a few days later.

As dawn broke in the east, the first light of day began to appear.

The distant mountains are like dark eyebrows, still veiled in a mysterious mist.

Xu Mingwei, carrying the Ink Dragon Bow, followed Xu Mingxuan and the others into the mountains early in the morning.

Knowing the route well, they quickly traveled for an hour and a half before arriving at the lake not far from the foot of Broken Tooth Peak.

"The nest of the Azure Fire Eagles is somewhere on the cliff face of Broken Tooth Peak, but we don't know the exact location." Xu Mingxuan pointed to the towering cliff face of Broken Tooth Peak.

Xu Mingwei stared intently.

Its eyes possess an extraordinary inner light, capable of piercing through clouds and mist, and observing scenery tens of miles away.

“The distance is too great to see clearly.” Xu Mingwei turned to look at Xu Mingxuan and said calmly, “Even if we could see it, according to what you said before, this eagle is as fast as lightning, and its short-range leaps and turns are incredibly swift. At such a distance, my arrows would probably be easily dodged.”

"Within a short distance, it might be worth a try."

"Then lure it out."

"Oh, what will be used to draw it in?"

Xu Mingxuan smiled without saying a word, and with a flick of his wrist, a blood-red pill appeared in his palm.

"Innate Blood Pill?!" Xu Mingwei was no fool; upon seeing this object, he immediately understood.

“Exactly.” Xu Mingxuan grinned and said, “This pill is made from the flesh and blood of that Crimson Scale Python, along with many medicinal herbs. If you crush it and scatter the powder in the air, the Azure Fire Eagle should not have forgotten it.”

“I will use myself as bait and stand by the lake, while you, brother, hide in the shadows and shoot him when he dives down.”

“That was too impulsive.” Xu Mingwei frowned slightly. “I can’t be completely sure that my arrow speed will hit the target.”

"Don't worry, I'm just missing my life. I'll have someone stand beside me with a shield. If you fail, brother, use the shield to block for a moment, and then we'll immediately jump into the lake."

Xu Mingwei pondered for a moment, then, finding it feasible, nodded slightly in agreement.

"Protect Third Master."

"It is the patriarch." The innate martial artist, holding a steel shield several inches thick, bowed slightly.

Xu Mingwei led the others to hide in the mountains and forests. He stood in the shadows beside a boulder, his breathing barely perceptible, as if he had blended into the surrounding environment.

With bow drawn and arrow nocked, they awaited the moment their prey appeared.

Xu Mingxuan and the innate guards holding shields stood by the lake, and immediately crushed a low-grade innate blood pill.

In an instant, a thick, pungent aura of blood surged forth like a tide, spreading across the surrounding fields, while the mountain winds carried the stench straight up to the clouds.

Deep in the dense forest, a wolf suddenly raised its head and howled, its dark green pupils reflecting the blood-red currents of air.

The giant python coiled on the centuries-old pine tree also flicked its tongue, its scales gleaming with an eerie red light in the sunlight.

All the ferocious beasts within a ten-mile radius raised their heads, drawn by the scent, their eyes filled with greed, as if they had smelled a feast that was a once-in-a-decade event.

Xu Chuan used the essence of demon beasts' flesh and blood, along with medicinal herbs, to refine the product. The White Tiger, being a demon beast, was also greedy, and the other wild animals were even more so.

Broken Tooth Peak cliffs.

Suddenly, a figure in blue flew out from the cliff and hovered in the air.

It was the Azure Fire Eagle that Xu Mingxuan and his group had encountered before.

It was very familiar with the blood aura of the Red Scale Python. Recalling that its body had been stolen, it was filled with rage and immediately flew out of the cave in the cliff.

In a short while, they found Xu Mingxuan by the lake, and the source of his blood energy came from their vicinity.

Its pair of eagle eyes were fixed on Xu Mingxuan and the guards beside him, and it swooped down like a streak of blue lightning.

The guard spotted it first from its reflection in the lake, and immediately looked up, exclaiming, "Third Master, it's here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Mingxuan also looked up.

