Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

”Trying to run! Leave your life here first!” Chu Linfeng shouted as he saw the Gale Eagle attempting to escape, and he flashed forward in quick pursuit.

At this moment, the Gale Eagle turned into a black dot and vanished in an instant before Chu Linfeng. ”The speed of this Gale Eagle is truly terrifying; it certainly matches the name ’Gale.’ But if you want to compete with me in speed, you’re still lacking,” Chu Linfeng thought to himself.

After determining the direction in which the Gale Eagle fled, Chu Linfeng immediately used instant teleportation, which allowed him to move several hundred miles in an instant. No matter how fast the Gale Eagle was, it could hardly be a match for Chu Linfeng.

Chu Linfeng quickly caught up to it and once again used instant teleportation to appear more than ten miles ahead of the Gale Eagle, who swiftly closed the gap.

However, upon seeing Chu Linfeng in front of it, the Gale Eagle was startled into speechlessness. Already suffering from severe wounds, the rapid flight had worsened its condition significantly. At the sight of this human, a sense of despair arose within it.

”Even if I die today, I’ll drag you down with me!” the Gale Eagle thought fiercely. Strangely, it did not attempt to flee again but instead steadied itself and stared quietly at Chu Linfeng.

Chu Linfeng was slightly taken aback by the Gale Eagle’s behavior; was it dumbstruck with fear, or preparing for a final stand?

”Old bird, weren’t you just boasting about being the king here? Why, then, do you flee faster than anyone else at the sight of me? If you surrender quietly, perhaps I might spare your life; otherwise, I’ll leave you with no remains,” Chu Linfeng said.

The Gale Eagle glanced at Chu Linfeng and angrily retorted, ”Who exactly are you? I’ve no grievance with you, so why are you hunting me down? How has that Barbaric Earth Dragon become your subordinate?”

”That’s a good question. I am here to take your life. Although there is no personal vendetta, the Demon Core inside you is something I need. The Barbaric Earth Dragon belongs to the Dragon Race; I have significant ties with them, so naturally, I spared it. Seeing my formidable strength, it willingly became my subordinate,” explained Chu Linfeng.

”You want my Demon Core? You’re a fool dreaming! Don’t think your defense is unbeatable, I’ll show you my true strength today,” the Gale Eagle replied.

”True strength? Surely you weren’t using your full power just now? Then I am a bit eager to see it!” Chu Linfeng responded indifferently, believing the Gale Eagle could not harm him.

At that moment, the Gale Eagle began glowing with a golden light, and a tremendous pressure emanated towards Chu Linfeng, giving him a slight sense of danger that made him cautious.

”Lin Feng, watch out! This creature is burning the energy of its Demon Core. It seems you won’t obtain it after all; the energy from a Demon Core is incredibly terrifying. Beware of its self-destruction,” Sword Spirit advised.

Chu Linfeng was shocked; he was well acquainted with the power of self-destruction. Even with his current Star Body at the sixth layer, he could not withstand the self-destructive force of a Magical Beast at the eighth level of the Saint Martial Realm. He was prepared to flee.

However, the situation did not align with Chu Linfeng’s thoughts. The Gale Eagle was not planning to self-destruct but rather burning the energy within its Demon Core to enhance its power—a method akin to drinking poison to quench thirst, a suicidal action. Naturally, if it could survive this ordeal, there was a slim chance of living.

But self-destruction equated to complete death; with its power at such a level, living was preferable, so it chose to strengthen itself. The consequences of a backlash were no longer a concern. At this point, it wanted only to kill this insignificant human.

Suddenly, a massive golden lightning bolt, as thick as a water barrel, burst forth from the air. It was about ten times larger than the previous lightning, and its power was imaginable.

Chu Linfeng attempted to dodge quickly, but the lightning seemed to anticipate his move, accurately striking him as he steadied himself.

Immediately, an unprecedented numbness and intense pain engulfed him, causing Chu Linfeng to let out a pained cry, as the Power of Thunder and Lightning sent him flying several hundred meters.

”Such powerful thunder and lightning power!” Chu Linfeng couldn’t help but exclaim. At this moment, a faint trace of pale golden blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. Li Feng hadn’t harmed him, yet he was injured by the Gale Eagle’s lightning.

The energy of the Demon Core truly wasn’t simple. Who knew if the lightning in the Thunder Pool was this powerful? It seemed he had underestimated his opponent.

The Gale Eagle, seeing Chu Linfeng’s mouth bleeding, was momentarily surprised—it was the first time witnessing blood of such a hue. But there was no time to dwell on it. In an instant, the Gale Eagle swept towards Chu Linfeng.

Its gigantic talons aimed to tear Chu Linfeng into pieces, but he naturally wouldn’t give it the chance, swiftly dodging to the side. Even a half-second delay would spell inescapable peril, showcasing the danger.

Seeing its strike miss its mark, the Gale Eagle let out a deafening screech, a sound that could likely be heard hundreds of miles away, far surpassing the roar of thunder in a storm.

”What are you shrieking for? If you have the guts, strike with your lightning again! I won’t be intimidated!” Chu Linfeng retorted angrily. He believed that even if the Gale Eagle could burn the energy of its Demon Core, its use was limited. It could unleash its thunderous power only three times, so Chu Linfeng sought to provoke it utterly, waiting for the backlash from burning its Demon Core.

Sure enough, Chu Linfeng’s words enraged the Gale Eagle into a tremble, and once more, a lightning bolt as thick as a water barrel shot from its beak. This time, Chu Linfeng, having suffered a setback before, quickly used instant teleportation when the Gale Eagle opened its mouth, attempting to evade.

But then he discovered that his instant teleportation moved him only fifty meters, as if the surrounding space was restricted, which shocked him greatly.

The lightning had imposed a space restriction—something he had never considered. Like before, this lightning accurately struck Chu Linfeng, sending him flying another several hundred meters.

Once steady, Chu Linfeng involuntarily spewed blood. He noticed this bolt was even more powerful, rendering his body unresponsive.

This realization appalled him. If the Gale Eagle delivered another strike now, the consequences would be dire. Given its massive body, even a single blow could exert unimaginable force, easily tearing him into pieces.

But just then, the Gale Eagle trembled violently, and a projectile of blood erupted from its immense beak as its body plummeted from the sky.

Though Chu Linfeng did not understand why, his body remained immobilized and numb, leaving him anxious. As the Gale Eagle crashed to the ground, the form of the Barbaric Earth Dragon appeared before Chu Linfeng...
