Water Margin: My 108 Heroes Come from All Heavens

"Is this Jin Kingdom a place fit for human habitation?"

Liang Shan wiped the cold sweat from his brow and couldn't help but complain.

The hazy, demonic fog outside, the scattered bones, and the distant roars of demonic beasts sent chills down his spine just thinking about them.

thought for a moment.

He took out the roll of silk map that Zhao Gou had given him and unfurled it with a whoosh.

The territory of the Jin Kingdom was marked on the map, making Liang Shan's face grow increasingly grim.

Northernmost point: Lion Camel Ridge.

Southwest side: Moyun Cave.

The eastern marshland: the Spider Cave.

Besides.

There's also White Bone Ridge, Fire Cloud Abyss, Black Wind Mountain...

Every location was marked with scarlet ink: a gathering place for top-tier demons.

"Holy shit..."

Liang Shan's lips twitched violently, and he couldn't help but swear: "Was I really randomly teleported to Lion Camel Ridge?!"

From what I remember.

Lion Camel Ridge is extremely dangerous.

Known as a place of eight hundred miles of corpses and blood, and teeming with demons, he was discovered by a Grandmaster-level demon the moment he landed.

If it weren't for a quick reaction.

They'll probably be eliminated immediately upon landing.

Not far away.

Lin Daiyu noticed Liang Shan's unusual behavior and raised an eyebrow, asking, "Have you encountered danger so quickly?"

Fahai's eyes widened like copper bells.

He asked rather enthusiastically, "Second brother, should I lend a hand?"

"No, no need."

Liang Shan waved his hand, refusing the two men's help.

They had only just arrived in the Jin Kingdom.

If I can't even solve such a small problem, what kind of undercover agent am I?!

Then.

He took out the transformation pill that Zhao Gou had given him.

The pills were round and smooth.

It feels warm to the touch.

It looks extraordinary.

"Transformation Pill?"

Fahai's expression changed slightly, and he was extremely surprised: "I never expected that you would have such good fortune to obtain such an ancient and mutated elixir."

"A mutated elixir?"

Liang Shan was stunned for a moment.

"This kind of pill can completely change the form of a race, transforming it into a demon race, but it is extremely random and uncontrollable."

Fahai nodded.

"Unable to specify race?"

Liang Shan's expression was rather unpleasant.

Looking down at the pill in his palm, he had initially thought that this Transformation Pill was a premium item that could transform one into a dragon or a gluttonous beast, but it turned out to be a random blind box.

But things have come to this point.

He had been tricked by Zhao Gou into coming here.

As a human, it's basically a dead end; the only option is to transform into a demon.

"Let's take a gamble!"

Liang Shan gritted his teeth, and with a thought, threw the pill into his mouth.

Simultaneously.

He screamed inwardly and silently prayed for an SSR.

I don't ask for anything else, I just want to be able to transform into a mythical beast like a Qilin, a true dragon, a phoenix, a Taotie, or a golden crow.

The elixir melts instantly upon entering the mouth.

A surge of scalding heat rushed down his throat and into his limbs and bones, causing his skin, muscles, and bones to tremble violently, his flesh to churn, as if countless ants were crawling under his skin.

Followed by.

A dazzling golden light began to emanate from Liang Shan's body, and his form began to twist and change uncontrollably.

Muscle contraction, bone remodeling, hair overgrowth...

In just a few breaths.

The original 1.8-meter-tall human body has disappeared.

Instead.

It is a large eagle with entirely black feathers, a hooked iron beak, and a wingspan of two meters.

Its feathers were glossy and its claws were sharp as knives, but its eyes held a lifeless, vacant look.

"quack?"

Liang Shan instinctively called out, his voice hoarse and rough, completely unlike a human accent.

He tried to lift his paw.

His gait was stiff yet arrogant, swaying from side to side as he walked, his neck stretching and retracting, showing no regard for family or friends, and extremely arrogant.

"..."

