Ling Xiao, this chap, made secret technique scrolls for the first time. Though they were all the same type, he ensured a hundred percent success rate.
Even Yuan Zun, once hailed as a peerless genius, didn’t have such ability.
“Master, here are a hundred ‘ordinary treasure-grade Tiger Roar secret technique scrolls’, all successful. Your disciple’s talent isn’t bad, right?”
Ling Xiao asked excitedly, holding the scrolls he crafted.
“Hmm, not too shabby.”
Yuan Zun thought he shouldn’t let the lad get too cocky, lest he stray down a wrong path later.
The Tiger Roar secret technique was a scroll that suddenly unleashed a “tiger roar”, capable of launching a sonic attack on enemies. No matter the martial artist, it would have some effect.
Naturally, the weaker the cultivation, the greater the impact.
Ordinary treasure-grade secret technique scrolls could generally affect martial artists below the third level of the Mortal Realm.
Especially when used suddenly, they could even stun opponents briefly. For those with weak cultivation and frail bodies, it might even cause instant death.
“Right, in these two days, my injuries have healed, and I’ve grasped the method of making secret technique scrolls. Next, we should search for herbs to prepare another hundred-year Nine Dragon Quenching Pill, yes?”
Ling Xiao asked.
Boom!
As Yuan Zun was about to speak, the entire cave shook violently.
Ling Xiao and Yuan Zun exchanged a glance, then both rushed out of the cave.
Outside, they realised the explosion was quite far, about a few miles away.
Ling Xiao’s eyesight was exceptional. Activating his Mountain River Martial Soul, he focused and saw, roughly six or seven miles away, a bizarre-looking three-headed tiger.
“Blimey, Master, what on earth is that three-headed tiger? It feels insanely powerful. It’s not just a vile beast, is it?”
“Correct, that’s no vile beast. That thing is likely one of the nine demon kings of the True Demon Empire from back then, the Ferocious Beast Demon King! I never imagined this brute’s cultivation has recovered to such a terrifying level!”
Yuan Zun’s eyesight was no less sharp than Ling Xiao’s, and he knew far more.
Ferocious Beast Demon King!
Hearing this name, Ling Xiao felt not fear but a surge of wild joy.
Coming to Thousand Ghost Forest was absolutely the right call. He’d been wanting to complete his collection.
He’d already acquired a Plague Demon King, and now he’d encountered the Ferocious Beast Demon King. What was this if not luck?
But this Ferocious Beast Demon King’s cultivation seemed to have recovered more fully than the Plague Demon King’s.
“Master, what realm is this Ferocious Beast Demon King in?”
Ling Xiao swallowed hard and asked. In the face of such a powerful monster, he felt utterly incapable of resisting.
“Just entered the Yin-Yang Realm!”
Yuan Zun’s voice trembled.
A Yin-Yang Realm existence on Heavenly Dragon Continent?
How was that possible!
The so-called Yin-Yang Realm meant mastering yin and yang, capable of reviving even from death!
This was above the Cave Heaven Realm!
But on Heavenly Dragon Continent, the strongest martial artists were only at the Cave Heaven Realm. For the Ferocious Beast Demon King to have recovered to the terrifying Yin-Yang Realm was utterly shocking.
If it wished, couldn’t it wipe out the entire Heavenly Dragon Continent?
“But someone dares to provoke a Yin-Yang Realm Ferocious Beast Demon King. This person’s cultivation must be no slouch, at least a top-tier Cave Heaven Realm existence!”
Yuan Zun analysed.
“It’s a woman. Hmm, Master, I think I’ve seen her before.”
Ling Xiao frowned. “Her aura feels a lot like the master of Moonlight Sect’s Death-Defying Tower.”
“Is it really her?”
“Can’t be certain, but probably close. She must’ve taken that level-ten mission, only to run into a Yin-Yang Realm Ferocious Beast Demon King here.”
Ling Xiao shook his head. “I’ll go take a look.”
“Be careful. A clash between such powerhouses is terrifying. One misstep, and you could be reduced to nothing. Think it through.”
Yuan Zun warned.
“Don’t worry, Master. Don’t forget I have a martial soul clone.”
He grinned, stored Yuan Zun in his beast ring, then quietly moved toward the scene.
Above, the scorching sun blazed.
In the sky, waves of terrifying energy surged.
Like divine thunder from the heavens, massive booms echoed endlessly.
Even miles away, Ling Xiao could feel his heart racing uncontrollably.
He’d seen plenty of powerhouses, but never a Cave Heaven Realm, let alone a Yin-Yang Realm.
The Moonlight Sect’s leader, Chang Yueying, hadn’t given him such pressure. He reckoned she was likely a top-tier Heavenly Human Realm expert but definitely not Cave Heaven Realm.
As he pressed forward, Ling Xiao channelled all his true essence into defence, using his soul power to protect himself.
He wasn’t thinking of attacking anyone. To get close to those two terrifying beings, he first had to ensure he wouldn’t be torn apart by their terrifying true essence fluctuations.
If that woman was indeed the Death-Defying Tower master, things just got interesting. For her to dare challenge a Yin-Yang Realm Ferocious Beast Demon King, she must have some tricks.
As Master Yuan Zun said, her cultivation was likely at least top-tier Cave Heaven Realm.
And Ling Xiao suspected she might have some treasure.
Otherwise, across such a vast realm gap, the Death-Defying Tower master couldn’t possibly match the Ferocious Beast Demon King.
This Ferocious Beast Demon King likely awoke much earlier than the Plague Demon King, hence its terrifying strength.
The mystery of Thousand Ghost Forest was now clear.
The missing martial artists weren’t taken by ghosts but used as materials for the Ferocious Beast Demon King’s recovery.
Yet this Ferocious Beast Demon King was so cautious, staying hidden even at this realm.
Could there be something on Heavenly Dragon Continent still capable of restraining it?
Though Ling Xiao pondered these things, his eyes stayed fixed on the battle in the distance.
Black light dominated nearly the entire sky, the Ferocious Beast Demon King’s true essence power.
A smaller, yet highly condensed blue light, never faltering, was likely his opponent’s true essence.
The black true essence nearing the blue light couldn’t advance further.
Ling Xiao marvelled. This woman was clever, whether she was the Death-Defying Tower master or not. Her approach was the wisest.
In total true essence, she clearly couldn’t match the Ferocious Beast Demon King, so she chose not to waste it, condensing it around her body.
This way, in a small area, her true essence gained the upper hand.
Though the Ferocious Beast Demon King was terrifying, its true essence was spread too widely, less effective than such concentrated power.
Breaking a surface with a point was a basic martial technique, like how finger techniques could counter palm strikes.
