Chapter 111 The King of Birds
Everyone was stunned by this scene; no one expected that Tao Tao could find a way out by finding another way.
However, as a result, the pagoda birds stopped attacking others and turned around to surround Tao Tao. It seems that these pagoda birds will prioritize rescuing their leader.
"Let's go!" Seeing an opportunity, Lin Zifan threw down these words and ran away. Who wants to die if they can live? Anyway, Tao Tao had carved out a path to survival for them, so why not take advantage of it?
Seeing how fast he was running away, the insect-taming woman threw out a brocade rope to bind him, and coldly mocked, "Someone risked their life to save you, and what do you do? You are not grateful at all and only know how to run away. It was a waste of your life to save you."
Having finally gotten a chance to escape, Lin Zifan was caught by the insect-taming woman. Enraged, he roared, "Are you crazy? If you want to die here, I won't stop you, but don't interfere with me!"
"Of course I don't want to die here, but I can't stand seeing some people clinging to life out of fear of death."
"They're all insane! They're all insane!"
Lin Zifan had no chance of breaking free. He was furious, his face turning ashen. He knew the Insect-Controlling Woman had a bad temper, and even begging wouldn't help. The problem was, in this life-or-death moment, she actually wanted to stay and die—that was just unbelievable.
Stared at by dozens of cold gazes, Tao Tao felt a chill run down her spine. She had no way out now. If she let go, she would be devoured by a flock of floating birds. The only way was to keep absorbing the essence and blood of this floating bird, so that she could at least die a full-bodied ghost.
"Chirp!" The Floating Bird, whose essence blood had been drained by her, let out another sharp cry. The level eight demon beast was helpless against being held by a small beast, and it was naturally furious. So it immediately ordered all the Floating Birds to continue attacking, determined to wear Tao Tao down.
"Oh no, they're back again!" Lin Zifan shouted as he saw the floating birds turn around and point directly at them. The insect-taming woman saw this and immediately summoned her defensive magic weapon. She pulled Lin Zifan to her side and said with a light laugh, "Young Master Lin, you're probably going to die with me."
Lin Zifan roared, "Who wants to die with you? I could have escaped!"
"That's not necessarily true." The insect-taming woman smiled sweetly. Even in such a crisis, she still had the nerve to tease Lin Zifan, which left Lin Zifan speechless.
Seeing that all the Floating Birds had turned around, Tao Tao increased his efforts again. His essence blood was being sucked away, and even the True Dragon Ancestor was helpless, let alone the Floating Birds. At this moment, his body was already weak and his wings could hardly flap. He almost fell down, but fortunately, a group of Floating Birds returned and caught him.
But Tao Tao accidentally let go, instantly becoming the target of everyone's hatred. All the floating birds glared at Tao Tao and pounced on her, intending to tear her to pieces.
"It seems this is her fate. Why do you have to go and die with her?" Lin Zifan sneered. He never thought Tao Tao could survive. Those were a group of high-level demon beasts.
This time, the insect-taming woman also sensed the danger. She released Lin Zifan and even planned to escape. So she picked up her junior sister from the ground and took a step forward. Seeing this, Lin Zifan was too lazy to say anything more and followed. Only Qin Xiyu and Si Xiaoxiao lay on the ground, watching in pain, but there was nothing they could do.
A flock of Soul-Snatching Floating Pagoda Birds approached, and Tao Tao knew he was doomed and had already given up. But just as they were about to attack, a bright light suddenly shone above Tao Tao's head, and a clear phoenix cry resounded through the sky. The light transformed into a colorful phoenix that flapped its wings and flew away, instantly scattering the attacking Soul-Snatching Floating Pagoda Birds.
The phoenix is the king of all birds, and even the Soul-Stealing Floating Pagoda bird has to bow down in worship before it, so how could it dare to act presumptuously?
In an instant, all the pagoda birds scattered, keeping their distance from Tao Tao, and obediently lowered their proud heads, not daring to take another step forward.
Tao Tao looked at the Soul-Stealing Floating Birds with a puzzled expression. She transformed into human form and stood in the air. She touched her hair and realized that it was the phoenix feather that Bai Yan had given her that had worked. She remembered that Bai Yan had plucked it from Lin Yuan's body. She never expected that it would save her life.
However, it was just a feather after all, and Tao Tao didn't know how long it could deter people. So she thought about escaping as soon as possible. But before she ran away, she glanced at the twin trees not far away and, as if possessed, darted over and quickly picked a fruit.
This time, she didn't put it directly into her mouth. The Bodhi fruit contains profound spiritual power, and it needs to be refined immediately after being eaten. She didn't have the time for that now, so she had to put it away first and deal with it later.
But it was because of her action that the Floating Birds, which had just dispersed, became restless again. They were placed here to guard the Twin Trees of Bodhi, so how could they allow anyone to pick their fruit?
Instantly, they let out a scream and quickly gathered into a circle. At the center of the circle, a faint spatial fluctuation appeared. At that moment, the entire space began to move, as if it were about to collapse.
The passage below seemed to be shattered by a powerful force. As the insect-taming girl and the others were fleeing towards the other side, the passage collapsed, and they fell down without realizing it. Qin Xiyu and Si Xiaoxiao naturally did not escape either.
Seeing that things were going badly, Tao Tao quickly chased after her. She was fast and arrived in front of Qin Xiyu in an instant. She grabbed her and was about to leave when she saw Si Xiaoxiao falling down. She simply patted the pet bag and put her in.
Just after they finished doing these things, a huge black hole appeared below them. The space inside was distorted, and they didn't know what would happen if they fell in. Tao Tao wanted to escape, but the Soul-Snatching Floating Bird was tracking her from above. She couldn't care less about anything else and could only turn around and rush towards the black hole.
It's better to fall into an unknown place than to be devoured by the pagoda bird.
On the other side, Bai Yan and his group had already reached the top of the cliff, where they could see the Purple Blazing Kite up close.
Although this Purple Blazing Kite was a fledgling, it was difficult to tame. No matter how the Ye family attacked it, it was useless. Instead, they were almost engulfed by the Purple Blazing Kite's raging flames.
Purple flames erupted from the Purple Blazing Kite's body as it flapped its wings incessantly. The surrounding area was already hot, and the rising flames caused the temperature to rise even higher, gradually causing intense flames to appear on the ground, making it difficult for people to stand.
"This is the Purple Blazing Kite? Seeing is believing." Xuan Yuanmingyue couldn't help but admire it upon seeing the Purple Blazing Kite. Ye Lan, standing to the side, said indifferently, "Sister Mingyue, you should think about how to deal with it. If we let it continue to release purple flames, not only will we be unable to subdue it, but we may also perish here."
Xuanyuan Mingyue was unimpressed and directly summoned the Azure Sky's Ang, creating a natural barrier that enveloped everyone and kept the flames out. At the same time, she looked at Xuanyuan Ning beside her. Xuanyuan Ning understood and stepped forward, taking out a blue magic artifact called the Rainstorm Cover, which was specially designed to deal with fire-type demonic beasts.
