu Xuan!
But if Chu Xuan dies—
Chu Xuan said helplessly, "Manager Zhao, I was injured in the battle with the Black Water Serpent just now—"
"Shut up!"
Zhao Mingyu shouted sharply, "Just follow me! Stop talking nonsense!"
Chu Xuan's face was somewhat gloomy, but he had no choice but to follow along.
As for Li Fan, who was seriously injured and still unconscious, he was left behind.
Without further hesitation, the group immediately ventured deep into the dense forest.
The Beast Mountain Range is covered with dense, impenetrable primeval forests. During the day, light can hardly penetrate many places, and at night it is as dark as a black hole that can devour everything.
Fortunately, everyone present was a martial artist with amazing eyesight and keen senses, so to them it was no different from daytime.
Following the faint trail of blood, the group soon arrived at a large open area surrounded by towering ancient trees.
"There are signs of a battle; it must have happened nearby!"
Shi Liang shouted and immediately sprinted forward, with the others quickly catching up.
"Hey~!"
Just then, a mournful cry rang out.
Ten feet away, under a towering ancient tree, stood a giant golden eagle, about ten feet tall, flapping its wings and staring fiercely at the crowd.
Its wings fluttered a few times, stirring up a flurry of fallen leaves, but its body did not take flight.
Above the ancient tree, a huge bird's nest suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Its wing is injured, it can't fly!"
Shi Liang cried out in surprise and was about to jump up the giant tree, but as soon as he got close, the purple-crowned golden eagle pounced fiercely, and the powerful wind blew him away.
Zhao Mingyu and Meng Yong tried to get closer, but they were both nearly hit by the wings of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle.
"Let's kill this beast together!"
Shi Liang roared and made the first move. A fierce burst of energy erupted as he punched the injured wing of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle.
Zhao Mingyu, wielding a longsword, used a cunning and unpredictable swordsmanship to thrust directly at the eyes of the purple-crowned golden eagle.
Meng Yong put on boxing gloves covered in dense spikes, unleashed his fist force, and slammed it into the belly of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle!
Seeing this, Chu Xuan and the others had no choice but to join in the attack.
"唳~"
The angry cries of eagles echoed through the forest.
In an instant, the entire forest erupted with energy, and fallen leaves swirled wildly!
The purple-crowned golden eagle was also completely enraged, flapping its wings wildly. With a "whoosh," its sharp beak pierced through the chest of an outer disciple!
"ah----"
The outer disciple had barely let out a scream when he was torn apart by the claws of the purple-crowned golden eagle.
Chu Xuan was on the outermost edge and did not use his full strength.
He knew very well that even if they killed the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle and seized the eggs in the nest, they wouldn't get any.
Zhao Mingyu's invitation to him was clearly ill-intentioned!
Soon, another outer disciple was struck by the wings of the Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle, his body exploding into pieces before he could even scream.
Seeing that they couldn't break through after a long attack and that the group was already injured, Zhao Mingyu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he suddenly slapped the back of an outer disciple next to him!
Caught off guard, the opponent leaned forward and charged toward the giant beak of the purple-crowned golden eagle.
puff!
With a single peck, the purple-crowned golden eagle pierced the opponent's heart, temporarily trapping its beak and obstructing its vision.
"A great opportunity!"
Zhao Mingyu and the other two launched their attack simultaneously.
While Shi Liang and Meng Yong were harassing the area, Zhao Mingyu seized the opportunity and pierced the eye of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle with his sword, piercing its head directly.
"唳~"
With a mournful cry of despair, the massive body of the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle crashed to the ground.
He's finally dead!
Zhao Mingyu and the other two breathed a sigh of relief, and then at the same time, they unleashed their power and dashed towards the bird's nest, which was dozens of meters high in the tree, like agile apes.
Chu Xuan and several other outer disciples remained where they were!
Chu Xuan remained indifferent.
The other outer disciples looked grief-stricken.
They witnessed with their own eyes how Zhao Mingyu used their companions as bait to kill the Purple-crowned Golden Eagle!
But none of them dared to be angry, much less speak out!
If they anger Zhao Mingyu and the others in these deep mountains and forests, they might not be able to return.
Soon, Zhao Mingyu and the other two came down at the same time and together lifted up a huge bird's nest.
Inside the nest, there were three bird eggs that were bigger than a human head!
"Three! Haha, we're rich this time!"
Zhao Mingyu couldn't help but burst into laughter, feeling an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.
Shi Liang and Meng Yong were also very excited!
"A golden eagle egg is worth at least 5000 contribution points! One for each person, perfect! We're rich, we're rich!" Shi Liang exclaimed excitedly.
As for Chu Xuan and the others—
You wish!
"Hehe, this is a real bumper harvest! With the meat from the Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle and the Blackwater Serpent, each of us can earn at least seven or eight thousand contribution points."
Meng Yong laughed heartily, "It truly is a case of the snipe and the clam fighting, while the fisherman benefits!"
"No, no, no!"
Just as he finished speaking, a sinister voice suddenly rang out from the dense forest, "To be precise, it should be called 'the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!'"
"Huh? Who?"
Meng Yong's expression changed, and he suddenly shouted, "Get out here!"
He didn't even need to say anything; the other party came out.
From the depths of the dark forest, several figures shrouded in black robes slowly emerged. Each of them wore a ferocious mask.
"Gentlemen, thank you for your hard work in slaying the Purple-Crowned Golden Eagle and obtaining the eagle egg for us! We would be honored to accept such kindness!" The masked man at the head of the group chuckled.
"Hmm? This outfit?"
Upon seeing the somewhat familiar attire, Chu Xuan instantly became extremely wary.
"Where did this petty thief come from?!"
Upon seeing the group, Zhao Mingyu sneered, "Are you all blind? You dare to steal even the Xuan Yang Sect's things? Are you courting death?!"
"Xuanyang Sect?"
Upon hearing this, the masked man in the lead chuckled and said, "Sorry, the people we killed were from the Xuan Yang Sect!"
