Xiao Lingyu did as she was told and slapped the skinny Divine Lord's head.
Similarly, the skinny Divine Lord couldn't dodge this slap. The colorful halo gradually thickened and the skinny Divine Lord couldn't move.
The Golden Soul Pearl of a Divine Lord cultivator was relatively sturdy. Xiao Lingyu's slap couldn't shatter it and could only make the skinny Divine Lord faint from the heavy blow.
Another breath passed and the colorful halo turned into a cocoon of light. Xiao Lingyu couldn't see the skinny Divine Lord in the cocoon of light.
At that moment, Miss Jing's expression was a lot more relaxed. She first dispersed the petals before coming in front of Xiao Lingyu, who had already landed. With a wave of her hand, the colorful cocoon of light that enveloped the thin Divine Lord fell from midair.
Xiong Meng and the others also came over, but they were still very nervous.
"He won't jump out again, right?" Zhang Hai asked softly.
No one answered Zhang Hai because only one person knew the result. Miss Jing, who knew the result, was constantly forming seals and sending them into the cocoon of light. She didn't have the time to pay attention to Zhang Hai.
After a full hour, Miss Jing stopped. The cocoon of light seeped into the skinny Divine Lord's body with her seals.
What surprised Xiao Lingyu was that not only did the skinny Divine Lord's head not move, but even the bloodstains on his neck disappeared.
At that moment, the skinny Divine Lord didn't look injured at all, but his eyes were tightly shut.
Xiao Lingyu scanned the Divine Monarch with his consciousness again. It was only then that he realized, to his surprise, that while the Divine Monarch's body was unharmed, his soul consciousness had been wiped away. His Divine Nascent was also trapped in his dantian by a ring of colorful light.
Miss Jing observed the skinny Divine Lord for a while and then nodded in satisfaction. She formed a seal.
As the seal entered his body, the skinny Divine Lord's eyes immediately opened. However, they were very empty and confused, as if he had lost his soul.
Clearly, Miss Jing had used a secret technique on the skinny Divine Lord.
"What … happened to him?" Zhang Hai asked in surprise.
"It's all thanks to Brother Xiao holding him back and knocking him unconscious." Miss Jing didn't answer Zhang Hai's question. Instead, she thanked Xiao Lingyu.
"It's all thanks to Miss Jing's brilliant methods. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to deal with this old fellow this time," Xiao Lingyu said modestly.
"I used a secret technique on him. Right now, his original soul memories have been extracted from his soul. Once we control these soul memories, we'll create a new set of memories in his soul. He'll gradually regain consciousness, but after he wakes up, he'll be under our control." Miss Jing gave a simple explanation.
"Miss Jing, are you going to let him go back?" Xiao Lingyu asked with a frown.
"That's right. If we don't let him go, we'll be suspected by his family. Then, a large number of experts will come to make trouble for us. He's already under our control. Even if he returns, he won't do anything to harm us. "Miss Jing nodded.
"Miss Jing, I'll leave this matter to you. If I can help everyone capture him, I'll consider my mission accomplished," Xiao Lingyu said casually.
Xiong Meng and the others didn't quite understand. They all looked at Xiao Lingyu and Miss Jing in confusion.
"Let's find a place first. I'll reinforce the secret technique and familiarize myself with it."
Miss Jing didn't explain much and led everyone to the side.
The early-stage Divine Monarch Fox Demon that was scared away didn't appear again. Everyone quickly left the forest and settled down in a cave for the time being.
Xiao Lingyu and the others meditated in the cave while Miss Jing led the soulless Divine Monarch Fox Demon to practice outside the cave.
After a full month, Miss Jing let everyone set off. This time, they were naturally going to the place where the Butterfly-Winged Luan was.
Actually, everyone could've given up on this mission because the Divine Monarch Fox Demon's storage ring had a lot of high-grade divine stones. But since they were already out, they naturally couldn't give up halfway. After all, everyone had made a lot of preparations.
Under Miss Jing's lead, everyone was quite safe on the way. They didn't encounter any Divine Monarch Fox Demons.
After a full year, Miss Jing told everyone that they would soon find the Butterfly-Winged Luan. She told everyone to rest and prepare for the hunt.
After eating, drinking, and resting for four hours, everyone set off again.
Under Miss Jing's lead, it only took half a day for them to see a tree with an extremely large canopy in the distance.
And on top of the tree's crown was a huge bird's nest.
"That should be the nest of a Butterfly-Winged Luan." Miss Jing pointed at the nest.
"We're finally here. What's the plan this time?" Zhang Hai asked excitedly.
"Although the Butterfly-Winged Luan is a bird, its wings are very weak. The main point of killing it is to injure its wings. It's more proficient in soul attacks with sound waves. Its sharp claws can't be underestimated either. Before hunting, you must first set up a soul defense and guard your mind."
Miss Jing thought for a moment, then said to everyone, "The Butterfly-Winged Luan shouldn't be in the nest right now. When it returns, Brother Xiao will be responsible for luring it here. We'll set up an ambush here."
