Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily-Chapter 204 - 202: Extraterritorial Fog Beast

These few dual-headed birds all belong to high-level Fog Beasts.

Fortunately, they are far less threatening than the Black Soul Crow summoned by Xiao Yanli, merely ordinary high-level Fog Beasts.

With the High Realm Body Refinement strength of Song Ping’an and Liu Ziwen, they can barely cope.

However, before they could kill these few dual-headed birds, their commotion attracted even more ferocious Fog Beasts.

A giant dual-headed bird, several meters long and over ten meters in length, charged out of the thick fog, diving towards the two from higher altitudes.

It carried a richer wave of Scorching Mist Energy, far beyond the ordinary high-level Fog Beasts.

Its appearance brought a chill to their hearts.

At this point, they couldn’t escape even if they wanted to.

Luckily, they were not the only ones on this trip.

A crimson Sword Qi erupted from another mountain peak, transforming into a pillar of fire, spanning nearly a kilometer, directly striking the diving dual-headed bird.

With a harrowing bird cry, the dual-headed bird was engulfed by the fiery Sword Qi.

Seeing this, Song Ping’an and Liu Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief and dealt with the remaining dual-headed bird Fog Beasts.

On another mountain peak, Song Changming saw they were unharmed and slowly sheathed his sword.

Squinting his eyes, he focused on the slowly approaching thick fog in the distance.

The fog was so dense that anything swallowed by it was no longer visible, as if engulfed by a terrifying beast that blotted out the sky and the sun!

The mountains and land were devoured completely, and all that could be seen was fog, producing an oppressive feeling.

"This must be what the Outer Realm feels like," thought Song Changming to himself.

Before long, Song Ping’an and Liu Ziwen came to his side.

"Brother Song."

"You two go back first, I’ll stay a while longer," said Song Changming.

"Changming, be careful, there are very strong and fearsome creatures among the Outer Domain Fog Beasts!" Liu Ziwen warned before leaving, afraid Song Changming might be careless.

"Hmm." Song Changming nodded.

After they left, he took another look at the swirling fog in front of him, hesitated not, and stepped into it alone!

Compared to the vast, seemingly endless fog, his figure appeared tiny as a speck of dust.

"Someone went in!"

In the distance, others watching the surging fog were shocked and noticed Song Changming stepping into the fog and disappearing from sight.

"Is that person seeking death?!"

"Never mind, quickly report this; this fog is extraordinary!"

"I’m afraid villages and towns will suffer again; hopefully, it won’t spread to the county town..."

On the other side, Song Changming, stepping into the fog, found himself in a new world of gray and white.

His field of vision extended only three to five meters; better to spread out his Spiritual Power, perceiving movements within a hundred meters!

If focusing his Spiritual Power in one direction, his Perception could extend at least five hundred meters!

This reflects the strengthening of his Spiritual Power.

This is also the remarkable result of his daily cultivation with the Ice Heart Purification Technique over the past few years.

With this Perception, he was not helpless in this foggy world, like a blind man.

The main reason for deciding to enter this fog from the Outer Domain today was a desire to experience first-hand the feeling of being in the Outer Realm ahead of time.

If he ever considers exploring the Outer Realm, he won’t find it hard to adapt on his first visit.

Compared to the real Outer Domain, the areas enveloped by fog within the Wangyue Prefecture are relatively safe.

In the initial stage, the number of Fog Beasts entering with the fog is not many.

Song Changming walked through the fog, as if he were the only living being in the world.

Looking up, a scorching crimson-yellow energy floated above, moving with the shifting fog.

This energy and the Scorching Mist Energy in the mist gold are from the same source but are not identical.

The Scorching Mist Energy inside mist gold is purer and more refined, even extractable and refinable into Inner Qi by Martial Artists!

It is said to be much faster than refining natural energy from the outside world.

However, this requires sufficiently strong Spiritual Power to constrain and refine the Scorching Mist Energy from mist gold into Inner Qi.

Otherwise, with insufficient Spiritual Power, forcing it can harm oneself and is not worth the risk.

In contrast, the Scorching Mist Energy within the large fog is far less intense than that of mist gold, containing many impurities, and cannot be used by Martial Artists to cultivate Inner Qi.

But wild Fog Beasts from the Outer Domain can absorb this Scorching Mist Energy in the fog, allowing them to grow, evolve, and become stronger.

