Chapter Fifty-Four: The Mysterious Ore Hill

  Du Fei saw that the attack of the Golden Vajra was increasing and coming straight at him, but he didn't dare to fly down and attack them. Anxious, Du Fei cursed loudly in his heart and continuously dodged the flying boulders that were shooting up into the air.

  "Fly higher, I want to see just how high this son of a bitch can throw." Du Fei gritted his teeth as he stared at the Shi Yuan Golden Ape on the ground. As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Zi Tian Shu brought him rapidly soaring into the sky. Du Fei looked down at the situation below - those two Shi Yuan Golden Apes had already become a tiny point in his eyes, and by the time the stone thrown upwards reached him, it was almost unable to ascend any further. Du Fei casually grabbed a piece of ore, preparing to throw it downwards with great force to attack the Shi Yuan Golden Ape. Just as he grasped the ore, Wu Zi Tian Shu's white light flashed once more. Du Fei looked at Wu Zi Tian Shu in surprise: "Put this ore on me and let me take a look, I feel like there's something unusual about it."

  Du Fei saw what was said on the wordless heavenly book and asked excitedly, "Is there anything different about it? Is it some kind of rare mineral?"

  "No, this is just ordinary iron ore, but I feel a living aura on it. Go get some more and put them on me." The Wordless Heavenly Book wrote.

  "What does 'breath of life' mean?" Du Fei asked in doubt.

  "Don't ask so many questions now, just do what I say first, and I'll tell you later." The font on the Wordless Heavenly Book changed rapidly.

  Du Fei didn't say much, and after a while, he took out a few more pieces of iron ore and placed them on the Wordless Heavenly Book. The Wordless Heavenly Book emitted a bright white light for a good while, and Du Fei could only stand by and watch, hoping that the book would reveal something to him. As the white light gradually faded from the surface of the Wordless Heavenly Book, Du Fei anxiously asked: "How is it? Have you discovered anything?"

  "Yes, I think there's something wrong with this mineral hill. The minerals that fall from the top of the hill seem to have a vital energy, which means the mineral hill is alive." Du Fei couldn't help but exclaim in shock: "What did you say? This mineral hill is alive? This...this...how is this possible? Are you deceiving me?"

  "I'm kidding, I'm telling the truth. It seems that this mineral hill is not an ordinary mineral hill. The location of its true body should be at the deepest part of this mineral hill..." The text on the Wordless Heavenly Book was still changing, but Du Fei had already spoken up: "Wait a minute, don't write anything yet. You'd better explain clearly what's going on with this hill being a living creature. I'm getting more and more confused."

  "These ore blocks are like the flesh and blood of a person, although they have left their native land, but still retain the aura of their original body. These ore blocks are no exception. I dare not determine what this ore hill is, to know what it is, you must find its true form, but I estimate that the true form of this guy will not be simple." The wordless heavenly book wrote.

  "What's to be done, those two Golden Guardians on the ground are not easy to deal with, and now that you've said that, I'm even more at a loss." Du Fei looked at the Wordless Heavenly Book with some anxiety.

  "It can't be helped. Let's retreat first, this guy is probably not easy to deal with, and those two words '嗜元金刚' should be under his control. If the true body really appears, I don't know how strong that guy's power will be. For now, let's find a place to hide and talk about it later." Wrote the wordless heavenly book. Just as Du Fei was preparing to leave, he saw a burst of silver light shining on the surface of the mining stone hill, and Du Fei looked at the change in surprise.

  At this time, the surface of the mountain ridge suddenly formed two large silver-white birds. The big bird floated in mid-air, flapping its wings constantly, and let out a loud "ya ya" cry. With a sudden flap of its wings, the bird shot straight up into the air, charging towards Du Fei's location. Just as Du Fei was about to be shocked, the Wordless Heavenly Book suddenly shone brightly, taking Du Fei with it in an extremely fast escape. Du Fei also jumped down due to the actions of the Wordless Heavenly Book and asked: "What happened?"

  "Hurry up and leave, those two big birds are here for you." The Wordless Heavenly Book wrote.

  "Judging from those two Yuanjing Golden Apes and these two large birds, it must be the work of that mineral mountain ridge." Du Fei asked Wu Zitian Shu. At this time, a continuous "yah yah" cry came from behind. When Du Fei heard it, he also turned his head to look at the two large birds chasing after him, and a hint of anxiety appeared in his eyes. The two large birds opened their mouths at this moment, and a mouthful of flames suddenly spewed out, shooting towards Du Fei. Seeing the flames attacking himself, Du Fei controlled the flight direction of Wu Zitian Shu to dodge the attack. At this time, the large bird continued to pursue Du Fei, who kept changing his flight trajectory in mid-air to avoid the bird's attacks. Those two large birds seemed to have endless energy and closely followed Du Fei without letting up.

