Chapter 747: Capturing the Fire Scaled Beast
Huang Xiaolong concealed his presence as he flew upward along the mountain until he arrived above a cliff. He heaved in relief after determining that no demonic beasts were chasing behind him.
He took out the Luminous Wings Flying Serpent from his Asura Ring and began soul-scouring it. When he finished, Huang Xiaolong’s eyes brightened with excitement.
From this Luminous Wings Flying Serpent’s memories, he finally found the location of the Fire Scaled Beast’s cave.
However, the shocking news was, there wasn't only one Fire Scaled Beast but two. Actually, it was a pair of male and female!
More importantly, both demonic beasts’ strength was at the perfection stage late-Tenth Order God Realm!
Unlike what Wan Long said, between mid to late-Tenth Order God Realm. Huang Xiaolong’s gaze grew serious after his delight and excitement passed.
Without a doubt, capturing two perfection stage late-Tenth Order God Realm Fire Scaled Beasts was harder than defeating Wan Long.
On top of that, Huang Xiaolong confirmed from the Luminous Wings Flying Serpent’s memories that there indeed were Highgod Realm demonic beasts living on the Firecloud Mountain; not one, but three!
They were three Flaming Golden-Claw Great Pengs with ancient fierce beast bloodline.
The Flaming Golden-Claw Great Pengs’ greatest advantage was their amazing speed. Not to mention their claws that could crush almost anything, or their quick and sharp attacks. Huang Xiaolong wasn’t very confident in being able to kill one, what more three Flaming Golden-Claw Great Pengs.
Against three Flaming Golden-Claw Great Pengs, Huang Xiaolong could only hide and run.
Then again, he was unwilling to leave just like this, not when he finally found the Fire Scaled Beasts’ cave. If he could obtain both Fire Scale Beasts’ cores, Huang Xiaolong could significantly increase his soul clarity.
Therefore, despite knowing that there were three Highgod Realm Flaming Golden-Claw Great Pengs up on the Firecloud Mountain’s peak, Huang Xiaolong was determined to head to the Fire Scale Cave.
Half an hour later, Huang Xiaolong was standing in front of the Fire Scale Cave close to the peak. The cave opening was wide and about three to four meters tall, yet hidden out of sight with tall weeds obscuring it. Moreover, a concealing formation was arranged around the entrance, making it harder for anyone to discover the cave entrance.
Huang Xiaolong easily undid the concealing formation around the entrance, disappearing into the cave in a flicker.
The environment inside the Fire Scale Cave was sweltering hot and dry. Weaved between the dry hotness were scarlet spheres of energy that differed from the Fire World’s energy. Those scarlet spheres emitted a soft golden glow.
From those scarlet spheres, Huang Xiaolong detected a certain scent that was similar to sandalwood, thus it wasn’t repulsive. This was probably the Fire Scaled Beast’s unique scent.
Huang Xiaolong carefully spread his divine sense deep into the cave while concealing his own presence as he flew in at a slow pace.
The cave tunnel gradually led to a bigger space the deeper Huang Xiaolong went, and at the same time, the cave’s temperature grew hotter.
At one point, Huang Xiaolong had the feeling that he was inside a high-temperature furnace. Just this high temperature was enough to keep away most Seventh Order God Realm cultivators.
After roughly twenty minutes of flying, Huang Xiaolong could hear faint groaning noises not far up ahead, sounding like a tiger yet also similar to a lion’s groan.
Suddenly, the scene before Huang Xiaolong brightened, turning into a large underground space.
The walls of this underground space were like steel, with golden scarlet flames floating on their surface.
At the center of the large underground space was a formation constructed with ancient beast symbols, with two large fire element demonic beasts in the middle of the formation. Their eyes were golden-red like burning embers, as were the scales covering their bodies. They had four powerful legs, and at the corners of their mouths were two long whiskers that looked like dragon whiskers.
This two were the Fire Scaled Beasts that Huang Xiaolong was searching for, but Huang Xiaolong didn’t expect to see these two Fire Scale Beasts cultivating!
