Chapter 1417
"There's … such a strange bird?"
After listening to Cai Zhuoxia's description of the robin, Xiao Hua's original ambition had already turned into a pool of cold water!
First of all, this robin could change its color according to the surrounding environment. This … was absolutely not something an Aura Refining cultivator without divine sense could casually discover!
Not to mention that the robin was only the size of a thumb, and its flight was very fast. Freely shuttling back and forth in this several dozen li mountain range, this kind of difficulty was not much lower than finding a needle in a haystack!
After cupping his hands and bidding farewell to Cai Zhuoxia, Xiao Hua was too lazy to fly and slowly walked down on foot. While breathing in the intoxicating fragrance of the flowers, he secretly calculated. Needless to say, it was really unrealistic for Xiao Hua to catch the robin himself. However, that Huan Hua Sect disciple had clearly said that there would be no casualties. Moreover, whoever could obtain the robin by noon tomorrow would be the winner of the selection!
In other words, Huan Hua Sect didn't care how you obtained the robin!
Xiao Hua didn't have the ability to catch the robin, but he had the ability to snatch it from the hands of others. Apart from those aristocratic family disciples at the ninth and eighth level of Aura Refining, he temporarily didn't have much certainty. As for the other cultivators at the seventh level of Aura Refining and below, as long as Xiao Hua was careful and caught them off guard, he had a seventy to eighty percent certainty!
With a plan in mind, Xiao Hua also became even more unhurried. Being busy first wasn't being busy. Right now, he should give time to those cultivators who could catch the robin and let them do their best. Only then would it be time for Xiao Hua to display his skills.
As for Cai Zhuoxia, after leaving Xiao Hua, she activated her magic power and flew along a faintly discernible path in the forest for a while. Soon after, she suddenly flew up into the air and looked around. At this time, everyone had already disappeared and it was extremely quiet.
Cai Zhuoxia first looked at the peak where Xiao Hua was and said in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I'm really sorry. This kind of opportunity is really … something that I have been looking forward to for a long time. It's not that I don't want to share it with Fellow Daoist, but … the revival of my clan … is all on my shoulders!"
While speaking, Cai Zhuoxia clapped her hands and an old yellow talisman appeared in her hand. She activated her magic power and a small, faintly visible red-crowned crane was formed from the yellow talisman. That red-crowned crane lightly danced in the air, its two faintly discernible wings flapping from time to time!
Cai Zhuoxia's face emitted a happy radiance and she said to herself, "This Spirit Seeking Talisman … although it has been a long time, it can still be used. If I hadn't taken it out on a whim before leaving, wouldn't this trip to Huan Hua Sect's trip to be a failure?"
While speaking, Cai Zhuoxia clapped her right palm on her chest. Immediately, a drop of blood from her heart flew out from her mouth and landed on the red-crowned crane's head. When the red-crowned crane received the blood from Cai Zhuoxia's heart, a bit of cinnabar immediately appeared on its head. The red color of the cinnabar immediately spread to the red-crowned crane's body. Not long after, the entire red-crowned crane was filled with faint traces of blood, and Cai Zhuoxia's face became even paler!
"Quick ~" Cai Zhuoxia recited a spell and tapped the red-crowned crane's head with her hand. The red-crowned crane let out a soft "ga" sound. The sound wasn't loud, but it was very loud in Cai Zhuoxia's ears. The red-crowned crane spread its wings and flew towards a direction halfway up the mountain. Cai Zhuoxia's face was filled with joy. She performed another spell and followed closely behind!
The disciples of aristocratic families were indeed the disciples of aristocratic families. Even a side branch of an aristocratic family like Cai Zhuoxia had tricks that Xiao Hua didn't know about, so there was no need to talk about other people in detail. Looking at Yun Guichong from the Yun family, four people from the Yun family had come, but for some reason, only three people had appeared!
Yun Guichong only said a few words of courtesy to Cai Zhuoxia before he took the two of them into the air. Seeing that many disciples of aristocratic families were flying in different directions, the female disciple curled her lips and said disdainfully, "What a bunch of idiots!"
"Lan 'er ~" Yun Guichong scolded, "I let you come out this time to broaden your horizons. Why are you so talkative?"
"Big brother …" The male disciple also smiled and said, "Sister Lan is right. These disciples don't have the profound cultivation of big brother. Even if they catch the robin, won't they still be big brother's prey?"
"Haha, big brother, even Yunfeng is speaking for me. Am I right?"
Yun Guichong glanced at the two of them and smiled slightly. He said in a low voice, "You only know that our Yun family has tricks up our sleeves. How can we not have others?
These cultivator aristocratic families may not have disciples with higher cultivation than your big brother, but … they all have a foundation. Don't underestimate them! "
"Having a high cultivation is the way of the king!
Who's afraid of that? "
Yun Lan smiled and said, "At worst, big brother can go on a killing spree and kill all 755 disciples of aristocratic families. I'd like to see if I can find the robin!"
"Nonsense. You're bringing disaster to our Yun family!" Yun Guichong looked around and scolded her in a low voice.
"Hehe, I'm just saying. This kind of thing … I know!" Yun Lan pursed her lips and smiled. She looked very charming.
"Big brother, are we … going to use our tricks?" Yun Feng asked.
