"Yang Xiao, did you really, really ta this Barbaric Beast?"
Spreading its wings and soaring through the sky, the beast had flown dozens of miles from the Purple Sun Sect in just a few monts.
It was only then that Cheng Boxuan ca to his senses and asked Yang Xiao excitedly.
"Yes. From now on, this Barbaric Beast is mine."
Yang Xiao nodded indifferently.
He seed as if he couldn't care less.
But his casual deanor left Cheng Boxuan and Qin Yan staring, dumbfounded.
As a high-ranking mber of the Purple Sun Sect and one of its talented juniors, they were naturally aware of the relationship between the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast and the Purple Sun Sect.
But now…
"Junior Brother Yang… No, Senior Brother Yang is truly incredible! He can even ta a Tier Four Low Grade Barbaric Beast. He's… so amazing."
This ti, Qin Yan no longer dared to think of Yang Xiao as her junior brother.
His aura wasn't strong; he only seed to be at the Second or Third Layer of the Innate Realm. He was also very young—several years younger than her, in fact.
But he was now the Junior Sect Leader, and he possessed such divine skills. Qin Yan felt she could no longer be presumptuous around him.
As for Cheng Boxuan, he was even more incredulous.
Qin Yan was too young, after all. Although she was surprised, she didn't understand the true difficulty involved.
But Cheng Boxuan knew perfectly well.
In the world of Barbaric Beasts, the law of the jungle—the naked truth that the strong reign supre—was absolute.
If Yang Xiao's strength wasn't greater than the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast's, it would absolutely never have submitted.
And yet, it had submitted.
'Doesn't that an Yang Xiao's strength surpasses that of the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast?'
'How is that possible?'
'Even an expert at the Middle Stage of Martial Grandmaster wouldn't dare claim a guaranteed victory over a Tier Four Low Grade Barbaric Beast!'
Yang Xiao paid little mind to their thoughts.
Although he hadn't intended to ta this Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast at first, now that he had, it was his.
Yang Xiao naturally intended to make so improvents.
'Compared to the cultivation of the Human Race, Barbaric Beasts rely more heavily on their bloodline. This Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast's bloodline, while inferior to that of an Earth Fire Qilin Beast, is still extraordinary. It holds a trace of the Golden-Winged Old Ghost's bloodline. My fla can purify it and help it advance.'
Yang Xiao imdiately put his thought into action.
Controlling the ball of orange fla inside the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast, Yang Xiao quickly began to circulate it through the massive beast's body.
This made the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast feel both afraid and strangely comfortable.
Soon, Yang Xiao found the trace of Golden-winged Roc bloodline within its body and purified it with his Heaven and Earth Origin Fire.
In an instant, the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast underwent a transformation.
Originally, its body was primarily purple, with only a few hints of gold.
But after Yang Xiao enhanced its Golden-winged Roc bloodline, its entire body changed.
A great deal of the purple faded away.
The golden light intensified dramatically.
Though its body was still predominantly purple,
both its aura and its presence had beco several degrees more formidable.
THUMP!
The massive Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast's entire body shuddered. It had actually advanced a tier.
From a Tier Four Low Grade Barbaric Beast, it had jumped directly to a Tier Four Middle-grade Barbaric Beast.
Although its aura was still unstable,
there was a fundantal difference from before.
"SCREEE!"
The Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast imdiately let out a joyous cry.
If it had felt an instinctive fear toward Yang Xiao before,
and had been forced to submit due to the threat of that fla in its mind,
then after this experience, its submission to Yang Xiao was truly genuine.
A submission from the heart.
It now regarded Yang Xiao as its master.
At the sa ti, because of its advancent, the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast's physique also changed.
It beca slightly smaller,
but it was now even more fearso.
Simultaneously, the feathers on its body also transford.
Before, its feathers had cloud-like patterns.
That was why it was called a Cloud Peng.
But now, even more complex patterns had appeared.
These patterns were quite wondrous.
They bore a striking resemblance to the Profound Feather Divine Technique Yang Xiao cultivated, sharing a complentary and synergistic quality. This change piqued Yang Xiao's interest, and he began to study them closely.
As for Cheng Boxuan and Qin Yan,
they couldn't perceive the changes in the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast.
But intimidated by the sudden surge in its ferocious might, they didn't dare move a muscle on its back.
Naturally, they were in no position to disturb Yang Xiao.
Soon, half a day had passed.
The Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast had already flown several thousand miles.
Only then did Yang Xiao awaken from his contemplation.
'Not bad. Observing these patterns has indeed advanced my Profound Feather Divine Technique. If I could observe more, stronger flying beasts, this Profound Feather Divine Technique might really have a chance of becoming a peerless Great Divine Technique.'
Yang Xiao had gained a great deal.
He was very satisfied.
Now, when he used the Profound Feather Divine Technique, while his wingspan remained forty zhang, a single flap no longer covered forty li, but around forty-eight li.
An increase of twenty percent in speed.
Not only that, but more importantly, the patterns improved his defenses.
Yang Xiao's previous Profound Feather Divine Technique had focused more on flying speed; its defensive capabilities were lackluster.
At Yang Xiao's current realm, it could at most block a full-power strike from a Martial Grandmaster First Layer.
But now, it could block a full-power strike from a Martial Grandmaster Fourth Layer.
Its defensive power had increased by roughly tenfold.
A terrifying improvent.
Having completed his observation, Yang Xiao's aura also faintly rose, seemingly reaching the Innate Third Layer.
This thod of re-cultivating was quite beneficial for his Spiritual Power.
Originally, the gap to the Observing Micro High Level seed like a single step but was actually very far.
But cultivating step by step like this had solidified his Spiritual Power and laid a firr foundation.
If a fortuitous opportunity arose,
he wouldn't necessarily have to wait until he broke through to the Yellow Fla Realm.
However, such opportunities were hard to find.
"Yang Xiao, no, Junior Sect Leader, we're approaching the capital of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom. Should we go down and rest for a while?"
Yang Xiao's attention returned to the present.
The Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast had naturally retracted its ferocious might,
so Cheng Boxuan finally had a chance to speak.
"The capital of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom?"
A profound look entered Yang Xiao's eyes.
He had mories of that place, too.
However, they weren't very pleasant mories.
"That's right. The Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast usually rests in the Celestial Cloud Kingdom's capital on every flight. It's just that, in the past, we'd usually arrive around dusk. It seems quite early today."
Cheng Boxuan was a little puzzled.
But Yang Xiao knew why.
The Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast of before was passive and sluggish.
Its strength and speed were also sowhat inferior to its current state.
Naturally, it used to take almost twice as long to reach the capital of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom.
But now, Yang Xiao had purified its bloodline and helped it advance a tier.
Its base speed had increased significantly.
Plus, he had personally tad it.
Of course it would give its all.
So naturally, it was faster.
"Since it's the old custom, let's go to the capital of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom. It just so happens that this little beast needs to stabilize its realm anyway, to avoid any future flaws."
Having gained so profound insights from the Purple Gold Cloud Peng Beast, Yang Xiao naturally started to care for it a bit more.
He imdiately agreed.
The Cloud Peng spread its wings and flew toward a massive city up ahead.
The capital of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom.
Cloud Heaven City.
