Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 257 Life and Death Chase

"boom!"

The giant eagle's breath burst out, and with it came waves of biting cold, as well as waves of spiritual energy swept in with the air currents. The giant claws under the giant eagle's feet emitted light and suddenly swooped forward.

Xiaobai stayed where he was, feeling the spiritual energy like a strong wind, without moving an inch.

Yesterday it was in the strange mountain stream, experiencing a day of torture from the strange strong wind. Compared with the airflow stirred by the giant eagle now, the airflow was in the sky and on the ground, and it was not affected at all.

On the contrary, Xiaobai has the blessing of the Divine Eagle Technique, so even though there is still some difference in size, he can still hold his own.

Similarly, the iron claws under Xiaobai's feet suddenly lit up, meeting the giant claws of the attacking giant eagle.

"Ding--ding--"

The two claws collided, and suddenly, in the sky above the mountains, two powerful spiritual energies collided, directly affecting the direction of the airflow in the sky. For a moment, a strong wind raged, and Xu Ran, who was holding onto the feathers behind Xiaobai, had his clothes whistling under the influence of this airflow.

"boom!!"

The temptation between the two did not last long, and it ended at the moment of contact.

With a loud noise, Xiaobai's figure retreated dozens of meters, while the giant eagle stayed in place, looking at Xiaobai greedily.

At this time, Xu Ran also understood why the giant eagle intercepted Xiaobai halfway.

With Xiaobai's current level of cultivation, he was no match for the giant eagle, but he relied on his magical powers and was only slightly disadvantaged in the first confrontation.

Seeing that its attack failed, the giant eagle gathered the spiritual energy around it again, and flapped its pair of flesh wings that were strong enough to block out the sun wildly. The air currents in the sky also gathered together with the flapping of the wings, and gradually, an arc of air was formed, which suddenly attacked Xiaobai.

Xiaobai, who had just stopped, felt a sudden strong breath in front of him. He instantly tightened his wings, and the airflow around him seemed to stop, and his body fell down rapidly.

When Xiaobai just fell, the visible arc of air just passed over Xu Ran's head. At the same time, the air exploded where the arc passed, and was accompanied by a burning sensation.

Seeing this, Xu Ran immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Xiaobai reacted quickly, otherwise, if the arc of energy hit him or Xiaobai, they would definitely be seriously injured.

Although Xiaobai's cultivation level cannot match that of the giant eagle, he is not someone who will be bullied. He can't just take a beating without fighting back!
Facing the giant eagle's fierce attack, Xiaobai stabilized his body, the innate energy in his body continued to circulate, gathering at his wings, and at the same time driving the spiritual energy. The powerful spiritual energy kept roaring in his body, and finally stayed in the white wings. Under the sunlight, a faint golden light could be seen.

Xiaobai, with fighting spirit in his eyes, rushed straight towards the giant eagle.

The giant eagle was already very powerful, and had more experience than Xiaobai. It could see at a glance how fierce Xiaobai's attack was. However, Xiaobai was just as fast. When it reacted, Xiaobai's figure had already appeared in front of it.

The giant eagle could only subconsciously mobilize all the spiritual energy in its body, and its wings suddenly appeared in front of it to protect its entire body.

"boom!"

The two auras collided again, and Xiaobai's whole body was covered with a faint golden color, and he heavily slammed into the wings of the giant eagle. For a moment, a huge roar resounded throughout the mountains and high schools. A powerful gust of wind erupted at the point of contact between the two, and even a trace of space distortion appeared in the air not far away.

Under such a terrible strong wind, the giant eagle's body was actually knocked back by Xiaobai's wings. It rolled around in the sky high in the mountains in a panic, with feathers falling continuously, until it slowly stopped a hundred meters away.

Xu Ran, who was sitting behind Xiaobai, was overjoyed when he saw this. He had not expected that Xiaobai's attack would be so fierce that it could directly knock the giant eagle back hundreds of meters, and it looked extremely embarrassed.

"Well done, Xiaobai, you are worthy of being the sky overlord hatched by the innate energy, and you defeat the strong with the weak!" Xu Ran couldn't help but cheer for Xiaobai.

The giant eagle that had just been repelled finally stopped and felt a warm current flowing on its wings. Upon closer inspection, it found that its wings were bleeding and its body trembled suddenly.

It had never imagined that a peregrine falcon, whose aura was so much weaker than its own, could actually repel it, not only that, it actually injured and bled. On top of that, it was carrying a baby on its back!

However, the fact that the bird of prey in front of it could injure it meant that its magical power was stronger. As long as he could get it, he believed that he would be able to truly become the overlord of the mountains.

Suddenly, the fighting spirit in the giant eagle's eyes became stronger, and the greed in his eyes became more intense, without any concealment.

