A small smile spread on his lips.
Focusing his thoughts, Long Tian decided to give the bear a better environment. He began imagining air, water, earth, an ecosystem, geography, rules…
Instantly, the blank space around the bear began to change and the land began to develop. Like a small world being born, rivers, mountains, lakes, trees, grass… many things formed and the bear moved about naturally between these places.
Finishing his food, Long Tian began practicing once more. His golden eyes flickering about as he got to practicing the other forms and styles, bringing them to the master realm before going to the next.
Before he knew it, he had completed all major animals.
Bear, Eagle, Snake, Tiger, Dragon, Chicken, Horse, Swallow, Phoenix, Monkey, Roc, Elephant, Crane…
But he didn't stop there.
He only took an entire night to comprehend and master those styles. So he continued and began to create more styles based on other animals, normal and mythical.
Dog, Cat, Lion, Zebra, Hawk, Spider, Praying Mantis, Centipede, Mosquito…
He jumped from making all animals into a style before heading to the insects. From the insects, he finally headed to the aquatic creatures.
Blue Whale, Killer Whale, Carp, Mantis Shrimp, Shark, Turtle, Seal, Squid, Octopus, Electric Eel…
And in the end, he finally moved to the mythical beasts…
Qilin, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, Nine-Tailed Fox, Taotie, Pixiu, Qiongqi, Golden Crow, Jade Rabit, Fenghuang, KunPeng, Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, Yellow Dragon, Torch Dragon, Tanuki, Hydra…
As many as he could recall, Long Tian made styles and birthed life to this small world within his mind. He actively watched as they moved about and behaved.
By the third day, Long Tian had finally stepped out of the gym.
…
Back within God's Sanctuary, Long Tian noticed the different atmosphere within Steel Armor Shelter.
"What's going on?"
Weakening his presence, Long Tian joined the large crowd of people outside the shelter. He mingled between them and listened to their chatter.
"They found it!"
"The Sacred-Blood creature!"
"I heard that their previous raid was a failure, ending in the deaths of many within the gangs of Qin Xuan, Son of Heaven and Fist Guy's gangs."
"Right, this time they hired everyone who had mutant geno points. They aren't cutting corners this time."
"I was offered some money and flesh from the sacred-blood creature."
Hearing them, Long Tian figured out what was happening.
He left the crowd and headed to where he saw the large group of people in the distance. However, he soon stopped and frowned.
Turning, he headed somewhere else and went into the forest in the distance.
Entering it's shadows, Long Tian began moving about and heading to the area where everyone was at. Planning to watch and maybe attack from afar.
He was at a stone hill, west of Sunset Slope where everyone and the sacred-blood creature were located. Once there, Long Tian found Han Sen lurking there already.
Donned in a golden armor, Long Tian sneaked up behind Han Sen.
"Boo!"
Sha!
Reacting quickly, Han Sen pulled out his dagger but reacted in time to notice Long Tian. His dagger stopped an inch from Long Tian's face and he sighed.
"You… ha…"
With a weak smile, Han Sen drew back and sat back down.
"You surprised me."
"That was the point!"
Laughed Long Tian.
"Haha."
Han Sen laughed sarcastically.
Still, they both smiled in the end as they looked to the distance.
Their gazes landed on the sacred-blood creature, admiring its powerful might and large body close to three meters tall. With the head of a cow, upper body of a human, and the lower half of a horse, Long Tian looked at the strange cow-headed centaur.
In its large hands was a large and powerful golden double-edged axe. It pushed its way past many humans, mowing them down with its four horse legs and chopping down any who attempt to stop it in its track.
Coincidentally, its path was being blocked by a young man sitting on top of a triceratops mount. The cow-headed centaur raised its golden axe and swung it down at the man.
Calmly, the young man stepped on his mount and jumped away from it. Son of Heaven didn't dare to block the axe, allowing it to fall down on his mount and killing it, destroying his beast soul mount.
Han Sen and Long Tian watched as Son of Heaven frowned in pity at the sight of his mount being split in half.
Their eyes widened, seeing how easily the sacred-blood creature split a mutant creature, even if just a beast soul, so easily.
No one was able to stop the sacred-blood creature, watching as it mowed through thousands.
Fist Guy, Son of Heaven, and even Qin Xuan weren't able to do anything with how strong they are. They didn't even dare to do a frontal assault, only attacking from afar with bows and arrows.
This was a true Sacred-Blood creature, grand and mighty, not pitifully weak like the sacred-blood black beetle Han Sen had killed a couple days ago.
Nodding his head, Long Tian also knew the impressiveness of a true Sacred-blood creature.
'Could I keep one as a pet?'
Suddenly, a wild thought appeared in Long Tian's head.
A simple passing thought, a thought that he began to ponder about. From pondering, to dreaming, and from dreaming to desiring.
His golden eyes glowed as he looked at the cow-headed centaur plow through the people.
At his level of strength, keeping a sacred-blood creature as a pet will be difficult, but not impossible. He smiled and knew that he could accomplish it one day.
Suddenly, over at the raid, the cow-headed centaur finally broke out of the siege from the shelter. Not to mention that it's direction seems to be coincidentally be their direction.
