Chapter 135: Encounter in Mid-air!

  News spread quickly, and within an hour, a message arrived from Nan Mingjun that there was a Ling Stone in the quiet spirit pool.

  Jingling Pond is located within the borders of the Great Hua Empire.

  According to Nan Ming Jun, the distance is too far, and it's just a rush back and forth. Even with the speed of a Double-Winged Angle Horse, it would take about ten days. It was originally very difficult to go there, but Qin Zheng had a Speed Super Mutant Crowned Eagle King. After communicating with the Crowned Eagle King, according to its own judgment, going back and forth would only take about half a day.

  Then, Qin Zheng made some arrangements and immediately rode the Crowned Eagle King to Ji Ling Pond.

  The Crowned Eagle King no longer concealed his speed, letting Qin Zheng witness what it means by speed.

  "Damn it, you've been back from the demon wind forbidden land for a while now, and you still haven't made your move."

  Qin Zheng's body was wrapped in a true yuan, and as he looked around, they were above the clouds, like a vast sea of clouds. From time to time, strange beasts would appear, fighting, and looking down, through the mist, one could see the continuous Dragon Elephant Mountains, and even notice the tiny figures of people, like ants. The whole person felt broad-minded, as if wanting to contain the entire world in their chest.

  Only when you open your heart can you avoid being controlled by various negative emotions.

  The divine brush was not successfully refined, the method of slaughtering the gods will be unusable, and the boundary will be fixed at the initial level of the intention martial boundary. All of this will affect one's mood, making them feel anxious, uneasy, worried, etc. If they cannot suppress it, it is easy to make mistakes in judgment during this journey, which would not be beneficial for obtaining the summoning stone.

  According to Nan Ming Jun, the Quiet Spirit Pool where the Summoning Spirit Stone is located is not an ordinary pool of water. Inside, it not only hides powerful demonic beasts but also has the attractive Quiet Yin Flower. The Quiet Yin Flower can nurture some wonderful water droplets, known as the Nether Shadow Sacred Water, which has a great promoting effect on martial artists with the characters "Nether" or "Yin" in their names. It is said that gathering enough Nether Shadow Sacred Water can transform some martial artists with the character "Nether" in their names into Nether King Martial Artists, which would be a goal for the entire continent to strive for. Of course, the required amount is enormous, and it's estimated that it would take 20,000 to 30,000 years to gather enough based on the Quiet Spirit Pool's situation. However, this doesn't stop some rogue cultivators from having ideas about it and attempting to make minor improvements to their martial arts.

  Quiet Spirit Pool is different from the previous demon wind forbidden land.

  One is deserted, the other is crowded.

  Qin Zheng was thinking about how he could get the Ling Stone.

  He wasn't particularly interested in the Mysterious Sacred Water or the Quiet Yin Flower. In his memory, neither the Five Dynasties' Demon Emperor nor Old East Sea King had ever mentioned such treasures.

  "Hiss!"

  They had long since left the Dragon Elephant Mountains far behind, and were now in flight. Ahead of them, a sharp eagle cry with strong provocative meaning came from afar, as a swift and fierce eagle flew over at incredible speed.

  This demon eagle's entire body radiated brilliant golden light, similar to the distant scorching sun, as if it were a rolling ball of flames, with an aura that was full and majestic, sweeping across all eight directions.

  "Hiss!"

  The Crowned Eagle King naturally couldn't tolerate the provocation and let out a loud cry.

  Its crown of gold emitted a powerful royal pressure, it was like the king of eagle-like demons, only liking to look down on other eagle demons from above, but not willing to be provoked. Its entire body's light golden feathers seemed to have transformed into light golden flames standing upright, as if burning. A pair of eyes with light golden flames dancing within, that kind of royal pressure completely suppressed the provocation of the eagle demon flying over from the front.

  The flying eagle seemed to sense the ferocity of the Crowned Eagle King and slightly restrained itself, but still exuded a hint of arrogance as it stared at the Crowned Eagle King, especially with a pair of eyes flashing with fierce light, making Qin feel that this eagle wanted to kill the Crowned Eagle King and take its place.

