Chapter 885: Myriad Saints Immortal Sect (1)
"This place was near the Reapers' military war zone. It was in a state of complete anarchy and had long been treated as grazing land. It was repeatedly ravaged and occupied by lower-tier Reaper clans. So, this desolation and chaos were to be expected," Liu Shaji said.
As he spoke, a large shadow descended overhead. Looking up, they saw an enormous fleshy bird soaring above them. It resembled a black mountain moving through the sky, casting a vast shadow over the land.
"So big," Li Xiaofei exclaimed in awe.
A line from ancient literature surfaced in his mind, In the northern seas, there is a fish, and its name is Kun...When the Kun transforms, it becomes a bird named Peng. Its wings were said to stretch across the heavens like hanging clouds.
"This thing... could it be the legendary Kun Peng?" Li Xiaofei asked.
Liu Shaji shot him a disdainful glare, as if looking at a country bumpkin, and scoffed. "Ignorant brat. That’s a Zhong, a type of Reaper creature. It’s massive, and capable of traveling through the vacuum of space. It's often used as a troop transport vessel. But in truth, it’s one of the rare, gentle species among the Reapers. It doesn't have a strong attack instinct and bears no particular hatred toward humans. On the contrary, it could be considered a benevolent bird."
"Zhong?" Li Xiaofei repeated. "If that’s the case, should we kill it or not?"
"Of course not," Liu Shaji replied. "I'm not some bird-killing maniac. To be honest, aside from occasionally helping the Reapers transport troops, it’s actually quite virtuous. I rather like the creature..."
But before the words had even left his mouth, a massive black hole suddenly opened at the rear end of the enormous fleshy bird, the Zhong. The flesh around its edge writhed grotesquely, and in the next instant, a massive blob of thick, mud-like sludge dropped out of it.
Splat.
Like a mountain of sludge, it crashed to the ground nearly a kilometer ahead of Li Xiaofei and Liu Shaji. An indescribably foul stench instantly spread across the entire planet.
Li Xiaofei immediately sealed off the space around them and stared in disbelief. He said, “Holy shit, Chicken Bro[1]... did that thing just crap on us?”
