Chapter 612: Chapter 612: The Mighty Giant Bird

"Ding! Side quest triggered—Li’s Despair! Quest details: The Green Fox King is attacking Dragon Island, and Li desperately hopes the host will come to the rescue. If the host successfully rescues the Sea Dragon Clan of the Southernmost Sea, a chance to summon God and Demon will be granted, along with a random lottery draw!"

Qin Jun, who was cultivating, was interrupted by the system’s prompt and opened his eyes in shock. He instantly teleported outside the house.

The system’s tasks were always based on someone else’s emotions towards Qin Jun, or Qin Jun’s own feelings, like the hatred of an enemy. Now, Li’s fervent hope for Qin Jun’s appearance had triggered the quest.

"Yuanba, take me to Dragon Island!"

Qin Jun called out. The Giant Bird’s speed was faster than Sun Wukong’s.

Upon his declaration, the entire magical ship was in an uproar as everyone looked at each other, puzzled about what had happened to make Qin Jun so anxious.

Li Yuanba, who was at the lookout tower, immediately appeared beside Qin Jun and grabbed his shoulder with one hand. The next second, they both vanished from the spot.

"What happened?"

Liu Ruolai stepped out of her room and asked in shock. Qin Jun’s loud shout had startled her, making her think that formidable enemies were attacking.

Chang’e looked towards the horizon and muttered, "The great battle has begun."

Sun Wukong scratched his head, then leaped up from the deck and, with a bound onto the Somersault Cloud, disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Han Xin and Zhu Bajie exchanged glances, both with wry smiles on their faces.

Whether it was Sun Wukong or Li Yuanba, their speed was so incredible that it left them feeling hopeless, naturally unable to catch up.

"Do you feel the battle fluctuations?"

Protected by Li Yuanba’s divine power, Qin Jun felt no discomfort even as they flew at high speed.

Li Yuanba, looking ahead, replied, "I feel it. There’s actually a Mysterious Immortal at the peak of the Scattered Immortal Realm among the demons, completely bullying the weak."

Qin Jun felt a sinking feeling in his heart; no wonder Li had triggered the quest.

Even the combined forces of the Black Dragon King and Iron Qingtian were no match for a Demon King at the peak of the Scattered Immortal Realm’s Mysterious Immortal stage.

"How much longer?" Qin Jun asked in a deep voice.

The speed of the Giant Bird was renowned in mythology.

And the Kunpeng Giant Bird, with a single flap of its wings, could travel ninety thousand miles. Sun Wukong was formidable too, a somersault carrying him eighty-one thousand miles, though he could not flip over Tathāgata’s divine power in the palm of his hand.

"Soon!"

Li Yuanba replied quickly, an excited smile flashing across his face.

Meanwhile, above Dragon Island,

Iron Qingtian struggled fiercely, but to no avail as the Blood Demon King’s right hand maintained its position, piercing through his chest, rendering him unable to move.

"My pair of blood hands will suck dry all your magic power until your life force is completely drained. Painful, isn’t it? Watching the cultivation you’ve accumulated over ten thousand years be used by me, you should die with your eyes wide open," the Blood Demon King sneered with a brutal smile, even licking the corners of his mouth, chilling to the bone.

Rip—

Elsewhere, the Black Dragon King had a hundred-meter long strip of dragon skin torn off by the Green Fox King. Black dragon scales scattered on the ground, the shocking sight of flesh exposed to the sunlight almost causing Li to faint.

The Black Dragon King maintained his dignity, not screaming in pain, but he was still powerless to resist.

The Green Fox King, standing on the Black Dragon King, seemed insignificant in size compared to the dragon, but he kept the Black Dragon King pinned down, rendering him completely unable to turn over.

"Hmph! If it were not for the sake of the Dragon Emperor’s face, I would have exterminated your Dragon Clan long ago!"

The Green Fox King looked down at the Black Dragon King with a cold sneer, saying, "Now that the Dragon Emperor has gotten himself in trouble by offending the Nether King Palace, he won’t be coming back. You have a choice, either pledge allegiance to me or die!"

