Chapter 8: Super Spirit Beasts
In the month since defeating the Wind Hunter Wolf, Situ Zheng continued to challenge other first-order spirit beasts in the Illusion Forest.
In the past month, Situ Zheng would hunt at least one first-order spirit beast every day, and while he became stronger, he now had a basic understanding of the spirit beasts in the Illusion Forest.
Not every hunt can be rewarded, there are still some powerful races in this forest, and there are even some pseudo-divine beasts with the blood of divine beasts or even real divine beasts.
The spirit beasts of the ordinary race did not pose any threat to Situ Zheng, and those who made Situ Zheng fall behind were those super spirit beasts, that is, pseudo-divine beasts and divine beasts.
In fact, some pseudo-divine beasts and all divine beasts were born in the spirit gathering period because of their strong bloodline, and they did not need to go through the refining period, because their physical bodies were too powerful, and even surpassed the physical strength of the vast majority of human beings.
But there are very few divine beast races, there are only ten divine beast races in the Lingyu Continent, and five of them are bred by heaven and earth, which are the only ones, and only after the fall will this race give birth to new divine beasts.
Of course, among ordinary spirit beasts, some mutated spirit beasts are occasionally born, and the talents of some of these mutated spirit beasts can even be compared to pseudo-divine beasts and divine beasts.
Pseudo-divine beasts are relatively more, the so-called pseudo-divine beasts are new races born after the combination of ordinary spirits of divine beasts and other races, and they will inherit part of the bloodline of divine beasts, which is much stronger than ordinary spirit beasts.
Because the pseudo-divine beast can be said to be just the product of the whim of the divine beast, so many of them are unique, and the noble divine beast will not be lucky with the same ordinary spirit beast twice at the same time, and only a very small number of pseudo-divine beasts can form a group.
But in order to give Situ Zheng a better cultivation effect, Situ Yu specially engraved some pseudo-divine beasts and the abilities of divine beasts, and brought them back to life in the Illusion Forest, but lowered their cultivation.
There are five pseudo-divine beasts and two divine beasts in the Illusion Forest, but it is not easy to engrave the ability of these pseudo-divine beasts and divine beasts.
Both the pseudo-divine beasts and the divine beasts have extremely strong self-esteem, and the ability to engrave requires a drop of their essence blood, and this is a great shame for them, so Situ Yu spent a lot of effort just to engrave these pseudo-divine beasts and divine beasts.
The five pseudo-divine beasts are the Nether Sparrow, the Blazing Bird, the Dragon Flame Lion, the Ice Crystal Demon Jiao, and the Golden-backed Ape. The two mythical beasts are the King Kong Ape and the Sun-Swallowing Rat. Of course, Situ Zheng had no concept of divine beasts and pseudo-divine beasts at all, only knowing that they were stronger than other spirit beasts.
So far, Situ Zheng has fought with these seven super spirit beasts, but he can only barely suppress the Blazing Bird and the Ice Crystal Demon Jiao, it is difficult to kill them, and the rest of the pseudo-divine beasts are tied, as for the King Kong Ape and the Sun Swallowing Rat, Situ Zheng can't beat them at all, so he can only escape.
At this moment, Situ Zheng had just walked out of the jade pool, put on his training clothes, and was ready to enter the Phantom Forest to continue to challenge the super spirit beast.
"Now there are only those seven spirit beasts that can fight with me, and the rest of the spirit beasts are not very challenging."
Situ Zheng began to analyze his current cultivation method in his heart.
"If I can kill those seven spirit beasts, then I can conquer the Phantom Forest, and I will definitely become stronger when the time comes."
Thinking of this, Situ Zheng was still a little excited, and his eyes kept flashing.
"I was escaped by the Blazing Bird yesterday, and I'll try again today, if I can find a chance to kill him."
The Blazing Bird is the weakest of the five pseudo-divine beasts, although it has part of the bloodline of the divine beast Vermilion Bird, but it only inherits the Vermilion Bird Fire of the Vermilion Bird, or a weakened version of the Vermilion Bird Fire, which is completely incomparable with the real Vermilion Bird Fire.
