Chapter 107: The Demon Eagle Blocks the Way!

  "My goodness, what is that?"

  Above the vast white clouds, a dense black cloud quickly approached the Royal Sky Ship. Upon closer inspection, it was actually a group of eagles, large and small, densely packed, with over a thousand in number.

  Those eagles spread their wings, the smallest of which are nearly two meters long. Their sharp beaks and claws glint with a deep chill in the sunlight. They cry out as they flap their wings in unison, like thunder, making a truly frightening spectacle.

  Everyone in the cabin also heard the movement and walked out of the cabin one after another. When they saw the group of eagles quickly approaching, including Liu Yuanzhan and others, everyone's mouth was wide open, stunned by the scene in front of them.

  "Monsters, so many!"

  Liu Yuanshu's pupils contracted, and a thread of fear flashed in his eyes. That group of eagles, at the very least, had over a thousand birds, among which many were first or second-tier demon beasts. Among them was even a giant eagle with a body as wide as twenty meters when its wings were spread out, already reaching the level of a fourth-tier demon beast.

  Fourth-order or lower demon beasts are only equivalent to the late stage of a music worker's realm. In peacetime, it can be said that they pose no threat whatsoever to people like Liu Yuanquan. However, now that they have appeared in large numbers, the situation is completely different. A multitude of ants can still bite an elephant to death; what more a powerful demon beast?

  "Wan Jun, you all go back to the cabin!" Zhao Yuanling said to Xu Wanjun and others, his eyes fixed on the front, his face full of caution and defense, and he didn't know why that group of flies came.

  It may just be a coincidence, but judging from the situation, this possibility is extremely small.

  "Master, there's someone on the eagle's back." Just as he was about to retreat into the cabin, Xu Wanjun pointed at the four-stage demon eagle and exclaimed to Zhao Yuanling.

  Xiao Yun and the others stopped in their tracks, looking towards the eagle group. Indeed, a white figure stood upright on the back of the four-stage demon eagle, leading the group of demon eagles to rush towards the Yu Tianzhou.

  Liu Yuanchen's spirit was boosted by the divine envoy, and the speed of the Heavenly Vessel suddenly increased. It rode the wind and waves, advancing rapidly through the sea of clouds. However, compared to that group of demonic eagles, the Heavenly Vessel's speed was still a bit slow. Before long, the Heavenly Vessel was surrounded by countless eagles.

  "Hoo! Hoo!"

  The eagle flapped its wings, but only circled around without attacking. Liu Yuanqu and others stood at the bow of the boat, not daring to take action rashly. If they were to provoke the eagles, it would be a loss. Xiao Yun and others had not returned to the cabin either, each holding their zither, carefully guarding against them.

  "Ah!"

  A strong gust of wind blew in, almost blowing Xiao Yun and the others off the Yu Tianzhou. Looking up, they saw that the circle formed by the eagles had been torn open, revealing a large four-stage demon eagle slowly descending.

  On the back of the eagle stood a young man in his thirties, wearing a white tight-fitting garment, with long hair fluttering and belt flying, with a jade flute hanging from his waist. He looked quite handsome, except for two white eyebrows that seemed somewhat eerie.

  "May I ask who you are and why you're blocking our way?" Liu Yuanchen looked up and said, with a hint of apprehension in his eyes. He could sense that this man's strength was definitely higher than his own.

  A man in white stood upright on the back of an eagle, looking down at the crowd on the Heavenly Vessel with a gaze full of disdain in his eerie eyes.

  "Are you from the Tianyin Sect? Just came out of Donglan Sacred Site?" The man in white clothes spoke, his tone was light and flat, as if there was no emotion mixed in.

  "What kind of person are you? Blocking our way, what do you want to do?" Zhao Yuanling stared at the man in front of her, and a woman's sixth sense told her that this man was absolutely not good, but they could be sure that they absolutely did not recognize this man.

  The man in white drew a slight arc at the corner of his mouth, "In the lower Bai Yu, there is no malice, it's just that I heard that the Tianyin Sect got the quota to enter the Donglan Holy Land, and came to congratulate you all!"

  "White feather?"

  Liu Yuanquan and others searched their minds for a while, but they had never heard of this person. However, there was one thing they could be sure of - this person would definitely not come to congratulate them.

  Li Yuanfang glanced around and said, "You've gone to so much trouble to set up this scene, I'm afraid it's not that simple, is it?"

  "Brilliant!"

  The man in white snapped his fingers, chuckled and immediately changed his face, saying, "Hand over all the treasures you got from Donglan Sacred Relics, or I might let you leave."

  "Huh?"

  It turned out that they had encountered robbers, and the faces of everyone on the boat became extremely ugly, especially Liu Yuanshan and his two companions, whose faces were as dark as black iron.

