A Holy Beast ?

After the fierce battle between the Golden Tiger magical beast and the hybrid T-Rex Godzilla, an eerie silence filled the atmosphere.

Asura's eyes fluttered open and he slowly regained consciousness. Scanning his surroundings, he realized Romeo and Juliet were nowhere to be seen - it seemed he had managed to escape from their clutches while he was unconscious. Though relieved they were gone, his body throbbed with intense pain.

"Why is my body in so much pain?" Asura groaned.

Of course, the pain was due to the aftereffects of tapping into his hidden strength. He hadn't felt it in the heat of battle, but using that power had placed a tremendous burden on his body, and its effect normally showed after the battle.

Last time, after defeating the puppets with his hidden strength, he had been totally exhausted. But the pain was fleeting since the injuries sustained in the Tricon's pseudo-life-and-death matches healed upon exiting hence, he didn't feel any pain after existing. That was the unique power of the Tricon.

As for the first time, Asura used his hidden strength during the time of the Crimson Cobera Syndicate accident, Su Lin's master helped him recover, which was why he didn't feel any pain when he woke up that time. If he had awakened at that time without drinking that medicine, he would have felt ten times more pain than he was currently feeling.

But this time, there was no such help. So, Asura only gritted his teeth and tried to adapt to the pain step by step. After half an hour of struggle, Asura had adapted to the pain, and now he could move his body freely.

Now, he observed his surroundings patiently. He discovered total destruction in the area and couldn't imagine the kind of power that could cause such extensive devastation.

Of course, he hadn't witnessed the battle between the golden tiger magical beast and the summoned creature. So, he guessed that the golden tiger magical beast had fought with Romeo and Juliet, forcing them to flee. During this process, the destruction occurred, but he didn't care about the details. Now he knew that his enemy was gone, and he could return to the Xiao sect to inform them about the impending invasion of the Hell Kingdom, which was going to happen in one month, or maybe even sooner.

As he was about to leave, he looked at the golden tiger magical beast, who was sleeping and recovering from the previous fight.

Asura gazed at the magical beast and whispered, "So, this is the rumored Rank 6 magical beast. Truly, it can't be compared to a Rank 5 magical beast. Even while sleeping, the pressure alone would frighten other lower magical beasts from coming near."

Asura also sensed some kind of special pressure from this magical beast but didn't know what was special about this golden tiger. He thought, "Maybe this is the first time I've encountered a Rank six magical beast, which is why I feel its pressure is unique."

After that, he used a healing talisman on the golden tiger and said, "You unintentionally helped me overcome a crisis. At least I can help you recover faster."

The healing talisman he used on the golden tiger had been made by Xie Ling for him in an emergency situation. She knew it would be hard for his big brother to avoid a fight, and there was always a chance he could get severely injured. If Asura's medical pills ran out, he could use this talisman instead. He had only one of these talismans, but he thought the golden tiger needed it more because he could see that the injuries on the golden tiger were serious, and it would take a long time to heal normally. With the use of this talisman, he could recover quickly.

After that, he left the core region of the Dark Forest. The golden tiger, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened its eyes and looked at Asura, who was almost leaving the core region of the Dark Forest. Surprisingly, the Golden tiger said with a melodic but dominating voice, "This human has some conscience. He is also able to sense my divine presence even though I am hiding it from any other beings. Looks like not killing him was a good choice " After saying this much, she closed her eyes again.

It turns out that the golden tiger magical beast was not an ordinary magical beast. A magical beast that can talk means that it was at least a holy beast, if not a legendary divine beast.

The most shocking thing was that the golden tiger said this with a female voice, which meant she was clearly a female. Asura thought she was a male, and, more surprisingly, she could talk. If Asura were here, he would have had a little heart attack.

After reaching the Xiao sect, the first thing Asura did was to find the headmaster of the Xiao sect. because only the headmaster could control this type of situation.

When Asura reached the headmaster's chamber, he informed the guard that he had an urgent matter to tell the headmaster. The guard instructed him to wait and then went to inform the principal. After a short while, the guard returned and gestured for Asura to enter the headmaster's chamber.

Upon entering, Asura saw the headmaster sitting behind a grand desk. The headmaster smiled at him and said, "Please, have a seat. It's rare for someone like you who lives most of the time out of the Xiao sect to come seeking me. What urgent matter do you wish to tell?"

Asura proceeded to share his harrowing experience in the Dark Forest. He explained how he had ventured deep into the forest to train and had encountered Romeo and Juliet. Although Asura didn't know the specific kingdom they hailed from, the direction they had come from indicated that the Hell Kingdom was a likely origin. He emphasized that the chances of the Hell Kingdom launching an attack within a month were quite high.

Furthermore, he recounted his narrow escape from Romeo and Juliet's clutches, attributing his survival to the accidental intrusion into the territory of the rumored Rank 6 magical beast residing in the core of the Dark Forest.
