Chapter 6035: Let Them Collect
“Brother Chu Feng, did you manage to figure anything out?” Qin Xuan asked.
“It looks weirdly ambiguous. I can’t say for sure,” Chu Feng replied.
Uwa!
A shrill call suddenly echoed from the spirit formation gate, causing most people to jolt in astonishment. What happened next left many in cold sweat.
The surface of the spirit formation gate rippled like a disturbed lake, and a gigantic bird that resembled a fiery-red, divine crane emerged from it. It unfurled its ten-thousand-meter-wide wings, emanating a brilliant light and a powerful aura.
It was at pinnacle True God level.
“A pinnacle True God level monstrous beast!”
Some of the Ancient Era’s juniors revealed flustered looks. Even though they were holding onto energy-filled tokens, they didn’t have the confidence to deal with such powerful entities.
This bird wielded strength comparable to a galaxy overlord, after all. How could they not be frightened?
However, the Redsoul Sect’s young master trembled in excitement as he could tell that the brilliant light coming from the bird was a rare power. He widened his eyes in realization as he murmured, “Is this why we had to collect energies from the formations?”
He took out a token while cackling under his veil. There was a small window in the token that reflected a realm that contained nothing but ferocious flames. These were no ordinary flames, for their prowess was comparable to a pinnacle True God level cultivator.
This token was of a higher quality, so he was able to make some modifications to it to further boost the prowess of the energy it had collected. Thus, he was confident that the energy he had collected was superior to everyone else’s.
He didn’t think that the pinnacle True God level bird would pose a challenge to him.
As he looked at his masterpiece, the unease he had felt earlier over Chu Feng faded, replaced by confidence and glee. He murmured with a smirk. “Chu Feng, you were too cowardly to collect any energy, so you have lost your right to compete with me. How dare a present-era bumpkin try to challenge me? What arrogance!”
He flitted in the direction of the spirit formation gate. His target was the bird.
The bird was powerful, but it showed no inclination to attack anyone after emerging from the spirit formation gate. Instead, it kept circling the spirit formation gate.
Upon reaching a certain distance from the spirit formation gate, the Redsoul Sect’s young master tossed out his token and formed a hand seal.
The token expanded to over a hundred meters in length, and blazing flames surged out from it.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master changed his hand seal, and the blazing flames gushed toward the bird as a massive flame pillar that spanned over a thousand meters in width.
“Someone has made a move,” Qin Xuan exclaimed.
The others noticed the commotion too.
“It’s the Redsoul Sect’s young master,” Chu Feng said.
“It’s possible to steal the power shrouding that bird. He must be after that,” Yuwen Yanri said.
The sky turned fiery red. By this point, there were already dozens of flame pillars, and they swept across the sky in an orderly fashion.
The bird could still dodge the flame pillars at the start, but as the flame pillars increased in number, it was soon struck in its wing and ended up plummeting to the ground.
Knowing this was an opportunity, the Redsoul Sect’s young master quickly changed his hand seal. All the flame pillars changed their trajectories and simultaneously rushed at the bird.
Boom!
The prowess of the flame pillars was made even more evident when they gushed toward the ground and scorched everything within a radius of a hundred million meters. Under such might, the bird breathed its last.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master returned the flames into the token with a hand seal, but a crack formed on the token.
Surprised, he hurriedly constructed a sealing formation to stabilize the token, but the sealing formation shattered right away. The token broke a moment later, and the energy it contained dissipated into the surroundings.
“I see. The token can only be used once, even if its energy isn’t depleted,” the Redsoul Sect’s young master murmured regretfully.
His regret didn’t last long, as he flitted over to the bird.
The bird’s flesh had been reduced to ashes; only a charred skeleton remained in a massive pit blasted by those flame pillars. The bird was dead, but the power shrouding it remained intact.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master took out a golden vat covered in runes and constructed a formation around it. Then, he collected the power in the golden vat.
“Young master, what is that?”
A few Redsoul Sectmembers, together with some Ancient Era’s and present-era juniors, gathered around to take a closer look. They had been paying close attention to the situation, and they had long figured out the intention of the Redsoul Sect’s young master.
“I don’t know what it is yet, but I’m sure there will be a use for it,” the Redsoul Sect’s young master replied.
Grar!
More shrill calls echoed from the spirit formation gate. They sounded identical to the one they had heard earlier, but there were more this time.
The spirit formation gate rippled, and more birds emerged from it.
This time, there were a hundred of them. Their appearances and cultivations were identical to the one before, but instead of circling the spirit formation gate, they dove straight for the Redsoul Sect’s young master and his teammates!
“Don’t panic. I’ll deal with them.”
The Redsoul Sect’s young master, having the experience of subduing one, didn’t think that these birds could pose a threat to him, even when there were more of them now. He took out another token and channeled it.
Several flame pillars gushed out from the token to attack the birds.
However, this flock of birds, despite their identical appearances and cultivations, had greater combat experience than the one who came before.
The initial onslaught of the flame pillars only managed to kill a few of the birds.
However, the Redsoul Sect’s young master was not to be trifled with either. His skillful control of the flames kept the birds firmly at bay, putting the birds at a disadvantage.
“Why are those birds proactively attacking them now?” Qin Xuan was confused.
“It could be possible that the birds attack anyone who comes within a certain range, and the Ancient Era’s juniors happen to be in their attacking range,” Yuwen Yanri suggested.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master eventually succeeded in taking down all hundred birds, but the fight was dragged out for so long that he had to use three tokens.
More birds emerged from the spirit formation gate. This time, there were hundreds of them.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master remained unflustered. He took out another token and channeled its energy to fight them.
“Brother Chu Feng, this won’t do. They will be monopolizing all the birds’ powers at this rate!” Qin Xuan exclaimed, hoping that Chu Feng would make a move.
If the energies they had collected earlier were to hunt down these birds and obtain their powers, they should be making a move right now instead of idling by the side.
“Let them collect all they want,” Chu Feng replied with a relaxed smile.
