99: Chapter 100 Dead Wings, flap them now!

Ling Tian's words, filled with contempt, made all the Peng Clan members' faces change drastically!

"Mixed-feathered bird? The taste is okay? Too stringy? Stewed chicken with mushrooms?!"

They were the noble Peng Clan! The overlords of this sky! When had they ever suffered such humiliation?!

"Roar!! Arrogant!!"

Dark Feather King was so angry that all his feathers stood on end. His pitch-black wings spread open violently, and dense dark energy condensed around his body, transforming into countless sharp black feathers that shot toward Ling Tian like a rainstorm!

"Go to hell, for this King!!"

Although Red Feather King was also angry, he appeared calmer.

He stared fixedly at Ling Tian, his eyes filled with apprehension.

The strength and defense of this monster were too terrifying! Iron Claw King was crippled in a single exchange, his life or death unknown. Fighting head-on was definitely not the best strategy!

His gaze swept over the terrified Human Race recruits nearby, then looked at the area of strange plants in the distance emitting alluring energy fluctuations, and he made a decision in an instant.

"Dark Feather! Do not fight head-on! Use our speed advantage to hunt the other Human Race members! This Secret Realm is rich in resources; let's seize the Opportunity first!"

He let out a sharp screech, flapped his wings, and actually abandoned Ling Tian, turning into a streak of red light as he sped toward the area with the most concentrated energy deep within the Secret Realm!

Dark Feather King heard this and immediately realized. That's right! Why butt heads with this unmovable block of iron? Their goal was to hunt the Human Race and seize the Secret Realm's resources! As long as they were fast enough, could this lumbering land War Beast really catch up to him?

"Want to run?!" Ling Tian's eyes turned cold.

Because his weight had skyrocketed, he was indeed temporarily unable to fly for long periods.

Although [Gravity Control] could allow him to reduce his own weight and even achieve low-altitude gliding, his speed was far inferior to these Peng Clan members who were naturally skilled at flying.

If he let these two Demon Kings scatter and use their speed advantage to hunt recruits or snatch Secret Realm resources elsewhere, he would really find it difficult to deal with them. He had to finish them off as soon as possible!

Just as Ling Tian frowned, "Let's go, idiot! I'll take you to fly!" Xia Youchu's cold voice rang in his ear.

She quickly formed hand seals, and a profound and obscure fluctuation spread from her body! Yuan Emperor-grade secret technique: [Void Borrowing]!

This was a secret technique she had created in her past life after reaching the Yuan Emperor Realm, inspired by observing the heavens and earth. It allowed her to fly for a short time by borrowing the momentum of the surrounding space, and she could even carry objects!

Of course, forcing it with her current Yuan Spirit three-star cultivation level placed a huge burden on her.

Hum! Invisible space energy wrapped around Xia Youchu and Ling Tian. The next instant, Xia Youchu felt as if she were carrying a ten-thousand-foot divine mountain on her back!

"Damn! Why are you so heavy?! You need to lose weight!!" Her pretty face flushed instantly, and she felt the Yuan power in her body flowing away like a flood from an opened gate, while her Meridians throbbed with sharp pain!

This idiot's weight was just too exaggerated! He wasn't just solid; he was practically a neutron star!

Ling Tian curled his lip: "Isn't it just that you are too weak? You can't even bear this little bit of weight?"

"Less nonsense! Hurry up!" Xia Youchu gritted her teeth, forcing herself to activate the secret technique, and soared into the sky with Ling Tian's massive body!

Although the speed was not as fast as Red Feather King and Dark Feather King flying at full power, it was far faster than Ling Tian's own movement speed!

"What?!" Dark Feather King, who was about to flee, saw Xia Youchu actually flying with that terrifying War Beast, and was so frightened that his soul flew away and spirit scattered!

How was this possible?! That human girl was only at the Yuan Spirit Realm! How could she possibly carry such a large War Beast to fly?!

He flapped his wings desperately, wanting to accelerate and escape.

"Where do you think you're going!" A fierce light flashed in Ling Tian's eyes. Although the feeling of being carried by Xia Youchu while flying was awkward, it didn't affect his ability to attack!

He opened his big mouth, and deep in his throat, destructive Star Power and destructive Divine Thunder gathered rapidly! [Death Star Breath]!

Boom—!!! A terrifying beam of light, entwined with destructive stars and dark red thunder, instantly tore through the air and caught up to the fleeing Dark Feather King at an astonishing speed!

"Dodge quickly—!!" Dark Feather King felt the destructive energy fluctuations behind him and twisted his body desperately, trying to dodge. But the speed of [Death Star Breath] was too fast! And the coverage area was huge!

Puchi—! Half of Dark Feather King's wing, along with a small part of his body, melted instantly upon contact with the breath! He let out a miserable, piercing scream and fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string!

How could Ling Tian let this Opportunity go? Xia Youchu immediately controlled the space energy, and they pursued the direction where Dark Feather King fell, like a meteorite!

"Devour!" Ling Tian opened his giant mouth, and a terrifying suction force erupted! The not-yet-fully-dead Dark Feather King, along with his broken body, was swallowed into Ling Tian's stomach without any power to resist!

