#606 - Chapter 604: Young Clan Elder
The Void Spirit Bird tribe has a total of five elders:
Gold, Silver, Bronze, Iron, and Small.
Their ranking isn't based on strength, but on age. It's just a coincidence that Silver Elder Yu is the second strongest.
If they were ranked by strength, Small Elder would be the strongest.
Its ability, "Void God," can perfectly transform it into the deity worshipped by the tribe, granting it all of that deity's power and methods.
Silver Elder Yu's Source Divinity was also inspired by it.
Most importantly, other Void Spirit Birds can only launch mental attacks in their void state. If they want to launch abilities or physical attacks, they must exit the void state and expose their bodies to the enemy.
But it doesn't have to.
"Mo Yi, you trespassed into our hatching grounds, slaughtering innocent lives of our Void Spirit Bird tribe! Your crimes deserve death!"
Suddenly, a dazzling blue light flashed in mid-air, gradually coalescing into a huge and sharp blue claw mark!
This mysterious and powerful claw imprint seemed to come from the endless abyss, carrying world-destroying power, and pounced fiercely at Mo Yi from above with astonishing momentum!
However, facing such a ferocious attack, Mo Yi displayed agility beyond ordinary imagination.
Its figure flashed, drifting erratically like a ghost, and instantly disappeared from its original spot.
The blue claw imprint slammed heavily into empty space, hitting nothing.
Or rather, it did hit something, but it only hit the Void Spirit Birds that were caught in the crossfire.
To Qi Jing's surprise, the Void Spirit Birds were completely fine after being hit, as if the claw imprint was just a special effect.
Friendly fire on?
Turned off?
"Small Elder, come out if you have the guts!"
Mo Yi transformed into countless shadows scattered in various places, uttering its first sentence of the day.
But the Small Elder, hidden somewhere, didn't show itself, and continued to launch its attacks.
As Qi Jing searched, dense blue feathers condensed in the air again, shooting towards every small black dot that Mo Yi had transformed into at an even faster speed.
However, Mo Yi wasn't to be outdone. It had already set up a curtain made of shadows on the central round platform, completely disregarding the fact that its split shadows were being hit.
"Small Elder, if you don't want your new chieftain to be killed by me, then show yourself!"
Mo Yi knew that it couldn't win against the Small Elder, who could attack reality without exiting the void state, in a closed space, so it directly used a threatening tactic.
As expected, the Void Spirit Birds arranged here all had a strong sense of loyalty to the new chieftain, and this Small Elder slowly revealed its figure.
It was at the largest light source on the ceiling!
Presumably, the Small Elder had moved to this place that restrained Mo Yi during the battle just now, preparing to limit the opponent's attack.
"Mo Yi, what do you want?"
Mo Yi's voice came from the black curtain:
"What do I want? Of course, it's your hatching grounds! As your old neighbor, I've been very envious of this place that can enhance the physique of newborns!"
"Just for this? Are you stupid? The hatching grounds, judging from the name, only work on eggs! Do you Shadow Weasels even have eggs?!"
"Bullshit, don't give me excuses, do you think I'm stupid? How could such a place have such outrageous restrictions! Quickly hand over the thing that controls this place, or I'll kill your new chieftain right now!"
As Mo Yi spoke, the black curtain surrounding the new chieftain and Bronze Elder Yu shrank, scaring the Small Elder into shouting anxiously:
"Stop!"
Suddenly, its eyes glazed over for a moment, but it was too anxious to care, and continued to negotiate:
"How about this, you send all the pregnant Shadow Weasels over every year, and we'll help you nurture them. We really can't give you this control."
The Void Spirit Birds could brainwash newborn creatures and turn them into their puppets.
This way, they could save the small chieftain and slowly disintegrate the Shadow Weasels, which could be described as killing two birds with one stone.
However, Mo Yi was no slouch when it came to playing tricks, and it refused:
"Who knows what kind of mental suggestions you'll make to our newborns? No, give it to me now!"
As it spoke, it shrank the black curtain even further, scaring Qi Jing, who was secretly watching the show from the side, into almost taking action.
"I'll give it to you! This token, as long as you hold this token, you can control the formation here and nourish the newborns."
The Small Elder took out a golden feather token, preparing to send it to Mo Yi with a claw formed from mental energy.
"Stop! Put the token on the ground first, and then tell me what your new chieftain is doing!"
The moment Mo Yi saw the token, it knew that it was real, and it was certain that it would fall into its hands, so it relaxed slightly, preparing to hear what was preventing the Third Elder from taking action.
Looking at Mo Yi, who was still holding its weakness in its hands, the Small Elder helplessly explained:
"Our small chieftain was born with a defect. It should have been born two hundred years ago, but the depletion of energy in its body prevented it from breaking out of its shell. So we used two hundred years of energy to nourish it.
Now, it has successfully broken out of its shell today, but the born it is still much weaker than other birds, and its body is extremely depleted. If we don't intervene, it will die within a year.
So our Third Elder activated the great formation here, at the cost of not being able to nourish newborns for three years, to replenish our small chieftain's body.
Mo Yi, this matter has nothing to do with you, take the Sky Feather Token and leave quickly!"
So that's how it is.
No wonder that old bird died two and a half years ago before the child was born.
So its son has a problem!
Mo Yi chuckled:
"Heh, if anyone's leaving, it should be you. This place will be mine from now on!"
The Small Elder looked at the Sky Feather Token on the ground and said in a distressed tone:
"What exactly do you want here? You can't even fly, are you not going down anymore?"
"Who said I can't fly? Can't my shadow turn into wings? Can't I trade with humans? Hurry up and leave, I'm happy today, I'll let you off the hook! After your small chieftain has replenished its body, get out of here quickly."
Mo Yi used its shadow to pick up the Sky Feather Token from the ground, pulled it into the curtain, and prepared to examine it closely.
But just as its claws touched the token, a blue spike shot out from it, piercing fiercely into its head.
In an instant, Mo Yi only felt dizzy, and the scene in front of it became blurred and unclear, as if the whole world had become distorted, and it could not control its body.
Finally, it took the bait!
Sensing that the soul power left on the token had been triggered, the Small Elder decisively activated its Source Divinity hidden around it, turning it into countless ripples sweeping towards the black curtain.
You think our mental attacks can't hit you because you're fast, but we can hit you when you're complacent.
Hahaha!
The last leg of a journey marks the end, that's exactly what a stupid weasel like you is!
