Chapter 41: Azure Falls and Yellow Springs, Two Layers of Heaven

  "Mystic art! Dark Eagle Moon!" The Grey Feathered Eagle King flew into the night sky, shouting loudly.

  In an instant, the gray feathers began to emit a golden light, and the gray feathers transformed into a golden eagle, the picture was frozen in mid-air, suspended at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

  *sigh*

  It was as if Ash Feather's body had some kind of gravitational pull, which actually pulled the moonlight from the sky! The white moonlight passed through Ash Feather's golden body and then projected a strange light composed of gold and white onto the water pool.

  At the same time, some round beads floated around Huiyu's body, shining with light and revolving around him non-stop.

  At this moment, Su Dong in the water pool gradually calmed down, as if a kind of power surrounded him, making his body no longer hot and his mind no longer crazy.

  He raised his head and Su Dong saw that strange scene, a golden eagle and white moonlight rising together, three magical stars surrounding him...

  Plop!

  Su Dong felt his whole body weak and powerless, and as he lost balance, he fell into the gradually cooling water pond.

  ……

  When Su Dong regained consciousness, he found himself lying in a mountain cave, next to a fire lit by Old Man Hui Yu, and covered with a blanket.

  The old man with grey hair is drinking a cup of tea from an iron teacup, in the wilderness where there are no tea utensils, he directly places the metal teacup on the fire to burn, then breaks off a piece of compressed tea and throws it in, making a simple tea.

  "Are you awake?" Grey Feather smiled and looked at Su Dong, saying softly.

  Su Dong got up and rubbed his temples, muttering to himself: "I seem to have seen you..."

  Before Su Dong finished speaking, Hui Yu calmly said: "What you see is my true form, and also my natal star."

  "Benming Star?" Su Dong was taken aback, his father Su Qi had mentioned the Benming Star when he was drunk, it seemed to be a very powerful existence, as if plucking a few stars from the sky and using them for oneself. He didn't think that Old Man Huiyu still had such good things!

  "Not bad, all high-level warriors have their own destined star, mine is called Moon Guide, it can summon the power of moonlight, it's quite ironic, I'm the proud Eagle King, but my destined star is a healing type." Gray Wing shook his head and sighed.

  Su Dong picked up the water skin and took a sip, smiling as he said: "I didn't find anything funny. If your healing skill wasn't your ace in the hole, I'd probably be dead by now."

  Huiyu Dao said: "Actually, I just used my own spiritual power to suppress the turmoil of spiritual power in your body. It doesn't count as real treatment. Do you know why you suddenly lost control?"

  Su Dong slightly shook his head, "I guess it's because of my own chaotic spiritual power."

  Huiyu let out a deep breath, wrapped his cloak tightly around him and said: "At first I thought it was because of this reason, but later I thought of a deeper problem. First of all, you are human, yet you have learned the skills of our spiritual beast clan, and even the demonic path of the spiritual beasts. This thing itself is a challenge, from ancient times to now, no one has ever done it."

  "In other words, you've taken a path that no one has ever taken before, and what will you end up with? No one knows."

  Su Dong didn't say a word, his two eyes staring at the fire, only he himself was most clear about his own situation. As the last inheritor of Qimen, absorbing all spiritual energy in the world, Su Dong was destined to be different from others.

  Huiyu paused for a moment, then continued: "I'll do my best to help you achieve balance, but whether or not I can succeed, I make no guarantees. Thinking about it carefully, there's actually nothing wrong with that. If you were to successfully cultivate the Spirit Beast Demonic Dao with a human body, it would definitely be very unusual. Who knows, maybe something special will come out of it. I'm also looking forward to it."

  "After living for so long, I've always been thinking about one question: what's the difference between humans and spiritual beasts? You drink tea and eat meat, we also drink tea and eat meat. You cultivate with the power of the stars, we also cultivate with the power of the stars. Since there are so many similarities, why is it that you humans occupy this continent, while we spiritual beasts can only live in the mountains and wilderness?"

  "With a flicker of his gaze, the grey-feathered man looked at Su Dong with an air of deep meaning and said in a slightly excited yet hoarse voice: 'You're walking a path between humans and spiritual beasts, the risk is quite high. If you turn back now, it's still possible, after all, your cultivation method hasn't taken shape yet.'"

  "A warrior's first set of skills will greatly influence his future direction. Once you cultivate the Beast Tribe Demon Dao to a high level, there is no turning back."

  ……

  Half a month later, Baishoushan.

  Azure Falls Yellow Spring Nine Heavens, Second Heaven, Shattered!

  Rumble...

  Suddenly a black shadow burst out from the mountain top, holding a broken sword in hand, swinging out a faint dark light!

  The knife shadow flew quickly, like a group of dragons surrounding Su Dong's body, the sound of the knife shadow tearing through the air was like a violent thunderclap, and its momentum was enormous! Unless someone wanted to die, no one could get close to him, because Su Dong's entire body was completely covered by this strange knife shadow!

  Snap!

