The people present did not have a clear concept or understanding of divine beasts. They only relied on their limited knowledge and instincts to make judgments.

The Halcyon Divine Bird stood proudly with its head held high and its chest puffed out as it stared unblinkingly at Qin De, who had been severely injured with just one of its strikes.

The overall strength of the White Tower Council was not weak. There were judges with eight Birth Charts and elders with nine and ten Birth Charts. However, compared to Qin Des 17 Birth Charts, they were rather pitiful. However, even a Seventeen Chart expert could not withstand a strike from the bird. He did not even have a chance to retaliate. There were no magnificent fights, ostentatious displays of power, or overwhelming shows of strength. He simply dropped straight to the ground.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Was this the fighting style of a bigshot? Was it all about simple and clean attacks?

Ning Wanqing could not see, but with his superb hearing, he could guess the situation. Everyones heartbeats seemed much relaxed now, and their breathing was smoother as well. He could hear the fluctuation of Primal Qi as well as the Halcyon Divine Birds Great Void energy as well.

The blue-clad woman standing on the Halcyon Divine Bird looked plain. She jumped down from the birds back and glanced at the crowd. Is everyone okay?

Ye Tianxin asked, Did Tower Master Lan send you here?

The blue-clad female attendant nodded with a smile. After returning to the Great Void, she told me to keep an eye on the White Tower Council.

No one knew if they should feel happy or worried. They were happy that such a powerful figure was watching over them, but at the same time, it was rather discomfiting knowing that someone was secretly watching their every move.

The blue-clad female attendant walked over to Qin De and asked, Who are you?

Qin De lay on the ground as he launched into a coughing fit. He tried to raise his head to see who or what had injured him. When he finally had a clear look, he cried out, H-Halcyon Divine Bird?!

The Halcyon Divine Bird cried out as though it was responding to Qin De. It was quite intelligent, after all. It enjoyed the fear and reverence it inspired in humans.

At this time, Ye Tianxin took the initiative to say, Hes Qin De, the first elder of the Qin clan in the green lotus domain.

He has 17 Birth Charts. Stay away from him in case he suddenly acts, Bi Shuo reminded the others.

Everyone retreated immediately.

The blue-clad female attendant glanced at the Halcyon Divine Bird and said, Hes yours.

Upon hearing these words, the Halcyon Divine Bird ran over happily.

Qin Des eyes widened and he kept muttering, No, no, no

Qin Des survival instinct kicked in at this moment. Despite being severely injured, he launched dozens of palm seals at the bird.

The Halcyon Divine Bird was completely unharmed. The attacks did not even ruffle its feathers. It continued to run forward. When it arrived at Qin Des side, it pecked its long and sharp beaks at him.

Qin De hurriedly manifested his astrolabe to resist the bird.

Bang!

Qin De let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The Halcyon Divine Birds beaks were curved like a hook and as sharp as a blade. Almost without any suspense, it pierced through Qin Des astrolabe. It pushed downward, piercing his chest and into his heart. Then, it lifted its head, gouging out Qin Des heart.

Gulp!

The Halcyon Divine Bird swallowed the heart into its stomach as though it was swallowing dates.

Following that, a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar appeared before disappearing again, indicating that Qin De had lost a Birth Chart.

When a human cultivator reached a certain realm, they would not die immediately even if they lost their hearts. If one knew the right method, one could still survive. For example, there were secret techniques such as the Heart Resurrection Technique, blood sacrifice rituals, and parasitic techniques that could keep one alive. There were also some special species such as the Void Chest tribesmen who were not reliant on their hearts to live.

Blood from Qin Des heart splashed on his face before it disappeared down the Halcyon Divine Birds throat. His eyes shone with fear as he cried out, Get lost!

Subsequently, at the juncture between life and death, Qin De released all the power of his 16 Birth Charts.

A violent and surging energy swept out, forcing the others to bring out their astrolabes to withstand it.

Swoosh!

Strangely, they discovered that they were unaffected by the wave of energy. Puzzled, they raised their heads to have a look. They saw the crimson wings of the Halcyon Divine Bird spread out like an impenetrable city wall, blocking the wave of energy like Mount Tai.

The Halcyon Divine Birds crimson feathers glinted dazzlingly when the white snow was reflected on them. They looked like shining rubies.

Swoosh!

The Halcyon Divine Bird folded its wings.

If they had sensed its Great Void Energy, did not see it attack, or see its majestic posture when it unfurled its wings, they would not have been able to guess the fierce beast in front of them was a divine beast. However, all its actions indicated that it was truly a divine beast.

The blue-clad female attendant said with a smile, Its inconvenient for master to come here so she especially ordered me to ride the divine beast here. Dont be afraid. Its very obedient to master.

Everyone nodded.

Bi Shuo murmured, Truly unbelievable. Its so small

Youre wrong, the blue-clad female attendant said, Divine beasts can change their sizes at will. However, there are rules in the Great Void that restrict them.

Si Wuya asked curiously, Wheres the Great Void?

The blue-clad female attendant knew Si Wuya was difficult to deal with so she had already prepared an excuse beforehand. She said, Right now, the Great Void is still far from your reach. The less you know, the safer it is for you

I dont understand. Tower Master Lan is from the Great Void, but why did she become the Tower Master of the White Tower Council? Si Wuya pressed on.

Im just an attendant so there are many things Im not privy to, the blue-clad female attendant said.

Si Wuya shook his head helplessly. He knew it was impossible to dig out any information from the blue-clad female attendant.

At the same time, Qin De had been completely subdued by the Halcyon Divine Birds strength. He could not move at all. Even though he had exploded with the power of his 16 Birth Charts, he was unable to shake the bird off.

At this time, the Halcyon Divine Birds beaks suddenly elongated and ruthlessly pierced Qin Des chest again. It was as though, in its eyes, Qin De was just a reptile on the ground. It was like a machine; it obeyed its order with utmost precision and attacked ruthlessly.

One by one, Qin Des Birth Charts were destroyed.

The Primal Qi storm that was about to brew was also sucked down the Halcyon Divine Birds throat into its stomach.

Qin De finally gave up resisting. He began to laugh. His laughter was a mixture of sorrow and madness. Great Void! How great it is!

The blue-clad female attendant frowned. What are you laughing about?

I worked hard to cultivate and survive, removing all the obstacles that stood in my path, Qin De said as blood gushed out of his chest, However, in front of you, Im not better than reptiles. Isnt it laughable?

The blue-clad female attendant shook her head. Youre on the brink of death, but youre still unrepentant.

Qin De continued to laugh in between throwing up blood. Youre all hypocrites! How ridiculous!

A mans words might not be kind when he was on the verge of death.

As though possessed, Qin De continued to ramble on. All of you think youre the masters of heaven and earth! You constructed a forbidden cultivation land and imposed restraints on others, but you sit alone on a high throne, treating the battles between humans and fierce beasts as entertainment! All of you are too arrogant!
