Chapter 87

Looking at the dead Kunpeng, Xu Ziyang felt a bit heartache. She looked down at the little Kunpeng in her arms and found that it no longer rejected her. It was pecking at her hand, trying to break free from her hold. Instead, it snuggled tightly in her arms, greedily inhaling her scent.

Turning her head to look at her right arm, she noticed a Kunpeng pattern had appeared on it.

"Is this the Heart of Kunpeng?"

Xu Ziyang immersed her consciousness into it and was immediately stunned. The space inside was enormous. The Heart of Kunpeng was divided into nine independent spaces, each as large as a real Kunpeng. Five of the nine spaces were empty, while the other four contained water-type demon cores. After a moment of thought, Xu Ziyang understood that these were for the little Kunpeng's advancement.

The contents of the other two spaces made Xu Ziyang's head "buzz" and she almost fell off her flying sword. Both spaces were filled with spirit stones. One space contained only medium and high-grade spirit stones, while the other was filled with low-grade spirit stones. The sheer quantity was overwhelming, and Xu Ziyang couldn't even count them all.

Looking at the other five empty spaces, Xu Ziyang couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"Truly a super divine beast, it's so picky about what it stores. It only likes demon cores and spirit stones. Even a couple of magical artifacts or magical tools would have been nice to leave behind!"

Xu Ziyang withdrew her consciousness from the Heart of Kunpeng and realized that her clothes had been torn to shreds by the chaotic spiritual energy in her body, leaving her naked. She quickly scanned the area and, finding no one on the vast snowy field, she put her heart at ease. She took out a new set of clothes from her storage bag and put them on, then began to examine the two giant birds before her.

She was determined to take the phoenix with her, as it was a treasure for cultivators. She flew her sword to the phoenix, and with a thought, the phoenix disappeared, moved by Xu Ziyang into the Heart of Kunpeng, occupying one of the spaces.

Xu Ziyang turned to look at the Kunpeng, feeling a bit troubled. She was reluctant to use the Kunpeng's body, but it was so large that, with her current cultivation, burying it would be a significant task. She also feared that other demon beasts might discover the body and feast on it. After some thought, she decided to store it in the Heart of Kunpeng for now and deal with it later. With another thought, she moved the Kunpeng's body into the Heart of Kunpeng.

She then collected the hundreds of frozen tears the Kunpeng had shed, putting them in a bottle and storing them in the Heart of Kunpeng. She looked down at the little Kunpeng snuggling in her arms, affectionately stroking its fluffy white fur. The little Kunpeng, feeling her touch, chirped contentedly and snuggled closer, closing its eyes and falling asleep.

Xu Ziyang couldn't help but smile, surprised that such a massive Kunpeng could be so small when born. She gently stroked the little Kunpeng and said softly:

"Little Kunpeng, do you know? You'll be with me from now on! I'll give you a name, how about... how about..."

Looking at the little Kunpeng's white, fluffy fur, she gently tapped its head and said with a light laugh:

"I'll call you Little White!"

The little Kunpeng chirped twice, seemingly agreeing, and snuggled closer to Xu Ziyang. Xu Ziyang's face showed a maternal expression as she stroked the little Kunpeng a few more times. She then moved it into an empty space in the Heart of Kunpeng. After some thought, she took a few water-type demon cores from the space filled with them and placed them in the little Kunpeng's space. Seeing the little Kunpeng lying comfortably on the demon cores, she withdrew her consciousness from the Heart of Kunpeng.

Flying in the air, she looked down at the chaotic forest below and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. The power of a super divine beast was truly astonishing.

Feeling sticky, she followed the sound of water and found a hot spring. She took off her clothes and jumped in, washing herself thoroughly and changing into a new set of clothes, feeling refreshed.

Standing by the hot spring, she stretched lazily, feeling a surge of energy from within. She looked up at the sky, where the night was slowly dissipating like a fisherman's net, the world turning a hazy gray. The sun had not yet risen, but the horizon was beginning to lighten.

In the depths of the Cangmang Mountains, the cold wind blew, and the sun had not yet risen. Although there was some light, it was not very clear. The snow-covered forest was a vast expanse of white, making it impossible to determine direction.

Xu Ziyang sat on a rock, quietly waiting for the sun to rise. In less than a quarter of an hour, the sun rose from the distant horizon, its brilliant colors moving her deeply.

After the sunrise, she determined her direction and flew toward the capital city.

At this point, Xu Ziyang was in the heart of the Cangmang Mountains, whose vastness no one had ever fully explored. First, the mountains were indeed vast, stretching endlessly. Second, the closer one got to the heart of the Cangmang Mountains, the higher the rank of the demon beasts, making it a forbidden area for humans.

Xu Ziyang flew as high as possible, far from the forest below. She could sense the terrifying aura from the forest, which made her feel insignificant and deeply shaken. She knew this was due to the difference in rank, and if her cultivation were to be obstructed by the demon beasts below, she would likely meet her end.

When she had a sudden enlightenment and merged with the heavens and earth, her speed was incomparable to flying on a sword, perhaps many times faster.

After flying for half a day, she was still in the Cangmang Mountains. The terrifying aura from the forest below gradually weakened, and Xu Ziyang knew that the rank of the demon beasts was decreasing, indicating that she had flown out of the central area of the Cangmang Mountains.

Looking down, she saw a range of mountains, a vast, silver world covered in snow. The dark clouds in the sky finally dissipated, and the golden sunlight burst forth, reflecting off the snow in a dazzling display.

Xu Ziyang had been flying all morning and had not eaten since the night before. Her stomach was growling with hunger. However, sensing that the aura of the demon beasts below was still strong, she endured the hunger and flew for nearly two hours. By dusk, she finally felt that the aura of the demon beasts below was not as terrifying, and she descended in a sheltered valley.

Xu Ziyang did not dare to go hunting but instead cut a piece of phoenix meat from the Heart of Kunpeng, cleaned it in a stream, and gathered some dry wood to start a fire. She skewered the phoenix meat on a branch and placed it over the fire to roast.

"Phoenix meat! I've never eaten it before! Probably very few people in this world have had the chance to taste it!"

Xu Ziyang smacked her lips, her eyes gleaming as she stared at the phoenix meat roasting over the fire. She inhaled deeply, the aroma of the phoenix meat filling her lungs, making her feel refreshed and comfortable.

She kept turning the phoenix meat over the fire until it was finally cooked. Just as she was about to cut a piece with her sword to eat, she was startled to see a figure suddenly appear before her. Looking up, she saw a one-armed man with a scarred face staring at her intently...
