Chapter 463: A Feast of Fire
For this sudden change, the happiest is Lu Yi and the others, they are happy to watch the two sides fight to the death, both lose, it is best that no one on both sides dies, so Lu Yi hugged the ugly child and Ouyang Wuji sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight.
The battle between the two sides can be described as extremely tragic, because the strength is comparable, and the number is about the same, it can be said that the two sides are evenly matched, and the more such a battle, the more difficult it is to distinguish the superior, the two sides soon developed from the initial attack for the purpose of driving each other away into a real knife and real gun, and the tragic fight between tens of thousands of demon beasts, Lu Yi saw it for the first time.
The density of the jungle is very large, Qingwu's air superiority is greatly limited, and hand-to-hand combat is not what birds and monsters are good at, so after the fire rat was passively beaten from the beginning to successfully attracted Qingwu to start the hand-to-hand combat that he was good at, the scene gradually favored their side. In addition, the number of fire rats was much more than that of Qingwu, so in just half a pillar of incense, Qingwu suffered thousands of casualties, and the loss of fire rats was less than five hundred.
"Quack!" A sharp birdsong sounded, and the Qingwu who was originally entangled with the fire rat got rid of their opponents and flew into the sky again, but this time they flew relatively low, basically grazing the heads of those low trees, and began to spray fireballs at the fire rats on the ground. But this time, Qingwu learned to behave, not only attacking the fire rats on the ground, but also the surrounding trees became their targets, and soon, a raging fire broke out in the woods, and the fire rats had nowhere to hide, and a large number of them died in an instant.
However, the fireballs spewed by the green crows are not endless, under normal circumstances, after a green crow spits out about ten or so fireballs, it lacks spiritual power, and soon, most of the green crows are no longer able to continue to spit fireballs, and the fire rats finally succeeded in withstanding the long-range attack of the green crows after paying the price of nearly five thousand damages, and began to continue to advance.
The green crows who have lost their long-range attack ability are now croaking in a hurry, but they are at a loss for the continued advancement of the fire rats, hand-to-hand combat is definitely not good, after the battle just now, the green crows clearly know that the melee combat is definitely not the opponent of the fire rats. However, the sound of the chorus of thousands of birds is not small, especially the annoying "quack" sound, which makes people upset for a while.
In fact, the crisis of the Qingwu is not limited to this, just when they started a vicious battle with the fire rats, new demon beasts have continued to appear in the dense forests in all directions, and more fire attribute demon beasts such as fire cloud leopards, fire wolves, red lin pythons, etc., have rushed over, hiding their heads and tails in the forest, and secretly leaning towards the dragon claw fire pine, among which there are many fifth-order and sixth-order demon beasts. It seems that the attraction of this fire pine cone is really big enough, and the fire attribute demon beasts within a radius of thousands of miles have basically begun to appear nearby to come to this fire feast.
Lu Yi watched all this in the air, and couldn't help but become more anxious in his heart, as more and more demon beasts appeared, and high-level demon beasts also appeared frequently, Lu Yi knew that it would be more and more difficult for him to obtain this fire pine cone. Lu Yi didn't think about secretly flying over to pick the fire pine cone when Qingwu was fighting with the fire rat, but this fire pine cone would only have an extraordinary effect after it naturally fell off from the branches after it was ripe, and picking it in advance basically had no effect, so Lu Yi could only watch the demon beasts around him gather more and more, but he couldn't make a move.
Qingwu and Fire Rat have now realized the crisis, and the two sides have stopped fighting each other, and instead they are vigilantly staring at the other demon beast populations that continue to appear. Soon, it seemed that the two sides had reached a tacit understanding, and each of them began to drive away other demon beasts in this direction in one direction, and continued to move towards the dragon claw fire pine. Because there are too many Qingwu and Fire Rats, those scattered other demon beasts have been driven to the other two directions, while Qingwu and Fire Rat each occupy two of the four sides of the Dragon Claw Fire Pine, it seems that they have also understood that it is impossible for either side to swallow this fire pine cone alone, and can only occupy one side to try to obtain as many fruits as possible.
The monsters that were driven to the other two directions were not very peaceful, and there were also some sneak attacks and fights between each other from time to time, and there were constantly monsters killed or injured or driven away, and new monsters were constantly coming, and the scene seemed chaotic for a while.
This situation has been maintained for more than ten days, and these days, not counting the large-scale conflict between Qingwu and the fire rat at the beginning, the number of dead and injured various demon beasts alone has exceeded a thousand. In addition to the two giant demon beast groups of Qingwu and Fire Rat, the number of scattered various demon beasts has also reached nearly five thousand, Lu Yi was very surprised by this, he didn't expect that there were so many demon beasts in this dense forest, and he didn't know where they were usually hidden. Maybe it's because the temptation of the fire pine cone is too great, maybe it's because Lu Yi and the others are lonely, and all the demon beasts waiting for the fire pine cone feel that they won't pose any threat, so these demon beasts surprisingly didn't attack the two of them, but they were all extremely nervous and greedily staring at the fire pine cone without relaxing, for fear of missing the best time to snatch the fire pine cone when it ripened and fell.