  So the demon eagle is also the king of the eagle-like demon beasts.

  Sunbird King!

  On the back of this demon eagle, a young man stood similarly, wearing a golden brocade robe, similar to the feathers of the Day Eagle King. He wore a golden crown on his head, which also had the posture of an eagle. With his hands behind his back and his eyes narrowed, he was sizing up the Demon Crowned Eagle King.

  "Will you sell me this demonic eagle of yours? I can give you a good price." The young man on the back of the Pursuing Sun Eagle King said.

  "Then are you willing to sell me your Pursuing Hawk King, I'll give you a satisfactory price." Qin Zheng was very displeased with this person's attitude, how could such a rare hawk king be sold.

  "I, Shi Xiao, have always been fond of the Eagle-type demonic beasts. If you are willing to sell it to me, one day, the Double Eagles King will dominate the Divine Martial Continent, and you will be the one who helped me achieve this." The young man calling himself Shi Xiao said.

  "Your Excellency is quite boring."

  He urged Yaoguai Crown Eagle to surpass Zhuiri Eagle King and continue on their journey.

  Who would have thought that Shi Xiao's smile would cause the Daybreak Eagle King under his feet to suddenly radiate a brilliant golden light, its wings fully spread as it soared into the air, casting a majestic and awe-inspiring presence that blocked their path.

  The Crowned Eagle King is about to burst into an attack.

  The two great eagle-like demons both wanted to make the other yield.

  "I, Shi Xiao, have always valued the Eagle King, and I've never failed to get it." Shi Xiao had also long known that Qin Zheng would not sell the Demon Crowned Eagle King. He recognized this was the Demon Crowned Eagle King, even those high-level martial artists who obtained it would treasure it, so he had already prepared to take action and seize it.

  "Finally showing your disgusting face." Qin Zheng said with a cold smile.

  Shi Xiao's dual arms waved, air waves rolled, and the surrounding clouds and fog were in intense turmoil. Behind him, a huge eagle shadow emerged, and between his chest and abdomen, a special martial pulse faintly flashed, this martial pulse outline was similar to the proud Eagle King, it was the characteristic martial pulse of the Proud Eagle Pulse.

  "Yao Crowned Eagle King, I am your best master." Shi Xiao exerted his full strength to urge on his Proud Eagle Martial Pulse, and the enormous eagle phantom behind him became even more distinct.

  The proud eagle's pulse is very attractive to eagle-like demonic beasts.

  The mysteries that the Wu Mai can produce far exceed imagination, and it's not just about the Wu Mai being divine or helpful in cultivating martial arts. For example, if the Three Lives Linglong Wu Mai is formed, even just the aura emitted by this Wu Mai can help various demonic beasts' Wu Mai.

  The Proud Eagle Martial Vessel is beneficial to eagle-type demon beasts, and when cultivated to a certain level, it can extract a small portion of its essence to improve the potential of eagle-type demon beasts.

  "With this martial arts, you have the nerve to bring it out." Qin Zheng's undisguised ridicule was that, as far as Wu Mai was concerned, Eagle King Wu Mai was obviously the most tempting to eagle-type demon beasts, but even if it were Eagle King Wu Mai in front of San Shi Ling Kong beast, he wouldn't be qualified to compare, let alone Ao Ying Wu Mai who couldn't even lift his head in front of Eagle King Wu Mai.

  Shi Xiao heard this and immediately became very angry.

  "Let's go."

  Qin Zheng was too lazy to continue reasoning with this person, and he didn't have time to linger here. If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't a good killer, at such a critical moment, he would have started killing those who blocked his way long ago.

  "Hiss!"

  This time, the Crowned Eagle King no longer concealed itself, letting out a wild and overbearing screech that shook the space within a thousand meters, causing it to tremble. The golden flames, driven by the wind, surged up a thousand meters high, and with a domineering flap of its wings, shot out in a majestic flight, completely disregarding the Sun Chasing Eagle King.

