The Fire Crow in death appears to be a rather robust Ash Crow.
Both are from the same clan, but some Ash Crows are innately stronger and well-developed. They foster Essence Qi, enabling them to activate the special abilities within their bloodlines, and thus transform into Fire Crows.
Among the Fire Crows, the strongest individuals can possess certain intelligence, cast Arts of Magic, and become Demon Spirits.
The number of these demon beasts living in the Sinking Sun Sea seems to be exploding recently, forcing the Pioneering Bureau of Xuanye City to offer a high reward of fifty Good Deeds for one Fire Crow.
However, there are usually dozens of Ash Crows guarding around a Fire Crow, so to kill one Fire Crow is tantamount to dealing with dozens or even hundreds of Ash Crows, which is like doing two jobs for one bounty.
