Eagle Tribe?
Lin Shen frowned.
Among the five great demonic tribes of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range, apart from the Fox Tribe, which kept an extremely low profile, the Eagle Tribe was the most elusive.
This was because most of the members of the Eagle Tribe were demons who had the ability to fly.
Even the weakest Spirit Awakening demons could fly freely in the mountains, making it extremely difficult for cultivators to discover and kill them.
The Tiger Tribe, the Python Tribe, and the Bear Tribe had been exterminated by the three major sects of Dragonside City. The Fox Tribe had been frightened by the experience of the Haoshan Fox Clan and had become more and more low-key. The Eagle Tribe then became the only king of the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range.
Perhaps that was why the Eagle Tribe lost their usual caution and actually dared to leave the depths of the mountain range and attack the Dragon Fan Flying Ship with the Nine Suns Sect’s mark!
Looking over, there were at lea st one to two hundred human-faced owls attacking the ship.
Even though most of them were only at the primary phase of the Enlightening Stage, their numbers were big enough to shake the ship’s defensive barrier.
At this moment, these human-faced owls kept flapping their wings, raising gray winds that hit the ship.
From the outside, the entire flying ship was surrounded by dense gray winds!
“Some mere demons with feathers and horns dare to attack us. They’re courting death!”
Qu Ke sneered and took out a white feather from his sleeve bag. lie blew a mouthful of spiritual essence at it.
After being nourished by the spiritual essence, the white feather seemed to have gained sentience. It suddenly trembled and broke free from Qu Ke’s hand, turning into a streak of white light that flew out.
The human-faced owls that surrounded the ship attacked for a long time, but there was no counterattack. They became relieved and more arrogant and let out ear-piercing cries.
Right at this moment, a white ray of light suddenly shot out from the ship, and it flew around the ship like a comet.
In an instant, with the flying ship as the center, a circle of blood suddenly bloomed in the surroundings. Twenty to thirty human-faced owls suddenly froze and fell from the sky like dumplings falling into the water!
The sudden change shocked the human-faced owls around them. They screamed and retreated, and their attacks immediately stopped.
However, when they stopped attacking, the white ray of light didn’t. It turned around and continued to attack rhe demons, piercing through the vital points of the human-faced owls!
in an instant, blood bloomed in the air, and the human-faced owls fell one after another.
On the deck, Shen Zenings eyes lit up when he saw this.
“Senior Brother Qu, your White Feather is indeed powerful, but I can’t let you take all the limelight. Let me show off a little!”
With that said, Shen Zoning threw out a green beam of light that shot out of the flying ship like an arrow, instantly piercing through the forehead of a human-faced owl.
The human-faced owl didn’t even have time to scream before it died instantly. The green light charged toward the next human-faced owl without stopping. It was almost as fast as the feather.
Previously, when the sect was dealing with Yan Jingren, Lin Shen had seen Shen Zening use this Dharma treasure to block Yan Jingren’s tablet.
However, his cultivation was limited at that time, and he couldn’t tell what Dharma treasure it was.
It was only at this moment that he realized that the green light was actually a jade plate.
The jade plate seemed to have the effect of destroying vital essence. The gray wind controlled by the human-faced owls couldn’t stop it at all. It pa.s.sed through the wind and reap the lives of the human-faced owls.
Qu Ke and Shen Zening were both experts who had condensed spirit meridians.
Early-phase Enlightening Stage demons were defenseless under their attack.
In the blink of an eye, a large portion of the human-faced owls around the flying ship were killed. The remaining owls were finally afraid and screamed in fear as they fled into the distance.
Qu Ke and Shen Zening controlled their Dharma treasures to chase after them for a while and killed dozens of owls before stopping.
Lin Shen watched from the side the entire time and had no intention of malting a move.
In the past, he would have lulled some human-faced owls to trigger the effect of Testify by Killing.
However, be it cultivation, martial techniques, or spells, he had already reached his limit. Even if he triggered the effect of that talent, he wouldn’t gain anything.
He had experimented with it already.
As he watched the human-faced owls retreat in panic, Lin Shen suddenly felt a gaze on him. He involuntarily turned his head and saw a black shadow flash on the distant mountain wall as if something had hidden into the crack in the rock wall.
Lin Shen’s eyes flickered. He looked in that direction for a while before retracting his gaze.
After driving away the human-faced owls, the Dragon Fang Flying Ship continued on its way.
After the ship turned into a black dot on the horizon, on the mountain wall where the black shadow had flashed past, a human-faced owl slowly walked out.
“That flying ship is already far away. Come out.”
The human-faced owl that spoke was much taller than its kin. Its upper limbs had almost turned into human-like arms, except for a thin layer of silver feathers. Clearly, its human tribulation would take place soon.
As soon as it finished speaking, a few human-faced owls walked out of the crack.
Without exception, they were closer to humans than the clansmen who had besieged the flying ship just now, but the transformation wasn’t as advanced as the first sliver-feathered owl.
“What did I tell you? The human cultivators who can board that kind of flying ship are definitely powerful, but you wouldn’t listen to me. Great, we’ve lost so many of our clansmen. What are you going to tell Master Miao You?”
Upon hearing the word name, the Silver-feathered owl’s expression froze, but it still stubbornly said,
“That was because you wouldn’t take action and wouldn’t let me do anything either.. Otherwise, we would have dealt with those two human cultivators long ago!”
