The giant beast measured approximately ten meters in length, its height and width nearly equal to its length. Its entire body exhibited a brownish-yellow hue reminiscent of soil, with thick, massive scales that were elongated and closely arranged, layer upon layer covering its form. It had four legs and no tail, while its head resembled that of a bull, with narrow, elongated eyes, a downward-facing nose, and a wide mouth. Its ears were not visible, yet it seemed capable of hearing sounds. The overall impression it gave was one of immense weight. As soon as it appeared, it emitted a sound similar to a cow's moo, its eyes filled with anticipation as it fixed its gaze on the world projection floating above Qian Mo's head, as if eager to charge directly into it and merge into one.
"The Ancient Rock Beast... is considered a powerful lineage. In ancient times, they predominantly inhabited mountainous and highland areas. They are not fond of fighting and prioritize defense, leaning more towards physical strength. I wonder if its abilities have mutated towards soul defense after becoming a Specter. If that is the case, it would indeed be a good choice; after all, the Embalmer lineage often finds itself in peril while battling Specters. Having it would be like carrying a sturdy shield. However, its intelligence is somewhat lacking... it cannot speak human language and expresses emotions too overtly..."
Xuanmu looked up at the Rock Beast and directly stated its origins, characteristics, and advantages and disadvantages, showcasing his extensive knowledge. However, by the end of his explanation, he seemed somewhat dissatisfied and shook his head.
Just as he finished speaking, the distant dark sky appeared to be ignited by flames, rapidly transforming into a deep red hue that looked stunning from afar. The red approached swiftly; it was barely visible before it was upon them. A sharp bird call echoed in everyone's ears. Upon closer inspection, a giant bird about three meters long with a wingspan of approximately ten meters hovered high above the ground.
This giant bird was entirely crimson, its call reminiscent of a swallow's chirp. Its eyes were narrow and deep red even at the pupils. Only its beak and talons were pure black. Its tail was short and enveloped in flames, making it difficult to see clearly. Upon its appearance, it let out a cry directed at the Rock Beast, exuding an overwhelming sense of intimidation. The Rock Beast seemed genuinely frightened and actually took a step back, unwilling to confront it directly.
"The Flame Sparrow—its call resembles that of a swallow; short-tailed and engulfed in flames; both claws and beak are black. It can only be seen in ancient times, residing in volcanic regions where it absorbs volcanic heat energy and possesses extremely high aggression. It is said to carry traces of the Vermilion Bird bloodline! It appears quite intelligent as well; just look at how it scared off the Rock Beast—this indicates its strength! Unfortunately, it cannot communicate... still lacking in intelligence. Let's wait and see..."
Xuanmu merely glanced at it; he still believed that with Qian Mo's talent, they should be able to attract even more powerful Specters!
This waiting period felt somewhat prolonged as the black-clad individuals invited here remained vigilant around them to prevent any interference from the Specters attracted by Qian Mo. The longer the Embalmer could maintain the Embalming Coffin Realm during the first summoning, the greater the chance of attracting powerful Specters!
About half an hour later, voices suddenly rang out from the sky.
"Senior Jiang Chen, you hold the esteemed position as the leader of the Primordial Four Corpses; you have long transcended reincarnation—immortal and indestructible—there is no need for you to rely on the Embalmer. Why must you compete with me?"
"You Wuliao Clan brat! How I act is none of your business. Since you know my name, why not retreat?"
"Haha! Senior, as far as I know, this Embalming Boundary Soul relies entirely on the Embalmer's choice. Although you are powerful, the Four Corpses are only strong in physicality—they lack souls altogether. Now you are left with only remnants of your soul while my Wuliao Clan excels at soul cultivation and aligns perfectly with the Embalmer's methods. Therefore, I do not believe I have no chance."
"Hmph! If not for the constraints of rules, I would have fought you right now!"
