Lin Ling stood where she was, watching Ye Tian's retreating figure and murmuring to herself, 'This guy is really interesting. Trying to shake off like this... there must be a reason. I'll have to keep so distance and observe him for a while.'
Ye Tian hadn't actually gone far. He stopped in front of a large tree, leaped swiftly onto a branch, and concealed himself. Now, he needed to see if Lin Ling would follow.
Lin Ling didn't follow imdiately. Instead, she walked off in another direction. It seed his words had worked, and she was no longer tailing him.
Ye Tian didn't co down from the tree right away. He took out a Spirit Stone and began to absorb it. Since he couldn't let the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python out, he had no choice but to absorb the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stone himself.
Ye Tian finally stopped after more than two hours. The Dragon Spiritual Power within his body was now saturated. Slaying the Jungle Tiger had given him a new understanding of his own Power Realm. He could now probably fight a King at the Second Vein Seventh Layer, or even the Eighth Layer.
'Of course, if I used the War Dragon Heavenly Arm, I could probably even kill an expert at the Three Veins Second Layer, or maybe even the Third Layer. It's just... I really can't bear to use this Heaven-defying Skill that I can only activate once a month.'
Ye Tian slowly extended his Divine Sense to scan the surrounding forest for any movent. His main objective, of course, was to find Lin Ling. Her sudden appearance behind him earlier had been far too surprising.
He was especially careful with his scan this ti. With his Power Realm having improved, Ye Tian could now detect movent up to five li away. This ti, he was certain Lin Ling was not in the area. 'Maybe she really did get angry and leave.'
However, within the range of his Divine Sense, he discovered quite a few ferocious Demon Beasts. What surprised Ye Tian the most was that he spotted another Jungle Tiger.
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. He had just killed one, yet here was another. 'Could they be a male and female pair?' The absurd thought popped into his head.
Among all these Demon Beasts, only this remaining Jungle Tiger was worth his ti. The others were relatively weaker.
Ye Tian didn't imdiately go to kill the Jungle Tiger. He had already made up his mind. 'If I can confirm that Lin Ling has left, I'll let the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python kill the Jungle Tiger. All I need is its Magic Crystal.'
As for the Jungle Tiger's corpse, it would beco the python's al. However, he knew he still needed to observe for a while longer. Four Vein Powerhouses had ways of concealing their presence.
So, Ye Tian simply closed his eyes and began to review the later forms of the Dragon Form Hundred Transformations in his mind. He had originally wanted to practice Fist Techniques and Palm Techniques, but that seed impossible here. That kind of training required true seclusion. In this environnt, improving his speed and evasion was the top priority.
The cultivation variations for the moves following the First Form slowly materialized in his mind. To his great surprise, the final two variations appeared this ti.
If he could fully master the cultivation of these last two variations, Ye Tian would be able to begin cultivating the Second Form.
The First Form was already so powerful; the Second Form would surely be even more terrifying. A sense of urgency and excitent filled Ye Tian's heart.
He rehearsed the forms over and over in his mind. Ye Tian sat there, motionless on the branch, for three whole days.
Slowly, Ye Tian opened his eyes. Although he hadn't fully comprehended the final two variations, he had at least reached a preliminary stage. He knew it was ti to deal with that Jungle Tiger.
Still, he first made a point of extending his Divine Sense to check his surroundings. The Jungle Tiger was still in the dense forest, but the corpse of the one he had killed was gone, likely devoured by other Demon Beasts.
After scanning for a long ti without finding any sign of Lin Ling, Ye Tian was finally at ease. He leaped down from the tree and slowly made his way toward the Jungle Tiger's location.
Not long after Ye Tian jumped down, a graceful figure descended from another large tree less than two hundred ters away. It was, of course, Lin Ling.
It was perfectly normal that Ye Tian couldn't detect her. Lin Ling was born with a mastery of the Wood Attribute, allowing her to rge her aura with the trees.
When Ye Tian's Divine Sense swept past her, all he could perceive was a large tree, not Lin Ling herself. This was also why Lin Ling had been able to appear so suddenly when he killed the first Jungle Tiger.
'This Ye Tian really is full of secrets,' Lin Ling muttered to herself. 'Staying in a tree for three days straight... If I weren't so patient, I would have actually been fooled by you. I'd like to see just what you're up to!'
Ye Tian walked slowly through the dense forest, gradually drawing closer to the Jungle Tiger. When he finally saw it, he was stunned. This one was nearly twice the size of the one he had killed.
It stood over three ters tall and was more than six ters long. The leaf-shaped patterns ford by Energy Elents on its back had already turned a deep brown. Needless to say, this beast was undoubtedly the king of this forest.
Ye Tian had spotted the Jungle Tiger, and so had Lin Ling. When she saw it, her expression changed instantly, revealing a look of worry and fear.
"What kind of monster is this Ye Tian? To actually run into the Jungle Tiger King... That thing has the Attack Power of at least the Three Veins Realm. If I don't save him this ti, he could really be in danger," Lin Ling said with frustration.
Of course, Ye Tian had no idea how formidable this Jungle Tiger was. In his eyes, it was rely food for the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python, and a source for a Wood Elent Magic Crystal.
Ye Tian scanned the area once more and, finding nothing out of the ordinary, summoned the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python from within his body with a thought.
"Boss, you finally let out! I was suffocating in there!" was the first thing the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python said upon appearing, its voice full of complaint.
"I just didn't have a chance, did I? See that big fella over there? Are you confident you can take it down? It's a tasty al, you know!" Ye Tian said with a smile.
The Eight-winged Golden Scale Python glanced at the Jungle Tiger not far away and said, "A piece of cake. After eating this guy, I won't need any Energy for half a month. It's been a long ti since I've eaten a Demon Beast. I can finally have a proper feast today."
"But be careful. After you kill it, don't devour it right away. I need to get the Magic Crystal first!" Ye Tian instructed.
"Don't worry, Boss! I guarantee you'll be satisfied. Just you wait!" With that, the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python flapped its two wings and shot rapidly toward the Jungle Tiger.
anwhile, not far away, Lin Ling was so astonished she was at a loss for words. She had suspected Ye Tian had a secret, but she never imagined it would be this huge. The guy actually had a Demon Pet—and a talking one at that! This was simply unbelievable!