In fact, the blazing bird is not Situ Zheng's opponent at all, but its speed is too fast, Situ Zheng can't catch up at all, and he can't fly away, Situ Zheng has no way.
Situ Zheng has found the blazing bird three times, the first time he was escaped by the blazing bird, and the last two times Situ Zheng was secretly attacked, but unfortunately it was still unsuccessful.
Situ Zheng came to the red sun tree where the blazing bird's nest was located, found a tree where he could observe the blazing bird's nest and jumped on it.
Situ Zheng hid his body and began to wait for the opportunity, it was still uncertain whether the Blazing Bird was in the nest, but as long as he stayed here, whether the Blazing Bird was in or out, he could immediately launch a sneak attack.
Situ Zheng's luck was not very good, and he only waited for most of the day, and the sky gradually darkened.
Finally, a red shadow flew in from a distance, it was the fiery bird!
"It's finally here!"
Seeing that the figure of the blazing bird gradually became clear, Situ Zheng also tensed his body, ready to take it down with one blow, not giving it the slightest chance to escape.
Situ Zheng saw the opportunity, and the moment the blazing bird landed, he kicked the trunk of the tree and jumped towards the blazing bird.
At the moment of jumping out, Situ Zheng had a whim, he had been attacking the Blazing Bird before, but the Blazing Bird was light and petite, and even if it hit, it didn't have a sense of strength, so why not just grab it.
Thinking of this, Situ Zheng changed his fist into a claw and grabbed it towards the blazing bird.
This time, Situ Zheng was very close to the Blazing Bird and did not expose his body, so the Blazing Bird failed to dodge again, but was caught by Situ Zheng.
The blazing bird was frightened and let out a piercing chirp, which shook Situ Zheng's eardrums, but Situ Zheng still didn't let go, how could the prey in his hand let it go.
Situ Zheng grabbed the blazing bird with one hand and fell from a high place, he did a somersault and landed firmly on the ground.
The blazing bird struggled and chirped at the same time, trying to break free from Situ Zheng's grasp.
"Hmph, you've escaped several times, but don't even think about running this time." Situ Zheng snorted coldly.
Just as Situ Zheng was about to twist the Blazing Bird's neck and absorb the power in its body, the Blazing Bird's body began to glow with fiery red, and the temperature of its body began to rise.
The dazzling light made Situ Zheng unable to open his eyes, and the heat released by the blazing bird also burned Situ Zheng's hand, and the pain made him have to let go of his hand.
The blazing bird successfully escaped, and before Situ Zheng's eyes recovered, he escaped without a trace in the blink of an eye.
When Situ Zheng opened his eyes and looked at his burned hand, he was furious and slammed his fist on the tree next to him, and after a loud bang, the big tree as thick as an adult's waist arrived.
"Ahh ~Damn it! I was actually played by this flat-haired beast! ”
After Situ Zheng vented together, the surroundings were in shambles, and several large trees fell to the ground, including the red sun tree where the blazing bird nested.
Although Situ Zheng is relatively mature in mind, he is still a child less than seven years old in the final analysis, coupled with his arrogant personality, where can he stand this anger.
Situ Zheng gradually calmed down and returned to his former calmness.
There was a cold glint in Situ Zheng's eyes.
"Humph! This damn blazing flaming bird, next time I must kill you! ”
Situ Zheng snorted coldly, shook his hand, and turned around and left the Illusion Forest.
After returning to the safe zone, Situ Zheng fell into deep thought.
The failure of this capture of the flaming bird made Situ Zheng realize a serious problem: he had no weapons!
In the previous fights with ordinary spirit beasts, he was bare-handed, and they only had the ability to attack in close quarters, Situ Zheng killed them one by one with his strength, physical strength and some skills.
But the super spirit beasts all have some talents, including the ability to attack from a distance, which makes it difficult for Situ Zheng to get close, which gives him a bit of a headache.
"Looks like my father will ask him for a weapon next time he comes."
