Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Chapter 282 Incident



Lü Gui said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Wei. I have been away from this place for several years. I don't know if there has been any incident on the island. How about sneaking into the vicinity of the island first and investigating it before making any plans?"

Mr. Songshi smiled and said: "Brother Lu is right. Let's do it this way."

Wei Changhong also nodded and said: "I was thinking about the golden scale fruit and just wanted to kill the golden-feathered eagle as soon as possible. I forgot to investigate first. Let's do as Brother Lu said."

Chen Yuan saw that the three of them had the same intention, so he naturally would not sing a different tune: "Everything is up to Fellow Daoist Lu."

After the four reached an agreement, they found a deserted island nearby, lowered the escape light, and waited for the night to fall.

Mr. Songshi was not false. The golden-feathered eagle has a very strong vision. Those with pure blood in its clan can even detect invisibility.

According to Lu Gui, this golden-feathered eagle has impure blood, but it is still a golden-feathered eagle after all. In the daytime, it is not difficult to see a hundred miles away. We can only wait until night to approach the island to investigate.

The four people sat cross-legged on the deserted island to meditate and recover the true energy consumed by flying all the way.

As before, Chen Yuan still absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Lu Gui took out a piece of water-attributed top-grade spiritual stone, which was extremely luxurious.

Wei Changhong held a light green jade pendant in his hand, which flashed spiritual light very regularly, and the whole person was wrapped in rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Only Mr. Songshi was different from before. He took out two pieces of wood-attributed top-grade spiritual stones, absorbed the spiritual energy in them, and soon his true energy was fully restored.

He took out the yellowed book that he had not finished reading, and chanted the ancient texts in a low voice, and annotated them with a brush from time to time, which was very fascinated.

As time passed, the true energy in Chen Yuan and the other two people was fully restored.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, the sun was setting, and there were layers of clouds on the horizon, like mountains, continuous and endless, as if frozen in the air, dyed golden red by the sunset.

The turbulent Wan Yao Sea was also covered with a layer of fine golden scales at this time, and the splashing waves turned into thousands of broken gold under the setting sun.

But in the eyes of the Jindan cultivators, this magnificent scenery was just a passing cloud, and they didn't take it to heart.

Mr. Song Shi was still reciting the classics left by the Confucian sages. This should have been passed down from the Jiuxianzhou where Confucianism and Taoism flourished. The other three had never heard of it.

Chen Yuan sounded a little familiar, and there were some similarities with the Confucian classics he had read in his previous life.

But after listening carefully, the principles contained in it were much more profound.

Confucian cultivators have a long lifespan, and what they have experienced and seen far exceeds the Confucian sages in Chen Yuan's previous life. Naturally, their perception of the world of nature and the human world is much more thorough.

Chen Yuan still had time to listen to Mr. Songshi reading, but Lü Gui and Wei Changhong looked serious, looking at the horizon, waiting for the night to fall, their minds were all attracted by the golden scale fruit.

Finally, the sun set, a thin crescent moon rose, the moonlight was dim, but a galaxy crossed the sky, sprinkled the sky with starlight, and illuminated the sea of ​​​​ten thousand monsters.

But not long after, thick clouds floated over, covering the crescent moon and the galaxy.

The sea was immediately splashed with thick ink, and it was pitch black, as if it was an endless and bottomless abyss that could swallow everything.

If a mortal was here, he would definitely be scared out of his wits.

But this was the moment the four had been waiting for for a long time, and they all stood up.

Mr. Songshi, who had been reading, wrote a few lines on the scroll, put away the ancient book and brush that were glowing, and stood up.

In the pitch-black night, only the jade pendant tied around Wei Changhong's waist flashed a light from time to time, like a weak but tenacious lamp.

Chen Yuan spread out his spiritual sense, and knew everything within a radius of thirty miles.

His spiritual sense was now comparable to that of a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, and he continued to draw starlight into his body, expanding slightly but continuously.

But with Lu Gui here, he quickly retracted his spiritual sense, covering only a hundred feet around him.

Lu Gui's spiritual sense was almost the same as his, and if he spread his spiritual sense at will, he would not be able to hide it from Lu Gui.

Lv Gui looked up at the sky, his figure slowly rose into the air, and said lightly: "The sky is very good tonight, there are no stars or moon, the three Taoist friends must follow behind me, restrain their spiritual consciousness, and do not act rashly."

"Fellow Taoist Wei, please put away the jade pendant on your waist to avoid being noticed by the golden-feathered eagle."

Wei Changhong hesitated for a moment, then put away the jade pendant, and then drove the escape light with Chen Yuan and Mr. Song Shi, followed Lv Gui, and flew away.

In the dark night, the Wan Yao Sea, which was turbulent and wild during the day, was calm, and even the ferocious monsters became quiet.

The four people successfully escaped hundreds of miles away, and the speed was not fast.

At this time, the clouds were floating, and a little dim moonlight flowed out. With the help of this glimmer of light, an island dozens of miles away was faintly seen.

"Stop!" Lv Gui shouted in a low voice, paused, and dived into the sea.

The three did not dare to neglect and followed him into the sea.

After a while, thick clouds covered the moon and stars again, and the sky and the earth were as dark as ink. Lü Gui finally escaped from the sea and flew to the island in front, followed by the three.

Their speed was not fast, and they were even a little cautious, but they were Jindan cultivators after all. After a while, they flew more than 30 miles and were less than 50 miles away from the island.

