Chapter 646 Bird Demon
Jiang Li hesitated for a moment: "Brother Chang'an, our sect has a secret technique that can simulate the aura of spirit beasts, making it impossible for demons to distinguish them. Did my master teach you our sect's cultivation method?"
Xie Chang'an laughed and said, "It wasn't the True Lord who taught me, but you who taught me in the lower realm."
Jiang Li's expression froze instantly, her eyes widening: "It's me?"
No wonder Master had that expression that day.
She said awkwardly, "Anyway, you're practically one of our Beast Taming Sect members now, so just learn it."
She even brought back a Nascent Soul True Monarch for the sect, which can be considered as redeeming herself. The sect leader probably won't punish her for leaking the sect's secret techniques.
Xie Chang'an smiled and said, "What you say is absolutely right, my lady."
Jiang Li blushed slightly: "Be serious! I will now teach you that secret technique."
Through the Heart-to-Heart Pact, she passed on the secret technique of simulating the aura of spirit beasts to Xie Chang'an.
This secret technique requires the Beast Taming Sect's mental cultivation method as a foundation, which Xie Chang'an happened to have already learned, making it easy for him to learn this secret technique as well.
Xie Chang'an concentrated and silently recited the incantation that Jiang Li had taught him, and his entire aura changed.
Taixu looked at him in shock. If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have really thought that the person in front of him was a bird!
Jiang Li frowned slightly: "That's not right! Ordinary bird demons can't enter the Demon Realm!"
She scratched her head. "You've seen the Colorful Feathered Spirit Phoenix, haven't you? Can you imitate its aura?"
The Azure Phoenix is a high-ranking noble among demons. The Colorful Feathered Spirit Phoenix is related to the Azure Phoenix and is considered a low-ranking noble among demons. It should be able to enter the Profound Realm of the Demon Domain.
This really stumped Xie Chang'an.
He had naturally seen the Colorful Feathered Spirit Phoenix before. Its long tail feathers were beautiful and graceful. Major sects often used the Colorful Feathered Spirit Phoenix as a guiding spirit envoy when holding grand ceremonies.
When he and Jiang Li held their marriage ceremony, two colorful phoenixes led the way as they walked down the red carpet.
But asking him to imitate the aura of the Rainbow Feather Spirit Phoenix was truly asking too much of him.
He wasn't a true disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, so how would he know what the aura of the Rainbow Feather Spirit Phoenix was like?
Jiang Li thought for a moment and said, "Try it, do it my way."
She silently recited the incantation, simulating the aura of a colorful phoenix, and then used an invisibility spell. Even if she encountered a demon clan on the way, they would only think that a colorful phoenix was flying by in the air.
Xie Chang'an carefully sensed the changes in Jiang Li's aura, and after several attempts, he finally succeeded.
Jiang Li leaned closer to him, carefully felt his pulse, and smiled broadly: "It's almost done."
Taixu felt a chill run down his spine. Two demonic "birds" were standing on his sword, and he almost couldn't resist throwing them off!
Jiang Li Gege smiled and said, "Taixu, I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Taixu sighed: "The bird demon is alright, just don't let it turn into a pig demon."
The thought of two "pig demons" standing on him sent a chill down Taixu's spine.
"Don't worry, those self-proclaimed noble demons would never let a pig demon in."
Jiang Li couldn't help but imagine what Xie Chang'an would look like "transformed" into a pig demon, and burst into laughter.
Xie Chang'an held her waist tightly to prevent her from laughing too hard and falling off the flying sword.
He smiled slightly: "Even if Little Tanuki turns into a little pig demon, she'll still be the prettiest one."
If she were to transform into a chubby little pig demon, she would surely be extremely adorable.
Jiang Li felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Having such a Daoist partner by her side to go on adventures together felt pretty good.
The two men, each with a sword, chatted and laughed as they flew low above the dense forest.
Jiang Li didn't allow Taixu to fly too high. The demon race had a strict hierarchy, and if they encountered a high-level demon who couldn't tolerate these two "low-ranking nobles" flying above him, it would be troublesome.
After flying around the central peak a few times, Jiang Li roughly figured out the terrain of the area: with the towering peak as the axis, it spreads out in a stepped pattern in all directions.
The towering mountain was entirely black, with steep cliffs and not a blade of grass growing on it. Clouds and mist swirled around its summit, and faint, powerful roars of beasts could be heard from within.
The blood-red palace perched atop the clouds, paired with black jade-like cliffs, creates a striking visual impact and a strong sense of oppression.
From afar, it resembles a fiery cloud suspended in the heavens, exuding immense power and awe-inspiring influence.
Jiang Li had a gut feeling that this palace was most likely the palace where the Demon Emperor resided—the Palace of Ten Thousand Demons.
From the towering peak outwards, the terrain unfolds like a series of steps, arranged in concentric circles, with an estimated three layers.
"Is it probably based on bloodline hierarchy?" Jiang Li guessed.
The higher-ranking nobles are on the first level, the next highest-ranking nobles are on the second level, and those like them, the "lowest-ranking nobles," can only stay on the third level.
"Let's go down and ask a demon about it."
"it is good."
Taixu landed in the dense forest of the third ring. Jiang Li had changed her clothes and was wearing a colorful dress with a few brightly colored tail feathers stuck in her hair.
With that demonic aura, it was exactly like a colorful, spirit phoenix that had taken human form.
Xie Chang'an said awkwardly, "I don't have such clothes."
How could a sword cultivator like him have such flashy clothes?
Jiang Li was at a loss; she didn't have any men's clothing either.
She took out a few more colorful phoenix feathers and stuck them into Xie Chang'an's jade hairpin, thinking it was better than nothing.
Taixu looked at Xie Chang'an's incongruous attire and laughed so hard he almost fell over.
Xie Chang'an's face darkened. He pulled Jiang Li back into his sea of consciousness and walked side by side into the dense forest.
The third layer is a vast plain, with forests, grasslands, and countless streams.
The forest mist swirls like a light veil, the stream glows with an eerie fluorescence, and all sorts of exotic flowers and plants bloom in vibrant colors.
The two walked along the stream, and saw fish leaping out of the water from time to time. Some had fangs and were strangely shaped, while others were like white jade, emitting a shimmering light.
Jiang Li muttered, "I've never seen these fish before, and I wonder what they taste like?"
Xie Chang'an said, "It's better not to try it lightly."
The stream glows with an eerie light; who knows if the fish in it are poisonous?
Just then, the faint sound of children's laughter could be heard from ahead.
Jiang Li's eyes lit up – a spirit beast cub!
She walked quickly forward.
Turning past a cluster of vibrant spider lilies, I saw two unformed chicks playing by the stream.
A snow-white little snow wolf and a chubby black little black bear, both of them were furry on Jiang Lixin's body!
Jiang Li smiled and stepped forward to greet them, "Are the babies playing in the water? Can I join them?"
The little snow wolf and the little black bear looked up together and saw a gaudy bird demon waving at them with a smile.
Although the bird demon wasn't very good-looking—skinny and small, and without any fur—she had a very pleasant scent that made the two little ones feel an irresistible urge to be close to her.
"Sister, which race are you from?" the little black bear asked innocently.
"I am from the Luan Clan!" Jiang Li said proudly.
The little snow wolf scoffed, "What Luan Clan? You mean the Colorful Feathered Spirit Luan? Why would the little princess of the Azure Luan Clan come to a place like the Vast Demon Plains?"
Oh, so the third ring is called the Vast Demon Plains. Jiang Li secretly memorized it.