Then everyone began to prepare under Miss Jing's instructions. First, they activated their soul defense magic treasures. Then, they smeared some aura concealing materials on their bodies and set up some special tools around them.
Once everyone was ready, they began to wait patiently.
After a full two months, the Butterfly-Winged Luan returned to its nest.
"Every time the Butterfly-Winged Luan returns from hunting, it's in its weakest state. Brother Xiao, hurry up and lure it here." Miss Jing said to Xiao Lingyu.
"Actually, if the two of us work together, we don't have to go through the trouble of setting up an ambush. We can just go over and kill it."
Although he said this to Miss Jing, Xiao Lingyu still did as he was told. He flew into the air without hiding anything and charged towards the tree.
The Butterfly-Winged Luan was very vigilant. As soon as Xiao Lingyu came within five hundred feet of the tree, it flapped its wings and flew out of its nest. It let out a warning cry at Xiao Lingyu.
This Butterfly-Winged Luan was an early-stage Divine Lord. Its body was flat, and it looked like a dragonfly. Its wings were very weak, but it had the head of a luan bird and two sharp silver claws like an eagle's.
Not only did Xiao Lingyu not retreat, but after the Butterfly-Winged Luan's cry, he directly sent a Primal Chaos Seal towards its nest.
After reaching the Primal Chaos Ethereal Enlightenment stage, Xiao Lingyu's cultivation had increased by quite a bit. Naturally, the Primal Chaos Seal's power had increased by quite a bit as well.
The Primal Chaos Seal's Primal Chaos Aura made the Butterfly-Winged Luan feel danger. It didn't expect the other party to attack directly, so it didn't dare to take such a big move head-on. It immediately dodged and retreated.
It could dodge, but its nest couldn't move. It was directly hit by the Primal Chaos Seal and then exploded.
Its nest had been destroyed by the intruder. This made it very angry. Without thinking, it screamed and charged towards Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu naturally didn't fear it.
When the two sides were about three hundred feet apart, the Butterfly-Winged Luan screeched at Xiao Lingyu again. This time, however, it wasn't a warning or a threat. Instead, it released an invisible sound wave.
Although Xiao Lingyu attacked the sound wave, his attack either passed through the sound wave or had no effect after exploding. The sound wave quickly rushed to his side and acted on his body.
The ear-piercing sound wave invaded Xiao Lingyu's sea of consciousness and constantly shook Xiao Lingyu's Golden Soul Pearl.
However, after a slight tremble, his Golden Soul Pearl absorbed all the sound wave.
It wasn't Xiao Lingyu's Golden Soul Pearl that absorbed the sound wave. It was the grayish-black metal piece hidden in the Golden Soul Pearl.
With this mysterious but heaven-defying grayish-black metal piece hidden in his soul, Xiao Lingyu could almost ignore many weak soul attacks.
Withstanding the sound wave, Xiao Lingyu quickly closed the distance between him and the Butterfly-Winged Luan and continued to bombard it with the Primal Chaos Seal.
The Primal Chaos Seal just now was too sudden. The Butterfly-Winged Luan didn't expect it, so it successfully hit the Butterfly-Winged Luan's nest. However, the Butterfly-Winged Luan was already prepared for the Primal Chaos Seal's attack. Not only was it able to quickly dodge, but the wind from its wings was also able to change the direction of the Primal Chaos Seal.
Since the Primal Chaos Seal's attack couldn't hit its target, Xiao Lingyu immediately turned around and retreated.
Its nest had been destroyed, and the opponent's attacks seemed to be unable to hit it. Naturally, the Butterfly Winged Luan had no reason to not chase after him. After all, it also felt that its speed was much faster than this hateful human cultivator.
As a result, the Butterfly-Winged Luan was inevitably lured into the ambush set up by Miss Jing and the others by Xiao Lingyu.
After the Butterfly-Winged Luan entered the ambush, two arm-thick silver arrows whistled through the air and shot towards its wings.
The Butterfly-Winged Luan was a bit flustered by the sudden attack. It unconsciously dodged one of the arrows, but it felt a sharp pain in its other wing.
With one of its wings pierced, the Butterfly-Winged Luan realized that danger was approaching and immediately turned around to flee.
However, Xiao Lingyu unfurled his wings at that moment and quickly circled in front of the Butterfly-Winged Luan before blasting out a Primal Chaos Seal.
Under the obstruction of Xiao Lingyu's full speed, this Butterfly Winged Luan was simply unable to escape, and the arrows that Xiong Meng and the others had set up on the ground continuously soared into the air, shooting towards its wings.
The injuries on its wings continued to worsen. The Butterfly-Winged Luan found it difficult to stabilize its body and was on the verge of collapse.
Sensing the dire situation, the Butterfly-Winged Luan continued to emit sound waves that affected Xiong Meng and the others. The arrows they shot into the sky were becoming increasingly inaccurate.
Although the Butterfly-Winged Luan's body was dripping with blood, it still did its best to flap its wings, creating gusts of wind that swept across the ground.
Xiong Meng and the others had already been exposed. The tools they'd set up were also destroyed by the gusts of wind.
