doubt a huge opportunity for Yi Yun. Once he ate it, his cultivation level should increase by leaps and bounds, and it could even result in his pure Yang body reaching a harmonious perfection.
However, the problem was, how was he going to obtain it?
Yi Yun frowned slightly. Around the lava lake, there were no objects that could conceal him. If he were to rush out to pick the lotus seed, he would definitely alarm those strange birds.
Yi Yun had never seen these birds before, but from his energy vision, Yi Yun could clearly tell that they were powerful. It was unlikely that he would be able to handle one, what’s more a group of them!
Besides, they were adept at flying and they were very fast. Yi Yun might not be able to escape fast enough.
Yi Yun looked up and saw four to five of the strange birds perched on the cliff in a high spot. Their eyes were as sharp as eagles as their gazes were locked onto the vicinity of the lava lake.
Very clearly, these strange birds were guards, and they were specifically in charge of being on watch.
With alert strange birds present, it was impossible to for Yi Yun to take advantage of the strange birds’ resting or hunting to pluck the lotus seed.
“These strange birds sure are careful.”
Yi Yun knew that, during the growth of treasures, the treasures were usually accompanied by terrifying desolate beasts who guarded them closely. When these desolate beasts discovered the treasure, they would take it for their own. When the treasure matured, they would enjoy it.
The more precious the treasure, the stronger the desolate beasts guarding it would be. Weak desolate beasts could never be capable at protecting it.
The feeling of not being able to obtain the treasure in front of him was an excruciating feeling.
Yi Yun hid behind a rock as he observed and waited.
He saw that, not far from the lava lake, there were a bunch of strange birds gathering together.
They had piled up the prey that they previously captured together and were now surrounding the prey in a circle.
They extended their 20-30 meter wide wings and prostrated themselves. Their wings overlapped each other, as if they were undergoing some form of ritual.
And at this moment, there was a sharp cry. Yi Yun looked over at the source of the noise and saw a huge cave in the hundred meter tall cliff. There were a bunch of protruded rocks around the cave, and rocks were covered in various desolate beast bones.
A bird’s nest?
Yi Yun knew that birds of prey, like eagles, liked to create their nests on cliffs. It seems like these strange birds have a similar behavior, but their nest was just too big. The entrance to the cave alone was about 20-30 meters wide.
At this moment, a strange bird flew out from the cave. Yi Yun felt his heart sink as he saw this strange bird!
