Chapter 2728 The Spirit Beasts of the Eastern Continent
The spirit flower bloomed, enveloping the dragon eagleās soul.
Even after Lin Moyu had cut off a part of its soul, the dragon eagle still chose to trust him. This trust came from an unknown source, and Lin Moyu was slightly moved. If his sword had struck a bit off earlier, it could have been disastrous.
"Since you trust me so much, I canāt let you down."
"Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha of the Lunar Earth Treasury, it seems your plan will fail."
"However, your curse still has some value, it wonāt be wasted." Lin Moyu waved a strand of life force, stabilizing the severed soul fragment.
The fragment contained the curse and still had great potential for use.
Lin Moyu quietly watched the spirit flower, clearly feeling the dragon eagleās soul rapidly recovering.
The spirit flower possessed an unimaginably miraculous power, able to heal almost all injuries.
Currently, it seemed to have no effect only on injuries from the great Dao, like those of the Heavenly Dao cultivator.
When the World Tree grows a bit more and the spirit flowerās level increases, even injuries from the great Dao could be healed.
Using it now to heal the dragon eagleās soul was no problem at all.
If one flower wasnāt enough, more could be added.
After the dragon eagleās soul entered the spirit flower, the entire soul world quieted down.
In the outside world, the dragon eagleās aura quickly stabilized, no longer fluctuating between strong and weak.
The thunder that had enveloped the entire valley dissipated, as if nothing had happened.
The light of the sunās origin poured down from the sky, bright, dazzling, and full of warmth.
A day later, the spirit flowerās power was exhausted, and the dragon eagleās soul had recovered 99%.
Lin Moyu sent over a large mass of life force to complete the final step.
Wrapped in life force, the soul gradually awakened.
The dragon eagle felt as if reborn, experiencing an indescribable lightness. It knew its soul had fully recovered.
Lin Moyuās voice sounded in its ear, "Try channeling your soul power again, see if thereās any discomfort."
The dragon eagle instinctively channeled its soul power. The soul world shook again, roaring incessantly.
Its soul shone brightly, clad in thunder armor.
Lin Moyu observed carefully, confirming the curse had completely left the soul body. "Alright, itās been thoroughly eradicated."
The dragon eagle withdrew its soul power, somewhat excited. "Thank you."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Weāre neighbors and friends. Helping each other is natural, no need to be so formal."
"Moreover, I want to thank you for your trust. If you hadnāt trusted me enough, I wouldnāt have been able to cure you."
"So, the one you should really thank is yourself."
The dragon eagle looked at the severed soul fragment nearby. "Whatās the use in keeping that thing?"
Lin Moyu said, "Of course itās useful. If itās gone, do you think that Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha wonāt come?"
The dragon eagleās eyes narrowed slightly, understanding Lin Moyuās meaning.
This was an opportunity for revenge. Back then, it had been able to drive the opponent away with its fourth-realm Dao Sovereign strength.
Now that it had reached the sixth realm of Dao Sovereign, killing the opponent shouldnāt be difficult.
The dragon eagle said coldly, "If he dares to come, Iāll make sure he never leaves, turning him to dust."
Lin Moyu said, "Donāt turn him to dust. If he comes and you kill him, leave a piece of his remains for me."
The dragon eagle didnāt ask why Lin Moyu wanted the remains, simply agreeing, "Alright, no problem. As long as he dares to come, heās dead for sure."
Lin Moyu said, "Donāt worry, heāll definitely come. Itās just a matter of time."
Leaving the dragon eagleās soul world, Lin Moyuās consciousness returned to his body, simultaneously withdrawing Zhao Dongsheng and the Giant Sword Dao Sovereign.
The dragon eagle slowly opened its eyes, lightning flashing within them. It let out a long roar, and the surroundings seemed to tremble.
However, this time there was no thunder, as the dragon eagle could now perfectly control its power.
The four Dao Sovereign realm spirit beasts asked in unison, "Leader, are you better now?"
The dragon eagle laughed loudly, "Yes, Iām cured."
The four spirit beasts immediately congratulated, "Congratulations, leader!"
Their voices echoed through the valley, and soon other spirit beasts in the valley learned what had happened, each shouting loudly.
"Congratulations, leader!"
"Congratulations, boss!"
Countless bird-like spirit beasts circled in the sky, screeching incessantly to congratulate the dragon eagle.
The dragon eagle announced in a loud voice, "From now on, our tribe and Yudao City are allies. We must help each other in the future, understand?"
"Understood!"
"Yes, boss!"
The spirit beasts shouted loudly, and Lin Moyuās lips curved slightly. This was the outcome he had hoped for.
Lin Moyu smiled and asked, "Dragon eagle, whatās your real name?"
Dragon eagle was the name of the spirit beast species, not its actual name.
The dragon eagle said, "My name is Leiguang. That light crow from before is called Xiaohei."
Lin Moyu said, "Good. In a moment, Iāll ask Xiaohei if itās willing to help my friend comprehend the Dao."
Leiguang said, "No need to wait. Iāll call it over now."
A thought was sent out, and the next second, a beam of light shot over from the valley, appearing instantly before Leiguang.
Xiaohei was excited about Leiguangās recovery, circling around it again and again.
Leiguang asked, "Are you willing to go help Lin brotherās friend comprehend the Dao of Speed? Donāt force yourself. If youāre unwilling, just say so."
Xiaohei didnāt refuse. "Iām willing. This is what I promised him. As long as he could cure the boss, Iām willing."
Leiguang said, "Since thatās the case, youāll go back with Lin brother later."
Xiaohei nodded, "Alright."
There was obvious reluctance in its tone, but it felt it should fulfill what it had promised.
Lin Moyu said, "I wonāt restrict your freedom. You can come back anytime you want. With your speed, it wonāt take long anyway."
"Moreover, youāre doing me a favor. If you need anything, you can tell me, and Iāll try my best to fulfill it."
The light crow said, "Alright, Iāll let you know if I need anything."
Lin Moyu asked Leiguang, "Leiguang, do you know about the situation of the spirit beast world in the Eastern Continent?"
Leiguang replied, "I know a bit. What do you want to know?"
Lin Moyu took out a jade tablet and handed it to Leiguang. "I want to know everything. Please record what you know in here, and Iāll look at it when I get back."
Leiguang readily agreed, "Alright!"
Two beams of light shot from its eyes into the jade tablet, recording everything it knew about the spirit beasts in the Eastern Continent.
Lin Moyu had a feeling that the spirit beasts in the Eastern Continent were different from those in the Southern Continent.
In the Southern Continent, spirit beasts were independent, each with their own territory.
But in the Eastern Continent, spirit beasts could gather together, forming groups for mutual support. Above these small groups, there should be more powerful beings ruling over these spirit beasts.
The dragon eagleās tribe was just one way of existence; there must be other ways.
Various races had cultivated on the Eastern Continent for countless years but still couldnāt gain a firm foothold. There must be deeper secrets behind this.
This secret was probably known to few, even the Dao Sovereigns of various forces were unclear about it.
Lin Moyu had just mentioned it casually, based on his intuition.
