Chapter 449 Fly
Chapter 449 Fly
Somewhere else, a Flying Demon Beast and a Man were having a fierce fight against each other. Fire and Thunder spread everywhere, and the scenario got scourged. Still, quite a few cultivators and demon beasts were looking at their match.
Finally, it reached a point where they couldn't keep going anymore, and they had to stop. Those two were none other than Arlan and Tasier. Because Tasier wasn't specialized in water laws and elements, he and Lofa ended going to different places. Arlan just so happened to be going to the same area, so the two traveled together.
At the moment, they are in a place in the central region of the Luvile Universe called the Warriors Den. The entire planet was entirely driven by the arenas that expended for kilometers. Several geniuses and adventures liked to come to this place to test their abilities. Arlan and Tasier just so happen to be two of them. As long as one was below the Void Breaking Realm, they were free to challenge anyone.
As for Arlan's fiance, that was a thing from the past. The two of them had already married, so now that she got a hold of him, she gave Arlan a little more space. Besides, she had her own training to do, which didn't follow Arlan's path.
In fact, Arlan and Tasier had just arrived a few days ago, so they are still getting used to the place.
After exiting the arena, Arlan couldn't help but ask Tasier.
"I'm happy that you also came with me and that we can challenge each other. But why didn't you go somewhere else more suitable to your Lightning Element and Laws?"
Tasier, already back to his human form, shrugged his shoulders.
"I was, I spent almost two years in the Diantal Planet where thunderstorms are constant. It helped with my laws and cultivation a lot. However, there weren't many cultivators or demon beasts there for me to challenge, so I got stuck. I need to get used to my new power, so I thought that coming to this place would be a good idea."
Arlan admitted that this place was perfect for gaining fight experience.
Arlan, just like Shinja, has a unique body constitution, the Pure Yang Body. Considering that he also has the Elemental Meridians, his cultivation speed wasn't any slower than her. He, too, was in the 4th Stage of the Soul Forging Realm. Before coming to this planet, Arlan went to one of the planets prepared by the Divine Path Sect to train his Fire Element and Laws.
He could have stayed there and foght the Sect members like Shinja's group. But it would always be a fight under a judge's eyes, and that was not what he wanted. That's why he came to this planet. Here, no one had to hold back, and no one would complain regardless of the outcome of the battle.
There was only one difference in this planet's arenas, their protection formations. They prevented both parties attack's from leaving the area, but not the cultivators and demon beasts themselves. So if necessary, one could always opt for running away. Once you are outside the arena, the battle was over.
Of course, it didn't stop the death toll from being quite big. After all, the cultivators and demon beasts wouldn't run unless they were sure they couldn't win. Besides, with every arena having several spectators, the cultivators and demon beasts' honor held them back as well.
As for Tasier, he is one step above Lofa, being in the 2nd Stage of the Soul Forging Realm.
Although Arlan and Tasier had just arrived, they caught the attention of quite a few cultivators and demon beasts. Of course, that was on purpose, they had been challenging each other to display their own abilities. That is because they are marked as outsiders. The cultivators and demon beasts of the central region would usually look down on those who came from other jurisdictions.
Tasier and Arlan knew that no one would take their challenges seriously. That's why they are using this way to prove them wrong.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to appear.
It turns out that it was another Lightning Element user. But different from Tasier, he was a cultivator.
"Hey, chicken! Aren't you being too cocky showing those miser abilities against your friend? What's the point in fighting a battle where both sides aren't trying to hurt each other?"
Arlan smiled and simply stepped back, this one had nothing to do with him.
In Tasier's case, his eyes shined. He knew that he had finally caught someone.
"Is that so? But where would I find a challenge? As far as I can see, there is no one around capable of taking me on. No, wait! Could it be that you are talking about yourself? That can't be, right? Hahahaha!"
The guy was a 3rd Stage Soul Forging Realm cultivator of the central region. He noticed that Tasier's laws were quite good while he fought Arlan. Still, he didn't put Tasier in his eyes. So he wanted to show Tasier in his place. But he didn't expect Tasier to be bold enough to say that in front of everyone.
"Hahaha! Good! You have guts, chicken. What about going into the arena to play with me?"
Tasier shook his head.
"No can do. I'm tired and used a lot of Spiritual Energy in my practice with my friend here a moment ago. But if you are not afraid enough of waiting for me to be at my peak, then I don't mind accepting it. Of course, if you think you can't deal with me like that, I will pretend that a fly came to bug me."
Suddenly, someone else held Tasier's shoulder. When tasier looked at who it is, he noticed that the other part's cultivation was much higher, probably at the Void Breaking Realm. The guy had a dark expression as if he wanted to Kill Tasier right now.
Tasier started to sweat cold. How did he offend this person, or better, Demon Beast in human form?
The guy then asked with a cold voice.
"So my Fly Race isn't capable of nothing more than bugging you, yea?"
Arlan immediately burst in laughter. There are insect demon beasts out there, so obviously there were some flys who also got lucky enough to be able to cultivate. But to think that Tasier would offend one of them this easily?
Tasier smiled bitterly.
"Cough, cough. That is my fault, brother. How about I pay you a meal, and we right this offense off, shall we?"
The guy shook his head, though.
"No, no! I want to show you how our fly race bugs others. Come on, let's enter one of the arenas. I promise it won't take long. I'll make sure to not bug you too much."
Tasier then looked at Arlan with pleading eyes. However, while still laughing, Arlan looked elsewhere and pretended to not know him.
Tasier, of course, felt like crying but had no tears.
"Wait, brother, its a misunderstanding."
The guy didn't mind Tasier's words, though.
"It's okay, it's okay. We flies love to bug others, you are not wrong at all."
The guy who challenged Tasier also didn't try to stop it.
Sometime later, Tasier was finally back. Of course, quite a few feathers were missing, it was as if he was stripped of them. In fact, he was!
Seeing Tasier's appearance, Arlan once again burst in laugher. Arlan knew that the Void breaking Realm guy of the Fly Race wouldn't really kill or cripple Tasier. After all, as someone with such a much higher cultivation, it would be disgraceful to do that against someone so much weaker than him. However, he was totally within his right to teach Tasier a lesson. That's why even the power protecting this place didn't intervene.
Tasier looked hatefully at Arlan.
"What if he really wanted to kill me? Would you really let me die?"
Arlan nodded.
"Of course! Do you think I would be able to stop a Void Breaking Realm Deamon Beast? Hahaha! You must be dreaming!"
Tasier then sat on the ground and begrudgingly swallowed a Healing Pill. There was really nothing that he or Arlan could have done. Still, receiving a beating in front of everyone, and such a shameful one was hard to accept.
'Good thing that he didn't know that I ate flies when I was a kid.'
Tasier is a Thunder Hawk, after all. An insect diet was also part of his daily life before gaining sentience at the 9th Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
