640 Chapter 341: The Power of the Demon King, The Art of Transformation_2
The spiritual beasts were already powerful, and the Demon King was even more so. He seemed to be rather unscrupulous, using incomprehensible methods. The Yuling Mansion was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.
In the end, Yuling Mansion commanded the spiritual beasts to suppress the Demon Clan. However, the Demon King, through unknown means, managed to free a Level 6 spiritual beast that was under control.
Under the sugar-coated words of the Demon King, the Level 6 spiritual beast's eyes were fanatical, betraying Yuling Mansion and bawling its desire to dedicate itself to the revival of the Demon Clan.
Yuling Mansion was truly frightened.
Caught off guard and without a proper response, they had no choice but to negotiate while holding their noses.
At the same time, they dispatched people to hunt down Zhu Xingzheng, the despicable beast trader.
Soon afterward, the collaboration between Zhu Xingzheng, the beast trader, and the beasts to scam people was exposed, and Zhu Xingzheng's bounty was seen all over Qingzhou.
Zhu Xingzheng's complexion turned green, hiding in Heavenly Mausoleum State, not daring to go anywhere; he even dared not return to the All Ages Alliance as he had conned several powerhouses in the Alliance.
He didn't want to con people from the Alliance, but they had been targeted by the Red Cat. Under the threat of the Red Cat's sharp claws, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and proceed.
Now, there was no turning back.
"It's Karma!"
Zhu Xingzheng was filled with grief and despair, he had scammed too many spiritual beasts and ended up getting scammed himself.
At the boundary between Heavenly Mausoleum State and Qingzhou, the Yuling Mansion and the Demon Clan were negotiating. Even the master of Yuling Mansion took it upon himself to conduct the negotiations.
On the Demon Clan's side, the Red Cat was as big as a small mountain, sitting in a giant chair, its paws laid on the armrests, looking down at the Yuling Mansion's powerhouses before it.
To its left was Yu Xiaolong, and on the right was Little Ha.
All three Demon Kings had come out.
Behind the three Demon Kings were Level 6 powerhouses of the Demon Clan.
In the Yuling Mansion camp, Cui Huayu looked at the Demon King, wearing a puzzled expression; why did it seem so familiar?
It appeared to be that giant cat?
"Yuling Mansion, you have treated my Demon Clan with utmost contempt, kidnapping our young demon warriors, an insult of the highest order. Today, you, Yuling Mansion, must give us an explanation."
The daunting demon aura of the Red Cat reverberated, with its formidable voice echoing outwards.
The Master of Yuling Mansion's mouth twitched slightly, always feeling that this fat tiger seemed quite fond of flaunting its power.
"The King of Spiritual Beasts..."
"I am the Great Demon King!"
"Great Demon King, there was some misunderstanding between us, the Yuling Mansion, and your spiritual beasts, the Demon Clan. This misunderstanding was all created by the beast trader..."
"Bullshit! What misunderstanding? That trader is definitely from your Yuling Mansion. Don't try to argue, you must give an explanation!"
The face of the Master of Yuling Mansion darkened.
The negotiation between the Demon Clan and Yuling Mansion was ongoing.
Meanwhile, behind the negotiations, a flying boat was floating above a mountain peak.
"This Red Cat, it's become corrupt!"
Li Xuan sighed.
This cultured tiger had actually learned to trick people.
"Red Cat looks quite mighty."
Yue'er remarked.
"I still prefer the chubby Little Red Cat."
Su Lingxiu mumbled.
As the negotiations continued, the Red Cat's demands grew stronger, initially asking Yuling Mansion to compensate ten thousand strands of divine spiritual medicine.
The Master of Yuling Mansion nearly exploded. Ten thousand strands of divine spiritual medicine, this fat tiger was really audacious!
After a series of bargaining, they reached an agreement. The Red Cat was very satisfied, it was a profitable deal.
As for the revenge from Yuling Mansion, it was of no concern.
Heavenly Mausoleum State was the best barrier; even if Yuling Mansion collaborated with the other Transcendent Spirit Sects, they couldn't annihilate the Demon Clan but would instead suffer heavy losses.
Yuling Mansion brought back the captured elders, while the Red Cat and the others retreated back to Heavenly Mausoleum State.
"Meow!"
After the Red Cat, along with Yu Xiaolong and Little Ha, had arranged the tasks of the Demon Clan, they ran to the flying boat.
As always, Red Cat turned into a chubby cat, rubbing its body against Li Xuan's feet, pleasing its master. It then went to please Su Lingxiu.
By the way, it handed over the spiritual medicine it obtained from Yuling Mansion to Su Lingxiu.
