BXBX NOVEL Chapter 152 - Crazed Beast?
Though Lin Wu knew that upgrading it was not a good idea here. Instead, he was focusing on increasing his spirit sense range now. In the past two days, he had managed to increase it to about 180 meters. This had also taken up a bit of the spirit qi he had obtained and thus increased his consumption.
Shirong was also half way to the peak stage of the Core condensation realm. Since he was already a pseudo nascent soul realm cultivator before he would install reach it when he gets to the peak as he already had the understanding and comprehension.
"A couple of more days here should be enough to get back to my previous level… or I can try to see if I can double temper the spirit qi and use that technique… never thought I would ever get the chance to even try it," Shirong muttered to himself.
Lin Wu\'s interest was peaked as soon as he heard Shirong talk about a new technique and was wondering what it.
\'If it is something that is surpassing even for Shirong, then it must be something good.\' Lin Wu thought.
Just as he was thinking of this, the communication link he had with the Mole beast was activated.
"Master," The Mole beast spoke.
"Oh right, it\'s time for the daily report. What do you have for me today?" Lin Wu replied.
He had been getting updates from his two servants once every day, though it had mostly been about their journey. The beetle beast had already reached the area where her ancestor lived and had been taken into their ranks rather quickly.
From her tone of voice, Lin Wu could tell that her kin was quite happy about her becoming a core condensation realm spirit beast. Now only the mole beast was left to do his task. He was supposed to gather the information about the Olive Viper king, and he was still far from his area.
"Master, it going to take me longer to reach the territory of the Olive viper king." The Mole beast reported.
"Oh, why?" Lin Wu questioned.
"There has been an upheaval in the forest since one of the five rulers of the forest has left his position." The mole beast answered.
"Oh, you mean the Silver Beak Sky Soar eagle? Yeah, I saw him flying in the sky and going towards the west." Lin Wu replied.
"YOU SAW HIM, MASTER?!" The mole beast said with shock.
"Why the shock? I saw him when I asked about him last time." Lin Wu said in a calm tone.
"Master, he massacred all of his subordinates and ate them. He also killed the beasts in the territories surrounding his and is now wanted by all the four rulers. He has killed beast belonging to each of their territories." The mole beast explained.
Now it was Lin Wu\'s turn to be shocked, as he had not expected something like this to have happened.
"Why would it do something like this?" Lin Wu questioned.
"No one knows. All the beasts in the fifth ring and sixth ring are disturbed about this. Some say that it finally went crazy with age and attacked everyone while some think he was annoyed with everyone here and decided to leave the forest in a domineering manner." The mole beast replied.
"I… doubt it is the last option… anyway. Anything else?" Lin Wu further asked.
"Nothing except that the beast conflicts will increase from now. A lot of new territories have been freed and the beasts will battle to take over them. If master is coming to this area, he needs to be careful." The mole beast replied.
"Alright, that will be fine." Lin Wu said and stopped the communication link.
"Did it really go crazy? Or is there some other reason behind his actions? Hmm… wait. He didn\'t seem all that agitated when it flew by us. Then what could it be?" Lin Wu wondered.
~Roar~
Suddenly the roar of a beast could be heard from the distance and Shirong became alert. He spread his spirit sense and scouted the area ahead carefully. Lin Wu on the other hand looked at his map and knew that there was going to be a beast nearby.
This was merely the border of the fifth ring, and it was time for the beasts to increase in number.
"A mid stage core condensation realm spirit beast… good. This will be a good practice." Shirong muttered after determining the cultivation base of the beast.
He went after it and saw the beast prowling through the trees. There were a few qi refining realm beasts in front of it, that it was probably hunting. Lin Wu took a look at the beast and found it to look like a mix between a horse and an armadillo.
It had claws instead of giving and also had armored plates on its body. But from the shape and size of its body, it looked like a horse and Lin Wu was intrigued but it. The head of the beast was like that of a thin horse and its neck was much more flexible than that of a horse\'s.
"What does this beast do? Does it run like a horse or dig like an armadillo and what the hell was that weird roar?" Lin Wu had a lot of questions about this one.
He even found the beast to be weirder than himself.