Xu Ran, who had just felt a little excited, felt something was wrong when he saw the giant eagle's eyes.

"Xiaobai, it seems that your magical powers are coveted by it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ran felt Xiaobai's breath gradually weakening. It was obvious that the method of repelling the giant eagle hundreds of meters just now also made Xiaobai pay a heavy price, but fortunately, he was still able to keep flying at high altitude.

"Xiaobai, are you okay?" Xu Ran asked worriedly.

Upon hearing this, Xiaobai raised his head proudly and nodded. Then, air flow surrounded his body, and his feathers, which were originally a little messy, became smooth again.

Xu Ran knew that Xiaobai was going to use a roundabout tactic. Since he couldn't confront him head-on, he would deal with it from the side. In terms of speed, Xiaobai was not inferior at all. Xu Ran, who figured it out, subconsciously grabbed the feathers on Xiaobai's back.

As expected, the next moment, the scene in front of Xu Ran began to change rapidly. At the same time, Xu Ran still felt that the giant eagle's cold breath was always following behind him.

Suddenly, a falcon and an eagle were caught in a chase.

Xiaobai is indeed a peregrine falcon that has been trained in strange mountain streams. Even though his cultivation is insufficient, the giant eagle still cannot catch up with him in terms of speed. Of course, the previous attack injured the giant eagle's wings and also reduced its speed a lot.

"Be careful!!"

Xu Ran, who was flying, suddenly felt several terrifying auras coming from behind him. Turning around, he saw several wind blades rushing towards them. The speed was so fast that sonic booms were heard in the air.

Xiaobai, who also felt the terrifying aura, used the Divine Eagle Technique to flexibly change his body shape in the sky and easily avoided the wind blade shot by the giant eagle. Xu Ran also tightly grasped the feathers on Xiaobai's back to prevent himself from falling.

"boom!!"

"boom!!"

"boom!!"

The wind blade that Xiaobai successfully dodged fell on a mountain not far away. For a moment, yellow sand flew everywhere, and the originally lush mountain became vaguely bare. There was no doubt that it was all the work of the giant eagle.

Seeing this, Xu Ran felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. Fortunately, Xiaobai dodged it. Otherwise, if he was hit, he would be seriously injured and might even lose the ability to resist.

Seeing that his wind blade was dodged, the giant eagle's face showed a gloomy look. He had no means of attack now. Even if he had, he could not get close to the peregrine falcon. Because of the injury to his wings, his speed slowed down. If this continued, the prey in his mouth would fly away, and the Divine Eagle Technique would also leave him.

If we fail today, it will be even more difficult to find a peregrine falcon in the future.

The giant eagle was a little annoyed, staring at Xiaobai with its eyes. Suddenly, it saw someone who had been ignored by it.

"It seems that the human behind you is very important to you. Since I can't deal with you, I should be able to deal with the baby behind you. I can't do two things at once!" The giant eagle set his sights on Xu Ran.

Suddenly, Xu Ran clearly felt that the temperature around his body dropped suddenly, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Following the cold feeling, his sight collided with the giant eagle.

"Not good!"

Xu Ran said secretly.

It was obvious that he was being targeted by the giant eagle. With his current strength, even if he was on Xiaobai's back, he could not guarantee his safety.

The reason why he was able to dodge the giant eagle's attacks many times before was largely because the giant eagle focused its target on Xiaobai and ignored him. Now, with its eyes focused on him, the pressure he faced was even greater, especially in an unfamiliar high-altitude area.

Xiaobai, Xu Ran's spiritual pet, also felt the change in Xu Ran's mood. It was obvious that the only thing that could cause his master's emotions to fluctuate so drastically was the powerful enemy in front of him, the giant eagle.

Sure enough, when Xiaobai looked at the giant eagle, he suddenly became furious, the air around him began to riot unconsciously, and the spiritual energy continued to gather behind it, forming a spiritual energy protection shield around Xu Ran.

Xiaobai discovered that the giant eagle had set its sights on the master behind it, something it could not forgive. Even if it died here, it had to protect Xu Ran.

Xu Ran felt the spiritual energy around him gathering towards him, gradually forming a protective shield. He also knew what Xiaobai wanted to do. At the same time, Xu Ran could also feel that Xiaobai's speed had slowed down compared to before.

"Xiaobai, be careful!" Xu Ran reminded.

Xiaobai nodded.

Since the giant eagle has set its target on Xu Ran, it naturally has to protect him well.

The giant eagle that had been following behind him felt that all the spiritual energy around Xiaobai was converging towards Xu Ran, and a look of joy appeared on his face. This proved that his guess was correct.

Even if Xiaobai used all his spiritual energy to protect Xu Ran, how long could he hold out?
Moreover, Xiaobai's speed also slowed down at this time, and soon the giant eagle came behind him.

