Chapter 345: Chapter 341: Cloud Winged Tiger King

Crack! Crack!

The sound of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub chewing the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk’s corpse awakened the dazed spectators as well as the stunned Hand Extreme Bu Changtian.

"Thunder Hawk! No!"

With his eyes nearly splitting apart with rage, Hand Extreme Bu Changtian instinctively let out a roar and was about to rush toward the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub.

At the opportune moment, Ye Zhen’s figure blocked Bu Changtian’s path.

"Bu Changtian, is this the style of the Phantom Divine Sect? Just now, you prevented me from intervening, saying this was a fight between demon servants, and now, you actually want to seek revenge for the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk?"

"You...."

Being intercepted by Ye Zhen, Bu Changtian immediately felt embarrassed and completely sobered up, his face and eyes filled with sorrow and even the veins on his forehead throbbing.

The Cloud Winged Tiger Cub had played an important role in Ye Zhen’s growth, just as the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk had been instrumental in Bu Changtian’s development!

Perhaps even more indispensable.

Having accompanied Hand Extreme Bu Changtian for over ten years, through life and death, as close as brothers, it was no exaggeration to call it his companion in growth.

But now, it was dead.

Dead right in front of Bu Changtian, a pain only Bu Changtian could comprehend.

Clenching his fists so tightly that his nails pierced into his palms, causing blood to flow without him even realizing it.

Zuo Bin and Tao Hui, who had just interfered with Caiyi, were now utterly shocked; looking at the current situation, their actions seemed as foolish as could be.

Mo Xinsui wore a look of utter disbelief—he could never have imagined that the victor between these two grand demons would end up being the Cloud Winged Tiger.

The Cloud Winged Tiger, having reverted to his original form, was consuming the corpse of the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk at an astonishing rate; in this brief period, it had eaten most of it.

By this time, the furiously angry Hand Extreme Bu Changtian had completely come to his senses.

"Ye Zhen, move aside, I need to retrieve the Thunder Hawk’s body!"

Ye Zhen looked at Hand Extreme Bu Changtian with a distrustful gaze,

"Rest easy, I Bu Changtian keep my word, regardless of the enemy!"

Just as Bu Changtian was speaking, the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub darted forward, leaving behind the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk’s dry, meatless wings and charged towards its enormous head lying on the ground.

Crack!

In two bites, the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub swallowed the not-so-large head of the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk, including the large wind and thunder elemental demon cores inside it.

As the wind and thunder elemental demon cores entered its stomach, they immediately transformed into a raging energy that spread throughout the limbs and bones of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub, from which strange waves suddenly emanated.

Roar!

The Cloud Winged Tiger Cub reared its head and howled, a roar as thunderous as if commanding an army, and amidst the howling, clouds began to gather and swirl above the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub.

The bizarre vibrations emitted from the body of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub intensified progressively.

"Could this be...?"

Mo Xinsui, who had extensive knowledge, shifted his gaze and his expression turned to one of astonishment.

In the crowd, those martial artists who were extremely experienced recognized a hint of what was happening and all displayed expressions of shock.

"What a beast, to encounter such a fortune!"

In the void, the appointed steward of the Void Iron Chain competition from the Black Dragon Ancient Land, Grand Deacon Qingyi, showed an astonished face.

The howling of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub, along with the disturbances it caused, almost alerted all the Soul Sea Realm stewards.

This time, even the heir of the Hua Clan from Tiannan who seemed as if she belonged in a different world, Hua Wushuang, turned for the first time to cast her gaze upon the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub.

While others were stunned and perplexed, as the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub devoured the head of the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk completely, Hand Extreme Bu Changtian immediately lost his composure.

"Damn you beast... you... my Thunder Hawk, you bastard!"

In his roaring, a tremendous surge of Spiritual Power fluctuation rose around Hand Extreme Bu Changtian, as he moved to break through Ye Zhen’s interference and charge towards the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub.

"Get out of my way!"

"In your dreams!"

In an instant, Ye Zhen and Hand Extreme Bu Changtian clashed fiercely in the air.

Whoosh!

Ye Zhen’s Wind Cloud Sword Qi clashed evenly with Hand Extreme Bu Changtian’s Thousand Extremes Palm, causing the pupils of Mo Xinsui, Zuo Bin, Tao Hui, and others to constrict at once.

They were very clear about the strength of Hand Extreme Bu Changtian.

Ye Zhen was able to fight evenly against Hand Extreme Bu Changtian, although it was only for a moment, but it was enough to bring Ye Zhen into their notice.

Instantly, Mo Xinsui, Zuo Bin, Tao Hui, including many powerful spectators, all showed a look of limitless anticipation, hoping that Ye Zhen could exchange a few more moves with Hand Extreme Bu Changtian.

Due to the fame and strength of Hand Extreme Bu Changtian, it was certain that he could make the top ten of the Black Dragon Ranking. Hand Extreme Bu Changtian would undoubtedly be a roadblock for those powerful martial artists trying to break into the top ten of the Black Dragon Ranking.

At this time, the more one could understand about the strength of Hand Extreme Bu Changtian, the better their chances would be during a major battle.

Of course, some people also focused their attention on Ye Zhen.

For instance, several True Disciples of the Sword Origin Sect were staring intensely at Ye Zhen, prepared to analyze his strength.

When they had left, the Sect Master of Sword Origin Sect, Yu Ruhai, had issued a strict order with great rewards: Anyone who could kill Ye Zhen on the spot during the Black Dragon Ranking tournament would immediately enjoy the treatment of an elder and control their own territory.

However, everyone’s expectations had come to nothing with a shout of anger.

"Ye Zhen, how dare you!"

"The decrees of Black Dragon Ancient Land, whoever dares to initiate a private fight within the Black Dragon Ancient Land shall be executed!"

