Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

In the deep night, Chen Yuan and Lu Gui quietly flew to within thirty miles of the island and slowly spread their spiritual awareness.

This is a miniature island with a radius of more than ten miles, and Chen Yuan's spiritual sense can just cover it completely.

He immediately spotted the golden scale fruit tree in the center of the island. The tree was about the size of a man's embrace and looked like an ordinary tree, with green leaves all over the tree and six golden pear-like fruits hanging from its branches, the surface of which was covered with dense scales.

A hundred feet away from the golden scale fruit tree were two giant eagles that were extremely majestic. They were two feet long, with iron claws and curved beaks. They were lying on the ground with their wings folded and their eyes slightly closed.

A set of golden feathers were glowing faintly in the inky night, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The pressure of the seventh-level monster was undoubtedly revealed.

The pure golden-feathered eagle royal family has feathers of dazzling golden color.

The feathers of these two golden-winged eagles, one is dark gold and the other is light gold. It is obvious that their bloodlines are somewhat mixed, and their strength is much inferior to that of the pure golden-winged eagle royal family.

Chen Yuan nodded secretly, and then carefully searched the island again. When he found nothing else, he withdrew his spiritual sense.

He turned and nodded to Lu Gui, and the two of them turned around and flew away, soon returning to Wei Changhong and Mr. Song Shi.

Wei Changhong asked: "Fellow Daoist Chen, what's the situation?"

Chen Yuan sighed softly: "What Fellow Daoist Lu said is true, there are indeed two level seven golden-feathered eagles on that island."

Wei Changhong's expression froze, but Mr. Song Shi was not disappointed. He just shook his head and whispered, "Since Fellow Daoist Chen has verified what Brother Lu said, then we should leave."

"If we alarm these two golden-feathered eagles, it will be very bad."

The four of them stopped hanging around and, using the cover of night, fled far away.

It only dives into the sea when the stars set, to avoid being noticed by the golden-winged eagles that may be patrolling the surroundings.

Finally, they returned to the deserted island where they had been waiting and descended upon the light of escape.

No one spoke and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

Wei Changhong suddenly raised his hand and grabbed it. The light green jade pendant appeared in his hand out of thin air. He rubbed it gently, and his eyes became much clearer.

Lu Gui bowed to the three people and said in a deep voice: "I have not considered this matter carefully. We will return without further delay."

"Since the Golden-winged Eagle Clan has sent a second Level 7 Golden-winged Eagle to the island, they may have other plans. We must not stay here for long."

Mr. Songshi agreed, "Yes, the Golden Scale Fruit is indeed precious, but it is not worth even a fraction of our lives. It is better to leave early."

Wei Changhong sighed, "It can only be done this way. It's a pity that the Golden Scale Fruit is wasted. There aren't many of them that are suitable for Jindan cultivators like us to temper our bodies."

Lu Gui turned to look at Chen Yuan: "What do you think, Fellow Daoist Chen?"

The other two also looked over. After returning to the deserted island, Chen Yuan had been silent, looking thoughtful.

Chen Yuan's eyes swept over Lu Gui and the other two, paused for a moment on the jade pendant in Wei Changhong's hand, and said with a smile: "I was just thinking, if we take action against these two golden-feathered eagles, what are our chances of winning."

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and Mr. Songshi laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, you are joking. The golden-winged eagle is a royal family of demon beasts. The four of us can fight one together, and we have some chance, but fighting two at the same time, there is absolutely no chance of winning."

Lu Gui frowned and asked, "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Chen is still planning to get the Golden Scale Fruit?"

"Not to mention the Golden-Feathered Eagle's powerful strength, its speed of escape is even more astonishing."

"Even if we fight to the death and barely defeat these two golden-winged eagles, they will definitely attract the transformed monsters of the golden-winged eagle clan after they escape."

"It might even lead to the Golden-Winged Eagle Clan issuing a royal decree to hunt us down."

"Even if the four of us get the Golden Scale Fruit, we will be unable to move forward in this sea of ​​monsters, and there is no way we can escape back to the Ink Sea."

Wei Changhong also advised: "Fellow Daoist Chen, this golden-feathered eagle is really difficult to deal with, so let's just forget it."

"The golden scale fruit is not yet ripe, so its medicinal effect is a little weak. It's not worth taking such a risk."

This is a bit self-deceptive. Even if the Golden Scale Fruit is not ripe, it has accumulated pure and enormous demonic power. After being refined into a pill, its effect on tempering the body is extremely extraordinary.

Chen Yuan said: "The three Taoist friends have thought it through carefully and every word hits the nail on the head. I fully agree with them."

"But if I am confident that I can kill one golden-winged eagle, and leave the remaining one to you three Taoist friends, can you handle it?"

There was a sudden silence in the field, and the three of them looked at Chen Yuan.

Mr. Songshi shook his head and laughed: "Fellow Daoist Chen, please stop joking. That is a level 7 golden-feathered eagle. Your cultivation is even inferior to it. If you really fight it, you will die."

Wei Changhong also advised: "We all know that you are a physical cultivator with extraordinary strength."

"But that is a member of the royal family of demon beasts, and their bodies are extremely powerful. Fellow Daoist, please do not treat them as ordinary demon beasts. It is better to retreat now."

But Lu Gui hesitated for a long time and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chen, how sure are you?"

Wei Changhong and Mr. Song Shi looked at Lu Gui with surprise in their eyes.

They didn't expect that Lu Gui would actually support Chen Yuan's idea. Those were two golden-winged eagles. How could they joke at this time?
But Lu Gui ignored the gazes of the two people and just stared at Chen Yuan with a serious expression. It was obvious that he was not just asking casually.

