Li Yiru used her spiritual sense to detect and found a bird-like animal with a wingspan of more than 2 meters. It sounded like an eagle and was circling between the cliffs. When it flew away, it made an eagle cry, then swooped down, releasing two wind blades from its wings to attack a spiritual plant.
Judging from the shape of the spiritual plant, it looked very much like the soul-devouring thorn. Li Yiru deeply doubted whether Xiao Duobao could only sense this kind of spiritual plant.
After each attack, the giant eagle would fly in a circle to recover its spiritual energy and accumulate strength for the next attack.
The plant that looked like the Soul-Eating Thorn was actually higher in level than the second-level one Li Yirou had seen last time, and it even had some intelligence.
Just like cultivators, spiritual plants and monsters of the same kind also develop into different grades due to differences in cultivation or growth locations.
However, she felt that it was inappropriate to directly classify it as the third level, which was higher than the original second level. However, she didn't know how to classify it, so she could only follow what was written in the book.
When the giant eagle attacks the thorn bush, it will grow branches to resist.
Unfortunately, its cultivation was insufficient and it could only extend thin branches. After colliding with the giant eagle's wind blade, it was instantly turned into powder.
Seeing this, the giant eagle felt more confident in its chances of winning. It continued to attack, increasing its speed. It fired three wind blades in a row, trying to capture the spiritual plant surrounded by thorns.
Li Yirou didn't know much about wind spiritual energy, she just felt that the giant eagle's innate magical powers were practical. It seemed to be a second-level monster - the wind-winged eagle.
It is a wind-attributed monster, its wings can emit wind blades, with the power to break through the air. It is naturally sensitive to wind spirit energy, which makes it very suitable for light flight in the sky.
It can fly and hover for such a long time without flapping its wings or stopping to rest. Many people are willing to catch it and keep it as a flying spirit beast.
Li Yirou slowly descended, carefully hiding among the branches on the edge of the cliff, and observed the wind-winged eagle attacking the thorns.
Although the eagle had intelligence, it was obviously not very tall. Li Yiru watched quietly for a while and found that the soul-devouring thorns seemed to be luring the giant eagle, consuming its spiritual power and wearing out its patience.
It resisted the attacks of the Wind-Winged Eagle for a long time without borrowing the spiritual power of the spiritual plants to protect it, which shows that it was able to do it with ease.
After a long time of attacking without success, the Wind-Winged Eagle gradually became impatient and began to fly closer to the Soul-Devouring Thorns to launch attacks, but unfortunately it was still blocked again and again.
The wind-winged eagle went completely crazy. It screamed and pounced on the thorns, using its sharpest beak and claws to tear them to pieces.
The moment its claws touched the soul-devouring thorns, the spiritual plant, which originally seemed to be at a disadvantage, suddenly burst out with countless thorns, which were several times thicker than the previous weak branches.
The branches covered with dense thorns all rushed towards the wind-winged eagle, forming a dense cage that bound it tightly and made it unable to break free.
The sharp spikes like needles pierced through the wind-winged eagle's feathers and pierced its skin. The eagle, which had been fierce and strong just now, wailed and tried to break free, but was stabbed and covered in blood.
Its wings could not be spread, the effect of the wind blade was greatly weakened, and its beak and claws were entangled outside and could not exert any power.
However, the soul-devouring thorns that trapped the wind-winged eagle gained some spiritual power from it, and all the blood that flowed out of the monster beast when it was pierced was absorbed by it.
Oh no, Li Yirou thought to herself that if she let it continue to devour the Wind-winged Eagle, the Soul-Devouring Thorn would become even stronger.
The golden sword techniques were released one after another, grabbing a place and swinging it continuously. The thorns that were originally devouring were attacked from the outside world again, and could only separate branches to resist.
But it had already transformed most of its spiritual power into thick branches to trap the Wind-Winged Eagle, and now it was attacked again, its spiritual power was insufficient.
This cultivator was not easy to fool. He attacked for a long time but still did not get close to it.
The trapped wind-winged eagle struggled even more fiercely. It found a gap, stretched out one claw, and grabbed it hard, tearing off two branches.
The Soul-Eating Thorn instinctively retracted all its transformed branches, returning to its original appearance, absorbing some of the spiritual power of the companion spiritual plants, no longer luring the enemy, and honestly guarding its own place.
Although the Wind-Winged Eagle managed to break free, it was already exhausted and could not even control the wind, and it did not even have the last bit of strength to hold on to the cliff.
It was too big to stand up, and wanted to use its claws or beak to hang on the cracks of the cliff. After trying several times, it still failed and its body began to fall little by little.
Li Yirou thought of herself as being lured into a trap like a wind-winged eagle, and felt pity for it. She urged the grass and trees to tie it up not far from her feet. Whether it lived or died depended on its fate.
The Wind-Winged Eagle was also on guard against humans, but was unable to resist. It was hung there by her, not daring to move, and secretly accumulating strength.
Li Yiru first cast a purification spell on herself and continued to cut the thorns with magic spells, but this time the spiritual plant's defense was obviously much greater than her attack power, and relying solely on the gold magic spells could not cause any damage to it.
The Soul-Devouring Thorn breathed a sigh of relief. Although this human cultivator had a higher IQ than the demon cultivator, fortunately his cultivation was very weak. It was helpless. It was clearly growing on the cliff, so why were these greedy things unwilling to let it go?
Li Yiru was afraid of being attacked by thorns and this plan was rejected because she wanted to get close to it and chop it with the sword given by her senior sister.
Take the risk of loosening its roots, then hide in space, and come out after the rockfall stops to firmly control the thorns. Without the support of roots, its spiritual power will also weaken.
Li Yiru's spiritual consciousness scattered. Apart from the wind-winged eagles and some poisonous insects, there were no other living creatures around. She decided to take action.
The wood-type spell sensed that although the roots of the thorn were firm, they were not very deep. Li Yiru no longer hesitated and used the earth-type spell to loosen the stone where the roots were. With a loud crash, the gravel fell and the place where she was standing began to shake.
The thorn noticed Li Yiru's action and hurriedly continued to hold on to the roots tightly, but this cultivator was too cruel and did not even care about his own life. He dug out all the cracks in the rocks where its main roots grew, making it difficult to hold on to the small roots.
Vicious human cultivators! Their light bodies, protected by branches, forced the symbiotic plants to abandon the stony ground and transform into thin branches, like tumbleweeds, hoping to escape with the wind.
Realizing that it was about to leave, Li Yirou built a stone wall to block it. Just as she was about to try to confront the thorns again, suddenly a spiritual consciousness came from above and touched the spiritual consciousness that Li Yirou had spread around.
Oh no! Someone’s here!
Moreover, this person's spiritual awareness is very strong, he should be a foundation-building cultivator.
But the things inside are beneficial to Taxue. Before the monk's spiritual consciousness can detect where she is now, he will not discover the thorns and its accompanying spiritual plants.
Li Yiru made the decision almost instantly. She grabbed the thorns with her hands. At the same time, the wood-based magic spell urged the plants to send the wind-winged eagle to her other hand. Ignoring the pain of being stabbed by a plant and an animal, she flashed into the space.
The Soul-Eating Thorn originally thought that this vicious human cultivator had let down his guard and dared to approach it and try to grab it with his hands. Finally, it got the chance and grew branches full of sharp thorns. It used up all its spiritual power to not let this vicious human cultivator have a good life!
The Wind-Winged Eagle knew that this cultivator would not let it go easily. Fortunately, it gathered some strength and used its beak to fiercely pierce her palm. It would never let her off even if it died!