Lü Gui suddenly stopped, turned his head, and whispered: "Although the demon clan's consciousness is not as good as that of cultivators, the golden-feathered eagle is a level 7 demon beast after all, and its consciousness can cover 20 miles around it."

"Three Taoist friends, please stay, otherwise if the golden-feathered eagle finds out, it will be a waste of effort."

Chen Yuan and the other two looked at each other, nodded, and stopped where they were, only spreading their consciousness a hundred feet.

Lu Gui turned around and continued to move forward, his escape speed was slower than before and he was more careful.

The three of them waited there for about a quarter of an hour before Lu Guifei came back with a gloomy expression.

Wei Changhong asked in a low voice: "Brother Lu, how is the situation?"

Chen Yuan and Mr. Songshi both looked at Lu Gui with an inquiring look in their eyes.

Lu Gui said with a gloomy face: "I just checked and found that there is a seventh-level Golden Feathered Eagle on the island!"

The expressions of the three people changed. Wei Changhong's eyes widened: "Two golden feathered eagles! Is what Brother Lu said true?"

Lu Gui nodded, and Wei Changhong's face suddenly turned ugly: "Even if the four of us join forces, we are no match for the two golden feathered eagles. What should we do?"

Chen Yuan looked at Lu Gui with a serious expression: "Fellow Taoist, please explain in more detail. Why is there an extra golden feather eagle on the island?"

Wei Changhong said: "Maybe you got it wrong, Brother Lu. Why don't you let me go check it out."

Mr. Songshi frowned: "Fellow Daoist Wei, please be patient. The situation on the island is still unclear. We must not mess up our position."

Wei Changhong was stunned for a moment, breathed a long sigh of relief, and bowed to Mr. Songshi: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me that the Golden Scale Fruit is very close at hand, but I was shocked to hear about the change. Wei was in a state of confusion and almost lost his sense of proportion."

"My fellow Taoist is still in a calm state of mind. Despite the great changes, he remains undisturbed at all. He can be called a great scholar in this world."

Mr. Songshi said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Wei, you are wrong. I have only read a few more volumes of the ancient sage scriptures, traveled a few more times in the mortal world, and seen a lot more things. I cannot be called a great Confucian."

Seeing that Wei Changhong had calmed down, Chen Yuan said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, have you ever seen that second golden feathered eagle before?"

Wei Changhong and Mr. Song Shi also looked over. Lu Gui shook his head and said, "A few years ago, before I left the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Demons, there was only one Golden Feathered Eagle on this island."

"Perhaps seeing that the Golden Scale Fruit is about to mature, the Golden Feathered Eagle Clan sent another group of people here to protect the Golden Scale Fruit Tree."

Mr. Songshi shook his head: "This is deep in the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Monsters. The Monster Royal Clan is so powerful that they actually sent two seventh-level golden feather eagles to guard a golden-scaled fruit tree. Even the Millennium Spiritual Grass does not receive such treatment. Bar?"

Lu Gui sighed softly: "I underestimated the value that the Golden Yudiao clan places on the body-tempering elixir. I made the three fellow Taoists travel in vain. I will definitely make up for it after they return."

Wei Changhong said unwillingly: "Why don't we wait for a while longer? Maybe the golden feathered eagle will not stay here for a long time and will leave soon?"

Mr. Songshi said: "Fellow Daoist Wei is joking. This sea of ​​ten thousand monsters is so dangerous. We have been intercepted by monsters many times along the way. We have not suffered any damage so far. We are very lucky."

"If you stay too long in the depths of the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Demons and encounter a great demon in disguise, you will die without a burial place."

Lu Gui nodded and said: "What Taoist Taoist Songshi said is true. I have stayed here for three years because I don't have much life left, so I can ignore life and death. But I can't make fun of the lives of the three Taoists. I can't stay here for a long time." "

Wei Changhong sighed: "Forget it, it seems that this golden scale fruit is destined to have no chance with us."

Mr. Songshi said with a smile: "Nine out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory, and treasures are rare. Fellow Daoist Wei must not let this mess up his mood. He should be more free and easy."

Wei Changhong nodded and his expression became better.

The atmosphere was very heavy. Lu Gui looked up at the sky. The clouds were slowly drifting, and the crescent moon and stars were faintly revealed. He said: "We should leave this place first, and then discuss the advance and retreat."

Wei Changhong and Mr. Songshi nodded, but Chen Yuan said: "The three fellow Taoists will wait a moment, and I will go and investigate. It will not be too late to retreat."

The three of them were all stunned. Lu Gui frowned and said, "Do you think Fellow Daoist Chen can't trust me?"

"Those two golden feathered eagles are both level seven monsters. If my fellow Taoist goes there, he will definitely notice him."

Mr. Songshi also advised: "Brother Lu is the one who wants to get the Golden Scale Fruit the most. He will definitely not joke about this matter. Fellow Taoist Chen, it is better not to joke around."

Chen Yuan said sternly: "We have been through danger all the way here just for the Golden Scale Fruit. This matter is of great importance and must be handled with caution."

"Since Chen dares to go and investigate, he is sure that he will not be discovered by Jin Yudiao. The three fellow Taoists can rest assured that I will never make fun of my own life."

"This..." Wei Changhong and Mr. Songshi looked at each other.

Lu Gui pondered for a moment and said, "That's all. Since Fellow Daoist Chen insists on doing this, I can't stop him."

"But fellow Taoist must go with me and cannot do anything without permission."

Chen Yuan nodded and said: "Of course it is, Brother Lu, please!" (End of Chapter)
