Time passed slowly, and the strange phenomena by the stream had long since disappeared, but Maruwan and Hongyun still stood on the top of the mountain, motionless, quietly blowing the mountain breeze.
Their eyes were slightly closed, as if they were immersed in the most beautiful dream and had not yet woken up.
If Zhu An didn't want to show up, naturally no one would be able to find him. This time, he took advantage of a rare breakthrough opportunity to show the vision to the two little guys.
The promotion process of top creatures coincides with the great road of heaven and earth, and contains infinite mysteries. Even just a glimpse of it from a distance will be of great benefit to the spiritual growth of Marumaru and Hongyun.
The two little guys entered a state of half-dream and half-awake meditation, digesting the invisible insights brought by that startling glance.
Zhu An started his own arrangements.
In the mountains, there are dandelion fruits that ripen instantly, and the white fluff spreads out, like a puff of light spring snow.
A small dandelion umbrella rose up, floated in the air, quietly left Beishan, and soared in the wind, flying farther and farther.
It was very windy that day...
Two thousand miles to the southeast, Black Eagle Cliff.
Dangerous cliffs dominate the riverside. The suddenly broken cliffs are like sharp knives piercing the earth. There are rugged rocks and ancient trees.
There are a group of eagles circling among the cliffs, and their sharp whistles make all beasts tremble with fear. There are no other monsters in the surrounding area who dare to come out.
A huge black-winged horned eagle is sitting alone on the highest point of Black Eagle Cliff.
Even with its wings folded, this horned eagle's height of nearly one foot is particularly terrifying, like a giant statue made of black iron, standing indifferently on the top of the cliff.
The feathers of the horned eagle are closely arranged, like rows of stacked daggers, forming an indestructible armor that glows with a dull matte light in the setting sun.
This is the Black Winged Eagle King, the undisputed overlord of the demon clan within a radius of two thousand miles, a presence that makes millions of living beings fearful.
At this moment, the Eagle King, who was dozing, suddenly raised his head from between his wings and looked straight to the north, with a cold look in his eyes.
A great demonic eagle with incomplete wings and withered feathers screamed miserably and flew staggeringly.
Hua la la... The river water under the cliff suddenly became violent, lapping at the cliff bank crazily, smashing into pieces, and causing waves.
Thousands of harpies quickly flew out, rising into the sky like black clouds, covering the sky and the sun.
The Black-Winged Eagle King let out a long roar, and the sound wave swept away quickly, the sound shook thousands of miles, and made countless demon clans panic.
The demon king is angry, which clan will bleed?
At this moment, Black Eagle Cliff was like the center of a storm, with manic auras raging endlessly.
Although there are some powerful demon clans operating in the distance, no one dares to come over and pry rashly for fear of getting into trouble.
But just by the river, a small white dandelion umbrella came with the wind and fell lightly.
Dandelions lie in the damp soil, facing Black Eagle Cliff, a remote location but with a wide view.
It will take root here, gradually grow, and blend in with the surrounding natural environment.
The Black-Winged Eagle King naturally didn't care about this little dandelion. He had already risen into the sky and left with a large number of eagle monsters.
They flew all the way north, flying over mountains and rivers, passing through the habitats of many demon tribes, and finally came to a vast dense forest.
There was already a giant ape that looked like a small mountain squatting beside the dense forest, carrying a huge stone stick two feet long on its shoulders, and stretched out casually.
Several thick trees nearby that had been growing for hundreds of years were suddenly broken by a gentle sweep of the thicker ape's arms.
Another king of demons, the overlord of the jungle, the Mountain Ape King.
The Black-Winged Eagle King descended from the sky with a majestic aura. He roared several times and scolded the Mountain Ape clan for their reckless behavior.
The Mountain Ape King squatted on the ground, listened lazily, stretched out his hand and yawned.
"Is there any remnant of the iron-eating beast clan that has been exterminated for three thousand years? Did they escape all the way to me? And by chance, their footprints were washed away by the heavy rain?"
As if hearing a joke, the Mountain Ape King took off the stone stick from his shoulder and weighed it with his palm, "Black Eagle, your excuse is too lame. Have you become stupid over the years?"
The Black-Winged Eagle King patiently warned: "Three thousand years ago, the iron-eating beasts and other powerful tribes were destroyed, and your and my ancestors rose up because of it. This is a deadly feud. If those remnants are allowed to resurrect, no one will be able to escape the reckoning!"
"Besides, our ancestors all died young, and there may be something fishy about it. Why don't you pay attention to it?"
The Mountain Ape King's eyes were unkind, and he let out a cold snort that sounded like muffled thunder, shattering the wind and clouds in the sky.
"You have the nerve to mention your ancestors? The previous generation of the demon king of my clan died young. As for the reason, your Eagle clan also has a share!"
As he spoke, he suddenly stood up. His huge body, four feet tall, stood like a peak, and his muscles swelled like huge rocks.
"Don't use what happened three thousand years ago as an excuse. Everyone could win at that time. Now everyone is stronger than before. Even if the Iron King is resurrected, he will still have to be beaten. Who can deal with me?"
"On the other hand, you, the Eagle Clan, have been looking for trouble time and time again. Do you really think that I dare not start a war?"
As the sound spread, countless mountain apes in the dense forest behind immediately joined in, slapping their chests and howling to increase their momentum.
The Black-Winged Eagle King's eyes were deep, and he did not deny the views of the Mountain Ape King, but his attitude was still tough - no matter what, his descendants were attacked here, and this must be recovered.
What kind of demon king is he if he can't protect his own race?
"No matter what you think, the traces of the iron-eating beast must be traced to the end. If you refuse to investigate, I will help you investigate!"
The eagles descended slowly, their momentum condensed into one, pressing down firmly on the ground below.
The mountain ape king was carrying the stone stick and sneered. Dust was rising in the dense forest behind him, and the ground began to tremble.
The two major ethnic groups confront each other, and the atmosphere becomes increasingly tense.
And not far away, a white dandelion was lying in the grass, quietly watching this great show through the gaps between the grass leaves...
In Beishan, Wanwan and Hongyun woke up leisurely. They had forgotten the specific scene they had just seen, but their minds were filled with a wonderful feeling, numb and ecstatic.
"Aren't we looking for the Bamboo of the North Mountain? Why did we fall asleep here?"
"Hey, I seem to have grown taller!"
As soon as Maruwan stretched, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his limbs were more stretched and seemed to be slightly longer.
"Is it the effect of that bamboo leaf a few days ago? Beishan Bamboo doesn't deceive me - it seems I need to find a reference, otherwise I won't know how much I have grown."
Marumaru recalled what he had seen during the past few days of traveling in the mountains, and his eyes were fixed on the mountainside.
There stood a rock three or four feet high. The outer stone wall was straight and smooth, as if cut with a knife.
Maruwan quickly walked to the bottom of the stone wall, stood up straight, extended his claws to the level of his head, and scratched a mark on the stone wall at the same height.
It took a few steps back, looked at the trace carefully, compared it with the height in its memory, and shook its head with a smile.
"It's indeed a bit higher."
Then he looked upward, looking at the entire towering stone wall, his small eyes full of anticipation.
"When I am as tall as this stone, I should be the King of Iron Eaters."