  Du Fei saw the big bird still closely following behind him, anxiously looking at this wordless heavenly book and said: "Can't you hurry up a bit? You're usually flying so fast, why are you being so slow today?"

  "Don't worry, they can't hurt you. I'm flying slowly on purpose to lure them out. I have my reasons." The text on the blank book changed rapidly. As Du Fei looked at the words on the blank book, the two large birds stopped chasing him and instead hovered in mid-air, letting out a reluctant cry. Du Fei also noticed that the two large birds were hovering in mid-air, looking at them with an expression of surprise. At this time, the silver-white color on the bird's body was no longer as bright as before, and the outer layer of silver-white had become less dense, revealing a more vibrant red underneath. Du Fei looked at the changes in the two large birds with a disbelieving expression and asked: "Hey, what's wrong with these two? Why have they changed too? Could something be wrong?"

  "This isn't right, now these two guys are about to reveal their true forms. It seems my guess was correct, let's leave here first." After finishing speaking, the Wordless Heavenly Book took Du Fei and sped away at an extremely fast speed. The two large birds saw Du Fei escape from their pursuit and hovered in mid-air, letting out unwilling screeches...

  Under a quiet tree, Du Fei walked on the ground looking at the wordless heavenly book in his hand and asked: "Alright, now that it's safe, tell me about what just happened?"

  "Just now you found that after those two birds flew for a while, the silver light on their bodies became more and more dim." Du Fei's eyes suddenly widened: "So what?" The text on the Wordless Heavenly Book changed rapidly: "Because just now I took them flying in a straight line, we got farther and farther away from that mountain range of ore, and finally those two birds underwent changes, didn't they?"

  Du Fei was taken aback, and laughed: "Right, how did I not notice that. Your meaning is that the farther away from that mountain of ore, the fainter the silver light on the bodies of the yuan beasts that separate from the top of those mountains will be, right?"

  "Ah, that's right, but you only got it half right. The silver glow on those two large birds and the silver glow on those two Yuan beasts are exactly the same. If I'm not mistaken, their defensive strength should be about the same. However, these aren't their true forms. The silver glow on them must have something to do with that mineral mountain. The closer you get to that mineral mountain, the brighter the silver glow on those mutated yuan beasts becomes, and the stronger their defense is. They're all being controlled by that mineral mountain. When those two large birds were chasing us earlier, I deliberately lured them out, and as a result, they exposed their true forms when they got too far away from the mineral mountain. The root of all these problems lies with that mineral mountain."

  "That ore mountain is also too powerful, casually sending out a small brother is so powerful, I don't know how strong the main body of that ore mountain is. Have you thought of a countermeasure?" Du Fei asked.

  "You think I'm a god or something, expecting to get every method. Look at those Yuan beasts, they're all low-level, low-grade Yuan beasts, but under the influence of the Mineral Mountain Range, their strength has reached that of mid-grade Yuan beasts. I think that guy might have more than two Yuan beasts in his body, there should be other Yuan beasts present, this is not good." The Scripture of the Wordless Heaven said.

  "Alright, you've said so much, why don't you tell me what that guy is all about?" Du Fei asked.

  "Not very clear, after all, I haven't seen the true body." The Wordless Heavenly Book wrote.

  "Alas, nobody knows our situation, how can we fight this battle?" Du Fei sighed.

  "How can you give up like this? This doesn't seem like your personality," wrote Wu Zi Tian Shu.

  "What can I do? Their younger brothers are all more powerful than me, and they have a large number of them. If I go, won't it be sending myself to death?" Du Fei said with a bitter face, looking at the wordless heavenly book.

  "Haha, kid, I thought you were quite clever usually, but at the critical moment, you became stupid. You didn't get your brain damaged by a door, did you?" The words on the Wordless Heavenly Book were crooked and upside down.

  Du Fei saw the words written on the wordless heavenly book and scolded in a bad tone: "I think you're the one who's been spoiled by the door, you say it so easily, then can you come up with a solution for me?"

  "Goodness gracious, you're indeed foolish. You shouldn't have forgotten those people who caught you before so quickly." The Wordless Heavenly Book wrote.

  Du Fei's face lit up with joy as he saw the words on the wordless heavenly book: "Oh, I remember now. Look at my brain." As he spoke, Du Fei patted his own forehead and continued: "Let's go find 'help' together." Du Fei looked at the wordless heavenly book with a confident expression...
