/ Supreme Emptiness Chapter 278 03.25 – Chapter 278 Chapter 278 Suffering in Silence
Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Suffering in Silence Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Suffering in Silence That is not a mountain!
It's the Silver Winged Thunderbird!
The Silver Winged Thunderbird that left and came back!
Jiang Fan's pupils shook, and he froze for a moment on his horse.
He never expected the Silver Winged Thunderbird to be so cunning!
It had already spotted the people in the forest.
Because the forest was dense, making it difficult to hunt them, it pretended to leave.
In fact, it had silently camouflaged itself in the open area.
The purpose was to lure them out and capture them all in one fell swoop!
Thud!
Thud!
The massive claws of the Silver Winged Thunderbird stepped on the ground, turning around slowly.
The dull sound exploded in the deathly silent snowfield.
It was like war drums, making people's hearts tremble.
Yi Lianxing's lips trembled, and the hands holding the reins also shook non-stop.
She screamed in panic, “Quick… run… separate and run!”
In the face of a Core Formation Realm fifth level Beast King,
any resistance would be futile!
Only by scattering and fleeing could one of them survive.
Qin Caihe and Chu Xingmeng also snapped back from their intense fear.
Clumsily dismounting due to their disobedient bodies, they each fled in a different direction.
Jiang Fan also instinctively wanted to run.
But on second thought,
he stopped in his tracks.
Run?
Where could he run to?
The Silver Winged Thunderbird could cover hundreds of feet in an instant, and this place was far from the forest, all open plains.
Even if the four of them scattered, they would be caught by the Silver Winged Thunderbird one by one in a short time.
But not running would mean waiting for death?
Suddenly.
Jiang Fan looked at the Silver Winged Thunderbird, which was slowly spreading its wings with a mocking and ferocious look in its eyes.
A bold thought erupted in his mind.
Just as the Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon's power was greatly reduced when it left the water,
the greatest advantage of the Silver Winged Thunderbird was its ability to move invisibly in the air.
If it landed on the ground, its combat power would be greatly reduced!
To save his life, he had to fight it to the death before it took off!
“Beast!” Jiang Fan murmured.
He gripped the hilt of the Purple Sword, which he hadn't drawn for a long time, in a reverse hold.
With Spiritual Power vibrating in his palm, he shook off the cloth strips wrapped around it.
The Silver Winged Thunderbird sneered at Jiang Fan, as if looking at a rabbit that was overestimating itself, trying to bite back.
It had hunted for its entire life.
It had naturally seen some prey's last-ditch efforts.
Especially when it was on the ground, it gave some prey a false sense of hope that they could bite back.
But prey was prey.
The food chain dictated that even if it was on the ground, it was still the king!
Moreover.
It had already calculated the distance.
Enough for it to spread its wings and take flight.
Then, with just one dive, its sharp claws could easily tear the human in front of it into strips.
Without any effort.
But.
What suddenly wiped the mockery from its eyes was.
Jiang Fan held the Purple Sword, and Spiritual Power flowed through him, maximizing his movement technique.
In an instant, he crossed a distance of tens of feet.
The Silver Winged Thunderbird was taken aback and hastily sped up its wing flapping, trying to take off before Jiang Fan rushed over.
But Jiang Fan's speed was extreme.
In just ten breaths, he crossed a hundred feet!
At this moment, the Silver Winged Thunderbird had just left the ground, with no time to swoop down.
But Jiang Fan was already in front of it!
The Silver Winged Thunderbird's eyes showed anger and fear as its pitch-black claws, as sharp as death's scythe, reached for Jiang Fan.
Its claws were tall as two men and came down like lightning, almost impossible to catch by the naked eye!
In its prediction, Jiang Fan, along with his sword, would be torn to pieces!
But, in the next moment!
As Jiang Fan struggled to lift the Purple Sword and slashed into the air!
Its claw silently broke off!
In the next instant.
It felt a sharp pain in its belly!
A piece of skin, along with several feathers, was peeled off!
What happened?
The Silver Winged Thunderbird was dumbfounded.
