The Heavens: Man Covers the Heavens, Refines Treasures to Become an Emperor
Chapter 281 Like Lambs to be Slaughtered
“Rip out this land and slaughter all living things!”
Qiongqi’s voice was as deep as thunder and his eyes were as sharp as torches, as if he wanted to crush all life between heaven and earth.
It stood like a mountain, emitting a monstrous murderous aura. Every word it spoke seemed to come from the depths of hell, causing the surrounding air to distort.
“Remove all obstacles and destroy all enemies!”
The Sky-Swallowing Bird’s eyes turned bloodshot, its fangs were exposed, and its words were full of murderous intent.
The slight movement of its wings stirred up a fishy wind, and the low-level ferocious beasts all trembled in fear. They would be torn into pieces by this momentum in the next moment.
“If there are those who perform exceptionally well, they will be allowed to enter the ancient sacred mountain where I live to practice in seclusion!” Its words revealed supreme authority, declaring its promise.
The ancient sacred mountain is a holy place for practitioners. If one can step into it, even a ferocious beast can be reborn and achieve extraordinary achievements.
As soon as these words were spoken, flames of greed suddenly ignited in the eyes of countless ferocious beasts.
The temptation of the ancient sacred mountain is enough to drive any ferocious beast crazy.
They roar and become restless, ready to pounce onto the battlefield the next moment to prove their worth with blood and fighting.
“How dare you!” The little red bird let out a long, earth-shaking cry, like a thunderclap, which made the ferocious beasts within a hundred miles stop their movements involuntarily.
Its wings spread, emitting dazzling golden light, like a descending god of war.
However, despite his suppression, he could only temporarily appease a small number of the ferocious beasts.
It is difficult to reason with animals, let alone those ferocious beasts with low intelligence.
The entire wilderness fell into a frenzy of turmoil, with the roars of beasts rising one after another, deafening.
The eyes of countless ferocious beasts were filled with blood.
Those ferocious beasts that were barely suppressed by the little red bird could not help but become restless.
In such a crazy atmosphere, they simply cannot remain immune.
If they do not go with the flow, they will be the first to be torn apart and trampled upon.
The entire wilderness seemed to have fallen into an unstoppable crazy feast. The roars of countless ferocious beasts shook the earth and the air was filled with a bloody smell.
The air was filled with a strong murderous atmosphere, and even breathing made people feel suffocated.
“Little one, your supreme bone has turned into a supreme baking furnace. I will teach you what a real baking furnace looks like.”
Jiang Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed. A streak of light flew out from Xiaobudian’s chest and turned into a furnace, spanning the void.
Red flames surged and lava flowed.
The fire in the furnace appeared out of nowhere, carrying with it a tremendous heat wave, instantly turning the space within a hundred feet into a furnace.
The rich essence condensed in the void, forming a huge fire dragon that soared into the sky.
When it appeared again, it was already in the center of the battlefield between four ferocious beasts.
Red tongues of fire roamed in the void, and the dazzling light dispelled the darkness.
The four ferocious beasts felt an unprecedented threat at the same time and all turned their eyes towards the flickering flames.
“boom!”
Inside the furnace, lava gushed out and waves of fire surged.
The red flames were like a real whip, lashing the Sky-Swallowing Bird’s devilish wings.
The surface of the devil wings was instantly melted and turned into a pool of sticky liquid.
“laugh!”
The Sky-Swallowing Bird wanted to escape, but was entangled by the fire chain released by the furnace.
The fire chain followed like a shadow, tightly encircling the devil’s wings.
Every inch of contact was accompanied by a piercing burning pain. The scales on the surface of the devil’s wings twisted and deformed under the high temperature, making a “sizzling” sound.
“what!”
Sharp screams echoed in the sky.
The devil wings completely disintegrated under the high temperature of the furnace and turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.
The Sky-Swallowing Bird’s flesh and blood was also severely damaged by the continued high temperature, and black blood flowed out from the wounds.
But all this seems not enough.
