The Unique Guardian Beast Master in Cultivation World

Chapter 480: Chapter 289: Bloodline Promotion, Demon King Siege_2

She felt as if she was trapped in the jaws of a primordial beast, which could chew her into powder with but a gentle bite. Cold sweat seared down her smooth and pale back.

Mew~

Suddenly, the sound of a cat’s meow echoed around, and all murderous auras vanished just like that. The sense of looming danger, as if being on the cusp of being chewed and swallowed by a beast, disappeared too.

In shock, the cold-hearted female cultivator surveyed the surroundings. From the corner of her eyes, she thought she saw the silhouette of a small black cat. But when she turned to look, there was nothing – only the harsh stone walls and deep, dark shadows.

“What was that?”

The female cultivator no longer had the mood to cultivate. She quickly stood up and began inspecting the room inch by inch, especially the place where she thought she saw the cat. But she found nothing. Despite this, she refused to believe that what she saw was an illusion. It was far too real, how could it be an illusion?

“What just happened?”

The female cultivator was completely baffled and restless. Little did she know, the unnerving encounter was merely a small cat throwing a fit. The reason she was still alive was because another member of the Human Race had irritated this beast, making it lose its appetite.

That damned Human Race, dare to treat the noble white tiger bloodline so poorly. Once I break free, I’ll make you my pet, commanding you to do my bidding and clean up my feces and urine.

A dense resentment that was almost tangible roiled from the other end of the Soul Contract. Feng Qing’an sensed this resentment from the small cat and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Of course, he could laugh heartily not just because the creature was amusing to battle. It was mainly because of Black Mountain, on the verge of crossing the heavenly tribulation.

Black Mountain’s first heavenly tribulation went exactly as anticipated. Even after a bloody battle, his demon body was not in its optimal state. However, even without the aid of his divine power, he successfully passed without any surprises or cachets.

With the flow of magic power at will, without worrying about depletion, potent and extravagant, if it failed even with such a reliance, it’s either too wasteful or the downfall from heaven might not be a heavenly tribulation, but a heavenly penalty, with no intention of leaving any survivors.

Awo~

From the tribulation cloud vortex center, the Thunder Wolf radiating divine power and standing on ghost fire had an increasingly massive figure. It even began to absorb the heavenly tribulation’s power to temper and nurture their own Yuan Qi, treating this lightning power as nourishment to grow.

A thunderball that looked like a pill began to form in its big, gaping mouth. The terrifying power within it nurtured the potential to shatter the surrounding void, causing the space around the thunderball to crack, revealing spider web-like fractures.

“Hm?”

Always attentive to Black Mountain, Feng Qing’an immediately detected something abnormal. He knew Black Mountain’s body even better than Black Mountain himself. So, the moment any changes occurred, Feng Qing’an was aware.

Zzzap~

Dazzling lightning pierced through the sky. The thunderball that had the power to collapse the void was swallowed by Black Mountain in just one gulp. The instant the thunderball fell into his stomach, hundreds of bolts of lightning exploded.

Black Mountain’s body was suddenly illuminated by the lightning, becoming translucent and somewhat illusory. His azure eyes flashed with lightning arcs, and they even took on a hint of purple.

Awo~

Countless lightning arcs erupted from Black Mountain’s body. The moment they hit the ground, they transformed into wolves of different sizes. As soon as these lightning wolves took form, they howled towards the sky, creating a tide of echoing howls.

“It is indeed you!”

In that instant, all of Feng Qing’an’s attention was drawn to Black Mountain. He had seen Black Mountain used a similar divine power before, but back then, it was the Soul-devouring Ghost Fire, yet now it was lightning bolts.

The appearance of these lightning wolves signified one thing – even without the support of his special physique, the Conquering Heavenly God, Black Mountain could also utilize the power of thunder and lightning, albeit much weaker.

Something had been carved into Black Mountain’s origin that had caused its Ghost Wolf bloodline to undergo a certain mutation, or perhaps, a transformation.

It was no longer just a Ghost Wolf. Without a clear direction, without the guidance of its kindred Demon Monarchs, it charted its own path. Under the thunder tribulation, it completed the crucial metamorphosis.

“Black Mountain!”

[First Soul Contract: Black Mountain]

[Species: ThunderWolf]

[Attributes: Demon, Beast, Fire, Thunder]

[Potential Grade: Emperor·Lower-class]

[Combat Grade: Monarch·Lower-class]

“You are a Demon Monarch now!”

The thunder in the sky continued to fall, but Black Mountain’s demon power had crossed the dividing line between Big Demons and Demon Monarchs. Its breath quickly increased rapidly after breaking through to the critical point, and its form transformation was even more thorough, becoming a monstrous demon body as magnificent as a mountain.

This was not an illusion. It was simply standing there, and the ground began to rumble and sink. Every one of its casual movements could pose a great threat to everything around it, even its simple breath could whip up a tempestuous wind.

Howl~

Having fulfilled Feng Qing’an’s expectations when he first adopted it, Black Mountain felt very calm, not overly excited but extremely cool in fighting against the heavenly tribulation.

Only in a few short years, it had reached a realm that countless demonic creatures, even by spending a lifetime, could only look up to but never reach. Even the Demon Monarchs would have to spend a hundred times longer to barely step into this realm.

Black Mountain knew it was lucky to have its present master. Still, even so, it didn’t feel undeserving of being a Demon Monarch because a significant part of its current strength was gained from its own bloody battles.

Even among Demon Monarchs, there probably aren’t many who would engage in such frequent bloody battles unless they have an extraordinarily unique bloodline. The majority of the Demon Clan still craved longevity, ensuring survival is the first instinct of Spirits.

Baa—

The demon cloud was tumbling, and the sky was filled with a stench. Just as Black Mountain’s heavenly tribulation was about to end, the aura of a Demon Monarch suddenly appeared at the edge of the tribulation cloud. Soon followed by the second, the third… in just a blink of an eye, five Demon Monarchs had surrounded Black Mountain, which was undergoing the tribulation.

This was in the era where the Human Race declined, and the Demon World flourished. Originally hidden demons began to reveal themselves, slaughtering the Human Race in droves, collecting blood nourishment and soul power, enhancing their demon power.

Therefore, the number of Demon Monarchs attracted by the aura released by Black Mountain’s triggering of the heavenly tribulation, although somewhat exaggerated, was normal. Some of these Demon Monarchs might have hurried over from other places to participate in this gluttonous feast.

However, the reason why demons chose to target the Human Race is that the humans of this area had no divine protection and were easier to bully. They could be exploited at will, with low risks and high rewards.

What they needed was nourishment that could enhance their demon power and break through their realms, which could also be obtained from other demons. It’s just that hunting other demons is too risky.

However, now, a kindred that has just passed the heavenly tribulation and became a Demon Monarch appears before them. Although it still carries risks, compared to the potential rewards, this risk is worth it. It’s a known fact in any cultivation system that any cultivator would be at their weakest right after passing through heavenly tribulation.

As the last heavenly tribulation fell, the sky and the earth instantly turned white. After a long while, the thunder light dimmed, but the thunder’s rumbling sound was still echoing around. However, the tribulation cloud in the sky began to dissipate, and five spirals of mighty demon qi appeared in Black Mountain’s perception.

Moo—

A massive black bull’s skull appeared, its ferocious demon qi pulsated with its breath. It looked at the body scorched black from the thunder strike, yet it held the posture of a righteous big brother.

“You scrubs, you’re really not giving the young ones a way. Young one, don’t be afraid, hide behind me, I’ll protect you, and they won’t dare to harm you.”
