Chapter 40 Country Girl, Pursued by the Immortal King
Chapter 40 Country Girl, Pursued by the Immortal King
"Clang!"
Between the opening and closing of the double pupils, wisps of runes flickered. These eyes were terrifying; they were truly the eyes of a god, as if they possessed some kind of demonic power.
Shi Zhao quietly retreated, shielding everyone in front of him, concealing his merit and fame.
"Ah!" The foxy girl felt a chill run down her spine just by looking into his eyes. She immediately fell to the ground, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth. An indelible and terrifying mark was left in her heart.
When Shi Yi's gaze swept over another smiling young girl beside him, his expression suddenly froze, turning from deep to intense, and his four pupils contracted sharply.
But then, the ferocious beast beside him seized the opportunity of his distraction and pounced on him fiercely.
"Uncle, look, I didn't even have to lift a finger. I just glanced at him and knocked Shi Yi down." Shi Zhao put his hands behind his back and smiled brightly.
"..." The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.
He felt that this place was not a good place to stay. If his conversation with the girl reached Shi Yi's ears, he would be beaten black and blue.
"Could it be that you really are a little celestial maiden?" he asked in a low voice.
"No, I'm from the countryside!" Shi Zhao insisted stubbornly.
The middle-aged man refused to believe it no matter what. Now he was starting to think that this little girl might be a princess from some tribe or even a princess from some country.
It might not even be a human, but a pure-blooded ferocious beast from the ancient sacred mountain in human form.
He wanted to ask something else, but then he heard countless people around him gasp in surprise.
In that instant, a fierce wind arose from all directions, and the light of the interwoven runes burst forth like lightning, engulfing the Beast King and causing him to let out a mournful roar.
"BOOM—!!"
Mountains collapsed and the earth shattered. It's hard to imagine that someone could unleash such a devastating attack at the Blood Transformation Realm, but the person with double pupils has done it.
With double pupils opening the heavens, its power astonished the world!
"Where is she?" Shi Yi suddenly appeared in front of the middle-aged man and asked coldly.
"I...I don't know." The middle-aged man's legs went weak when he was glared at by the double pupils, and he almost knelt down. Only then did he realize that the mysterious girl had disappeared.
"Yi'er, come back quickly, breaking the record is the priority," Shi Yuan called out.
Shi Yi snorted coldly and stopped holding back. His double pupils burst forth with brilliant light as he forcefully killed the remaining beast kings.
Soon, a stone tablet appeared, indicating that Shi Yi had broken the record of the Void God Realm and rewarding him. Instantly, a dazzling light illuminated the sky.
The stone tablet has several lines of text that record the result: Shi Yi, with double pupils and the ability to open the heavens, killed the Nine-Headed Beast King in one battle, setting a record for the most kings killed in the initial land!
Everyone knows that this record is extraordinary and of extremely high value.
In the first battle, it was besieged by the Nine-Headed Beast King and killed them all, a feat that can be described as extremely glorious.
Because this is the ultimate manifestation of true combat power, and it is also the fundamental goal that many people strive to achieve by honing their skills.
Unfortunately, the Realm of the Void Gods will provide corresponding protection for such challenges, concealing the challenger's aura and preventing the precious techniques he uses from being exposed to the public.
Therefore, the crowd of onlookers were destined never to see what the double pupils opening the heavens meant.
As for Shi Zhao, he had already followed behind two unscrupulous old men.
"Grandpa, your bird is so beautiful!" The girl blinked her big, innocent eyes, her gaze fixed on the five-colored bird perched on one of the old men's shoulders.
The two old people looked at each other, their lips curled into a smile, and they laughed at the same time, their tacit understanding was astonishing, everything was understood without words.
"This bird is no ordinary bird; it possesses the legendary...phoenix bloodline."
"That's right, that's right, it's five-colored, and the phoenix is also five-colored, it matches!"
The two unscrupulous old men began to put on a great show.
"So..." The girl was even more excited, her joy overflowing.
"Since we've met, it must be fate. Young friend, I see you have fair skin and a graceful figure, truly the appearance of an immortal. I'll take a small loss to make a good connection. I'll sell it to you cheaply for only 998 precious stones!" Bird Master said with a wave of his hand, very generously.
Before the girl could speak, another old man grabbed his sleeve and cried out in anguish:
"No, my old friend, this phoenix was incredibly hard-won. We went through countless trials and tribulations to obtain just one egg, and then spent countless rare and precious materials to hatch it. This essence is far too little..."
Shi Zhao almost burst out laughing. He took a deep breath, his big eyes darted around, and then he pounced forward, snatched the five-colored bird, and started running with his long legs.
"Hey, you can't say that, young friend... uh, my bird!?" Bird Lord's eyes widened instantly, and he let out a sharp cry, which had a hint of a dragon's roar.
Many people around were shaken and dizzy. Some couldn't take it, their eyes rolled back, and they were inexplicably "offline," which later became a strange case.
"Hey, this little girl is really nimble. She reminds me of that little girl who broke the initial speed record back then." Grandpa Jiaqian stroked his beard, lost in thought.
"You know what, you really do know, the back view does look somewhat similar. Could it really be the same person? The little girl has grown up, her legs are longer, and she runs faster too."
"I don't care if she's a person or not, the hatred for stealing my bird is irreconcilable, chase after her!" Bird Lord roared to the sky, his eyes almost red, and he chased after her all the way.
Then, they were stopped by a glowing, inscribed stone tablet.
"That's right, eating, sleeping, and beating her little brother, she really is that little girl from back then." Grandpa Jingbi, who had been shouting for more money, chuckled.
Since it wasn't his bird that was stolen, he wasn't worried at all.
Bird Master's face darkened, and he glared angrily, blowing his beard and staring.
What kind of nonsense is this? She stole her own bird and ran away, and even broke a record along the way, a record that she herself had previously broken.
"I have never felt so refreshed." Ahead of the mountain range, Shi Zhao ran faster and faster with his long legs, and eventually even transformed into a sword with his body.
Furthermore, thanks to the power boost from breaking through the limits in the Blood Transformation Realm, his speed was unbelievably fast.
Even if a young Kunpeng were here, it wouldn't necessarily be faster than her.
"Two great immortal kings are chasing me, but I'm not worried at all, because they can't outrun me!" She almost choked on her laughter.
She didn't bother circling around in the mountains; after all, anyone can turn a bend, and speed is all about going straight. She closed her eyes and started sprinting.
The two Celestial Kings were exhausted from running behind them. Finally, Bird Lord slapped his forehead and suddenly remembered that the Five-Colored Bird was also his original form. In an instant, he summoned it back.
Grandpa Jingbi's lips twitched, and he immediately kicked her hard, showing no mercy.
Damn it, what were you doing before? You only remembered when the person was almost out of breath.
Shi Zhao looked at the five-colored bird that had vanished from his arms and finally stopped.
Just then, another stone tablet appeared before her eyes, with a line of words on it that shone with a dazzling light.
"Wow... the longest distance run?"
Meanwhile, earlier, Shi Yi seemed to have been inexplicably provoked, and after slaying the nine beast kings, he wanted to challenge the record for the fastest speed.
But just as he was preparing to take on the challenge, a new record was suddenly set.
He gritted his teeth and turned to long-distance running, but after huffing and puffing for a long time, another insurmountable record loomed before him.
"..."
