Chapter 100: Fighting Ancient Creatures, Xiaoyao Realm Level One!

"Dragon-Tiger? What Dragon-Tiger?"

Lu Chuan listened to the Yellow Wind Rat's report, a wave of confusion rising in his heart.

Seeing the Yellow Wind Rat unusually agitated, he smiled meaningfully, "Don't tell me, this so-called Dragon-Tiger was brought here by you?"

"Great... Great King, my loyalty to you is as clear as the sun and moon, you can't do this to me!"

"I..."

"Enough, I didn't say I was going to do anything to you!"

Lu Chuan interrupted the Yellow Wind Rat's expression of loyalty and ordered, "Lead the way; I want to see exactly what this Dragon-Tiger is."

"Yes, Great King!"

Before long, under the guidance of the Yellow Wind Rat, Lu Chuan saw the Dragon-Tiger.

It was a giant tiger, fifty or sixty meters long, with a mottled coat, a pair of dragon horns on its head, and dragon whiskers at the corners of its mouth.

The tiger's ability to fly in the air without using any powers made Lu Chuan feel a wave of envy, "This guy is truly... like a dragon and like a tiger; no wonder the Yellow Wind Rat calls it a Dragon-Tiger."

"However, isn't this guy a Bi'an?"

"This guy does indeed have the bloodline of the dragon race; no wonder it can fly at will."

As Lu Chuan sized it up, the Bi'an opposite him was also sizing him up.

A moment later, the Bi'an spoke in human language, "Are you the king of this mountain range?"

"That's right."

Hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded slightly, a look of inquiry appearing in his eyes, "You came here because..."

"Naturally, to replace you and become the new king of this mountain range!"

The Bi'an looked arrogant, having already assumed a combat stance, "Come, let us have a battle; the winner can take everything from the loser."

"You think I'm afraid of you?"

In an instant, Lu Chuan let out a roar and charged directly toward the Bi'an, while bolts of heavenly lightning fell instantly above his head.

"Good!"

"I didn't expect you to know lightning techniques; I truly underestimated you."

"However, you are still no match for me!"

Seeing the heavenly lightning, the Bi'an did not retreat but advanced instead, intending to withstand the thunder with its physical body.

Rumble—

Amidst the loud noise, the Bi'an's body sank violently, but it quickly returned to its original position and swiped a claw at Lu Chuan! It had truly withstood the power of the lightning without suffering a single injury.

Bang! In the sky, Lu Chuan slammed into it, sending it flying, his eyes full of surprise, "This guy really has some genuine skills; no wonder it dared to come and pick a fight."

"However... I'm not afraid of you!"

Following that, he consecutively unleashed abilities like 【Corrosive Venom】 to deal with the Bi'an with all his might, which actually left the latter in a flurry.

Boom—

Just a quarter of an hour later, Lu Chuan's massive body was tightly coiled around the Bi'an, a huge tongue facing it, "Now, what else do you have to say?"

"I..."

The Bi'an never expected that a giant snake could not only spray venom but also burrow, use 【Invisibility】, change size, and possess a whole host of other methods.

Although it could avoid some of them, it still felt alarmed by Lu Chuan's unpredictable attack methods, "I surrender!"

"Hmph!"

Lu Chuan let out a cold snort, his body increasing its strength, while he opened his blood-red maw, preparing to devour the Bi'an. This made the latter tremble with fear, "I've already surrendered, what else do you want?"

"Just now, you were the one who said the winner could take everything from the loser; this 'everything'... naturally includes the loser's life."

Crack—

As his voice fell, he bit off the Bi'an's head in one gulp and then quickly devoured its body.

【Ding!】

【Congratulations to the host for a successful consumption, obtained 200 points of Evolution Value!】

"Not bad, not bad; the Evolution Value brought by these ancient creatures is getting higher and higher, saving me from having to keep hunting the beasts of the current age."

Ever since he first discovered that devouring ancient creatures brought more Evolution Value, Lu Chuan had kept them in mind, and now he was even more satisfied with the Bi'an, "If I devour more of these ancient creatures, my growth speed will be even faster in the future."

"Sigh, I should have asked if it knew the whereabouts of other ancient beasts."

In the following period, Lu Chuan took the initiative to go out and specifically hunt for those ancient creatures that had appeared.

In the Qinling Mountains, a large number of Kongjianliefeng had already appeared; after they merged with the current world, the ancient creatures within them also entered, though most had quietly hidden themselves.

At first, Lu Chuan held to the philosophy of 'if people don't offend me, I won't offend them' and turned a blind eye to them, but now with the Bi'an as a precedent, he felt he couldn't waste these excellent rations for nothing.

Therefore, after devouring and digesting the Bi'an, he directly ordered the willow tree, "Xiaoliu, keep a close watch on the traces of all kinds of ancient creatures; once you discover them, report to me immediately."

"Yes, Boss!"

With the help of the willow tree, Lu Chuan's speed in tracking ancient creatures became much faster.

In just three days, he had devoured dozens of ancient creatures; among them were naturally others like the Bi'an, but none were his match.

Unknowingly, Lu Chuan had already broken through the ninth stage of the Shackle Realm and successfully reached the first level of the Xiaoyao Realm.

At this moment, Lu Chuan was hovering in mid-air, his expression very joyful, "Not bad, not bad; no wonder this level is called Xiaoyao!"

"Flying in the sky is the most obvious characteristic of Xiaoyao, and now I have this ability too."

With a slight movement of his mind, Lu Chuan flew directly forward, and his speed was extremely fast.

During this period, he did not use abilities like 【Gravity Control】 for assistance; it was a brand-new ability obtained after reaching the first level of the Xiaoyao Realm, "With this, where in the world can I not go?"

"However, 【Gravity Control】 is not completely useless."

Lu Chuan thought for a moment and still applied the 【Gravity Control】 ability to himself; his flight speed was indeed much faster, and he was more agile.

This made his heart overflow with joy, "I can finally truly fly."

"Xiaoqing, let's go, I'll take you around to look at the surroundings!"

While Lu Chuan was happy, he directly called for Xiaoqing and took her flying through the sky, naturally drawing a series of gasps and admiration from her.

He flew in the sky for several full hours, and only when he felt a bit tired did he slowly stop.

At this moment, Lu Chuan discovered with surprise that although he had been flying in the sky for so long, the spiritual power within his body had not been consumed much.

"Having stayed at home for so long, it is time to go out and take a look."

Looking at his Snake King Palace which had become increasingly magnificent, with all his underlings performing their respective duties and everything in perfect order, and with no powerful ancient creatures in the Qinling Mountains to worry about, Lu Chuan developed the thought of leaving the Qinling Mountains to walk around in the outside world.

However, for this trip out, he was still struggling with whether to go alone or bring a few underlings along.

"Forget it, I'll bring them next time."

After some thought, Lu Chuan decided to leave alone, "The great change in heaven and earth has only just ended, and I don't know what has happened in the outside world; I'm afraid it would be inconvenient to move about if I bring them."

"I will explore and clarify things first before deciding."
