Chapter 392: 392
The cultivation base of the two beasts continued to drop, but neither was letting the other get the upper hand . It was a desperate battle, with the current fight, no one would end up as the winner .
This was precisely what Xue Wei wanted to see . He wanted them to mutually destruct each other, and then he could benefit from their demise .
Their advance was slow, but the speed of which the two beast's cultivation base was dropping was going faster and faster .
By the time Xue Wei and the others reached the threshold of the final battlefield, both of them had reached the rank of a Sky Saint of the first layer .
They were riddled with wounds, and their bodies could barely hold them any longer .
"Now!" Xue Wei suddenly turned into a big azure dragon and flashed at the battlefield in a moment .
Although he was not at the Saint level, he was after all a Sovereign Beast, and he was capable of bursting out with intense power, the only problem was to maintain the strength for long, as he did not have as much Qi as others, and his strength was slightly weaker .
However, behind him were two spirits, one scarlet bee queen, one mutated celestial dog, and a beast tamer .
"Do you want me to tame them?" Lin Xiao asked as he twirled the staff above his head, ready to beat it down on the head of the Luan Bird .
"Kill!" Xue Wei yelled as he was baring his fangs and brandishing his claws .
The Luan bird and the Mingshe were so exhausted that they barely managed to put up a fight . Xue Wei and the others were incapable of breaking through their scales and feathers, but there were so many wounds, that as long as they attacked these open gashes, the beasts would die .
In fact, these two beasts would die even if Xue Wei and his friends did not attack, but others would also come up here to scour for more resources, so it was better to be quick about it .
When he saw his chance, he rushed into the fight .
Not long after the Luan Bird breathed its last breath, the eyes turned dark, and an anguished screech resounded in the Ascended's realm .
After the death of the Luan Bird, the Mingshe did not last long either, and it soon died .
Storing the two corpses in a storage treasure was done fast before Xue Wei continued forward to the mountains behind the manor .
He was not willing to go just like this, the Luan Bird was likely to have a lair somewhere filled with treasures it had gathered over the years, and he was not willing to let others benefit .
The group traveled to the mountain, and as they found the cave, they entered without too much worry . Inside were indeed any treasure they could imagine that held any interest for the Luan Bird .
Everything was water or ice elemental, so although they were rare and handy for one who cultivated ice or water elemental affinity, Xue Wei did not, and neither did his friends . Still, these resources could be helpful later on in their lives, so he was not willing to let them go, and he hurried to the depts of the cave to take the items .
But as he reached the depth of the cave, he saw something that made him worried and shocked . Here was a nest and on the nest were eggs .
The eggs were still warm, and it was clear that they were carrying small birds inside .
Without wasting any time, Xue Wei grabbed the eggs, threw one to each of his friends, "keep it warm!" he ordered, before he started running, "we got to leave right at this instant!"
The others were unsure as to why it was so important to leave, but Xue Wei knew that since the eggs were actually with chicks inside, there had to be a male Luan Bird somewhere around .
The female bird had already caused such a headache to be defeated if a full-powered male Luan bird would appear, then they would be crushed in a moment .
The group understood the severity of the situation . They each hid an egg within their robes, and then they began leaving at a rapid pace .
When they exited the cave, Xue Wei made a decision - they were going to brave the dangers of the mountains and leave through the darkness of the forest .
His plan was simple . The people and the Blue Phoenix Manor should be able to attract the attention of the male Luan Bird, letting them, the real bandits, escape unscathed .
They found a small cave, and within this cave, they settled down . Xue Wei took out the little egg he had stuffed into his clothes earlier and felt the heartbeat and lifeforce of the egg within .
"They should hatch in half a year," he said contemplating . "We are going to stay here until the Ascended's Realm ends," he made the decision that they had now gotten enough resources .
When a male Luan Bird was involved in the equation, it was best to hide and strengthen themselves .
Xue Wei handed some of the ice and water herbs and materials to Wang Xiaoyun . "Feed these to the Luan Bird," he said with a smile . "It will be connected to you with a spiritual energy band, and its strength will improve, it will become a great aid in a fight . "
Wang Xiaoyun said nothing but nodded her head and kept the resources into the storage treasure .
After this, they all sat down and began cultivating . They had a mountain of resources that could improve their strength, and after moving around for so much time, it was good to need nothing than just cultivating their inner energies .
