Chapter 391: Ice Against Fire (1/2)
Although it sounded easy to follow the Luan bird and the Mingshe, it was not as simple as it seemed. The landscape where the two beasts had fought was filled with danger.
Not only were there remnant wisps of energy, but there was also the problem of the entire landscape had been destroyed.
Earthen spikes were rising into the heavens; deep fathomless abysses were next to them, if one was to fall into one, it was certain death.
So it was not easy to traverse the distance of the Mingshe and the Luan bird, but they did not give up because of the challenges. Instead, they soldiered on, stepping on one peak of earthen spire after another until they had reached the back mountain.
Here tremors were running through the ground, and shockwaves could be felt through the air; it was clear that the victor of the battle had still not been found.
The battle was getting increasingly intensive; the shockwaves were getting to a point where the danger of getting hit could claim them of their lives, so Xue Wei stopped their advance and stayed behind a part of the mountain which had been toppled over.
This mountain was not able to contain the full force of the Luan Bird nor the Mingshe. Still, as long as it was merely the shockwaves, it could withstand the majority, and although parts were being chipped off with each incoming shockwave, it was not so bad that it would cause them any damage.
Xue Wei was using his senses to their limits, listening to the battle that was ongoing further away, and his heart was in his throat. This was by far even more dangerous than trying to battle the Scarlet Bee Queen.
Suddenly he was hit by a thought. He had the scarlet bee queen, why not use her to help him improve his chances of success?
The small bees would be unable to survive the shockwaves, but they were capable of dodging, and their surveillance was much better than what Xue Wei could achieve with his hearing alone.
He made Lin Xiao summon the Scarlet Bee Queen and a handful of the scarlet bees, and then he gave his order.
The Scarlet Bee Queen was tamed, and her mind was completely loyal to Lin Xiao and Xue Wei. Hence she had no complaints about the task at hand.
The handful of scarlet bees then began moving towards the battleground, and through the connection with the Scarlet Bee Queen, they started understanding what was happening.
The Mingshe was seemingly the most injured of the two beasts, it had open gashes all over the body, and the blue scales had turned red from the flowing blood.
The previously beautiful azure eyes were now red and bloodshot, and one of the wings had broken.
