Chapter 2860: Blade Wind Sword Rain

At that moment, the golden eagle's Bloodline Power dissipated, and Chi Lian also stopped absorbing.

"I barely managed to absorb almost half of the Bloodline Power!" Chi Lian told everyone: "This golden eagle's bloodline is indeed very pure, and its Bloodline Power isn't weak!"

"Go to the clone's Space World to accelerate your healing, and refine the bloodline and this golden eagle's Physical Body!"

Ye Liuyun said, sending Bai Hu into the clone's Space World.

With the aid of Life Spring Water, Bai Hu's injuries healed quickly; then he refined the Bloodline Power before beginning to refine the golden eagle's Physical Body.

During the refinement, he also discovered that the metallic energy inside the golden eagle's Physical Body was extremely dense. He estimated that after refining the eagle, the Golden Light, tiger claws and tiger fangs would become even stronger.

Ye Liuyun and the others didn't rush to leave, intending to wait for Bai Hu to recover before he went out to clear the path.

The Hunting Falcon reminded everyone: "Golden eagles are social ferocious beasts; there are probably more than one!"

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a bit worried. Relying on the golden eagle's Physical Body, most of them would not be a match; only Ye Liuyun and Long Nv could fight them with their Physical Bodies.

"Then everyone be careful! If you spot any other golden eagles, let me know, and I'll use Divine Soul Power to subdue them first."

But as soon as he finished speaking, a fierce cry of a golden eagle rang out. Ye Liuyun hurriedly used Gold Eye Search on the sky and saw a golden eagle flying from afar toward them.

"It might smell the scent of the just‑now golden eagle and need to act in advance," Xiao Lan Bing warned Ye Liuyun, fearing the eagle would swoop down. She certainly wasn't a match for that eagle.

"Alright," Ye Liuyun replied, preparing a strict formation.

The golden eagle that flew over turned out to be a level higher than the previous one. It ignored Ye Liuyun and the others, circling the sky recklessly; after detecting the earlier eagle's scent, it let out a fierce cry and summoned the other golden eagle.

After waiting a while with no response, it grew suspicious of Ye Liuyun's group and dived straight toward them.

Seeing the distance was sufficient, Ye Liuyun directly employed Time Power to freeze the golden eagle, then released his Soul into the eagle's Sea of Consciousness, planting a Slave Seal.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil already discerned that this golden eagle, like the previous one, had extremely dense metallic energy inside.

He hesitated, not daring to wait until it got closer before acting.

Then he guided the golden eagle to descend slowly before them. Ye Liuyun immediately initiated Soul Search to understand why these golden eagles contained so much metallic energy.

"Blade Wind Sword Rain?" Ye Liuyun was somewhat shocked after retrieving the information.

"What's wrong?" Long Nv and the other Monster Beasts asked Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun told them: "The golden eagles' nest is right behind the canyon we're heading to. That canyon is saturated with metallic energy, forming energy blades and swords that serve as a body‑refining effect for them."

These golden eagles constantly fly through that canyon; through generations of inheritance they have accumulated massive metallic attributes in their bodies. They also call this energy‑blade attack "Blade Wind Sword Rain."

"Shall we go right away?" The other Monster Beasts immediately showed interest.

Ye Liuyun nodded, but mused: "We definitely have to go. However, the canyon itself is extremely dangerous; ferocious beasts with weak Physical Bodies don't dare enter, as it's a death‑trap."

Those golden eagles have lived there for generations, their bodies long adapted to the environment, so they're unfazed. Other ferocious beasts can hardly pass the canyon, which is why the golden eagles can occupy it year after year.

Moreover, the canyon is the golden eagles' territory, with a sizable population—over two hundred. If we enter the valley to refine our bodies, unless we die, we'll be attacked en masse.

"Then we should guard the canyon entrance. When one emerges, we use Divine Soul Power to control it, and then let everyone go in to refine their bodies!" Zhu Que suggested.

Ye Liuyun agreed: "I've been pondering how to deal with them. Perhaps we can have Qiong Qi set up a Formation at the canyon mouth to trap those golden eagles, making it easier for us. After all, these eagles have a Golden Eagle King who dominates the Ninth Realm; if it grabs us, it'll be fatal."

"Or we could let this golden eagle lead me over, then have Magic Vine seal them, and I'll plant a Slave Seal on them."

Ye Liuyun still hadn't decided how to proceed.

"Then we'll take a two‑pronged approach. We'll ambush them at the canyon mouth, set up a Formation, control them one by one. Once the numbers are balanced, you and Magic Vine can capture the rest, so Magic Vine isn't overburdened."

Zhu Que added.

"Hmm." Ye Liuyun nodded, at least to capture some golden eagles first and assess the situation.

Thus Ye Liuyun sent the freshly captured golden eagle to Bai Hu, letting Chi Lian help Bai Hu absorb its Bloodline Power, the clone help Bai Hu devour the Soul, then refining its Physical Body; the Nascent Core could also be used for Bai Hu's cultivation, wasting nothing.

After deciding to descend, they no longer waited for Bai Hu; they all rushed to capture golden eagles. Yet the nearer they got to the canyon, the fewer ferocious beasts there were.

On one hand, many ferocious beasts had been hunted down as food by the golden eagles; on the other, those beasts couldn't enter the canyon, and staying here they found little food, so there truly weren't many, and Bai Hu missed few.

When Ye Liuyun arrived, he discovered there was no Formation blocking detection; instead, the canyon's Blade Wind Sword Rain formed a natural shield. He released Qiong Qi to verify, and indeed there was no Formation.

They didn't immediately enter the canyon for fear of provoking golden eagle attacks. Instead, Qiong Qi first set up a chain Formation, containing a trap Formation, defensive and Illusion Array, to prevent any entering golden eagles from escaping easily.

Then Zhu Que entered the Formation as bait, feigning injury to lure golden eagles to investigate.

Ye Liuyun pulled the others into the Space World; he himself donned the Invisibility Cloak and hid within the Formation, waiting for the golden eagles to bite.

After everything was set, Zhu Que let out a fierce cry, sending the sound outward, then lay on the ground, pretending to be injured.

Zhu Que's size wasn't small, but compared to the local ferocious beasts it was like a little bird—perfect prey for golden eagles.

Zhu Que's howl echoed through the valley, reaching the entire golden eagle flock. Immediately two golden eagles flew out to investigate.

Seeing Zhu Que on the ground flapping its wings, they thought the bird was trying to force its way into the canyon and got injured. So without suspicion they swooped down, scrambling to seize Zhu Que as food.

As a result, both golden eagles entered the Formation and couldn't get out. One dove straight into the Illusion Array, standing dumbfounded, its thoughts unknown.

The other entered the trap Formation, struggling to run out but unable to break the Formation.
