Chapter 391: Chapter 383 The Demon Bird’s Lair_1
By then, it would be easy to find out that Demon Birds were haunting Perching Phoenix Mountain.
Qin Niu was well aware that the competition in this world was incredibly cruel, and some advanced cultivation resources were extremely precious. To him, that Demon Bird was also considered an advanced cultivation resource.
Just the Demon Feathers alone were already extremely valuable, and if he could kill it, obtaining its Demon Core, he would definitely be able to refine a batch of top-level elixirs.
Last time, by only killing a Pig Demon that hadn’t reached its potential, the acquired Demon Core was directly refined into a Boundary-breaking Elixir.
That Demon Bird was hundreds of times more formidable than the Pig Demon.
With its Demon Core, the elixir refined from it might even help Qin Niu advance directly to the Spirit Qi Realm.
If he could subdue it, that would be even more incredible.
He would then have a super powerful mount at his disposal, whether for guarding his cave dwelling or for traveling around, it would be a great ally.
How could he allow others to get their hands on such advanced resources?
Good things definitely need to be kept tightly under wraps, never giving outsiders a chance.
The best method was to prevent others from knowing that the Qifeng Mountain Range harbored a Demon Bird.
This was an easy task.
Now, the area around Jade Stream Town was essentially dominated by him.
Moreover, he had bought all the hills behind Shuangfeng Village, which had become his private territory.
As long as he released some poisonous insects in the mountains, after the villagers were stung and injured, they naturally wouldn’t dare to enter the mountains lightly anymore.
Gradually, the whole mountain would completely become his private territory.
At this moment, he was holding the fiery-red Demon Feather, studying it over and over again.
Trying various experiments.
That day at the market, he had personally heard the person selling Phoenix Feathers say that they could be used to practice Fire-based Magic.
To cast spells, one had to be at least at the Immortal Master level. Qin Niu hadn’t even reached the Spirit Qi Realm yet, so it was normal to not come up with anything from studying the Demon Feather.
He concluded that his cultivation was too shallow at present, which was why he could not fathom the uses of the Demon Feather.
…
In the following days, Qin Niu would take his wives and concubines up the mountain for cultivation every day. In the evenings, he would go alone to the foot of the highest peak to quietly observe the life habits of the Demon Bird.
After careful observation, he found that as long as the weather was clear, the Demon Bird would fly away from the main peak to cultivate somewhere behind the tall peaks.
Each time it left the main peak, there was no visible flame on its body, but when it returned from cultivation, it would be shrouded in flames.
Qin Niu was particularly curious, where did it go to cultivate each time?
What exactly was behind the main peak?
During this period, although many of the Termites he had sent into the main peak had died, some survivors had successfully entered the peak-top area.
The Termite that had discovered the Demon Feather especially stood out.
It seemed to have ascertained the location of the firebird’s nest.
The Termites helped Qin Niu to get a clear grasp of the situation on the peak-top.
There should be at least ten or more Demon Birds in the main peak.
This was an extremely terrifying number.
Usually, finding a single Demon Bird in the mountains was already very rare. To have at least ten Demon Birds living in a peak that wasn’t particularly tall was definitely what one would call a Demon Bird’s nest.
Qin Niu initially wanted to take the opportunity to sneak into the peak-top to explore while the firebird was absent from the main peak.
He now directly abandoned this idea.
The next day, a light and scattered drizzle started to fall from the sky.
From his experience, he knew that one should not cultivate under the Ancient Banyan Tree during gloomy rainy weather. As long as it was overcast and raining, even during the daytime, the boughs and leaves of the Ancient Banyan Tree would automatically sprinkle chilling energy.
If one stayed under the tree for a bit too long, it was very easy to be killed by it.
“Wan Yan, Cai Xian, both of you stay home for cultivation today! Practice your Step-Method Martial Skills and sword techniques well, I am going to cultivate insects in the mountains, and if I come back late, you don’t have to wait for me,” said Qin Niu to his wives and concubines, as he walked out the door with Green Ox.