  Whoosh!

  That violent explosion of power forced the Pursuing Day Hawk King to retreat slightly before crossing over him in an instant, soaring tens of thousands of meters.

  The Sunbird King retreated, only to realize that something was amiss. The angry cries continued unabated, for as a monarch, it could not accept the outcome of being avoided.

  "Don't chase anymore." Shi Xiao stopped him.

  "I won't lose to it." The voice of the Pursuing Hawk King was somewhat spaced out, and he looked very displeased.

  Shi Xiao's mouth curved into a slight arc, "They can't escape, judging from the direction they're coming from, it's the Longxiang Mountains' Ziyang Town. This time they leave, I reckon there's something going on. Since those three Linglong beasts haven't crossed the tribulation yet, he'll definitely come back. When that happens, we'll naturally have a chance to capture this Crowned Eagle King. For now, let's go meet Lin Zhongxian first."

  Chui Ri Eagle King said: "Why are you helping Lin Zhong Shun? He is just a small officer in the Ling Gu domain."

  "He has in his hand a treasure that can help me transform my martial arts." Shi Xiao's eyes shone with a sharp light.

  The King of the Sun Eagle didn't say anything.

  They flew directly to Ziyang Town.

  The straight flight to the Silent Pool's Youguan Wangyue was also discussing this human-eagle encounter with Qin Zheng.

  "The Daybreak Eagle King and I are almost at the same boundary, if they also participate in the Tribulation, it's likely to be troublesome." The most worrying thing for the Demon Crowned Eagle King was still Yu Xiuyan, the future master.

  "They're heading straight for Ziyang Town, and it's highly likely that they've come for this tribulation. Qin Zheng turned his head to look back, but there was no sign of Shi Xiao. "When the time comes, you will inevitably have to fight against the Pursuing Sun Eagle King."

  The Crowned Eagle King let out a loud cry, "I will strike it down!"

  Qin Zheng burst out laughing and said: "Having such ambition is good."

  Amidst loud laughter, they soared over high mountains and rivers, arriving at the Quiet Spirit Pool.

  Jì Líng Tán is less than a hundred miles away from the border of the Great Hua Empire and the Great Flame Empire. This place is also quite remote, with desolate mountains and wild ridges all because of Jì Líng Tán.

  The water of this pool is extremely cold, the chill it releases isn't heavy, doesn't affect warriors and demonic beasts much, but ordinary people find it hard to bear. Thus, the coldness isn't too severe, making it difficult for any treasures to be born, so it appears very serene.

  Qin Zheng stood on the back of the Crowned Eagle King, looking down at what was below.

  Jingling Pool is located in a desolate mountain range, with no notable terrain features.

  However, there are now a large number of people gathered around, with over a thousand people surrounding the area, pointing and staring. At the edge of the Jingling Pond, a group of people stood in a circle, each carrying swords and knives on their backs, with their hands behind them, coldly staring at the onlookers, completely blocking others from approaching.

  Looking again at the quiet spirit pool, the entire pool is like a mirror, even if there is wind blowing, the pool water does not have a single ripple. There are also several corpses by the pool, some of which are still bleeding.

  In the middle of the pond, there was only one flower that had not yet fully bloomed, and that was the shade-loving flower.

  Qin Zheng looked at the quiet and mysterious flower, it should be the time for it to bloom, the dark sacred water inside was attracting these people.

  He let the Crowned Eagle King hide in the dark, and he himself came into the crowd, intending to listen for some news. Such a large-scale siege of the Silent Spirit Pool was obviously not ordinary, and no one could be seen as the leader, nor did they know if they had gone underwater. Let's listen carefully and make plans again.

  As soon as he entered the crowd, someone whispered: "The people of Linggu Domain are too overbearing, their claws stretched so far that they even snatched a drop of Mingyin Sacred Water, and they're not afraid of losing face for Linggu Domain."
