Chapter 2154 Die together
Venerable White Lotus said, "If they are of the same size, then the golden eagle does have the upper hand! But how can bronze defeat steel?"

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Even if the Golden Eagle were made of straw, it wouldn't necessarily be a match for the Roc! Their true strength lies not in their material, but in the divine power of the incantations that imbue them with soul! No matter how powerful the Roc is, it is merely the divine creature of a great lord, but the Golden Eagle's master is the Zanpu, the greatest master of the entire Qing Tang Tubo!"

Venerable Bailian immediately understood, “Even if the divine power of the runes on the two giant bird statues came from the hands of the Great Wizard, the Great Wizard would still treat them differently according to the status of their owners. The golden eagle, placed in the Tibetan royal palace, can be considered a national treasure, representing the king! The iron roc, on the other hand, can only represent a subject! The king has an innate power to suppress his subjects, so the roc cannot defeat the golden eagle!”

Feng Jiuxiao said, "That's right! The golden eagle is bound by me, so it can't fully exert its power. Now I'm going to untie it, so we'd better stay away from it!"

Bai Lian said, "Understood!" The two colossal birds fought fiercely. Both had skin of copper and bones of iron, and feathers as sharp as knives. Even a slight flap of their giant wings could bring about earth-shattering results, and the area within a hundred feet was a forbidden zone!
The two men slowly retreated.

The golden eagle and the roc stared at each other.

Death stare!

Because they were given souls, the two giant birds also gained consciousness!
The bloodline's inherent killing nature, passed down for millennia, tells them that they are the sole ruler of the entire world, and they will never allow any creature to challenge their dominance!
After thousands of years of evolution, the Roc has become overweight and lost its ability to fly. Therefore, the consciousness implanted in this Iron Roc is also unable to fly on its own. So its greatest offensive weapon is its body of retractable and extendable blade-like feathers! Of course, its most powerful weapons are its beak and claws!
Now that the golden eagle is hovering in mid-air, it is naturally impossible to tear it apart with its steel claws. So the roc shakes its body, and with a series of metallic clanging sounds, its feathers fall off again and gather in the air to form a waterfall of blades, like a long dragon pouncing on the golden eagle!
The golden eagle's sharp eyes grew even colder, and suddenly it opened its mouth wide, whoosh—a fire dragon spewed out, heading straight for the waterfall of blades!
This time, the flames were noticeably brighter and hotter. Feng Jiuxiao even sensed that the "hardness" of the flames was increasing! The flames were somewhat wavy before, but this time they were straight as pillars, making it seem as if the flames had become "harder"!
The waterfall of blades was instantly engulfed in flames! This time, the blade feathers were unable to break through the flames and continue their charge, falling halfway down! The blade feathers actually failed to overcome the raging flames! Venerable White Lotus couldn't help but secretly marvel at the intensity of the flames!
The falling blade feathers were glowing red-hot. When they hit the snow on the ground, they hissed and emitted puffs of white steam. Some of the blade feathers even deformed upon impact with the ground! It turned out that the flames had softened the blade feathers!

After a short while, the blade feathers cooled down again, but they could never be restored to their original state!
The roc dodged the oncoming fire dragon, letting out a long cry. The scattered blade feathers on the ground rose up, gathering again into a waterfall, and flew back towards it. All the blade feathers returned to their positions in an orderly fashion, like birds returning to their nests. However, most of the feathers were bent or curled, causing the feathers to be arranged in a messy manner. The roc looked disheveled, even somewhat comical! For a moment, Venerable White Lotus even thought of a 'drenched chicken'! How pathetic would it be if a proud, beautifully feathered rooster suddenly fell into water, completely soaked, its feathers no longer fluffy?
Enraged, the roc shook its wings once more, and countless blade feathers transformed into a waterfall of blades that attacked the golden eagle!
The golden eagle once again unleashed a fiery dragon attack on the roc!
Now that the roc knew the power of the flames, it naturally dared not confront them head-on and hurriedly dodged!

The golden eagle dared not be careless either, after all, the roc's sharp feathers were sharp enough to cut through gold and jade, and it would be bad if it were to be injured by them. So the two birds, one in the sky and one on the ground, attacked wildly while paying extra attention to defense, and they would leave as soon as they touched the ground!
The roc roamed the ground, rampaging and destroying countless buildings throughout the manor!

The golden eagle's fire dragon added fuel to the fire, turning the already collapsed building into a sea of ​​flames!
The two large birds were locked in a fierce battle, fighting back and forth!
Buildings collapsed with a crash, only to be engulfed in flames again, a cycle that repeated itself as the fire grew ever more intense. Despite the snow falling heavily, flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke billowed straight up into the heavens, clearly visible from a hundred miles away!
Bai Lian noticed that Feng Jiuxiao stood there silently watching the battle. His serious expression made Bai Lian suspect that Feng Jiuxiao was trying to comprehend some new martial art from the fight between the two birds! He knew that Feng Jiuxiao's comprehension was too extraordinary. He could almost grasp the essence of someone's martial arts after just one exchange or even just one observation! He wanted to ask Feng Jiuxiao if he was conceiving a new martial art, but he was afraid of interrupting Feng Jiuxiao's train of thought, so he opened his mouth but then closed it again.

