Chapter 745: Chapter 310: Crimson Divine Bone (Part 2)

This round of operations consumed a portion of Xu Ran’s innate qi, but at this moment, his Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body] was quickly replenishing the innate qi, and in no time, it was full again.

The peregrine falcon in the safe zone sensed the slowly drifting white innate qi in the valley. Its previously terrified body gradually calmed down, and the tense body also slowly relaxed.

The coldness deep in its soul dissipated at this moment, replaced by an incredibly warm feeling.

This feeling could only be experienced when innate qi surged into the body.

"Whew!"

The peregrine falcon let out a long breath.

"Thankfully, I have my master; otherwise, I don’t know what I would have done?"

Just as the peregrine falcon was relaxing.

Above the high sky of the valley, fierce winds howled, stirring up waves of air. The innate qi drifting in the sky was suddenly blown apart by the gusts of wind, scattering everywhere.

Before the peregrine falcon could react, a figure like a red meteor appeared in front of it in less than a breath’s time, with that enormous red bone now tightly against the peregrine falcon’s brow.

"Be careful!"

Xu Ran instinctively shouted, but it was already too late.

That red bone was too bizarre; the body didn’t move at all, yet in the next instant, it appeared in front of the peregrine falcon’s body, and even Xu Ran’s golden eyes couldn’t track any movement trajectory.

He could only see spatial fluctuations between the place where the red bone originally existed and where it was now.

"That’s spatial fluctuation!"

Xu Ran was a little shocked.

Unexpectedly, this bizarre red bone also had such a means, spatial movement.

Spatial movement poses too much threat to strong fighters of the same level.

Even if spatial movement was identified, it can’t be stopped.

However, with mental preparation, next time Xu Ran wouldn’t give it this chance.

At the moment the red bone appeared before the peregrine falcon,

from its heart, countless blood flowed out, carrying [Kunpeng Bloodline], flowing throughout the body subconsciously, and endless Kunpeng aura burst forth from within.

In an instant, the peregrine falcon’s size ballooned several times, and those originally white, supple feathers seemed to transform into the toughest shield, protecting every part of the peregrine falcon’s body.

At the same time.

A gigantic raptor figure slowly appeared behind the peregrine falcon, its body extremely large, completely blocking the light of the valley. Each feather seemed like a towering tree, flickering with a faint light; the head resembled a majestic mountain, imposing and stern, with sharp eyes like bright stars.

At the same time, it emitted a stark red, staring intently at the red bone in front of it.

"This should be the final form of the Kunpeng!"

At this time, Xu Ran stood in place, his golden eyes watching the massive illusion appearing behind the peregrine falcon, somewhat shocked.

Although he had seen the peregrine falcon manifest the Kunpeng before, it was only a weakened version and did not have such a massive body.

But this time was different, because of the terrifying aura emanating from the red bone, plus instinctively, the peregrine falcon felt it was at a critical point of life and death, it unleashed all of its [Kunpeng Bloodline] power, barely able to manifest the Kunpeng.

"But... Little White’s cultivation is still too weak; even at what it perceives as a life-and-death moment, it’s still just a weakened version of the Kunpeng!"

Xu Ran hadn’t made any moves because he could see it.

This red bone held no intent to kill regarding the peregrine falcon, though why was unknown; at any rate, it wasn’t to kill the peregrine falcon.

As things stand, its goal is to fully stimulate the peregrine falcon’s Kunpeng bloodline to manifest it. Even if it’s not a bad thing for the peregrine falcon, it certainly isn’t exactly good news either.

"I wonder what the purpose of this red bone is, after all?"

Although it had yet to assume a human form, the intelligence it displayed was enough to crush a large number of humans.

"Buzz!"

As Xu Ran pondered, the red bone lingering in front of the peregrine falcon finally moved.

Gusts of red storm started sweeping outward centered around it, like locusts plaguing the land, leaving a mess wherever it passed. Enormous rocks, tall trees above the valley were lifted into the sky, transforming into tornadoes, swirling upwards, without a trace of where they went.

At the same time.

The previously immobile red bone at this moment also started rotating rapidly, forming a striking red storm.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

...

Suddenly, thunder reverberated within the valley, pieces of red light illuminating Xu Ran’s face. It wasn’t the morning sun, but the intense light erupting from the red bone.

And when the thunder sounded, the red bone transformed into a blazing red storm, fearlessly attacking the Kunpeng illusion behind the peregrine falcon.

"Just as expected!"

Seeing this, Xu Ran murmured without surprise.

Now the only thing about the peregrine falcon that could interest this red bone is the Kunpeng bloodline.

It also contained innate qi, but compared to the innate qi within the peregrine falcon, Xu Ran’s was worlds apart. Even after Xu Ran had unleashed so much innate qi, the red bone showed no intention of stopping, heading straight for the peregrine falcon.

If not for innate qi, then it could only be the Kunpeng bloodline.

"Could it be that after all this effort, the red bone could actually absorb the Kunpeng aura from Little White?!"

Xu Ran stared at the crimson storm with some astonishment, his face solemn.

Previously, after the red bone devoured the innate qi it left behind, it transformed from a puddle of red sticky fluid into a red bone, and it could even possess innate qi.

So after devouring the peregrine falcon’s [Kunpeng Bloodline], could it also acquire the [Kunpeng Bloodline]?

Even if reluctant to admit, that possibility existed, and the answer was affirmative.

Sure enough.

That crimson storm directly enveloped the expansive Kunpeng illusion, and the gigantic Kunpeng illusion kept flapping its enormous wings, trying to shred the crimson storm.

However, the red storm clung like a stubborn adhesive, impossible to shake off.

As the red storm lingered longer, the Kunpeng illusion grew smaller until finally, it vanished entirely from the valley.

The red that the colossal Kunpeng illusion had blocked reappeared on Xu Ran’s face, somewhat glaring.

This wasn’t good news.

Xu Ran immediately moved to the now unconscious peregrine falcon’s side.

All over its body was sweat, its feathers soaked, and although its breath was weak, it remained very steady.

Seeing this, Xu Ran transferred a stream of innate qi into its body, roamed around inside the peregrine falcon’s body, and only after carefully feeling it did he place the peregrine falcon on the ground.

"Luckily, Little White’s [Kunpeng Bloodline] hasn’t decreased!"

"Not only hasn’t it decreased, it’s even increased!"

Xu Ran spoke heavily, exhibiting puzzlement.

Though the [Kunpeng Bloodline] within the peregrine falcon had increased, becoming purer, which was a good thing, the way it happened felt somewhat strange.

After all, the aura the red bone had emitted just now indeed appeared to want to completely kill the peregrine falcon here.

Innate qi continued roaming within the peregrine falcon’s body, passing through every part, and Xu Ran meticulously checked every area, finding no problems, before gently laying it on the ground; a flick of his small hand made the sweat-soaked feathers smooth again.

"As long as it’s alright!"

After speaking lightly, his gaze shifted to the red light high above, his expression grave.

"Next, let’s see what the bone, having absorbed innate qi and Kunpeng bloodline, turns into!"
