Chapter 243: Dark Kirin (2/2)
“Sigh! I wonder when Chen Feng will come back. The vile energy there is just too thick. I fear it will be too dangerous for him.”
At that moment, Tie Changkong and Shangguan Yun had retreated to a less dangerous spot to wait. However, it was clear that the two of them were worried for Chen Feng.
“For Chen Feng to be doing something like this, he should have a certain level of confidence. Let’s just wait here for a while.”
As Tie Changkong and Shangguan Yun were feeling concerned, Chen Feng had stopped moving forward. He believed he had found the source.
“The sound of flowing water,” said Chen Feng after listening for a bit.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Feng walked towards the sound of flowing water. The surrounding black smoke there appeared to be entirely composed of the vile energy. Even for Chen Feng, he could feel great deal of pressure there. Despite possessing several Prized artefacts to protect himself with, he would still need to constantly expend primary energy to resist the surrounding vile energy. Chen Feng no longer dared to use his flesh to experience the power of the surrounding vile energy.
It was a fountain the size of a bowl. The fountain water was as black as ink and it churned while constantly spraying upwards in strange-looking shapes.
It’s a fountain. Its water is surprisingly black. Could this be the source of the vile energy? All the black clouds, spreading all around for who knows how many kilometres, all of them came about due to this fountain? Chen Feng was in disbelief.
No, no. That’s not it. Chen Feng immediately realized that the black clouds outside had nothing to do with the fountain.
That was because he had looked up and beheld an unbelievable sight. When he confirmed what he was seeing, his heart palpitated chaotically. Even his rate of breathing had become somewhat ragged.
A colossal beast the size of a small mountain was lying down before Chen Feng. As it breathed, streams of black air surged out from its mouth. Every breath it released was capable of shooting up to hundreds of metres out before billowing even further away.
Siii! So, the black clouds out there are all due to this colossal creature’s act of breathing? How outrageous!
In the beginning, Chen Feng felt worried, fearing that the colossal beast would wake up and devour him. However, after staying immobile for a while, Chen Feng noted that the colossal beast was not moving at all. There was no movement from its tightly closed eyes at all. Only then did Chen Feng slowly relaxed. He began examining the colossal beast’s shape.
It looks a little like the legendary kirin. However, it is black in colour, Chen Feng whispered to himself.
A dragon’s head, a deer’s body and dragon tail and scales. It is indeed similar to the description of kirins. However, I have never heard of a black-coloured kirin. Besides, I don’t think kirins are yao beasts. Chen Feng carefully examined the colossal existence before him.
“Kirins are also yao beasts. However, you humans simply deified them into saintly and divine creatures.” Suddenly, Tower’s voice flowed into Chen Feng’s mind.
Hearing Tower’s voice, Chen Feng quickly breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly asked, “In other words, this thing in front of me is really a kirin?”
“Yes, it is a kirin. Additionally, it is the Dark Kirin, the most mysterious amongst the kirin race,” said Tower.
“Dark Kirin. That does sound better than Black Kirin,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Kid, hurry up and collect the Vile Fountain Water and leave. Count yourself lucky. This Dark Kirin hasn’t woken up yet, otherwise, you will die even with the cultivation base of a Human Immortal,” Tower said.
“What? This Dark Kirin is so incredible?” Chen Feng exclaimed.
“Even the weakest kirins possess the strength of a Great Yao from birth. Some of the more powerful kirins possess the strength of a Yao King at birth. The Dark Kirin is even stronger. This one before you seem like an adult. Strange, strange. To be able to encounter a Dark Kirin here. Kid, you are really lucky,” Tower said.
“What? It is even more powerful than a Human Immortal? If so, collecting the fountain that is right before it is suicide, no?” said Chen Feng carefully as he regarded the fountain .
“Hey! Just collect less of it then. Why would someone at that level care about a small fry like you?” Tower said amusedly.
Sou!
A stream of fountain water flowed out from the fountain and into the Longevity Tower.
“So little?” Chen Feng felt speechless. That was just the equivalent of a small bottle.
“This is not little. What do you think this is? This is Vile Fountain Water. Human Immortals would fight each other for just one drop of this water. Alright, don’t talk anymore. Hurry up and leave.” Tower chuckled. Truth be told, Tower had wanted to collect the entire fountain. However, he had yet to fully recover and was no match for the Dark Kirin. If the Longevity Tower had recovered its power, Tower would have wanted not only the fountain but also the Dark Kirin.
…
“It’s been so long now. Chen Feng should have come out by now.” Tie Changkong grew impatient.
“He hasn’t gone in for that long. Let’s wait a little longer.”
“The vile energy is so strong that I can’t even defend against it. I don’t even know how Chen Feng could do it. He is just at level 4 of the Concealed stage, but his strength is surprisingly above us. Where should I go put my face in the future?” Tie Changkong felt his emotions stirring. No matter what, he felt himself to be quite talented in the world of cultivation. That was especially true amongst those of the same age. He had quite the capital to feel proud of himself. However, since meeting Chen Feng, his ego had taken a huge hit.
There was no need to ask about their age. He was far older than Chen Feng. Even his cultivation base was several levels higher than Chen Feng. Not to mention, he had also condensed out his own domain power. However, if he were to fight Chen Feng head on, Tie Changkong knew that he would certainly lose.
1 The human equivalent for Yao King stage is Human Immortal stage.