Inside the furnace, the lava rolled and gradually formed a huge vortex.
In the center of the vortex, a pillar of red-gold fire shot straight into the sky and sucked the Sky-Swallowing Bird tightly.
“Sizzle!”
The Sky-Swallowing Bird’s flesh and blood body continued to twist in the pillar of fire. Its black blood was evaporated by the high temperature, and was replaced by wisps of golden steam.
These steam flow into the furnace along the fire column and merge with the molten rock inside.
The little red bird and the other two ferocious beasts were stunned.
“Is this refining?”
The little red bird’s heart was beating wildly and uncontrollably.
It had lived for so many years, but had never seen such a domineering method. A Venerable-level Sky-Swallowing Bird was refined alive like this?
What made them even more uneasy was that the smell released by the oven was mixed with a faint sense of familiarity that made them feel creepy.
That feeling was like returning to the mother’s arms, but with a bit of indescribable fear.
“So strong!”
I don’t know who spoke first, but the other two ferocious beasts couldn’t help but take a few steps back.
In the face of such a terrifying existence, the so-called battle is nothing but a joke.
Inside the furnace, the lava gradually calmed down and the flames subsided.
There was only deep fear and awe in the eyes of the four ferocious beasts.
They knew very well that the person they met today was definitely not a simple weapon refiner.
This is a terrifying existence that can control the laws of heaven and earth and refine ferocious beasts for its own use.
Such an existence is definitely not something they can easily provoke.
“Since you are here, this holy object belongs to you. I will withdraw from the fight.” Deep in the mountains, the little red bird said respectfully.
“It’s over, it’s really over this time.”
The little red bird wailed inwardly. Looking at the willow tree in front of it that was gradually waking up, it finally understood why it was trapped here.
The aura of this person reminded it of the existence that almost caused its death in the past – the god.
How do you fight with a god? Are you risking your life?
Little Red Bird had never seen such a terrifying existence in its life. Its heart was beating fast, the feathers on its wings stood up one by one, and even breathing became difficult.
It knew that it had no way out.
Just then, it noticed three ovens floating in the sky.
The ovens emitted an eerie emerald green light, floating calmly in the air like venomous snakes waiting for their prey.
The little red bird glanced at the furnaces, and the blood in its body seemed to freeze.
In the distance, the suppressed Sky-Swallowing Bird was lying on the ground, its wings badly broken and it couldn’t even utter a scream.
That poor ferocious beast in the Venerable Realm was once a terrifying existence in the Great Wilderness, but now it was like a lamb to be slaughtered, at the mercy of others.
The little red bird’s heart twitched violently.
It knows that these ovens are not just for show.
Their purpose is obvious – to deal with the remaining three people.
“Snapped!”
A furnace was spinning in the air, the space shattered instantly, and a chaotic aura spread.
When the little red bird saw this, its legs softened involuntarily. It could feel the oppression in the air, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on it, making it almost unable to breathe.
“It’s over, everything is over.” It thought desperately.
It tried to mobilize the strength in its body, but it seemed that the strength was suppressed by something and could not be used at all. Its claws were tightly grasped on the ground, and its nails were deeply sunken in the soil, but it still could not stabilize its body.
“laugh!”
With a slight sound, the three ovens started at the same time.
Before the little red bird could react, it was already restrained. It struggled, trying to escape from this terrible force, but it was all in vain.
“Why? Why is this happening?” it screamed madly in its heart.
It remembered how powerful it once was, roaming the wilderness, and no one dared to challenge it. But now, it didn’t even have the slightest room to resist.
The other two beasts suffered the same fate.
Their struggling sounds and screams echoed in the valley, but no one could save them.
Just like that, four ferocious beasts at the Venerable Realm that once roamed the wilderness were captured in one fell swoop.
The whole process was incredibly peaceful, without even any fierce fighting.
Except for the Sky-Swallowing Bird which moved at the beginning, the other ferocious beasts didn’t even have a chance to fight back.
“Is this the power of the gods?” The little red bird sighed silently in his heart.
