Gu Yang hovered in midair, watching the Flame Spirit Eagle rush toward him.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted.
In that instant, he noticed something unusual—
The flame-like feathers atop the eagle’s head briefly shifted color.
From fiery red… to a fleeting shade of dark azure.
“Azure-feathered crown… could this Flame Spirit Eagle carry a trace of the ancient Azure Saint Eagle’s bloodline?” Gu Yang speculated.
He had studied the world’s encyclopedias thoroughly, memorizing every detail.
Among the legendary ancient beasts, only the Azure Saint Eagle bore such azure crown feathers.
His guess was highly possible.
If this eagle truly carried that bloodline…
It would be a priceless gain.
A smile tugged at Gu Yang’s lips.
The Flame Spirit Eagle, seeing Gu Yang ignore it and even smile arrogantly, grew furious.
It was the strongest beast of this vast mountain range.
Never had it suffered such humiliation!
It would teach this insolent human a lesson.
Hiss!
Flames surged higher from its body, so intense they seemed to melt space itself.
Gu Yang’s mouth curved upward.
This beast is emotional. Time to use a little trick.
He stood calmly, unmoving.
Nearby, several Baoyuan Realm cultivators had ventured deep into the range to hunt beasts.
Suddenly, a terrifying bird cry echoed.
They trembled, dropping to the ground in fear.
When nothing happened, they cautiously looked up—
And froze.
“Look! The Flame Spirit Eagle!”
“Yuanhai tenth peak! Too terrifying!”
“If it sees us, we’re dead!”
“Wait… beneath it—someone’s there!”
“There really is someone! Could a Yuanhai powerhouse be trying to tame it?”
“Impossible! The eagle’s speed surpasses flying vessels. Even Yuanhai tenth peak experts can’t touch a feather!”
“Look! It’s attacking that man!”
“At that speed… he’s doomed!”
From afar, they could only glimpse Gu Yang’s silhouette.
He concealed his aura, so they couldn’t gauge his realm.
But the eagle’s massive form was unmistakable.
As it dove at terrifying speed, they believed Gu Yang’s death certain.
The eagle itself hesitated.
Why did this human stand still?
Could he not see the attack coming?
It puzzled the beast, but it didn’t care.
It would swallow him whole.
Time raced.
The eagle closed in, excitement flashing in its eyes.
It opened its beak wide—ready to devour.
But Gu Yang suddenly lifted his head, smiling slyly.
“You’ve taken the bait.”
A surge of unimaginable blood energy erupted.
Gu Yang’s hand shot out, grasping at the eagle.
Screech!
Shock filled the eagle’s eyes.
This human… was not simple!
It tried to veer away, but Gu Yang’s speed was unmatched.
He seized its wing.
“Release! Release!”
The eagle panicked.
Its wing was locked in his grip, strength overwhelming.
It uttered crude human-like sounds, begging to be freed.
Gu Yang only smiled.
With a pull, he dragged the massive body closer.
Then his left fist slammed down.
Boom!
The force of a dragon exploded.
His punch struck the eagle’s chest, shaking its body violently.
Its head reeled, nearly fainting.
Were it not for its beastly resilience, that punch would have killed it outright.
Even so, the eagle suffered terribly.
“You… no… hit!”
It forced out broken human words, pleading.
“Submit to me. Form a master-servant blood contract.” Gu Yang’s voice was calm.
The eagle’s eyes widened in terror.
Its wings thrashed wildly, desperate to break free.
“You still don’t understand.” Gu Yang smiled faintly.
Another punch crashed down.
The eagle reeled, nearly unconscious.
“No… beg!”
It cried pitifully, but Gu Yang ignored it.
Another punch landed, forcing blood from its beak.
“Without submission, only death awaits.”
His words rang cold.
The eagle’s pride wavered.
It was a noble Yuanhai tenth peak beast.
How could it bow to a mere Baoyuan first-level human?
Yet Gu Yang gave it no time.
He raised his fist again—this time infused with terrifying Fist Intent.
The eagle’s eyes widened in horror.
If that punch landed, it would die.
“Stop! Stop! I… submit!”
It cried out, finally forming a full sentence.
Gu Yang halted his fist.
“Then begin.”
The eagle trembled, staring at the suspended fist.
Though unwilling, it dared not defy him.
A strange power burst from its body.
