Chapter 1108: 1108

Meng Qi and Long Chen continued hunting . The number of ninth rank Magical Beasts in their ranks rapidly increased, and it only became easier . With dozens of ninth rank Magical Beasts surrounding one, there was nowhere for it to run .

While it was still stunned by the sudden Magical Beasts appearing around it, Meng Qi’s slave mark would descend from the sky . When it started struggling, Long Chen’s bloodline pressure would erupt, making it so frightened that it would piss itself .

In two days, Meng Qi obtained over fifty-nine rank Magical Beasts . Only three of them were flying Magical Beasts, and the rest were ground Magical Beasts . Seven of them had reached the late ninth rank .

If it weren’t for Long Chen’s bloodline pressure, there would have been no way for Meng Qi to subdue such powerful Magical Beasts . In fact, even with the bloodline pressure, they had still resisted so strongly that one of her new housepets had almost been killed in the fight .

But after subduing the first one, the next one became easier . Now, Meng Qi’s housepet army could run rampant here .

However, after two days, Meng Qi’s soul energy was exhausted . Long Chen had her rest a bit as there was no reason to go all-out .

Taking advantage of this resting period, Long Chen and Meng Qi rode an Azure Scale Barbarian Elephant . That was currently her strongest housepet, and they were slowly advancing .

The Azure Scale Barbarian Elephant was a late ninth rank Magical Beast . With its azure scales and long tusks, it could easily crush mountains . To subdue it, Long Chen had been forced to fight it with his Green Dragon Battle Armor .

Now that they were riding it, they easily trampled their way through the territories of other Magical Beasts . Those Magical Beasts would all flee far away upon sensing it .

At the same time as Meng Qi collected housepets, Long Chen also obtained dozens of corpses . Some were rock snakes, scaled alligators, poisonous centipedes, etc . They were some extremely ugly Magical Beasts . They might be powerful, but Meng Qi decided she didn’t want them, so they were tossed into the primal chaos space .

The Iron Spruce Oaks had already grown to nine thousand meters . He sensed that their limit would be twelve thousand meters, but the amount of life energy they could offer him already made him much more confident .

“What are you thinking of, Long Chen?” asked Meng Qi upon seeing him looking around . Even his Spiritual Strength was spread far into the distance .

“I want to see if I can find a tenth rank Magical Beast,” said Long Chen .

“Have you gone mad? Even if a tenth rank Magical Beast didn’t resist, with my current power, there’s no way for me to place a slave mark on it!” cried Meng Qi . This thinking was far too crazy and absolutely impossible .

“I wasn’t thinking of having you put a slave mark on a tenth rank Magical Beast . But if we run into one of its younglings, we can steal one, hehe…” Long Chen raised his brows at her a few times with an evil smile .

“That’s too dangerous!” said Meng Qi worriedly .

“Wealth exists in danger . And I was just thinking of trying it . It’s hard to say if we can even encounter a tenth rank Magical Beast,” said Long Chen .

“What nonsense, do you think I’m as easy to trick as Wan-er? The fact that we can’t sense any Magical Beasts in this region means we’ve already entered the large territory of a tenth rank Magical Beast,” said Meng Qi .

Long Chen had forgotten that Meng Qi was a Beast Tamer . She was clearer on the traits of Magical Beasts than anyone else .

“We’re just taking a look . Just a look,” said Long Chen .

Meng Qi sighed helplessly . Long Chen’s curiosity was too strong, and he never went back on things he had decided . She could only let him have his way .

“I see it!”

Meng Qi and Long Chen carefully retracted their auras like thieves . Looking down from a large mountain, they saw a huge lake .

At the center of this huge lake was a bird nest made from countless withered trees . Looking from a distance, it was like its own island .

“Heavens, there really are eggs!” exclaimed Meng Qi . She could see two house-sized eggs in the nest . “This luck is heaven-defying!”

Long Chen couldn’t help but mutter to himself that it was only because he was with her . If he had been by himself, let alone finding an egg, he wouldn’t even find a single hair or feather .

He found that his bad luck was overflowing, but it didn’t seem to affect others . If he brought someone else along, his luck wouldn’t be so bad .

“What should we do? They’re out completely in the open . There’s no way for us to sneak our way there . Furthermore, Magical Beasts wouldn’t possibly leave two of their eggs exposed like this . That means the parents are going to return quickly, and if we encounter them…” Meng Qi was worried . There had been no ninth rank Magical Beasts that had dared to intrude in the area around here . That meant the master of this place had to be a tenth rank Magical Beast .

But if they could obtain two eggs of a tenth rank Magical Beast and then incubate them… Even someone as calm as Meng Qi felt her heart pounding .

“Let’s risk it . We’ll charge over, grab them, and run . ”

Long Chen wasn’t able to think of any plan . The only thing to do was gamble . In any case, Meng Qi was here, so his bad luck shouldn’t cause anything . It was all up to Meng Qi’s luck .

