Chapter 61: A Magnificent Performance
Thirty-seven meters per second—this was Ye Feng's limit.
At spirit power level 49, with four spirit rings, enhanced by the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes, the Fiery Apricot and Eight-Angled Ice Grass, plus the additional 340 agility points from the system, Ye Feng's speed had reached a blistering 37 meters per second—over 120 kilometers per hour.
By comparison, regular eagles only flew at around 80 kilometers per hour. But this wasn't just any bird; the Green-Feathered Eagle was the king among flying beasts. Even at a hundred years old, it could rival the speed of thousand-year-old birds.
Up in the sky, Ye Feng pursued the Green-Feathered Eagle relentlessly, the gap between them shifting constantly as the beast struggled to shake him off.
On the ground, Ning Rongrong summoned her Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, two spirit rings circling around her. Holding the glowing tower in her delicate hands, she looked up at Ye Feng and smiled.
"Brother, let me give you a boost."
Seven Treasures are famous—one is called speed!
A cyan light shone from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, enveloping Ye Feng in a matching glow. With her first spirit skill activated, his speed instantly increased by 20%. The distance between him and the eagle began closing rapidly.
The eagle let out a piercing cry, sensing the growing threat behind it. The crest on its head glowed with blue light, spreading across its entire body. In an instant, its speed surged by another 30%.
Just like that, the gap widened again.
Ye Feng smirked. "Alright, guess it's time to get serious."
He suddenly pushed off in mid-air, launching himself forward with explosive force. At the same time, he dismissed his Xuanyuan Sword, allowing gravity to pull him down for a split second before he kicked off again, his body soaring even faster.
For anyone else, this would have been suicide. Ye Feng was hundreds of meters in the air—if he fell, he'd be nothing but a splattered mess on the ground.
"Senior Brother!"
"Big Brother!"
"Ye Feng!"
Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhao Wuji all shouted in alarm. Their hearts nearly stopped watching him free-fall.
But right at his peak descent, Ye Feng summoned his Xuanyuan Sword once more. With another burst of spirit power, he kicked off the air again, repeating the motion rapidly. Each burst of movement propelled him closer and closer to his target.
Ning Rongrong let out a relieved sigh as she realized he wasn't in any danger. With renewed determination, she activated her first spirit skill again.
Seven Treasures are famous—one is called strength!
A golden light enveloped Ye Feng, boosting his power by another 20%. Now, with enhanced speed and strength, he was unstoppable.
"That little freak..." Zhao Wuji muttered in amazement, watching Ye Feng practically dance through the sky. "Flying with a sword, and he's even improvising it like that? What a damn monster."
Up ahead, the Green-Feathered Eagle sensed imminent danger. It abruptly stopped fleeing and tucked its wings inward. In the next instant, it spread them wide, releasing two sharp wind blades straight at Ye Feng.
Though its speed was impressive, the eagle's attack abilities were limited—wind blades were its only means of offense. Against a spirit master of Ye Feng's caliber, that attack was nothing more than a minor inconvenience.
Ye Feng didn't bother dodging. Instead, he pushed off once again, gaining more momentum. At the same time, he channeled his spirit power into the Xuanyuan Sword. A massive golden blade, nearly fifty meters long, extended from the sword's tip.
Man and Sword as One!
With a single powerful swing, he sliced through the wind blades like they were paper, and the residual force of his attack crashed down on the eagle, sending it spiraling toward the ground.
But Ye Feng wasn't trying to kill it. He needed the Green-Feathered Eagle alive for Oscar to absorb its spirit ring.
Reacting instantly, Ye Feng switched his martial spirit, summoning the Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang. His second spirit ring lit up with a deep yellow glow.
Second Spirit Skill: Freeze!
A wave of black ice surged out, completely encasing the falling eagle. With the beast temporarily immobilized, Ye Feng switched back to the Xuanyuan Sword, soared downward, and caught the frozen creature just before it hit the ground. He landed smoothly, not even kicking up a speck of dust.
Everything had gone perfectly.
Watching this from a distance, Tang San clenched his fists. His mind was in turmoil.
Self-created spirit skills...
He had clearly seen it. Ye Feng's attack just now wasn't from a spirit ring—it was a technique he had developed himself. Tang San wasn't jealous. After all, he had his own self-created techniques. Both he and Ye Feng were twin-spirit masters. There was no need for envy.
But there was something else burning inside Tang San. A desire.
He looked straight at Ye Feng and said, "Ye Feng, I want to fight you."
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "You're no match for me. I'm a Spirit Ancestor with four rings."
Tang San wasn't discouraged. His voice was firm. "When I reach the same spirit master level as you, will you fight me then?"
Before Ye Feng could reply, Ma Hongjun snorted. "Come on, Fourth Brother, don't kid yourself. Boss Ye is a level 49 Spirit Ancestor. You're only a level 29 Grandmaster. How the hell do you plan to catch up to him?"
Tang San ignored him, keeping his gaze locked on Ye Feng. "Well? What's your answer?"
Ye Feng nodded, his tone calm. "Alright. When your spirit power catches up to mine, I'll fight you."
Just then, Xiao Wu ran up and tugged at Ye Feng's sleeve, her tone filled with frustration.
"Big Brother! You scared the hell out of me just now!"
Ye Feng chuckled and gently flicked her rabbit ears. "I'm fine, don't worry." Then, he turned to Oscar. "Alright, go ahead and absorb its spirit ring."