Chen Yuan said calmly: "I can't say more, but I'm 70% sure."

"Seventy percent? We can give it a try." Lu Gui nodded slightly. "Are you two serious? Those are two level seven golden-feathered eagles, the royal family of monster beasts!" Mr. Song Shi frowned, looked at Chen Yuan, then looked at Lu Gui, and his voice was filled with dissatisfaction.

A trace of reminiscence flashed across Lu Gui's eyes, and he said slowly: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Songshi. I have sparred with Fellow Daoist Chen once before, and I know his strength best."

"Since he dares to say so, he must be sure he can do it."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Even if you two Daoists don't believe me, you should believe Daoist Lv, right?"

Wei Changhong gritted his teeth and said, "Well, since Fellow Daoist Chen said so, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you!"

Mr. Songshi showed hesitation. Under the gaze of the three people, he sighed and said, "I came here to repay the favor of Daoist Fellow Lu. Since the three Daoists all have this intention, it seems that I have no choice but to agree."

Chen Yuan felt relieved and said seriously, "Don't worry, fellow Taoists. I won't take my own life, let alone your lives, to joke around."

The body-tempering elixir is too rare, so he is determined to get the golden scale fruit on the island.

As long as he gets two golden scale fruits, his physical body will be able to break through the seventh level bottleneck.

When the time comes, your cultivation will be smooth sailing, and you won’t encounter any bottlenecks until you form a baby.

The seventh-level golden-winged eagle seemed difficult to defeat in the eyes of Lu Gui and the other two, but for him, it was not unbeatable.

But since he was the one who did the hard work, the reward of two golden scale fruits seemed a bit low.

Chen Yuan paused for a moment, and then said, "But I have something to say in advance. Since I am the one dealing with a golden-winged eagle alone, the demon pill and materials of this demon will also belong to me. Do the three Taoist friends have any objections?"

Lu Gui and the other two looked at each other and nodded.

What they were eyeing was the golden scale fruit. Although the demon pill and materials of the seventh-level golden-winged eagle were also of extraordinary value, they were not necessary and could be given to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan's words also gave the three of them a lot of confidence. Before they even started, he had already started to think about getting the materials for the Golden Feathered Eagle Demon Pill, and it was obvious that he was very confident.

……

Chen Yuan successfully persuaded Lu Gui and the other two, and it was the early morning of the next day.

The sky was slightly brightening, and a morning sun rose from the sea in the east, dyeing the waves red.

The four of them discussed for a while and decided that daytime was obviously not a good time to take action. The golden-winged eagle could see very far away and the monsters in the sea were more active, making it difficult for them to sneak under the sea surface.

Only by sneaking into the vicinity of the island at night and launching a surprise attack can we gain the initiative.

After the four of them confirmed the details, they sat cross-legged on the island and meditated as they did yesterday. They took turns using their spiritual sense to monitor the surrounding environment, guard against attacks from monsters and beasts, and waited for night to fall.

This is not a place for cultivation. Chen Yuan, Lu Gui and Wei Changhong all closed their eyes to rest and conserve their energy.

Only Mr. Song Shi took out the yellowed book and read it attentively, making annotations with a brush from time to time.

Chen Yuan and the other two were already accustomed to this, so they did not alert Mr. Song Shi and allowed him to recite the scriptures.

The day passed quickly and finally night fell.

The weather is excellent tonight, with no clouds in the sky and the stars shining like water, illuminating the vast ocean.

The four of them had been prepared for this and did not expect that it would be as starless and moonless as yesterday, so they immediately set off for the island.

Staying one more day in the depths of the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Monsters would bring a little more risk. Even though the conditions tonight were not the best, they were not prepared to wait any longer.

The four of them moved at a fairly fast speed and soon arrived within a hundred miles of the island. They dived beneath the sea, with a layer of spiritual light surrounding them, isolating the sea water from outside, and headed towards the island.

Soon, they were twenty miles into the island and their speed slowed down further.

It took a full quarter of an hour before he reached the vicinity of the island. He rushed out of the sea, raised his magic weapon, and headed straight for the two golden-feathered eagles!

Lu Gui pointed and the Fu Hai Ge grew to three meters long. With a light wave, countless blue light blades slashed down, creating a storm of light blades.

Mr. Song Shi was reciting the classics of Confucian sages. A milky white light enveloped his entire body, and he exuded an awe-inspiring righteousness.

The magic weapon Xuanbi drew dots, and strange ink marks with white light flew out, like a net in the sky, locking up the two golden-winged eagles.

This is the unique righteousness of Confucian monks, which can greatly enhance the power of magic weapons.

Wei Changhong took out a crystal bowl, made a hand gesture, and a pool of clear water flew out of the crystal bowl and turned into a vast river, sweeping over.

Chen Yuan summoned the Feiyun Sword, blending in with the light blades, and slashed at the two golden-winged eagles, appearing to be extremely inconspicuous.

It was not until this time that the two golden-winged eagles realized that they were attacked by enemies. They became furious and flew up from the ground with a sharp cry.

They had never imagined that there would be human cultivators who would come to the depths of the Ten Thousand Demons Sea and dare to attack the demon beast royal family!

But their long period of laxity made them react a step slower, and they failed to avoid the attack of the four people in time. They only had time to protect themselves with their wings.

Except for Chen Yuan, the other three chose group attack in order to restrain the extreme speed of the Golden-winged Eagle.

The two golden-feathered eagles were overwhelmed by the attack of the four people, and the valley where they lived was razed to the ground, with their golden feathers flying everywhere, and they were in a state of utter disgrace. (End of this chapter)
