Vol.2-Chapter 147 – Blue Thunder Rage Lion

After leaving the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect, Zhao Jiuge felt an inexplicable sense of happiness. There was rarely a chance to leave the sect aside from doing missions. Even then, they would still only be within the area controlled by the sect.

He enjoyed the picturesque scenery around him and felt more relaxed. After their playful pursuit, they were now flying next to each other.

The breeze caused their hair to flutter and a trail of light followed their flying swords.

Zhao Jiuge suddenly asked Bai Qingqing, filled with curiosity, “Qingqing, do you think a phenomenon can really appear when someone reaches the Spirit Core Realm?”

As Zhao Jiuge’s cultivation level had increased, he was about to face the task of forming his spirit core. He had read some information about forming one’s spirit core, and this made Zhao Jiuge curious. He wondered what forming one’s spirit core was like.

“Some do; however, very few people can trigger a phenomenon. Besides, just triggering a pheromone doesn’t mean that their path will be smooth in the future. Many geniuses that trigger a phenomenon still fall in the end,” Bai Qingqing answered affirmatively like she knew a lot about forming one’s spirit core.

Seeing Zhao Jiuge’s worried look, Bai Qingqing comforted him, “This is not something you should worry about, as you can no longer change your cultivation method. Everything is already set, so even if you don’t trigger a phenomenon, you shouldn\'t be discouraged. After all, everything must be obtained by your own power. As long as you don’t give up, it\'s fine.”

“Hmmm.” Zhao Jiuge nodded heavily. Since he could not understand it, then he simply wouldn’t think about it. He should deal with the matter at hand first.

The Profound Thunder Canyon was located northeast of the sect. The two of them did not fly at full speed but instead at a leisurely pace. This was because they had to maintain a certain amount of spirit force.

Seeing how absentminded Zhao Jiuge was, Bai Qingqing still felt a bit worried and reassured him, “When you’re about to make a breakthrough to the Spirit Core Realm, there will naturally be an elder from the sect who will guide you.”

After Zhao Jiuge heard this, he felt some doubt in his mind and suddenly asked, “You have been at the late stage of the Foundation Realm for so long, shouldn’t you be condensing your Spirit Core soon?”

Bai Qingqing suddenly sneered and revealed a mocking smile. “If I wanted to condense my spirit core, I could have done it at any time. I simply have not finished preparing yet.”

If she wanted to condense her spirit core, she could have done it a long time ago, but she didn’t want to condense her spirit core here. After all, this was no small matter, and she could not stay at the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect forever. If not for the situation at home, she would have never come to the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect. Now that the situation should have been resolved, it was about time for her to leave.

Both of them were silently thinking about their own matters, so only the hums from their flying swords could be heard.

It would only take them five days if they move at full speed, but due the problem with using all their spirit force outside, they took nine days to reach the edge of the Profound Thunder Canyon.

Along the way, aside from resting to recover during the night, they didn’t waste time watching the scenery. They headed straight for the Profound Thunder Canyon.

The two of them were somewhat haggard as they flew through the sky on their flying swords. As they looked down at the canyon below, it was not small but also not too big.

A large ravine lay before them. Both sides were rocky land with a river cutting it in half. Both sides were flat, and the center was where the canyon was.

There were many strange rocks covered in exotic flowers and dense jungle on both sides of the canyon. This gave the desolate canyon a breath of life.

Blue sky, white clouds, flowing river, strange rocks, yellow sand, and green jungle formed this scenic canyon.

Right now, they could only see the surface of the canyon. As for what was inside, they would have to head inside to see.

After observing the canyon, the two of them put away their flying swords and entered. They followed the slow-flowing river. It was not large and the flow of water was not very fast.

The Blue Thunder Rage Lion was not the only spirit beast in this canyon; there were many other spirit beasts. However, due to its location, there weren’t many powerful spirit beasts here. At most, they were only at the late stage of the Foundation Realm like the lion. Otherwise, the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect wouldn’t allow their disciples to come here to carry out the mission.

A sudden roar came from the distance, sounding hysterical. Zhao Jiuge and Bai Qingqing felt the earth tremble, and the roar was very harsh to the ears.

Rocks fell from the side of the canyon and the trees all trembled, making the leaves shake.

Zhao Jiuge and Bai Qingqing were both shocked. They looked at each other.

“Could it be the Blue Thunder Rage Lion?” Zhao Jiuge was a bit surprised. They had just entered the canyon and already found traces of the Blue Thunder Rage Lion. What kind of coincidence was that?

From the commotion, it seemed like the Blue Thunder Rage Lion was not far away from them. However, just that roar had shocked their hearts, and the commotion it created showed how powerful it was.

