Chapter 113: Fifth Grade Magical Beasts

All the people of the Zhang Family became more alert after hearing what the middle-aged man and woman said. They all understood the consequences of revealing the timing or the location the treasure which is about to born.

The middle-aged man and woman looked at each other and nodded their heads in with a satisfied smile on their face after seeing the reaction of these people.

They never thought that what they were talking about was already heard by Ye Xiao. He was quite shocked when he heard them. He never thought that these big families will be this cunning.

The member of three big families are residing inside this Hundred Mountain Range for two more days.

Ye Xiao silently retreated back from where he was hiding. He did not wanted to reveal his whereabout at this time. If these people discovered him, they will surely guess that he heard all of their conversation. They will try their best to kill him after discovering him.

After retreating almost 300 meters from the members of the Zhang Family, Ye Xiao took a detour and again stated to walk further inside the forest of Hundred Mountain Range. 

He was nervous as well as excited at this time. He was nervous that he will be discovered by the members of the three big families and if this is to happen, the consequences will definitely be dire.

He was excited because he came to know when the treasure is going to born.

Two days later...

"Do you really think you can escape from me."

A young man shouted toward a big frog-type magical beast.

It was a Third Grade Magical Beast known as Jade Frog. It was very big, about 5 meters. But blood could be seen flowing out from various places of its body.

It was trying to flee from here but that young man has no intension of letting it escape.

"Wings of the Divine Dragon."

"Swoosh!"

"Sacred Finger Art."

Ye Xiao jumped up in the air and a very beautiful wings grew out from his back. With the help of his wings, Ye Xiao flew toward the head of the Jade Frog and attacked with his Sacred Finger Art.

His finger directly pierced into the head of the Jade Frog.

"Trrr!"

It let out its last screech and after that it lost its life.

Ye Xiao descended. The beautiful pair of wings vanished from his back. He walked toward the Jade Frog and placed his hands on it.

"Devour!"

Ye Xiao started to devour it and not long after the corpse of the Jade Frog turns into a dried-up corpse.

"Fourth Stage of Origin Core Realm."

"Finally, I am able to breakthrough." Ye Xiao took a long breath. He felt very excited at this moment. He came deep inside the forest of Hundred Mountain Range two days ago. He hunted down many Magical Beast and devoured them himself. He did not gave any of the corpse of magical beasts to Little Yellow because he knew that this time, he may encounter danger while searching for the treasure that is about to be born inside the Cloudsmoke Forest.

Because of this, he wanted to increase his own strength. He can help Little Yellow to evolve any other time.

After killing the magical beasts and devouring them, Ye Xiao was able to breakthrough to the Third Stage of the Origin Core Realm yesterday. But even after that, he did not rest even a little bit. He wanted to make use of these two days of time as much as he can because on the third day, he has to go to the Cloudsmoke Forest for the treasure.

But even after devouring many magical beasts, he was unable to breakthrough to the Fourth Stage of the Origin Core Realm. He was stuck at the Peak of the Third Stage but he still did not stopped killing and devouring and finally when at the end of the second day, he was able to make a breakthrough and became a martial artist at the Fourth Stage of the Origin Core Realm.

During these two days, he bumped into close to thirty Third Stage Magical Beasts but they all was easily taken care of by Ye Xiao.

"It is time to leave the Hundred Mountain Range and go to the Cloudsmoke Forest." Ye Xiao mumbled but just as he wanted to walk back, he heard noises coming from his left direction.

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!"

Ye Xiao looked ahead and realized that a large area of trees was shaking violently. The ground was also shaking, and trees were breaking and falling from time to time. It seemed like a huge battle was currently being fought.

Weather it was blessing or a curse, Ye Xiao decided to take a look. Curious, Ye Xiao slowed down his steps and walked forward step by step.

After he moved forward for about several dozens meters, his sharp eyes finally caught a glimpse of a gigantic magical beast in front of him.

It was a giant ape.

The giant ape's body was covered in the mixture of white and yellow fur. It was about ten meters feet tall. When it stepped lightly on the ground, it could make an entire region tremble. Its mouth was wide open and it could be seen how sharp its upper and lower teethes were. Its golden eyes released an extremely ruthless aura, making people feel terrified from deep down their bones.

As for its opponent who was facing it, it was actually also a gigantic magical beast known as Purple Flame Lion. It had two front paws on its chest, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. Its two large hind legs supported the ground, and its tail was about three feet long.

Ye Xiao recognized only Purple Flame Lion because of the memories of the Ancient Pill God. From these memories, he find out that this Purple Flame Lion will produce a Beast Flame after its death.

Ye Xiao already has a Beast Flame and he did not needed any more Beast Flames but he can still exchange it for something or he can also give it as a gift to someone.

But a full bucket of cold water was soon drawn on his head.

Both of these magical beasts were actually at the level where Ye Xiao could not see through them. They both gave him the same terrifying feeling as the middle-aged man and woman of the Zhang Family.

What does it mean?

It means that these both magical beasts are at the very least a Fifth Grade Magical Beast. Which means that they are equal to at least a human cultivator of Martial Emperor Realm. Ye Xiao was quite surprised as well as terrified after seeing them.

Seeing these magical beasts fighting among themselves, Ye Xiao silently watched them from side-lines. He did not dare to make a move. He was puzzled in his heart at this moment, wondering why the two Fifth Grade Magical Beast would fight so ferociously with each other here.

It has to be known that Ye Xiao came here while hunting down dozens of magical beasts in his way, but he never encountered even a Fourth Grade Magical Beasts along his way here, let alone a Fifth Grade Magical Beast.

But suddenly two Fifth Grade Magical Beasts appeared here out of nowhere and was still fighting with each other.

There were a few deep wounds on the chest of the white and yellow furred ape. Bloods were flowing out of those wounds without any sign of stopping. These wounds were obviously left behind by the sharp claws of the Purple Flame Lion.

The Purple Flame Lion was also not much better. It was also badly injured. One of its back legs was completely torn off by the white and yellow ape.

Ye Xiao was not able to understand why these two magical beasts were fighting here. They should be in much deeper inside the Hundred Mountain Range. Ye Xiao looked in that area carefully where these two magical beasts were fighting and soon his gaze swept across the grass near the two magical beasts. He suddenly discovered that there was a light blue coloured flower that was emitting a faint light which seemed to be extremely extraordinary.

Ye Xiao was far away from that flower as he feared that he would be discovered by these two Fifth Grade Magical Beast, and if this were to happen, his chances of returning alive from here would be extremely small.

Because of this, he was not able to see clearly what type of flower that light blue coloured flower actually is. He thought of moving forward and closing some distance between him and that light blue coloured flower but he immediately stopped himself as these two magical beasts in front of him were Fifth Grade Magical Beasts and he did dare to take risk. And these two magical beasts were also very close to the light blue coloured flower.
