Chapter 578: Chapter 306: Cruel

“`

Boom, boom, boom!

The terrifying hurricane, carrying threads of the Law of Wind, barraged forward, and struck directly upon the energy shield outside of the Cangqiong without Song Chi choosing to evade.

Instantly, the five-colored light shield outside the Cangqiong dimmed significantly, but it wasn’t long before the shield restored itself to normal, giving the impression that it had never been attacked.

While the Cangqiong charged directly at the male Storm Giant Eagle, the eight cruisers of the Barbarian Feng squadron also took immediate action, rushing towards a cliff tens of thousands of meters away not far from them.

There, over twenty Storm Giant Eagles were perched.

...

Among these Storm Giant Eagles, aside from five Third-Rank female ones, the rest were all fledglings and chicks.

The target of the Barbarian Feng squadron was not only the football-sized Storm Mica Stone in the giant eagle’s nest but also these fledglings.

The Storm Giant Eagle’s lineage was extremely noble; otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a quantity of Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagles in the entire Storm Continent. Thus, these fledglings were excellent, whether for use as enslaved creatures or for sale.

As they sped along, several cruiser captains of the Barbarian Feng squadron also glanced at the battle above. Upon realizing that the Cangqiong, which was directly colliding with the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle, was hardly at a disadvantage, all of them felt a chill in their hearts.

They knew that even their squadron’s warships, which were fully outfitted with orange warship armor and purple energy shields enhanced to the Fourth Rank limit, had been completely suppressed in all aspects in previous encounters with a Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle. They could only try their best to maneuver about, stalling for time.

By this comparison, the gap between them was immediately apparent.

“Alright, don’t think too much about it. He is one of the legitimate scions of the current generation of the Dinghai Song family; having this combat power is normal!”

Hearing their own captain’s words, the cruiser captains didn’t say much; they had been prepared mentally and were just expressing their amazement for now.

After all, it was not the first time they had seen beings of a similar level.

They remembered that twenty years ago, a battle unfolded outside the Chenxing Yang Continent’s starry skies that few knew of.

Although it was also a cruiser battle, the fallout and shock far surpassed that of a common Zhulu Warship.

In that battle, one side was an Ultimate Cruiser that had prevailed in Holy Star City for hundreds of years, and the challenger was the Sixth Prince of the Chenxing Clan’s current generation.

They remembered that shortly after this prince’s promotion to cruiser captain and Third Rank Guidance Technique, after only a decade of consolidation, he immediately initiated the battle. Although there was no conclusive outcome, everyone present knew that the prince had won.

Had it been only that, it might not have caused such a stir, but after the challenge, that Ultimate Cruiser that had dominated Holy Star City for hundreds of years, on a subsequent exploration in the Alien Star Domain, faced a recently promoted Fourth Rank lifeform with high-level Fourth Rank combat power, enhanced by the rules of a Fourth Rank Floating Land, and killed it head-on.

This alone showed that it wasn’t that the Ultimate Cruiser was weak, but rather that the combat power of the prince’s flagship was too horrifying.

…

In the vault of heaven, the Cangqiong continued entwining with the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle. The [Pure Yang Sword Beam Cannon] also fired intermittently, leaving astonishingly large scratches on the Storm Giant Eagle’s feather wings, which were as sturdy as high-level alloy.

In a certain moment, the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle seemed to notice the movement of the Barbarian Feng squadron below. Intense laws of wind gathered between its wings. A terrifying storm swirled behind it, and concurrently, Song Chi could distinctly feel the speed of the creature surge considerably.

Whoo, whoo, whoo!

With a flap of its wings, the howling hurricane rapidly swept towards the Cangqiong,

This storm, with a diameter exceeding a kilometer and an outer gravity ring extending beyond ten thousand meters, did not move Song Chi.

After the brief skirmishes that just occurred, he estimated that this Storm Giant Eagle’s grasp of the Law of Wind was roughly around 5%. Such a degree of law comprehension, which had not even reached minor accomplishment, posed no great threat to the silver energy shield strengthened to the Fifth Rank.

However, taking advantage of the moment when the Cangqiong was distracted by the hurricane, the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle flapped its wings and was about to blast downwards.

In its eyes, the alien species that dared to disturb its kin behind it deserved to die even more.

But how could Song Chi let it leave so easily?

Several chains imbued with the power of Space Law pierced through and locked the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle that sought to help its kin.

Feeling itself bound, the Storm Giant Eagle continually let out piercing cries. Wind Law once again accumulated on its claws, and together with the Divine Binding Chains, it pounced toward the Cangqiong.

Since he had already employed the [Divine Binding Chains] taken from the Howling Wolf Roaring Tiger, how could Song Chi not anticipate this outcome? Hadn’t the Cangqiong responded similarly when it was bound earlier?

But the present Cangqiong was different from the Furious Battle Mad Lion; the Cangqiong was equipped with red warship armor strengthened to the Fifth Rank. Under the pounce of the Fourth-Rank Storm Giant Eagle’s claws, it did not sustain much damage.

[Warship attacked, current warship armor damaged by 7%, please attend to repairs!]

[“Neutron Star Core Pulse” feature activated, warship armor is slowly repairing.]

Hearing this prompt, Song Chi felt at ease, and at the same time, he secretly thought to himself.