  "I am a Tianyin Sect disciple who has undergone the Sacred Trial, personally appointed by the Summer Emperor. No matter which sect or school you belong to, dare to rob our Dao and not fear the Summer Emperor's wrath?" Li Yuanfang said.

  "Hahaha, Xia Huang?" The man in white laughed lightly, his expression extremely exaggerated. "Your human emperor, whether angry or not, what does it have to do with me? Little ones, come and get him!"

  As they spoke, the man in white robes waved his large sleeves and the four-stage demon eagle below him flapped its wings and carried the man away from the group of eagles. The eagles surrounding the Heavenly Vessel immediately let out a shrill cry and swooped down towards the people on board.

  "Get back to your cabins quickly!"

  Liu Yuanchen let out a loud shout, his battle aura surging forth. His right hand transformed into a blade, and with a single swing, a pale blue sword energy shot towards the demonic eagle flying straight at him.

  "Battle Melody: Duan Shui Liu", this is the realm of musicians, no need to use musical instruments, can play battle melody, release heroic spirit to hurt enemies, although the power will be discounted, but it's very convenient.

  A sharp blade flashed by, immediately cutting the two second-order demon eagles and three first-order demon eagles in half. Blood rained down, feathers flying wildly everywhere.

  Xiao Yun and the others wanted to retreat back to the cabin, but the demonic eagles were everywhere, making it impossible for them to move an inch. They had no choice but to unleash their battle songs to defend themselves.

  Facing the sky full of demonic beasts, Liu Yuanzhen, Zhao Yuanling, and Li Yuanfang did not panic. Back to back, they stood in a triangular formation, with their feet shoulder-width apart, using their aura to control the Guqin. Each of them played the Guqin, with the sound waves floating in mid-air, their ten fingers moving swiftly on the strings, transforming into flashes of sword lights that harvested the lives of those demonic birds without cease.

  Compared to them, Xiao Yun and the others were somewhat at a disadvantage. These demonic eagles, with at least three to four hundred of them reaching the demonic beast realm, could even rival the strength of a first-grade demonic beast. Being surrounded by three to four hundred high-level cultivators in the Musician Realm, it was clear how much chance they had of winning!

  Seven people formed a circle, sitting on the ground, covering each other, and fiercely resisting the attack of the eagle group. Those sharp claws and beaks, one scratch was a piece of flesh, no one dared to be distracted in the slightest.

  At this time, it was still within the territory of Huangzhou, far from Boya Mountain, and there were no Leshanmen sects around. It can be said that the white-clothed man chose this place to rob, mostly because he had planned it out long ago. Liu Yuanchen defended himself on one side while feeling anxious in his heart, surrounded by eagles, the Tianzhou boat was unable to speed up at all.

  Being on the Imperial Sky Ship, Xiao Yun's physical skills couldn't be fully utilized. Moreover, Wu Long Yin and Ao Lai Hou both consumed a lot of Haqi, and he didn't have any low-level battle songs. He could only rely on Jiu Xiang to produce sound waves to attack his enemies, but this power was much weaker than when he used his battle songs.

  "Ah!"

  Just as one first-stage demonic eagle was knocked open, another demonic eagle swooped down towards Xiao Yun, its wings spread out to a width of five meters, already at the level of a second-stage demonic beast. Xiao Yun's right hand flicked, and a sonic wave burst forth, striking the demonic eagle's body, but only leaving a shallow gash on its surface, causing it to drop a few feathers. The second-stage demonic eagle merely paused for a moment before flapping its wings and letting out an angry cry, charging towards Xiao Yun at an even faster speed.

  "Whoosh!"

  A flash of sword light swept across, and the demon eagle's head and neck were separated. Blood splattered everywhere, its body suddenly stopped in mid-air, and fell into the cloud sea below. The sword light dissipated, and Xiao Yun turned his head to look, only to find that it was Lin Chuyin sitting beside him who had performed the third-level battle melody "Liver Intestine Cut" to rescue him.

  Not enough time to feel grateful, several demonic eagles swooped in again. Xiao Yun hastily put away the Jiuxiao and took out the Duojin Sword. With a surge of heroic energy, it transformed into a three-foot-long sword, slashing out golden sword auras that clashed with those demonic eagles.

  The Poisonous Golden Sword was just a pseudo-Melody Treasure, and although it consumed a lot of energy to use, Xiao Yun could still barely hold on. As for Lin Chu Yin and the others, although they had obtained Melody Treasures in the Sacred Marks, the Melody Treasures were too powerful, and with their current strength, they couldn't wield them yet, so they could only honestly perform the War Chant.

  The monsters all had spiritual intelligence, and there were people driving them from behind. It seemed that they had found Xiao Yun's weakness, a large group of demonic eagles swooped towards Xiao Yun, as long as the formation formed by the seven people was opened up, it would naturally collapse.
