“Linda! Elly! Where are you?”
In the dense forest, a group of people shouted loudly as they walked, startling flocks of birds and animals, causing the once tranquil woods to erupt with commotion.
The forest was thick with countless aerial roots, blocking the path ahead completely, making every step incredibly difficult.
Moreover, the ground was riddled with pits and depressions, some areas completely covered by branches and fallen leaves, hiding swamps capable of swallowing creatures whole beneath them.
However, this posed no challenge to the group of Spirit Masters. More than a dozen of them summoned their Totem Beasts, each using their unique abilities to search the entire forest extensively.
As for danger… there really wasn’t much in the wild that could threaten so many Spirit Masters.
Only a Spirit Master could defeat another Spirit Master!
The Moon Child was summoned by Xiar, transforming into a nearly five-meter-tall Behemoth. It effortlessly cleared a path, snapping tree roots and branches as thick as bowls like they were mere straw, able to crush a row with a single swipe.
The Ironfeather Eagle soared into the sky while Xiar perched on the Moon Child's shoulder, utilizing the Spirit Technique “Shared Eye” to share the Ironfeather Eagle's vision, allowing him to survey the entire forest from above.
If one looked closely, they would see the reflection of the entire forest appearing on his retina, depicting the scene from above.
However, with his powerful mental strength, Xiar could easily multitask, keeping an eye on his surroundings without interference between the two.
As the ruler of the skies, the Ironfeather Eagle flew freely above. Birds fleeing from its presence retreated hastily as it soared gracefully over the treetops.
With eyesight far superior to that of ordinary eagles, it could easily spot a mouse from a kilometer away. However, after circling above the forest for a while, it still couldn’t find any trace of those two individuals.
There was no way around it; the trees were too dense in many places, completely obscuring visibility.
However, he was not without his findings. After circling around, he locked onto several suspicious locations, one of which was an open area.
He then directed Moon Child towards that direction. The crawling monsters were frightened by Moon Child's formidable presence and scattered in all directions, but some massive insects boldly charged forward instead.
Lyle was right; there were indeed many types of special Insects here, some of which seemed entirely unnatural.
For instance, there was a scorpion over a meter long, covered in an Amethyst-like shell, exuding power and mystery.
There was also a strange large insect that could launch surprise attacks from underground and had no visible eyes.
Unfortunately, their strength was far too weak compared to Moon Child. The reckless creature attempting to attack from below barely emerged before Moon Child stomped down on it, crushing it instantly.
The other few were swatted away by Moon Child as if they were mere flies, unable to withstand even a casual strike, let alone inflict any harm.
Xiar had his arm around Eileen's waist as they both sat on Moon Child's shoulder, while the slender boy sat on the other side.
He clung tightly to a raised part of Moon Child's shoulder, afraid of falling off, and curiously asked, "Xiar, is this shared vision?"
"Yes, just learned the Spirit Technique," he nodded, continuing to divide his attention between the surroundings.
"Shared vision requires a strong mental force. I didn't expect you to learn it so quickly. It took me a long time to barely grasp it; I still can't use it as freely as you do," Lan said with a hint of envy.
Xiar glanced at him and noticed him brushing back his long hair at the corners of his eyes. Coupled with his delicate features, there was a unique charm about him.
Such cuteness truly made him look like a boy...
He twitched the corner of his mouth, averting his gaze, and suddenly noticed movements from others through the sight of the Ironfeather Eagle.
A fierce monster had appeared!
In his line of sight, a tree was snapped in two, and a green shadow flashed past.
A Giant Wolf Totem Beast was brutally bitten on the neck, instantly torn apart into fragments that dissipated into the air.
The surrounding Spirit Masters hurriedly gathered, but the assailant seemed to have turned invisible, calmly leaving the scene of the crime.
"It seems to be a purple monster, somewhat resembling the large scorpion from before. Could it be a Radiation Monster?" Xiar frowned in contemplation.
The trees in that area were densely packed; even with two fallen trees, not much ground was revealed. The Ironfeather Eagle's formidable strength only allowed it to glimpse part of the creature's body.
At that moment, he suddenly spotted a pair of cold red eyes appearing at the treetops, leaping fiercely towards the airborne Ironfeather Eagle!
Earlier, while on the trunk, its body had completely blended with the leaves until it finally revealed itself during Ling Kong.
"You overconfident fool! Do you really think an elite like the Ironfeather Eagle is to be trifled with? Die!"
As he watched it leap over ten meters, closing in on the Ironfeather Eagle until it was less than five meters away, the Ironfeather Eagle suddenly folded its wings protectively in front of itself. Its lead-gray feathers shot out like arrows, completely enveloping the opponent.
To his surprise, the creature forcibly changed direction mid-air. A wide membrane appeared at its feet as it stomped down hard. The recoil caused it to slide more than two meters sideways, twisting its body to open its massive jaws wide and bite at the Ironfeather Eagle's wing.
However, under Xiar's control, the Ironfeather Eagle did not flinch or evade. Its broad wings wrapped around its entire body before rapidly spinning like a drill and crashing head-on into the monster.
The tremendous impact sent it crashing down from dozens of meters in the air, smashing into a tree thick enough for two people to embrace, landing less than a hundred meters away from Xiar.
The Ironfeather Eagle did not follow it down; after all, it was merely the ruler of the skies, and in the forest, it was like a toothless tiger, its combat ability reduced by ninety percent.
A White Shadow darted through the trees, weaving through narrow gaps, and in the blink of an eye reached the spot where the monster had landed.
However, there was no trace of it left.
Firefly crouched on a thick Trunk, turning its head to try to find any sign of the creature.
How could a beast nearly three meters long disappear so quickly?
Then, danger quietly approached. The monster silently crawled up from behind the branch where Firefly was perched, its body blending perfectly with the color of the Trunk, making it impossible to distinguish.
Whoosh!
The three-meter-long beast made only a faint sound as it leaped over ten meters to pounce on Firefly from behind.
In this critical moment, a transparent barrier emerged around Firefly's body. Then, like a leaf, it stepped onto its nose and used the leverage to gracefully leap onto a higher branch, turning around to unleash a brilliant Crescent Moon Blade.
Swoosh!
The Moonlight Blade sliced a long wound across the creature's leg, causing it to grunt in pain. As it attempted to flee, a burst of purple light erupted!