Narrowing his eyes, Long Tian looked at Han Sen from the corner of his eyes.
'What is he? How is his 'luck' so strong like this?' Long Tian thought, a small frown forming on his face.
It was like the world was revolving around Han Sen, granting him opportunities and setbacks that will lead him to those opportunities.
…
"Fuck! It wants to escape!"
Son of Heaven roared in anger.
He waved his hand, summoning a green Eagle beast soul that turned into a green bow. It was a mutant beast soul, but that wasn't enough to deal damage to the sacred-blood creature. Which is why he summoned a giant six-winged wasp that turned into a fiery arrow.
Qin Xuan and Fist Guy's eyes widened as they noticed the beast soul. Their mouths widened in shock before exclaiming.
"A sacred-blood beast soul of a six-winged wasp!"
Previously, they had gone to a raid before with Son of Heaven, attacking a wasp nest and finally managing to kill the sacred-blood six-winged wasp. Son of Heaven had landed the killing blow on the six-winged wasp, granting him the rights to obtain its beast soul.
However, Qin Xuan and Fist Guy never imagined that Son of Heaven would truly attain its beast soul.
In all of Steel Armor Shelter, there are less than ten sacred-blood beast souls. Many left behind by those who have already evolved and gone to Second God's Sanctuary.
"Son of Heaven, wait! That's a one-time use beast soul! If you fail to-"
Luo Tianyang, Son of Heaven's lackey, failed to stop Son of Heaven.
Having already shot out the arrow, everyone watched as the arrow whistled through the air and arrived before the sacred-blood creature.
BOOM!
The moment the arrow made contact with the sacred-blood creature, an explosion occurred. The cow-headed centaur was struck and a large chunk of its flesh was blown away, falling to the floor.
It began to lose its vitality and even its organs was falling out of its body.
Son of Heaven smirked as he looked at the dying sacred-blood creature and yelled.
"Ha! Serves you right! How dare you kill my mount. There's no way I would let you live after doing that!"
Back in the stone hill, Long Tian acted quick.
Summoning his beast soul spear, he threw it to the sacred-blood creature's dying body. While he sent the killing shot, Han Sen ran out to retrieve the golden axe of the sacred-blood creature.
The spear flew out and struck the place that had already been blown open.
"Sacred-blood Bloody Slayer killed. Beast soul gain. Eat the flesh to gain 0 to 10 sacred-blood geno points."
The instant he received the notification in the back of his head, Long Tian traveled down the stone hill and ran towards Han Sen. he looked at the approaching people, rushing over to where Han Sen and the sacred-blood creature's corpse was.
He listened to the sanctuary's voice and listened for the details of the beast soul he gained.
"Type of sacred-blood - Bloody Slayer: Shapeshifting."
Smiling, Long Tian used the beast soul in an instant.
The bloody slayer jumped out from his sea of consciousness and into his body, changing it and increasing his size as well. His clothes disappeared as his body shapeshifter and turned into the large bloody slayer.
…
Son of Heaven and the rest watched as a copper light made it's way to the bloody slayer as a golden figure ran to it.
"Motherfucker!!"
Roaring in anger, Son of Heaven finally realized what had happened. He summoned another mount, a black wildebeast. Riding madly in Han Sen's direction, Son of Heaven raced to his location.
His gang ran behind him, joining him as they ran to Han Sen. They shouted and rebuked Han Sen, cursing him as they did so.
Qin Xuan and Fist Guy's gangs remained behind, watching as Son of Heaven ran out.
Holding the doubled-edged golden axe, Han Sen was struggling to lift it and drag it away. He wasn't expecting the golden axe to be so heavy. He was already stronger than before with five sacred-blood geno points, but even that wasn't enough.
He could barely walk, much less run.
Turning his head, he noticed Son of Heaven and his gang approaching rapidly. He began to panic. Even if he had a sacred-blood armor, his strength is weaker than theirs. If he were to be detained by them, he will surely suffer.
Bang!
Suddenly, Han Sen shook as he turned his head and looked at a large creature running at him madly. His heart thumped, but he soon noticed the peculiarity.
Long Tian!
With heavy footsteps, his hooves tore into the ground and his speed increased in an instant. At that moment, Long Tian's cow head smirked
Moo!
With a loud moo, Long Tian grabbed Han Sen and tossed him to his horse back before grabbing the double-edged golden axe.
Lifting it into the air, he turned and ran.
Galloping away with such incredible speed and force. Sitting on Long Tian's horse back, Han Sen was feeling shocked in his heart.
He compared Long Tian's running to the original bloody slayer, but found that Long Tian was faster.
It astounded him.
But it is to be expected, as Long Tian used Xingyiquan. He envisioned a stallion, galloping with powerful momentum and with great speed. It far outmatched the bloody slayer's original speed, and Long Tian was finally revealing the benefits of knowing martial arts.
His speed, already fast as a sacred-blood creature, had increased even more with the movement of a stallion!
His breathing and heart beat powerfully!
Dun! Dun! Dun!
Son of Heaven looked on in anger and shock as the bloody slayer and golden figure disappeared into the distance.
"FUUUCK!"
