Only then did Qin Fengming suddenly realize that this place was no different from those dangerous regions outside. Without a doubt, every spirit herb was guarded by a demon beast.
He hurriedly turned around, stopped in a volcanic gap where there was no lava, and faced the direction from which the eagle cry had come. Narrowing his eyes, he observed it carefully. At the same time, he gripped a stack of talismans tightly in both hands.
Just as Qin Fengming finished preparing, a massive surge of spiritual power erupted in the distance. A fiery-red sphere suddenly appeared within Qin Fengming's sight.
As the sphere drew closer and closer, Qin Fengming saw it clearly. The red sphere was undoubtedly a mass of flames. Wrapped within those flames was a gigantic red demon bird with a wingspan of more than ten zhang.
The demon bird seemed to be covered in flames from head to toe. Once it spread its wings, its speed became astonishingly fast. Even though there were no Restrictive Spells prohibiting flight here, Qin Fengming would still find it difficult to escape its pursuit.
The instant he got a clear look at the demon bird, Qin Fengming was terribly alarmed.
Qin Fengming had detailed information about this demon bird in the jade slip he carried. It was called the Blazing Eagle. It greatly favored scorching environments and was normally extremely difficult to encounter outside.
The Blazing Eagle was ferocious beyond compare and exceptionally fond of fighting. It also possessed an extremely strong sense of territory. Any demon beast or cultivator that intruded into its domain would inevitably suffer its fierce attacks. Usually, it would fight to the death.
This demon bird had already reached the level of a Grade 6 demon beast. Grade 6 was equivalent to the mid Core
