Chapter 158: Chapter 159: The Eerie Golden Pupil
The sky was as clear as a wash, with few clouds today.
As Mei Yuhe and the Golden-eyed Crow approached one after another, everyone in the Ye Family focused intently.
Their spirits were highly focused.
After all, this was a hunt for a late-stage Tier Two Golden-eyed Crow.
So no amount of caution was too much.
Mei Yuhe glided down first, leaving a stunning white arc.
At the same time, the Golden-eyed Crow cawed twice, its golden eyes suddenly spinning. In the next moment, it opened its beak, and a fiery red flame shot toward Mei Yuhe.
This flame was extremely violent, far superior to that of the Red Flame Fox.
Mei Yuhe increased its speed again, just barely avoiding it, drawing a perfect white arc in the air.
The Golden-eyed Crow cawed angrily, gliding down in pursuit.
As it got closer, Ye Jingcheng also saw its strange golden pupils!
"No, don’t look into its eyes!" Ye Xuefu immediately transmitted a warning!
The Golden-eyed Crow’s pupils were extremely peculiar!
But it was clearly too late; the Golden-eyed Crow seemed to sense it and was about to soar into the sky!
Up there, even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was no match for a Tier Two avian beast.
Moreover, to deal with such a demon beast, if its speed wasn’t restricted, it was almost impossible to kill.
It would instead be guerilla warfare.
"We can’t wait any longer!"
Ye Xueliang’s spear moved, as did Ye Xuefu’s eyes.
The blood-red light once again shone, staring into those golden eyes!
The body of the Golden-eyed Crow paused, but the golden light soon dissolved it. Conversely, Ye Xuefu screamed, the blood glow in his pupils vanished instantly, returning to normal, and blood even seeped out.
It seemed he was seriously injured.
And at that moment, a crimson spear shot fiercely.
The Golden-eyed Crow quickly dodged, but it was clearly a bit late; the spear pierced its wing feathers, dropping a thick tuft of feathers.
Gaa gaa!
The Golden-eyed Crow’s beak opened wide in pain!
Its eyes were filled with mournful agony, its face contorted to the extreme.
Yet it didn’t fall, but at this point, the Mei Yuhe it had been chasing suddenly spread its wings to their fullest.
In the next moment, countless sharp feathers emerged from the wing feathers!
They shot out like a rain of white arrows.
The Golden-eyed Crow was furious beyond measure, but could only dodge downward.
And just as it descended to a certain height,
Ye Xuefu and Ye Jingyu waved their array banners!
Countless array banners and foundations appeared in the void, quickly intertwining into a circle.
Trapping the Golden-eyed Crow within this spirit shield!
Boom!
Massive flames crashed against the spirit shield.
In an instant, the spirit array manifested countless vapors; this was a water attribute trapping array!
These vapors scalded toward the Golden-eyed Crow!
Forcing it to retreat from the edge of the array!
At this moment, Mei Yuhe released another arrow storm, not in large numbers but just one, more slender and terrifying!
The sound of breaking through the air resounded, with dazzling white light, reaching the Golden-eyed Crow.
The latter spewed flames again, blasting the feather arrow into black fragments, with no power left.
At this time, Ye Xuefu raised his hand again, revealing a pill furnace.
The pill furnace enlarged to about ten feet high, condensing four beast shadows on it.
The four beasts resembled the four phases, with considerable power; the Golden-eyed Crow spat flames again.
Its frequency of spitting flames increased, but by observing closely, the flames’ temperature and volume were noticeably reduced.
At this moment, Ye Jingcheng and the others made their move.
Ye Jingcheng took out the Cyan Heart Mirror.
He shone it on the Golden-eyed Crow; the thick cyan light turned into sticky spiritual light, immobilizing it somewhat.
Meanwhile, Red Flame Fox, Golden Scale Beast, and Jade Qilin Snake were released by Ye Jingcheng.
Once the Red Flame Fox emerged, it opened its mouth to launch a massive fireball, with two fiery red tails swaying, the speed of the fireball increased once more, crashing fiercely onto the Golden-eyed Crow.
Yet the latter seemed highly resistant to flames.
Only its black feathers became more charred, emitting an unpleasant odor.
Nearby, the Golden Scale Beast also cast Earth Spike.
But because of the certain height, by the time the Earth Spike reached, the Golden-eyed Crow had already broken free from the cyan light, rushing aside.
Its current sole focus was to break the array!
However, this trapping array was specially designed for the Golden-eyed Crow.
It couldn’t easily escape, and beside it, Mei Yuhe continued its assault, along with a giant Black Armored Scorpion King and a group of ordinary Black Armored Scorpions.
These Black Armored Scorpions all had a layer of insect wings.
The Scorpion King had thicker wings and moved at terrifying speed.
All these Black Armored Scorpions held their tails high, ready to inject their long-stored venom into the Golden-eyed Crow at any moment.
And Ye Xuefu also released his spirit beast, a Flaming Cyan Ox.
This cyan ox’s eyes were also fiery red; evidently, Ye Xuefu’s eye divine technique was inherited from this ox.
The Flaming Cyan Ox could even walk on flames.
It charged directly at the Golden-eyed Crow.
The Golden-eyed Crow cawed despairingly, and at this point, it spat out its inner core, seemingly to unleash its final fiery attack.
However, just then, a Jade Qilin Snake suddenly snuck up behind it, a massive Jade Qilin Tail Saber descending, slashing with white jade light!
Incredibly fast!
The Golden-eyed Crow dodged again with a screech.
The pressure from the Jade Qilin Tail Saber was immense, and after dodging, it spewed flames once more, then flew upward!
But it didn’t anticipate that the Jade Qilin Snake opened its mouth, spitting out countless venom.
This time, the Golden-eyed Crow couldn’t dodge because Mei Yuhe also shot spirit feather arrows.
The pressure was even greater, along with the Flaming Cyan Ox’s charge and fiery gaze!
In the end, it was hit by the venom.
The venom continued to corrode its charred body, causing the Golden-eyed Crow to struggle maintaining stable flight.
Then another fireball was launched!
Boom!
It landed on the Golden-eyed Crow.
This fireball skill was larger, a fireball the Red Flame Fox had gathered for some time.
Intense flames, like a small sun, enveloped the Golden-eyed Crow within.
At the same time, a figure took the chance to leap high, and in the next moment, a black triangular pyramid shot forth from a snake-scaled figure, pierced through the void, and finally pierced the Golden-eyed Crow’s heart!
Gaa... gaa!
The Golden-eyed Crow instantly dropped dead, falling toward the ground.
The snake-scaled figure was Ye Xueliang; he reached out to grab a storage bag, collecting the Golden-eyed Crow’s corpse to prevent it from crashing to the ground, breaking into pieces.
The blood and flesh of this Tier Two Demon Beast were very valuable, let alone its pair of golden eyes, which could be made into a magical artifact.
Moreover, Mei Yuhe also placed a black spirit egg down there.
Ye Xueliang caught it in his hands, placing it into the Spirit Beast Bag as well.
"Pack up the array, I’ll make another round!" Ye Xueliang declared, retracting the Black Armored Scorpion King’s claws, and scooping Mei Yuhe back in.
He handed over the storage bag with the Golden-eyed Crow’s corpse and the Spirit Beast Bag containing the spirit egg to Ye Xuefu.
"Everyone, clean up the site and sprinkle some powder!"
Then we’ll head back first!" Ye Xuefu began speaking while collecting the array banners.
Beside him, the Flaming Cyan Ox started covering them.
They must leave quickly.