"Hehe, of course. Our Yun Clan is in an advantageous position right now. We can seize a robin bird at lightning speed. Not only can we reduce the sin of killing, but we can also intimidate the other disciples. Maybe we can even get a second robin bird!" Yun Jiechong said without hesitation.
"Thank you, big brother!" Yun Lan said with a smile.
"Big brother, can't we get three?" Yun Feng was a little unhappy.
"How is that possible?
This second one … might not even be possible! "Before Yun Guichong could say anything, Yun Lan began to lecture Yun Feng.
"I know, Sister Lan!" Yun Feng stuck out his tongue. He was just a teenager.
Yun Lan was very proud. She patted her storage bag and took out a yellow talisman. She handed it to Yun Feng and said with a smile, "Don't flatter me. If there's a second robin, I'll let you have it!
Now, let's hurry up and help big brother get the first robin! "
"Yes, Sister Lan!"
Yun Feng immediately became serious. He patted his hand and took out an old yellow talisman. He calmly placed it in his hand.
Seeing that Yun Lan and Yun Feng were ready, Yun Guichong patted his hand and took out a magic weapon that looked like a spinning top from his storage bag. With a "poof", Yun Guichong spat a mouthful of Life Origin Energy on the spinning top. The spinning top began to spin. Seeing that the spinning top was moving, Yun Lan and Yun Feng did not dare to be negligent. They activated their magic power and injected it into the yellow talisman. The yellow talisman immediately turned into a shiny thin piece. The two of them opened their mouths and swallowed the thin piece!
As soon as the thin piece entered their mouths, their faces gradually turned red, as if they were going to bleed. Then, they looked at each other and bit the tip of their tongues at the same time. A mouthful of blood was spat out and landed on the spinning top.
After the spinning top received the two mouthfuls of blood essence, it suddenly shone brightly. Then, it spun faster and faster. It was almost impossible to see its original appearance.
Seeing the spinning top's brilliance expand and contract, Yun Guichong sighed and said, "My Yun family's Spirit Seeker has been useless for many years. Who would have thought that today, instead of searching for spirit beasts, it would only be used to search for robin!"
Yun Lan's face was pale and he looked a little dispirited. He also sighed and said, "According to the family records, when my Yun family was at its peak, we used this Spirit Seeker to search for spirit beasts protecting the family. This magic weapon requires the blood essence of at least two members of the Yun family's direct bloodline. It consumes a lot of vitality. Today, after testing it, it really lives up to its name. Two cultivators of the fifth level of qi refining like us can't even activate the Spirit Seeker!"
"Poof!"
Yun Guichong also spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The spinning brilliance made a "sizzling" sound like boiling oil being poured into boiling water. The brilliance scattered in all directions and turned into many tiny lights. These lights also spun. After a while, these tiny lights suddenly turned into tiny arrowheads. They suddenly gathered together and turned into a slightly larger arrowhead, pointing in one direction!
"Let's go!"
Seeing this, Yun Guichong's face lit up with joy. He pointed his finger and the arrowhead turned into a ray of brilliance and shot into the distance. Yun Guichong, Yun Lan, and Yun Feng also became spirited. They activated their flying talismans and flew down the mountain!
The Cai family of Luyang did so, the Yun family of Xu Yan did so, and the other families also used their own methods and shot in different directions. Although the disciple of the Huanhua Sect had clearly said that there were only three robin birds here, the direction they were heading in was more than ten.
As for who was right and who was wrong, only they would know!
Throughout the entire mountain, besides Xiao Hua, a fourth level qi refining cultivator, who was strolling leisurely, there was another fourth level qi refining cultivator on the other side of the mountain. He looked about thirteen or fourteen years old and was also sitting on a rock. He coldly looked at the people flying in the air and disappeared. There was not the slightest trace of nervousness on his face. It was as if this selection had nothing to do with him!
As for Cai Zhuoxia, after following the red-crowned crane for a few li, the red-crowned crane gradually slowed down. The flapping of its wings also weakened. When she looked at the red-crowned crane again, it was gradually becoming transparent and was about to disappear!
Seeing this, Cai Zhuoxia felt a little helpless. She clapped her hand again and another drop of blood from her heart flew out and landed on the red-crowned crane's head. The red-crowned crane seemed to have taken a blood replenishing pill. Its wings flapped again and its head shook slightly. Then, it flew down the mountain and into a slightly dark place!
Cai Zhuoxia was secretly delighted. Looking at the situation in the shade, she slapped her storage pouch and took out a few yellow talismans. She was just about to fly down.
But at this moment, a few sounds of something breaking through the air rang out not far away!
When Cai Zhuoxia turned her head, she saw the rogue cultivator Le Chongqi and the disciple of the Cheng family, Cheng Ming, as well as a few other seventh level qi refining cultivators!
"Oh no!"
Cai Zhuoxia's heart turned cold when she saw these people. How could a lone wolf fight against these tigers and wolves?
In a hurry, Cai Zhuoxia was still a little reluctant. She clenched her teeth and fiercely flew into the forest, quickly chasing after the red-crowned crane!
Sure enough, under the dark shade of a tree, a jade-like robin was flapping its small wings and hovering above a withered branch. On that withered branch, there was a jade-like spirit fruit!
Cai Zhuoxia was overjoyed. She didn't care about her figure. She fiercely urged her transcendence energy and flew like a flying sword towards the robin. As she flew, she slapped her storage pouch …
