Deathly Forest
“Huft... This tiger is a little hard to drop.” Jian Chen muttered as he gazed towards the Death Tiger that he had split.
“Yes, his strength must be very close to a seventh stage Martial Master level cultivator.” Xiao Yu nodded in agreement with what Jian Chen said.
Before the two of them spoke again, Hui-Ying who had a small body jumped up and down quickly in front of the corpse of the Hell Tiger.
Jian Chen stared at it with curiosity. At first he knew that if Hui-Ying did not use a certain roar technique that made the Tigers of Death freeze on the spot, the fight would definitely drag on. With his cooperation with Xiao Yu, it would take a very long time to take down the Tiger of Death.
“Hui-Ying, what do you want to do?” Xiao Yu asked who was approaching.
“Weaouu..” Hui-Ying meowed slightly as she stared towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu's steps came to a complete halt when he saw Hui-Ying answer his question even though he had no idea what it meant. He stared at Jian Chen to ask for his answer as only Jian Chen understood what Hui-Ying had said.
Seeing Xiao Yu looking at him for answers, he simply shrugged then pointed towards Hui-Ying.
When Xiao Yu stared back at Hui-Ying, his eyes widened instantly as he did not expect that Hui-Ying would enlarge in an instant reaching five meters high.
“Grap..” Hui-Ying instantly devoured the corpse of the Death Tiger and swallowed it in a short period of time.
Blug up!
Xiao Yu stepped back and fell to the ground. He sat down with a dazed face as he did not expect that Hui-Ying would turn into a fierce-looking tiger from the form of a very cute little tiger.
Jian Chen only stared at the incident because he certainly already knew. Hui-Ying had told him when they were about to fight the Death Tiger that he could help with a certain technique that could make him great even though Jian Chen did not allow it because Hui-Ying's strength was still weak.
Hui-Ying shrank in an instant and a hazy blue light enveloped her. When that happened, Hui-Ying's claws looked sharper than before even though her body was still tiny.
However, Hui-Ying acted strangely. He slowly rolled onto the ground and tried rubbing his back as if it were itching.
“Hui-Ying, what are you doing?” Jian Chen asked as he took the little tiger into his arms.
“Weaouu.. weaouu.” Hui-ying.
Jian Chen slightly twitched as Hui-Ying had him scratch his back. But he just scratched the stage Hui-Ying and he squinted a little.
There was a small bone that appeared on Hui-Ying's back and he understood why the little tiger was itching.
“Is this a wing bone? Wait, the previous tiger guarding Hui-Ying seemed to have no wings at all. Is this because of mixed blood or what?” Inner Jian Chen and made a speculation. He felt that what he thought was true that Hui-Ying was a slightly different species from the previous blue tiger who asked him for help.
“It was a technique possessed by Hui-Ying that would be directly inherited by him when he was born. That's what Hui-Ying said earlier.” Jian Chen immediately said about the Hui-Ying technique.
“What? How big can he be when using that technique?” Xiao Yu asked in surprise because if Hui-Ying had grown up, it was certain that her body would be extremely large when using such a technique.
“Weaouu.. weaouu Hui-Ying spoke long.
“No, she will forever have this small shape. But, when the type has grown up, they can maintain their previous shape within years without consuming any qi at all.” Jian Chen said as he stared at Hui-Ying as he translated what the little tiger said.
“Oh.. turned out that way. But, with his previous form, it is certain that Hui-Ying will always be able to fight to help us even though he has not grown up.”, said Xiao Yu a little excited. He also imagined when Hui-Ying in his previous big form and he rode it.
“Yes. But that is if he has reached our cultivation level. But it seems that it won't be long because Hui-Ying has the ability to devour other spirit beasts and make them a force for her body.” Jian Chen said as he looked at Hui-Ying who had reached the strength of a first stage Martial Master. He was well aware that using such means, only a small increase would be received by the little tiger.
Otherwise, then Hui-Ying's ability would have been extremely outrageous if it could reach extremely high strength just by devouring. He was well aware that this was the law of Nature to balance the world.
Imagine if the still-little Hui-Ying devoured the strength of a Martial Earth-level spirit beast and its power reached that. It is certain that the Hui-Ying species will rule the entire world as all creatures will fall prey to them.
However, the greatest increase in strength was devouring other tiger-type spirit beasts. He doesn't understand why it happened. But he had speculated that this possibility was for all the other tiger spirit animal tribes to be hostile towards the Celestial Tiger God type.
“Then, still it is a very good ability.” Xiao Yu said staring at Hui-Ying.
“Yes. Let's go, chances are many spirit beasts will come to this place because it smells the smell of blood.” Jian Chen said as he glanced towards the corpse of the cultivator who had not been devoured by the Death Tiger before. He immediately jumped onto the tree followed by Xiao Yu.
The two continued moving within the Deathly Forest and noticed all the places present.
On the way, the two of them often took a slight turn due to the presence of the powerful spirit beast that Jian Chen had detected.
The purpose of the two of them coming to the Deathly Forest was to look for certain opportunities to increase strength, not against all spirit beasts.
After moving for several hours, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu arrived at a slightly interesting place.
The two were currently standing on a tree branch while paying attention to an area that was nearly 100 meters away.
“Layak is named as the Forest of Death.” Xiao Yu said as he stared far ahead.
Jian Chen gave a small nod as he stared at a small piece of evidence that was emitting red steam mixed in black. Before reaching the hill, within a radius of nearly 30 meters, only a skull was visible.
The skulls are made up of the skulls of humans and spirit animals. Judging from the fragility of many bones and some that seemed to fade in the wind, it is certain that all these bones must be hundreds or even thousands of years old.
Jian Chen used the Eternal Purple Crystal to see what was there exactly. After careful examination, he raised the corner of his lips. “Interesting, it seems we have to enter that dangerous place because there are many good things there.” Inner Jian Chen and decided to go to the small hill named by all the cultivators on the island of Lizawa as, Skull Hill.
