Chapter 40. Abnormal Phenomenon: Dragon Elephant Zetian!
One cultivation day of a human was equivalent to a hundred years of demonic cultivation.
Compared to humans, demon beasts’ cultivation path was more than a hundred times harder.
Unlike human cultivators who had a set cultivation system. Most of the demon beasts didn’t have much intelligence, and they didn’t have the assistance of a sect. All of them relied on their bloodline to awaken.
The stronger their bloodline was, the easier it would be to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and complete their transformation.But who said that bloodline inheritance was by any means easy?
Even among ten thousand ordinary Sharp-toothed Tigers, it was difficult for a single Scarlet Flame Tiger to appear.
However, life was fair. Although it did not give them innate intelligence, it allowed them to possess terrifying flesh and strength.
Ordinary Foundation Establishment demon beasts’ combined combat strength was no less than a Golden Core cultivator!
On the other hand, this Golden Core Scarlet Flame Tiger’s strength was even more terrifying to the point of being immeasurable. If the Sheng Zi of any sect were to encounter it, they would have to avoid clashing head-on with the tiger.
“Senior, this should be its territory. Let’s retreat and change paths!” Xiao Qingge said rationally.
Li Ran was very strong, but after all, he was only eighteen.This Scarlet Flame Tiger’s demonic flames seemed to scorch up to the heavens, at least, it should have cultivated for hundreds of years!
“Retreat?” Li Ran shook his head. “I hate detours the most. Why don’t you talk with it, and tell it to pretend to not see us?”
Xiao Qingge was dumbfounded. “…”
Whoosh!
The flames on the Scarlet Flame Tiger’s body surged, and steam surged out from its nose. Its scarlet eyes were filled with oppressive killing intent.
Its intelligence was already activated. Even though it didn’t understand what the two of them said, it was able to distinguish Li Ran’s disdainful tone.
No human had ever dared to act presumptuously before it.
“After blocking my path, you still have a temper?” Li Ran frowned and said, “It’s not easy for you to cultivate this far. I’ll give you one last chance……”
Roar!
Before he could finish speaking, the killing intent in Scarlet Flame Tiger’s eyes became more ferocious as it charged over with its flames.
“Be careful!” Xiao Qingge cried out in alarm.
However, she was stunned by the scene before her.
“You are the one seeking death…” The air behind Li Ran’s back twisted with a soft hum.
The void shattered, and an enormous giant strode out from the void crack.
The giant’s body was red, and its body shone with dazzling golden light. Its muscles were solid like steel.
A divine dragon was wrapped around its left arm and a giant elephant was captured in its right hand. Behind the figure lies an endless river of cosmic stars.
The starry figure shone brilliantly, and the dragon’s imposing aura was comparable to the boundless starry sky!
It was as if the pressure from the figure had touched upon the depths of its soul. The flames in the Scarlet Flame Tiger’s entire body converged as it crawled on the ground and trembled with fear.
In front of the giant, it was as small as an ant!
Li Ran was shocked.
This was his first time using a Qi Manifestation skill. This abnormal phenomenon was too grandiose.
“Such a sight to behold! Tsk, tsk, if this was a special effect in the modern world, this scene would definitely burn a lot of money!”
The giant, whose face was unidentifiable, lowered its head and looked at the Scarlet Flame Tiger, who had lost its fighting spirit. The giant raised its right foot and kicked at the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
Boom!
Divine light exploded, and a fierce wind whistled. The trees several kilometers ahead were blown down by the hurricane.
Blood sprayed out of the Scarlet Flame Tiger’s mouth, and its muscles and bones shattered as it shot out like a meteor.
The beast’s hundreds of years of cultivation were wiped out by a single kick!
“Nice kick!”
Li Ran cheered on the sideline. He couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration as he watched the tiger grow smaller and smaller.
“If national football is at this level, I wonder what it would feel like to play in the World Cup*?”
[TLN: I’m assuming he is comparing the skill now, to how strong the skill would be when he becomes stronger.]
Buzz~
The giant’s body disappeared, slowly disappearing into the void.
Li Ran nodded in satisfaction. This Qi Manifestation skill is too useful!
Moreover, his intuition told him that the power of the “Dragon Elephant Zetian” was far more than that.
Whether it was the shirtless ascetic, the divine dragon, or the giant elephant, there were many wonderful uses.
However, Li Ran’s current cultivation wasn’t sufficient to fully utilize this skill.
Xiao Qingge sat on the ground, her eyes dull.
What happened just now?
A giant suddenly appeared and kicked the Golden Core stage Scarlet Flame Tiger flying?
“My god…” She pinched her cheek, making sure this wasn’t a dream.
“Hurry up or we won’t be able to reach the secret realm before it opens,” Li Ran walked over and said.
“That… was the manifestation of your Qi?” Xiao Qingge asked.
“You can take it like that.” Li Ran nodded.
Xiao Qingge’s voice shook.
This was the first time she had heard that a Golden Core cultivator was able to manifest their Qi!
“Could Li Ran really be the reincarnation of an immortal emperor? If not, this matter is really hard to explain!”
“Laughable, I thought I could compare to him… Even if my cultivation is still here, the difference between me and him is like a cloud and mud!” Xiao Qingge looked at Li Ran with admiration.
The two continued their journey.
Due to the giant’s kick, the tornado broke the trees in front of him, forming a plain road that was several kilometers long.
Walking on the road was easier.
Inside the depths of the forest.
At the side, there was a stone door on the rock wall. There was deep divine light flickering at the gap between the doors.
A group of men and women stood in front of the door, they all looked young.
Everyone’s backgrounds were unimaginably huge, amongst them, the worst one was the direct disciple of a first-rate sect.
At this moment, they looked at a white-robed man, who was their leader.
This person was a direct disciple of the Supreme Dao Palace, Song Qingsong!
“Senior Brother Song, with you in the secret realm this time around, the trip will be akin to taking a walk in a field… we can just drink tea in wait.” the others said flattery words.
Song Qingsong shook his head and smiled. “Don’t say that. Fate is unpredictable. We can only depend on our abilities.”
Although his smile was warm, his eyes were filled with contempt.
Only when his sight moved to a girl dressed in green with a long sword, did seriousness appear on his face.
“Why is the Myriad Sword Pavillion here?”
