Chapter 367 Spirit Beast Assists_1
As Lin Tianming gathered his thoughts, the Purple Gold Eagle Clan had already approached not far from the two.
Looking up, there were dozens of eagles. When they spread their wings and flew, their massive bodies almost blotted out the sun, making the already darkened sky turn even darker.
"Chirp... chirp..."
Piercing cries echoed through heaven and earth.
Upon seeing the two people, the group of Purple Gold Eagles immediately dived down, launching fierce attacks.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming's face darkened and he couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Hmph... You flock of ragged birds would have been fine if you'd just flown away. How dare you actively seek trouble!"
"You're simply courting death!"
After Lin Tianming coldly uttered these words, he formed a Law Decree with his hand and slashed out a multitude of Sword Qi that shot out fiercely.
On the other side, Hu Yuan, who was initially somewhat afraid upon seeing the Purple Gold Eagle Clan, soon had his expression replaced by excitement.
Seeing so many Purple Gold Eagles appear, he was immensely eager as he did not have a flight-capable Spirit Beast of his own.
For many years, he had wanted to tame a flying Spiritual Bird to cultivate, but since flying Spiritual Birds were rare, Second Order ones with higher intelligence were not easy to tame, and First Order ones required too much time and resources to raise.
Thus, he had never encountered a particularly suitable opportunity.
However, there were quite a few Purple Gold Eagles here, and with both First and Second Order present, the choices and chances increased, significantly boosting the probability of successfully taming one.
Not only that, the talent and potential of the Purple Gold Eagles were quite good. With proper cultivation, they could possibly break through to Third Order. They could be used for travel, which had many purposes.
Now that such an opportunity had arisen, the long-covetous Hu Yuan naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Realizing this, Hu Yuan no longer hesitated and likewise unleashed a barrage of attacks, madly striking at the Purple Gold Eagles that were swooping towards them.
As Lin Tianming and his companion took action in succession, Sword Qi whipped violently around the mountain peak.
Not only that, but dozens of Purple Gold Eagles also flapped their wings furiously and spat out fireballs that rained down on the two of them.
This fireball attack was something Lin Tianming was very familiar with.
Years ago, when he first tamed a Purple Gold Eagle, he had also experienced it.
But back then, the Purple Gold Eagle was only at the First Order Middle Stage, still in its juvenile phase, and the destructiveness of its fireballs was not great.
But here, there were dozens of Purple Gold Eagles. The First Order ones could be ignored, but there were nearly twenty Second Order eagles as well. Their combined fireballs were tremendous in number, with terrifying temperatures on their surfaces and astonishing power within.
As Lin Tianming and his partner made their moves, a mass of Sword Qi and talisman paper attacks collided with the sky-full of fireballs.
"Boom... boom..."
Explosion after explosion resounded without end.
For a moment, the top of the mountain was a dazzle of Gang Wind and fire splashes, as brilliant as stars in the night.
Not only that, the powerful shockwaves made the ground tremble.
When the firelight dissipated, the land returned to a brief tranquility.
At this time, looking around, several First Order Purple Gold Eagles had failed to evade in time and were struck by the powerful Sword Qi. They fell from the sky, their bodies smashing into the ground and creating deep pits.
With this casual strike, Lin Tianming and his companion had killed a few First Order Purple Gold Eagles and injured two at the Second Order Initial Stage, but there were no other casualties.
As the probing strike ended, this result was clearly unsatisfactory to them.
However, upon further thought, given the talent and potential of the Purple Gold Eagles, their strength was bound to be more formidable than the Red Flame Beasts at the same rank.
In addition, as flying Demonic Beasts, speed was their pride. Attacking them was not as easy as it seemed.
Previously, when they battled the Flaming Beast Clan, they had faced several Second Order Late Phase beasts and more than a dozen at Second Order Medium and Initial Stages.
Compared to this Purple Gold Eagle Clan, the Flaming Beast Clan was not much weaker.
Yet, at that time, they had emerged completely victorious, slaughtering all the Red Flame Beasts without sustaining much injury.
It could be said that the victory in that battle was relatively easy.
However, now that the probing strike had ended, the Purple Gold Eagles' losses were negligible, and their combat power had not diminished significantly.
By that count, this Purple Gold Eagle Clan was proving to be much more troublesome than the Flaming Beast Clan.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming and his companion's brows tightened, and their faces showed a solemn expression.
Clearly, they had underestimated the overall strength of this Purple Gold Eagle Clan.
But the two did not panic, they were also well aware that though the overall strength of this Purple Gold Eagle Clan was great, their combined force was not without the potential for victory.
Even if they couldn't defeat the Purple Gold Eagle Clan, escaping them would definitely not be easy.
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Tianming said to Hu Yuan, who was not far from him, "Daoist Hu, you've seen the strength of these Purple Gold Eagles, we mustn't underestimate them; they're very fast, and escaping won't be easy!"
"Looks like we must give it our all this time!"
Hearing this, Hu Yuan nodded. As a Loose Cultivator who had cultivated to his current realm, he had certainly experienced many crises.
He knew very well that escaping from the Purple Gold Eagle Clan would be much harder than from the beast clans like the Flaming Beast Clan.
After all, with the Purple Gold Eagles' speed, they would likely be caught before they could get far.
By that time, they would still have to fight desperately.
