Chapter 433 - Jaguar (1/2)

In front of Alex was a small flying boat that could house preferably only one person at a time, but could fit 3 people if needed. The boat was white in color with a slight purple hue along the outlines.

The design of the boat itself was quite simple.

It was about a meter wide, 2 meters long, and barely half a meter high. It had a small compartment on the front where one could place True Spirit stones inside it to make it run on its own.

The boat was something Alex had gotten after Zexi's death. It was one of the things inside Zexi's storage bag along with everything else he gained.

Being a True rank artifact, Alex couldn't really refine it at all. However, he had noticed that even without refining, the boat flew way faster than if he did normally.

He couldn't imagine how fast the boat would be if he really did manage to refine it once he reached the True realms, however, that would be something he would think about when the time came.

He quickly jumped onto the hovering boat and checked the True spirit stones in the front compartment. Once he made sure the spirit stones had Qi in them, he closed the compartment and sat on the boat.

The boat didn't have any control equipment and entirely relied on the user to control it through their Qi.

Alex put his Qi into the compartment and suddenly, the boat activated and started moving forward.

The boat did nothing but go forward, and since the boat was angled a little off from the north, it started speeding towards there.

”Not there,” Alex thought as he slightly pushed the front of the boat from the side using his Qi to straighten its path.

The boat was incredibly fast and moved through the air faster than the sect's giant ship or Ma Rong's own flying artifact.

”I guess you really can't argue that a royal has some of the best stuff,” Alex thought. He wouldn't argue if someone came and said that this was a Heaven-grade artifact, even though he knew it was just an earth-grade artifact.

The feeling Alex felt had disappeared by now. But that didn't do anything to make him feel better. In fact, that was the exact same thing that happened last time as well.

The feelings would disappear for a few minutes, then come back up stronger. It would repeat a few times and increase to the point that it would be physically uncomfortable for Alex.

He felt like it was halfway there by now. He flew up the hill and went past another set of the small jungle as he made his way as far north as he could.

Even then, he couldn't get rid of that feeling.

In the veil of the night, he flew for nearly 3 hours when the feeling reached its peak.

By now he was very far away, but that wasn't consoling at all. The beast side had a Saint Beast. If it wanted, it could probably reach him in a third of the time it took him to fly this far away.

He had crossed villages by now, but his fear did not drop in the slightest.

And that was not without reason as he soon felt an enormous aura from many kilometers away. Even at a distance so far away, he could feel the aura of the saint realm.

”Shit! Saint realm is truly terrifying. But… why do I sense two different auras?”

Half an hour earlier.

A massive nearly 3 meters tall and 5 meters long Jaguar flew through the night sky, fully hidden under its darkness.

The black jaguar was flying at incredible speed and headed north while the minor beasts started searching for things to attack mindlessly.

Most of them had all followed behind it. Where ever the Jaguar went, they went as well.

”Just when will these mindless children grow? Just when will the wound upon this land heal?” the beast asked itself as it flew towards Alex's location.

”I already failed the first time when those humans stood in my way.  If I could kill them, I would have already found him by now,” the Jaguar lamented.

”And the second time did not bore any fruit as I couldn't locate him, to begin with.”

”This time, however, I will make sure to get him and return back,” the Jaguar said.

As one of the faster types of beasts, it wouldn't even take half an hour to reach where Alex had already gone to.

It flew without stops for the next half an hour and finally felt that the target was within grasp. It was excited.

”Friend, would you mind stopping for a little bit,” A voice suddenly appeared in the Jaguar's mind.

”Yes, friend. We would like it if you could stop for a little chat,” Another voice said.

The Jaguar suddenly stopped. The voices had just spoken inside his head, which meant the speaker must have a Saint Realm cultivation base.

The Jaguar suddenly sent out its own Spiritual sense and noticed the two people about a few kilometers away.

”It's you two. How are you two here?” the Jaguar asked.

”Oh, how can we say? I guess we can call it fate,” one of the people said.

”Fate… hah! What utter crap,” the Jaguar said and immediately sent his spiritual sense all over himself.

”I see… I didn't realize that there was an imprint on me. My age must be catching up to me. I guess I will need to hurry up or I won't get a proper chance to enter the Immortal Realm,” the Jaguar said to itself.
