Below the cliff were two Chi Tigers, and on top of the cliff was another Chi Tiger. At this moment, the Chi Tiger on top of the cliff leapt up again, seemingly aiming for the Eagle's Nest above rather than the Spiritual Medicine.
The eagles in the sky obviously realized the intention of this Chi Tiger, so they hurriedly launched an attack against it.
The Chi Tiger on the cliff was not as agile as it was on the ground, so its body was very restricted, and it could only barely retaliate when attacked.
However, the two Chi Tigers on the ground were being brutally beaten by the Giant Python. Although the bodies of Chi Tigers were incredibly tough, with fur that was impervious to swords and guns, when they fought with the Giant Python, its tail could swipe a Chi Tiger away over ten meters.
Even the steel-bodied Chi Tiger couldn't withstand such blows, and soon they were powerless, finding it difficult even to walk.
When it comes to sheer strength, these Chi Tigers were definitely not a match for the Giant Python; Ling Zhenfei had experienced its terror before.
Just when Ling Zhenfei thought the battle was about to end, suddenly there came a series of roars from afar, so numerous that Ling Zhenfei felt his hairs stand on end.
Ling Zhenfei instinctively jumped onto a nearby large tree, where the dense leaves concealed him well, ensuring he wouldn't be discovered by anyone.
Not long after Ling Zhenfei climbed the tree, he heard the sound from afar and then saw a large group of Chi Tigers heading towards the cliff.
There were at least dozens of them, and once at the base of the cliff, they surrounded the Giant Python.
That formation was truly terrifying; dozens of Chi Tigers roared together, an intimidating force indeed that scared Ling Zhenfei. If he were to be besieged by these Chi Tigers, he would surely die.
But the Giant Python was unfazed; having cultivated for many years, its body was akin to steel, so it feared nothing, opening its mouth wide with terrifying red signal flicking out.
Ling Zhenfei felt his heart pounding – this battle was getting more interesting, uncertain who would prevail in the end.
Just as Ling Zhenfei was contemplating, the group of Chi Tigers launched an attack on the Giant Python.
As the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant," yet the Giant Python was indeed formidable, its tail swiping and sending smart Chi Tigers flying. But things wouldn't end so simply.
Those Chi Tigers, with their thick skins and strong bodies, didn't mind being swiped a few times. They clawed and bit at the Giant Python, soon leaving it with blood marks all over.
The Giant Python howled in pain, its body rolling continuously, smashing rocks on the cliff.
The momentum of the Chi Tigers frightened the small eagles, and even seven to eight of them couldn't stop the impact of a single Chi Tiger climbing to the Eagle's Nest.
The Eagle's Nest was enormous, akin to a large cave on the cliff, with grass laid inside.
At this time, there was no eagle guarding the cave, making it easy for the Chi Tiger to conquer the nest.
Inside, there were many eagle eggs, either shattered by the Chi Tiger or rolled down the cliff.
Ling Zhenfei was shocked; this was a major disaster, the Giant Eagle had taken a Chi Tiger's child, and now the Chi Tigers were here with a squad, fighting fiercely.
Now the Chi Tiger had smashed all the eagle eggs. This was a significant confrontation; from now on, the eagles and Chi Tigers on Spirit Mountain would be irreconcilable enemies, fighting whenever they met.
Wondering what the Giant Eagle would do upon its return, Ling Zhenfei suddenly heard a sound like thunder from the sky; it turns out the Giant Eagle had returned.
This Giant Eagle was truly immense, with wings like airplane wings, launching an attack at the Chi Tiger directly.
The Giant Eagle was immensely powerful, attacking the Chi Tiger in the Eagle's Nest.
The Chi Tiger knew it was no match and tried to dodge, but where could it escape on the cliff? It was swiftly knocked off the cliff by the Giant Eagle's wing, plummeting tens of meters down.
However, when it landed, the Chi Tiger rolled across the ground and then stood up again, seemingly unharmed, resembling a cat in its agility.
The powerful air currents swept across the cliff; the Giant Eagle perched above the cliff looked at the shattered eggs in the cave, seemingly going mad, screeching before diving down to attack the Chi Tigers.
The Giant Eagle's strength was overwhelming, pouncing on the Chi Tiger and biting off its eye in one swift motion.
But An Chi Tiger wasn't to give in, pouncing at the Giant Eagle, knowing that if it could wrestle it to the ground, the Eagle's attacking power would be greatly reduced.
Ling Zhenfei was very surprised; now both eagle and snake with An Chi Tiger seemed to be fighting to the death, a no holds barred struggle.
The small eagles in the sky became brave under the Giant Eagle's lead, and launched attacks against the Chi Tigers.
More than thirty Chi Tigers were fighting a Giant Python, a Giant Eagle, and seven or eight small eagles; this battle was incredibly fierce.
Feathers flew wildly and Chi Tiger blood flowed; the invulnerable Chi Tigers couldn't withstand the Giant Eagle's claws.
Ling Zhenfei was astonished, but suddenly realized the current situation; both sides were blinded by rage, perhaps now was a perfect time to gather medicine.
With this thought, Ling Zhenfei quietly moved towards the cliff, but the fight was too intense for him to move unnoticed, it was practically impossible.
Even though Ling Zhenfei's cultivation technique was incredibly strong, he dared not face these powerful spiritual beasts head-on, choosing to hide temporarily to avoid becoming the common target of these creatures.
By now, the battle was nearing its end; more than five Chi Tigers had been killed, and the number of wounded was even greater, naturally two small eagles were also killed, with others injured, some even having lost feathers, unable to fly.
All the Chi Tigers were wounded when suddenly a tiger roar was heard; even if Ling Zhenfei didn't understand beast language, he could guess it was probably a signal to retreat.
Indeed, after the roar, the Chi Tigers started running away in all directions, attempting to escape. But of course the eagles wouldn't agree, having their nest destroyed and two of their young killed, they couldn't let it end like this.
The Giant Eagle, leading its small eagles, chased after the Chi Tigers.
In fact, the one most severely injured was the Giant Python; from the start, it had blocked the attack of more than thirty Chi Tigers by itself, with no part of its body spared.
Due to the pain, the Giant Python had knocked loose a pile of rocks, and it was now moving very slowly. After the Giant Eagle left, the Giant Python didn't pursue, instead slowly returning to its Snake Cave.