However, the Azure Fire Eagle moved with lightning speed and was almost overhead in the blink of an eye.

The guards hurriedly raised their steel shields, hoping to offer some protection.

Just as the Azure Fire Eagle's claws pierced the steel shield, a black bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, instantly piercing its chest from the forest.

next moment.

The eagle's mournful cry echoed all around. Then, another arrow pierced its skull, killing it instantly.

Xu Mingxuan and the guard were still shaken.

Just as everyone was relaxing.

Another blue fire eagle appeared in the sky, slightly smaller in size, but equally fierce.

With a flap of its wings, a mournful cry echoed through the sky, and flames ignited on its blue feathers, making it look like a fireball hurtling down.

"Jump!"

Xu Mingxuan and his guards jumped into the lake without hesitation.

The blue fire eagle did not let go and continued to swoop down.

However, Xu Mingwei believed that he was simply blinded by anger.

Even if monsters possess intelligence, how can they possibly be a match for humans, who are born with innate intelligence, when it comes to controlling their emotions?

Three arrows were fired simultaneously, blocking the eagle's route.

Because its blue feathers were as hard as iron, Xu Mingwei aimed at its head and abdomen.

It avoided the head, but its abdomen was pierced, and it was thrown near the blue fire eagle that had been there before.

It turned its head to look at it and let out a mournful cry.

Xu Mingwei showed no pity.

Taking advantage of his weakness and inability to move, as before, they shot an arrow through his head.

Xu Mingxuan and his guards surfaced in the lake, their eyes scanning the sky back and forth until there was no further movement. Only then did they swim to the shore and go ashore.

Xu Mingwei and his group also emerged from the edge of the forest to check on the two blue fire eagles.

"I never expected there to be two demonic beasts. They seemed to be a couple, otherwise they wouldn't have been wailing so mournfully before."

Xu Mingxuan laughed and said, "Brother, I've heard that you once hunted down a pair of tigers, and now you've killed a pair of eagles. Are you deliberately trying to get along with them?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xu Mingwei's face darkened as he saw him making fun of him.

"Just kidding, brother, please don't take offense. But if they really are a couple, do you think their nest might have eaglets or eggs?"

One of the guards said, "Third Master, I have also heard that male eagles frequently go out to hunt prey during this period in order to replenish the female eagle's nutrients."

Xu Mingwei pondered for a moment, then looked up toward the cliffs of Broken Tooth Peak. "If that's the case, we must bring it back. This is a purebred demon beast, not one like Little White that has undergone metamorphosis. Its potential far surpasses that of Little White."

“But that cliff is not something that can be climbed by human strength,” Xu Mingxuan reminded him. “It would be better to wait until Yunnu returns next time.”

Xu Mingwei looked up and stopped him, saying, "If we rely on Yunnu and Father for everything, wouldn't we be nothing but useless people?"

"Don't worry, I'll go up and investigate myself." Xu Mingwei then whispered a few words in Xu Mingxuan's ear.

"I understand, brother. I'll bring you what you need right away."

"Two of you stay behind to follow the patriarch's orders. The rest of you, come back with me."

"Yes, Third Master."

With Xu Mingwei watching over the two Azure Fire Eagles, ordinary wild beasts couldn't bother them at all.

A few hours later.

Xu Mingxuan arrived with a group of men, bringing with him a large quantity of hemp rope.

They carried the corpses of the two Azure Fire Eagles to the foot of Broken Tooth Peak.

Xu Mingwei tied a hemp rope around his body, carried an arrow basket on his back, held arrows in his hands and stuck them into the wall, then used the momentum to climb up.

A sheer cliff thousands of feet high—not an ordinary person could climb it.

Even for Xu Mingwei, who was at the mid-stage of the Grandmaster realm, this was by no means an easy task.

Fortunately, he was born with superhuman strength and had great stamina. He climbed step by step and disappeared into the clouds, where he found a solitary cliff and stone platform.

Xu Mingyuan leaped onto the stone platform, and what came into view was a cave several meters high.