"Red Cat, you're really making something of yourself!"
Su Lingxiu rubbed the chubby head of the Red Cat, her smile blooming like a flower.
"Meow!"
Red Cat looked proud and pleased with itself.
Yu Xiaolong looked around but didn't see Xu Yan, feeling a bit disappointed.
Little Ha too failed to spot Fang Hao. They didn't linger on the flying boat for long and returned to the Demon Clan's sacred temple to handle demon affairs.
The flying boat was drifting all over Heavenly Mausoleum State. Taking this opportunity, Red Cat stayed aboard to please its master and Su Lingxiu, while also replenishing its consumed spiritual medicine.
"There's still a lot of room to improve your demon technique, like the Divine Skills of the Demon Clan, you should contemplate more on them," said Li Xuan as he lightly tapped Red Cat's head with the Jade Ruyi.
Red Cat nodded!
"You're already ahead of other spirit beasts. You can set the pace, and you've chosen to pursue the demon martial arts. Since you're determined to establish the Demon Clan, why not contemplate transformation?"
Li Xuan raised his hand, conveying the secret transformation technique he had formulated into Red Cat's consciousness through the way of demon technique.
If it were to be a Demon Clan but doesn't know how to transform, remaining in beast form would fall short of the impression of a Demon Clan.
Red Cat pondered this - transformation?
It looked back on the time when it stood upright like a human, hugging Zhu Xingzheng. The idea of transforming, boasting a mighty tiger head with rippled muscles, and waving Zhu Xingzheng in one big hand seemed quite domineering.
Moreover, the martial arts for demons would be different after transformation, capable of performing the same martial skills and cultivation techniques as martial artists.
"Meow!"
Red Cat nodded, it must transform!
"Master, I think Red Cat is cuter the way it is now. It won't be cute anymore after transformation," giggled Su Lingxiu.
"Meow, meow!" Red Cat hurriedly indicated that it would always be this cute and would only transform outside.
Li Xuan burst into helpless laughter. Red Cat was clever enough to understand how to get better treatment!
The flying boat was drifting in Heavenly Mausoleum State, and Red Cat had the Demon Clan collect plenty of spiritual medicine. Just before leaving Heavenly Mausoleum State, Su Lingxiu gave Red Cat a bundle of spiritual medicines.
With these spiritual medicines, the strength of the Demon Clan would further enhance.
And Red Cat began to cultivate the talented individuals of the Demon Clan, training its own disciples.
"Let's head to Yunshan State."
Su Lingxiu suggested.
Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao were at the Taimiao Sect in Yunshan State, a perfect opportunity for a reunion.
The flying boat travelled to Yunshan State, descending outside the nearest major city to the Taimiao Sect. Once the news reached the Taimiao Sect, Du Yuying and Yun Miaomiao left the sect to visit the Chang Qing Pavilion.
Cui'er and Wushuang were naturally present too.
Old acquaintances reunited, and a round of catching up was inevitable. Li Xuan also enhanced the power of the Jade Talisman they had initially received by infusing it with a divine skill.
Time, like flowing water, waits for no one.
The competition amongst prodigies had entered its final stage and the Spirit Realm prodigy list was already claiming spots.
Xu Yan, Meng Chong, Fang Hao, and Su Lingxiu had secured the top four positions.
On the day the list was established, Su Lingxiu defeated the original fourth-placed prodigy, replacing their spot.
Aside from this prodigy list, core disciples of the Transcendent Spirit Sect did not appear.
Although they were not included, they also had the qualification to participate in the finals. This was the privilege of the Transcendent Spirit Sect, and no one could challenge it.
The location of the showdown for the prodigy competition was finalized, it was to be in Hongzhou.
Hongzhou, another maritime state, was linked to the Azure Sea, just like Mist State. It was the traditional venue for the decisive battle for the prodigy spots among the various Spirit Sects.
The top 100 from this prodigy competition will earn a spot, plus an opportunity.
The nature of this opportunity and the exact use of the spots were not disclosed by any of the several transcendent spirit sects.
In three months, the day of the showdown for the prodigy competition was set to begin.
Prodigies from all directions, the powerhouses of the Spirit Realm, all began to gather in Hongzhou.
The entire Spiritual Realm Martial Way World was drawn to the final showdown of the prodigy competition. This round had no prodigy from the Ice State, and this was overlooked by many.
The Transcendent Spirit Sect, due to the matters of the All Ages Alliance, naturally couldn't manage too much. Other Spirit Sects also did not pay much attention to this.
The upheaval that had occurred in the Ice State went unnoticed.
A crisis was silently on its way.
