"Alright, I'm fine! I feel completely relaxed and incredibly refreshed!"
Tu An's recovery was like a shot of adrenaline, eliciting excited shouts from the demon tribe.
"Yo!"
With a high-pitched cry!
Tu An revealed his true form! He was a roc, over thirty meters long, with wingspans reaching tens of meters! He looked incredibly terrifying! Especially his surging demonic energy, which changed the color of the sky!
"Boss, I'm here!"
"My blade is fast, it can definitely lop off your wings in one go!"
Jin let out a low growl, holding a long saber with both hands, and struck fiercely at Tu An's wings!
"Scram!" Tu An batted him away with a wing, enraged, "Are you sick in the head?"
Jin felt wronged, "You said if Chen Nan developed an antidote for the avian plague, you'd cut off your wings and give them to him..."
Tu An's eyes turned cold, "Did I say something like that? Did you mishear?"
"Did I mishear?" Jin suddenly felt panicked! Seeing the coldness in Tu An's eyes, Jin quickly said, "Boss, I didn't mishear, I remembered it wrong! Uh, I said, *if* Chen Nan can develop an antidote for the avian plague, then I'll chop off my wings and give them to him!"
As he finished speaking, he transformed into his true form, a blazing eagle!
*Pfft, pfft!*
With the sound of blood spurting, Jin severed his own wings! Seeing the two eagle wings, each over ten meters long, Chen Nan suddenly felt that the demon tribe was truly ruthless! But! Roast wings from a blazing eagle tasted really good!
------
The Myriad Demon Den has been unsealed! The demons here have gained their freedom! During the forty-plus days of isolation, over three thousand demons died from the avian plague. Many things have happened during this time! But for the demons here! The most touching thing was that a human named Chen Nan, who risked his life to save them... Chen Nan had won everyone's respect!
By the campfire, after Tu An had bestowed rewards, he looked at Chen Nan, "Kid, our Myriad Demon Den owes you a favor. If you need anything, just ask!"
"Including leaving this place!"
Just as Chen Nan was about to speak, an eagle's cry, piercing the heavens, came from the distant west. Immediately, Lu Gu arrived, breaking through the air! As he landed, he transformed into human form, his body covered in pustules! He was very weak, but seeing everyone gathered together, their faces filled with joy, he knew Chen Nan must have developed an antidote for the avian plague!
Lu Gu let out a booming laugh, "I knew you could do it, kid!"
Chen Nan said, "Come, open your mouth!"
Lu Gu was a little bewildered! But he still opened his mouth! Then, Chen Nan bit his fingertip, and a drop of blood entered Lu Gu's body! His blood contained antibodies for the avian plague, and any demon infected with it could be cured by drinking his blood! For the demon tribe, he was like Tang Sanzang!
"What's the situation with the Divine Tree?" Tu An asked.
Lu Gu said gravely, "The situation at the Divine Tree is more serious than we imagined. When I arrived, there were already thousands of infected. I applied the rules Chen Nan devised to the Divine Tree, and while it had some effect!"
"But there are too many demons there, and the effect is minimal!"
"And by the time I arrived, nearly ten thousand demon tribesmen had already died or been injured!"
Tu An had expected the situation at the Divine Tree to be worse than he imagined, but he never expected nearly ten thousand tribesmen to have died or been injured by the time Lu Gu arrived! That would have been about ten days ago. As for now... he dared not imagine what the situation was like at the Divine Tree!
Thinking of this, Tu An stood up and bowed to Chen Nan, "Please, Brother Chen Nan, save my demon tribesmen!"
"Then let's go!"
Chen Nan held a piece of roasted meat in his hand! When he learned of the avian plague, he never intended to stay out of it! Because this concerned all living beings under heaven! If he had the ability, he would do it without hesitation! Of course, he also had some selfish motives! If he could resolve this avian plague, he would become a benefactor to the demon tribe. If he encountered any trouble in the future, this could become a great asset! More friends meant more paths! He understood this principle!
"By the way!" Chen Nan suddenly said, "Senior Tu An, if your abilities allow, I hope you can help me look after those guys on Nirvana Mountain!" He had a deep impression of those guys!
"Alright!" Tu An agreed immediately!
"Yo!"
With a high-pitched bird cry!
Tu An transformed into his true form, carrying Chen Nan, and tore through the night sky, heading towards the distant west! Tu An was a roc! But not a golden-winged roc! Yet his speed was very fast! By Chen Nan's estimation, although not faster than light, traveling ten thousand miles a day was certainly not a problem!
Chen Nan, on Tu An's back, experienced the scenery and vastness of the demon realm! Countless mountains stood tens of thousands of feet high! There were also countless rivers comparable to oceans! And many monstrous beasts as large as mountains! Fortunately, he was riding on Tu An's back. If he were alone, he didn't think he could survive traversing this place! At the same time, he also felt a sense of concern!
"I wonder if Nie Yao and the other seven have managed to leave here alive!" When he decided to stay, he had already prepared for the worst! If he had known that the avian plague could be resolved, he would not have let the seven girls leave first! Now, he could only hope they reached the human realm!
------
Seven days later!
Evening!
The setting sun dyed the western clouds red, making the sky look like it had been set ablaze! And in the west, a towering ancient tree, tens of thousands of feet high, could be seen! The tree looked like a giant umbrella, covering the sky and blocking out the sun! The tree exuded a verdant green glow, forming a stark contrast with the bloody sunset! Chen Nan knew! Ahead lay the territory of the Great Roc Demon Emperor, one of the Four Emperors! Within it lived an supreme existence at the pinnacle of the demon realm! He heard that the Golden-winged Roc was a person of great loyalty and righteousness, so Chen Nan was not so afraid! He was afraid the other party would be an unpredictable fellow! If that were the case, this trip would be very risky!
Because Tu An was deeply trusted by the Golden-winged Roc, he was not mistreated upon arriving at the Divine Tree and was directly led to the residence of the Golden-winged Roc, Yan Guang! The Divine Tree sounded like a tree, but on it, there was a world of its own, with many residences built! Yan Guang lived in a residence built on the topmost branch!
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Tu An bowed to the middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He wore a golden robe, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, exuding an aura of world-ending power! He was Yan Guang, the supreme king of birds! The only golden-winged roc in the immortal realm! If one were to ask who was the fastest in the immortal realm! The golden-winged roc would claim second place, and no one would dare claim first! However, at this moment, red spots had already appeared on his face!
Yan Guang looked at Tu An and said weakly, "Little fellow Lu Gu said that your place was also infected with the avian plague. If that's the case, why aren't you staying in the Myriad Demon Den? What are you doing at the Divine Tree?"
Tu An replied, "Your Majesty, the avian plague in our Myriad Demon Den has been resolved!"
Yan Guang's pupils trembled, and for a moment, he thought he was hallucinating, "The avian plague in the Myriad Demon Den is resolved?"
Tu An nodded solemnly, "It was this little brother beside me who resolved the crisis of the avian plague! I brought him here this time to help our demon tribe resolve this catastrophic disaster!" He looked at Chen Nan, his eyes full of doubt, "A mere mortal, can he resolve the crisis of the avian plague?"
