665: Chapter 1: Killing Howling Wind, Great Eagle Disaster

Following Yang Shuo's roar, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and an incredibly thick bolt of purple-gold lightning struck down from the horizon.

It struck the Bi Feng Poison Toad with pinpoint accuracy, as it was unable to escape while being entangled by Shadow and the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede.

At that moment, the entire battlefield seemed to light up; lightning and poison mist intertwined, erupting with a deafening roar.

Shadow and the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede took advantage of this to unleash their killing moves, simultaneously bombarding the Bi Feng Poison Toad.

When everything returned to calm, the Bi Feng Poison Toad's massive body was unrecognizable.

"I, I... how could I..."

Its eyes were filled with unwillingness and despair, eventually falling silent as it completely lost all signs of life.

Shadow, Yang Shuo, and the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede all breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; the pressure the Bi Feng Poison Toad had exerted on them was truly significant.

There were several times when Yang Shuo and the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede had nearly perished; if not for Shadow's timely intervention, they likely wouldn't have lasted until now.

"If possible, I only need its poison sac!"

The Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede knew very well that the true main force behind killing the Bi Feng Poison Toad was actually Shadow.

Therefore, it did not overly covet anything else.

After hearing the words of the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede, Yang Shuo nodded slightly, expressing his agreement.

His main goal had been to protect the Sky Island, and now that this hidden danger had been successfully resolved, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"In that case, the beast core will belong to me. The poison sac and one-fifth of the flesh and blood will belong to 012. Yang Shuo, the rest is yours; after all, it is a wind-element Emperor Realm Expert. Your purple-gold heavenly lightning is certainly impressive, but if you add this Emperor Realm wind-element flesh essence, the power of wind and lightning will surely advance together, which will be of great help to your Realm Breakthrough."

Shadow's decision was crisp and decisive, without any hesitation, and he immediately began to divide the corpse of the Bi Feng Poison Toad.

Among this corpse, the most precious item was the crystal core, as it contained the fundamental power of the Bi Feng Poison Toad.

Next were its poison sac and the powerful wind power contained within its flesh and blood.

Yang Shuo did not refuse this distribution; he naturally did not covet the crystal core, and he was satisfied to receive four-fifths of the corpse.

Moreover, just as Shadow had said, the wind power in the Bi Feng Poison Toad's flesh and blood would be of great help to him!

"Good, if the two of you don't mind, you can come to my Sky Island to rest for a while."

He directly invited the two to enter the Sky Island. Setting aside his friendship with Shadow, just looking at the previous battle, the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede had displayed extremely strong combat power.

Not only was there no slacking off, but it had also helped Yang Shuo avoid danger many times.

From these actions, Yang Shuo knew that this fellow 012 was worth befriending, and furthermore, with his own strength, he did not fear 012 causing trouble later.

"It is a good time to Cultivate a bit more."

Shadow did not refuse. He was no longer limited to Shadow-element crystal cores; even crystal cores of other elements could be devoured and refined by him.

However, the effect was not as good as absorbing Shadow-element ones, and they could not be used to create Black Shadow Soldiers.

The Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede hesitated for a moment but did not refuse. After obtaining the poison sac and a portion of the flesh, it needed to find a place to make a Breakthrough.

If an Emperor Realm Expert like Shadow were present, it could save him a significant amount of time.

"Then thank you!"

After the three reached an agreement, they flew together toward the Sky Island.

The scenery on the Sky Island was picturesque, surrounded by mist, like a fairyland, forming a stark contrast to the tragic battle outside.

"My King!"

As the three arrived above the Sky Island, Gu Yanxi, the Thunder Roc King, and a group of other experts came to greet them; they had witnessed the entire previous battle.

They knew the danger involved, but with their strength, it was difficult even to get close, let alone help.

"Greetings, Lord Shadow!"

Gu Yanxi nodded slightly to Yang Shuo, and after confirming he was unharmed, she bowed respectfully to Shadow.

Zhang Xiaofeng and the other Sky Thunder Seven Generals also bowed. They knew of Shadow; back then, the mere presence of the other party had left them without even a shred of desire to resist.

And now, it seemed nothing had changed. Not only them, but even the Thunder Roc King and other experts of the Thunder Roc Clan, seeing Gu Yanxi and the others doing so, also followed suit and bowed.

Setting aside the other party's powerful strength, just looking at Yang Shuo's attitude toward him, they did not dare to act presumptuously!

Shadow glanced at the crowd without saying much, while the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede shrank to a length of over two meters, looking at the Sky Thunder Seven Generals with a hint of curiosity in its eyes.

Although it had traveled extensively, it had never entered a human city, so it was very curious about the appearance of Gu Yanxi and the others.

Because in its impression, Li Wuji looked just like this, but the few people in front of it not only had an extra pair of colorful wings, but their auras were also very weak.

Gu Yanxi and the Sky Thunder Seven Generals felt their pressure multiply under the gaze of the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede, but fortunately, Yang Shuo stepped forward in time.

"The two of you, follow me!"

After speaking, he led Shadow and the Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede to the central lightning pool of the Sky Island, where purple-gold lightning raged. The Spiritual Qi was dense, clearly the best place for Cultivation.

"No wonder you are unwilling to go out; it turns out there is such a good place here!"

Shadow looked at the purple-gold lightning lake in front of him with some surprise. Although the aura inside was powerful, for an Emperor Realm Expert, it could not cause any harm.

The Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede also nodded in agreement, "If a lightning cultivator were to Cultivate here, they would truly advance a thousand miles in a day!"

Yang Shuo smiled slightly, "Although most of the power of the lightning here has been absorbed by me, bathing in it for a long time also has many benefits for the Physical Body. Moreover, the Spiritual Qi here is dense; if one were to go into seclusion, this place is perfectly suitable!"

Shadow looked around, quite satisfied with the environment here.

He found a quiet corner, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and concentrated, beginning to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi and attempting to integrate the Emperor Realm crystal core into himself.

However, before that, he took out his communication device and sent a message to all his contacts!

The Six-Winged Dragon-Devouring Centipede was more direct; it found an open area and dived in, preparing to refine the Bi Feng Poison Toad's poison sac and flesh on the spot, hoping to make a Breakthrough from its current Realm as soon as possible.

Yang Shuo did not stand on ceremony either; he flew to the other side and also began to Cultivate, preparing to make a Breakthrough!

Unlike the tranquility of the Sky Island, hundreds of thousands of miles away in the Great Eagle Country, the sky was filled with Black Nether Armor Locusts, which had already descended upon the Great Eagle Country.

The three major experts, Constantine, Elizabeth, and Andre, led a team to actively charge into the depths of the Black Nether Armor Locusts, determined to kill the Insect Emperor within.

But this still did not hinder the offensive trend of the Black Nether Armor Locusts in the slightest; by now, the Black Nether Armor Locust swarm had already breached eighteen cities in succession.

The number of casualties exceeded three million, and the casualties were still spreading, leaving the entire Great Eagle Country Alliance in a state of panic.

And in the rear of the Great Eagle Country, dozens of figures stood on the roof of a tall building.

"Is that Lord about to take action!"

The person in the lead was hidden under a black robe, but his crimson-gold eyes were fixed on the communication device in his hand, murmuring.

"Boss, should we make a move?"
