Garuda, as a phoenix bloodline on the same level as Emperor Sparrow, was supposed to possess extremely powerful abilities. Legend has it that in ancient times, Garuda’s wings were golden, capable of covering the sun, while its talons could split mountains and rivers. Its eyes shone with radiant golden light, comparable to the brilliance of the sun and moon. However, in this secret realm today, only the Dragon’s Breath has been passed down to Garuda. Su Yi was very puzzled.
Garuda’s eyes flickered for a moment, then he smiled and said to Su Yi, "Now, I will tell you a story. Listen carefully."
Garuda’s voice trembled slightly as he said in a deep voice, "In ancient times, the Golden Dragon clan, the phoenix clan, and the White Tiger clan were symbols of great power. At that time, I was the most advanced practitioner among the younger generation of the Garuda clan. The Golden Dragon clan also had a naturally talented individual, and I later found out that the little dragon was the sole descendant of the Golden Dragon God.
At that time, the world was vast, and the entire continent was not divided into the current three lands and six states with one sea. On that continent, various divine beasts guarded their territories, occasionally having minor conflicts, but it didn’t cause much contention. However, during a confrontation, I couldn’t stand by and ended up tearing off the dragon bone of that golden dragon. Hahaha."
Even after so many years, Garuda still spoke with pride when reminiscing about the vigorous events of the past.
Su Yi was greatly shocked. The physical power of the Golden Dragon was incredibly strong. The fact that the current Garuda could tear off the dragon bone with just one claw was beyond imagination in terms of temperament and means.
"Senior Garuda, what happened next?"
"I, as a member of the Golden Wing clan, am born from the phoenix clan. The phoenix clan and the Golden Dragon have been allies for generations, jointly guarding the Heaven and Earth Continent. In order to quell the conflicts between the two clans, the Divine Phoenix of the phoenix clan demanded that King Garuda come up with a solution. Otherwise, the two clans would go to war, and there would be no peace in the world."
Su Yi’s heart trembled. The Golden Dragon and Garuda, each mythical creature possessed the power to destroy a whole city. Su Yi grew more and more fearful. If the Golden Dragon clan and Garuda clan went to war, this entire land would cease to exist.
Swallowing hard, Su Yi’s heart pounded. He cautiously asked, "Has the war started?"
"Of course not. The Golden Dragon clan has too many branches, and while my Garuda clan is powerful, we are just a branch of the phoenix clan. The Garuda Lord had no choice but to send me out, to be dealt with by the Golden Dragon clan."
"But I didn’t just surrender. I soared through the skies, covering a distance of 36,000 miles in one flight. I devoured the sun and the moon, crossed mountains and rivers with my feet. Who dared to stop me? In the following days, I even killed a few small dragons effortlessly. This enraged the entire Golden Dragon clan, fearing the outbreak of a battle of mythical creatures. The phoenix clan also sought out my whereabouts in the heavens and earth."
Su Yi’s eyes widened slightly. Garuda’s temperament was quite similar to his own. Roaming between heaven and earth, relying solely on his dauntless spirit, "My fate lies in my own hands, not controlled by fate. I can defy gods and Buddhas." He had developed a slight fondness for Garuda.
The words of the Golden Dragon faltered, seemingly reminiscent of past events. He couldn’t help but get emotional as he said, "I was acquainted with that Golden Dragon since we were young. However, he was ultimately the only bloodline of the Dragon God. As his power grew stronger, his violent nature became more severe. Once, I heard that he was practicing in the Jade Temple Sea and encountered a spiritual dark snake. I happened to be nearby, so I went to catch up with him."
Su Yi raised an eyebrow. In the eyes of the Golden Dragon, the small snake would not be much smaller than a mountain range in the eyes of humans.
Suddenly, the void trembled, the winds surged, and Garuda’s eyes burned with fury as he said, "But he, driven by his selfish desires, wanted to possess the spiritual dark snake and help it with its cultivation. Even after the small snake escaped for nine days and nine nights, it couldn’t escape the clutches of that evil dragon. By the time I arrived, the small snake was barely clinging to life. As members of the mythical creature clans, to stoop so low for the sake of cultivation, my anger flared up instantly. I battled him fiercely for three days and three nights."
During that battle, the world changed its colors, volcanoes erupted, and the mountains and rivers reversed. The Golden Dragon reminisced about the perilous battle, and his eyes occasionally shimmered with light.
Su Yi clapped and cheered. In ancient times, even the mythical creatures were so wicked! Due to his character, he would definitely teach them a lesson.
Garuda was willing to risk the anger of the Gold Dragon clan for a snake he didn’t even know. Su Yi was filled with excitement and fighting spirit as he listened to Garuda’s brave and determined story.
"Garuda, I admire you!" Su Yi said with admiration in his eyes.
Garuda smiled slightly and looked at Su Yi, saying, "After that, I was finally found by the Phoenix clan in the Iron Feng Valley. During this time, the Phoenix clan and the Gold Dragon clan have fought several times, with both sides suffering heavy losses. In order to bring peace, I finally took out my Garuda Golden Pearl and handed it over to the Gold Dragon clan, trading one life for another!"
Garuda’s reserved demeanor also showed great loyalty. Whether it was due to practicing the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique or not, Su Yi always felt a special connection to the ancient mythical creatures and demon beasts. Hearing Garuda sacrificing himself for the safety of his entire clan, Su Yi’s heart trembled slightly.
"Did the Emperor Sparrow Essence Blood sense something?"
"Thank you!" Su Yi couldn’t help but say these words. After saying them, a warm feeling spread through Su Yi’s veins, wrapping him in comfort.
"You have the Emperor Sparrow Essence Blood, so you should have some memories of the Emperor Sparrow," Garuda said with emotion.
"After losing the Garuda Golden Pearl, my cultivation greatly declined and my body lost its power. I became only a wisp of remnant soul. The old Phoenix God found the Dragon Bone at the site of the great battle and extracted and refined the dragon’s aura. He used it as the vessel for my essence. That’s why this space was set up as a separate realm, allowing my remnant soul to survive for so many years."
Su Yi was suddenly enlightened. It turned out that this space was personally set up by the Phoenix God. No wonder it had such immense power. If this space barrier were used for trials, I’m afraid only a few powerful individuals could survive and walk out of it.
Garuda lost the overwhelming power it should have had, and surely felt extremely heartbroken. All of their efforts were handed over to their archenemy. Who could understand that feeling of unwillingness?
Suddenly, Su Yi’s belief shifted. Garuda’s remnants relied on the stored Dragon Breath from the Dragon Bone. Garuda had given the Dragon Breath to Su Yi, and a bad thought started to form in his mind.
"Garuda, what about you…?"
Garuda immediately became serious and said, "As a wisp of soul, I almost brought disaster upon the Phoenix Clan. However, the Phoenix God was able to let go of the past and specially created this secret realm for me. They entrusted me with a task. Human boy, you’ve constantly encountered adventures, even the old dragon gave you the treasure of the Dragon Clan. I naturally believe that you are not an ordinary person."
