Chapter 500: Light Refraction! The Instantly Killed Imperial-Ranked!
Chapter 500: Light Refraction! The Instantly Killed Imperial-Ranked!
"Chirp! Chirp!"
As the Great Celestial Dog's offensive ceased, a mature Wind Spirit Sparrow that had been circling in the sky finally broke free from the entanglement and landed on the rock, right on top of the Split Wind Azure Eagle. Its massive wings touched the blood and scattered feathers, ruffling them across the stone.
The Wind Spirit Sparrow let out a mournful cry.
At that moment, a figure swiftly rushed over.
The same cry, the same urgency.
A cyan shadow descended from the sky, and a smaller Wind Spirit Sparrow also pounced beside the Split Wind Azure Eagle, anxiously making a sound.
Another Wind Spirit Sparrow had arrived.
Unfortunately, at this time, a man named Crimson Demon Solitude was unable to spare any attention.
His face was extremely pale, and as he looked at the two figures leaping down from the nearby rocks, especially the enormous Thunder Wing Demon behind the child who had spoken, his already paper-white face turned even more unsightly:
"So it's Ray Saint! How did you end up in a place like this?"
He spoke with remarkable fluency in the Dragon Kingdom's language.
"This place is also within the Dragon Kingdom's territorial waters! Has the Crimson Demon family become so lawless?"
Meng Yao spoke calmly.
Su Ping had no time to indulge in this verbal sparring and instead turned his worried gaze towards the Split Wind Azure Eagle lying on the rock, unsure of its survival.
Having grown to this level, if the Split Wind Azure Eagle died, it would indeed be a pity.
With this thought, Su Ping nudged Meng Yao and pointed to the side, and the latter, understanding, nodded.
Only then did Su Ping hurry over.
He picked up the Vital Essence that he had originally prepared for Yaya.
"Chirp! Chirp!"
A gust of wind blocked Su Ping's path, and the adult Wind Spirit Sparrow's eyes were bloodshot, staring intently at Su Ping, but it was stopped by the smaller Wind Spirit Sparrow beside it: "Chirp! Chirp!"
Only then did the former reluctantly step aside, allowing Su Ping to rush to the rocky area and look at the Split Wind Azure Eagle.
However, just a glance caused Su Ping's eyebrows to furrow.
Large patches of flesh were torn, and within the chest cavity, the slowly beating heart was already visible.
Most importantly, the life force and soul consciousness had begun to gradually dissipate.
There was no need to elaborate on what these two things signified.
Nevertheless, Su Ping did his best to deliver the Vital Essence to the Split Wind Azure Eagle's mouth.
The milky-white light of life caused the Split Wind Azure Eagle's gaze to slightly focus, and the already open wound seemed to grow some flesh buds.
However, the physical injuries were not the main concern; the most crucial issue was the dissipation of life force and soul consciousness, which had not been stopped significantly.
At this moment, unless it was an Imperial-Ranked life essence, it might be able to halt the complete disintegration of life force, and with some resources to stabilize the soul, this Split Wind Azure Eagle could be saved. Otherwise, it would undoubtedly perish.
However, life essence was not particularly precious to Su Ping at this moment.
But he didn't have this item in his possession.
Even if he returned to Linzhou to retrieve it, the distance and time were already insufficient to sustain the Split Wind Azure Eagle.
Su Ping pursed his lips, glanced at the Wind Spirit Sparrows, who looked like humans, expectantly gazing at their smaller companion and the larger one, as well as the little Split Wind Azure Eagle, who seemed at a loss.
It was evident that the Wind Spirit Sparrow that had brought him here and this little Split Wind Azure Eagle were likely a parent and child.
Among the bred pets, aside from a small portion that would combine the strengths and weaknesses of both parents to create a new pet, the majority would either allow the bred pet offspring to take on the form of either parent or, at most, inherit some special abilities.
Not to mention, Lao Sha's background was precisely like this.
His father was the Wolf Lord's Sky Wolf, and his mother was just an ordinary Forest Wolf.
Imperial-Ranked pets already possessed considerable intelligence.
Furthermore, even if they didn't possess wisdom comparable to that of an ordinary adult human, no pet would be indifferent to the death of a companion or kin from the same species.
