Chapter 135: Wind-Fixing Orb Upgrade, Wind God's Sixth Test (Two-in-One)
Realizing physical attacks were the key against the Windless Blue Spirit Bird, Mo Hui locked eyes with Pidgeot. Their telepathic bond conveyed his plan instantly; Pidgeot nodded subtly.
They split apart. Mo Hui's second soul ring flared, *Lightning Flash* transforming him into a cyan streak, rocketing toward the bird. With *Delta Airflow*'s 200% speed boost and *Lightning Flash*'s 300%, his velocity—now twelve times his base—rivaled Soul Douluo agility specialists and outpaced some Titled Douluo.
Blitzing behind the bird, Mo Hui's *Self-Motivation*-swollen fist unleashed a *Storm Fist*. Though the bird's wind immunity nullified the fist's energy, the physical force nudged its massive frame forward. Mo Hui's goal wasn't damage but distraction, buying Pidgeot time to charge.
Like a comet, Mo Hui darted around the bird, each strike shifting its position. Meanwhile, Pidgeot, wreathed in cyan flames, glowed like a sun, nearly blinding. The bird's expression hardened, summoning a cyan armor-like shield.
"Beep~" Pidgeot launched, a cyan beam warping space, slamming into the armored bird. Mo Hui, after a brief charge, merged his own cyan light into Pidgeot's flames, amplifying the assault. The dazzling impact forced the bird back, its eyes wide with disbelief. *How could these ants wield such power?*
Mo Hui's *Divine Bird Slam*, a fifth soul skill from a 20,000-year Wind Chasing Eagle King, was potent alone. Paired with *Lightning Flash*'s speed and *Self-Motivation*'s 200% boost to strength and soul purity, it was devastating. *Delta Airflow* further enhanced their momentum, making their combined strike a threat even to 100,000-year soul beasts.
The bird's wind immunity negated energy damage, but the physical force strained its defenses. It banked on outlasting Mo Hui's soul power. Yet, in the cyan space's wind-rich environment, *Delta Airflow* let Mo Hui absorb ambient energy, sustaining his assault. As *Self-Motivation*'s boost peaked, their cyan flames swelled, shattering the bird's armor and piercing its body.
"Huhu~" Mo Hui and Pidgeot's flames faded, but they stayed alert, eyeing the bird. With a shrill cry, it collapsed, its fall shaking the space. Exhausted mentally from the intense clash, they sighed in relief.
"The Wind-Fixing Bead!" Mo Hui remembered, eager for his prize. The bird's Titled Douluo-level immunity suggested a superior bead compared to Dean Feng's, which capped at Soul Emperor attacks.
Approaching, he froze. The bird's body dissolved into breezes and a cyan light ball. His Wind-Fixing Bead flew out, absorbing the breezes, etching new patterns onto itself. Once complete, it returned to Mo Hui's hand, leaving the light ball hovering.
"It's… stronger!" Mo Hui marveled. The bead, once limited to Soul Emperor wind attacks, now countered Soul Douluo-level ones—a two-tier leap. Previously near-obsolete, it now enabled training in harsher, wind-rich environments, boosting his cultivation speed.
Curious about the light ball, Mo Hui peered through Pidgeot's eyes but couldn't discern its nature. As he stepped closer, it shot toward him, matching Pidgeot's speed. "Not good!" Unable to dodge, he slashed with an air blade, but the ball, ethereal, ignored it.
"Beep~" Pidgeot intercepted, the ball merging into its head as a wind-like rune. "Pidgeot!" Mo Hui cried, fearing harm.
A neutral voice echoed in their minds: "Defeat the 100,000-year-old Windless Blue Spirit Bird, and the sixth test of the Wind God is completed! Wind God affinity increased by 20%."
Mo Hui gaped. *Wind God's sixth test?* Realization hit: they'd stumbled into the Wind God's inheritance site, and the bird was its guardian. Fear crept in—killing a divine guardian could bring consequences.
The cyan space quaked. From the wind elements, a new Windless Blue Spirit Bird formed, identical but stronger, glaring with vengeful fury. It charged.
Mo Hui and Pidgeot, drained from their last fight, shared a glance: *Run!* Mo Hui leapt onto Pidgeot, gripping tight. Pidgeot's wings flared, turning them into a cyan streak that vanished into the wind element cluster.
The bird, bound to the space, stopped at the cluster's edge, fuming helplessly. Mo Hui and Pidgeot, shielded by *Delta Airflow*, burst out, fleeing without pause. *Lightning Flash*'s bursts pushed their speed, fearing pursuit. After half an hour, they slowed, certain the bird couldn't follow.
"Huh~ Seems it won't chase," Mo Hui panted, relieved. "Let's land, Pidgeot, and recover soul power."
"Beep~" Pidgeot descended from 30,000 to 4,000 meters. Mo Hui maximized *Delta Airflow*, assimilating wind energy to replenish himself. His tweaks now let *Delta Airflow* feed energy back to him, though far less effectively than in the cyan space—a tempting cultivation spot if not for the bird.
Soul power restored, they landed, only to find an ocean below. A nearby island offered respite, easing Mo Hui's dismay.