Such an existence is simply not something that these ferocious beasts in the Venerable Realm can contend with.
As the last ferocious beast was suppressed, the entire wilderness seemed to become quiet.
Those countless ferocious beasts that were originally ready to move seemed to sense something and stopped their restless steps.
The little red bird knew that the disaster was finally over.
But the price was the lives of these four Venerable Realm ferocious beasts.
“Hey!” The little one suddenly raised his voice, dancing with excitement, pointing at the little red bird and shouting at the top of his voice: “It’s Little Red!”
The little one’s voice was still echoing in the air, and he spread his legs and ran towards the hanging little red bird.
“Xiaohong, how did you get into the master’s furnace?” The little red bird was as red as fire, except for its eyes, which were a different color.
At this moment, it made eye contact with the little one and immediately rolled its eyes.
The little one scratched his head, feeling confused, and always felt that there was something strange in Xiaohong’s eyes.
Then he blurted out: “Xiaohong, were you scolded by your master?” As soon as these words came out, the little red bird instantly lost all desire to live.
A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. You look so miserable, can’t you tell that you were beaten?
This little brat always picks on other people’s sore spots. Who did he learn this way of talking from?
However, the little red bird gradually calmed down.
I’ve played with this little guy before, and I thought I’d be able to get through this safely this time.
Things are unpredictable. A dignified Fire Nation priest now has to rely on his friendship with a little kid to hope to save his life.
“I would have let Xiaohong stay in the village a long time ago. If you hadn’t left, you wouldn’t have been punished by the master.” The little guy’s mouth was like a small trumpet that couldn’t stop, and he kept muttering to himself.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: “Xiaohong, when you left, did you have some secret plan with your master? You go over there as an insider, and when the time is right, you can catch those bad guys in one fell swoop?” The little guy’s face was full of excitement and confidence, as if he had discovered a super secret.
The little red bird was stunned by this strange idea. This childish kid was always thinking about some weird things in his head all day long!
However, Little Bit’s outrageous guess attracted the attention of the other three ferocious beasts.
Knowing such a powerful master?
Did you almost stay in this village?
This is too suspicious.
Shi Yunfeng and the others looked at the little guy with nervousness in their hearts. After all, they had personally experienced the terrifying power of these four ferocious beasts.
The tiny great-grandfather seemed to be frozen in place, he stood there stiffly, completely stunned.
In Shi Village, apart from Jiang Xuan and Xiaobutian, he is the most knowledgeable.
The Venerable-level beasts could be compared with the Human Emperor, but now, four such powerful guys were buried in the furnace like hanging pickled meat.
This is too unbelievable!
Could the little guy’s master be a god? !
Moreover, this furnace was clearly formed by Mr. Jiang connecting the supreme bone in the little guy’s body.
This is really incredible.
“Little guy, once you learn this trick, you won’t be short of supplies and food.” Jiang Xuan said with a smile.
Jiang Xuan looked at the Sky-Swallowing Bird.
This Sky-Swallowing Bird is as vicious as a vicious dragon at the bottom of the abyss, ferocious and cruel, and its actions are treacherous.
Looking back to the past, it once worshipped under a god and became his personal disciple.
As time passed, the god entered his old age, and the divine fire in his body flickered and could go out at any time.
At the critical moment of life and death, Sky-Swallowing Bird attacked without warning and betrayed his mentor.
From then on, it embarked on a bloody road. Relying on all kinds of cruel means and treacherous strategies, it transformed itself into a terrifying existence that was famous in the lower world and feared by everyone.
In the lower world, the Venerables have already stood at the pinnacle of this world. They are the ultimate symbol of the mundane world. A single gesture can cause changes in the world and they possess the power to overturn rivers and seas.
However, above the Venerable, there is the realm of the gods.
Gods are extraordinary and holy beings, but even among them, there are huge differences between them.
There are some monks who, after going through countless hardships and tribulations, finally ignited the divine fire, were able to step into the realm of gods, and enjoy endless respect and admiration.
