BXBX NOVEL Chapter 124: In The Skies
\'Phew! Let\'s just hope this fucked doesn\'t bring out it\'s lightning. I still haven\'t perfect that properly.\'
Ying Yue took a deep breath as she twisted the dagger inside the wound, making it even worse but the problem was, the Thunderclaw Roc wouldn\'t die in such a wound, not in short time atleast.
So, a second dagger was thursted in the same wound as Ying Yue hung high up the skies only with the help of her daggers. The rapid wind currents slammed into her weak body, making her almost fall but she held on.
The Thunderclaw Roc also tried use its talons to get rid of her but it didn\'t bour any fruits as it couldn\'t see her properly. It continued to thrash around in pain as it began to crash down.
\'What to do?\'
Ying Yue contemplated as she basically made a whole opening on the bird\'s body, causing the dark blood to wash over her and a few body parts also dropped from it\'s inside. It was gruesome sight that she was very familiar with.
In the end, she knew this wouldn\'t work so she abandoned her site of damage and used the sharp daggers to climb the hard surface of the Thunderclaw Roc\'s body.
Many times she almost got caught in the flapping of the enormous wings. But she persisted, despite the growing weakness, almost dry reserves of Qi and dangling high in the sky on a Tier 4 Spiritual Creature. The height was enough to scare many and if she fell, not even her bones would be left.
\'I need to show Master my worth.\'
She gritted her teeth and continued to climb upwards on the Thunderclaw Roc\'s body, it\'s hard skin was now tough enough that the daggers weren\'t able to cut them easily.
Suddenly, The Thunderclaw Roc began to rotate as it straightened it\'s wings. Ying Yue thought it had decided to go to the ground but she regretted her thoughts instantly.
The Thunderclaw Roc flapped its wings once again, this time very fast and with much more force. The feathers clinging onto its wings shot from its body, towards itself.
Ying Yue\'s eyes widened at the bird\'s actions and almost couldn\'t believe it. But she didn\'t get the time to even think as several feathers came at her almost instantly.
\'I\'ll be damned!\'
Ying Yue gritted her teeth and stopped climbing. She thursted one dagger inside the tough body of the mighty bird and used her other dagger to deflect the incoming feathers. Although they weren\'t coated in Lightning like before, they were still dangerous and more than enough to cause her death.
Her heart began to race as she dodged and deflected the incoming feathers, feeling her whole arm going numb and veins almost breaking apart as if they were weak threads.
Still, she held on. She had seen and experienced worse. She continued to remind herself of same thing over and over again.
Finally, the barrage of feathers stopped and Ying Yue finally had a moment to take some breaths. However, a sudden pain from her lower side caused her to groan and look down at her belly, which had a small part of the feather embedded inside.
"Agh! Damnation!!"
She cursed thrusted her dagger beside other one as he took out the feather, causing her blood to ooze out from there.
\'I don\'t have much time.\'
The thought crossed her mind as she once again resumed her climb, despite feeling every moment that she would fall. But she held on and soon reached the top.
She took deep breaths as she clutched her belly with her one hand. Then, her gaze went down and she realised something.
They were very close to the location of the another Tier 4 Spiritual Creature and at the rate the two of them were falling, it wouldn\'t be long before they reach it.
Ying Yue sighed and went towards the neck area of Thunderclaw Roc while keeping her body close to its body. It was rotating a lot in hopes that she would fall down but she was like a cockroach who refused to die.
She took one step at a time and soon reached the neck which glistened under the bright sunlight. It was the perfect place to strike as it was the place where nerves and veins going towards the brain convulsed.
The Thunderclaw Roc seemed to have lost its consciousness because of the rapid loss of blood and began to fall like a giant meteorite from the skies to the charred ground where the other Tier 4 Spiritual Creature was probably waiting for it.
Ying Yue almost lost her footing because of the sudden changes but she held her dagger\'s hilt just in time. She then began to thrust her dagger\'s deep in its neck as it became a complete mess with dark blood pouring out like a fountain and getting dispersed in the winds.
\'I-I killed it.\'
Ying Yue was feeling pain all over the body as her vision turned blurry because of the dark blood. But she still saw how close they were to the ground. A few seconds and then would land near the Tier 4 Spiritual Creature, waiting for a nice feast.
She checked her Qi reserves and found it completely empty. But then her Dantian shook as her body absorbed some of the Thunderclaw Roc\'s Qi in her body.
Her eyes widened but she didn\'t check what happened. All she knew was that she had enough Qi to use her Shadow Step one last time. And she didn\'t hesitate to use it as her body dissolved into her shadows.
Just after that, the enormous body of Thunderclaw Roc slammed onto the ground, making a giant crater and shaking whole Designated zone.
