1465: Chapter 1461: Bird Hunting 1465: Chapter 1461: Bird Hunting “Hum!”

Accompanying the tsunami and storm was the vibrating, boiling ocean.

The entire sea, right before Lu Ping’an’s eyes, was boiling and evaporating.

Massive amounts of water vapor turned into mist, obscuring the view of most mortals, yet it could not block Lu Ping’an’s scrutiny.

“…..Not planning to escape?”

Numerous sea beasts and birds were instantly evaporated, and the Beast Tamers’ War Beast Legion couldn’t even restrain them.

What level of existence is a Divine Beast?

From Decrees to above Rules, and the one in front of him was clearly stronger than an ordinary Rule-level.

As one of the main forces in this hunt, Lu Ping’an did not rush into the fray…

his several previous encounters made Lu realize that hunting this Phoenix might not be a problem that could be solved in the short term, and certainly not with mere brute courage.

But this time was completely different, the Easterners had already prepared.

“Activate the Ice Storm System.”

Following the command, a blizzard began to descend upon the world.

Snowflakes, like goose feathers, fell rapidly, their falling speed akin to the hellish difficulty of Russian Tetris…

The sound of those “snowflakes” crashing into the sea wasn’t much different than solid bricks.

Behind Lu Ping’an, Mei Yuge was holding a huge sapphire staff, summoning clouds and snow.

Normally, as a Newborn Rule-level, even if she could summon a blizzard, the range wouldn’t have reached the tens of square kilometers it did now, directly freezing the sea.

“Even with the ‘Divine Instrument’, take it easy, the battle has just begun…”

The right eye of the previously slain Ice Snow Demon Wolf was embedded in this staff.

This batch of Ancient Divine Beasts has lived too long, often having intricate connections with the World Origin.

When “World Fragments” fell various places in the world, many of them successfully acquired one or two related to themselves…

During the time when Lu Ping’an and others collected the fragments, they had several encounters with them.

Hunting them was certainly beneficial, this staff actually subtly linked to the root of the world, could mobilize the World’s Rule, a true “Divine Instrument.”

“…..Understood, I’ve hardly consumed any energy, this staff is amazing.

My condition will remain very good until it is exhausted.”

Lu Ping’an did not find World Fragments in that Demon Wolf, but he speculated that the fragments had already fused with it.

Now its “essence,” after processing, became “Beast Materials,” which were more convenient for life craftsmen to work with and better suited for weapon use.

[Cry of the Demon Wolf Xilair (Mid-Level Golden Cursed Item)]

Now, this teary-eyed gem was continuously shedding tears of ice and snow.

The weeping staff was actually using the authority of the world, transforming the battlefield into the Land of Ice and Snow.

This level of cursed item couldn’t have been created by Lu Ping’an himself; the materials he provided to a workshop were personally processed by an eighth-tier Craftsman, resulting in this formidable magical weapon.

If in Earth or elsewhere, this would be a Rule-level weapon, but in this world, it became the master of ice and snow, the avatar of a cold world.

At this moment, the entire world reverberated back and forth.

When the great bird shouted in Eastern language, even Lu Ping’an was a bit unable to hold back.

He heard “hatred” in it, and if this was indeed a fragment of Its personality, then the originally proud and indifferent soul had been thoroughly twisted by “negative humanity.”

The Phoenix tried to ram the defenses, but the prepared people were not about to let it go easily.

“Ha, from Its perspective, it’s indeed frustrating…

being attacked by its own power, then stripped of the possibility to escape.”

Divine Right, or rather World Rules, World’s Reason, originally belonged to the World’s Will, even that Demon Wolf had been Its pet.

Now this power had become the weapon of their nemesis, the pet had been killed and skinned for weapons, the personified It naturally plunged into a frenzy.

“Keep snowing, the second wave…”

One by one, the barrels were catapulted into midair, then directly shattered by the Phoenix’s flames.

However, the “Beast Blood” inside had already been activated, forming “solidified” crystals of ice and snow, a super consumable that could directly freeze the atmosphere.

After several failed hunts, the Easterners still seemed to be busy and inefficiently repeating…

but this, apart from being a performance to underestimate themselves to the Beasts, had already revealed various abilities of the Phoenix in actual combat, and humans, being adept with tools, naturally brought out restraining weapons.

A large amount of ice crystals appeared in the air, making the air much thinner, and the giant Phoenix’s flames visibly weakened.

The cold began to spread.

Lu Ping’an was still observing, watching its burning “intensity.”

In a sense, the Phoenix was his natural enemy, as his main Profession was Gardener and ninety-nine percent of Magic Plants feared fire, yet his expertise in Fire-control was very poor against the faux Phoenix.

But from another angle, Lu Ping’an was the most suitable Strongman to face It…

no one understood Flame Elemental Creatures better than he did.

“Keep going, don’t be intimidated by Its seemingly unharmed appearance, Its consumption is huge…”

In the official records, Lu Ping’an himself had tamed Rule-level or higher “Flaming Creatures”; as a super Fire Controller, he understood the nature of these flaming life forms better than anyone.

Before their energy ran out, they were basically Perpetual Motion Machines; as Energy Creatures, rather than harming It allowing It to regenerate at will, it was better to accelerate Its consumption rate, at the same time, forcing It into a dead end…

“Mortals, turn to ashes under my wings!”

The enraged Phoenix, circling forcefully, took flight, its feathers like small meteorites of fire falling straight down, each one bursting like a real meteor.

But Lu Ping’an was not frightened, but rather pleased.

“Retreat, retreat, don’t engage, just harass and wear It down.”

In Lu’s eyes, the greatest advantage and the biggest shortcoming of high-level Energy Creatures were actually the same…

with enough energy, they tirelessly regenerate endlessly, treating their Magic Power meter as a life bar.

“Force It to keep consuming!

Another wave of ice and snow fell, bringing explosive ice barrels, hitting the Phoenix.

This time, the flames around It had significantly dimmed, and the pain and pressure from the cold made It unable to accurately intercept those flying barrels.

The moment the barrels hit, they shattered, spreading a large amount of ice instantly, covering the Phoenix.

Although it evaporated in the next instant, the Divine Power imbued ice also made the Phoenix’s flames dim again.

Using the mana bar as a health bar indeed gave it a two-bar advantage…

but does that not mean that forcing you to consume is tantamount to reducing your health?

Elemental Creatures naturally counteract each other; attacking with targeted Elements naturally doubles the effort.

Madness eroded the Phoenix’s sanity again, and when those slender Phoenix eyes were filled with blaze, an infinite ring of fire with red feathers blasted out.

The already frozen sea was immediately thawed, giving the Phoenix more space, but the price was a further dimming of its luster.

Its deathblow was doomed to be meaningless, and another round of flying barrels came down, while Mei Yuge behind Lu Ping’an was still summoning the blizzard.

But even at this moment, Lu Ping’an did not go up to take action himself.

And the intelligence refreshed on the Contact Board also confirmed Lu Ping’an’s speculation.

“As expected, when one is in a desperate situation, the second one indeed comes on its own.”
