Chapter 321: 179, 180. Great Power Clears the Field, Harvesting Immortality Peach (Subscribe Requested)

The search for Yaochi Peak continued intermittently during the following month.

Because the method of obtaining the Immortality Peach had become unpredictably random and differed from the original expectations, the Imperial Court, worrying that a lucky individual might get the peach, began to directly dispatch nearby troops to surround the mountain...

As for the Yan Family, vassals of Accumulating Thunder Mountain, they too sent numerous Demon Beast Knights to assist.

After more than a decade of nurturing, combined with the Beast-Taming Method gifted by Song Cheng, Yan Baixiang, with his extraordinary talent, finally trained a new type of soldier hitherto unseen—the Flying Eagle Knights.

The Flying Eagles, mighty eagles called "Serlin" by nearby villagers, mean "demon," and Yan Baixiang gave them an official name—Black Demon Eagles.

Black Demon Eagles are naturally Force Realm demon beasts, and the strongest among them could grow to be equivalent to a human Form Realm.

The Beast-Taming Method, to be candid, actually involved a combination of the Barbarian Tribe’s unique "Shamanic Medicine Secret Technique" and a technique based on the concept of "enduring"...

To "endure" and tame a Black Demon Eagle, one must at least be a Form Realm Expert.

These experts would catch the eagles and, from then on, stay awake day and night in a showdown to see who would close their eyes first...

If the Black Demon Eagle conceded first and ate the meat fed by the tamers, it had lost; then they can seize the opportunity to mix the shamanic secret medicine into the meat and tame the Black Demon Eagle in one fell swoop.

However, Form Realm Experts were exceedingly scarce, so Yan Baixiang had to ask his foster-father, Song Cheng, for several "Heaven’s Favor Secret Medicine" to forcibly enhance more than two hundred people. Together with several dozen more they gathered, it totaled three hundred.

Towards this foster son, Song Cheng had indeed shown considerable favor because of Su Mengzhen, especially after he realized that the number of "Medicinal Humans" had an upper limit after using many times.

Mysterious Level Grade D, like Yu, could at most withstand a few hundred Medicinal Humans.

Grade C could withstand thousands.

As a Grade B like him, the amount was several thousand; exactly how many thousands were unknown to him, but he guessed it might be around four or five.

At this moment, clouds floated above, massively trailing along with the wind, taking on all sorts of solid forms; the 300 Flying Eagle Knights unfolded their massive wings. Sweeping across the high blue, they soared and patrolled, casting shadows below.

The Imperial army was patrolling below, stationed, no longer allowing anyone to approach.

Except for... the children of Noble Families.

The number of Noble Family Children was so few compared to the Medicinal Humans Song Cheng had sent in, they were merely a drop in the bucket.

...

However, as for the current situation, even Song Cheng himself hadn’t anticipated it, and after much deliberation, he decided to try it out himself.

Before departing, he suddenly thought of "that chaotic path between continents" and felt there might be some subtle connection between the two, though he couldn’t be sure.

If he wanted to be sure, the best way was to bring someone who had personally experienced it.

Yan Muyi and others had arrived in Dashang through Possession.

Only the Su Family had walked.

Thus, he took Su Mengzhen with him.

Spring grass was lush, each leaf facing and reflecting the light, and in the occasionally strong, occasionally gentle mountain breeze, they rippled creating dazzling reflections like golden water.

Su Mengzhen, with her long hair simply tied at the end with a red string into a braid, was blowing in the wind like a flow of ink...

She walked by Song Cheng’s side, maintaining a certain distance, giving outsiders... the impression that the two were merely partners, with no other type of relationship.

Suddenly, the sound of flapping wings passed through the sky.

A Black Demon Eagle descended, its mount was a man with the body of a tiger and arms of an ape, eyes like shooting stars, and an exuberant demeanor; he had shed his previous naivety and added a bit more of the steadiness that came with having a family.

The newcomer was indeed Yan Baixiang.

"Mother!"

"Foster father!"

After landing, Yan Baixiang bowed to them one by one.

Su Mengzhen directly asked, "Have you had children yet?"

Yan Baixiang replied, "I had a son five years ago, another three years ago, and another last year... I always remember to hang the likenesses of mother and foster father in the shrine, compelling the clansmen to believe in and worship them."

Su Mengzhen said, "That’s good then,"

Having said that, she asked no further.

As a member of the Longevity Species, she only cared about the Great Path and the protection of stronger beings like Song Cheng; of course, real emotions could develop in such originally interest-driven relationships.

However, she would definitely not extend such emotions to short-lived species.

Why?

It’s simple.

If you dedicate too much affection to a pet cat, wouldn’t you be heartbroken when it dies?

The answer is yes.

The sentiments of the Longevity People run deep; such irrevocable sadness could turn into shackles, leaving flaws in their hearts.

Additionally, having almost never lived together, Su Mengzhen’s affection for this son was naturally faint.

Song Cheng, looking at the data above Yan Baixiang’s head, noted that he was still in the Form Realm after all these years and said, "You’ve fallen behind a lot in your Cultivation Technique."

Yan Baixiang chuckled naively, "I’ve been busy taming beasts and training soldiers."

Song Cheng said, "Advance to the Qi Realm soon. After that, I’ll help you get a secret medicine from the Xuanwu Taoist Temple that reaches Pseudo-Profound."

"Thank you, foster father!"

Yan Baixiang gave thanks.

Su Mengzhen waved her hand, somewhat impatiently saying, "Off you go, your foster father and I have matters to attend to."

Yan Baixiang stood up, remounted the Black Demon Eagle, and spurred it into the air. As he ascended, he took one last look at the grassland below at his foster father and mother.

The foster father still looked like a young man, and the mother like a young woman... frёewebηovel.cѳm

The young woman smiled joyously with her eyes, revealing a happiness never shown before in front of him, like a sauntering cat or a jubilant bird, revolving and circling around that robust and magnificent young man...
