Just when she thought that her body could stand it no longer, the blood ring on her left hand shot out blood red rays, which was not obvious at all amongst all the blood. After that, a warm strength flowed from her hand and the strength quieted the electricity in her body, flowing into her dantian according to her instructions.

“Hu-”

You Yue heaved out a long breath of air, and her first thought was to check whether or not she was already dead. When she had managed to absorb all the spiritual energy into her dantian, she finally opened her eyes and looked at the blood ring on her finger.

Just now, that warmth and strength came from this ring. Why was it that, upon examining it closely, she couldn’t figure out what was different about it?

“Zap-”

A bolt of lightning that resounded with the powers of heaven and earth shot from the sky. She lifted her head to see, and Little Roc was struck so badly that his whole body was mangled. He dropped from the sky and fell heavily to the ground.

“Little Roc-”

She quickly climbed up and dashed to where Little Roc was. Seeing how his body was torn and tattered, her heart ached.

It was a good thing that the dark clouds in the sky started to dissipate. Otherwise, if it happened again, the two of them would definitely be finished!

“Master, we did it!” Little Roc’s voice was weak. It showed that his wounds were really serious.

However, as long as they were still alive, these bit of wounds were no problem.

At this time, a gentle ray of light shot out from Little Roc’s body and enveloped him. In the middle of it, the advancement ray of light shot out. Sima You Yue could also feel that her inner body had become stronger. The opportunity to advance in rank was just in front of her.

After the divine rank, advancements in rank were not solely based on strength. Many had satisfied many of the requirements, but that did not mean they would definitely be able to advance in rank. They just missed that opportunity.

The four winged roc clan and Sima Lie and gang saw that the two of them were going to advance in rank after the lightning trials, and hurried to stand and surround the mountain valleys. They surrounded them to keep them safe.

After half an hour had passed, Sima You Yue successfully advanced to the rank of an intermediate divine king. As for Little Roc, he had advanced from a second ranked sacred beast to a third ranked one. Ya GUang and Thousand Resonance and the others had also increased in strength from their contract with Sima You Yue at varying degrees. Although they did not advance in rank, they had gotten quite a bit of benefits.

After Sima You Yue had finished advancing in rank, she opened her eyes and saw a super handsome guy. Before she had yet to speak, the other party enveloped her in a hug and cried out with joy, “Master, master! My transformation succeeded! Ha ha ha…”

Sima You Yue was hugged so tightly that she couldn’t breathe. She smiled and said, “I knew you could do it. Little Roc has always been amazing! However, if you continue to hug me like this, I’ll be squished to death!”

Little Roc released her with an embarrassed face. He had just transformed and wasn’t used to his two hands, so he couldn’t control his strength.

“Thank you, Master! If it were not for Master, I think I would have died before I was even halfway through.”

Ninth Roc and the others had told them that Master had taken thirty eight strikes of lightning on his behalf. Although the lightning strikes at the front were not that strong, and most of the power was concentrated on the last nine bolts, if she were not around, he would have been struck dead during the activation of his bloodline.

Sima You Yue stood up and appraised Little Roc, snickering, “Who knew that our little Roc would look so attractive after transformation. You’re such a hunk!”

Little Roc also really liked his human appearance, and would duck his head to check out his body now and then.

Sima Lie and the others walked out and saw that Sima You Yue had already recovered, so ran over to hug her.

“You really scared Grandfather to death.”

Sima You Yue patted Smia Lie’s shoulder, saying, “Sorry to make you worry.”

“You Yue, you really advance in rank so quickly. It hasn’t been a year since you advanced to the Divine King rank, but you’ve already reached the mid rank! But your advancement speed is really too terrifying!” Fatty Qu looked at Sima You yue and saw how many wounds were on her body. The strength brought about by her advancement in rank only healed her inner wounds. It didn’t do much to her outside wounds.

Ninth Roc and the others came beside her and held on to her hand. She looked at her gratefully, saying, “Thank you. I really do think that it is Little Roc’s fortune to have been able to get a contracted master like you.”

“It’s my fortune as well.” Sima You yue said.

“Mum, let’s go over there to settle the issues. Let Master heal his wounds first.” Little Roc said.

Not far away, many bird clans were waiting for him to come over.

Little Roc led Ninth Roc away as Sima You Yue ate another two pills. There were sixth ranked pills for healing purposes. She had already eaten so many pills since she first started the lightning trials. If it weren’t for the fact that she was an alchemist, nobody would be able to afford this kind of extravagance.

Those who had gathered to watch the show had long since dispersed, leaving behind only the bird clans. Although they were rather unwilling, once the Great Roc appeared, who dared to disobey? They could only recognise him as their king.

Inside the city, a black clothed man obtained the news and his expression was so dark that nobody dared to speak carelessly.

“I didn’t think we would be late by a single step and allow him to become the great roc!” He spat maliciously.

Thinking of how his own people were currently in Little Roc’s residence pledging their allegiance, he was even more incensed.

“Goshawk King, based on the news that we received, that Great Roc was only able to succeed based on outside help. He isn’t that strong.” Fei Si said, “If we are able to kill him before he grows, wouldn’t you still be the one in charge?”

“Although he isn’t that strong, he is standing at the frontlines. All the bird clans will be suppressed by his bloodline. If I want to kill him, it won’t be easy.” The black clothed man, who was the Goshawk King, replied.

“Aren’t we collaborating?” Fei Si smiled and said, “If we are able to help you get rid of that great roc…”

“Really?” Goshawk King looked at Fei Si, thinking to ascertain whether or not he was speaking the truth.

“I’ve said it. It’s a collaboration. If we help you do this, naturally, we will undertake the risks. You guys also naturally have to give us some benefit as well. You know this as well, our Fei Clan and the Lian Clan are highly ranked families, our grudges run deep…” Fei Si said.

“If you can help us kill Great Roc, we can expand some effort to help you.” Goshawk King said.

Fei Si was a little troubled at this point, saying, “That couldn’t be any better. However, we’re afraid that, if we kill Great Roc, we will evoke the ire of all the bird clans. Our Fei Clan is big, but we don’t have the ability to contend against all the bird clans on the island.”

“You don’t have to worry about this. All those bird clans have been functioning on their own all these years. There aren’t many who are willing to serve another. As long as there isn’t any Great Roc, I have a way to stop the bird clans from picking a fight with you.” Goshawk King said.

“That would be good if it were the case.” Fei Si said, “However, I cannot make the decision for such a big issue like this. I can’t activate that many experts. That’s why I want to invite you, Goshawk King, to our Innumerable Green City to discuss it with my clan leader. What do you think?”

Goshawk King pondered over it for a moment, replying, “Okay. Then we will head over to Innumerable green City. If there is nothing else you have yet to say, we can head off now.”

“The Great Roc is just outside, are you not going to greet him?” Fei Si asked.

“I’m not going. It’s impossible if you want me to pay my respects to him.” Goshawk King snorted coldly.

“Since that’s the case, we shall return directly.”

Fei Si took out a one-time-use teleportation array, and placed it down on the ground after inserting spiritual energy into it. The array to the front of the Fei Clan was activated successfully and the group of them entered it. They quickly disappeared from inside the house.
