The first thing that appeared in the sky over Xianyang was a strange beast that looked like a bird but was not a bird.
Its wings are dozens of feet long and spread out like a large eagle.
What's weird is that it has a yellow-brown, leopard-like face, a spiral horn on its head, and its texture is coiled and curved.
It vibrated the voice of the spirit in the sky: "Human Emperor, will you give me the spiritual root fruit?!"
This strange beast is called the Gu Eagle, and it is an evil beast that has been passed down orally since ancient times.
Its appearance enveloped the sky of Xianyang, and the cry of a baby spread, full of ominousness.
But as soon as his voice fell, he felt pressure approaching from behind him, and a big, noble bird like a black phoenix flew from the clouds.
The Gu carving feathers glowed, its speed increased sharply, and it avoided in a strange arc.
But the black bird opened its mouth again and spit out a ball of black flame.
When the Gu eagle dodged again, a tail rolled out of thin air from where it landed and hit the bone eagle's back.
Immediately afterwards, another pair of fleshy little claws came out of the void and kicked the bone sculpture's eyes squarely.
Then another tiger claw poked out of the void and pulled it into a picture scroll.
The picture scroll was filled with origin words, intertwined and combined in an array, instantly covering the bone carvings.
Visible to the naked eye, the feathers of the Gu sculpture melt inside the scroll and are refined by the array of origin words.
It flapped its wings in the scroll, trying to break it open, but it struggled several times and was suppressed by the scroll.
Four hits at a time.
Black Bird, and then the powerful and heavy tail that was pulled out of thin air was one of the tails behind Lu Wu.
As for the pair of legs that were kicked out and almost blinded the Gu Diao, it was Fat Rabbit who was taking advantage.
Finally, Fat Tiger dragged the Gu sculpture into the Demon Refining Diagram, and used the Origin Array of the Demon Refining Diagram to penetrate the soul and refine the Gu sculpture.
The sky above Xianyang suddenly became quiet as the Gu Eagle was dragged into the Demon Refining Chart.
You must know that the Gu Eagle is not an ordinary creature, it is a famous ferocious beast.
However, how fast it comes out is how painful it is to die.
As soon as I started, I was surrounded by a circle of mythical beasts. Four against one, I was pinned down before I could show my performance.
On the five-needle pine, the monsters who feel they do not belong to the circle of mythical beasts have not moved away:
"Those idiots all rushed forward. Don't you know that the first ones to appear were the ones who were pushed forward to die?
If this demon master’s prediction is correct, the public call for formation is a cover-up to conceal the true purpose... I will sit here in the five-needle pine and see who dares to come and die!"
The monster felt that he was very clever, so the old god blew out a breath, and his body transformed into the void and disappeared without a trace.
Wealth and silk are attractive to people's hearts, not to mention the result of spiritual roots that are rare in a lifetime.
Not long after the monster hid, a ray of breath spread silently in the void and approached the two fruits on the five-needle pine.
The deserted suburbs outside Xianyang City.
A thin, short, eerie old man wearing a black robe like a shroud stood in the darkness behind a low hill.
He was holding a bamboo slip in his hand.
The simple book unfolded, and the array of mantras engraved on the surface glowed, creating ripples like water patterns. The scene reflected in it was the five-needle pine.
Two pieces of the bamboo slips fell off and merged into the scene in front of the old man, generating breath and ingesting the fruits of the five-needled pine tree through the air.
The old man held his breath and concentrated: Although it is a pity to lose a Gu carving, it is obviously worth it to get this divine object of creation, the spiritual root of heaven and earth!
Gu Diao and the old man are one in the light and the other in the dark.
The Gu carving is in the light, and the old man is in the dark.
His purpose is to take advantage of the special properties of bamboo slips to steal treasures from a distance without anyone noticing.
The Gu Eagle was released to attract fire. It was somewhat unexpected that the Gu Eagle would be killed so quickly.
This made the old man even more cautious. He was very careful. Even though the bamboo slips had a special function and he was far away from Xianyang, the old man still restrained the fluctuations of mana in his body and hid himself well.
Until the mana picture pushed by the bamboo slip in his hand, the two strands of Qi released by it successfully approached the two five-needle pine fruits and tightly wrapped them. The process went smoothly.
Next is the critical moment to take away the fruit.
The old man took a deep breath, reached out his hand, and inserted it into the ancient scroll.
His hand penetrated the bamboo slip here, but appeared out of nowhere near the five-needle pine on the other side, grabbing the fruit.
Click!
There were two soft sounds, and the branch of the tree broke.
The two fruits were caught by the old man and picked from the tree.
But he was not surprised, everything seemed to be going too smoothly.
The old man's heart sank slightly and he was about to withdraw his hand.
He found that the scene in front of him began to collapse, and the two five-needle pine fruits that fell into his hands also turned into two qi machines and dissipated.
"Fake...illusion!"
The old man felt his hands tighten.
On the five-needle pine opposite, a black hand stretched out from the distance and shook his hand.
The touch of that hand was rough, and it carried a terrifying power like fire.
The monster poked its ugly face as big as a millstone out of the void, with a ferocious look on its face.
A huge force came and dragged the old man through the air.
The space where he was was shattered.
The old man was involuntarily pulled in front of him by the monster. The two faced each other, very close.
Click!
The monster had a black demon flag in its hand and dragged the old man into it.
This demon flag is a demon weapon refined by the monster in the early years. When the demon mountain was born, the demon flag also returned to the monster's hands.
The old man fell into the banner and was refined into blood in a matter of seconds. His memory was also absorbed by the demon banner and became known to the demon.
"It turned out to be a loose immortal who stole into the human world from the fairy world. He relied on his Taoist treasure with spatial attributes to steal the spiritual roots of heaven and earth."
The old man died, and the bamboo slip in his hand fell into the hands of the monster.
He planned to dedicate it to Zhao Huaizhong later when he would be rewarded for his merits.
The monster raised his head and looked at the sky: "I am the first among a bunch of idiots rushing to the sky to grab credit..."
His figure disappeared into the void again.
Xianyang Palace.
Zhao Huaizhong took the pen that the little secretary handed over after sharpening the ink.
There was an open piece of paper in front of him.
Written on the paper are the names of the great Qin beasts and monsters.
Zhao Huaizhong first wrote a horizontal line under the monster, and then drew a stroke under the candle dragon.
In the underworld, the candle dragon has also been dispatched to stop some underworld creatures who want to snatch the five-needle pine.
Zhao Huaizhong also wrote half a stroke each under the names of Fat Hu, Lu Wu, Xuanniao and Fat Rabbit.
When this matter is over, see who writes the most "positive" characters, and the top two will get the pine nuts of the five-needle pine.
The little secretary went to make a cup of tea, while Zhao Huaizhong watched the development of the situation with the attitude of watching a drama.
However, he was also quite surprised: the innate spiritual roots were mature, the involvement was so big, and there were quite a lot of people coming from all sides...
In the sky, after the Gu sculpture, people from all walks of life appeared one after another.
The second one to come out was a strange beast that looked like a leopard, with slender ears, five tails on its back, its whole body was red, and its roar was as clear as hitting a stone, shaking people's spirits.
The name of this beast is ferocious, and it also has a bad name.
