Chapter 22 (1/2)

Mo Xiaobai raised his sword to chop the bluestone. Loud clangs were heard.

After a few minutes…

So it wasn’t in the bluestone?

Mo Xiaobai frowned slightly. He looked at the red light above the bluestone.

At this moment, Mo Xiaobai noticed that the red lines of light this time were slightly different from the red lines of light he saw when he found the purple-root plant.

When he found the purple-root plant, the red light went deep into the ground until it touched the purple-root plant.

Yet now, the red lines of lights were hovering in mid-air. They didn’t go right into the bluestone.

What was going on?

Mo Xiaobai raised his eyebrows in confusion.

There was nothing in the air. Mo Xiaobai had already touched the air, so he was certain that there weren’t any hollow treasures there.

Hence, the question.

Since it wasn’t in the air and wasn’t in the bluestone, what did these red lines of lights represent?

When Mo Xiaobai was contemplating, the sky started to get darker and darker. He looked at the remnants of golden sunlight left on the horizon and hesitated.

Maybe he should go back and come again tomorrow?

If not, it would be dangerous at night.

“Screech!”

Just as Mo Xiaobai was planning to leave, the shrill cry of a bird came from the depth of the mountains.

Mo Xiaobai looked up immediately in the direction of the screech. In the golden sky, a huge figure was flying towards him from the mountains far away.

Mo Xiaobai tensed up. He held his sword tightly and looked at the shadow with vigilance.

What was that?

As the shadow got near, Mo Xiaobai finally saw what it was.

He was shocked and in disbelief.

It was a grayish-black eagle with a wingspan of more than two meters.

Graystone eagle!

The elite grade magical beast of graystone hill. It was extremely powerful!

What made Mo Xiaobai even more astounded was that the graystone eagle was holding a graystone wolf in its claws. The graystone wolf wasn’t much smaller than it.

That graystone wolf was different from the graystone wolf Mo Xiaobai had met in the past. There was graystone armor covering its back, forehead, and even limbs.

It was obviously more powerful than a normal graystone wolf.

It was an elite grade graystone wolf!

At this moment, the graystone eagle was holding the graystone wolf tightly with its claws. The graystone wolf’s claws were also stabbed in the graystone eagle’s neck. It was biting the graystone eagle’s thigh with its sharp teeth.

The two powerful elite grade magical beasts seemed to be engaged in a deadly battle.

The graystone eagle struggled and wanted to throw the graystone wolf down. However, the graystone wolf was biting its thigh. If the eagle released its claws, the graystone wolf could pull it down.

Mo Xiaobai noticed that the graystone eagle’s flying posture had already turned abnormal. It was flying aimlessly.

“Screech~!”

The graystone eagle cried once again. Mo Xiaobai could sense the agony in its screech.

As the graystone eagle continued flying nearer and nearer, the strength in its wings got weaker.

At the end, when the graystone eagle flew somewhere above Mo Xiaobai’s head, it started convulsing and stopped flapping its wings. It dropped heavily from the sky.

Boom!

The corpse of the graystone eagle and the graystone wolf landed right in front of Mo Xiaobai, directly on the bluestone that Mo Xiaobai was chopping.

The two magical beasts were already heavily injured, so after falling more than 10 meters from the sky, their bones broke instantly, and they died.

Then, the two magical beasts started shrinking, and green light shone around them.

This meant that exceptional items were going to separate out of their bodies.

Moreover, it was going to be elite grade exceptional items!