  Su Dong's body drew a graceful arc in mid-air, her feet landing steadily on the ground, with a hint of ease and surprise on her face.

  Rumble...

  Mount Baekdu suddenly shook violently, causing a massive earthquake!

  Perhaps it was the sonic boom caused by Su Dong's all-out attack that triggered a massive avalanche! Millions of tons of snow swept down from the mountain top, destroying everything in its path! Sweeping away the trees on the mountain! Carrying away the rocks at the summit!

  The old man with grey feathers swallowed a mouthful of saliva, excitedly looking at Su Dong, walked over and put his arm around Su Dong's shoulder, saying: "Good kid! Your martial skills are too fierce! It's simply awe-inspiring! The you in everyday life and the you in battle are completely two different people!"

  Su Dong raised his knife and calmly said: "This set of martial arts is like this, without any concealment, directly attacking to take one's life, I also have no way."

  Huiyu burst out laughing, and neither of them cared about the avalanche's magnificence. They returned to the cave and started packing their luggage.

  It's been several months, and Hui Yu and Su Dong have been living on White Head Mountain. With the help of Old Man Hui Yu, Su Dong has gradually achieved a kind of balance. He no longer goes crazy from taking Fox Spirit Grass, as if his body has adapted to all sorts of chaos.

  As a human, practicing the Spiritual Beast Cultivation Method is chaotic. Practicing the Spiritual Beast Demonic Cultivation Method is even more chaotic. Eating the spiritual medicine of the Spiritual Wisdom Goddess tribe makes it even more chaotic. The successor of the Qimen sect absorbs all the spiritual energy in the world, adding chaos to chaos!

  It's not easy to strike a balance among so many chaotic factors! Even Su Dong himself didn't understand how to overcome the chaos, probably it was because of the legendary "things will reverse when they reach an extreme", too much chaos entangled together, and instead became stable.

  Arriving at the summit of Whitehead Mountain, Grey Feather looked around and then gazed at Su Dong again, saying in a low voice: "It's been quite interesting spending time with you these days. Unfortunately, that damn Fox Fairy Grass is really too hard to swallow. I'd still rather eat meat."

  Su Dong was amused by Old Man Hui Yu, and this time every meal was like a punishment for him. His face turned iron blue as he forced himself to eat some Fox Fairy Grass, then quickly took a big bite of meat. In less than a month, Old Man Hui Yu had lost a lot of weight. The precious spiritual medicine of the White Spirit clan, 90% of it went into Su Dong's stomach.

  With a faint smile, Su Dong said: "I also have a star ring now. Next time I'll bring some barbecue seasonings with me and give them to you when we meet again."

  "Alright! It's settled then! Next time I see you, if there are no seasonings, watch out or I'll hit you!" Grey Wing and Su Dong joked.

  After saying that, the two people's faces became very solemn. Sometimes things are just strange. Huiyu and Su Dong, one old and one young, one human and one beast, unexpectedly developed feelings for each other. At this moment, they were reluctant to part ways.

  "Next, taking advantage of the midsummer, I will go to the extreme north wilderness for a trip, and it is unknown when we will meet again." Huī Yǔ said, looking towards the north.

  "Go to the Extreme North Wilderness?" Su Dong was slightly stunned, that place is the Snow Demon's lair, even in midsummer, the Extreme North Wilderness is still fraught with danger at every step, Su Dong secretly had some worries.

  "Where did you want me to go?" asked Hui Yu with a smile.

  Su Dongdao said: "If you want to say something, just say it. If you don't say anything, there must be a reason for not saying it. I only hope you have a safe journey."

  Huiyi was taken aback, and smiled wryly: "You're too clever for your own good, I like that about you. Alright, even if you ask me, I won't tell you the reason. Sometimes it's better not to know certain things. Don't worry, I'm not going to die that easily. If everything goes smoothly, I should be back by the time of the Northern Four Nations' Autumn Assembly."

  After that, Grey Feather threw a small golden whistle to Su Dong, which looked very similar to the one from Langga Wolf King, except for the pattern on it being two wings.

  "That one-eyed wolf has given you his golden wolf whistle, I shouldn't be too stingy either. You have my eagle whistle in your hand, blow it when needed, don't hesitate at all! Don't look down on the Lone Wolf Clan just because they seem so fierce with their numbers, but actually, we Eagle Clan are the fastest! After all, they Wolves run, while we Eagles fly!" Grey Feather instructed.

  Hmmm...

  Su Dong took the golden whistle back and put it away carefully.

  ……

  From Whitehead Mountain to Froststar City five hundred miles, Su Dong only took a day and a half to arrive outside the city.

  Her elegant temperament remained unchanged, but more than a month of tempering had made Su Dong appear even more resolute, with muscles that were even more toned.

  Returning to the city necessarily passes through his own spiritual field, Su Dong is full of joy and doesn't know what those spiritual valleys and medicines have grown into now. In another month, it will be the harvest season, which is a lot of money.

  Suddenly, Su Dong's footsteps stopped just as he was about to reach that spiritual field, his brow furrowed slightly.
