Chapter 252 Star Fragments, Extreme Speed ​​Monster Bird
A corner of the forest on Evil Calamity Island

The three elders, Gongsun, Shen, and Yun, concealed their auras by enveloping themselves in their magical domains.

Unlike other places where various evil spirits roam and fight, here roams a mutated group of evil spirits.

Their upper bodies resembled dragons and horses, covered in blood-red scales.

Its long tail is as thin as a snake and covered with sharp spikes.

Its legs are thick and powerful, and are also covered with red scales.

At a glance, you can tell that their bodies are more solid and refined than those of ordinary spirits and evil spirits, as if they have been forged through countless trials.

Indeed, the magnetic field fluctuations in this area are intense.

As time changes, the magnetic force is constantly adjusted, making it extremely difficult for the weak to survive in such an environment.

The surviving evil spirits have undergone extreme physical tempering, which is the capital that allows this mutated race to run rampant on Evil Island.

The three elders, Gongsun, Shen, and Yun, came here not for the same reason as Li Wushou—to consume the flesh and blood of evil spirits.

They came for the fragments of stars in the vicinity!

Because of the mysterious magnetic properties of star fragments, evil spirits with power far exceeding that of ordinary beings often gather at the places where star fragments fall.

These evil spirits live either alone or in groups, and so on.

They had clearly encountered a gregarious species. At this moment, the three of them stared intently at the largest evil spirit in the group, a Golden Core level evil spirit.

The other party lay prostrate on a black rock, enjoying the flesh and blood offerings presented by the tribe during their hunt.

"The black rock beneath it should contain fragments of the star!"

After concentrating for a long time, Elder Gongsun came to a conclusion and transmitted his thoughts to Elders Shen and Yun through his divine soul.

Elder Shen nodded, and Elder Yun pondered for a moment before replying:

"In that case, let's finish this quickly. Let's kill that evil spirit together, collect the star fragments, and then leave without getting entangled!"

The two agreed, and then, controlling their magical domains, they silently separated themselves, and the three approached the largest evil spirit from different directions.

Once the three had settled into their positions, they moved simultaneously without needing any commands.

Elder Gongsun's back writhed violently, and his neck bone suddenly pierced through the flesh, growing rapidly like a seedling breaking through the soil, and in the blink of an eye, a five-colored flower bloomed on his head.

The five-colored flower has five petals, four of which are real and one is illusory. On each petal grows a woman's face.

They were beautiful and had excellent manners, and their faces were beaming with smiles.

The moment it bloomed, Elder Gongsun shouted, "Five Elements Imprisonment!"

The violently fluctuating magnetic force around them suddenly stopped, freezing both the evil spirits that were being offered sacrifices and the evil spirit leader who was lying down enjoying himself in place.

At the same time, a sharp sword aura suddenly rose from Elder Shen's body, and the murderous aura seemed to shatter the heavens and earth.

The woodland beneath his feet was instantly carved into ravines, and the trees beside him snapped horizontally.

Even some evil spirits that were relatively close to him had their scales torn off instantly, bleeding profusely, as if they had been slowly tortured.

A golden light flashed between his brows, and a golden round pill flew out, instantly transforming into a long sword that rushed straight towards the largest evil spirit leader.

Despite their physical bodies being far beyond the norm, the minor evil spirits along the way were still cut into countless pieces like tofu.

With a flash of sword light, it pierced directly into the body of the evil leader.

The look of terror in his eyes dimmed instantly. Elder Shen flicked his flying sword, and a round, red pill was picked up and taken back with him.

Elder Yun stood still, and upon seeing this, slowly raised his hand. A black cloud quietly gathered above the corpse of the evil leader. Elder Yun made a grasping motion in mid-air, and the black cloud transformed into a large hand that grabbed at the black stone.

The black stone shattered, along with the corpse of the evil leader, which was also blown into several pieces. Then, an irregular, silver, coconut-like fragment flew out from the ground.

This silver fragment contains immense stellar power, constantly radiating magnetic force, attracting or repelling, pulling and causing ripples in the void.

The dark cloud transformed into a palm and covered it, holding it in its palm.

His palm suddenly sank, and the dark clouds seemed about to collapse.

Although the silver fragment was not large, it was extremely heavy. When Elder Yun held it, it was as if he were holding a mountain.

With one step, Elder Yun arrived beneath the dark clouds.

As the dark clouds dispersed, Elder Yun reached out and took the silver fragment, letting out a soft exclamation:
"go!"

Gongsun and Shen quickly enveloped themselves in their own domains and disappeared from the spot along with Elder Yun.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Evil Island, near a sea cliff.

The magnetic distance also fluctuates here.

Li Wushou did not choose to open his entire Heaven and Earth Domain, but only opened a six-zhang Heaven and Earth Domain, which allowed him to control it more freely.

His body merged with the heaven and earth, the law domain, and the surrounding void.

He stood still like a rock, but his gaze was fixed on a flock of strange birds high in the air.

These birds are featherless and ugly, with a pinkish-flesh sheen all over their bodies.

Judging from the fluctuations of their qi and spiritual energy, the two leading ones were only about the same level as the first-level Golden Core cultivators, and didn't seem very strong.

But Li Wushou valued them highly.

