Chapter 120 Xuanyin Bird

After Su Yu obtained the Illusory Spirit Stone, he prepared to head to the last destination for collecting Materials.

Soon, Su Yu brought Su Ling'er to the edge of a cliff.

This time, what Su Yu was looking for was the Hanging Cliff Branch.

Just as the name suggests, this item typically grows beneath cliffs, and its formation conditions are extremely stringent.

Not only must the Spiritual Qi in the area be abundant, but a Mystic Yin Bird must also live there for the Hanging Cliff Branch to form.

This Spirit Yao is called the Mystic Yin Bird, a very rare Spirit Yao.

Su Yu had investigated for a while before finding this place, and the two of them arrived at the cliff's edge.

He sensed that there were still people nearby, which surprised him. People still come to this place?

Su Yu scanned the distance and noticed a few villages. The people in these villages were mostly martial artists, practicing the Martial Dao Cultivation Technique that Su Yu had learned in the Mortal world before.

For them, these Cultivation Techniques had a limit; even if Cultivated to the extreme, they could only contend with Qi Refining Early Stage Cultivators.

Encountering a Qi Refining Middle Stage Cultivator meant they were completely helpless.

He hadn't expected there to be two or three villages here. This place was very far from other populated areas.

Given their situation, it was impossible for them to ever leave.

Su Yu also looked at this village. He had thought there might be something unique, but he found nothing different, other than it having a more developed Martial Dao than a Mortal village.

Su Yu also saw them using the flesh and blood of fierce beasts for Body Tempering. This method indeed had some effect.

Su Yu discovered that some people within had Spiritual Roots, the best possessing Three Spiritual Roots, but there was no one to guide them.

However, he wasn't going to meddle and go teach them immortal Cultivation knowledge.

He would leave once he had retrieved his items.

Su Yu arrived at the location of the Mystic Yin Bird, and he also saw the Hanging Cliff Branch.

Although the Mystic Yin Bird is rare, it doesn't have much value; at most, it's for collection.

Su Yu didn't care about the Mystic Yin Bird. Don't let its name make you think it's impressive or good-looking.

On the contrary, this bird looks very strange, with two asymmetrical eyes, one eye up and one eye down, which made him quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, its cries were unpleasant, and its colors were red and green.

Although rare, if Su Yu were to bring it back, anyone who didn't recognize it would laugh at him for keeping such a bird.

However, Su Yu had heard that in ancient times, the Mystic Yin Bird seemed to have some special uses.

He should have asked Yun Nan before; he probably knew something about the Mystic Yin Bird. Never mind, he'll ask Yun Nan next time he gets a chance. Let's not worry about it for now.

Su Ling'er looked at the Mystic Yin Bird before them. "Wow, this bird is so ugly."

Meanwhile, not far from Su Yu, a group of people was being chased by a fierce tiger.

The running group looked at the Tiger Yao behind them. "Captain, we're in trouble this time. I didn't expect to provoke this Tiger Yao."

"It's too difficult for us to deal with it. If we run further, it's a cliff."

Xiang Kun looked at the fierce tiger behind him and knew that this time, they were in grave danger. One slip-up and they would be completely wiped out.

These people could not fall here; their families were still waiting in the village for them to return from hunting.

If they all perished here, it would take too long for the village to train another team.

If fierce beasts were to attack the village again, the village's resistance would not be so easy.

The running group saw the Tiger Yao about to catch up. "Captain, what do we do? Running further is a dead end; it's a cliff ahead."

"Why don't we fight this Tiger Yao? We're going to die anyway, what if we win?"

The others nodded in agreement. After all, there was no road ahead, and running further would be futile.

Xiang Kun knew that fighting this Tiger Yao had a chance of winning, but they would also suffer heavy losses, making it no different from complete annihilation.

Xiang Kun looked at the cliff ahead, took a deep breath, and realized this was the only way. At least it could ensure the safety of his other teammates.

"Alright, listen to me," Xiang Kun then explained his plan.

After listening, a few people said, "No, Captain, I disagree. If someone has to be sacrificed, it should be me."

"You must return safely. You are the strongest in our village; nothing can happen to you."

The others also said, "Let me go, Captain. It's just that you, Captain, cannot go."

Xiang Kun looked at them. "You don't need to say anymore. If I say I'm going, I'm going. Can you temporarily contend with this Yao Beast?"

"Can you ensure that you can 100% take this Tiger Yao down the cliff with you?"

After hearing this, everyone lowered their heads in silence.

"You still have family waiting for you in the village."

Xiang Kun patted their shoulders.

"Alright, go back and help me take care of my family. Don't let them be bullied."

They looked up. "Don't worry, Captain, we will take good care of your family."

"If anyone dares to bully them, they'll have to step over our bodies first."

Xiang Kun also saw that their spirits were low. "Alright, cheer up. Now, just follow the plan I just outlined."

Su Yu had just retrieved the Hanging Cliff Grass. After storing it in his spatial ring, Su Yu saw the situation of Xiang Kun and his group.

Su Ling'er saw this. "Should we help them? It looks like they're about to be eaten by that Tiger Yao."

Su Yu shook his head. "Let's watch. I've discovered something interesting."

Su Yu looked at Xiang Kun among the group and then at the position of the cliff beneath their feet.

Is this what they call fate? What a coincidence.

Su Ling'er didn't know what would happen next and just watched the people in front.

At the edge of the cliff, Xiang Kun was temporarily contending with the Tiger Yao.

The others were providing cover for him.

Xiang Kun had already sustained considerable injuries during the struggle.

But he still hadn't found an opportunity. Xiang Kun knew that if this continued, he wouldn't be able to hold on.

He could only risk it if things still didn't work out in the end.

But in the ensuing struggle, the Tiger Yao swiped with a claw.

Xiang Kun saw this and finally found his chance. Now was the time.

Xiang Kun flashed and moved in front of the Tiger Yao, using his body to restrain it.

Immediately, Xiang Kun looked at the others beside him. "Quick, act now, don't hesitate! I won't be able to hold on much longer!"

Seeing this, the others could only, with heavy hearts, work together to push both the Tiger Yao and Xiang Kun off the cliff.

Although the Tiger Yao struggled desperately, Xiang Kun was determined to die with it, holding it tightly and refusing to let go.

Just as Xiang Kun was about to lose his grip, both of them plunged down the cliff below.