The Green Fox King was keen on recruiting the Black Dragon King, a Mysterious Immortal of the Scattered Immortal Realm, considering the strength of the Dragon Clan. If he could subjugate them, his power would grow even stronger.

Although he served the Demon Ancestor, the ancestor had not given him any power, only taught him how to become stronger.

"Just kill me!" the Black Dragon King said in a deep voice, full of pain. The agony of being skinned was something ordinary people couldn’t comprehend.

The Green Fox King’s brow furrowed, and he lifted his right hand with immediate intent.

The other party didn’t know how to appreciate kindness, so he certainly wouldn’t show mercy!

Whoosh——

Just then, a whooshing sound came through the air as a golden hammer streaked across the sky at an extremely fast speed. The Green Fox King didn’t even have time to react before he was struck squarely in the chest. The sound of bones breaking was piercingly clear, followed by a spray of blood as he was sent flying.

On his trajectory, he crashed into demon beasts and dragons one after another, stirring up two rows of terrifying waves tens of feet high along the sea surface until he vanished on the horizon.

This scene brought silence to the entire battlefield.

Even the Blood Demon King frowned and looked over, seeing a streak of golden light approaching at a shocking speed.

It was none other than Qin Jun and Li Yuanba!

"Dare to harm my Dragon Clan, you’re seeking death!"

Qin Jun’s furious shout echoed over the sea surface, causing Li, who was slumped on the head of a dragon, to widen her eyes as tears flowed down her cheeks.

The tears she shed before were out of despair, but now they were of surprise and excitement.

Qin Jun suddenly appeared in the sky, while that golden light charged toward the Blood Demon King.

To the shock of the Blood Demon King, he hurriedly kicked away the iron Qingtian in his hand. Just as he was about to dodge, a ferocious and gaunt face appeared before him – it was Li Yuanba. In his left hand, he raised a Giant Bird God Hammer as big as a water jar that made the Blood Demon King feel as if the sky had darkened above him.

Vaguely, the Blood Demon King saw the lips of Li Yuanba move as if uttering a single word.

Die!

"Boom——"

Li Yuanba hammered down on the Blood Demon King’s head, flesh splattered, even mixed with brain matter of green and white.

As strong as the Blood Demon King was, fully cultivated in the Mysterious Immortal Realm, he was directly smashed to pieces by Li Yuanba, deprived of a whole corpse!

His Primordial Spirit didn’t even have the chance to escape.

"Capture the Green Fox King alive, I want a living witness!"

Qin Jun, while flying towards Li, commanded loudly. He was filled with a murderous intent towards the Green Fox King and naturally wouldn’t allow him to die so simply.

The Demon Clan’s army was stunned, the Dragon Clan was also dazed, and the cultivators brought by Qingtian were as if petrified.

The once-nearly Invincible Blood Demon King had died just like that?

And he was killed by sheer brute force crushing his physical body?

Hisss——

Soon, sounds of sharp intakes of breath rose and fell in succession.

The Black Dragon King, lying on the ground, burst with joy and disbelief in his eyes. Had the tide of battle turned so quickly?

Qingtian, sprawled on the beach, struggled to lift his head and saw the figure of Qin Jun, his eyes brimming with excitement.

It was indeed his master!

In his heart, any strong foe would fall at Qin Jun’s feet, even if Qin Jun’s cultivation was low at the moment, he could still make the Blood Demon King meet a miserable end.

How long had Qin Jun been there?

Probably not even the time it takes to take a breath, and the Blood Demon King had died...

Qingtian hadn’t even gotten a clear look at Li Yuanba’s figure; his heart was stirred by a monstrous wave, just how strong was the opponent?

"Are you alright?"

Qin Jun approached Li and took the still-stunned Li into his arms, whispering softly in her ear with a smile, "Don’t be afraid, your Brother Qin Jun is here."

Li didn’t cry out loud but buried her face in Qin Jun’s chest and whispered, "I know, I knew you would come."

Meanwhile, Li Yuanba flew over, holding the blood-covered Green Fox King.