The human boy had merely slashed in the air.
Its indestructible claw had been severed, and its belly was cut?
Before it could understand.
Jiang Fan leaped up, raising the Purple Sword high above his head.
He slashed fiercely at the Silver Winged Thunderbird's neck!
In that moment, the Silver Winged Thunderbird instinctively sensed a great mortal threat.
It flapped its wings in terror, soaring upwards.
While twisting its neck.
Swish—
A terrifying, invisible Sword Qi grazed its neck.
Even so, it skinned a large section of its neck.
Bright red blood scattered as it soared.
Dropping onto the white snow, like blooming plum blossoms.
“Damn it!”
Jiang Fan landed, full of regret.
The second slash should have claimed its life.
Unfortunately, the Purple Sword was too heavy, making his swing too slow.
Giving the Silver Winged Thunderbird time to react!
Now that it was high in the sky, he could no longer reach it.
The Silver Winged Thunderbird was both shocked and enraged.
Circling over Jiang Fan's head, screaming in anger.
What it thought would be an easy hunt.
Ended with it losing a claw and being injured twice!
This… This was a great humiliation!
More infuriating was Jiang Fan raising the Purple Sword in a taunting gesture.
As a top-level sky predator, this was an insult!
But it endured.
The power of the Purple Sword, it did not want to experience a third strike.
Its eyes turned, focusing on the three human women fleeing.
With a piercing scream, it flapped its giant wings and darted away like a streak of silvery white lightning.
Jiang Fan's expression changed slightly.
No longer hiding.
He decisively took out the Jade Talisman of the Nascent Soul Strike and activated it.
As soon as he took it out, the Silver Winged Thunderbird shivered all over.
Its eyes looked at the Jade Talisman in Jiang Fan's hand with fear.
It felt the terrifying strike contained within the Jade Talisman.
That was something it could not withstand!
Seeing Jiang Fan about to trigger it, it immediately flapped its wings and dashed into the clouds, disappearing without a trace.
Jiang Fan tightly held the Jade Talisman, scanning around.
Alert for the cunning bird's tricks.
But after a long time, with the three women nearly returned, the bird did not come back.
He finally relaxed, quickly storing away the Jade Talisman.
“Strange, why did the big bird suddenly run away? It was clearly going to attack me.”
Yi Lianxing saw it clearly.
The Silver Winged Thunderbird had already locked onto her just now.
But before it attacked, it turned and fled as if scared by something.
Qin Caihe was astonished, looking at the Purple Sword in Jiang Fan's hand: “Junior Brother Jiang, what kind of sword is that? It's amazing!”
“It could cut off the claws of a fifth-level Core Formation demon beast and injure it?”
The other two women hadn't seen the battle, but she had witnessed it.
Jiang Fan nonchalantly found a cloth to re-wrap the Purple Sword and placed it back on his back.
He did not answer her.
Qin Caihe just realized that the sword was a secret.
She asked something she shouldn't have.
Embarrassed, she stuck out her tongue: “I-I didn't see anything.”
At this time, Chu Xingmeng also came over.
She carried a claw twice as long as she was tall on her shoulder: “Senior Brother Jiang.”
“This big bird's claw seems to be of better quality than the Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon's teeth.”
Jiang Fan took it and felt a chill as he touched it.
As if he was touching a mystical iron treasure blade.
“It's top-quality material, take it to the vicinity of the Desires Sect and sell it.”
Jiang Fan tossed it onto the carriage.
Qin Caihe, wanting to make up for her mistake, also went to look for spoils of war.
But apart from the blood-covered ground, there was nothing else…
“Oh!”
Qin Caihe suddenly noticed a piece of tissue from the big bird among the blood.
It seemed to be a piece of skin from its belly.
A giant silver-white feather stood seven feet tall.
Blending with the snow, it was almost missed.
“Junior Brother Jiang, look what I found?”
Qin Caihe instinctively reached to grab the feather.
Jiang Fan saw, slightly stunned.
Immediately his face changed, urgently shouting, “Stop!”
“Don't touch it!”
