Locked in by the thin bamboo pole figure's gaze, Li Fan felt a sudden premonition in his heart.
At this moment, Xu Ke, who was spiritually connected with Li Fan, also reacted.
Protecting Li Fan behind him, Xu Ke's face was tense as he said, "Song Yang? What are you planning to do?"
Perhaps it was the rare chaotic scene in the Imperial Beast Sect that gave him confidence. Song Yang stopped acting and directly said viciously, "I really don't understand why a fool like you has such good luck!"
"What do you think I'm going to do? Of course, it's to take back what rightfully belongs to me!" With his ferocity revealed, Song Yang's eyes were full of killing intent.
At his signal, his companion beast, the two-headed black snake, slithered to the ground and slowly approached.
With a look of horror on his face, Xu Ke kept backing away, saying, "Senior Brother Song, have you misunderstood? I haven't taken anything that belongs to you..."
Although he said so, Xu Ke stood in front of Li Fan, trying to block Song Yang's line of sight.
Such small actions naturally couldn't escape Song Yang's notice. With a sneer on his face, he said, "Kid, stop pretending. Transfer the ownership of the Divine Bird to me, and I might spare your life. Otherwise..."
Song Yang snorted coldly, "Don't blame me for not acknowledging my fellow disciple. I'm sure you're aware of the pain of forcibly extracting blood essence and transferring it to a companion beast."
Xu Ke was alarmed when he heard this, "Song Yang! Plundering a companion beast is a major taboo in the sect! How dare you..."
Song Yang interrupted Xu Ke impatiently, "What stupidity. At this point, you're still talking about the sect's rules. Haven't you seen that the Imperial Beast Sect can't even protect itself now?"
It seemed that his patience was also completely exhausted, and he no longer bothered to waste words, ordering directly, "Black Spirit, attack!"
The two-headed black snake had long been ready, and at this moment, following Song Yang's order, its body sprang up.
From the mouth of the snake, a black venom sprayed out.
The black venom was like an arrow, about to fall on Xu Ke.
Xu Ke stepped on the wind, swiftly turning his body and narrowly avoiding it.
As the black water fell to the ground, it made a sizzling sound.
Glancing at it, Xu Ke's face paled involuntarily.
Not only was all the vegetation corroded to nothing, but even the stones underneath couldn't resist the erosion of the venom.
He had not yet learned how to form a barrier using spiritual energy. Once hit, he would probably either die or at least be severely injured.
Thinking of this, Xu Ke pulled out something from his bosom and threw it fiercely towards Song Yang and the two-headed snake.
He also took out a white feather from his bosom, intending to summon a crane to escape.
However, Song Yang seemed to have been prepared long ago.
Before the concealed weapon thrown by Xu Ke exploded, it was caught by a blue light and suspended in the air.
Among the black snake's two heads, the one that had its eyes tightly closed suddenly opened its eyes.
A black light shot out, hitting the crane feather.
The white crane feather seemed to ignite and turned into ash, fluttering down.
"It's useless, Xu Ke. I've made every preparation to deal with you. I've been following you in secret for months. I know exactly what tricks you have up your sleeve!"
"What are you going to fight me with?" Song Yang looked at Xu Ke as if he were looking at a dead man.
The next moment, another stream of black venom spewed out from the snake's mouth.
It was about to fall on Xu Ke, who was unable to dodge due to his shaken mind.
At this critical moment, a white light suddenly shot out from behind, facing the black venom head-on.
The venom that was capable of corroding stone seemed to be no match for this white light.
The moment it was touched, it all disappeared.
The white light's momentum remained undiminished, heading straight towards the two-headed black snake.
The closed-eyed snake head opened its eyes again, and black light burst forth, barely blocking the white light.
While Song Yang was shocked, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.
"The Divine Light of Destiny!"
"The Divine Bird of Destiny is indeed extraordinary. It can confront the Black Spirit head-on even in its juvenile stage. If it were fully grown..."
"What matters most is its accompanying divine ability, Destiny Within Me,"
Song Yang looked at the mentally exhausted Li Fan, his desire to seize the Divine Bird growing stronger.
"Are you okay?" Seizing the time granted by the light, Xu Ke hurriedly ran away, flying towards the distance.
But the gap in strength between him and Song Yang was too great. It wouldn't be long before he was caught up by the other party.
At this moment, Xu Ke didn't first worry about his own safety.
Instead, he looked at Li Fan, who had exhausted his ability to save his life, with heartache.
"So weak, releasing one blow is the limit." In his exhaustion, Li Fan thought helplessly.
Not even having the strength to claw at Xu Ke, Li Fan just uttered a soft cry, indicating that he was temporarily okay.
Just now, seeing Xu Ke threatened with his life, Li Fan, as his companion beast, suddenly awakened the memory in his bloodline and unleashed the 'Divine Light of Destiny', saving him.
Therefore, Li Fan learned of the identity of the possessed strange bird.
The Divine Bird of Destiny.
The inherent strength of the Divine Bird was not considered strong, but it had one ability that made all other demonic beasts and even cultivators envious.
That was gathering and enhancing one's luck.
Luck was not a fantasy, but a reality.
Some cultivators, with excellent talent and temperament, ultimately failed on their paths due to a lack of luck.
But the Divine Bird could help its recognized master reverse their fate.
Moreover, as the Divine Bird's strength grew, this ability to gather luck would also become stronger.
In the end, it could even transform from "changing luck" to "changing destiny".
This was the so-called Destiny Within Me.
The master of the Divine Bird was the son of destiny.
Turning misfortune into opportunity and encountering miracles were all commonplace.
"No wonder that thin bamboo pole wanted to catch me so badly."
"So, the possessed strange bird was actually a treasure."
"Luck..."
In his exhaustion, Li Fan forced open his eyes, trying to use his newly awakened ability.
Looking at Xu Ke, a purple-golden light rose from his spirit.
Although there were one or two black wisps of smoke circling around, they couldn't conceal the nobility of the purple-golden light.
"Huh? This kid..."
"It turns out he already carried heavenly fortune. It was me who made a fool of myself."
"And I also expended so much energy."
Angered, Li Fan bit Xu Ke fiercely.
But because he was too weak, it was as painless as scratching an itch.
Xu Ke, who was struggling to escape, didn't care at all.
Because behind him, the pursuing Song Yang was about to catch up.
Just as Xu Ke was exhausted and about to give into despair, he suddenly saw, not far ahead, a bewildered green phoenix standing.
Lying under its feet seemed to be the body of its original owner.
Seeing this, Xu Ke was overjoyed.
He swiftly approached the green phoenix and embraced it while mounting it.
At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Little Green, let's go!"
The green phoenix instinctively spread its wings.
With a gentle flap, it soared into the sky, high into the clouds.
Locked in by the thin bamboo pole figure's gaze, Li Fan felt a sudden premonition in his heart.
At this moment, Xu Ke, who was spiritually connected with Li Fan, also reacted.
Protecting Li Fan behind him, Xu Ke's face was tense as he said, "Song Yang? What are you planning to do?"