However, facing the gazes of these birds, Su Ping felt a bit helpless.
He slightly furrowed his brows, shook his head, and still spoke the truth:
"The Vital Essence can only sustain its life for a while, but I estimate that it won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Although it was a pity, there was nothing that could be done.
The Two-Headed Ghost Dove reacted swiftly, manifesting a massive ghostly head with Yin energy, blocking the attack.
However, both sides were clearly in a dire state.
Shenfeng Que's wings, like twin blades, were drenched in blood, and on the chest of the Two-Headed Ghost Dove, a deep wound could be seen, a clear indication of a suicidal, mutually destructive attack.
Yet, the man beside them, Chi Gui Que, showed no concern. At this moment, these minor matters were insignificant, and even the two Eagle pets, who had come with determination, seemed unbothered.
All their attention and focus were on the slowly approaching child-like Meng Yao and the enormous Thunder Wing Demon behind him, whose oppressive aura was palpable.
Chi Gui Que understood that the desperate Shenfeng Que and the peculiar boy from the Dragon Kingdom were of little consequence. The one who truly held his fate was the Saint-level existence from the Dragon Kingdom standing before him.
Realizing this, Chi Gui Que quickly smiled and said, "Ray Saint, I'll be on my way. What do you think? That ignorant fellow is dead, so consider it a gift to rid your eyes of an annoyance!"
The higher the rank of a Beastmaster and their pet, the greater the difference in power between each major realm.
Even though Meng Yao had recently advanced to the Saint-level in the Dragon Kingdom, his strength seemed average, but he was still not someone Chi Gui Que dared to provoke.
However, to Chi Gui Que's surprise, the Ray Saint before him ignored his response and didn't even acknowledge him as the heir of the Crimson Phantom Clan in the Cherry Blossom Kingdom. Instead, he turned to the young man standing beside the Windsplitting Lan Eagle:
"Hey! What do you think we should do?"
Su Ping frowned and raised his head.
He wasn't in the best of moods.
Initially, he had come to test the Little Crow's abilities against Shenfeng Que.
But given the current situation, how could he possibly continue and test the waters with Shenfeng Que? That would be like rubbing salt in a wound.
Nevertheless, the culprit behind this disruption was right in front of him.
Whether on Blue Star or before his rebirth, Su Ping had never held any affection for the neighboring Island Kingdom.
At this moment, in response to Meng Yao's inquiry, Su Ping thought for a moment and said,
"Senior, what's the relationship between the Cherry Blossom Kingdom and us?"
Meng Yao was taken aback but soon understood, "For the past few centuries, they were a vassal state. However, after the era of mechanical pets, they became our enemy, especially during the turbulent times... Now, they're just a dog across the ocean, used to restrain us."
He showed no respect to the man before him or his country, but Chi Gui Que was no ordinary person. Despite this, he maintained his smile, revealing no signs of disturbance.
Su Ping didn't mind at all and nodded,
"In that case, Senior Meng, you can watch from the sidelines. Let me have some fun!"
Meng Yao also understood and nodded in agreement.
Chi Gui Que, standing nearby, was still trying to grasp the situation.
However, the young man had already walked past the Windsplitting Lan Eagle and approached him,
"Little brat, come play with my pet! If you win just one round, I'll ask Saint Ray to let you go. How about it?"
Su Ping rubbed the YaYa on his shoulder and looked at Chi Gui Que.
The latter was stunned, narrowing his eyes. Although he didn't possess the true talent of the Real Eye, his senses told him that both the Beastmaster and the crow seemed to be at the Sovereign Rank.
He glanced at Meng Yao, who showed no intention of stopping him, calmly observing the scene.
Chi Gui Que didn't seek Meng Yao's opinion again. His pale face looked displeased, but he still nodded,
"Alright! In that case, which of my pets do you want to challenge first?"
Su Ping casually scanned the pets and then looked at the Two-Headed Ghost Dove, which was clearly the weakest at the moment.
After the previous attack, Shenfeng Que had injured the Two-Headed Ghost Dove, so it would be the first to face the challenge.
"Him!"
Chi Gui Que nodded.
He thought the young man was simply seeking death, but in this situation, he was the fish on the chopping block. It wouldn't be right to refuse.
