109: Ancient spiritual creatures appear!

Boom boom boom — —

In the Seven-Colored Valley, several strong energy fluctuations suddenly erupted, causing some weaker fierce beasts to fall silent and flee with strange cries.

These energies intertwined and merged but then quickly separated after a brief touch.

“Roar roar roar!”

“Squeak squeak!”

“Caw — —”

Moments later, three familiar roars erupted, then appeared, gathering in one spot.

“I’ve broken through!”

Yuan Dali roared excitedly, and in his joy, he pounded his chest a few times, releasing a burst of wild strength, his muscles taut and defined.

Beside him, the two fierce beasts, Golden Feather and Centipede Qian Zu, also showed delighted expressions.

After a period of accumulation and with the spiritual energy riot having lasted for three days, they had finally successfully broken through to the third rank.

In an instant, the strength of these fierce beasts greatly increased!

“How large an area can you control now?”

After sensing the changes in his strength, Centipede Qian Zu looked at Golden Feather, chirping with curiosity.

The latter immediately became smug, “I only need half the time I used to to patrol the entire Yunxia Mountain Range, and even if I fly higher, I can still see the ground clearly.”

“I’m pretty much the same. I can command my children to explore even further places.”

Centipede Qian Zu nodded in approval. After all, after breaking through, his control over the other giant centipedes became even more precise, allowing him to gather information from more subtle areas.

Seeing the gazes of his two friends focused on him, Yuan Dali chuckled a few times.

“I can create more offspring now.”

“Tsk…”

“Oh!”

The three fierce beasts frolicked for a while, then all went to find Xia Fan.

They were almost impatient to tell their King the news.

However, as soon as they appeared, they felt an even stronger aura. Yuan Dali exclaimed in surprise, his roar filled with shock, “King… King is already at the late third rank?”

Before reaching the third rank, they could only roughly sense Xia Fan’s power, understanding that he surpassed them by one rank. Now, at the same stage, they were even more sensitive to this feeling.

“That’s right.”

Xia Fan nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over his subordinates, and he couldn’t help but be very satisfied, “You all have gained a lot too.”

Currently, he had also advanced to the late third rank, still the most powerful existence in the Yunxia Mountain Range.

Moreover, the changes in strength of Yuan Dali and the other fierce beasts were within expectations, so he wasn’t overly excited.

“Tiger Brother, I feel so powerful now!”

At this moment, the Magic Cat, who had been silent for a long time, confidently circled around Xia Fan for a while, very excited, “I feel like I have endless strength in my body.”

“Why don’t we try combining with you and see the changes?”

Hearing the meaning in these calls, Xia Fan was also very curious, so he readily agreed.

Boom — —

In an instant, Xia Fan’s aura surged. With just a light leap, he covered a distance of tens of meters, and the strength in his limbs also greatly increased. He immediately felt a hint of surprise, “Not bad, among the third rank, I should be an invincible existence.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Golden Feather let out a long cry, “King, why do I feel like your aura just now exceeded the third rank?”

The other fierce beasts also looked over curiously, as they all had the same feeling.

Xia Fan did not hide this matter. After all, they were all his subordinates, so he let out a few low growls, “Golden Feather, you are right. With the little cat’s blessing, I briefly reached the fourth rank, so my strength greatly increased.”

“However, this state should not last too long, otherwise, it would be a huge drain on the little cat.”

At these words, all the fierce beasts were dumbfounded.

This was the fourth rank, a whole major realm higher than them.

Although it was only temporary, the increase in strength was real, and thus they were all very envious and proud.

Xia Fan, however, understood that the Magic Cat’s auxiliary abilities would become more and more apparent in the later stages. Otherwise, the Magic Cat in his previous life would not have been able to rank among the King-level fierce beasts just by being an auxiliary fierce beast!

“I feel that even if King and the little cat disengage from their combined state, it would still be terrifying.”

Yuan Dali, however, noticed this point, and after he expressed his thoughts, the other fierce beasts immediately nodded in agreement.

Xia Fan’s aura directly made them all tremble, even though they had already broken through to the third rank.

On this day, in addition to the fierce beasts under Xia Fan’s command increasing their strength, several large trees in a few mountains also gained sentience.

Crack — —

With a crisp sound, a redwood tree, dozens of meters tall, voluntarily broke off one of its branches.

At its base, a squirrel with bulging muscles happened to pass by, startled by the sudden movement.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The squirrel immediately fled, but the redwood’s leaves instantly turned into steel needles, shooting out and directly riddling it, leaving it motionless after a few struggles.

By a small stream, a willow tree was half-dead, but as the surrounding spiritual energy grew richer, it surprisingly regained its vitality.

This old willow swayed its branches, having already fully explored the surrounding situation… “Is that so?”

Xia Fan heard the news from the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine, learning of the birth of these ‘peers,’ and couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

But he quickly relaxed.

After all, at this stage, no plant could rival the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine.

The Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine had already gained sentience at the beginning of the spiritual energy riot and possessed great strength.

Now, the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine was so powerful that even Xia Fan himself felt a huge threat. Fortunately, this Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine was one he raised and directly obeyed him, so there was no need to worry.

“It’s time to go to Tai Xu Mountain!”

At this moment, Xia Fan looked up, his gaze fixed on the distance, and he suddenly thought of this point and decided to take action.

He still remembered that in his previous life, after the spiritual energy riot, some legendary ancient divine artifacts would descend upon the world, attracting fierce competition from all sides.

In this life, he would definitely participate and return with a full harvest… Tai Xu Mountain, located in the central part of China, is a complete natural ecological zone and is considered an area controlled by humans.

This mountain is extremely high, with peaks reaching into the clouds perpetually shrouded in mist, as if immortals resided there.

Crack!

Clang — —

On the fourth morning after the spiritual energy riot, a crack suddenly opened at the top of the mountain, causing the spiritual energy in the area to become chaotic and unstable, scattering like wind in all directions.

Behind this crack, an ancient, simple bell suddenly appeared, its continuous chimes drifting in all directions.

Pfft — —

Even more unexpectedly, when the bell rang, large numbers of fierce beasts in the mountain bled from their mouths and noses, dying instantly.

Even those fierce beasts far from the location, or those with stronger abilities, were directly severely injured!