But as they entered old age, the divine fire gradually dimmed like burned-out lamp oil until it went out.
Once the divine fire was extinguished, their vitality and blood also declined.
At this moment, if we simply talk about strength, he is not much different from the top mortal masters. However, the gods have a profound foundation after all, and they possess many more means than the masters.
This type of gods, who are in the realm of divine fire, are also called false gods by the world. Their power is limited to their prime years. Once they enter old age, their glory is gone.
But if there is a god who can go against the will of heaven and break through that layer of shackles based on the Divine Fire Realm, and successfully become a true god, then the world will be completely changed.
The transformation from a false god to a true god will not only increase one’s own strength exponentially, but the true god’s divine fire will be indestructible and will only be extinguished by death.
In other words, no matter what stage of life one is in, the true God always stands at the pinnacle of power and possesses endless divine power. It is almost impossible for him to fall into a miserable situation where he is even worse than a false God.
In the eyes of the little red bird and other ferocious beasts, Jiang Xuan is a pseudo-god in his peak state.
Although the eight realms of the lower world are vast and boundless, the limit of the power they can carry is like an insurmountable chasm, and the Divine Fire Realm is the boundary of this limit.
“I am willing to give away all my treasures just to get a glimmer of hope!”
At this moment, the sharp and somewhat trembling voice of the Sky-Swallowing Bird suddenly sounded.
At this moment, its broken wings felt as if pierced by thousands of steel needles, and the severe pain came in waves like a surging tide.
At this critical moment of life and death, it no longer cared about its former dignity and pride as a respected being. Its entire body was trembling slightly with fear and the desire to survive. It lowered its posture extremely low, begging almost humbly.
“Treasures, magical medicines, original treasure bones, supreme magic tools, as long as you can spare my life, I have everything, and I will offer it to you with both hands!”
Its voice was full of desperation and urgency, trying to grasp the last straw in the darkness.
In that huge furnace, the imprisoned Qiongqi was like a volcano about to erupt, with violent emotions constantly surging in his eyes, and the strong murderous intent was like a materialized flame, burning fiercely.
It howled to the sky, its voice shaking the surroundings, and roared viciously: “What about gods?! In my eyes, you are nothing but lambs to be slaughtered! Today, even if we have to fight head-on, I will bite off a piece of your flesh.”
This Qiongqi is the true king of ferocious beasts. It has frightened countless creatures and even devoured countless people of an ancient country in the past. Wherever it goes, all lives are destroyed.
Now being placed in the oven, the anger and murderous intent in its heart grew stronger, and all it could think about was swallowing up all the people in Shi Village.
From the moment it was suppressed, it never stopped struggling, its body constantly twisting.
Although both are extremely powerful beasts, their personalities and styles of doing things are completely different.
Qiongqi was known for its ferocity and brutality, razing everything it passed to the ground; whereas Tuntianque was known for its cunning and slyness, like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy at any time.
Looking at Zhu Yan again, it was placed quietly in the oven. Although it also longed to live, its mentality was exceptionally calm, as if it had already become indifferent to life and death.
Its condition was critical, and the injuries on its body were the most serious among the four beasts.
This injury was not caused by Jiang Xuan, but was left in the fierce battle between the four beasts for the mountain treasure.
Zhu Yan was born with three heads and six arms, and his fighting ability was incredible. In the process of competing for the mountain treasures, he successfully seized the treasures many times.
But this also attracted a joint siege from the other three.
Moreover, before Shanbao was born, Zhu Yan had a great battle with the little red bird.
Zhu Yan was first severely injured by concentrated fire in the melee, and his serious injuries attracted the other three ferocious beasts to continue targeting him.
Even if he was lucky enough to escape from Jiang Xuan this time, it would be extremely difficult for Zhu Yan to recover completely.
Because of this, Zhu Yan has already let it go. No matter what decision Jiang Xuan makes, he will just leave it to fate and let it do whatever it wants, as if everything in this world has nothing to do with him.
At this point, the three fierce beasts were like lambs to be slaughtered. (End of this chapter)