Although he had a family trump card for escape, the cost was too high! So high that he wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary, even if it meant sacrificing one of his pets.
This was a perfect opportunity to see what tricks these two Dragon Kingdom individuals had up their sleeves!
After all, he was a member of the Crimson Phantom Clan, one of the top clans in the Cherry Blossom Kingdom, and should have some dignity.
When the time comes, if this Ray Saint continues to turn his back on them, then they'll have no choice but to cut off an arm to save the body.
However...
Crimson Demon Solitude glanced at the young man before him, and deep within his eyes, a flash of ferocity and disdain appeared.
Challenge the Two-Headed Ghost Dove?
This little brat probably doesn't know that the Ghost Dove is extremely vicious, especially when injured, it becomes even more ferocious!
Among his pets, only the Great Celestial Dog could restrain it; otherwise, it would be challenging to control the other pets!
Now, this brat dares to challenge the Ghost Dove with his Monarch-level strength? But since the opponent is seeking death and he himself had agreed, he naturally wouldn't say anything.
Thinking of this, Crimson Demon Solitude waved his hand, and the originally fierce and evil Ghost Dove, which was staring at the Divine Wind Sparrow that was already weak and feeble, shifted its gaze to the little crow, YaYa, standing before Su Ping.
The Divine Wind Sparrow remained motionless, and it could tell that the two humans brought by its missing son were here to help them.
At this moment, even if it wanted to assist in the fight, it couldn't do anything.
It could only watch the strange little crow in the sky, wanting to see if this human could help them take revenge.
YaYa rarely showed a serious and solemn expression.
Nevertheless, there was not a trace of fear or hesitation; instead, there was a hint of excitement.
The Imperial-level opponent before him further stimulated his fighting spirit!
It's known that among Su Ping's two pets, they were both capable of fighting above their level, effortlessly defeating opponents like slaughtering chickens and dogs.
Although it's said that the higher the realm, the more challenging it is to fight above one's level, YaYa obviously isn't one to give up easily.
"Caw!"
Even after evolving, YaYa still made this call as it looked at the Ghost Dove.
This 'play' didn't require anyone to count down from three, two, one...
The Ghost Dove disdainfully glanced at the golden fellow in front of it.
Then, it pounced ferociously.
The Ghost Dove didn't have any excess elemental energy; it only had a basic grasp of dark undead power, and its primary killing method was its speed, strength, teeth, and sharp claws.
Although it was unclear where this fellow came from, the madness in its bloodline surged, and it would undoubtedly rip apart and devour any opponent that dared to block its path!
Thus, a gust of black wind blew in their faces, and two fanged and clawed heads lunged at the little crow standing in the air, ready to swallow it whole.
However, in this situation, the little crow showed no intention of dodging.
Even Meng Yao, standing beside them, frowned, ready to command the Thunder Demon to intervene and save the seemingly dazed little crow.
After all, he hadn't seen the little crow's abilities before, and he had no understanding of this evolved, golden crow.
Just as the Ghost Dove was about to approach YaYa, suddenly, a light shadow appeared.
The source of this light was not only from the sun above but also from the little crow in front of them.
At this moment, Su Ping finally understood how the little crow's light refraction had mutated into an Epic Skill under the Golden Crow form! Light refraction was a very basic light attack skill, only slightly more powerful than the initial Blindness Technique.
The attack's power wasn't significant, as it involved controlling the continuous refraction of light.
But at this very moment, the light passed through the little crow's body, forming an absolute light refraction.
In this instant, under the sunlight, YaYa resembled a tiny sun.
It seemed to take a long time.
However, the speed of light was such that even a Legendary-level being would barely be able to grasp it.
Therefore, in just an instant, YaYa's light refraction was complete.
Then, through the self-refraction of its body, the light suddenly expanded.
At this moment, the little crow resembled a golden screen bursting open.
All its golden wings stood up, and in this instant, they pointed at the Ghost Dove:
'Spicy!'
In the next moment, without even a chance to react,
A dazzling light, accompanied by scorching flames, shot out in an instant, piercing through the head of the Imperial-level Ghost Dove like a gamma ray.
It took only a second,
A genuine instant kill!