They rushed over to the nest . Long Chen had raised his wariness to the max, and he was ready to summon the Green Dragon Battle Armor at any moment . Even he didn’t dare to challenge a tenth rank Magical Beast .

What surprised the two of them was that they didn’t sense anything even upon reaching the nest . Only once they were in front of the eggs did they sense something shocking .

They were standing in front of one of the eggs . Strange runes that emitted powerful pressure covered the shells, and just standing near it made it hard for them to breathe .

“Meng Qi, quick . Take them,” said Long Chen . Now wasn’t the time to appraise them .

“I… I can’t draw them into my spiritual space,” said Meng Qi, panicked . She was forming hand seals, but the eggs wouldn’t budge .

These eggs had their own life, and they couldn’t be placed in a spatial ring . They had to be placed in a spiritual space .

Long Chen also tried and found he couldn’t draw them into his spiritual space . As for using the primal chaos space, he didn’t dare to try it . What if they did get in, and then the primal chaos bead directly killed them? That would be an absolute waste .

“What should we do?” asked Meng Qi .

Long Chen was also dumbfounded . There was no way for them to carry them while flying . They were huge, and that would be too conspicuous .

“Who knows?”

Meng Qi blankly looked at Long Chen . Suddenly, Long Chen also looked at her with shock .

“Who said that?” Meng Qi and Long Chen’s hair stood on end . That voice hadn’t come from either of them .

“Me . ”

Long Chen and Meng Qi stiffened and then slowly turned around . They saw a fist-sized little bird standing on a dried-up branch, looking at them .

It was small, but it gave off a feeling like a divine steed . Its tail had multicolored feathers that were very beautiful, but there was no pressure coming from it, nor did they sense its aura .

“A talking bird? Wow, that was scary . Hey, do you know how we can take away these eggs? If you tell me, I’ll give you something delicious . ” Long Chen took out some eighth tier medicinal ingredient fruit . Those were things all birds loved to eat .

“Long Chen, it…” Meng Qi looked at that beautiful little bird with a hint of terror in her eyes .

“It’s fine, I won’t harm it . If it’s always been around here, it should know some secrets . ” Long Chen didn’t look back to see that terror . He handed the fruit to the bird as he had personally witnessed the principles that money could even make ghosts work .

The little bird didn’t even look at the fruit in Long Chen’s hands . It stared at Long Chen, not saying a word .

“Fine, I see you’re a fellow with status . This is too little? Then how about a thousand? Two thousand…?”

Long Chen was in the midst of haggling, so he didn’t see that Meng Qi was pale as paper . She grabbed him and immediately pulled apart some distance between them and the bird .

“It… it… it’s a legendary Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow . ” Meng Qi’s voice involuntarily trembled .

“What?!”

Long Chen looked back, the fruit in his hands tumbling to the ground . A look of shock and terror also appeared in his eyes .

He didn’t recognize the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow, but he had heard of them . The expressions chasing cloud and lightning, as well as devouring heaven and earth, both came from it .

It was said that the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow was a lost species from the immortal era . It was incredibly powerful, and even amongst tenth rank Magical Beasts, it could be considered an overlord . It was definitely on the same level as the drakes they had witnessed in the Xuantian Dao Sect .

Long Chen’s heart turned cold . Could it be that his bad luck had once more resurfaced? They had actually run into such a terrifying existence . Against other tenth rank Magical Beasts, they would have been able to flee . But running in front of the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow was an absolute joke .

“Cough, senior, this was just a misunderstanding . Yes, it was all a misunderstanding,” said Long Chen .

“Oh? You wanted to steal my children, but it was just a misunderstanding? Then I want to hear what the misunderstanding is,” said the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow . It looked at the two of them, its small mouth opening as it spoke human words .

Long Chen couldn’t believe his own foolishness . He had thought this little bird was like a parrot and simply knew how to speak . He had actually tried to use fruit to bribe it? Long Chen couldn’t believe he was foolish to this extent .

“In truth… we weren’t trying to steal your children . We were just worried that they would get cold all exposed to the air, so we were thinking of bringing them to a place sheltered from the wind and storm . Yes, that’s what was happening . ” Long Chen forced out a smile .

Meng Qi’s head was blank . No one knew better than her about how terrifying the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow was . Hearing Long Chen spout such nonsense, she panicked, but she also couldn’t think of anything .

“A possessor of true dragon blood is actually so shameless? You’ve really lost the face of the dragon race . If the dragon race learned of it, they would definitely kill you,” said the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow coldly .

Long Chen’s heart pounded crazily . This Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow had seen through his dragon blood in an instant . Just how terrifying was it?

“What is your name?” The Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow ignored Long Chen and turned to Meng Qi .
