Chapter 81

In the ancient, wild jungle, a place where fierce beasts once roamed freely, many of these beasts have now fled to deeper parts of the jungle. This is because, recently, there have been too many human cultivators entering the wild jungle. Even fierce beasts know how to avoid danger.

These cultivators who entered the wild jungle were naturally in search of the legendary Fire Kirin. The Fire Kirin is a treasure from head to toe! All major forces want a share of the bounty.

Thus, the wild jungle is now bustling with activity. Lin Feng and Dugu Kuangdao, along with others, entered the wild jungle, heading straight for the Fire Kirin's hiding place.

"Brother Dugu, have you seen the Fire Kirin before?" Lin Feng asked.

"I saw the Fire Kirin from a distance. It stood atop a mountain peak, surrounded by flames, like a sacred fire beast, inviolable and holy," Dugu Kuangdao recalled the scene he saw recently, which left an indelible impression on him.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Such a powerful existence, in the end, has become the target of various forces."

Dugu Kuangdao replied, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Fire Kirin, such a sacred beast, has always been a mysterious existence in legends. It's just that we don't know why such a sacred beast has appeared in our small True Martial Kingdom. Moreover, this sacred beast is weak, possibly severely injured. This is the best chance to kill the Fire Kirin. If the Fire Kirin recovers, even a Yin-Yang realm expert would likely be no match for it."

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Indeed, hunting such an existence is no easy task."

After three days of travel, they finally arrived at the forest where the Fire Kirin was hiding. The temperature here had sharply increased, which was likely related to the Fire Kirin.

"Look, that's the Fire Kirin!" Dugu Kuangdao pointed to a valley. Lin Feng looked and saw a massive beast lying in the valley, surrounded by flames.

The massive body of the beast, like a mountain, gave Lin Feng a strong visual impact.

"Is this the Fire Kirin? It's so huge, like a mountain. Even a Yin-Yang realm expert might not be able to handle such a terrifying existence," Lin Feng marveled.

"If the Fire Kirin were at its peak, one claw could kill a Yin-Yang realm expert. But now, looking at its half-dead state, you can tell that the Fire Kirin probably won't last much longer and has almost no fighting power," Dugu Kuangdao said.

"Indeed," Lin Feng nodded, agreeing with Dugu Kuangdao. The Fire Kirin lay motionless on the ground, possibly due to severe injuries.

Around them, a large number of cultivators had gathered, scattered in various places, observing the Fire Kirin. However, no one made a move rashly. Even though the Fire Kirin was on the verge of death, it was still an ancient fierce beast. The closer it was to death, the more terrifying it became. Ordinary cultivators could not withstand the Fire Kirin's attacks. Moreover, it was unknown whether the Fire Kirin was truly injured or weakened for other reasons.

Naturally, no one would act rashly. Everyone was waiting for the arrival of Yin-Yang realm experts from the ancient forces.

"Whoosh."

In the distance, a vast golden light swept across the sky. In the endless golden light, a man in a golden robe flew over.

"Jin Yuchen."

Someone exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the identity of this powerful figure. His background was extremely noble, a descendant of the famous ancient family, the Jin Family, in the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land. Despite his youth, his cultivation was profound, and his strength could surpass many well-known senior experts.

Jin Yuchen's golden robe fluttered, and his golden hair flowed in the wind, making him exceptionally handsome. He stood in the air, observing the valley without rushing to act.

"Whoosh."

In the distance, another figure arrived. This was a powerful figure shrouded in a black robe, with dark mist swirling around him, clearly a master of the demonic path.

"It's a powerful figure from the Soul Devouring Hall..." someone said, with great apprehension. The Soul Devouring Hall was a notorious demonic force in the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land. Even when the Ten Great Ancient Cities united to attack the Soul Devouring Hall, they failed to destroy it, showing how terrifying the Soul Devouring Hall truly was.

Lin Feng frowned slightly when he saw the powerful figure from the Soul Devouring Hall. Previously, when he entered the wild jungle for training with Murong Xue, they encountered "Yunwen Yunfeng" from the Soul Devouring Hall. Yunwen Yunfeng seemed to be the grandson of an elder in the Soul Devouring Hall, with a very special status.

"The appearance of a sacred beast like the Fire Kirin in a barren land like the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land is truly incomprehensible."

In the distance, a voice came from a man carrying a long sword, resembling a sword immortal.

"Little Sword Demon, Li Baige."

Someone exclaimed in surprise. The identity of the newcomer was not simple. He was an independent cultivator who had inherited the legacy of an ancient powerful figure, rising to prominence and enjoying high prestige in the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land.

In the blink of an eye, three Yin-Yang realm experts had arrived.

Lin Feng said, "What does Li Baige mean by calling the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land a barren land? This place is vast and rich in resources, with countless resources. How can it be a barren land?"

Dugu Kuangdao smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Yang, you don't know. I've heard that beyond the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land, there are ninety-nine other prefectures, overseas worlds, and even immortal islands. Some of these prefectures even have divine beings appearing..."

"Whoosh!"

Lin Feng drew a sharp breath.

Divine beings!

They were high and mighty.

These were mythological stories recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas."

Now, divine beings were actually appearing in other prefectures. In comparison, the Eastern Prefecture of Divine Land indeed fell short.

"The king of beasts, even in death, remains formidable. A dying beast is like a trapped dragon. Although the Fire Kirin's condition looks dire, it won't be easy to deal with. How about we three join forces?" Jin Yuchen said.

The black-robed figure from the Soul Devouring Hall laughed coldly and said, "Fine, let's join forces. We'll kill the Fire Kirin, and we'll discuss the distribution of its treasures afterward."

"Since you both agree, I have no objections," Little Sword Demon Li Baige said.

"Move..."

Jin Yuchen gave a low command. In an instant, a halberd appeared in his hand, and he flew toward the Fire Kirin in the valley.

The black-robed figure from the Soul Devouring Hall held a chain.

Little Sword Demon Li Baige drew his sword and charged at the Fire Kirin with his sword in hand.
