Prime Originator

Chapter 567 - Changing Tide

"The Warring Race of the Barbarian Tribe might be powerful, but this does not mean other humans can't be as powerful as them. After all, the Warring Race is also of human origins," Leon spoke.

He has once heard about the Barbarian Tribe from Lilith.

If there's a chance, he would also like to meet the Warring Race, which was said to be a group of humans who have pushed the boundaries of their bodies to the extreme.

How could they achieve it without relying on the body forging heritage from the primordial era of gods and devils?

Perhaps they did have such heritage, or maybe they do not. Leon could only found out after visiting the Barbarian Tribe one day.

"Are you trying to say I am ignorant, puny human?" The Rank 2 Transcendent Blue Luan queried with a cold, intimidating gaze.

"I wouldn't dare." Leon shook his head before he questioned the proudful Blue Luan, "However, can you say for certain that you know everything there is to know in the world?"

"Hmph, of course not. Claiming to know something that I clearly do not is a shameful act unbefitting of our kind. The Blue Luan Race is proud without such arrogance." The Rank 2 Transcendent Blue Luan flapped its wings with grandeur.

"Then don't act like you do…" is what Leon wanted to say, but he was sure to offend the Blue Luan if he did.

"I see." He simply uttered.

Leon was unwilling to continue talking to the Blue Luan.

The Blue Luan's pride as high as the empyrean heavens made it difficult for Leon to get along with them. Although they look majestic and beautiful, they were not fun to talk to at all.

If he ever found a Blue Luan egg and decided to raise a Blue Luan, he would definitely break its pride and brainwash it into thinking it is a dumb chicken or something.

"You're thinking about something very disrespectful just now, aren't you?" The Rank 2 Transcendent Blue Luan interrogated with a dangerous gaze.

While fighting Three-Legged Golden Crows left and right, the Blue Luan had paid a great deal of attention to Leon.

"Not at all. You just imagine things." Leon quickly denied with a straight face before shooting off to hunt another Three-Legged Golden Crow, "Stop bothering me and go kill some Golden Crows so that more of your kin may survive or something."

"Are you ordering me, human?" The Blue Luan narrowed its eyes.

Leon frowned slightly before he corrected the Blue Luan with a smile, "No, I am merely giving you a suggestion."

"Hmph." The Blue Luan snorted before finally minding its own business.

Leon sighed with relief before pulling his Tier 4 Bone Spear out from the head of a Rank 1 Transcendent Three-Legged Golden Crow.

'The Blue Luan's intelligence is relatively high, but it is still possible to trick them with words.' Leon pondered slightly before focusing wholeheartedly on the battle.

The battle near the Paragons was the most intense. But at the same time, the Three-Legged Golden Crows feasting on its flesh and blood were also the most vulnerable.

While Leon was picking off kills in this area, the others were also busy killing Three-Legged Golden Crows in their own region of space.

The Three-Legged Golden Crow's death rate began to climb before they were slowly overwhelmed by the Blue Luan's numbers.

As the battle dragged on, the Three-Legged Golden Crow's numbers eventually plunged into the hundreds while the Blue Luans remained in the thousands.

"Are this rate, the Three-Legged Golden Crows will surely be wiped out by the Blue Luans. I think we have helped more than enough for them to win the battle on their own now," Aria's voice trickled into Leon's ears from a distance.

Leon glanced over with a bit of surprise after slaying another Rank 1 Transcendent Three-Legged Golden Crow before flying over to her side.

Shortly after, another Three-Legged Golden Crow shot past them and dived straight into the newly vacant spot around the Paragon's carcass, kicking the other bodies out of the way.

Humans were truly small in comparison to these 300-feet big behemoths.

"If we are going to help them, we should help them all the way. Besides, nothing is certain until the battle is truly over," Leon spoke before holding onto Aria's soft hands with a slight smile, "Why have you come over here?"

Amidst the booming noises and cries of the battlefield, a quiet snort was mixed within.

Aria glancing back at Leon with a sweet smile, "I just wanted to see how you were—"

Rumble…

She did not get to finish speaking before both their face's abruptly changed as the earth suddenly started shaking due to a surge of powerful aura.

"Be careful!" Leon immediately warned while pulling Aria into his chest and shield her with his body.

Boom!

One of the Rank 2 Transcendent Three-Legged Golden Crow erupted with huge golden flames, slamming against Leon's back before the two were swept away!

The surrounding Blue Luans and Three-Legged Golden Crows were also pushed away by the eruption of golden flames before the Rank 2 Transcendent Three-Legged Golden Crow raised its head towards the heavens.

Kreeee!

The Golden Crow issued a long and mighty cry before the golden flames surged with greater intensity, burning everything around it!

"Leon! Are you alright?!" Aria cried in Leon's arms as they were blown away by the sudden eruption of power.

Swoosh~!

In a short instance, Duna and the Supreme Elder quickly flew over and gathered by their side.

"Are you alright, young prince?" Supreme Elder Haldir asked out of concern while Duna silently inspected his burnt back.

"Ahem, I'm fine," Leon coughed slightly with a frown while feeling the searing pain on his back that exceeded the scope of his body's fire resistance, "This much damage is nothing to me. More importantly, we have a bigger problem on our hands now!"

Kree! Kree!

The Blue Luans cried out to each other, "Gather, everyone! The Golden Crows have taken a step ahead of us, but the Blue Luans do not and will not cower!"

"Stop it! Don't let that Golden Crow complete its awakening!"

Kree! Kree!

All the Blue Luans quickly concentrated their attacks on the Golden Crow to interrupt its awakening, diving straight into the surging golden flames!
