Chapter 943: Chapter 941: Thief?
Regarding this special situation, the Ancestral Court issued a strict order, commanding that all clansmen of any identity with a Cultivation base below the Seventh Stage must evacuate the Ancestral Court. They could camp outside and watch the competition for the martial contest through the projection magic of the Crystal Clan.
This decree took three days to fully implement, indeed, it greatly alleviated the previously crowded conditions inside the Ancestral Court. However, even then, the number of people in the Ancestral Court was still much more than usual, it was still bustling. The security patrols of the Ancestral Court began to walk the streets, strictly punishing any discovered breaches of regulations and conflicts, no matter the rank of those involved.
Near the edge of the Ancestral Court, inside a small tavern, two figures clad in large cloaks were sitting opposite each other.
On the table were several small dishes, along with two mugs of beer.
The one sitting on the outside had an extremely robust build; even just sitting there, he exuded an aura akin to a mountain range, like a volcano that could erupt at any moment.
On the other side was a more normally proportioned figure, just in human form.
“The Golden Lion Clan has really gone all out on you this time. To enable you to achieve a breakthrough in such a short time and equip you to the teeth, they’re very insightful!” the man sitting inside said softly.
The robust man chuckled and replied, “What choice did they have? Without a First level Bloodline, they would never get their head above water. The Golden Lion Clan has always considered themselves the kings of all beasts, but how many generations have passed without them producing an Emperor? Even the Mammoth Tribe has one, so wouldn’t they be anxious? Although the White Tiger Great Demon King from the Tiger Demon Clan doesn’t pay much attention to them, he is still an Emperor. The internal pressure within the Lion Demon Clan is enormous. Moreover, I had promised them that I would challenge that guy for them. This is a good opportunity. Are you going to participate too? Though, your identity is a bit sensitive. Do you need me to find a way around it for you through the Lion Demon Clan?”
Tang San adjusted the hood on his head, took a sip of the beer in front of him, smiled, and shook his head, “No need, I’m already prepared. I have a way. You’ll see me in the competition. Hopefully, we don’t meet too early.”
The robust man was none other than the current patriarch of the Lion Tiger Tribe, also the Big Cat who had been allied with and accepted by the Golden Lion Clan.
Ever since the elite competition of the Ancestral Court ended, the Big Cat had been taken by the Golden Lion Clan and had been in seclusion until recently. During this period, the Golden Lion Clan had used almost all the accumulated resources on him. The Lion Tiger Change is of the First level Bloodline, which is precisely what the Lion Demon Clan is lacking, as Big Cat himself said, the Golden Lion Clan is desperate for an Emperor.
With three Emperor vacancies appearing in the Ancestral Court, it was an unprecedented chance. Every race was prepared to go all out. Naturally, the Big Cat was the most hopeful candidate for the Lion Demon Clan. After returning to the Ancestral Court, he had attempted to contact using the communicator Tang San had left him, assuming that Tang San wouldn’t miss such a grand event, especially since the main character of the martial contest had become the Jiali City Lord, Pretty Girl.
Old friends reunited, naturally brimming with joy. Tang San instantly noticed the changes in Big Cat; his improvement could truly be described as a qualitative leap. He advanced successively from the peak of Ninth Stage to Rank 10 and Rank 11. This transformation was truly immense. Big Cat, who had mastered the Killing God Field, had now completely concealed his Killing Intent, but the concealed edge was even more terrifying. His spiritual power might not be as strong as Tang San’s, but it was extremely robust, much like his personality.
“That’s good. I really hope not to encounter you! I can no longer gauge your current strength. I thought my improvement was fast, but why does it feel like the gap between us is growing even larger?” Big Cat looked at Tang San helplessly, seeing him as an insurmountable mountain.
Tang San smiled and said, “Don’t say that, your foundations will definitely make you an Emperor in the future. Not just because of your talent, but because of your steadfast will. Here, take this.” While speaking, Tang San handed over the storage ring he had originally owned to Big Cat.
Big Cat accepted the ring, curiously asking, “What’s inside?”
Tang San replied, “There will be a grand auction held soon. This is some money for you to pick something suitable for yourself.”
Big Cat promptly placed the ring on the table, saying, “I can’t take this. The Lion Beast Clan has already prepared enough money for me, and that should suffice. Besides, you also need money! There won’t be a shortage of divine tools at the super auction; you should pick some too, so you can be more confident. This is for Pretty Girl’s martial contest for marriage, you absolutely must win. Your pressure is much greater than mine. For me, aside from possibly confronting that one person, the rest isn’t that important. I am aware of my limitations; competing for the Emperor position with my current cultivation base is probably not possible. After all, all the hidden powerhouses from the strong races will show up.”
Tang San smiled, saying, “Take it. I have more. Don’t you know me? I know my limits. Besides, since it’s a competition, naturally we should go all out. This super auction is held at such a time, I reckon everything will be marked up significantly, it’s better to be over-prepared.”
Big Cat was still hesitant when suddenly, a faint gray shadow quietly flickered, almost clinging to the table as it swept towards the storage ring.
Tang San looked at the lightning-fast gray shadow with interest, but Big Cat had already reacted, shouting, “How audacious!”
A fierce bloodline aura burst forth from Big Cat almost instantly; the dazzling white light that erupted made the small shop brightly lit. What’s more terrifying was within that dazzling light, there was an extreme chill, not just freezing the body but even a deathly aura that seemed able to solidify divine consciousness. It was the Killing God Field!
Although it wasn’t a direct release of the domain, it was a type of domain application.
The few customers in the shop couldn’t help but feel an icy chill, their faces pale, unable to move.
In a dark corner, a gray figure also revealed itself but it was still able to move and turned to run.
Big Cat’s right hand struck out, and the suddenly erupting fierce wind, filled with unmatched sharpness, instantly blocked all escape routes for the figure. The gray figure was initially sluggish and was instantly cut into several pieces within the sharp claw wind. However, bizarrely, the gray figure quickly reassembled and then abruptly accelerated towards the outside.
“Shadow Demon?” Big Cat scoffed coldly as all the white light suddenly converged, but the cold aura sharply compressed, focusing solely on the Shadow Demon, which now appeared frozen in mid-air.
The Killing God Field truly activated!
The strongest aspect of a Shadow Demon lies in its near immunity to most physical attacks and energy attacks. Although their own attack power was not strong, they excelled in hiding and fleeing. Thus, nearly all Shadow Demons were expert thieves, a race that utterly exasperated all others.
Unfortunately, it encountered Tang San and Big Cat today. The weakness of a Shadow Demon lies in their fragile Spiritual Power, even for those at the King level.
And the Killing God Field itself is a powerful domain of spiritual attack, enhancing oneself, weakening the opponent. Big Cat, being a rank 11 Great Demon King level creature, when he activated the Killing God Field to lock onto the opponent, naturally, the Shadow Demon had no chance to escape.