Because this bird is too fast!
Following the shadowy figure's guidance, Li Wushou swallowed two Golden Core evil spirits and arrived at the seaside cliff. From afar, he saw these birds flying into the sea to hunt, their lightning-fast speed astonishing even Li Wushou.

He discovered that even if he continuously refined his Yin-Yang core and shifted his body, his opponent could still disappear without a trace the moment he got close.

Moreover, when the opponent flapped its wings, Li Wushou did not notice any special use of spiritual power and blood energy. This extreme speed was actually like a physical talent.

After confirming this, Li Wushou began to plot against the strange bird.

He planned to use food to feed these birds and ingest them into a golden elixir.

If all goes well, once he integrates this incredible physical talent into the Golden Core Dragon Seed, his speed will also increase significantly.

The benefits to oneself are self-evident!
Those you can beat can't escape, and those you can't beat can't be caught.

Whether you fight or run, you always have the upper hand.

So who can threaten me now?

Even Li Wushou's long-held ambition to challenge a Nascent Soul cultivator is no longer out of the question, since his extreme speed makes getting close to a Nascent Soul cultivator no longer a fantasy.

Despite his fluctuating emotions, Li Wushou remained calm and quietly guarded the birds' return route. He had been waiting there for most of the day.

At this moment, the two leading strange birds in this flock are constantly training several newly hatched strange bird chicks.

Their training method is quite simple: constantly sense changes in magnetic force, and then make the cubs flap their wings against the magnetic force to fly.

Only after flapping its wings repeatedly, until it can flap them freely even under the pressure of magnetic force, as fast as lightning, can it be considered qualified.

Each hatchling has only ten chances.

How did Li Wushou know this?
Because he counted, all those who failed to break through the magnetic suppression ten times were swallowed as snacks by the two leading strange birds.

The strange birds are silent, but their behavior proves that only the strong deserve to be their darlings!
Finally, after each of the two strange birds ate two chicks, they led their five chicks back to their nest on the cliff face.

With his gaze fixed on the flock of birds, Li Wushou focused his mind.

Faced with the strange bird's incredible speed, this attack might be Li Wushou's only chance, so he has no choice but to be cautious!
Just as the two leading strange birds flew into his six-zhang Heaven and Earth Domain, the Golden Core Divine Soul, which was suspended high in the sky, suddenly erupted.

Above the realm of heaven and earth, yin and yang are divided, and the Tai Chi symbol operates.

The world seemed to freeze for a moment!
At the same time, two streaks of light flew out from Li Wushou's ribs, one on the left and one on the right, two rib-shaped magic swords piercing straight into the heads of the two strange birds!
Li Wushou's preparations were thorough, but he still underestimated the two birds' incredible speed.

A flash of silver light appeared at the tip of the strange bird's fleshy wing, and with a slight tremor, ripples spread through the solidified void.

With a cry, the two strange birds darted across the Heaven and Earth Law Domain for two zhang, barely dodging Li Wushou's Rib Bone Magic Sword.

With a tremor, the Golden Core activated, and the divine soul manipulated the domain to bind the strange bird once again.

Seeing the opponent's fleshy wings flash silver light again, Li Wushou's heart sank. If this happened, his magic sword would not arrive before the opponent broke free again.

Is he really that difficult to deal with?

Li Wushou didn't seem to have any good solutions for the time being.

At this moment, due to the intense fluctuations in his soul, his golden core also began to tremble and unleash its full power.

A dragon's might suddenly rose from the Golden Core, as if a giant dragon had suddenly descended into the void.

The strange bird, which was flashing silver light and trying to flap its wings, suddenly let out a mournful cry. The silver light on its fleshy wings flashed frequently, and then suddenly went out.

Li Wushou was overjoyed and seized the opportunity to urge his magic sword to instantly pierce the heads of the two strange birds.

The struggle stopped abruptly, and Li Wushou's six-zhang domain suddenly expanded to nine zhang, enveloping the fledglings behind him who had not yet reacted. Blood streaked across the void and pierced through five heads in succession.

By converging his domain, Li Wushou gathered the corpses of the seven strange birds—two large and five small—together.

The golden elixir slowly descended from the void, hovering above the corpse of the strange bird.

The spirit sat upright within, silently chanting "Food is the foundation of heaven," and a force of absorption enveloped the strange bird. Moments later, the strange bird turned into ashes.

However, it will take some time for the Golden Dragon Seed to be digested, and Li Wushou does not yet know what the final result will be.

We can only withdraw it into our bodies and wait for the results.

The vertical lines between his brows opened, and the invisible golden elixir flew back into his body.

Li Wushou took a step and arrived at the strange bird's nest on the sea cliff.

The magnetic field there is even stronger, and according to Elders Lü and Yuwen, there should be a fragment of a star here.

When he devoured the two Golden Core evil spirits earlier, there were also star fragments near their territory.

It seems this is a pattern!
Sure enough, Li Wushou found a large black rock inside the nest's mouth, with a dozen pink bird eggs on top of it.

Li Wushou took the bird eggs back to the Three Immortals Pavilion.

He then smashed the black stone with a punch and picked out a silver fragment the size of a bowl.

These are fragments of a star.

He casually put it into the Yin-Yang diagram; he had already collected three such fragments during his foraging process.

There are still eight days left, I need to speed things up.

With a thought, Li Wushou vanished from the spot.

He would continue searching for prey while waiting for the results of the Golden Elixir's digestion.