As the aura of the fire element emitted from the fire pine cone became stronger and stronger, and the emotions of the demon beasts became more and more restless, Lu Yi knew that the fire pine cone should be ripe soon. Lu Yi and Ouyang Wuji had already discussed, with the current situation, it was impossible for the two of them to swallow the fire pine cones alone, the two had already locked one or two fire pine cones each, and when they matured and fell, they rushed over and tried to get the target in their hands.
A gust of wind blew, and the fire pine cone swayed gently with the wind, swaying. The demon beasts that had been waiting for many days were ready to move, and Lu Yi and Ouyang Wuji also concentrated on locking on the target with all their might.
"Wow!" a high-pitched and mournful cry came from the distant sky, and all the demon beasts were startled. Lu Yi and Ouyang Wuji also raised their heads in horror and looked in the direction where the sound came from. I saw a pink "colored cloud" appear in the sky, the colorful cloud came in an instant, it turned out to be hundreds of giant cranes with pink feathers, most of the ranks of these giant cranes are in the sixth order, each giant crane's wingspan is not less than three zhang, pink feathers, fiery red leg bones and sharp claws, up to three feet long beak as sharp as a sword, very powerful. At the beginning, the five giant cranes covered in fiery red were even more wingspans of five zhang, and the powerful aura of the seventh-order demon beasts on their bodies was even more released.
Flamingo!
All beasts are terrified!
Lu Yi and the others frowned!
The Crane Clan, not only has superb strength, but also has a high level of intelligence, and is the king of the Phoenix Clan among the birds and monsters. This group of flaming cranes is one of the main branches of the crane clan, and their arrival has caused great fear and uneasiness among all the demon beasts that are waiting for the fire pine cones to ripen.
The first to have a strong reaction was the Qingwu, Qingwu, as a demon bird that retains part of the bloodline of Tianfeng, has always been disgusted with the crane clan, and seeing that the fruit that he has been waiting for for a long time is about to be inserted by the fire crane, he is naturally unwilling in his heart. "Quack!", a chirp came from the group of green crows, and tens of thousands of green crows who had already recuperated their spirits fired a volley of fireballs at the flaming cranes that flew in front of them.
Hundreds of sixth-order flaming cranes were arranging themselves in a fan shape under the leadership of five seventh-order flaming cranes, and when they saw Qingwu's fireball volley, a contemptuous look flashed in the eyes of the first seventh-order flaming crane. "Wow!" A clear sound, led by this crane, all the flaming cranes stopped in the air in unison, and all the flaming cranes fluttered their huge wings at the same time, and flapped their wings in unison in the direction where the fireball was flying. The wind suddenly came, and hundreds of huge flamingos fanned their wings together, generating a powerful air current, which instantly blew the fireballs sent by the green black out of direction, some of them were biased to the side, some fell to the ground, and some were even blown back by the strong wind. Anyway, none of the fireballs could get close to the flamingos.
The first blow failed to make a contribution, and before the Qingwu people carried out a second attack, they saw that the five seventh-order fire cranes led by them raised their heads in unison, and the next moment, the five fire cranes nodded violently in the direction of the Qingwu group, and opened their mouths to spew out five fireballs, the fireballs were already blazing white because the temperature was too high, and the five fireballs came out, which seemed to be only the size of a fist, but on the way to the Qingwu group at a rapid pace, they instantly swelled to the grinding plate. The Qingwu group scattered and fled in horror, but the fireball suddenly burst open at the moment when it flew into the Qingwu group, and the five fireballs were like five *, instantly covering the range of a hundred zhang, and the violent white light flashed, and there was nothing in the space within the range of a hundred zhang, and the five or six hundred Qingwu who were originally scattered and dodging in all directions turned into ashes and disappeared.
This is not the end, I saw hundreds of sixth-order fire cranes behind the five seventh-order fire cranes raising their heads in unison, and then hundreds of fireballs quickly hit the green black that was scattering and fleeing, these fireballs did not explode in the air like the five fire cranes before, but they became much larger in the air and smashed towards the green black group, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of green black souls returned to the sky. In one round, Qingwu suffered more than 1,000 casualties. "Quack!" A rapid chirp came, and more than a dozen sixth-order green crows took the lead in escaping into the distance, and the remaining green crows were extremely panicked, scattering and fleeing away like headless flies, and disappeared from Lu Yi and Ouyang Wuji's field of vision in a blink of an eye.
The other demon beasts were also shocked by the wave of attacks just now from the Fire Crane, and some of the demon beasts that were closer couldn't help but retreat one after another to maintain a safe distance from the Fire Crane. Lu Yi and the others glanced at each other, and they were extremely shocked by such an organized attack by the Fire Crane.
"Whew!" another crane roared, and I saw hundreds of fire cranes moving in unison, forming a ring in the air to surround the entire dragon claw fire pine, and the four seventh-order fire cranes stood in four directions, proudly facing the beasts. The other seventh-order fire crane, the largest and obviously the leader of this group of fire cranes, stood tall on the top canopy of the dragon claw fire pine, and a pair of round black crane eyes looked around, quite proud of the world.
It's just that when its eyes swept to Lu Yi and the ugly child who was held in his arms, his eyes were obviously staring, and his eyes stopped directly on Lu Yi and the ugly child, Lu Yi sighed in his heart, and secretly screamed, "Not good!"