[Devoured Peng Clan Demon King, gained evolution points +8000! Strength +200! Stamina +150! Gained entry: [Great Prospects (Blue)]!]

[Great Prospects (Blue): Speed increased by 100%.]

A warm current surged into his limbs and bones, especially into his legs and spine, which were injected with a feeling of lightness! Speed increased by 100%! Although it was only a blue entry, for Ling Tian, whose movement was currently a weakness, it was like charcoal in snowy weather!

"Next!" Ling Tian's gaze instantly locked onto Red Feather King, who had already escaped some distance away!

Red Feather King looked back and saw the scene of Dark Feather King being instantly killed and swallowed, and was so frightened that his soul flew away and spirit scattered!

Too fast! Too cruel! What kind of monster combination were these two guys?!

He no longer cared about the dignity of a Demon King, burned his life essence, pushed his speed to the limit, turned into a streak of blood-colored light, and fled desperately toward the depths of the Secret Realm!

"Pursue!" Xia Youchu's face was pale, and a trace of blood even overflowed from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes remained firm. She activated [Void Borrowing] again, chasing closely with Ling Tian!

However, the speed of Red Feather King after burning his life essence was simply too fast! And Xia Youchu carrying Ling Tian to fly caused her Yuan power to be consumed like a floodgate opening. After chasing for only a dozen miles, she felt dizzy, and her Yuan power was about to be exhausted!

"I can't do it... idiot... I can't hold on..." Xia Youchu's voice was weak, and the space fluctuations around her began to become unstable.

Ling Tian also felt Xia Youchu's state. He glanced at Red Feather King, which had already put more distance between them, and felt the power he had gained from devouring Dark Feather King and the newly acquired entry.

The speed boost brought by [Great Prospects] made him feel that his body was much lighter. Although he still couldn't fly, his movement speed on the ground had absolutely skyrocketed by a large margin!

"Enough! Leave the rest to me!" Ling Tian growled.

Xia Youchu heard this and immediately withdrew [Void Borrowing]. The two fell from dozens of meters in the air. Ling Tian landed on all fours, making a dull, loud sound and smashing several shallow pits into the ground. Xia Youchu stumbled, then quickly sat cross-legged to swallow a Medicinal Pill, recovering her Yuan power with all her might.

Red Feather King looked back and saw Xia Youchu and Ling Tian fall. At first, he was happy, but then he saw Ling Tian's murderous gaze locked tightly onto him, and he couldn't help but feel a chill.

He forced himself to stay calm, and while continuing to flee, he used Mental Energy to mock: "Hmph! Stupid land crawler! You think you can catch up to this King? Dreaming!"

"Wait until this King finds the Secret Realm core and obtains the supreme Opportunity; I will definitely peel your skin and pull your tendons to vent the hatred in my heart!"

He didn't believe that this un-flying iron block could catch up to him in this complex and rugged Secret Realm!

However, the next moment, the mockery on his face froze! Down below, Ling Tian's four limbs exerted force suddenly! Boom! The ground exploded into a deep pit! His massive body, like a cannonball fired from a chamber, with an unstoppable Aura, began to sprint in the direction he was fleeing!

It was actually not the least bit slower than Red Feather King's low-altitude flight speed?!

"How is it possible?!?" Red Feather King was so frightened that his soul flew away and spirit scattered, flapping his wings desperately, pushing his speed to the limit. He kept changing directions, trying to use his aerial advantage to shake off Ling Tian.

However, although Ling Tian couldn't fly, his straight-line sprinting speed was simply too fast! And, he had a long-range attack! Death Star Breath!

Boom!!! Another destructive breath shot into the sky, grazing Red Feather King's tail feathers and directly pulverizing a stone peak in the distance into dust!

"Dead wings, flap faster!!"

Red Feather King's feathers stood on end in fear. He no longer dared to fly in a straight line and began performing various high-difficulty evasive maneuvers in the air. He regretted his actions so much that his intestines were turning green!

If he had known this monster was so perverted and held such a grudge, he shouldn't have taken this mission! Wasn't it just an ambush on a group of Human Race recruits? How could it have led to such a star of disaster?!

"Damn it! Stop chasing!! What exactly do you want?!" Red Feather King yelled in frustration using Mental Energy while fleeing in a sorry state.

Ling Tian's response was simple and brutal. Another Death Star Breath! This time, the breath predicted his evasion trajectory and slammed heavily into a stone forest in front of him!

Boom! Rocks flew into the sky, and smoke and dust filled the air! Red Feather King was forced to change direction, and his speed stalled again. And with just this delay, the distance between him and the sprinting Ling Tian below narrowed by a huge margin!

Red Feather King could even clearly see his own panicked figure reflected in the opponent's cold vertical pupils!

"Madman! You madman!!" Red Feather King's mentality completely collapsed. He felt like a poor little bird targeted by a beast, no matter how he flew, he couldn't escape the opponent's hunting range. Fight, he couldn't win. Run, he couldn't escape. Beg for mercy, the opponent ignored it completely. This feeling was too desperate!

"I'll fight you to the death!!"
