Just as the group of Pegasus Beasts was about to be wiped out, another Demon Spirit Ring suddenly materialized.
Sha Chu was riding a Pegasus Beast, about to land to pick up the Demon Spirit Ring, when suddenly ripples of light appeared on the ground, and a demon spirit like a shark leapt out from underground, with a person sitting on its back.
He reached out and grabbed the Pegasus Beast Demon Spirit Ring, and then slyly thanked Li Xiu and Sha Chu. The shark demon spirit brought him back to the ground, disappearing as if it had fallen into water.
"Who was that?" Li Xiu landed on the ground, stomping his foot to find that it was solid, with no underground tunnel or anything. He realized that the guy could burrow underground, likely a skill of that demon spirit.
"I don't know many people in the Eternal Heaven, but I do know that person." Sha Chu said with a wry smile, "Most members of the Six Eternal Groups are figures of great repute outside, so they don't want to easily reveal their identities. That guy is an exception; within Eternal Heaven, no one shouldn't know who he is."
"I don't know." Li Xiu replied.
"That person is called Jiuxiao Yun, a name that sounds like a nickname, but is actually his real name, a super member of the Immortality Group. Even outside, his identity is well-known, the grandson of the Jewel Thief Nine Cloud Dragon." Sha Chu stared at the nearby ground and said, "His Demon Shark can traverse both air and ground, except for water, there's no place he can't go. Perhaps he inherited his grandfather's nature. Even though Jiuxiao Yun doesn't dare to steal in Eternal Heaven, within the Land of Trial, he's famous for taking others' possessions, but as he has a Super Spirit Level Demon Shark, even some Super Spirit Testers can't do much about him."
"I heard even Wan Chaoxin fell for him once, his prey stolen. But since he has the Demon Shark, there's nothing one can do about it. It's fortunate he only steals things and hasn't been known to harm anyone." Sha Chu said.
"Having such a demon spirit mount certainly gives him an advantage, but clearly being a fish that can't go underwater is indeed quite peculiar." Li Xiu didn't take it too seriously and said with a smile.
"Not sure where he got the Demon Shark from, probably a demon spirit from a Demon Spirit Gemstone, not a Demon Spirit Ring." Sha Chu thought for a moment and said, "His grandfather was a jewel thief, having stolen countless precious gemstones, having a Gem Demon Spirit wouldn't be surprising."
"He's so blatant in his thefts, doesn't Eternal Heaven do anything about it?" Li Xiu asked.
"He doesn't commit theft in Eternal Heaven, only in the Land of Trial, taking demon spirits others are hunting or items not yet obtained, and doesn't harm anyone. The Land of Trial is a place where the strong devour the weak. Even reporting it to the president would only highlight one's own inadequacy." Sha Chu explained.
"I see." Li Xiu nodded.
Indeed, killing someone in the Land of Trial would probably be hard to investigate, let alone merely stealing something.
"Didn't expect Jiuxiao Yun to show up in the Land of Beasts. We can only consider ourselves unlucky, a shame about the Pegasus Beast Demon Spirit." Sha Chu sighed.
"No need to feel sorry; if we get robbed this time, just take it back next time. Let's move on, maybe we'll encounter another group of Pegasus Beasts." Li Xiu recalled the Jedi Knight and shared a ride with Sha Chu, heading deeper into the grassland.
After traveling a dozen miles, instead of finding a group of Pegasus Beasts, they saw several enormous creatures like elephants snoozing beside a lake.
"That's Kerun Lake. Legend says there's a fairy in the lake, and if you toss in a gold coin, your wish might be heard by Kerun Lake's fairy and come true." Sha Chu said, looking at the large demon spirits sleeping by the lake, "Those demons are called Dou, extremely violent, and usually don't have a level below B. I've even seen an S-level Dou before. If it weren't that it couldn't fly, it would have killed me on the spot. These few Dou seem to only have one that is superior, not sure about the level."
While Sha Chu and Li Xiu were talking in the air, those Dou woke up, stood up, and roared at them in the sky.
They looked like wolves, but with bodies as huge as elephants, devoid of wolf fur but covered in thick scale armor.
One of the Dou had mysterious light patterns glowing in each black scale, seemingly a Flowing Color Demon Spirit.
Li Xiu summoned the Jedi Knight, diving directly at the Dou from the air.
The Dou had quite decent combat power, and their levels were not low, but in front of the Jedi Knight, they were like chopping vegetables, all slain in no time.
After the Flowing Color Dou was killed, demonic light gathered in one spot within its body, gradually forming a Demon Spirit Ring.
"Another Demon Spirit Ring appeared, your luck is truly remarkable, no wonder you have so many demon spirits." Sha Chu was both amazed and delighted.
Before they could descend to fetch the ring, they suddenly saw demonic light spreading beside them, and Jiuxiao Yun riding the Demon Shark appeared once more.
The Demon Shark leaped from the ground, and Jiuxiao Yun grabbed the Demon Spirit Ring formed by the Flowing Color Dou. In the air, he looked provocatively at Li Xiu and said, "You weren't planning on stealing from me, were you? If you have the skill, come and take it, let's see who ends up robbing whom?"
Jiuxiao Yun was all smug; he held grudges. Just now he had hidden underground, heard what Li Xiu said, and was waiting to act. Having now seized another Demon Spirit Ring, he felt quite pleased with himself.
Just as the Demon Shark was about to plunge into the ground, a white beam suddenly shot out from the side, whipping the Demon Shark like a whip and sending both the Demon Shark and Jiuxiao Yun flying.
Right beside them was Kerun Lake; the Demon Shark and Jiuxiao Yun fell into the lake with a splash.
Once in the water, the Demon Shark immediately struggled desperately, throwing Jiuxiao Yun off its back.
Though clearly a Super Spirit, and a fish at that, the Demon Shark struggled like it was drowning, yet its body continued to sink.
Jiuxiao Yun hurriedly summoned the Demon Shark back; everything was fine about the Demon Shark, except it sank the moment it entered water, completely unable to swim out.
"Did you think you could use the same trick on me twice?" Li Xiu stood by the lake, looking at Jiuxiao Yun in the water, and said with a smile.
