"Don’t worry, hey, Jie, why are you opening the window?"
Xiao Jie didn’t explain, just gave Gu Feiyu a slight smile, then turned his head and leapt out the window.
Eagle Transformation!
The moment he leapt, the skill activated simultaneously.
A sudden glow appeared on his body.
Different from the Essence Soul Transformation’s way of transforming and reassembling, this demon transformation was incredibly smooth. In the blink of an eye, the mana inside his body transformed his appearance. His arms became wings, his legs became talons, even the black windbreaker he wore naturally turned into luxurious black feathers, and his gray running shoes became gray eagle claws. In the blink of an eye, he transformed from human form into a giant gray eagle with a wingspan of nearly two meters.
Gu Feiyu was stunned, "Jie—"
Before the words finished, Xiao Jie had already plunged headfirst towards the ground.
Xiao Jie cursed under his breath. While vigorously flapping his wings and adjusting his posture, he realized he had indeed been a bit overconfident: he had never experienced flying before and was a bit inexperienced at transforming for the first time, which was indeed troublesome.
Of course, even if he fell, it probably wouldn’t matter. Given his physical constitution, he wouldn’t die from a hard fall.
But it would certainly be embarrassing.
Xiao Jie vigorously flapped his wings. Fortunately, he had the Legendary Talent of Demon Spirit Hundred Forms.
[Demon Spirit Hundred Forms (Legendary Talent/Linked Talent). You have absorbed the residual thoughts of numerous demon spirits and cultivated the three volumes of the Heavenly Book. The demon powers in your body have perfectly fused, granting you the extraordinary talent of Demon Spirit Hundred Forms. You can learn and use all Innate Techniques of the Demon Race without racial limitations.
Your talent [Learning from Beasts] has been enhanced, allowing you to learn beast skills without triggering negative effects.]
Owing to this talent, Xiao Jie’s control over different animal bodies and instincts was terrifyingly strong. In the blink of an eye, he mastered the knack of flying, and just two or three meters above the ground, he finally managed to change his flight direction.
With a vigorous spread of his wings, the lift generated by the air allowed him to soar towards the sky, flapping his wings and quickly ascending.
One flap, two flaps, three flaps—Xiao Jie quickly became proficient at flying, continuing to ascend. In no time, he had climbed to an altitude of one or two hundred meters.
Here, he finally could fly steadily. He hovered, gradually familiarizing himself with the secrets of flying, feeling the sensation of his wings soaring in the wind. A sense of freedom and joy spontaneously arose in his heart, as if nothing in heaven and earth could restrain his soul.
It felt as if he was born to be a mighty eagle soaring in the sky, naturally meant to hunt from above.
Xiao Jie did not lose himself in those subtle thoughts. This instinct was that of the gray eagle, not his own. Eventually, he would still need to come down and return to the comfort of his home.
But for now, it didn’t prevent him from thoroughly enjoying the joy of soaring to the sky.
Flapping his wings vigorously, Xiao Jie flew directly towards the depths of the sky.
Although his appearance was no different from an ordinary gray eagle, Xiao Jie’s physical constitution was incomparable to ordinary beasts. In the blink of an eye, he soared to a height of a thousand meters.
Everything on the ground became incredibly small. As he gained altitude, the wind grew stronger, with fierce gales causing Xiao Jie’s body to tremble slightly, sometimes lifting him up, sometimes throwing him out.
Xiao Jie struggled to maintain balance, acutely aware at this moment that what seemed like a calm and vast sky was, in reality, filled with countless invisible mountains and valleys formed by air currents. If he couldn’t find the patterns of those currents, flying would be immensely difficult.
Fortunately, the innate instincts of the gray eagle gradually allowed him to sense the direction and subtle changes of the air currents.
He stopped fighting against the gales and began navigating through the gaps between the currents, using his feathers to feel the changes in wind direction, elegantly and smoothly turning his wings and tail, gliding gracefully through the air.
As his awareness spread, he could feel every subtle shift in the air currents. Xiao Jie would sometimes weave upward, sometimes tighten his wings for a short dive.
Sometimes he would execute a beautiful side roll, easily accelerating with the help of the air currents.
A cloud appeared in front of him, blocking his path like a towering mountain. Xiao Jie didn’t recklessly enter it but instead skimmed along the cloud’s edge.
But the cloud layer was thicker than he anticipated. He thought he could easily bypass it, but with one careless move, he plunged into the cloud layer.
The humid and cold air surrounded him, and Xiao Jie couldn’t see his direction clearly. He steeled himself and flew straight up.
Suddenly breaking through the cloud layer, Xiao Jie was greeted by a vast and endless sea of clouds. He flapped his wings vigorously towards the sky again.
At this moment, he truly felt as if he might fly out of the Earth’s atmosphere. Below him was an endless sea of clouds, and beneath the cloud sea was the distant ground.
This feeling of being far from the ground made him both excited and joyous, yet also faintly fearful.
For some reason, maybe even he couldn’t explain it, he kept flying higher and higher. Soon the air grew thinner, but his strong constitution Visit NovelHub for more amazing novels and chapters. The surroundings gradually became colder, and climbing became increasingly difficult. Looking back at the ground, even cities and mountains appeared small and distant.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
No good... can’t fly any higher!
It wasn’t that he lacked strength, but the air had become too thin to provide enough lift. After all, a gray eagle isn’t a rocket; wings need to flap against the air to generate thrust. At this altitude, there was almost nothing left to leverage, making further ascent naturally impossible.
