Chapter 103 - Is This the Gap Between People?

Yun Feng thought for a moment before directly saying, "Zhuqing, go and check what it is."

Zhu Zhuqing didn't refuse. She simply replied, "Okay!"

Without hesitation, she turned into a shadow, leaping swiftly through the surrounding branches to reach the top.

Her sharp eyes glowed faintly, quickly scanning the area ahead. The Hell Civet's vision was remarkable, even at night, and now it was broad daylight.

Before long, Zhu Zhuqing spotted the target and quickly reported, "It seems to be a flying snake-type spirit beast. However, it can't fly very high, only about three meters off the ground. It has a fleshy crown on its head, bigger than its head, bright red like blood. Its tail is unique, shaped like a fan, and it's incredibly fast!"

Hearing this, Yun Feng immediately recognized the approaching spirit beast. It was the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent. Smiling meaningfully at Oscar, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's a Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent. This kind of spirit beast is very rare. The fleshy crest on its head has various mystical functions, which would be quite suitable for Oscar, especially since the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent has an exceptionally mild temperament."

Zhao Wuji's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this.

"A Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent! What luck! Oscar, this is a great opportunity for you. Keep an eye on its path, and report any changes to us immediately!"

Although Zhu Zhuqing felt somewhat uncomfortable with Zhao Wuji's commanding tone, she held back her feelings for the sake of the future.

"It's coming our way, and it's very fast. However, it seems to be struggling with balance, almost as if it's fleeing, and it's injured!"

"Its wings are a pale red, about six to eight meters in length. This is a thousand-year Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent!"

Upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's report, everyone from Shrek, except for Xiao Wu and Tang San, looked puzzled.

They gazed at Yun Feng in a new light. How did he know so much?

Tang San, seeing Dai Mubai and the others feeling awkward, tried to show off his own knowledge and said, "Yun Feng is right. Xiao Ao, this is indeed a lucky day for you. The Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent is non-venomous and is a rare, powerful, non-toxic snake."

"It attacks by constricting enemies to suffocate them. Its attack method is simple but extremely fast, and the crest stores various nutrients that can give it a speed boost in critical moments."

"If you acquire this spirit ring, your next skill should involve speed, either by boosting it for yourself or others. The Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent's attack power isn't very strong and is quite straightforward, so it's rare to find one over a thousand years old. You're in luck."

However, they all seemed to forget Zhu Zhuqing's earlier warning that the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent appeared to be fleeing from something.

Seeing the ideal spirit beast, they ignored everything else.

Yun Feng, however, remarked, "Too bad. This Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent is already targeted by someone else."

The others were surprised and turned to Yun Feng, puzzled.

"How do you know someone else is after it?" Zhao Wuji asked, and Yun Feng replied with a calm smile, "Spirit beasts in the Star Dou Forest have their own territories, and this Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent's panic suggests it's being pursued."

"A spirit beast of the same level wouldn't make it this panicked, and a higher-level beast wouldn't waste its time chasing it."

"Therefore, it's clear that this Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent is being hunted by other spirit masters."

Yun Feng's confident tone and assured expression quickly convinced everyone.

They had initially ignored Zhu Zhuqing's observations, relying on Zhao Wuji's presence to handle any conflict. Now, however, they felt slightly embarrassed, especially Oscar.

Yun Feng continued, "Of course, if they couldn't catch it, it just means they lack the ability. If you really want this spirit ring, it would be wise to catch it quickly and absorb it."

Oscar smiled upon hearing this, wanting to say something to Zhao Wuji, who, however, turned his head away, not wanting to listen. After all, rules were rules.

Oscar had no choice but to look to Yun Feng for guidance. "Yun Feng, do you know how to capture this spirit beast?"

Yun Feng smiled calmly and replied, "Of course. The simplest way is for Teacher Zhao to take action. With his Soul Sage level, he could capture it instantly."

When Oscar glanced at Zhao Wuji again and saw no reaction, he turned back to Yun Feng. "Is there another way?"

Yun Feng nodded. "As a snake-type spirit beast, the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent is naturally vulnerable to Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix. As the king of birds, a phoenix has a natural suppressive effect on such spirit beasts."

"Although this 'phoenix' has its flaws, it should still work."

Oscar was about to ask more when Zhu Zhuqing's voice suddenly came from above.

"It's here!"

The dense forest in front of them rustled as a massive serpent appeared. Just as Zhu Zhuqing described, it was six or seven meters long, with a blood-red crest on its head, looking fierce and wild as it charged forward.

Zhu Zhuqing's first soul skill activated as her yellow spirit ring lit up behind her: Nether Hundred Claws!

The Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent reacted quickly. As it lunged forward, it jerked its head to the side, avoiding Zhu Zhuqing's attack on its crest. Her strike landed on its body instead, resulting in a dull thud and slowing its advance.

Feeling the pain, the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent became frightened. It turned its head and opened its mouth wide, spewing a cloud of colorful mist toward Zhu Zhuqing.