The entire room fell silent.

Xiao Qiang tilted his head and circled the big black eagle, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Woof woof!"

Fairy Jinghuan covered her mouth, trying hard to suppress her laughter, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

A rare, barely suppressed smile appeared on Lin Daiyu's usually aloof face, her eyes crinkling as she said, "Quite impressive."

"That's it, this account is ruined!"

Liang Shan looked up to the sky and howled in despair, unable to shed a tear.

A true dragon.

Taotie.

Phoenix.

Golden Crow.

Not a single one came out.

They randomly turned him into a silly goose?!

"Accept reality."

Lin Daiyu's cool and aloof expression concealed an irrepressible smile: "Eagles are quite good too. They fly fast, and you can run away when you can't win a fight."

Liang Shan: "..."

Fahai stroked his chin.

He carefully examined Liangshan's feathers and commented in a serious tone, "The meat is firm, the bones are hard, and the feathers are dense. If it were slow-roasted over charcoal and sprinkled with cumin and chili, the taste should be quite good."

talking.

He swallowed hard.

"???"

Liang Shan's eyes widened, and his black feathers suddenly burst open.

I consider you a brother.

You actually want to eat me?!

"Well, it's a miracle I didn't turn into a maggot."

He sighed and stopped worrying about his racial identity.

At least.

He is now a demon.

There's no need to worry about being hunted down by the demon race if you go out.

"I'm going out to kill that Grandmaster-level demon."

He stood up.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

They left the inner space of the Immortal Jade.

……

Lion Camel Ridge.

In the bushes.

"How did that human who suddenly appeared disappear?"

A giant black-maned wolf, over two meters tall, stared at the open space ahead, its face full of confusion.

Sudden.

rustling—

The withered branches and fallen leaves were brushed aside.

Liang Shan's figure appeared in the same spot.

This is also a drawback of the Immortal Jade Space; once you enter it, you cannot move and will only reappear in the same spot.

that's it.

One eagle and one wolf.

They gazed at each other from a distance of three zhang (approximately 10 meters).

If it were an ordinary lesser demon, it would have been paralyzed with fear by the wolf demon's grandmaster-level aura.

But Liangshan...

On the surface, he remained calm, his eyes scrutinizing the wolf demon with a cool gaze.

The two remained deadlocked for a long time.

Liang Shan spoke first: "Hey, Brother Wolf, have you eaten?"

The sound squeezed out from the eagle's beak, carrying a hoarse and rough quality, which did indeed sound somewhat like that of a demon.

The wolf demon was taken aback.

He had lived for hundreds of years, and this was the first time he had ever encountered such a way of greeting.

"Which mountain are you from?"

He sheathed his fangs and asked tentatively.

"I just came from the south and am new here. I was just about to pay my respects to the mountain. Judging from your imposing presence, Brother Wolf, you must be the overlord of Lion Camel Ridge, right?"

Liang Shan cawed twice, subtly flattering the man.

Upon hearing this, the wolf demon unconsciously straightened his back a bit.

It does have a reputation in Lion Camel Ridge, and it commands about a hundred lesser demons.

Although not top-tier.

But he's still considered a significant figure.

This eagle demon can talk, and it looks much better.

"No problem, no problem."

The wolf demon grinned: "My name is Black Wind, the chief patrolman of Lion Camel Ridge, responsible for the outer 300 li area. What's your name, brother?"

Liang Shan's expression shifted slightly.

Chief Patrol Officer?

This official position sounds impressive, but in reality, it's just a security captain.

"My name is Zhao Gou, and I come from the Moyun Cave..."

He cackled twice more, introducing himself.

"So you're a high-ranking demon from the Cloud-Piercing Cave! My apologies for not recognizing you!"

The wolf demon stepped forward, speaking with obvious familiarity, "Brother, your aura is clearly extraordinary. Come on, come on, let's go to my cave for a couple of drinks. I'll treat you to a welcome feast!"