Bai Lian's hesitant expression did not escape Feng Jiuxiao's notice. Feng Jiuxiao smiled and asked, "Does Your Excellency have something to say?"

Venerable White Lotus immediately said, "Oh! I'd like to ask, young master, you're looking so intently, could it be that you're trying to comprehend some kind of cultivation technique?"

"Not bad! The two big birds are quite disciplined in their offense and defense, with sharp attacks and tight defenses. They are indeed commendable."

"If the two divine birds keep fighting like this, it probably won't end anytime soon."

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "How could that be? I made the two of them fight each other simply to use their power to destroy this place. Now that this place is already almost destroyed, keeping them around would only cause trouble!"

Bai Lian said, "Didn't you say that the golden eagle would still be useful for a few more days? Why are you destroying it now?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "I believe Wang Sheng and Duanmu Yan have already eliminated the two major families. By the time we return, the third family will probably be mostly dealt with as well. The Roc and Golden Eagle will then become useless, like chicken bones—tasteless to eat, better to discard them! Especially the Roc, which is different from the Golden Eagle; it's clearly imbued with a bloodthirsty intent! Since its awakening, it has been relentlessly killing until it falls into eternal slumber again! This time, we can't just let it slumber; we must completely destroy it. Otherwise, if it's reawakened by some ambitious individuals in the future, the world will be plunged into bloodshed!"

Bai Lian thought to herself, "The Wei family head is dead, the steward is dead, and even the great wizard is dead. Everyone in this world who knows the incantation to activate the roc is dead. Who can awaken the roc again? Young Master Feng is making a mountain out of a molehill!"

Feng Jiuxiao glanced at him and laughed, "Although the Great Wizard is dead, he still has disciples alive! More than one disciple is alive! As long as one disciple is alive, the Roc has a chance to be resurrected! Not even the slightest possibility is acceptable! A thousand-mile dike can be breached by an ant hole! We cannot give them even the slightest chance!"

Amidst the heavy snowfall, two enormous creatures are engaged in a fierce battle!

The roc had already pierced the golden eagle's entire body with its blade feathers, and seemed to have found a weakness in the eagle's tail! So it continued to attack the golden eagle's tail with a waterfall of blade feathers, the blade feathers flowing like a waterfall, endlessly!

Bai Lian frowned and said, "Has Dapeng found a flaw? But how could the Golden Eagle, which is a seamless whole, have a flaw?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "That's quite possible!" His gaze was profound. "A perfectly integrated piece is also cast! When pouring the mold, there's always a pouring port!"

Bai Lian's eyes lit up: "The golden eagle's injection port is on its rear end!" Feng Jiuxiao's gaze flickered: "That's right! Heaven is fair! Since it was given a soul and life, it must also be given a weakness! To remove the weakness, one must return to a state of death! Only a cold statue will be without flaws!"

Bai Lian thought to herself: So, the Roc must also have a weakness!
The so-called flaw is the most vulnerable weakness, just like the "weak point" or "weak spot" on the body of a master who has practiced the Golden Bell Cover martial arts. One touch and you die!
The dragon's reverse scale—touch it and you die! Either the dragon dies, or the one who touches its scale dies!

The continuous stream of blades pierced the golden eagle's rear end, and soon the "false anus" became a real anus, with a deep hole pierced through it!
Each blade pierces slightly before flying back, followed by another blade immediately following suit, like bees collecting nectar in a continuous flow. This relentless impact deepens the hole in the golden eagle's tail! Repeating this process, it won't be long before the golden eagle's abdominal cavity is pierced!
The Roc that devours the sun has been scorched red by the flames in many places, and some parts have begun to melt and soften. Although it is not very obvious, Bai Lian can see that as long as the golden eagle continues to spew flames, the Roc will be burned into a brand-new iron sooner or later, and it can be deformed with just a light hammer!

At first, the golden eagle thought the roc couldn't fly and that it would have a clear advantage. However, it hadn't expected the roc to possess the deadly "Flying Feathers Forming a Waterfall" technique, allowing it to attack from a distance! Unable to end the battle quickly, the golden eagle became enraged! Fire attacks were simply too slow! It decided to engage in close combat! Although the risk increased, the probability of ending the battle quickly also increased!
The golden eagle suddenly let out a long cry and then swooped down, like a bronze lightning bolt slicing through the sky, rushing straight at the roc. Its speed was breathtaking, and time seemed to freeze at that moment!

The roc was secretly delighted!

