Chapter 4003 Failure

Since it would take some time for the six-headed eagles to catch up with the Black Teeth Swallows, the black-robed men decided to seize this opportunity and take their eggs away.

The Black Teeth Swallows could fly really fast, which effectively bought some time for the black-robed men. In the end, however, escaping from the six-headed eagles would be futile.

It wasn't a question of if but a question of when the six-headed eagles would catch their prey. The amount of time it would take, however, depended purely on luck.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Since they were determined to not let the opportunity slide, the black-robed men climbed up the mountain as fast as they could.

The rest of the black-robed men below held their breath and stared at the top of the pagoda mountain. This was a life and death matter for their race so it was understandable that everyone was nervous.

The leader's son craned his neck in the other direction, towards where the second Black Teeth Swallow had escaped. The female eagle chased after it. The two figures, one big and the other small, shuttled through the mountains!

Puff!

Perhaps the Black Teeth Swallow was nervous, or maybe it was excited after it swallowed the Phoenix Blood. The leader's son couldn't be too sure but those were the only explanations he could come up with as he watched the bird crash onto a pagoda mountain and die.

With its prey dead, the female eagle swooped down and caught the Black Teeth Swallow in its mouth before it promptly turned back towards the direction of its nest.

The leader's son froze in shock when he saw this. "Father! The female eagle is coming back!"

His father was well aware since he also heard the faint thump of the collision and witnessed the Black Teeth Swallow's death. Things weren't going so well since their subordinates were still on the process of climbing the mountain and reached only two-thirds of the height of the mountain.

The situation just grew ten times more dangerous! "Shall we ask them to retreat?" the son asked.

There was a grave look on the leader's face but he shook his head. "If they retreat now, then we will lose our one and only chance."

The Black Teeth Swallows were rare treasures in the Supreme Pure Realm and it took them a lot of effort to catch two of them.

If they let this chance go, then they wouldn't have enough time to capture another Black Teeth Swallow for their mission.

The son frowned in worry as he stared at their subordinates who remained on the mountain. "If they don't retreat then they'll..."

There weren't many members of their race, but

ed him.

The six-headed eagle's saliva was terribly powerful and could even corrode the space.

Since there was a long distance between the top of the pagoda mountain and the foot of it, the saliva corroded the space along the way until none of it remained.

Of course, the female eagle already knew this but it only did that to give Elroy a warning.

The black-robed men below couldn't help but feel dejected.

Their plan had failed.

After a moment of silence, the leader turned to his men. "Before we came here, I made it clear to all of you that we would risk our lives to complete our task. I know that it seems as if we have failed and all our efforts have been in vain, but I urge you all to find the strength to try again if you find even the slimmest of chances!"

With their leader's encouragement, all the black-robed men that hid nearby revealed themselves and began moving towards the mountain top.

To go up and try to raid the eagles' nest at that moment was to court death but they did not care. They were ready to risk their lives to complete their mission!

As they approached the mountain top, a low sound suddenly came from the distance.

It seemed someone currently ran at such a high speed that it caused the ground to tremble.

When the black-robed men looked up, they saw Zen!

"A human being?"

"A human being in the Light Region?"

"What is he doing?"

All of them could only mutter in disbelief as they saw Zen rush towards them like a madman.

Elroy decided to come forward and try to stop him in his tracks, maybe even ask him what caused him to run like this.

However, it was like Zen did not see them. The man simply rushed towards the pagoda mountain and ran his way up the mountain.
