Chapter 599! (2/2)

Qing Shui could not help but feel slightly apprehensive when he heard that a Thunderous Beast may be around. These things were all of legends, but since the golden lotus had appeared, it wouldn’t be surprising if a Thunderous Beast also made an appearance.

In history books, it is recorded that Thunderous Beasts are demonic beasts which are at least of the Martial Saint stage or above. They have strong survival skills and they were the strongest within all creatures of water, land and sky. The rumored creatures were purple and resembled cows. They have three sharp horns, and a fully mature Thunderous Beast can reach up to one hundred meters in height and capable of generating a large electrical attack.

This was all the information that Qing Shui had obtained regarding the Thunderous Beast. They were all high level Martial Saints. High level Martial Saints are those that are at Grade seven or above. If a Peak Grade Martial Saint beast showed up, it could definitely kill Qing Shui in a second.

Even if a demonic beast is of the same grade as a human, the human couldn’t compare to them. It requires about three to five martial artists of the same grade to have a chance at winning against the demonic beast.

“Look, there are no Thunderous Beasts around. It is such a huge demonic beast, there aren’t any places for it to hide around this area. It is just a legend, they don’t exist.” Qing Shui said feeling quite lucky.

Di Chen looked around, she especially paid attention to the water. A Thunderous Beast could travel in the water, on land or in the skies. If they could not spot it on land or in the sky, the higher the likeliness that it was hiding in the water.

“Qing Shui, let’s wait for a bit. Let’s see if there really is no Thunderous Beast safeguarding that flower. “ Di Chen still felt that it was a slightly inappropriate.

“Sister Chen, I feel that there is no Thunderous Beast around to guard that flower. If there really was such a guardian beast, there wouldn’t be any other demonic beast within a hundred mile radius. We camped overnight so close to this area and didn’t meet with any mishap…”

Qing Shui words caused Di Chen to think deeply. After thinking for some time, she said to Qing Shui, “If there was no demonic beast guarding it, then this Golden Buddha Aura Lotus wouldn’t have been able to grow so safely here.”

Qing Shui agreed, but with a quick thought, he said to Di Chen, “There could be a demonic beast guarding it, one that is capable enough to protect the lotus, but it still may not be strong. Besides, there are only a few demonic beasts within one kilometer of either side of the river, but it’s unable to intimidate any creatures that are slightly further. I don’t think that it can defeat us. Otherwise, it would’ve already appeared.”

Qing Shui’s eyes flashed for a moment. Suddenly, he had his sight on the lotus, and a trace of doubt and shock appeared in his eyes.

“It’s within that Golden Buddha Aura Lotus.” Qing Shui smiled and told Di Chen.

“Let’s force it out?” Di Chen said after thinking for a bit.

“How?”

“What do you think it cares most about?” Di Chen laughed as she looked at Qing Shui.

“The Golden Buddha Aura Lotus!”

“Yes. Let your red bird use a fire attack on the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus. We should be able to force it out using this method.” Di Chen looked up at Qing Shui Fire Bird, which was in the sky.

“What if the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus accidently gets damaged by the fire?”

“Golden Buddha Aura Lotus can’t get damaged that easily. I think it’s difficult to even phase the plant without the strength of a Martial Saint.” Di Chen replied with a smile.

Caw!

His Fire Bird shot out a large big fireball at the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus. Qing Shui commanded the Fire Bird to aim a little off target on purpose.

Boom!

Chi Chi…

The Golden Buddha Aura Lotus didn’t receive any damage at all, but they weren’t able to manage forcing the demonic beast out either!

Qing Shui and Di Chen looked at each other. Qing Shui sky-walked over, Qing Shui could see what was inside the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus through a small crack between the petals while standing in mid air. He was shocked!

Within the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus, there was a small purple creature that was one meter long. The three sharp horns on its head still seemed soft, and its body was a lustrous purple. Its eyes were tightly shut, it was a small calf just sound asleep.

It was a baby Thunderous Beast.

For that second, Qing Shui was elated. This was a priceless treasure. A baby Thunderous Beast that hasn’t even opened its eyes. Such a thing was of little value to others, a Thunderous Beast required one thousand years to grow up, who had such luxury of time?

Thunderous Beasts appeared with Golden Buddha Aura Lotuses and couldn’t leave it. It had to stay near the flower most of the time. They would only leave the flower for a maximum of three days.

Qing Shui figured out what had happened. Shortly after the baby Thunderous Beast was born, the old Thunderous Beast disappeared, perhaps due to some accident. Otherwise, this little thing wouldn’t be able to stay inside the Golden Buddha Aura Lotus without being swallowed or killed by other demonic beasts.

After a thousand years, this small creature will become a powerful demonic beast. But how many people could wait for a thousand years? Qing Shui only needed five years…
