Chapter 625: Chapter 251: The Eagle Soars Across the Sky! (Part 2)

”Bang--”

No surprise, Xiao Bai was once again blown away by the strong wind, crashing into the mountain behind it again, leaving a dent several times deeper than the first time. The ground was littered with white feathers, and Xiao Bai’s plumage seemed even sparser.

Even after such severe blows, Xiao Bai did not show any sign of frustration. It was because it realized that its wings were stronger than when it started.

This meant that the gusts in the mountain gorge were helping to transform its body, making it adapt to the winds within the gorge. Whether intentional or not, to Xiao Bai, it was so.

Although this improvement was greater than the first one, its Spiritual Qi and Innate Qi were completely depleted. Even if Xiao Bai wanted to improve further, it had to wait for both to fully recover before continuing with the hard cultivation.

In the following time, Xiao Bai focused entirely on recovering itself. Once the Spiritual Qi and Innate Qi were fully restored, it would re-enter the gorge, enduring the gusts, hoping to withstand them a little longer.

In the gorge.

”Woo woo woo---”

A white figure moved among the howling winds in the gorge, with gale-force winds attacking it from all directions. Its wings had smooth feathers that turned disheveled under the impact, with some unable to endure and falling to the ground.

Xiao Bai’s small figure seemed insignificant under the gusts of the gorge, like a solitary leaf boat in the vast ocean, weak and humble.

Finally, in the gorge, Xiao Bai’s figure began to shake uncontrollably, swaying side to side, unable to hold on any longer.

The next moment.

”Bang!”

Xiao Bai slammed into the mountain behind it, forming a pit nearly fifty centimeters deep. Blood oozed from between its feathers, and its wings drooped lifelessly to the ground.

Even with such severe injuries, Xiao Bai’s face was filled with excitement, as if the wounds did not exist.

It struggled to stand, a white stream of light rising slowly from within, gradually covering its entire body. The wounds on its body healed at a visible speed, thanks to the effects of Innate Qi, which was why Xiao Bai was so fearless.

Xiao Bai had been hard cultivating in this strange gorge for nearly a day, and the sky was gradually darkening.

Today’s gains were, arguably, its greatest since birth.

From being blown out as soon as it first entered the gorge to now being able to withstand the fierce winds inside for a quarter of an hour, it was a qualitative leap.

Moreover, due to repeatedly depleting its Spiritual Qi and Innate Qi to exhaustion, then swiftly recovering, its internal reserves had become much denser.

In just one day, Xiao Bai had undergone earth-shattering changes.

A quarter of an hour later, with its Spiritual Qi and Innate Qi restored, it let out a long cry towards the sky and then spread its wings to leap into the air.

The towering trees within the gorge, due to Xiao Bai’s wingbeats, lost a good portion of their leaves, nearly turning bald.

As Xiao Bai left the gorge and soared high above the Great Mountain, its sharp eyes scanned the land, clearly seeing things that were previously indistinguishable from above.

Every flower, every plant, even a tiny bug couldn’t escape Xiao Bai’s eyes.

Then, with a flap of its wings, it soared up to the clouds, casting a noble silhouette under the sunset.

The Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain were terrified when they saw this scene, gazing up at the sky in alarm. Just that morning, this figure’s aura wasn’t so terrifying, and now, half a day later, even in the sky, it was suffocating them!!

Some of the weaker Demon Beasts didn’t even dare to look.

Suddenly.

From within the Great Mountain, several terrifying auras rose, charging straight toward the flying Xiao Bai.

Realizing there were several auras as strong as or even stronger than itself, Xiao Bai thought it might not be a match for them, but it felt no fear due to its newfound confidence from cultivating the Divine Eagle Skill today.

Immediately, Xiao Bai executed the Divine Eagle Skill, and its originally small fifty-centimeter figure expanded rapidly under the skill’s effect, reaching a size of one and a half meters. Its aura underwent earth-shattering changes, even more terrifying than it had been initially.

The Divine Eagle aura in the sky poured down like a celestial waterfall, directly attacking the terrifying auras within the Great Mountain.

Then, ”Bang bang bang---”

Several sounds erupted as the two forces clashed within the depths of the Great Mountain, creating a resounding boom, evenly matched.

All the Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain felt these auras and immediately scattered, fleeing frantically. Given their strength, encountering such auras would at best leave them seriously injured, or at worst, lead to their demise.

Demon Beasts, by nature avoiding harm and seeking benefits, found fleeing the best choice.

The several auras within the Great Mountain sensed the figure in the sky. Though its cultivation wasn’t on par with theirs, its strength was terrifying, acknowledging Xiao Bai’s power. They quickly withdrew their presence, vanishing into the Great Mountain.

Xiao Bai sensed the auras dispersing from the Great Mountain, its sharp eyes full of disdain, then let out a haughty and resonant cry from above the mountain, echoing throughout every corner of the Great Mountain.

The various Demon Beasts fleeing stopped in their tracks upon hearing the oppressive call, searching frantically for cover, trying any means to block the dreadful sound.

But before they could find shelter, the sound penetrated the mountain and rang in their ears.

Immediately, any Demon Beast that heard the sound fell to their knees, faces revealing expressions of pain, with some even bleeding from their ears.

Xiao Bai watched the scene of all the Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain below with satisfaction, then spread its wings, returning to the Great Wilderness Border Village with the sunset illuminating its path. On the way, it caught two goats, each two meters tall, as its dinner.

Meanwhile.

A giant eagle coming from the other side of the Great Mountain arrived shortly after Xiao Bai’s departure, its fierce eyes positioned where Xiao Bai had just been, lost in thought.

...

Not long after, the sky had darkened. Xiao Bai returned to the outskirts of the Great Wilderness Border Village. Its sharp eyes allowed it to see everything clearly even in the darkness of night.

It soon spotted a small yellow snake outside the Great Wilderness Border Village, continually eyeing the direction of its master’s home. This small snake was only about ten centimeters long, quite tiny. If it weren’t for the great progress made today with the Divine Eagle Skill, it wouldn’t have been visible in the dim night.

Instantly, Xiao Bai thought of the poisonous snake massacre in the village not long ago and the Snake Demon’s strange behavior, immediately concluding that this yellow snake was by no means simple.

It immediately delivered the two-meter-tall goats back to the courtyard without informing the Xu Family of the situation, hiding in the clouds under the cover of night.

Xu Binghu, seeing Xiao Bai leave after dropping off the goats, was really puzzled, ”What’s up with Xiao Bai? Didn’t it usually love roasted goat the most?”

Lian Ji was equally perplexed, ”Yeah! Every time it brought prey back, it would stay by the roasting rack. What’s going on today?”

Xu Ran, however, looked in the direction Xiao Bai had just left, his eyes gleaming.

As Xiao Bai’s master, he knew for sure that it must have discovered something important, which was why it left so hastily.

Moreover, even though Xiao Bai appeared briefly before leaving, just for that moment, Xu Ran sensed that Xiao Bai’s aura was incredibly terrifying, much stronger than when it disappeared that morning, suggesting some fortuitous encounter in that one day.

Perhaps, the reason for leaving now was related to this, so there was no need to worry about it.

”There’s no need for you to worry about Xiao Bai. With its strength, it won’t run into any danger in the Great Mountain, and even if it does encounter some unbeatable demon, it can rely on its speed to escape.”

”Indeed.”

Xu Binghu and Lian Ji both nodded in agreement after hearing this... Xiao Bai’s flying speed has indeed become quite extraordinary.
