Golden Chicken Mountain.
Not long after the Beast Tide entered the territory of Jingguo Country, Zhou Daoyi received the related news.
He didn’t dare to neglect the matter and swiftly had Zhou Chun send out scouts to patrol and monitor the defense area around Golden Chicken Mountain day and night, to prevent small groups of the Beast Tide from entering the vast plains behind them without their knowledge.
Two days passed in this way, and sure enough, scouts reported that a small faction of the Beast Tide had been spotted on the eastern side of Golden Chicken Mountain.
Upon receiving this intelligence, Zhou Daoyi hurriedly went to scout the situation himself.
He flew eastward for over a hundred li and then saw Demon Birds fluttering in the sky and Demon Beasts galloping on the ground, both airborne and landborne, surging towards the direction of the great plains.
From the sky, he roughly counted and found that there were about six to seven hundred Demon Birds, and the number of Demon Beasts galloping on the ground was no less than a thousand!
Fortunately, although the number appeared large, there were actually only two third-order Demon Beasts among them.
One was a Demon Bird, its true form a Blue-Black Giant Eagle, which judging by its aura, should be a lower-grade third-order Demon Beast.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
The other was a quadruped, its true form a One-Horned Fire Wolf, and by its aura, it very likely was a mid-grade third-order Demon Beast.
Besides these two third-order Demon Beasts, there were also more than ten second-order Demon Beasts within the Beast Tide, and their strength was definitely not to be underestimated.
However, looking at the direction of the Beast Tide’s march, it wasn’t going to pass by the stronghold at Golden Chicken Mountain.
After scouting this information, Zhou Daoyi did not act rashly but quickly returned to the stronghold and began to discuss countermeasures with Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoquan.
After a round of discussions, it was decided that Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoquan would stay to command the stronghold while Zhou Daoyi himself would take the Fire Divine Jackal to strike at the Beast Tide, drawing them towards the stronghold.
Once the plan was set, Zhou Daoyi quickly left the stronghold and began to take action.
He caught up with the advancing Beast Tide and directly let loose the Fire Divine Jackal, which let out a provocative howl at the One-Horned Fire Wolf within the Beast Tide.
Aooo——
In midair, the Fire Divine Jackal’s fur as red as burning flames howled skyward, immediately drawing the attention of all the flying and walking creatures within the Beast Tide.
Upon discovering that the source of the sound was a third-order Demon Beast, a number of flying and walking creatures within the Beast Tide stirred, revealing signs of dread.
But as an eagle screech and a wolf howl sounded, the unrest in the Beast Tide quickly subsided.
At this point, the Fire Divine Jackal had served its purpose.
Faced with the provocation from the Fire Divine Jackal, a member of the wolf clan who was also a third-order beast, the One-Horned Fire Wolf had no choice but to come forward to fight; otherwise, it would have no right to lead the pack.
Since this quadruped leader was going to confront the Fire Divine Jackal, the Beast Tide naturally had to halt its march temporarily to witness this battle of kings.
However, the Blue-Black Giant Eagle leading the flying creatures had no interest in watching the battle; instead, it dove towards Zhou Daoyi with a fierce screech, launching an attack.
Its wings fluttering, cyan wind-borne Spiritual Power surged, instantly forming two cyan wind blades about a zhang long, which shot toward Zhou Daoyi with great force.
“Bring it on!”
Zhou Daoyi shouted, not eager to reveal his Green Flood Dragon trump card, but instead activated the Gold Dawn Pendant Magic Artifact he had obtained from Zhang Shi’an, which erupted in a burst of golden dawn that shielded him within.
The two cyan wind blades shattered upon contact, unable to harm Zhou Daoyi in the slightest.
Zhou Daoyi then produced the very same Flaming Spear Magic Artifact that had once caused Zhang Shi’an great loss, directing it to pierce towards the Blue-Black Giant Eagle.
This artifact had originally been obtained from a protector of the Dragon Transformation Sect he and Zhou Mingde had once ambushed, and was itself a mighty mid-grade third-order Magic Artifact.
Because they had not yet turned against the Dragon Transformation Sect, Zhou Mingde dared not refine and use this object.
By the time Zhou Daoyi had successfully opened his Purple Mansion, the southern campaign was about to commence, and with those ill-gotten gains he no longer had reservations, freely refining and utilizing them.
At this moment, armed with several exquisite Magic Artifacts, Zhou Daoyi, despite only having opened his Purple Mansion not long ago, was still able to fight the Blue-Black Giant Eagle on equal footing, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
However, while Zhou Daoyi was still evenly matched, the Fire Divine Jackal quickly fell into a disadvantage.
Being a small realm lower and sharing the same attribute, the Fire Divine Jackal was no match for the One-Horned Fire Wolf.
Seeing this, Zhou Daoyi quickly sent a signal to retreat.
Upon receiving the signal, the Fire Divine Jackal did not hesitate at all and instantly turned into a streak of fire, fleeing away.
Of course, the One-Horned Fire Wolf did not want to let the audacious wolf that had dared to challenge its authority escape.
Mainly because the Fire Divine Jackal was extremely close and compatible with it in both species and attribute.
If it could consume the inner core and body of the Fire Divine Jackal, it would surely make great advancements in its Cultivation Level, perhaps even getting a chance to glimpse the realm of an upper-grade third-order Demon Beast.
Watching the One-Horned Fire Wolf chase after the Fire Divine Jackal, the quadrupeds showed signs of change.
Creatures such as the Wind Blade Wolf, Redflame Wolf, and other wolven Demon Beasts and Dog Demons, all rapidly followed the fleeing figure of the One-Horned Fire Wolf.
Other species of Demon Beasts appeared somewhat hesitant and indecisive, not making a decision immediately.
The Blue-Black Giant Eagle, still in combat with Zhou Daoyi, seeing this, mistakenly believed it had seen through the humans’ trickery, hastily eased its offensive against Zhou Daoyi and instead furiously squawked at the quadrupeds to follow and chase after the One-Horned Fire Wolf.
It even directed many of the flying Demon Beasts to join in the pursuit.
Little did it know, this was precisely what Zhou Daoyi had intended.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Zhou Daoyi did not wish to engage in a life-or-death struggle with the Blue-Black Giant Eagle here and immediately turned to retreat.
