Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 630: Chapter 254: Life-and-Death Chase

”Boom!”

The giant eagle’s aura erupted, followed by a piercing chill and waves of Spiritual Qi sweeping in with the air currents. The giant talons beneath the giant eagle glowed brightly and darted forward.

White remained in place, feeling the Spiritual Qi like a raging wind, unmoved.

Yesterday, in that strange mountain gully of the Great Mountain, it endured a day of peculiar fierce wind, and compared to the current swirling of the giant eagle, the difference was like heaven and earth, having no impact on it.

Conversely, with the blessing of the Divine Eagle Skill, White, despite still being somewhat smaller in size, was able to hold its own.

Similarly, the iron claws beneath White’s feet suddenly lit up, meeting the giant talons of the approaching giant eagle.

”Clang--clang--clang--”

The two pairs of talons collided, instantly creating a collision of powerful Spiritual Qi in the high skies above the Great Mountain, directly affecting the direction of the air currents. For a moment, the fierce winds raged, and Xu Ran, grasping the feathers behind White, had his clothes flutter noisily in the airflow.

”Bang!!”

The probing between the two did not last long and ended the moment they made contact.

With a violent sound, White’s figure retreated dozens of meters, while the giant eagle greedily held its ground, watching White.

At this moment, Xu Ran understood why the giant eagle intercepted White halfway.

Given White’s current cultivation, it wasn’t a match for the giant eagle. Yet, relying on its Divine Techniques, in the first confrontation, it only slightly fell behind.

Seeing its one strike unsuccessful, the giant eagle immediately gathered Spiritual Qi around it again, madly flapping a pair of wings large enough to block out the sun. The air currents in the high sky also converged with the flapping, gradually forming an air arc that fiercely rushed toward White.

Having just stabilized, White felt a violent aura suddenly appear in front, instantly retracting its wings. The surrounding airflow seemed to pause as its figure swiftly plummeted.

As White just began to fall, that visually perceptible air arc swept over Xu Ran’s head, with the space it passed through causing the air to explode and accompanied by a scorching sensation.

Seeing this, Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, White’s quick reaction prevented the air arc from hitting either them or White, which would have resulted in severe injury.

Although White’s cultivation was inferior to the giant eagle’s, it wasn’t one to be bullied without retaliation. It couldn’t just endure an attack without fighting back!

Facing the giant eagle’s fierce onslaught, White steadied its form, circulating the Innate Qi within its body and gathering it at its wings, simultaneously driving the Spiritual Qi. The powerful Spiritual Qi roared continuously within, finally settling in its pristine wings, under the sunlight, revealing a faint golden glow.

Filled with fighting spirit, White lunged straight at the giant eagle.

The giant eagle, though inherently powerful and more experienced than White, saw at a glance how fierce White’s current offensive was. However, White’s speed was equally rapid, and by the time it reacted, White’s silhouette had already appeared right in front of it.

The giant eagle could only instinctively mobilize all its Spiritual Qi, with its wings suddenly appearing in front to shield its entire body.

”Boom!”

The two auras clashed again, with White enveloped in a faint golden hue, crashing heavily against the giant eagle’s wings. For a time, a tremendous booming sound echoed throughout the high sky of the Great Mountain, and at the contact point, a formidable blast of force erupted, causing even the air not far away to exhibit slight spatial distortion.

Under such a terrifying blast, the giant eagle’s body was directly and forcibly repelled by White’s wings, tumbling awkwardly in the high skies of the Great Mountain, with feathers continuously falling off, coming to a gradual halt a hundred meters away.

Seated on White’s back, Xu Ran’s face lit up with joy, astonished that White’s offensive could be so fierce, able to push the giant eagle back several hundred meters, looking extremely disheveled in the process.

”Good, well done, White! As expected of the sky’s overlord born from Innate Qi, defeating the strong with the weak!” Xu Ran couldn’t help but cheer for White.

Just as the giant eagle, barely recovered from being repelled, finally steadied itself, it felt a warm flow over its wings. Looking closely, it discovered its wings were bleeding, causing its body to shudder.

It hadn’t anticipated that this Peregrine Falcon with significantly weaker aura could repulse it, and even make it bleed, and most importantly, it was carrying a baby on its back!

However, the fact that the raptor before it could injure it meant that the Divine Techniques on its body were immensely strong. If it could possess them, it believed it could truly become the overlord of the Great Mountain.

At this moment, the giant eagle’s eyes brimmed with even stronger fighting spirit and undisguised greed.

Xu Ran, who had just felt a surge of excitement, noticed the look in the giant eagle’s eyes and immediately sensed that things were amiss.

”White, it seems like it covets the Divine Techniques on you.”

Just after he spoke, Xu Ran sensed White’s aura starting to weaken, clearly indicating the method used to repel the giant eagle hundreds of meters had also taken a significant toll on White. Yet, fortunately, it could still maintain flight in the high sky.

”White, are you okay?” Xu Ran asked worriedly.

Hearing this, White raised its proud head, nodded, and immediately the airflow surrounded it. The previously somewhat disheveled feathers returned to their sleek state at this moment.

Xu Ran realized that White intended to use strategic evasion. If it couldn’t confront directly, it would respond from the side. In terms of speed, White wasn’t lacking at all. Realizing this, Xu Ran instinctively grasped the feathers on White’s back tightly.