Therefore, wherever Scorching Mist Energy appears in the fog, Fog Beasts will soon be attracted.

Song Changming stood here, waited for a moment, but didn’t see any Fog Beast arrive.

Thinking that this place was indeed different from the Outer Realm, the arriving Fog Beasts were not too many.

Such precious resources for growth and evolution, yet no beast showed any interest.

Just as Song Changming was about to lift his foot to leave, suddenly, a vague shadow descended from the thick fog above his head.

"Hmm?" Song Changming looked up.

The shadow gradually took shape, as a huge griffin-like head emerged from the clouds, its beak black as if charred, half-opened and moving towards the scorching mist energy.

A devouring force appeared with it, drawing in the silky scorching mist energy into the huge beak.

The surrounding fog was also affected by the appearing massive Fog Beast, tumbling even more violently.

In no time, this drifting scorching mist energy was completely absorbed by the large bird.

The griffin head then slowly moved toward the ground, to where Song Changming was standing.

Its enormous eyes were sharp and terrifying, like a Demon God, staring at Song Changming.

The immense pressure shook the soul.

If it were ordinary people, being gazed at by this slowly revealing giant in the vast fog, they might have already been scared out of their wits.

Song Changming had previously encountered the thrice-mutated Black Soul Crow, so he remained relatively calm, even comparing the differences between these two avian Fog Beasts in his mind.

Suddenly, a strange light floated in those two massive bird eyes.

Song Changming only felt that his Nether Sea was hit by a heavy blow, and his Spirit Body shook along with it.

His body was even frozen in place!

"What is this?!" Song Changming was startled in his heart.

Was his Nether Sea and Spirit Body attacked?

At this moment, the Griffin Fog Beast descended from the thick fog, its wings stirring up a violent gust.

Its beak opened again, this time intending to swallow Song Changming directly.

Given Song Changming’s Body Refinement strength, his well-tempered Essence Blood looked like Tang Monk’s Flesh to this Fog Beast, an attraction impossible to ignore.

Song Changming was immobilized, but at a crucial moment, the Ice Heart he visualized daily within his Nether Sea took effect.

It swiftly stabilized his severely shaking Nether Sea and Spirit Body, his body regained control, he stepped down and suddenly exerted force.

With Inner Qi circulating, there was a boom, and Song Changming seemed to transform into a streak of Thunder Light, disappearing from his spot, evading the bird’s beak.

Buzz!

Song Changming appeared dozens of meters away, stepping on a large rock, exerting force again, continuing his Instantaneous Movement.

The large rock crumbled under the force of his foot.

Song Changming turned back beside the descending big bird once again.

He landed a heavy kick at its neck.

Zizzz!

Electric light faintly sparked on his leg, explosively ringing in the air.

The bird’s head along with its neck, was forcibly stomped into the dirt by Song Changming’s kick.

Having just suffered a mental blow from the opponent, Song Changming dared not let his guard down, promptly drew his blade.

Inner Qi circulated, converging on the blade’s edge, his palm seemingly holding a blazing sun, dazzling and scorching.

Song Changming gave a low shout and swung the blade down.

The big bird under Song Changming’s foot seemed to sense danger, struggling madly to rise, but it was too late.

Transformed into a flaming long blade, it easily sliced off the large bird head beneath his feet.

Even the rocky ground beneath the bird’s head was shattered and collapsed by Song Changming’s strike!

Song Changming flipped over, gracefully landing outside the collapsed area, looking at the bird half-buried in the ground.

Fog Beasts possess extraordinary regeneration capabilities, but this bird, having its head chopped off, couldn’t regenerate on the spot to cause trouble again.

"I never expected this Fog Beast to have means to attack the spirit." Song Changming murmured.

If he hadn’t mastered the Ice Heart Purification Technique learned from Liu Yan’Er, he might have lost his life here.

"Truly not to be underestimated..."

These Fog Beasts native to the Outer Realm are different from those nurtured with Mist gold, stronger by far. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This big bird was so, and so were the Black Soul Crows before it.

No wonder Liu Dingsheng repeatedly mentioned how dangerous the Outer Domain was, and now he personally experienced some of it.

If not for the continuous improvement of his strength over the past two years, he might have faced a life-and-death battle just now, instead of quickly accomplishing a counter-kill like this.