The opponent hovered in mid-air. Although I could attack with my blade feathers, I couldn't break through the golden eagle's shell in a short time. My giant beak and sharp claws were several times stronger than my blade feathers. It was a pity that I couldn't fly in the sky to fight it. Otherwise, I would definitely fight the golden eagle in close combat to the death!
Just as he was feeling frustrated, the golden eagle suddenly swooped down from the sky and pounced on him, seemingly wanting to fight him in close combat! This was an unexpected surprise! The roc also let out a long cry, retracted all its sword feathers, and prepared for battle!

The golden eagle charged forward with the force of a mountain crashing down! The roc hurriedly dodged, its right wing sweeping across, stirring up a flurry of snowflakes!

When the golden eagle missed its attack, it immediately swept its left wing back to block the roc's iron wing attack!
With a deafening clang, their wings collided! Sparks flew everywhere! Both birds were jolted back several steps, each step separating them by at least five zhang (approximately 10 meters).
The White Lotus Venerable, who was watching the battle from afar, exclaimed, "Everything in the Wei family manor looks like a child's toy in front of these two giant birds! Even the pavilions and towers seem so small!"

Feng Jiuxiao stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Yes, they are both really too big!"

The two giant birds now resembled two fighting cocks, their eyes glaring fiercely, their sharp beaks pecking at each other like giant knives, and their incredibly sharp claws clawing at each other relentlessly. Every clash produced a deafening roar, sending sparks flying!
At this moment, in the close-quarters battle, the power of the two birds' sharp beaks and claws exploded instantly!

The roc's sharp claws tore off a lot of the golden eagle's wing feathers, while the golden eagle also tore off a lot of the roc's feathers. Both birds looked quite disheveled!
They fought back and forth, neither giving an inch, for hundreds of rounds without a clear winner! Although the golden eagle was endowed with "King-level combat power," it was still relatively small in size, while the roc, although slightly larger, was endowed with "Minister-level combat power." For a short time, they had their gains and losses, and were evenly matched!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "I didn't expect those two to be so troublesome! If they keep fighting like this, it'll be dark before anyone knows who's winning!" He suddenly let out a long roar that echoed through the sky!

The golden eagle was leaping up and grabbing at the roc with both claws when it heard the whistle. It immediately straightened its chest and pulled in its abdomen, and then a flash of fire appeared in its throat!
The roc retreated sharply to avoid the golden eagle's claws. Upon hearing the whistle, its eyes sharpened, and with a flap of its wings, hundreds of blade feathers flew out of its body like locusts leaving their nest, converging in the air to form a waterfall of blades!
Time seemed to stand still!

Suddenly——

With a snap of its giant beak, a fiery dragon pounced on the Roc!

The Roc's sword waterfall had already taken shape, like a long dragon drawing an arc in the air to encircle the golden eagle's tail!

The raging flames, like a fire dragon, struck the Roc squarely in the face. The flames continued to pour out relentlessly, and the Roc frantically tried to dodge, but the golden eagle's fire dragon kept spraying into its face!

Meanwhile, the knife waterfall repeatedly "dug holes" in the tail of the golden eagle, making a constant clanging sound!

The golden eagle relentlessly unleashed blazing flames upon the roc's face. The roc dodged to the east, and the eagle followed suit, spewing flames to the east! The roc dodged to the west, and the flames continued to burn at a relentless high temperature, quickly turning the roc's entire head red, like a freshly forged branding iron! Meanwhile, the large hole in the golden eagle's tail grew ever larger! Although the golden eagle continued to dodge, the roc's waterfall of blades had already locked onto its tail; no matter how it dodged, the waterfall of blades remained consistent, relentlessly digging into one spot!
After several dozen breaths, the roc's head turned completely red and began to soften, showing signs of melting! The golden eagle seemed to sense that victory was in sight and couldn't help but feel smug, suddenly increasing the intensity of the flames! Whoosh—the flames were like a dragon!
The Roc seemed to know its time was coming to an end. Suddenly, it shook its wings, and all the feathers on its body hovered in mid-air, gathered into a waterfall, and charged towards the golden eagle! This time, its speed and power were much greater!
So, just as the Roc's head began to melt, the Golden Eagle's abdomen was finally ripped open by the waterfall of blades! In an instant, golden liquid poured out from the Golden Eagle's tail!

Bai Lian's eyes flashed: "So that's why it can spew flames!"

The liquid from the Golden Clan began to evaporate as soon as it hit the ground, and even the falling snow could not cool it down!

Just then, a streak of fire flew over and instantly ignited the golden liquid under the golden eagle's belly. Whoosh—a flash of fire, then silence, then another flash of fire and a thunderous roar!
The golden eagle was blown to pieces! The golden eagle is finished!

Just then, the roc's head began to melt! It melted and dripped down like a candle!
Incited by Feng Jiuxiao, the two large birds perished together!

Soon we'll get to the story of Qinghai Lake!