Bai Qingqing’s beautiful eyes changed slightly. She didn’t expect a late stage Foundation Realm Blue Thunder Rage Lion to be so strong. Originally, she thought it would be an easy mission, but it seemed like this mission would have a certain amount of difficulty.

Bai Qingqing nodded and whispered, “Yes, it looks like the Blue Thunder Rage Lion. The record said that there wasn’t any other powerful spirit beast here and that the Blue Thunder Rage Lion seems to have gone crazy lately.”

“There is no love for no reason and no hate for no reason. What do you think is the reason that the Blue Thunder Rage Lion has become crazy like this?” Zhao Jiuge had regained his composure from the original shock.

Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes. “You ask me, but how should I know?”

Zhao Jiuge looked at Bai Qingqing and asked, “Then, what should we do?”

After pondering a bit, Bai Qingqing whispered, “Hide your aura, we’ll go check out the situation. From that roar just now, it should not be far away.”

The two of them carefully walked forward with their guard up. This was not comfortable like the sect, danger was everywhere. Life or death was decided in an instant, and if they were not careful, they might lose their lives.

Zhao Jiuge was somewhat nervous, but there was also a strange sense of excitement.

They didn’t move forward much before they saw something in the middle of the canyon that shocked Zhao Jiuge greatly. This was not the first time he had seen a spirit beast, but the Blue Thunder Rage Lion still shocked him greatly.

It was close to three meters tall and its large body gave off a ferocious feeling. Then Zhao Jiuge began to carefully observe its appearance.

Its torso was blue, with specks of spirit light. Its limbs were snow-white and only its torso was blue. The blue fur looked like a piece of armor.

Each of its four paws were about the size of Zhao Jiuge’s head and its claws were curved downward. Each claw gave off a cold light, and just looking at it would make you feel a chill in your heart.

Its head was ferocious and its eyes were scarlet. It looked similar to a normal lion, but there was a silver horn about ? of a meter long on its head.

At this moment, the Blue Thunder Rage Lion seemed to have gone crazy. Spirit force surged out from its body and a powerful pressure spread out. It was partially lying on the ground, and a low growl came from its mouth.

The dust on the ground kept being kicked up and it\'s fur was stained with dust. As it continued to roar, the surface of the river nearby trembled with it.

Closing in on the Blue Thunder Rage Lion, Zhao Jiuge felt the pressure from it, and it made his heart tremble a little.

“It looks like this Blue Thunder Rage Lion really seems to be a bit odd. It\'s going crazy on its own, kind of like a certain someone else going crazy.” Zhao Jiuge lowered his head next to Bai Qingqing, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

“What did you say?” Bai Qingqing stared at Zhao Jiuge with a threatening expression. It seemed like she was going to punish Zhao Jiuge at any moment.

Zhao Jiuge chuckled and dodged to the side, away from Bai Qingqing.

When the two of them were whispering to each other, the Blue Thunder Rage Lion that was going crazy suddenly stopped. It turned its head and its scarlet eyes looked toward the direction of the two of them.

Accompanying a deafening roar, a late stage Foundation Realm pressure surged toward the two of them. It looked like the Blue Thunder Rage Lion had noticed the two of them!

At this moment, Zhao Jiuge’s smile disappeared and his expression changed greatly.

Two auras suddenly spread out, and both of auras also had the power of the late stage of the Foundation Realm. It was Zhao Jiuge and Bai Qingqing releasing their spirit force.

Seeing that they had been found by the Blue Thunder Rage Lion, Zhao Jiuge subconsciously held the Big-Dipper Sword in his hand.

The Big-Dipper Sword shined brightly and continued to buzz. Zhao Jiuge’s aura continued to rise, and soon it was not much weaker than the Blue Thunder Rage Lion’s aura.

Although Bai Qingqing surged her spirit force, she didn’t take out her Wind Flower Sword. Instead, she looked at the crazy Blue Thunder Rage Lion coldly.

After reaching the Foundation Realm, the Blue Thunder Rage Lion had gained a certain amount of intelligence. It didn’t expect these two small humans to be able to release auras no weaker than its own.

Its ferocious expression revealed that it was pondering. Its roars from before disappeared and turned into a low growl. It seemed to be hesitating and thinking of something.

“What should we do? Do we run or just do it?” Zhao Jiuge was completely focused on the Blue Thunder Rage Lion. He had been mobilizing the spirit force in his body in case of a sudden attack.

“Watch your words!” Bai Qingqing helplessly reprimanded him. However, the situation didn’t give them much time to think. She playfully yelled, “Let’s do it!”

Just when the two of them were going to make a move, the Blue Thunder Rage Lion seemed to be enraged by their dismissive attitude. It changed its mind and charged toward the two of them.
