36: Unify Yunxia Mountain!

"Tiger Brother, that Golden-Feathered Eagle King just flew over our heads."

On the back of Yunxia Mountain, in front of a cliff, Xia Fan and the Magic Cat continued to advance.

The Magic Cat looked up, reported the discovery to Xia Fan, and then continued walking with him towards the east side of the cliff.

Just now, they had subdued the Golden-Feathered Eagle King.

After Xia Fan controlled it with his Soul Fire, he ordered the Golden-Feathered Eagle King to continue patrolling the sky. Any fierce beasts attempting to enter the Yunxia Mountain Range were to be killed on sight, without needing to report.

"That's its mission, ignore it."

Xia Fan let out a few low roars, speeding up his pace and sprinting towards the east.

Shortly after, one tiger and one cat stopped in front of a dense, dark, and incredibly damp forest.

Looking ahead, the forest was surrounded by a milky-white mist. At this moment, a bird, startled by Xia Fan's aura, stumbled into the mist.

Thump—

Almost in the blink of an eye, the bird's body stiffened and fell to the ground.

"This mist is poisonous!"

Seeing this, Xia Fan's pupils slightly contracted, thinking to himself that the Yunxia Mountain Range truly harbored hidden talents, concealing many powerful fierce beasts.

Where the bird fell, numerous white bones were scattered, and judging from their skeletons, they were all from fierce beasts!

"Finally here."

Xia Fan was in a very pleasant mood. Although he had not yet seen the fierce beast hidden in the forest, relevant memories had already surfaced: "Thousand-Legged Centipede, one of the Nine-Tailed Fox's three great generals!"

"Its awakened ability is potent venom, and the Thousand-Legged Centipede retained its innate ability from before it became a fierce beast—Earth escape!"

"Little one, cast a shield on me, one that can ward off poison."

After he gave the command, the Magic Cat instantly transformed into a purple light. When it reappeared beside Xia Fan, a light green energy shield appeared around the latter.

Xia Fan no longer hesitated and strode into the forest.

Now, with the Magic Cat by his side, he had no fear of the venom's erosion, so the thin mist ahead had no effect on him.

Crack!

A crisp snapping sound instantly rang out as he stepped on the white bones of some fierce beast.

Xia Fan suddenly noticed that beneath the white bones, there were quite a few centipedes the length of a finger. At this moment, as if startled, they frantically scurried deeper into the forest.

He knew this was the Thousand-Legged Centipede's warning mechanism placed at the forest's edge, but he did not stop them, continuing to advance deeper into the forest.

Rustle, rustle, rustle—

Gradually, a series of rubbing sounds echoed through the forest—the sound of countless venomous centipedes crawling.

Furthermore, as Xia Fan and the Magic Cat advanced, these venomous centipedes grew increasingly larger.

At this moment, a venomous centipede the length of an arm suddenly flew out, its pincers gleaming with an eerie cold light, aimed directly at the Golden Giant Tiger's paw.

Squish!

But in the next second, Xia Fan raised his front paw and brought it down as if on a leisurely stroll. The venomous centipede was instantly crushed, and its greenish-blue bodily fluids sprayed out.

Those fluids landed on the green energy shield around him, emitting sizzling corrosive sounds, but with a flash of green light, they all disappeared.

"Go!"

Seeing more and more venomous centipedes gathering around them, Xia Fan roared at the Magic Cat, directly activating the Rage Berserk Technique, and charged wildly through the forest.

Wherever he went, those giant venomous centipedes, like mantises trying to stop a chariot, were crushed into dust!

In a short period, Xia Fan left a trail of bodily fluids behind him.

"The Thousand-Legged Centipede must be nearby."

When he noticed that no more venomous centipedes were rushing towards them like moths to a flame, Xia Fan stopped and looked around the dense forest.

It was utterly silent here. Besides the overgrown trees and weeds, there was no sign of any living creature, not even a mosquito.

The dense forest was eerily silent!

Boom—

Suddenly, a tremendous tremor emanated.

Xia Fan followed the sound and immediately saw thick trees being savagely pushed aside by an immense force, then toppling to either side.

The commotion ahead grew more intense; he could even see a massive figure winding its way beneath the soil, stealthily approaching him!

"Swoosh!"

The next second, a colossal creature burst from the ground, sending countless soil particles shooting out like bullets in all directions.

In Xia Fan's vision, a vast expanse of red suddenly appeared. Its incredibly huge pincers were stained with an unknown liquid.

Looking further back, behind the red pincers was a shiny black, hard exoskeleton. Within its eerie cold glow, terrifying venom seemed to be hidden; even a tiny touch could be fatal.

"What a huge centipede!"

The Magic Cat instantly shrieked, its eyes wide open!

It was a gigantic centipede over ten meters long, with most of its body covered in hard black armor. Its bright yellow segmented legs were as thick as an adult's waist, and there were a huge number of them!

As the Thousand-Legged Centipede flew into mid-air, its giant pincers slightly opened, seemingly intending to snap the Golden Giant Tiger in half.

"Hmph!"

"I've been waiting for you!"

Xia Fan let out an angry roar, skillfully dodged the Thousand-Legged Centipede's attack, then leaped, flying to the top of the Thousand-Legged Centipede's head, and swiftly thrust out his golden-glowing tiger claws.

However, the Thousand-Legged Centipede twisted its body in a peculiar way.

It exposed its hardest black armor, curled itself into a ball, and crashed to the ground.

By the time Xia Fan's attack arrived, it had already burrowed back into the ground, and the surrounding soil immediately began to churn.

"A cowardly rat, hiding and sneaking around!"

Xia Fan cursed inwardly, but his eyes were constantly fixed on the disturbed soil.

Soon, the Thousand-Legged Centipede tried the same trick again, but this time it burst out directly from about three meters away from Xia Fan, spewing a large amount of emerald green venom from its mouth.

Buzz—

The Magic Cat immediately used its ability again, helping Xia Fan block the erosion of the potent venom.

"Amethyst Seal!"

The latter roared even louder, and purple light burst forth inch by inch, instantly striking the Thousand-Legged Centipede.

"Hehe, you can't escape now!"

Xia Fan couldn't help but feel quite pleased.

He took advantage of the Thousand-Legged Centipede's confusion about why it couldn't use its abilities and pounced again.

At this moment, the Thousand-Legged Centipede could no longer continue to burrow.

Thud—

With a crisp sound, the Thousand-Legged Centipede's black armor was instantly pierced, causing it to throw its head back and let out an angry howl.

Its massive body twisted continuously, causing all the surrounding trees to be pulverized.

Xia Fan attacked intermittently, letting it struggle in its death throes, until he seized an opportunity and fiercely unleashed his Soul Fire.

Gradually, the Thousand-Legged Centipede weakened, and shortly after, it let out a low cry towards Xia Fan, a voice entering his mind, "Master."

At this point, all three of the Nine-Tailed Fox's generals from his previous life had been brought under his command.

Xia Fan had finally unified the Yunxia Mountain Range!