Amidst the shout of anger, the temporary steward of the Black Dragon Ancient Land, Thousand Illusion Eagle King, pounced on Ye Zhen like lightning. In the instant he lunged, the Black Dragon Token dramatically flew out from above Thousand Illusion Eagle King’s head and smacked down on Ye Zhen like a mountain bearing down.

Hiss!

The moment the Black Dragon Token enveloped him, Ye Zhen felt a tightness in his heart, and a sudden inexplicable pressure emerged in his Divine Soul, as if he could not resist at all once that Black Dragon Token struck down.

"You shameless old eagle, to be this despicable is quite something! It’s just personal vengeance, so come on!" Ye Zhen shouted angrily.

"Thousand Illusion Eagle King, with the authority of having presided over more than three sessions of the Black Dragon Ancient Land, I tell you, this Black Dragon Token won’t strike down." Suddenly, Hai Luoshuang, the Tower Master of Stars Tower, appeared behind Thousand Illusion Eagle King.

"This Black Dragon Token is utterly divine. You think it can be used to invert justice for personal gain? By all means, you can try, but if you force it, you will suffer backlash in the future!" Hai Luoshuang crossed the void to stand between Ye Zhen and Thousand Illusion Eagle King, standing with her hands behind her back, utterly unconcerned by Thousand Illusion Eagle King’s attack with the Black Dragon Token.

Thousand Illusion Eagle King’s gaze turned fierce; the Black Dragon Token pressed down like lightning with great initial speed, but the closer it got to Ye Zhen, the slower it became.

When the Black Dragon Token reached three meters above Ye Zhen’s head, even if Thousand Illusion Eagle King strained to make it move further, he could not push the Black Dragon Token even a bit.

"Inverting black and white, public to private use! Thousand Illusion Eagle King, why bother to invite retribution for yourself in the future?" Hai Luoshuang said.

"Retribution my ass, with my strength I rule the world. Who can retribute against me?"

Despite Thousand Illusion Eagle King’s tough words, he could not press the Black Dragon Token down any further.

"Eagle King, step back! The Dragon Spirit bestowed upon us the Black Dragon Token to maintain order and select the talented, and it must not be misused!" Grand Deacon Qingyi, who presided over the Black Dragon Ranking tournament, spoke up.

Only then did Thousand Illusion Eagle King reluctantly retract the Black Dragon Token, retreating with a sullen face. He had wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Ye Zhen, but he had not anticipated that this Black Dragon Token would be so spiritually sentient.

This scene was also witnessed by all the Spirit Transformation Realm martial artists participating in the Black Dragon Ranking contest; the Black Dragon Ancient Land was indeed extraordinary.

Although Thousand Illusion Eagle King had stepped back, the matter was not over yet; Hai Luoshuang, also a temporary steward of the Black Dragon Ancient Land, then set her sights on Hand Extreme Bu Changtian.

"Bu Changtian, you initiated a private battle in the Black Dragon Ancient Land without authorization. Considering it’s your first offense, a minor punishment is given. If it occurs again, you shall be expelled from the Black Dragon Ancient Land,"

"Leave!"

With a light shout, the Black Dragon Token inside Hai Luoshuang suddenly flew out, emitted a dragon roar that intimidated the soul, and struck the back of Hand Extreme Bu Changtian like lightning.

Hand Extreme Bu Changtian let out a scream in response and began to tremble violently as if sieving chaff, losing control of his body and plummeting from the sky.

Bang!

The Hand Extreme Bu Changtian crashed to the ground, his face becoming a bloody mess as if smeared with blooming peach blossoms. After the fall, the trembling of his body visibly slowed down.

In the high skies, both Qing Yii, the Sect Elder from Phantom Divine Sect, and the Thousand Illusion Eagle King had very unsightly expressions. Their disciple had been punished, which was a difficult pill to swallow for their dignity.

However, since the punishment came from the Black Dragon Token, they had no choice but to endure it.

Roar, roar, roar!

On the ground, the howling of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub grew louder and fiercer. In mid-air, the gathering cloud qi slowly formed into a gigantic character ’King’.

As the character ’King’ in the cloud qi took shape, a mountain-like torrent of cloud qi suddenly thundered down from the sky, pouring directly into the body of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub.

The body of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub rapidly swelled, ballooning from fifteen meters long and ten meters high to an enormous size of twenty meters long and twelve meters high within a few breaths.

Not only did its size become incredibly large, but its aura also surged tremendously. The emitting terrifying pressure frightened nearby Spirit Transformation Realm martial artists, making them step back and even hesitate to meet the tiger cub’s gaze.

"Earth Rank... High Grade!" Mo Xinsui was taken aback.

"It has broken through, the cub has finally broken through!" Feeling the change in the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub’s aura, Ye Zhen’s expression erupted with ecstasy.

Having accumulated for such a long period, the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub had finally managed to break through at this critical moment.

Only then did Ye Zhen start to understand why the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub insisted on having a fierce battle with the Wind Winged Thunder Hawk—it must have sensed that it was its chance to break through.

’The fated battle of the cub’?

Suddenly, the phrase once said by Caiyi flashed through Ye Zhen’s mind. Could it be that Caiyi had known all along that this battle would be the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub’s opportunity to break through?

Looking at the furiously surging aura of the Cloud Winged Tiger, and Hand Extreme Bu Changtian, who had just climbed up from the ground with a blood-covered face, clenched his steel teeth so hard that they almost shattered.

"Roar!"

Following the final roar of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub, a brilliant glow flashed on its forehead, and a large ’King’ mark slowly emerged, solidifying on the forehead of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub!

"Cloud Winged Tiger King!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com or leave a monthly vote; your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
