Locked by the gaze of the slender figure, a warning signal surged in Li Fan's heart.
At this moment, Xu Ke, who had a spiritual connection with Li Fan, also reacted.
Protecting Li Fan behind him, Xu Ke nervously said, "Song Yang? What do you want?"
Perhaps the rare chaos in the Beast Taming Sect in hundreds of years gave him confidence. Instead of acting, Song Yang directly said with a fierce expression, "I really don't understand why your luck, this idiot, is so good!"
"You ask me what I want to do? Of course, it's to take back what should have belonged to me!"
Song Yang revealed his ferocious appearance, his eyes full of killing intent.
And his companion spirit beast, the double-headed black snake, also, at his command, continuously swam from the ground, slowly approaching.
Xu Ke's face turned pale, constantly retreating, and said, "Senior Brother Song, what are you trying to do? I haven't taken anything that belongs to you..."
Although he said so, Xu Ke always stood in front of Li Fan, trying to block Song Yang's line of sight.
These small actions naturally couldn't escape Song Yang's notice. With a mocking expression, he said, "Kid, stop pretending. Transfer the ownership of the Profound Bird to me, and I might spare your life. Otherwise..."
Song Yang sneered, "Don't blame me for not considering the camaraderie of the same sect. Extracting the essence of the spirit beast's blood, forcibly transferring the pain of the companion spirit beast, I'm sure you're aware of it, right?"
At these words, Xu Ke looked panicked. "Song Yang! Plundering the spirit beast of the same sect is a major taboo for the sect! How dare you..."
Song Yang impatiently interrupted Xu Ke, "Really obtuse. At a time like this, you're still talking about the sect's rules. Can't you see that the Beast Taming Sect is struggling to survive now?"
It seemed that his patience was also completely exhausted. He no longer bothered to waste words and directly commanded, "Black Spirit, attack!"
The black double-headed snake had already been ready to strike. At this moment, following Song Yang's order, its body slightly straightened.
From the open eyes of one snake head, a black venom shot out.
The black water, like arrows, was about to fall on Xu Ke.
Stepping on the wind, Xu Ke swiftly turned his body, barely avoiding it.
The black water fell on the ground, making a sizzling sound.
Xu Ke glanced at it and couldn't help but turn pale.
Not only were all the plants corroded to nothing, even the stones couldn't resist the erosion of the venom.
He had not yet comprehended the protection of spiritual energy. Once hit, he would probably either die or be seriously injured.
Thinking of this, Xu Ke took something out of his chest and threw it towards Song Yang and the double-headed snake.
At the same time, he took out a white feather from his chest, intending to summon a crane to escape.
However, Song Yang had been prepared for a long time.
The hidden weapon thrown by Xu Ke hadn't exploded yet, but it was caught by a green light and fixed in the air.
In the black snake's two heads, the one that had been closed suddenly opened its eyes.
A black light burst out, hitting the white feather of the crane.
The white crane feathers seemed to ignite, turning into inch by inch ashes and drifting down.
"Useless, Xu Ke. I've made thorough preparations to deal with you. I've been secretly tracking you for months, and I know all your means!"
"With what are you going to fight against me?" Song Yang looked at Xu Ke with eyes that seemed to be looking at a dead man.
The next moment, another stream of venom sprayed out from the black snake's mouth.
It was about to fall on Xu Ke, who couldn't dodge due to his shaken mind.
At the critical moment, a white light suddenly shot out from behind, directly colliding with the black venom.
Although the venom that could corrode rocks and wood seemed unstoppable, it seemed powerless against this white light.
Upon contact, it all disappeared.
The white light's momentum remained undiminished, heading straight for the double-headed black snake.
The snake head that had been closed suddenly opened its eyes again, and a black light burst out, barely blocking the white light.
While Song Yang was shocked, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.
"Celestial Omen Profound Light!"
"The Celestial Omen Profound Bird is indeed extraordinary. It can contend with the Black Spirit even in its juvenile stage. If it's in its complete form..."
"Ultimately, what matters is its companion divine ability, [Celestial Omen in Me]."
Song Yang looked at the spiritually exhausted Li Fan and the desire to strip the Celestial Omen Bird became even stronger.
"Are you okay?" Seizing the time pulled by the Celestial Omen light just now, Xu Ke quickly walked away, flying towards the distance.
But the disparity in strength between him and Song Yang was too great. It wouldn't be long before he was caught up.
At this moment, Xu Ke did not first worry about his own safety.
Instead, he looked at Li Fan, who had used his innate divine ability to the point of exhaustion, with distress.
"So weak, one attack is the limit."
Chapter 321: Celestial Omen Descends, Profound Bird (Part 2)
In his exhaustion, Li Fan couldn't help but think helplessly.
Even the strength to scratch Xu Ke with his claws was gone. Li Fan just uttered a soft sound, indicating that he was temporarily fine.
Just a moment ago, witnessing Xu Ke facing a life-threatening situation, Li Fan, as his companion spirit beast, suddenly awakened the memories in his bloodline and displayed [Celestial Omen Profound Light] to save him.
As a result, Li Fan became aware of his identity as the strange bird he possessed.
Celestial Omen Profound Bird.
The strength of the Celestial Omen Bird itself was not particularly powerful, but it possessed an ability that made other exotic beasts and even cultivators extremely envious, something they all wished to possess.
That ability was to condense and enhance one's luck.
The talk of luck was not ethereal; it was a real existence.
Some cultivators, with exceptional talent and temperament, might fall short of a bit of luck and eventually fail on their path, dying with regret.
The Celestial Omen Bird could help its chosen one reverse their fate.
Moreover, as the Celestial Omen Bird's strength continued to grow, this luck-enhancing ability would also become stronger.
In the end, it could even transform from "changing luck" to "changing destiny."
This was what [Celestial Omen in Me] meant.
The master of the Celestial Omen Bird was the son of destiny.
Encountering good fortune and miraculous encounters were all ordinary things.
"No wonder that skinny bamboo pole is so eager to catch me."
"It turns out that the strange bird I'm possessing is such a treasure."
"Luck..."
Exhausted, Li Fan forcefully opened his eyes, attempting to use the recently awakened divine ability.
Looking towards Xu Ke, a purple-golden light soared from his heavenly spirit.
Although there were one or two black smoke tendrils swirling around him at the moment, they couldn't conceal the noble aura of the purple-golden light.
"Huh? This kid..."
"It turns out that good fortune accompanies the worthy. It seems that I was overly self-righteous."
"And he even consumed so much energy."
Frustrated, Li Fan, in his anger, bit Xu Ke hard.
However, due to being too weak, it was as if he were scratching an itch; it didn't hurt at all.
At the moment, Xu Ke, who was desperately trying to escape, didn't pay any attention to it.
This was because behind him, the vigilant Song Yang was about to catch up.
Just as Xu Ke was exhausted, on the verge of despair, he suddenly saw not far ahead a bewildered Cyan Phoenix.
Underneath it seemed to be the corpse of its original owner.
Seeing this, Xu Ke felt joy in his heart.
He swiftly approached the Cyan Phoenix, embraced it with both hands, and mounted it.
At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Xiao Qing, let's go!"
Surprisingly, the Cyan Phoenix instinctively spread its wings.
With a gentle flap, it soared into the sky, high above the clouds.
