When Ji Wen came back from morning hunt, he saw Ji Yen standing outside the cave tunnel.
He slowly landed in front Ji Yen and looked at him with a questioning look.
Seeing his face, Ji Yen said. "We are leaving this place. Many humans will come looking for the tree and they will also try to find us."
Saying that, he walked passed Ji Wen.
Then he stopped just about 2 meters away and without looking back. "Follow me."
With that, he flapped his wings and flew in the air.
Ji Wen turned to look at the entrance of the cave for sometime. Then he also flew in the air and followed Ji Yen.
As they both flewin the air, none of them talked about anything. And Ji Wen also did not asked where they were going. Because he was familiar with the direction.
They were heading straight for the demon monkey's territory.
After some minutes of flying, the territory of the demon monkey appeared in front of their eyes.
But when they were about to enter the territory, Ji Yen smelled a strong sense of odor.
He also felt a sense of oppression.
So instead of entering the territory, Ji Yen and Ji Wen both landed at the edge.
From the smell and the sense of oppression, Ji Yen knew some other demon beast had occupied the territory of the demon monkey.
And that demon beast is most likely a strong demon beast at that. About to reach the Grade 2 demon beast realm. Maybe slightly stronger than Ji Yen.
That make Ji Yen hesitated a little, to enter the territory.
It was not that he is afraid of danger, he just did not want to take unnecessary risk.
After giving it some thought, he decided to atleast check out the demon beast.
So, after asking Ji Wen to be careful, he left him there and went intocthe territory alone.
As he kept closing to the center of the territory, he felt a dangerous yet familiar aura.
He was somewhat puzzled by it. He does not know anyone stronger than him. So how could the dangerous aura be familiar to him.
With that question is his mind, he kept on flying towards the center.
When he was about 300 meters away from the centre, he saw a large demon beast laying below the giant tree. It was the same giant tree, the monkey used to use it as a home.
Seeing the huge demon beast, he understood why he felt the familiar aura.
That large demon beast is the terrifying tiger he saw that night. It became even larger than before.
Now the size of the tiger is about 3 meters long and 2 meters tall.
At the same time, the tiger laying below the tree opened its eyes with a snap.
The tiger turned its head towards the flying Ji Yen and roared a warning sound, still in its sitting position.
The roar made the whole forest went quiet.
Ji Yen knew he could not defeat the tiger alone, so he decided to turned around and head back.
However, a message popped up in front of his eyes.
[Ding! The system has detected a treasure that can turn demon beast into human.]
Looking at the message, Ji Yen absurdly stopped in the mid air.
Without any delay, he asked the system. "Where!!?" in an excited tone.
[The system only detected a slight smell of the plant from the demon tiger ahead.]
Seeing that, Ji Yen knew it was impossible so for to fight the tiger alone. And he just could not talk to the tiger about it.
Who would just hand over a treasure.?
An idea suddenly came to his mind.
"What if I use the Qi? Maybe I can take down the tiger?!" Thinking of the Qi, Ji Yen decided to take a chance. Even if he could not defeat the tiger, running away from it will not be a problem for him.
So, he turned around again and headed for the tiger straight.
Seeing the stupid bird coming back again, without caring his warning. The demon tiger stood up and make a stand, ready to shred the bird in pieces.
It's eyes kept on looking at the oncoming bird with killing intent.
Even from afar distance, Ji Yen could feel the killing intent of the tiger. It sent down a chill in his spine.
But since he challenged the tiger first, he just could not back down from the fight.
He gritted his teeth and let out a sharp and loud hawk shrill sound, letting the tiger know that he is not backing down.
The sound of the bird made the tiger even more angry. He also let out a loud roar, directed to Ji Yen.
As he was approaching the tiger in a very sharp and fast speed, he opened the data of the tiger.
[Data.
Race: Heavy Mountain Tiger.
Name: None.
Rank: Mid Grade 2.
State: Enraged.
Realm: Half-step Grade 2.
Bloodline: None.
Abilities: Sonic attack, Mouth and Powerful paw with sharp claws.]
At first, Ji Yen thought the tiger must be like him, peak of the grade 1 demon beast realm.
He did not expect it tocbe a half-step Grade 2.
Not just slightly, but more powerful than peak grade 1 demon beast.
(Half-step Grade 2: Demon beast that attempted to breakthrough to grade 2 demon beast realm, but could reach the grade and stuck in between.)
And it was also Ji Yen's first time meeting someone with higher potential than him.
The data of the tiger made Ji Yen's face even more solemn. He knew his only chance is the Qi points. And he must use it wisely.
Checking the data of the demon tiger only took a moment.
As Ji Yen kept flying towards the tiger, the tiger also started heading towards Ji Yen with a powerful killing intent in his eyes.
When they were both about 50 meters apart from eachother, Ji Yen first released his powerful wind feather blades. A whole lot of them.
Shoosh....shoosh..,shoosh.....shoosh.....
The feather blades headed for the demon tiger, with the speed hard to see with naked eyes.
