Chapter 195 The Dying Yellow Bird
At the top of the Jianmu tree, two figures stood facing each other.

The middle-aged man wore a blood-red robe, had a domineering face, and his blood-red eyes were full of disdain. When his killing intent surged, it seemed as if mountains of corpses and seas of blood were floating and sinking.

Opposite the middle-aged man was a young man dressed in a light blue Taoist robe. The young man had a resolute expression, but his tough face did not show any sharpness. Instead, it had a gentle feeling. However, occasionally, a sharp glint would flash in his eyes, like a divine sword hidden in its sheath.

On a huge tree branch not far from the two, a giant black serpent was fighting with a beautiful orange-yellow bird.

The yellow bird is a bird of flight. It can take flight by virtue of its wings and does not need to rely on the branches below. It seems to have the initiative. As long as it flies, the black water snake cannot attack it at all.

However, although the yellow bird has the advantage of flying, the black water snake is already huge, and the yellow bird has no chance of catching it. It is not particularly afraid of the yellow bird, but instead coils its body up. As soon as the yellow bird gets close, the black water snake will wait for the opportunity to strike.

In fact, as long as the Yellow Bird does not attack, it will be invincible. However, how angry the Yellow Bird is, how could it not attack the Black Water Serpent?

A thousand years ago, it was the Blackwater Serpent that stole the spiritual medicine from the Heavenly Emperor's treasury, causing the Yellow Bird's thousand-year wait to be in vain.

Enraged, the yellow bird chased after the black water snake, killing it to vent its anger before returning to its nest.

But little did anyone know that the Blackwater Serpent was not actually dead. The medicinal effects of the elixir kept it alive, and it was later saved by the Blackhearted Old Man using the power of the Blood-Devouring Bead.

This is why, despite the Yellow Bird's advantage over the Black Water Serpent, it has always struggled to defeat it and has never been able to gain a decisive advantage.

The reason for this was the spiritual medicine in the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury. Although the Blackwater Serpent was severely injured and on the verge of death, which consumed a lot of the medicinal power of the spiritual medicine, it was still stronger than other primordial spirit beasts.

However, the more powerful one should have been the Nine Heavens Spirit Bird, the Yellow Bird. Therefore, how could the Yellow Bird not be angry when it saw the Black Water Serpent that should have died under its beak?
A thousand years ago, the Blackwater Serpent had already succeeded in attacking them once. This time, they not only discovered that the Blackwater Serpent was not dead, but its strength had also increased, and it even wanted to covet its spiritual medicine.

Enraged, the yellow bird disregarded everything else and would attack the Blackwater Serpent whenever it found an opportunity.

Although the Blackwater Serpent's scales are incredibly hard and its body is thick and powerful, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators to harm it in the slightest, the Yellow Bird's beak and sharp claws are not to be underestimated.

Under the attack of the yellow bird, the Blackwater Serpent also suffered many wounds. Its scales, which had originally shone with a ghostly light in the sunlight, became broken and tattered. Many places even had pitted and bloody holes, and a large chunk of flesh was missing.

However, although the Yellow Bird's attack was fierce, the Black Water Serpent was not to be trifled with. Neither the snake's biting head nor its slapping tail could be easily withstood by the Yellow Bird. It even had to be careful not to be strangled by the Black Water Serpent.

While injuring the Blackwater Serpent, the Yellow Bird's feathers no longer shone as brilliantly in the sunlight as before; every time it flapped its wings and took flight, large pieces of orange-yellow feathers fell off.

"Wow!"

"Hiss!!"

A clear, phoenix-like bird song rang out, followed immediately by the hissing sound of a snake flicking its tongue. The two ancient beasts were fighting fiercely, each wanting to kill the other.

Wanren turned his head slightly, gazing at the yellow bird and the black water snake locked in battle, a faint smile flashing in his eyes.

Fight, fight as fiercely as possible, ideally until both are severely injured. Then, as long as this guy in front of him is dealt with, everything will be his. The thought of obtaining two ancient beasts at the same time, and even taking down Zhang Xiaofan, filled Wan Renzhao with a crazy and twisted pleasure.

Ten years, ten years!
For the past ten years, Wanrenwang has been thinking about revenge every moment and waiting to take care of Zhang Xiaofan.

And now, all of this is right before our eyes!
Looking at Wanrenwang, whose mind had been corrupted—or rather, whose inner self had been completely unleashed—Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow in his eyes.

At this moment, although the aura of Asura within him was extremely strong, Wanrenwang was still the same Wanrenwang.

However, driven by his enormous ambition and thirst for power, Wanrenwang has gradually become distorted and insane.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaofan turned his head to look to the side and saw the yellow bird suddenly swooping down, its sharp claws grabbing at the black water snake's heart.

The moment the claws pierced his stomach, a sharp pain shot through him, and at the same time, that familiar aura of death from a thousand years ago surged up once more.

The Blackwater Serpent suddenly coiled itself around the Yellow Bird's sharp claws.

This caused the yellow bird's claws to deviate slightly; although they struck a vital spot, they were not fatal.

The yellow bird clearly realized this as well, and immediately flapped its wings violently, trying to fly away.

However, seeing that its mortal enemy had revealed a fatal flaw, how could the Blackwater Serpent give the Yellow Bird another chance to escape?
The next moment, the Blackwater Serpent suddenly lunged forward, its mouth wide open, and bit the yellow bird's neck, knocking it down onto a tree branch.

"Bah! Bah!"

The yellow bird, whose neck had been bitten by the black water snake, felt its life force slipping away and let out mournful cries, as if pleading for help.

Clearly, the yellow bird had already noticed Wan Renwang and Zhang Xiaofan not far away. However, with its mortal enemy in front of it, it had no time to pay attention to the two powerful but small creatures.

But at this moment, with life hanging in the balance, even the proud yellow bird, as soaring as the heavenly bird, had no choice but to cry for help.

Upon seeing this, Wanrenwang excitedly licked his lips, and a bloodthirsty and ferocious look appeared on his face. The Fulong Cauldron behind him flickered with a scarlet blood light.

Although Wanrenwang needed primordial spirit beasts, he didn't care whether they lived or died at this moment.

After all, even if a spirit beast dies, the power within its body will not dissipate for a while. With the help of the Four Spirit Blood Array, Wan Renwang can quickly extract it.

In particular, once Zhang Xiaofan is defeated and the Qingyun Sect is conquered, the remaining two can also be obtained, so the slightest loss is no longer a concern.

As Huang Niao looked at the bloodthirsty and greedy look in Wan Renwang's eyes, it seemed to see its own death in its own eyes. The light in its eyes slowly dimmed, and even the strength to struggle weakened.