"call out!"

Suddenly, the giant eagle flapped its wings violently, and the airflow around it was compressed instantly, as if the space collapsed. The air was instantly sucked away, and at the same time, a sharp wind blade was formed, sweeping towards the protective shield on Xu Ran's body.

Wherever he went, there were bursts of sonic booms, which made the monsters under the mountain have tinnitus. However, Xu Ran was not greatly affected because of the protective shield.

But Xiaobai's situation was not so good. It endured all the sonic booms. Its huge body staggered in the sky and its altitude suddenly dropped by hundreds of meters.

It was precisely because of this descent of hundreds of meters that Xiaobai successfully avoided the wind blade launched by the giant eagle.

Seeing that the attack was ineffective, the giant eagle's eyes flashed and it opened its beak.

"Wow—"

A huge eagle cry sounded above the mountain, and the clouds within a radius of 100 meters were dispersed by the cry, and suddenly the sky was cloudless.

At the foot of the mountain, the branches and leaves of the giant trees tens of meters high began to shake constantly because of the eagle's cry, and most of them became bare.

The river in the mountains was rolling up waves because of the cry. For a moment, the fish monsters in the river were unable to calm down due to the impact of the rolling waves, and were even carried into the air by the waves.

This sonic attack is completely indiscriminate, attacking all living things except itself.

As the main target of the eagle's cry, Xiaobai, who had just fallen hundreds of meters, had no time to dodge and could not dodge, so he could only carry it down.

Suddenly, Xiaobai's body began to shake continuously, and the feathers on his body began to fall off due to the sonic attack. Several golden feathers hidden underneath flashed in the air.

At the same time, the bones in the body began to tremble continuously due to the sound wave attack, as if all the internal organs were about to shift, and it felt like there were ants crawling on the body, and as if thousands of ants were gnawing at the heart.

Although Xu Ran, who was inside the protective shield, was not attacked, he could clearly feel how much pain Xiaobai was in at the moment. He put his hands on Xiaobai's back, and bursts of white light rose from his dantian, and wisps of innate qi began to flow into Xiaobai's body.

The moment the innate energy flowed into Xiaobai's body, an extremely comfortable feeling arose spontaneously, and all the pain was instantly dispelled. Not only that, most of the spiritual energy was also restored.

Xu Ran looked at Xiaobai, thought for a moment, and shook his head.

"We can't go on like this! Even if we have innate energy in our bodies, we can't keep getting beaten up. We're not punching bags!"

Although Xiaobai was injured, Xu Ran was able to recover his spiritual energy and strength through his innate energy, but it couldn't always be like this.

Moreover, judging from the appearance of the giant eagle, the spiritual energy reserves in its body are even more abundant. Perhaps, even though the innate energy in his body has been consumed, the giant eagle's spiritual energy has not been completely consumed.

As a bird of prey, Xiaobai also knew that this was a problem. His strength was not as good as that of the giant eagle, and his foundation was not enough. Moreover, he had to distract himself to protect his master Xu Ran. Even if he wanted to fight to the death, he had to consider the situation of his master Xu Ran.

When Xiaobai was thinking, his eyes suddenly focused and he saw a cliff not far away.

Unexpectedly, they unknowingly came to the cliff where they were learning the art of the Condor Heroes.

"Put the master on the cliff first. The giant eagle's target is me anyway. If you want to obtain the Divine Eagle Technique, you can only obtain it from me."

"The secret technique on the cliff may be able to help the master. With the master's understanding, he may be able to comprehend it in a short time!!"

Anyway, his purpose this time is to send his master Xu Ran to the cliff to learn magical powers. It is enough to accomplish this goal. As for himself, he will just leave it to fate.

Immediately, Xiaobai removed the protective shield covering Xu Ran, poured all the spiritual energy into his body, and at the same time performed the Divine Eagle Technique, rushing to the cliff as fast as possible.

The giant eagle that had been staring at Xiaobai from the sky suddenly felt that most of the spiritual energy in Xiaobai's body had recovered. It was startled at first, its eyes full of shock, and then it became more excited.

It is obvious that this is the magical power of the Divine Eagle Technique. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to imagine what kind of magical power could restore so much spiritual energy in an instant.

If he could obtain the Divine Eagle Technique and learn the means to restore spiritual energy, then let alone the mountains, perhaps he could walk out of this barren land and move towards a wider world.

Just after the excitement, the giant eagle saw the spiritual energy gathering on Xiaobai's body and flying towards the distance.

Seeing the direction Xiaobai left, the giant eagle's eyes focused and realized that it was the cliff where the Divine Eagle Technique was discovered. He also knew that it wanted to put the human behind it on the cliff to eliminate worries, but could he let it do this?

Obviously, no!
