Since there were no more overwhelming crows ahead, the team below continued moving forward.

However, after a while, something frightening happened again.

They saw the sky on the left once again filling up with an overwhelming number of crows, whose quantity was astonishing, and they emitted a grating cawing sound.

"Everyone, quickly suppress your Life Aura, do not let those crows detect us!"

Seeing the crows appear, the person in charge shouted loudly again, making sure the Martial Artists below weren't discovered by the crows in the sky.

Although the crows appearing in the sky weren't emitting Killing Aura at the moment, the person in charge couldn't determine whether the crows might attack people.

If those crows really flew down to attack the Martial Artists, he would definitely be punished; he didn't dare to take the risk.

Therefore, the safest method now was for all Martial Artists to lie down and suppress their Life Aura, preventing them from being discovered by the overwhelming crows in the sky.

Everyone immediately lay down and suppressed their Life Aura, avoiding detection by the dense crows above.

Duan Gujin projected his Divine Sense outward, trying to find out if someone was controlling the actions of those crows.

Moments later, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"I found it!"

It turned out that Duan Gujin had identified a crow among the dense flock that was emitting a strong Killing Aura, significantly larger than the others, and its eyes, unlike the other crows, were blood-red.

He had previously thought all the crows in the sky were Blood Crows without searching each one individually.

Now he thought to search for anomalies among the crows, and indeed he found one.

He extended his Divine Sense, trying to find more Blood Crows.

But after a while, he didn't find anything new.

"Could it be that there's only that one Blood Crow in the sky? Or are all these crows actually spies?"

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered with thought; he felt it was necessary to find out the truth.

With a thought, he took out a Long Bow and long arrows from his storage ring.

He bent the bow and fitted an arrow, locking his Divine Sense onto that one Blood Crow.

Moments later, he shot the arrow infused with Primordial Power towards that Blood Crow.

Whoosh!

The arrow he shot, infused with all his Primordial Power, was so fast that it twisted the nearby Void intensely.

Some people nearby frowned at Duan Gu Jinzhao's action, but they remained silent.

They saw Duan Gu Jinzhao shooting an arrow into the sky; some thought he was firing a signal flare, others thought he just wanted to test his archery skills.

Those present didn't realize that Duan Gu Jinzhao's shot was aimed at that one Blood Crow in the sky.

Duan Gujin locked his Divine Sense onto that Blood Crow in the sky, his brows deeply furrowed, until he saw the Blood Crow was hit by the long arrow and penetrated through the body, then he exhaled a breath of relief.

"I finally hit it!"

The body of the Blood Crow, hit by Duan Gujin's arrow poisoned with Hell Ice Flower, quickly turned into ice in mid-air, then fell to the ground and turned into ashes.

With the elimination of the Blood Crow, the originally orderly flying crows in the sky scattered in all directions.

This time, everyone saw the crows in space making cawing sounds, then dispersing in all directions, completely different from the first time they saw them flocking together in one direction.

"what's the deal with those crows? Is it true that they disperse after just one arrow is fired?"

Many people guessed that the abnormal behavior of the crows was likely related to the arrow Duan Gujin had just shot, but they couldn't understand why the crows in the sky would disperse after Duan Gujin fired an arrow. What was the reason behind it?

"Get the person who was shooting the arrow just now over here, I have something to ask him!"

The people from Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce also noticed the arrow Duan Gujin had fired earlier. They initially thought someone was disobeying orders, but they didn't expect that after the arrow hit a crow, the rest of the crows in the sky dispersed.

Thus, the members of Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce wanted to learn the truth from the archer, so they called over Duan Gujin.

"You, come here!"

The person in charge called out to Duan Gujin.

"Do you need me for something?"

Duan Gujin was somewhat puzzled.

"Our Chamber's people want to know why you fired that arrow just now?"

An elder from the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce asked.

Hearing the tone of the other party's speech, Duan Gujin felt displeased, but upon reflection, he thought it highly possible that the Blood Crow Demon was in the area. He felt it was necessary to warn the people from Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Duan Gujin let out a breath and said, "Just now, I sensed that the aura of that one crow was completely different from the others. I suspected that crow was the leader of the group. So, I shot an arrow at that crow. I thought, if I could kill that crow leader, the other crows would retreat immediately. This is called 'Capture the Leader to Defeat the Enemy'! I remember reading about such crow leaders in a Classic. This type of crow leader is called Blood Crow, and it feeds on human flesh! When you suddenly see so many crows in the sky, you need to watch out if there are Blood Crows among them! If there is a Blood Crow, you must find it and do whatever it takes to eliminate it!"

After hearing Duan Gujin's explanation, the elder from the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce nodded slightly.

"So that's it!"

"Yes, I've said all that needs to be said. Maybe you don't know what a Blood Crow is, but I can tell you, it is a terrifying Demon Beast that lives on human flesh. The more human flesh it consumes, the stronger it becomes! In Jiuzhou Continent, there are some Spirit Masters who control Blood Crows and commit evils!"

Duan Gujin explained.

"Oh, now I understand!"

After hearing Duan Gujin's explanation, the elder from the Chamber conveyed his response to the people inside the sedan.

"There's such a thing? How come I've never heard of it?" The person inside the sedan was utterly astounded.

Upon pondering, the elder replied, "Jiuzhou Continent is so vast, there are indeed some Demon Beasts we have never heard of before. My stance is to act cautiously. If we do encounter a Blood Crow, we will shoot it down!"

"Okay, then follow that man's advice!" the person inside the sedan said.

"As you command!"

The elder then ordered some archers in the team to carefully look for Blood Crows whenever they encounter a flock of crows.

The archers nodded in response upon hearing this.

"Let's continue moving forward!"

Seeing no crows nearby, the person in charge commanded the team to continue moving forward.

Returning to the team, Duan Gujin let out a breath, knowing he had fulfilled his duty in informing them.

"I hope the people from the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce have heard of Blood Crows. If they really encounter a Blood Crow Demon, who knows how many will die!"

His eyelids flickered rapidly. For some reason, he felt an ominous premonition deep within.
